It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2019-3901 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Debian Debian Linux. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-3901/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-3901/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-3901","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-3901/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-3901","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2019-3901","GHSA-7w4w-2hxm-8cc6","UBUNTU-CVE-2019-3901"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can exploit a race condition in perf_event_open to leak sensitive data from setuid programs and potentially escalate privileges.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"},{"product":"active_iq_unified_manager_for_vmware_vsphere","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"cn1610_firmware","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"hci_management_node","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"snapprotect","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"solidfire","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"storage_replication_adapter_for_clustered_data_ontap_for_vmware_vsphere","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"vasa_provider_for_clustered_data_ontap","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"virtual_storage_console_for_vmware_vsphere","vendor":"netapp"}],"cvss":{"score":5.6,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-667","name":"Improper Locking"}],"description":"A race condition in perf_event_open() allows local attackers to leak sensitive data from setuid programs. As no relevant locks (in particular the cred_guard_mutex) are held during the ptrace_may_access() call, it is possible for the specified target task to perform an execve() syscall with setuid execution before perf_event_alloc() actually attaches to it, allowing an attacker to bypass the ptrace_may_access() check and the perf_event_exit_task(current) call that is performed in install_exec_creds() during privileged execve() calls.
