Summary

The sock_setsockopt function in net/core/sock.c in the Linux kernel before 3.5.7 does not ensure that a keepalive action is associated with a stream socket, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) by leveraging the ability to create a raw socket.

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Accessing, Modifying or Executing Executable Files
    An attack of this type exploits a system's configuration that allows an attacker to either directly access an executable file, for example through shell access; or in a possible worst case allows an attacker to upload a file and then execute it. Web servers, ftp servers, and message oriented middleware systems which have many integration points are particularly vulnerable, because both the programmers and the administrators must be in synch regarding the interfaces and the correct privileges for each interface.
  • Leverage Executable Code in Non-Executable Files
    An attack of this type exploits a system's trust in configuration and resource files, when the executable loads the resource (such as an image file or configuration file) the attacker has modified the file to either execute malicious code directly or manipulate the target process (e.g. application server) to execute based on the malicious configuration parameters. Since systems are increasingly interrelated mashing up resources from local and remote sources the possibility of this attack occurring is high. The attack can be directed at a client system, such as causing buffer overrun through loading seemingly benign image files, as in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS04-028 where specially crafted JPEG files could cause a buffer overrun once loaded into the browser. Another example targets clients reading pdf files. In this case the attacker simply appends javascript to the end of a legitimate url for a pdf (http://www.gnucitizen.org/blog/danger-danger-danger/) http://path/to/pdf/file.pdf#whatever_name_you_want=javascript:your_code_here The client assumes that they are reading a pdf, but the attacker has modified the resource and loaded executable javascript into the client's browser process. The attack can also target server processes. The attacker edits the resource or configuration file, for example a web.xml file used to configure security permissions for a J2EE app server, adding role name "public" grants all users with the public role the ability to use the administration functionality. The server trusts its configuration file to be correct, but when they are manipulated, the attacker gains full control.
  • Blue Boxing
    This type of attack against older telephone switches and trunks has been around for decades. A tone is sent by an adversary to impersonate a supervisor signal which has the effect of rerouting or usurping command of the line. While the US infrastructure proper may not contain widespread vulnerabilities to this type of attack, many companies are connected globally through call centers and business process outsourcing. These international systems may be operated in countries which have not upgraded Telco infrastructure and so are vulnerable to Blue boxing. Blue boxing is a result of failure on the part of the system to enforce strong authorization for administrative functions. While the infrastructure is different than standard current applications like web applications, there are historical lessons to be learned to upgrade the access control for administrative functions.
  • Restful Privilege Elevation
    Rest uses standard HTTP (Get, Put, Delete) style permissions methods, but these are not necessarily correlated generally with back end programs. Strict interpretation of HTTP get methods means that these HTTP Get services should not be used to delete information on the server, but there is no access control mechanism to back up this logic. This means that unless the services are properly ACL'd and the application's service implementation are following these guidelines then an HTTP request can easily execute a delete or update on the server side. The attacker identifies a HTTP Get URL such as http://victimsite/updateOrder, which calls out to a program to update orders on a database or other resource. The URL is not idempotent so the request can be submitted multiple times by the attacker, additionally, the attacker may be able to exploit the URL published as a Get method that actually performs updates (instead of merely retrieving data). This may result in malicious or inadvertent altering of data on the server.
  • Target Programs with Elevated Privileges
    This attack targets programs running with elevated privileges. The attacker would try to leverage a bug in the running program and get arbitrary code to execute with elevated privileges. For instance an attacker would look for programs that write to the system directories or registry keys (such as HKLM, which stores a number of critical Windows environment variables). These programs are typically running with elevated privileges and have usually not been designed with security in mind. Such programs are excellent exploit targets because they yield lots of power when they break. The malicious user try to execute its code at the same level as a privileged system call.

