Описание
Dm-verity is used for extending root-of-trust to root filesystems. LoadPin builds on this property to restrict module/firmware loads to just the trusted root filesystem. Device-mapper table reloads currently allow users with root privileges to switch out the target with an equivalent dm-linear target and bypass verification till reboot. This allows root to bypass LoadPin and can be used to load untrusted and unverified kernel modules and firmware, which implies arbitrary kernel execution and persistence for peripherals that do not verify firmware updates. We recommend upgrading past commit 4caae58406f8ceb741603eee460d79bacca9b1b5
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. Dm-verity is used for extending root-of-trust to root filesystems. LoadPin builds on this property to restrict module and firmware loads to just the trusted root filesystem. Device-mapper table reloads currently allow users with root privileges to switch out the target with an equivalent dm-linear target and bypass verification until reboot. This allows root to bypass LoadPin and can be used to load untrusted and unverified kernel modules and firmware, which implies arbitrary kernel execution and persistence for peripherals that do not verify firmware updates.
Отчет
Starting from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 8.7 the bug already fixed (by previous ticket https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2012340). Similar for the Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 9.1 it is already fixed (by the ticket https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2090507).
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options don't meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability.
