Описание
A memory leak in the mwifiex_pcie_alloc_cmdrsp_buf() function in drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/pcie.c in the Linux kernel through 5.3.11 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering mwifiex_map_pci_memory() failures, aka CID-db8fd2cde932.
A flaw was found in the way the mwifiex PCIE driver in the Linux kernel handled resource cleanup on a DMA mapping error. This flaw allows an attacker able to trigger the DMA mapping error to crash the system.
Отчет
This issue is rated as having Low impact because of the preconditions needed to trigger the resource cleanup code path (DMA mapping error).
Меры по смягчению последствий
In order to mitigate this issue it is possible to prevent the affected code from being loaded by blacklisting the kernel module mwifiex_pcie. For instructions relating to how to blacklist a kernel module refer to: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 .
