7) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls

EUVDB-ID: #VU66810

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 5.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2503

CWE-ID: CWE-264 - Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to the way dm-verity is used to restrict module/firmware loads to trusted root filesystem in LoadPin builds. Device-mapper table reloads currently allow users with root privileges to switch out the target with an equivalent dm-linear target and bypass verification till reboot. This allows root to bypass LoadPin and can be used to load untrusted and unverified kernel modules and firmware, which implies arbitrary kernel execution and persistence for peripherals that do not verify firmware updates.

Mitigation

Update the affected package linux-raspi to the latest version.

Vulnerable software versions

Ubuntu: 22.04

linux-image-5.15.0-1014-raspi-nolpae (Ubuntu package): before 5.15.0-1014.16
