It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-10690 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Canonical Ubuntu 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-2020-10690/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-10690/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-10690","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-10690/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-10690","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2020-10690","GHSA-hgvv-3627-37xx","UBUNTU-CVE-2020-10690"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"A use-after-free race condition in the Linux kernel PTP driver allows local attackers to cause a system crash or potentially execute code.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"ubuntu_linux","vendor":"canonical"},{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"},{"product":"active_iq_unified_manager","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"element_software","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"h300e_firmware","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"h300s_firmware","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"h410c_firmware","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"h410s_firmware","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"h500e_firmware","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"h500s_firmware","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"h610c_firmware","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"h610s_firmware","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"h615c_firmware","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"h700e_firmware","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"h700s_firmware","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"hci_compute_node","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"hci_management_node","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"solidfire","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"steelstore_cloud_integrated_storage","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"leap","vendor":"opensuse"},{"product":"enterprise_linux","vendor":"redhat"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-416","name":"Use After Free"}],"description":"There is a use-after-free in kernel versions before 5.5 due to a race condition between the release of ptp_clock and cdev while resource deallocation. When a (high privileged) process allocates a ptp device file (like /dev/ptpX) and voluntarily goes to sleep. During this time if the underlying device is removed, it can cause an exploitable condition as the process wakes up to terminate and clean all attached files. The system crashes due to the cdev structure being invalid (as already freed) which is pointed to by the inode.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Use after free in kernel","id":"CVE-2020-10690","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"canonical:ubuntu_linux","products":["canonical:ubuntu_linux","debian:debian_linux","linux:linux_kernel","netapp:active_iq_unified_manager","netapp:element_software","netapp:h300e_firmware","netapp:h300s_firmware","netapp:h410c_firmware","netapp:h410s_firmware","netapp:h500e_firmware","netapp:h500s_firmware","netapp:h610s_firmware","netapp:h700e_firmware","netapp:h700s_firmware","netapp:hci_compute_node","netapp:hci_management_node","netapp:solidfire","netapp:steelstore_cloud_integrated_storage","opensuse:leap","redhat:enterprise_linux"],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Path Traversal in Ansible","id":"CVE-2020-10691"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Missing Authorization in Eclipse Che","id":"CVE-2020-10689"},"products":["kernel"],"published":"2020-05-08","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SaltStack Salt Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2020-11651","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-04-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"OpenSMTPD Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2020-7247","kev_date_added":"2022-03-25","published":"2020-01-29"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Exim Out-of-bounds Write","id":"CVE-2019-16928","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2019-09-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Exim Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2018-6789","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2018-02-08"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Oracle Java SE and Java SE Embedded Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2015-2590","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2015-07-16"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Oracle JRE Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2013-0422","kev_date_added":"2022-05-25","published":"2013-01-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Oracle Java SE Runtime Environment (JRE) Arbitrary Code Execution","id":"CVE-2011-3544","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2011-10-19"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-04","vendors":["Red Hat"]},"summary":"A use-after-free race condition in the Linux kernel PTP driver allows local attackers to cause a system crash or potentially execute code.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-10690/"}
