Exploiting A 16-Year-Old Vulnerability In The Linux 6pack Driver (CVE-2021-42008)
CVE-2021-42008 is a Slab-Out-Of-Bounds Write vulnerability in the Linux 6pack driver caused by a missing size validation check in the decode_data function. A malicious input from a process with CAP_NET_ADMIN capability can lead to an overflow in the cooked_buf field of the sixpack structure, resulting in kernel memory corruption. This, if properly exploited, can lead to root access.
