CVE-2019-9458 [HIGH] CWE-362 kernel: use after free due to race condition in the video driver leads to local privilege escalation
kernel: use after free due to race condition in the video driver leads to local privilege escalation
In the Android kernel in the video driver there is a use after free due to a race condition. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's video driver. A race condition, leading to a use-after-free, could lead to a local privilege escalation. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
Statement: This issue is rated as having Moderate impact, because of the need of additional privileges (usually local console user) to access the video device driver.
Mitigation: To mitigate this issue, prevent modules v4l2-common, v4l2-dv-timings from being load