    descriptionThe SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 SP4 LTSS kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes. The following security bugs have been fixed : CVE-2015-2041: A information leak in the llc2_timeout_table was fixed (bnc#919007). CVE-2014-9322: arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S in the Linux kernel did not properly handle faults associated with the Stack Segment (SS) segment register, which allowed local users to gain privileges by triggering an IRET instruction that leads to access to a GS Base address from the wrong space (bnc#910251). CVE-2014-9090: The do_double_fault function in arch/x86/kernel/traps.c in the Linux kernel did not properly handle faults associated with the Stack Segment (SS) segment register, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (panic) via a modify_ldt system call, as demonstrated by sigreturn_32 in the 1-clock-tests test suite (bnc#907818). CVE-2014-4667: The sctp_association_free function in net/sctp/associola.c in the Linux kernel did not properly manage a certain backlog value, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (socket outage) via a crafted SCTP packet (bnc#885422). CVE-2014-3673: The SCTP implementation in the Linux kernel allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a malformed ASCONF chunk, related to net/sctp/sm_make_chunk.c and net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c (bnc#902346). CVE-2014-3185: Multiple buffer overflows in the command_port_read_callback function in drivers/usb/serial/whiteheat.c in the Whiteheat USB Serial Driver in the Linux kernel allowed physically proximate attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) via a crafted device that provides a large amount of (1) EHCI or (2) XHCI data associated with a bulk response (bnc#896391). CVE-2014-3184: The report_fixup functions in the HID subsystem in the Linux kernel might have allowed physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write) via a crafted device that provides a small report descriptor, related to (1) drivers/hid/hid-cherry.c, (2) drivers/hid/hid-kye.c, (3) drivers/hid/hid-lg.c, (4) drivers/hid/hid-monterey.c, (5) drivers/hid/hid-petalynx.c, and (6) drivers/hid/hid-sunplus.c (bnc#896390). CVE-2014-1874: The security_context_to_sid_core function in security/selinux/ss/services.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) by leveraging the CAP_MAC_ADMIN capability to set a zero-length security context (bnc#863335). CVE-2014-0181: The Netlink implementation in the Linux kernel did not provide a mechanism for authorizing socket operations based on the opener of a socket, which allowed local users to bypass intended access restrictions and modify network configurations by using a Netlink socket for the (1) stdout or (2) stderr of a setuid program (bnc#875051). CVE-2013-4299: Interpretation conflict in drivers/md/dm-snap-persistent.c in the Linux kernel allowed remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information or modify data via a crafted mapping to a snapshot block device (bnc#846404). CVE-2013-2147: The HP Smart Array controller disk-array driver and Compaq SMART2 controller disk-array driver in the Linux kernel did not initialize certain data structures, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via (1) a crafted IDAGETPCIINFO command for a /dev/ida device, related to the ida_locked_ioctl function in drivers/block/cpqarray.c or (2) a crafted CCISS_PASSTHRU32 command for a /dev/cciss device, related to the cciss_ioctl32_passthru function in drivers/block/cciss.c (bnc#823260). CVE-2012-6657: The sock_setsockopt function in net/core/sock.c in the Linux kernel did not ensure that a keepalive action is associated with a stream socket, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) by leveraging the ability to create a raw socket (bnc#896779). CVE-2012-3400: Heap-based buffer overflow in the udf_load_logicalvol function in fs/udf/super.c in the Linux kernel allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted UDF filesystem (bnc#769784). CVE-2012-2319: Multiple buffer overflows in the hfsplus filesystem implementation in the Linux kernel allowed local users to gain privileges via a crafted HFS plus filesystem, a related issue to CVE-2009-4020 (bnc#760902). CVE-2012-2313: The rio_ioctl function in drivers/net/ethernet/dlink/dl2k.c in the Linux kernel did not restrict access to the SIOCSMIIREG command, which allowed local users to write data to an Ethernet adapter via an ioctl call (bnc#758813). CVE-2011-4132: The cleanup_journal_tail function in the Journaling Block Device (JBD) functionality in the Linux kernel 2.6 allowed local users to cause a denial of service (assertion error and kernel oops) via an ext3 or ext4 image with an

    Red Hat Product Security 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.
    
