CVE-2024-42416 - Bhyve Virtio-SCSI Unvalidated Field Write and Code Execution Vulnerability

CVE ID : CVE-2024-42416
Published : Sept. 5, 2024, 5:15 a.m. | 24 minutes ago
Description : The ctl_report_supported_opcodes function did not sufficiently validate a field provided by userspace, allowing an arbitrary write to a limited amount of kernel help memory. Malicious software running in a guest VM that exposes virtio_scsi can exploit the vulnerabilities to achieve code execution on the host in the bhyve userspace process, which typically runs as root. Note that bhyve runs in a Capsicum sandbox, so malicious code is constrained by the capabilities available to the bhyve process. A malicious iSCSI initiator could achieve remote code execution on the iSCSI target host.
Severity: 0.0 | NA
