Descriptions

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's vfio interface implementation that permits violation of the user's locked memory limit. If a device is bound to a vfio driver, such as vfio-pci, and the local attacker is administratively granted ownership of the device, it may cause a system memory exhaustion and thus a denial of service (DoS). Versions 3.10, 4.14 and 4.18 are vulnerable.

Se encontró un fallo en la implementación de la interfaz vfio del kernel de Linux que permite la violación del límite de memoria bloqueada del usuario. Si un dispositivo está vinculado a un controlador vfio, como vfio-pci, y al atacante local se le otorga la propiedad del dispositivo, puede provocar un agotamiento de la memoria del sistema y, por lo tanto, una Denegación de Servicio( DoS) (DoS). Las versiones 3.10, versión 4.14 y versión 4.18 son vulnerables.