    The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux
    operating system.
    
    * A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel handled GS segment
    register base switching when recovering from a #SS (stack segment)
    fault on an erroneous return to user space. A local, unprivileged user
    could use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system.
    (CVE-2014-9322, Important)
    
    * A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's SCTP implementation
    handled malformed or duplicate Address Configuration Change Chunks
    (ASCONF). A remote attacker could use either of these flaws to crash
    the system. (CVE-2014-3673, CVE-2014-3687, Important)
    
    * A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's SCTP implementation
    handled the association's output queue. A remote attacker could send
    specially crafted packets that would cause the system to use an
    excessive amount of memory, leading to a denial of service.
    (CVE-2014-3688, Important)
    
    * A stack overflow flaw caused by infinite recursion was found in the
    way the Linux kernel's UDF file system implementation processed
    indirect ICBs. An attacker with physical access to the system could
    use a specially crafted UDF image to crash the system. (CVE-2014-6410,
    Low)
    
    * It was found that the Linux kernel's networking implementation did
    not correctly handle the setting of the keepalive socket option on raw
    sockets. A local user able to create a raw socket could use this flaw
    to crash the system. (CVE-2012-6657, Low)
    
    * It was found that the parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal() function of
    the Linux kernel's ISOFS implementation did not correctly check
    relocated directories when processing Rock Ridge child link (CL) tags.
    An attacker with physical access to the system could use a specially
    crafted ISO image to crash the system or, potentially, escalate their
    privileges on the system. (CVE-2014-5471, CVE-2014-5472, Low)
    
    Red Hat would like to thank Andy Lutomirski for reporting
    CVE-2014-9322. The CVE-2014-3673 issue was discovered by Liu Wei of
    Red Hat.
    
    Bug fixes :
    
    * This update fixes a race condition issue between the
    sock_queue_err_skb function and sk_forward_alloc handling in the
    socket error queue (MSG_ERRQUEUE), which could occasionally cause the
    kernel, for example when using PTP, to incorrectly track allocated
    memory for the error queue, in which case a traceback would occur in
    the system log. (BZ#1155427)
    
    * The zcrypt device driver did not detect certain crypto cards and the
    related domains for crypto adapters on System z and s390x
    architectures. Consequently, it was not possible to run the system on
    new crypto hardware. This update enables toleration mode for such
    devices so that the system can make use of newer crypto hardware.
    (BZ#1158311)
    
    * After mounting and unmounting an XFS file system several times
    consecutively, the umount command occasionally became unresponsive.
    This was caused by the xlog_cil_force_lsn() function that was not
    waiting for completion as expected. With this update,
    xlog_cil_force_lsn() has been modified to correctly wait for
    completion, thus fixing this bug. (BZ#1158325)
    
    * When using the ixgbe adapter with disabled LRO and the tx-usec or
    rs-usec variables set to 0, transmit interrupts could not be set lower
    than the default of 8 buffered tx frames. Consequently, a delay of TCP
    transfer occurred. The restriction of a minimum of 8 buffered frames
    has been removed, and the TCP delay no longer occurs. (BZ#1158326)
    
    * The offb driver has been updated for the QEMU standard VGA adapter,
    fixing an incorrect displaying of colors issue. (BZ#1158328)
    
    * Under certain circumstances, when a discovered MTU expired, the IPv6
    connection became unavailable for a short period of time. This bug has
    been fixed, and the connection now works as expected. (BZ#1161418)
    
    * A low throughput occurred when using the dm-thin driver to write to
    unprovisioned or shared chunks for a thin pool with the chunk size
    bigger than the max_sectors_kb variable. (BZ#1161420)
    
    * Large write workloads on thin LVs could cause the iozone and
    smallfile utilities to terminate unexpectedly. (BZ#1161421)"

