Описание
In the Linux kernel before 5.3.4, a reference count usage error in the fib6_rule_suppress() function in the fib6 suppression feature of net/ipv6/fib6_rules.c, when handling the FIB_LOOKUP_NOREF flag, can be exploited by a local attacker to corrupt memory, aka CID-ca7a03c41753.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s IPv6 routing system. A local attacker with the ability to configure routing can create a situation where they can corrupt memory or possibly escalate privileges.
Отчет
This flaw is rated as moderate as setting up the condition requires CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges which are not available to regular users.
Меры по смягчению последствий
As the IPV6 module will be auto-loaded when required, its use can be disabled by preventing the module from loading with the following instructions: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/8790 If the system requires IPV6 to work correctly, this mitigation may not be suitable. If you need further assistance, see KCS article https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 or contact Red Hat Global Support Services.
