Last modified

CVE-2024-26753 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.8/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: crypto: virtio/akcipher - Fix stack overflow on memcpy sizeof(struct virtio_crypto_akcipher_session_para) is less than sizeof(struct virtio_crypto_op_ctrl_req::u), copying more bytes from stack variable leads stack overflow. Clang reports this issue by commands: make -j CC=clang-14 mrproper >/dev/null 2>&1 make -j O=/tmp/crypto-build CC=clang-14 allmodconfig >/dev/null 2>&1 make -j O=/tmp/crypto-build W=1 CC=clang-14 drivers/crypto/virtio/ virtio_crypto_akcipher_algs.o. EPSS estimates a 0.27% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
