CVE-2024-56564 (opens in a new tab)Amendment
The Red Hat security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for RHEL:7.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-tools-libs package and not the kernel-tools-libs package as distributed by RHEL.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ceph: pass cred pointer to ceph_mds_auth_match()
This eliminates a redundant get_current_cred() call, because ceph_mds_check_access() has already obtained this pointer.
As a side effect, this also fixes a reference leak in ceph_mds_auth_match(): by omitting the get_current_cred() call, no additional cred reference is taken.
