Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: m_can: pci: add missing m_can_class_free_dev() in probe/remove methods
In m_can_pci_remove() and error handling path of m_can_pci_probe(),
m_can_class_free_dev() should be called to free resource allocated by
m_can_class_allocate_dev(), otherwise there will be memleak.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could exploit a missing call to m_can_class_free_dev() in the m_can_pci_remove() and m_can_pci_probe() error handling paths. This oversight leads to a memory leak, which could result in a denial of service (DoS) due to resource exhaustion.
Меры по смягчению последствий
To mitigate this issue, prevent the m_can kernel module from loading. Create a file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-m_can.conf with the content blacklist m_can. Then, regenerate the initramfs using sudo dracut -f -v and reboot the system for the changes to take effect. This action may impact functionality that relies on the m_can driver, such as Controller Area Network (CAN) bus communication via PCI devices.
