CVE-2024-43882

CVE-2024-43882 is a Linux kernel race Condition (ToCToU) in exec path: permission checks for a file are done at do_filp_open(), but the metadata (mode/UID/GID) used later in execve() can be changed before execution, enabling potential root privilege escalation. The issue is exploitable in scenari...

A flaw was found in the QEMU virtio-fs shared file system daemon (virtiofsd) implementation. This flaw is strictly related to CVE-2018-13405. A local guest user can create files in the directories shared by virtio-fs with unintended group ownership in a scenario where a directory is SGID to a certain group and is writable by a user who is not a member of the group. This could allow a malicious unprivileged user inside the guest to gain access to resources accessible to the root group potentially escalating their privileges within the guest. A malicious local user in the host might also leverage this unexpected executable file created by the guest to escalate their privileges on the host system.
