Описание

A use-after-free flaw was found in xgene_hwmon_remove in drivers/hwmon/xgene-hwmon.c in the Hardware Monitoring Linux Kernel Driver (xgene-hwmon). This flaw could allow a local attacker to crash the system due to a race problem. This vulnerability could even lead to a kernel information leak problem.

A use-after-free flaw was found in xgene_hwmon_remove in drivers/hwmon/xgene-hwmon.c in the Hardware Monitoring Linux Kernel driver (xgene-hwmon). This flaw could allow a local attacker to crash the system due to a race problem, possibly leading to a kernel information leak.

Отчет

Because this flaw affects a specific CPU family, and because exploitation requires elevated system privileges, Red Hat assesses the impact of this flaw as Low.

Меры по смягчению последствий

This flaw can be mitigated by preventing the affected APM X-Gene SoC HW monitor kernel driver (apm_xgene) from loading during the boot time. Ensure the module is added into the blacklist file.
