Résumé

efivarfs: force RO when remounting if SetVariable is not supported

Description d'origine

La description telle que publiée par la source (souvent en anglais).

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

efivarfs: force RO when remounting if SetVariable is not supported

If SetVariable at runtime is not supported by the firmware we never assign
a callback for that function. At the same time mount the efivarfs as
RO so no one can call that. However, we never check the permission flags
when someone remounts the filesystem as RW. As a result this leads to a
crash looking like this:

$ mount -o remount,rw /sys/firmware/efi/efivars
$ efi-updatevar -f PK.auth PK
