Overview

CVE-2024-50077 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on October 29, 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:

Bluetooth: ISO: Fix multiple init when debugfs is disabled

If bt_debugfs is not created successfully, which happens if either

CONFIG_DEBUG_FS or CONFIG_DEBUG_FS_ALLOW_ALL is unset, then iso_init()

returns early and does not set iso_inited to true. This means that a

subsequent call to iso_init() will result in duplicate calls to

proto_register(), bt_sock_register(), etc.

With CONFIG_LIST_HARDENED and CONFIG_BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION enabled, the

duplicate call to proto_register() triggers this BUG():

list_add double add: new=ffffffffc0b280d0, prev=ffffffffbab56250,

next=ffffffffc0b280d0.

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2024-50077?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine.
