CVE-2023-6546

A race condition was found in the GSM 0710 tty multiplexor in the Linux kernel. This issue occurs when two threads execute the GSMIOC_SETCONF ioctl on the same tty file descriptor with the gsm line discipline enabled, and can lead to a use-after-free problem on a struct gsm_dlci while restarting the gsm mux. This could allow a local unprivileged user to escalate their privileges on the system.

Summary
  • (es) Se encontró una condición de ejecución en el multiplexor tty GSM 0710 en el kernel de Linux. Este problema ocurre cuando dos subprocesos ejecutan GSMIOC_SETCONF ioctl en el mismo descriptor de archivo tty con la disciplina de línea gsm habilitada y puede provocar un problema de use after free en una estructura gsm_dlci al reiniciar gsm mux. Esto podría permitir que un usuario local sin privilegios aumente sus privilegios en el sistema.
