Описание
A buffer over-read (at the framebuffer layer) in the fbcon code in the Linux kernel before 5.8.15 could be used by local attackers to read kernel memory, aka CID-6735b4632def.
An out-of-bounds (OOB) memory access flaw was found in fbcon_get_font() in drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbcon.c in fbcon driver module in the Linux kernel. A bound check failure allows a local attacker with special user privilege to gain access to out-of-bounds memory, leading to a system crash or a leak of internal kernel information. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to integrity and system availability.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Add 'nomodeset' option as kernel boot parameter to disable frame buffering (edit /etc/default/grub, and run 'grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg' and reboot).
