CVE-2024-26920

En el kernel de Linux, se resolvió la siguiente vulnerabilidad: rastreo/activador: Corrección para devolver error si no se pudo asignar la instantánea. Corrección de Register_snapshot_trigger() para devolver código de error si no se pudo asignar una instantánea en lugar de 0 (éxito). A menos que eso, registrará la activación de la instantánea sin error.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tracing/trigger: Fix to return error if failed to alloc snapshot Fix register_snapshot_trigger() to return error code if it failed to allocate a snapshot instead of 0 (success). Unless that, it will register snapshot trigger without an error.

It was discovered that the Open vSwitch implementation in the Linux kernel could overflow its stack during recursive action operations under certain conditions. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Sander Wiebing, Alvise de Faveri Tron, Herbert Bos, and Cristiano Giuffrida discovered that the Linux kernel mitigations for the initial Branch History Injection vulnerability were insufficient for Intel processors. A local attacker could potentially use this to expose sensitive information.
