Vulnerability in Kernel (CVE-2024-26707)

Summary

Vulnerability in Kernel (CVE-2024-26707). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure. Mitigation: upgrade to 5.10.210, 5.15.149, 6.1.79, 6.6.18, 6.7.6 or later.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

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

net: hsr: remove WARN_ONCE() in send_hsr_supervision_frame()

Syzkaller reported [1] hitting a warning after failing to allocate
resources for skb in hsr_init_skb(). Since a WARN_ONCE() call will
not help much in this case, it might be prudent to switch to
netdev_warn_once(). At the very least it will suppress syzkaller
reports such as [1].

Just in case, use netdev_warn_once() in send_prp_supervision_frame()
for similar reasons.

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 5.10.210, 5.15.149, 6.1.79, 6.6.18, 6.7.6
```
ステージング環境で 5.10.210, 5.15.149, 6.1.79, 6.6.18, 6.7.6 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。
