LIN8-12991 : Security Advisory - linux - CVE-2020-27675

Created: Oct 22, 2020    Updated: Nov 4, 2020
Found In Version: 8.0.0.1
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux 8
Component/s: Kernel

Description

An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.9.1, as used with Xen through 4.14.x. drivers/xen/events/events_base.c allows event-channel removal during the event-handling loop (a race condition). This can cause a use-after-free or NULL pointer dereference, as demonstrated by a dom0 crash via events for an in-reconfiguration paravirtualized device, aka CID-073d0552ead5.
