CVE-2023-45922: glx_pbuffer.c in Mesa 23.0.4 was discovered to contain a segmentation violation when calling __glXGetDrawableAttribute().

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 17/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.53% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: Mesa (openSUSE:Leap 15.6) 23.3.4-150600.83.3.1; Mesa-drivers (openSUSE:Leap 15.6) 23.3.4-150600.83.3.1; Mesa (openSUSE:Leap Micro 5.5) 22.3.5-150500.77.5.1.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Mesa (openSUSE:Leap 15.6) 23.3.4-150600.83.3.1; Mesa-drivers (openSUSE:Leap 15.6) 23.3.4-150600.83.3.1; Mesa (openSUSE:Leap Micro 5.5) 22.3.5-150500.77.5.1 or later.

Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

glx_pbuffer.c in Mesa 23.0.4 was discovered to contain a segmentation violation when calling __glXGetDrawableAttribute(). NOTE: this is disputed because there are no common situations in which users require uninterrupted operation with an attacker-controller server.

Exploit status

No known public exploit

No public exploit has been observed yet. That doesn't mean you're safe, only that the bar is a little higher.

Research context

For pentesters and researchers: attack profile, score disagreement, timeline, patch commits, credits, variant and chain candidates, bug bounty scope. All derived from existing data; no exploit code.

Timeline

From publication to today: proof of concept, Metasploit module, CISA KEV and fix record. Dates are as reported by the sources.
