Summary

Buffer overflow in the xfs_readlink function in fs/xfs/xfs_vnodeops.c in XFS in the Linux kernel 2.6, when CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG is disabled, allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via an XFS image containing a symbolic link with a long pathname.

Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Buffer Overflow via Environment Variables
    This attack pattern involves causing a buffer overflow through manipulation of environment variables. Once the attacker finds that they can modify an environment variable, they may try to overflow associated buffers. This attack leverages implicit trust often placed in environment variables.
  • Overflow Buffers
    Buffer Overflow attacks target improper or missing bounds checking on buffer operations, typically triggered by input injected by an attacker. As a consequence, an attacker is able to write past the boundaries of allocated buffer regions in memory, causing a program crash or potentially redirection of execution as per the attackers' choice.
  • Client-side Injection-induced Buffer Overflow
    This type of attack exploits a buffer overflow vulnerability in targeted client software through injection of malicious content from a custom-built hostile service.
  • Filter Failure through Buffer Overflow
    In this attack, the idea is to cause an active filter to fail by causing an oversized transaction. An attacker may try to feed overly long input strings to the program in an attempt to overwhelm the filter (by causing a buffer overflow) and hoping that the filter does not fail securely (i.e. the user input is let into the system unfiltered).
  • MIME Conversion
    An attacker exploits a weakness in the MIME conversion routine to cause a buffer overflow and gain control over the mail server machine. The MIME system is designed to allow various different information formats to be interpreted and sent via e-mail. Attack points exist when data are converted to MIME compatible format and back.

    Eric Dumazet reported an information leak in the raw
    packet socket implementation.

  - CVE-2011-3353
    Han-Wen Nienhuys reported a local denial of service
    issue in the FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) support in
    the Linux kernel. Local users could cause a buffer
    overflow, leading to a kernel oops and resulting in a
    denial of service.

  - CVE-2011-4077
    Carlos Maiolino reported an issue in the XFS filesystem.
    A local user with the ability to mount a filesystem
    could corrupt memory resulting in a denial of service or
    possibly gain elevated privileges.

  - CVE-2011-4110
    David Howells reported an issue in the kernel's access
    key retention system which allow local users to cause a
    kernel oops leading to a denial of service.

  - CVE-2011-4127
    Paolo Bonzini of Red Hat reported an issue in the ioctl
    passthrough support for SCSI devices. Users with
    permission to access restricted portions of a device
    (e.g. a partition or a logical volume) can obtain access
    to the entire device by way of the SG_IO ioctl. This
    could be exploited by a local user or privileged VM
    guest to achieve a privilege escalation.

  - CVE-2011-4611
    Maynard Johnson reported an issue with the perf support
    on POWER7 systems that allows local users to cause a
    denial of service.

  - CVE-2011-4622
    Jan Kiszka reported an issue in the KVM PIT timer
    support. Local users with the permission to use KVM can
    cause a denial of service by starting a PIT timer
    without first setting up the irqchip.

  - CVE-2011-4914
    Ben Hutchings reported various bounds checking issues
    within the ROSE protocol support in the kernel. Remote
    users could possibly use this to gain access to
    sensitive memory or cause a denial of service."

A bug was discovered in the XFS filesystem's handling of pathnames. A
local attacker could exploit this to crash the system, leading to a
denial of service, or gain root privileges. (CVE-2011-4077)

A flaw was found in how the Linux kernel handles user-defined key
types. An unprivileged local user could exploit this to crash the
system. (CVE-2011-4110)

A flaw was found in the Journaling Block Device (JBD). A local
attacker able to mount ext3 or ext4 file systems could exploit this
to crash the system, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2011-4132)

