Description
In ep_loop_check_proc of eventpoll.c, there is a possible way to corrupt memory due to a use after free. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android kernelAndroid ID: A-204573007References: Upstream kernel
A use-after-free flaw was found in Linux kernel's ep_loop_check_proc in fs/eventpoll.c function in the filesystem. This flaw could allow an attacker to crash the system while polling for a file that is already committed to destruction. This vulnerability could lead to a kernel information leak and a privilege escalation problem.
