CVE-2024-26947 Vulnerability Summary

CVE-2024-26947: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ARM: 9359/1: flush: check if the folio is reserved for no-mapping addresses Since commit a4d5613c4dc6 ("arm: extend pfn_valid to take into account freed memory map alignment") changes the semantics of pfn_valid() to check presence of the memory map for a PFN. A valid page for an address which is reserved but not mapped by the kernel[1], the system crashed during some uio test with the following memory layout: node 0: [mem 0x00000000c0a00000-0x00000000cc8fffff] node 0: [mem 0x00000000d0000000-0x00000000da1fffff] the uio layout is：0xc0900000, 0x100000 the crash backtrace like: Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address bff00000 [...] CPU: 1 PID: 465 Comm: startapp.bin Tainted: G O 5.10.0 #1 Hardware name: Generic DT based system PC is at b15_flush_kern_dcache_area+0x24/0x3c LR is at __sync_icache_dcache+0x6c/0x98 [...] (b15_flush_kern_dcache_area) from (__sync_icache_dcache+0x6c/0x98) (__sync_icache_dcache) from (set_pte_at+0x28/0x54) (set_pte_at) from (remap_pfn_range+0x1a0/0x274) (remap_pfn_range) from (uio_mmap+0x184/0x1b8 [uio]) (uio_mmap [uio]) from (__mmap_region+0x264/0x5f4) (__mmap_region) from (__do_mmap_mm+0x3ec/0x440) (__do_mmap_mm) from (do_mmap+0x50/0x58) (do_mmap) from (vm_mmap_pgoff+0xfc/0x188) (vm_mmap_pgoff) from (ksys_mmap_pgoff+0xac/0xc4) (ksys_mmap_pgoff) from (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x5c) Code: e0801001 e2423001 e1c00003 f57ff04f (ee070f3e) ---[ end trace 09cf0734c3805d52 ]--- Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception So check if PG_reserved was set to solve this issue.

Assessing the Risk of CVE-2024-26947

Access Complexity Graph

The exploitability of CVE-2024-26947 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).

Exploitability Analysis for CVE-2024-26947

No exploitability data is available for CVE-2024-26947.

Understanding AC and PR

A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.

Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.

Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.

CVSS Score Breakdown Chart

Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2024-26947, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.

CIA Impact Analysis

Below is the Impact Analysis for CVE-2024-26947, showing how Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability might be affected if the vulnerability is exploited. Higher values usually signal greater potential damage.

  • Confidentiality: None
    CVE-2024-26947 does not compromise confidentiality.
  • Integrity: None
    CVE-2024-26947 does not impact data integrity.
  • Availability: None
    CVE-2024-26947 does not affect system availability.

Exploit Prediction Scoring System (EPSS)

The EPSS score estimates the probability that this vulnerability will be exploited in the near future.

EPSS Score: 0.045% (probability of exploit)

EPSS Percentile: 18.35% (lower percentile = lower relative risk)
This vulnerability is less risky than approximately 81.65% of others.
