CVE-2019-11190 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
Upgrade RHEL:7 kernel-debug to version 0:3.10.0-1127.el7 or higher.
This issue was patched in RHSA-2020:1016.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-debug package and not the kernel-debug package as distributed by RHEL.
See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.
The Linux kernel before 4.8 allows local users to bypass ASLR on setuid programs (such as /bin/su) because install_exec_creds() is called too late in load_elf_binary() in fs/binfmt_elf.c, and thus the ptrace_may_access() check has a race condition when reading /proc/pid/stat.
