| Subject: CVE-2022-49852: riscv: process: fix kernel info leakage |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| riscv: process: fix kernel info leakage |
| |
| thread_struct's s[12] may contain random kernel memory content, which |
| may be finally leaked to userspace. This is a security hole. Fix it |
| by clearing the s[12] array in thread_struct when fork. |
| |
| As for kthread case, it's better to clear the s[12] array as well. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2022-49852 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: |
