7.8 · HIGH
Published Oct 21, 2024 linux CWE-787 EPSS 0.23% (14th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2024-47719 is a high-severity vulnerability affecting linux linux_kernel. It was published on October 21, 2024 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.8 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.8, rated HIGH. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical Description

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

iommufd: Protect against overflow of ALIGN() during iova allocation

Userspace can supply an iova and uptr such that the target iova alignment

becomes really big and ALIGN() overflows which corrupts the selected area

range during allocation. CONFIG_IOMMUFD_TEST can detect this:
