5Description
cryptodev-linux version 1.14 and prior contain a page reference handling flaw in the get_userbuf function of the /dev/crypto device driver that allows local users to trigger use-after-free conditions. Attackers with access to the /dev/crypto interface can repeatedly decrement reference counts of controlled pages to achieve local privilege escalation.
Analysis
cryptodev-linux 1.14 and earlier suffer from a use-after-free vulnerability in the /dev/crypto device driver that enables local privilege escalation through reference count manipulation. Attackers with local access can exploit this memory corruption flaw to gain elevated privileges on affected systems. …
