CVE-2023-41325
No affected components available
OP-TEE is a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) designed as companion to a non-secure Linux kernel running on Arm; Cortex-A cores using the TrustZone technology. Starting in version 3.20 and prior to version 3.22, shdr_verify_signature can make a double free. shdr_verify_signature used to verify a TA binary before it is loaded. To verify a signature of it, allocate a memory for RSA key. RSA key allocate function (sw_crypto_acipher_alloc_rsa_public_key) will try to allocate a memory (which is optee’s heap memory). RSA key is consist of exponent and modulus (represent as variable e, n) and it allocation is not atomic way, so it may succeed in e but fail in n. In this case sw_crypto_acipher_alloc_rsa_public_keywill free oneand return as it is failed but variable ‘e’ is remained as already freed memory address .shdr_verify_signaturewill free again that memory (which ise`) even it is freed when it failed allocate RSA key. A patch is available in version 3.22. No known workarounds are available.
The vulnerability requires local access to the device to be exploited. It is easy for an attacker to exploit this vulnerability. An attacker needs high-level or administrative privileges. The attacker needs the user to perform some action, like clicking a link. The vulnerability can affect other systems as well, not just the initial system. There is a high impact on the confidentiality of the information. There is a high impact on the integrity of the data.
Exploitation attempts have been detected. Elevated vigilance and prompt remediation are advised.
The exploit probability is very low. The vulnerability is unlikely to be exploited in the next 30 days.
We did not find any exploit available. Neither in GitHub repositories nor in the Exploit-Database.
