🛡️ CVE-2023-53395 on Ubuntu — linux
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ACPICA: Add AML_NO_OPERAND_RESOLVE flag to Timer ACPICA commit 90310989a0790032f5a0140741ff09b545af4bc5 According to the ACPI specification 19.6.134, no argument is required to be passed for ASL Timer instruction. For taking care of no argument, AML_NO_OPERAND_RESOLVE flag is added to ASL Timer instruction opcode. When ASL timer instruction interpreted by ACPI interpreter, getting error. After adding AML_NO_OPERAND_RESOLVE flag to ASL Timer instruction opcode, issue is not observed. ============================================================= UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in acpica/dswexec.c:401:12 index -1 is out of range for type 'union acpi_operand_object *[9]' CPU: 37 PID: 1678 Comm: cat Not tainted 6.0.0-dev-th500-6.0.y-1+bcf8c46459e407-generic-64k HW name: NVIDIA BIOS v1.1.1-d7acbfc-dirty 12/19/2022 Call trace: dump_backtrace+0xe0/0x130 show_stack+0x20/0x60 dump_stack_lvl+0x68/0x84 dump_stack+0x18/0x34 ubsan_epilogue+0x10/0x50 __ubsan_handle_out_of_bounds+0x80/0x90 acpi_ds_exec_end_op+0x1bc/0x6d8 acpi_ps_parse_loop+0x57c/0x618 acpi_ps_parse_aml+0x1e0/0x4b4 acpi_ps_execute_method+0x24c/0x2b8 acpi_ns_evaluate+0x3a8/0x4bc acpi_evaluate_object+0x15c/0x37c acpi_evaluate_integer+0x54/0x15c show_power+0x8c/0x12c [acpi_power_meter]
Distribution advisory
This page covers CVE-2023-53395 as tracked by Ubuntu, for the package linux. The fix is available in version 5.15.0-94.104; earlier versions remain affected.
How this vulnerability can be exploited
This issue can be reached with local access to the system, attack complexity is low, an attacker needs low-level privileges on the target. No user interaction is required. The scope is unchanged, so the impact stays within the vulnerable component. Rated impact: confidentiality high, integrity high, availability high.
CVSS metrics in full
The score comes from this vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Attack vector: Local — a local account, shell or session on the host is needed.
- Attack complexity: Low — the attack works reliably, with no preparation.
- Privileges required: Low — an ordinary user account is enough.
- User interaction: None — nobody has to be tricked into anything.
- Scope: Unchanged — the damage stays inside the vulnerable component.
- Confidentiality impact: High — total loss, or loss the attacker controls.
- Integrity impact: High — total loss, or loss the attacker controls.
- Availability impact: High — total loss, or loss the attacker controls.
