OESA-2024-1384 (CVE-2022-2639)
Vulnerability from osv_openeuler – Published: 2024-04-12 11:06 – Updated: 2026-08-06 11:06 – Source websiteOpen vSwitch is a production quality, multilayer virtual switch licensed under the open source Apache 2.0 license.
Security Fix(es):
An integer coercion error was found in the openvswitch kernel module. Given a sufficiently large number of actions, while copying and reserving memory for a new action of a new flow, the reserve_sfa_size() function does not return -EMSGSIZE as expected, potentially leading to an out-of-bounds write access. This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system.(CVE-2022-2639)
