Ubuntu Linux 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contain AppArmor SAUCE patches which can potentially incorrectly compute the size of an internal buffer, leading to a heap memory out-of-bounds read in notification handling code. The bug can be triggered by an unprivileged local user and can result in invalid data being processed by the AppArmor DFA policy engine.
AnalysisAI
Out-of-bounds heap read in Ubuntu Linux kernels 6.8, 6.17, and 7.0 stems from AppArmor SAUCE patches miscomputing an internal buffer size during notification handling, allowing an unprivileged local user to feed invalid data into the AppArmor DFA policy engine. The flaw carries a CVSS 7.8 (high) and currently has no public exploit identified at time of analysis, though Canonical has shipped an upstream kernel fix. …
