Siemens SCALANCE and RUGGEDCOM Devices Improper Input Validation (CVE-2024-47740)

medium Tenable OT Security Plugin ID 504692

Synopsis

The remote OT asset is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

Inf2fs: Require FMODE_WRITE for atomic write ioctls. The F2FS ioctls for starting and committing atomic writes check for inode_owner_or_capable(), but this does not give LSMs like SELinux or Landlock an opportunity to deny the write access - if the caller's FSUID matches the inode's UID, inode_owner_or_capable() immediately returns true.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
