CVE-2025-38247

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: userns and mnt_idmap leak in open_tree_attr(2) Once want_mount_setattr() has returned a positive, it does require finish_mount_kattr() to release ->mnt_userns. Failing do_mount_setattr() does not change that. As the result, we can end up leaking userns and possibly mnt_idmap as well.

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: fuga de userns y mnt_idmap en open_tree_attr(2). Una vez que want_mount_setattr() ha devuelto un resultado positivo, requiere finish_mount_kattr() para liberar ->mnt_userns. Un fallo en do_mount_setattr() no cambia esto. Como resultado, podemos acabar con fugas de userns y posiblemente también de mnt_idmap.
