Memory leak in Linux kernel - CVE-2022-1651

Vulnerability identifier: #VU64076

CSH Severity: Low

CVSS v4: 6.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1651

CWE-ID: CWE-401

Exploitation vector: Local access

Exploit availability: No public exploit available

The vulnerability allows a local privileged user to perform DoS attack on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due memory leak in the Linux kernel in acrn_dev_ioctl in the drivers/virt/acrn/hsm.c() function in how the ACRN Device Model emulates virtual NICs in VM. A local privileged user can leak unauthorized kernel information, causing a denial of service.
