CVE-2024-38394 (GCVE-0-2024-38394)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2024-06-15 00:00 – Updated: 2024-11-12 20:55 Disputed
VLAI?
Summary
Mismatches in interpreting USB authorization policy between GNOME Settings Daemon (GSD) through 46.0 and the Linux kernel's underlying device matching logic allow a physically proximate attacker to access some unintended Linux kernel USB functionality, such as USB device-specific kernel modules and filesystem implementations. NOTE: the GSD supplier indicates that consideration of a mitigation for this within GSD would be in the context of "a new feature, not a CVE."
Severity ?
