Descriptions

The Linux kernel through 5.0.7, when CONFIG_IA32_AOUT is enabled and ia32_aout is loaded, allows local users to bypass ASLR on setuid a.out programs (if any exist) because install_exec_creds() is called too late in load_aout_binary() in fs/binfmt_aout.c, and thus the ptrace_may_access() check has a race condition when reading /proc/pid/stat. NOTE: the software maintainer disputes that this is a vulnerability because ASLR for a.out format executables has never been supported

** EN DISPUTA ** En el kernel de Linux hasta de la versión 5.0.7, cuando CONFIG_IA32_AOUT está habilitado y ia32_aout está cargado, permite a los usuarios locales omitir ASLR en programas setuid a.out (si existe) porque install_exec_creds() es llamado demasiado tarde en load_aout_binary() en fs/binfmt_aout .c, y por lo tanto la comprobación ptrace_may_access() tiene una condición de carrera cuando se lee /proc/pid/stat. NOTA: el mantenedor de software discute que se trate de una vulnerabilidad porque ASLR para un archivo ejecutable de formato nunca fue compatible.
