Distribution advisory

This page covers CVE-2024-53227 as tracked by Ubuntu, for the package linux. The fix is available in version 6.8.0-58.60; 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.
