CVE-2019-20795 MEDIUM

Published: 2020-05-09 | Last Modified: 2024-11-21 | Status: Modified

Description

iproute2 before 5.1.0 has a use-after-free in get_netnsid_from_name in ip/ipnetns.c. NOTE: security relevance may be limited to certain uses of setuid that, although not a default, are sometimes a configuration option offered to end users. Even when setuid is used, other factors (such as C library configuration) may block exploitability.

Additional Descriptions (1)

iproute2 versiones anteriores a 5.1.0, presenta un uso de la memoria previamente liberada en la función get_netnsid_from_name en el archivo ip/ipnetns.c. NOTA: la relevancia para la seguridad puede limitarse a ciertos usos del setuid que, aunque no es un valor predeterminado, a veces es una opción de configuración ofrecida a los usuarios finales. Incluso cuando se utiliza setuid, otros factores (como la configuración de la biblioteca C) pueden bloquear la posibilidad de explotación.
