Description

procps-ng before version 3.3.15 is vulnerable to multiple integer overflows leading to a heap corruption in file2strvec function. This allows a privilege escalation for a local attacker who can create entries in procfs by starting processes, which could result in crashes or arbitrary code execution in proc utilities run by other users.

Weaknesses (CWE)

  • CWE-190 — Integer Overflow or Wraparound
  • CWE-122 — Heap-based Buffer Overflow
  • CWE-787 — Out-of-bounds Write
