Vulnerability in Kernel (CVE-2024-53128)

Summary

Vulnerability in Kernel (CVE-2024-53128). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure. Mitigation: upgrade to 5.15.181, 6.1.125, 6.6.69, 6.11.10 or later.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

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

sched/task_stack: fix object_is_on_stack() for KASAN tagged pointers

When CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS and CONFIG_KASAN_STACK are enabled, the
object_is_on_stack() function may produce incorrect results due to the
presence of tags in the obj pointer, while the stack pointer does not have
tags. This discrepancy can lead to incorrect stack object detection and
subsequently trigger warnings if CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS is also enabled.

Example of the warning:

ODEBUG: object 3eff800082ea7bb0 is NOT on stack ffff800082ea0000, but annotated.

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 5.15.181, 6.1.125, 6.6.69, 6.11.10
```
ステージング環境で 5.15.181, 6.1.125, 6.6.69, 6.11.10 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。
