U.S. CISA adds Linux kernel flaw to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog

Pierluigi Paganini February 05, 2025

U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) adds Linux kernel vulnerability to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) added a Linux kernel vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2024-53104, to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog.

The February 2025 Android security updates addressed 48 vulnerabilities, the zero-day flaw CVE-2024-53104 which is actively exploited in attacks in the wild.

“There are indications that CVE-2024-53104 may be under limited, targeted exploitation.” reads Google’s bulletin.

Google as usual did not share details about the attacks exploiting the above vulnerability,

The vulnerability is a privilege escalation security flaw in the Kernel’s USB Video Class driver. An authenticated local attacker could exploit the flaw to elevate privileges in low-complexity attacks.

The issue stems from improper parsing of UVC_VS_UNDEFINED frames, causing miscalculation of the frame buffer size and potentially leading to arbitrary code execution or denial-of-service attacks.

“In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: uvcvideo: Skip parsing frames of type UVC_VS_UNDEFINED in uvc_parse_format This can lead to out of bounds writes since frames of this type were not taken into account when calculating the size of the frames buffer in uvc_parse_streaming.” reads the advisory.

According to Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 22-01: Reducing the Significant Risk of Known Exploited Vulnerabilities, FCEB agencies have to address the identified vulnerabilities by the due date to protect their networks against attacks exploiting the flaws in the catalog.

Experts also recommend private organizations review the Catalog and address the vulnerabilities in their infrastructure.

CISA orders federal agencies to fix this vulnerability by February 26, 2025.
