In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm-stats: fix a crash if allocation of per-cpu data fails
If "dm_kvzalloc(percpu_alloc_size, cpu_to_node(cpu))" fails, the code
jumps to the "out" label and calls dm_stat_free. dm_stat_free does
"for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) { dm_kvfree(s->stat_percpu[cpu][0].histogram,
s->histogram_alloc_size);", which crashes with NULL pointer dereference
if s->stat_percpu[cpu] is NULL.
This commit fixes the bug by testing s->stat_percpu[cpu] for NULL before
using it.
BOD 26-04 (CISA's remediation timeline, Table 1)14 days if the affected system is publicly exposed; Fix on system upgrade if it is not.
In CISA KEV no (CISA's KEV catalog) · Automatable no (CISA's BOD 26-04 default) · Technical impact total (CISA's BOD 26-04 default). Where an input reads “CISA's BOD 26-04 default”, no one has published it for this CVE, and CISA's implementation guidance says: “If “Automatable” and “Technical Impact” information items about a CVE ID are not available and the CVE ID is not in the KEV Catalog, CISA will treat its values as “no” and “total,” respectively, until CISA or a third party provides metadata about the CVE ID. CISA will always provide the Vulnrichment data for a CVE ID listed in the KEV Catalog.” Whether your system is publicly exposed is yours to answer. BOD 26-04 binds US Federal Civilian Executive Branch agencies; for anyone else it is CISA's published timeline, a reference rather than an obligation. The directive · how EchelonGraph applies it
