Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.
1) Protection Mechanism Failure
EUVDB-ID: #VU54455
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 6.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2020-26541
CWE-ID:
CWE-693 - Protection Mechanism Failure
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The Linux kernel through 5.8.13 does not properly enforce the Secure
Boot Forbidden Signature Database (aka dbx) protection mechanism. This
affects certs/blacklist.c and certs/system_keyring.c. A local user can escalate privileges on the system.
Install updates from vendor's website.
