CVE-2018-20784

Описание

In the Linux kernel before 4.20.2, kernel/sched/fair.c mishandles leaf cfs_rq's, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop in update_blocked_averages) or possibly have unspecified other impact by inducing a high load.

The CFS Linux kernel scheduler mishandles handling of leaf cfs_rq's in the kernel/sched/fair.c code, which allows a local unprivileged attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) by entering an infinite loop in update_blocked_averages() function by inducing a high load on a system. Due to the nature of the flaw, a remote network attack (by initiating a magnitude of remote requests) cannot be fully ruled out.
