CVE-2022-2503 – Linux Kernel LoadPin bypass via dm-verity table reload
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2022-2503
12 Aug 2022 — Dm-verity is used for extending root-of-trust to root filesystems. LoadPin builds on this property to restrict module/firmware loads to just the trusted root filesystem. Device-mapper table reloads currently allow users with root privileges to switch out the target with an equivalent dm-linear target and bypass verification till reboot. This allows root to bypass LoadPin and can be used to load untrusted and unverified kernel modules and firmware, which implies arbitrary kernel execution and persistence for... • https://github.com/google/security-research/security/advisories/GHSA-6vq3-w69p-w63m • CWE-287: Improper Authentication CWE-288: Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel CWE-302: Authentication Bypass by Assumed-Immutable Data •
