Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp: restrict SO_ATTACH_FILTER to priv users
This patch restricts the use of SO_ATTACH_FILTER (cBPF) on TCP sockets
to users with CAP_NET_ADMIN capability.
This blocks potential side-channel attack where an unprivileged application
attaches a filter to leak TCP sequence/acknowledgment numbers.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's handling of TCP sockets. An unprivileged application can exploit this vulnerability by attaching a Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF) using the SO_ATTACH_FILTER option. This allows the application to conduct a side-channel attack, leading to the leakage of sensitive TCP sequence and acknowledgment numbers. This information disclosure could potentially be used to aid further attacks.
