Vulnerability in Kernel (CVE-2022-50647)

Summary

Vulnerability in Kernel (CVE-2022-50647). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure. Mitigation: upgrade to 5.4.220, 5.10.150, 5.15.75, 5.19.17, 6.0.3 or later.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

RISC-V: Make port I/O string accessors actually work

Fix port I/O string accessors such as insb', outsb', etc. which use
the physical PCI port I/O address rather than the corresponding memory
mapping to get at the requested location, which in turn breaks at least
accesses made by our parport driver to a PCIe parallel port such as:

PCI parallel port detected: 1415:c118, I/O at 0x1000(0x1008), IRQ 20
parport0: PC-style at 0x1000 (0x1008), irq 20, using FIFO [PCSPP,TRISTATE,COMPAT,EPP,ECP]

causing a memory access fault:

Unable to handle kernel access to user memory without uaccess routines at virtual address 0000000000001008

A vulnerability (unclassified) exists in Kernel.

📍 Affected scope

Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of Kernel.

🔥 Severity

Severity: ?. Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure.

🔧 How to fix

Update to 5.4.220, 5.10.150, 5.15.75, 5.19.17, 6.0.3.

🛡️ Workaround

Until the patch is applied: disable the affected feature, apply WAF rules, or restrict access via network ACLs.

🔍 Detection

Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual request patterns matching this CVE's known IOCs. Run grep -r 'Kernel' . against your dependency files (package-lock.json, requirements.txt, go.sum) to find affected services.

Response actions

Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order

1
Identify exposure identify
```
grep -r 'Kernel' . | grep -v node_modules
```
リポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で Kernel を grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。
2
Apply patch patch
```
Upgrade Kernel to 5.4.220, 5.10.150, 5.15.75, 5.19.17, 6.0.3
```
ステージング環境で 5.4.220, 5.10.150, 5.15.75, 5.19.17, 6.0.3 に上げて回帰テスト → 本番反映。回帰テストはアプリの主要ハッピーパスを含めること。
3
Post-deployment verification verify
```
Confirm patched version is live in production
```
パッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番ではアクセスログ・WAF でアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
