CVE-2024-46826
Last modified
CVE-2024-46826 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.5/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ELF: fix kernel.randomize_va_space double read ELF loader uses "randomize_va_space" twice. It is sysctl and can change at any moment, so 2 loads could see 2 different values in theory with unpredictable consequences. Issue exactly one load for consistent value across one exec.. EPSS estimates a 0.25% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
