CVE-2022-2503 - Medium Severity Vulnerability
Yocto Linux Embedded kernel
Library home page: https://git.yoctoproject.org/git/linux-yocto
Found in HEAD commit: fc232d9ef12e2320ea3e8cb3de916a34aad68b6a
Found in base branch: master
Dm-verity is used for extending root-of-trust to root filesystems. LoadPin builds on this property to restrict module/firmware loads to just the trusted root filesystem. 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. We recommend upgrading past commit 4caae58406f8ceb741603eee460d79bacca9b1b5
