In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: target_core_configfs: Add length check to avoid buffer overflow
A buffer overflow arises from the usage of snprintf to write into the
buffer "buf" in target_lu_gp_members_show function located in
/drivers/target/target_core_configfs.c. This buffer is allocated with
size LU_GROUP_NAME_BUF (256 bytes).
snprintf(...) formats multiple strings into buf with the HBA name
(hba->hba_group.cg_item), a slash character, a devicename (dev->
dev_group.cg_item) and a newline character, the total formatted string
length may exceed the buffer size of 256 bytes.
Since snprintf() returns the total number of bytes that would have been
written (the length of %s/%sn ), this value may exceed the buffer length
(256 bytes) passed to memcpy(), this will ultimately cause function
memcpy reporting a buffer overflow error.
An additional check of the return value of snprintf() can avoid this
buffer overflow.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A local user with low privileges could exploit a buffer overflow vulnerability in the target_lu_gp_members_show function. This occurs because the snprintf function writes data exceeding a fixed-size buffer, which can then cause a subsequent memcpy operation to report a buffer overflow. Successful exploitation could lead to arbitrary code execution, privilege escalation, or information disclosure.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability.
