✅ Remediation
For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to: https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect. Workaround: This flaw can be mitigated by preventing the `uvcvideo` module from loading. See "How do I prevent a kernel module from loading automatically?"[1] for more information. Note that disabling this module will prevent UVC devices such as webcams or video capture devices from functioning properly. Preventing the `uvcvideo` module from loading is also an effective mitigation for OpenShift environments. Different methods of applying that mitigation are available, depending on the vulnerable cluster's configuration. See "USB CVE-2024-53104 Mitigation for OpenShift" [2] for more details. That document also details alternative mitigations available through the use of compliance profiles and USBGuard. 1: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 2: https://access.redhat.com/articles/7107058 Workaround: Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability.
