| Subject: CVE-2024-42312: sysctl: always initialize i_uid/i_gid |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| sysctl: always initialize i_uid/i_gid |
| |
| Always initialize i_uid/i_gid inside the sysfs core so set_ownership() |
| can safely skip setting them. |
| |
| Commit 5ec27ec735ba ("fs/proc/proc_sysctl.c: fix the default values of |
| i_uid/i_gid on /proc/sys inodes.") added defaults for i_uid/i_gid when |
| set_ownership() was not implemented. It also missed adjusting |
| net_ctl_set_ownership() to use the same default values in case the |
| computation of a better value failed. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-42312 to this issue. |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