    "  - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's SCTP
        implementation handled malformed or duplicate Address
        Configuration Change Chunks (ASCONF). A remote attacker
        could use either of these flaws to crash the system.
        (CVE-2014-3673, CVE-2014-3687, Important)
    
      - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's SCTP
        implementation handled the association's output queue. A
        remote attacker could send specially crafted packets
        that would cause the system to use an excessive amount
        of memory, leading to a denial of service.
        (CVE-2014-3688, Important)
    
      - A stack overflow flaw caused by infinite recursion was
        found in the way the Linux kernel's UDF file system
        implementation processed indirect ICBs. An attacker with
        physical access to the system could use a specially
        crafted UDF image to crash the system. (CVE-2014-6410,
        Low)
    
      - It was found that the Linux kernel's networking
        implementation did not correctly handle the setting of
        the keepalive socket option on raw sockets. A local user
        able to create a raw socket could use this flaw to crash
        the system. (CVE-2012-6657, Low)
    
      - It was found that the parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal()
        function of the Linux kernel's ISOFS implementation did
        not correctly check relocated directories when
        processing Rock Ridge child link (CL) tags. An attacker
        with physical access to the system could use a specially
        crafted ISO image to crash the system or, potentially,
        escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2014-5471,
        CVE-2014-5472, Low)
    
    Bug fixes :
    
      - This update fixes a race condition issue between the
        sock_queue_err_skb function and sk_forward_alloc
        handling in the socket error queue (MSG_ERRQUEUE), which
        could occasionally cause the kernel, for example when
        using PTP, to incorrectly track allocated memory for the
        error queue, in which case a traceback would occur in
        the system log.
    
      - The zcrypt device driver did not detect certain crypto
        cards and the related domains for crypto adapters on
        System z and s390x architectures. Consequently, it was
        not possible to run the system on new crypto hardware.
        This update enables toleration mode for such devices so
        that the system can make use of newer crypto hardware.
    
      - After mounting and unmounting an XFS file system several
        times consecutively, the umount command occasionally
        became unresponsive. This was caused by the
        xlog_cil_force_lsn() function that was not waiting for
        completion as expected. With this update,
        xlog_cil_force_lsn() has been modified to correctly wait
        for completion, thus fixing this bug.
    
      - When using the ixgbe adapter with disabled LRO and the
        tx-usec or rs- usec variables set to 0, transmit
        interrupts could not be set lower than the default of 8
        buffered tx frames. Consequently, a delay of TCP
        transfer occurred. The restriction of a minimum of 8
        buffered frames has been removed, and the TCP delay no
        longer occurs.
    
      - The offb driver has been updated for the QEMU standard
        VGA adapter, fixing an incorrect displaying of colors
        issue.
    
      - Under certain circumstances, when a discovered MTU
        expired, the IPv6 connection became unavailable for a
        short period of time. This bug has been fixed, and the
        connection now works as expected.
    
      - A low throughput occurred when using the dm-thin driver
        to write to unprovisioned or shared chunks for a thin
        pool with the chunk size bigger than the max_sectors_kb
        variable.
    
      - Large write workloads on thin LVs could cause the iozone
        and smallfile utilities to terminate unexpectedly."

    "From Red Hat Security Advisory 2014:1997 :
    
    Updated kernel packages that fix multiple security issues and several
    bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
    
    Red Hat Product Security 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.
    
    The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux
    operating system.
    
