CWE-264

Description

arch/x86/kernel/tls.c in the Thread Local Storage (TLS) implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.18.1 allows local users to bypass the espfix protection mechanism, and consequently makes it easier for local users to bypass the ASLR protection mechanism, via a crafted application that makes a set_thread_area system call and later reads a 16-bit value.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (<= 3.18.1) • linux linux kernel 3.0 • linux linux kernel 3.0.1 • linux linux kernel 3.0.2 • linux linux kernel 3.0.3 • linux linux kernel 3.0.4 • linux linux kernel 3.0.5 • linux linux kernel 3.0.6 • linux linux kernel 3.0.7 • linux linux kernel 3.0.8 • linux linux kernel 3.0.9 • linux linux kernel 3.0.10 • linux linux kernel 3.0.11 • linux linux kernel 3.0.12 • linux linux kernel 3.0.13 • linux linux kernel 3.0.14 • linux linux kernel 3.0.15 • linux linux kernel 3.0.16 • linux linux kernel 3.0.17 • linux linux kernel 3.0.18 • linux linux kernel 3.0.19 • linux linux kernel 3.0.20 • linux linux kernel 3.0.21 • linux linux kernel 3.0.22 • linux linux kernel 3.0.23 • linux linux kernel 3.0.24 • linux linux kernel 3.0.25 • linux linux kernel 3.0.26 • linux linux kernel 3.0.27 • linux linux kernel 3.0.28 • linux linux kernel 3.0.29 • linux linux kernel 3.0.30 • linux linux kernel 3.0.31 • linux linux kernel 3.0.32 • linux linux kernel 3.0.33 • linux linux kernel 3.0.34 • linux linux kernel 3.0.35 • linux linux kernel 3.0.36 • linux linux kernel 3.0.37 • linux linux kernel 3.0.38 • linux linux kernel 3.0.39 • linux linux kernel 3.0.40 • linux linux kernel 3.0.41 • linux linux kernel 3.0.42 • linux linux kernel 3.0.43 • linux linux kernel 3.0.44 • linux linux kernel 3.0.45 • linux linux kernel 3.0.46 • linux linux kernel 3.0.47 • linux linux kernel 3.0.48 • linux linux kernel 3.0.49 • linux linux kernel 3.0.50 • linux linux kernel 3.0.51 • linux linux kernel 3.0.52 • linux linux kernel 3.0.53 • linux linux kernel 3.0.54 • linux linux kernel 3.0.55 • linux linux kernel 3.0.56 • linux linux kernel 3.0.57 • linux linux kernel 3.0.58 … and 293 more
