2) Out-of-bounds write
EUVDB-ID: #VU101102
Risk: High
CVSSv4.0: 8.5 [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:A/U:Amber]
CVE-ID: CVE-2024-53104
CWE-ID:
CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read error within the uvc_parse_format() function in drivers/media/usb/uvc/uvc_driver.c. A local user can trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the system.
Note, the vulnerability is being actively exploited in the wild.
Update the affected package the Linux Kernel (Live Patch 2 for SLE 15 SP6) to the latest version.
