Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2024-27062)
Summary
Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2024-27062). Successful exploitation can lead to full system takeover.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nouveau: lock the client object tree.
It appears the client object tree has no locking unless I've missed
something else. Fix races around adding/removing client objects,
mostly vram bar mappings.
