High · 8.4 CVE-2024-43110 EUVD-2024-40038GHSA-r58j-7299-f87q

Multiple issues in ctl(4) CAM Target Layer

Published Sep 5, 2024 · Updated Nov 4, 2025 · Assigned by freebsd

Description

The ctl_request_sense function could expose up to three bytes of the kernel heap to userspace.

Malicious software running in a guest VM that exposes virtio_scsi can exploit the vulnerabilities to achieve code execution on the host in the bhyve userspace process, which typically runs as root. Note that bhyve runs in a Capsicum sandbox, so malicious code is constrained by the capabilities available to the bhyve process. A malicious iSCSI initiator could achieve remote code execution on the iSCSI target host.
