CVE-2022-50860

Estado: AplazadaAlta (7.8)—

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

apparmor: Fix memleak in alloc_ns()

After changes in commit a1bd627b46d1 ("apparmor: share profile name on replacement"), the hname member of struct aa_policy is not valid slab object, but a subset of that, it can not be freed by kfree_sensitive(), use aa_policy_destroy() to fix it.

CVSS

Versión: 3.1
Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
