The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read error within the uvc_parse_format() function in drivers/media/usb/uvc/uvc_driver.c. A local user can trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the system.

4) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-11218)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to improperly imposed security restrictions during the build process. A remote user can leverage usage of a --mount flag in RUN instructions in Containerfiles along with multi-stage builds with use of concurrently-executing build stages or multiple separate but concurrently-executing builds to expose content from the build host and perform read/write operations on the system with privileges of the podman system service.
