UBUNTU-CVE-2024-49975: Medium severity ubuntu/linux vulnerability

Q: What level of access would an attacker need?

The vulnerability is locally exploitable and requires high privileges. No user interaction is required.

Q: Which Ubuntu kernel package families are in scope?

The affected software list includes ubuntu/linux, ubuntu/linux-fips, ubuntu/linux-aws, ubuntu/linux-azure, ubuntu/linux-gcp, and the AWS, Azure, and GCP FIPS kernel variants.

Q: What is the potential impact?

The issue can disclose kernel information through an uninitialized page mapped into userspace by the uprobes XOL area. The provided vector rates confidentiality impact as low and does not indicate integrity or availability impact.

Published Oct 21, 2024

Updated

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: uprobes: fix kernel info leak via "[uprobes]" vma xoladdvma() maps the uninitialized page allocated by createxolarea() into userspace. On some architectures (x86) this memory is readable even without VMREAD, VMEXEC results in the same pgprott as VMEXEC|VMREAD, although this doesn't really matter, debugger can read this memory anyway.
