AZL-6596 CVE-2021-41073 affecting package kernel for versions less than 5.10.78.1-1

looprwiter in fs/iouring.c in the Linux kernel 5.10 through 5.14.6 allows local users to gain privileges by using IORINGOPPROVIDEBUFFERS to trigger a free of a kernel buffer, as demonstrated by using /proc//maps for exploitation...

CVE-2021-3491

The iouring subsystem in the Linux kernel allowed the MAXRWCOUNT limit to be bypassed in the PROVIDEBUFFERS operation, which led to negative values being usedin memrw when reading /proc//mem. This could be used to create a heap overflow leading to arbitrary code execution in the kernel. It was...

CVE-2021-3491

CVE-2021-3491 concerns the Linux kernel io_uring PROVIDE_BUFFERS path, where the MAX_RW_COUNT limit could be bypassed, causing negative values to be used in mem_rw during /proc//mem reads. This could enable a heap overflow and potential arbitrary code execution in the kernel. The issue was addres...

CVE-2021-3491

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. The iouring PROVIDEBUFFERS operation allowed the MAXRWCOUNT limit to be bypassed, which led to negative values being used in memrw when reading /proc//mem. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system...
