No capability in the initial user namespace is required.\nUI:N - The attacker can create and operate the FUSE mount, invalidate the registered buffers, and submit subsequent commands without action by another user.\nS:U - Exploitation compromises the host kernel, which is the same security authority in which the vulnerable code executes.\nC:H - The dangling processing-list entry produces a kernel use-after-free whose reclaimed object can be manipulated to disclose arbitrary kernel memory.\nI:H - Deleting or moving the stale list node performs writes through freed or attacker-influenced list pointers, enabling kernel heap corruption and potential control-flow hijacking.\nA:H - The corrupted list and freed request can cause invalid kernel accesses, infinite traversal under a spinlock, an oops, or a kernel panic." } ] } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "fs/fuse/dev_uring.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "c090c8abae4b6b77a1bee116aa6c385456ebef96", "lessThan": "a6d1f1ace16d0e777a85f84267160052d3499b6e", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "c090c8abae4b6b77a1bee116aa6c385456ebef96", "lessThan": "95c39eef7c2b666026c69ab5b30471da94ea2874", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" } ] }, { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "fs/fuse/dev_uring.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "6.14", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "6.14", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.18.3", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.19", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix" } ] } ], "cpeApplicability": [ { "nodes": [ { "operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [ { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.14", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.3" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.14", "versionEndExcluding": "6.19" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a6d1f1ace16d0e777a85f84267160052d3499b6e" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/95c39eef7c2b666026c69ab5b30471da94ea2874" } ], "title": "fuse: fix io-uring list corruption for terminated non-committed requests", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } } } }
