EUVDB-ID: #VU15526
Risk: Low
CVSSv4.0: 7.1 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear]
CVE-ID: CVE-2018-18559
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a local attacker to gain elevated privileges on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper handling of a certain multithreaded case involving packet_do_bind unregister and packet_notifier register actions after a race condition between fanout_add, from setsockopt, and a bind on an AF_PACKET socket. A local attacker can execute a program or file that submits malicious input, trigger a use-after-free condition and execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