Clement Lecigne discovered a bug in the HFS file system bounds
checking. When a malformed HFS file system is mounted a local user
could crash the system or gain root privileges. (CVE-2011-4330)");

    descriptionThe epoll implementation in the Linux kernel 2.6.37.2 and earlier does not properly traverse a tree of epoll file descriptors, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a crafted application that makes epoll_create and epoll_ctl system calls. Buffer overflow in the xfs_readlink function in fs/xfs/xfs_vnodeops.c in XFS in the Linux kernel 2.6, when CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG is disabled, allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via an XFS image containing a symbolic link with a long pathname. crypto/ghash-generic.c in the Linux kernel before 3.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and OOPS) or possibly have unspecified other impact by triggering a failed or missing ghash_setkey function call, followed by a (1) ghash_update function call or (2) ghash_final function call, as demonstrated by a write operation on an AF_ALG socket.

    descriptionUpdated kernel-rt packages that fix multiple security issues and various bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise MRG 2.1. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having important security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section. These packages contain the Linux kernel. Security fixes : * SG_IO ioctl SCSI requests on partitions or LVM volumes could be passed to the underlying block device, allowing a privileged user to bypass restrictions and gain read and write access (and be able to issue other SCSI commands) to the entire block device. (CVE-2011-4127, Important) * A local, unprivileged user could use an integer overflow flaw in drm_mode_dirtyfb_ioctl() to cause a denial of service or escalate their privileges. (CVE-2012-0044, Important) * A local, unprivileged user could use a flaw in the Performance Events implementation to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2011-2918, Moderate) * A local, unprivileged user could use flaws in the XFS file system implementation to cause a denial of service or escalate their privileges by mounting a specially crafted disk. (CVE-2011-4077, CVE-2012-0038, Moderate) * A local, unprivileged user could use a flaw in the Out of Memory (OOM) killer to monopolize memory, have their process skipped by the OOM killer, or cause other tasks to be terminated. (CVE-2011-4097, Moderate) * A local, unprivileged user could use a flaw in the key management facility to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2011-4110, Moderate) * A malicious Network File System version 4 (NFSv4) server could return a crafted reply to a GETACL request, causing a denial of service on the client. (CVE-2011-4131, Moderate) * A local attacker could use a flaw in the Journaling Block Device (JBD) to crash the system by mounting a specially crafted ext3 or ext4 disk. (CVE-2011-4132, Moderate) * A flaw in igmp_heard_query() could allow an attacker, who is able to send certain IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) packets to a target system, to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2012-0207, Moderate) * If lock contention during signal sending occurred when in a software interrupt handler that is using the per-CPU debug stack, the task could be scheduled out on the realtime kernel, possibly leading to debug stack corruption. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2012-0810, Moderate) Red Hat would like to thank Chen Haogang for reporting CVE-2012-0044; Wang Xi for reporting CVE-2012-0038; Shubham Goyal for reporting CVE-2011-4097; Andy Adamson for reporting CVE-2011-4131; and Simon McVittie for reporting CVE-2012-0207. Bug fixes : * When a sleeping task, waiting on a futex (fast userspace mutex), tried to get the spin_lock(hb->lock) RT-mutex, if the owner of the futex released the lock, the sleeping task was put on a futex proxy lock. Consequently, the sleeping task was blocked on two locks and eventually terminated in the BUG_ON() function. With this update, the WAKEUP_INPROGRESS pseudo-lock has been added to be used as a proxy lock. This pseudo-lock tells the sleeping task that it is being woken up so that the task no longer tries to get the second lock. Now, the futex code works as expected and sleeping tasks no longer crash in the described scenario. (BZ#784733) * When the CONFIG_CRYPTO_FIPS configuration option was disabled, some services such as sshd and ipsec, while working properly, returned warning messages regarding this missing option during start up. With this update, CONFIG_CRYPTO_FIPS has been enabled and no warning messages are now returned in the described scenario. (BZ#786145) * Previously, when a read operation on a loop device failed, the data successfully read from the device was not cleared and could eventually leak. This bug has been fixed and all data are now properly cleared in the described scenario. (BZ#761420) * Due to an assembler-sourced object, the perf utility (from the perf-rt package) for AMD64 and Intel 64 architectures contained an executable stack. This update adds the
