To exploit the venerability, a local user starts a transaction (via the hardware transactional memory instruction tbegin) and then accesses vector registers. At some point, the vector registers will be corrupted with the values from a different local Linux process, because MSR_TM_ACTIVE is misused in arch/powerpc/kernel/process.c." } ] }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "n/a" } ] } ] }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=a8318c13e79badb92bc6640704a64cc022a6eb97", "url": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=a8318c13e79badb92bc6640704a64cc022a6eb97" }, { "refsource": "MISC", "name": "http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2019/09/10/4", "url": "http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2019/09/10/4" }, { "refsource": "UBUNTU", "name": "USN-4135-2", "url": "https://usn.ubuntu.com/4135-2/" }, { "refsource": "SUSE", "name": "openSUSE-SU-2019:2173", "url": "http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2019-09/msg00064.html" }, { "refsource": "SUSE", "name": "openSUSE-SU-2019:2181", "url": "http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2019-09/msg00066.html" }, { "refsource": "UBUNTU", "name": "USN-4135-1", "url": "https://usn.ubuntu.com/4135-1/" }, { "refsource": "CONFIRM", "name": "https://security.netapp.com/advisory/ntap-20191004-0001/", "url": "https://security.netapp.com/advisory/ntap-20191004-0001/" } ] } }
