Red Hat Security Advisory: kpatch-patch security update

Notes

Topic
An update for kpatch-patch is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.
Details
This is a kernel live patch module which is automatically loaded by the RPM post-install script to modify the code of a running kernel. Security Fix(es): * kernel: use-after-free vulnerability in the perf_group_detach function of the Linux Kernel Performance Events (CVE-2023-2235) * kernel: netfilter: use-after-free in nf_tables when processing batch requests can lead to privilege escalation (CVE-2023-32233) For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Like it is mentioned earlier, the successful exploit needs necessary privileges (CAP_NET_ADMIN) and direct, local access . Local user in RHCOS is already a root with full permissions, hence existence of this vulnerability does not bring any value from the potential attacker perspective. From the OpenShift containers perspective, this vulnerability cannot be exploited as in OpenShift the cluster processes on the node are namespaced, which means that switching in the running OpenShift container the namespace will not bring necessary capabilities.\nThis means that for OpenShift, the impact of this vulnerability is Low.\nSimilar to CVE-2023-32233 vulnerability has been explained in the following blog post as an example of \"Container escape vulnerability\":\nhttps://www.redhat.com/en/blog/containers-vulnerability-risk-assessment",

If the module cannot be disabled, on non-containerized deployments of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, the mitigation is to disable user namespaces:\n```\n# echo \"user.max_user_namespaces=0\" \u003e /etc/sysctl.d/userns.conf\n# sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.d/userns.conf\n```\nOn containerized deployments, such as Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform, do not use the second mitigation (disabling user namespaces) as the functionality is needed to be enabled. The first mitigation (blacklisting nf_tables) is still viable for containerized deployments, providing the environment is not using netfilter.",
