In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
keys: fix out-of-bounds read in keyring_get_key_chunk()
For description-level chunks keyring_get_key_chunk() advances the read
pointer by level * sizeof(long) past the inline prefix but only
bounds-checks the prefix, so a long enough key description is read past
its kmemdup(desc, desc_len + 1) allocation. Compute the full byte
offset and bounds-check the description against it before reading.
The walk only reaches a description-level chunk when two keys collide
through the hash, x, type and domain_tag chunks, so this is reached from
an unprivileged add_key(2) with a crafted pair of same-type keys whose
index hashes collide; KASAN reports a slab-out-of-bounds read.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's key management subsystem. An unprivileged local attacker could exploit an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the keyring_get_key_chunk() function. By providing specially crafted keys, the attacker can cause the system to read beyond its intended memory boundaries. This could lead to the disclosure of sensitive information or a system crash (denial of service).
