CVE-2020-10702

5.5 mediumEPSS 0.3%

Medium (5.5) in qemu qemu. EPSS 0.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

A flaw was found in QEMU in the implementation of the Pointer Authentication (PAuth) support for ARM introduced in version 4.0 and fixed in version 5.0.0. A general failure of the signature generation process caused every PAuth-enforced pointer to be signed with the same signature. A local attacker could obtain the signature of a protected pointer and abuse this flaw to bypass PAuth protection for all programs running on QEMU.
