Siemens SCALANCE and RUGGEDCOM Devices Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition') (CVE-2024-42232)

medium Tenable OT Security Plugin ID 504473

Synopsis

The remote OT asset is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

libceph: fix race between delayed_work() and ceph_monc_stop() The way the delayed work is handled in ceph_monc_stop() is prone to races with mon_fault() and possibly also finish_hunting(). Both of these can requeue the delayed work which wouldn't be canceled by any of the following code in case that happens after cancel_delayed_work_sync() runs -- __close_session() doesn't mess with the delayed work in order to avoid interfering with the hunting interval logic. This part was missed in(libceph: behave in mon_fault() if cur_mon < ) and use- after-free can still ensue on monc and objects that hang off of it, with monc-> auth and monc->monmap being particularly susceptible to quickly being reused.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
