Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, has been found in Linux Kernel up to 6.1.128/6.6.77/6.12.13/6.13.2. This issue affects some unknown functionality of the component binfmt_flat. The manipulation of the argument full_data with an unknown input leads to a integer overflow vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-190. The product performs a calculation that can produce an integer overflow or wraparound, when the logic assumes that the resulting value will always be larger than the original value. This can introduce other weaknesses when the calculation is used for resource management or execution control. The impact remains unknown. The summary by CVE is:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: binfmt_flat: Fix integer overflow bug on 32 bit systems Most of these sizes and counts are capped at 256MB so the math doesn't result in an integer overflow. The "relocs" count needs to be checked as well. Otherwise on 32bit systems the calculation of "full_data" could be wrong. full_data = data_len + relocs * sizeof(unsigned long);

The advisory is shared at git.kernel.org. The identification of this vulnerability is CVE-2024-58010 since 02/27/2025. Technical details are known, but no exploit is available. The price for an exploit might be around USD $0-$5k at the moment (estimation calculated on 05/24/2026).

The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 233595 (Debian dla-4102 : linux-config-6.1 - security update), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment.

Upgrading to version 6.1.129, 6.6.78, 6.12.14, 6.13.3 or 6.14-rc1 eliminates this vulnerability. Applying the patch 95506c7f33452450346fbe2975c1359100f854ca/d17ca8f2dfcf423c439859995910a20e38b86f00/a009378af674b808efcca1e2e67916e79ce866b3/8e8cd712bb06a507b26efd2a56155076aa454345/55cf2f4b945f6a6416cc2524ba740b83cc9af25a is able to eliminate this problem. The bugfix is ready for download at git.kernel.org. The best possible mitigation is suggested to be upgrading to the latest version.

The vulnerability is also documented in the databases at Tenable (233595) and CERT Bund (WID-SEC-2025-0453). If you want to get the best quality for vulnerability data then you always have to consider VulDB.
