CVE-2023-52676 is a vulnerability in the Linux kernel that was discovered in 2023. The issue relates to arithmetic operations in stack bounds checking, where calculations were performed in 32-bit instead of 64-bit domain (NVD). The vulnerability affects multiple Linux distributions including Ubuntu and Red Hat systems (Ubuntu Security, Red Hat Portal).
The vulnerability involves a flaw in how stack bounds checking arithmetic is performed. Specifically, the calculations were being done in 32-bit domain instead of 64-bit, which could potentially lead to security implications. A patch was implemented to promote the arithmetic operations around stack bounds checking to be performed in the 64-bit domain (NVD).
The vulnerability has been addressed in various Linux distributions through security updates. Ubuntu has released security patches through their update system (Ubuntu Security), and Red Hat has included fixes in their latest updates (Red Hat Portal).
