CVE-2024-28115 – Privilege Escalation in FreeRTOS Kernel ARMv7-M MPU ports and ARMv8-M ports with MPU support enabled

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2024-28115

07 Mar 2024 — FreeRTOS is a real-time operating system for microcontrollers. FreeRTOS Kernel versions through 10.6.1 do not sufficiently protect against local privilege escalation via Return Oriented Programming techniques should a vulnerability exist that allows code injection and execution. These issues affect ARMv7-M MPU ports, and ARMv8-M ports with Memory Protected Unit (MPU) support enabled (i.e. `configENABLE_MPU` set to 1). These issues are fixed in version 10.6.2 with a new MPU wrapper. • https://github.com/FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS-Kernel/releases/tag/V10.6.2 • CWE-284: Improper Access Control •
