LIN1018-3226 : Security Advisory - linux - CVE-2018-16884

Created: Dec 19, 2018    Updated: Mar 13, 2019
Resolved Date: Mar 6, 2019
Found In Version: unknown
Fix Version: 10.18.44.5
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux LTS 18
Component/s: Kernel

Description

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in the NFS41+ subsystem. NFS41+ shares mounted in different network namespaces at the same time can make bc_svc_process() use wrong back-channel id and cause a use-after-free. Thus a malicious container user can cause a host kernel memory corruption and a system panic. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out.
