CVE-2021-29647

Se ha descubierto un problema en el kernel de Linux en versiones anteriores a la 5.11.11. qrtr_recvmsg en net/qrtr/qrtr.c permite a los atacantes obtener información sensible de la memoria del kernel debido a una estructura de datos parcialmente no inicializada, también se conoce como CID-50535249f624.

Ryota Shiga discovered that the eBPF implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly verify that a BPF program only reserved as much memory for a ring buffer as was allocated. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. Manfred Paul discovered that the eBPF implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly track bounds on bitwise operations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. Various other issues were also addressed.
