Arm 5th‑Gen GPU driver lets low‑privilege user read freed memory

CVE-2024-1395 · published 2 years ago
Summary

The Arm 5th‑Gen GPU Architecture Kernel Driver (versions r41p0 through r47p0) can be tricked by a regular user into accessing memory that should have been cleared. This could expose data that was thought to be removed. Apply the latest driver update from Arm and limit local user permissions to prevent exploitation.

What to do
  • Update google :unknown: to version SoCVersion:2024-05-05.
  • Update arm 5th_gen_gpu_architecture_kernel_driver to version r48p0 or later.

Original advisory text
ASB-A-329506991
Use After Free vulnerability in Arm Ltd Arm 5th Gen GPU Architecture Kernel Driver allows a local non-privileged user to make improper GPU memory processing operations. If the system’s memory is carefully prepared by the user, then this in turn could give them access to already freed memory.
This issue affects Arm 5th Gen GPU Architecture Kernel Driver: from r41p0 through r47p0.