    * A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel handled GS segment
    register base switching when recovering from a #SS (stack segment)
    fault on an erroneous return to user space. A local, unprivileged user
    could use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system.
    (CVE-2014-9322, Important)
    
    * A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's SCTP implementation
    handled malformed or duplicate Address Configuration Change Chunks
    (ASCONF). A remote attacker could use either of these flaws to crash
    the system. (CVE-2014-3673, CVE-2014-3687, Important)
    
    * A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's SCTP implementation
    handled the association's output queue. A remote attacker could send
    specially crafted packets that would cause the system to use an
    excessive amount of memory, leading to a denial of service.
    (CVE-2014-3688, Important)
    
    * A stack overflow flaw caused by infinite recursion was found in the
    way the Linux kernel's UDF file system implementation processed
    indirect ICBs. An attacker with physical access to the system could
    use a specially crafted UDF image to crash the system. (CVE-2014-6410,
    Low)
    
    * It was found that the Linux kernel's networking implementation did
    not correctly handle the setting of the keepalive socket option on raw
    sockets. A local user able to create a raw socket could use this flaw
    to crash the system. (CVE-2012-6657, Low)
    
    * It was found that the parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal() function of
    the Linux kernel's ISOFS implementation did not correctly check
    relocated directories when processing Rock Ridge child link (CL) tags.
    An attacker with physical access to the system could use a specially
    crafted ISO image to crash the system or, potentially, escalate their
    privileges on the system. (CVE-2014-5471, CVE-2014-5472, Low)
    
    Red Hat would like to thank Andy Lutomirski for reporting
    CVE-2014-9322. The CVE-2014-3673 issue was discovered by Liu Wei of
    Red Hat.
    
    Bug fixes :
    
    * This update fixes a race condition issue between the
    sock_queue_err_skb function and sk_forward_alloc handling in the
    socket error queue (MSG_ERRQUEUE), which could occasionally cause the
    kernel, for example when using PTP, to incorrectly track allocated
    memory for the error queue, in which case a traceback would occur in
    the system log. (BZ#1155427)
    
    * The zcrypt device driver did not detect certain crypto cards and the
    related domains for crypto adapters on System z and s390x
    architectures. Consequently, it was not possible to run the system on
    new crypto hardware. This update enables toleration mode for such
    devices so that the system can make use of newer crypto hardware.
    (BZ#1158311)
    
    * After mounting and unmounting an XFS file system several times
    consecutively, the umount command occasionally became unresponsive.
    This was caused by the xlog_cil_force_lsn() function that was not
    waiting for completion as expected. With this update,
    xlog_cil_force_lsn() has been modified to correctly wait for
    completion, thus fixing this bug. (BZ#1158325)
    
    * When using the ixgbe adapter with disabled LRO and the tx-usec or
    rs-usec variables set to 0, transmit interrupts could not be set lower
    than the default of 8 buffered tx frames. Consequently, a delay of TCP
    transfer occurred. The restriction of a minimum of 8 buffered frames
    has been removed, and the TCP delay no longer occurs. (BZ#1158326)
    
    * The offb driver has been updated for the QEMU standard VGA adapter,
    fixing an incorrect displaying of colors issue. (BZ#1158328)
    
    * Under certain circumstances, when a discovered MTU expired, the IPv6
    connection became unavailable for a short period of time. This bug has
    been fixed, and the connection now works as expected. (BZ#1161418)
    
    * A low throughput occurred when using the dm-thin driver to write to
    unprovisioned or shared chunks for a thin pool with the chunk size
    bigger than the max_sectors_kb variable. (BZ#1161420)
    
    * Large write workloads on thin LVs could cause the iozone and
    smallfile utilities to terminate unexpectedly. (BZ#1161421)"

    NASL idSUSE_SU-2015-0652-1.NASL
    descriptionThe SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 Service Pack 1 LTSS kernel was updated to fix security issues on kernels on the x86_64 architecture. The following security bugs have been fixed : - CVE-2013-4299: Interpretation conflict in drivers/md/dm-snap-persistent.c in the Linux kernel through 3.11.6 allowed remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information or modify data via a crafted mapping to a snapshot block device (bnc#846404). - CVE-2014-8160: SCTP firewalling failed until the SCTP module was loaded (bnc#913059). - CVE-2014-9584: The parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal function in fs/isofs/rock.c in the Linux kernel before 3.18.2 did not validate a length value in the Extensions Reference (ER) System Use Field, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a crafted iso9660 image (bnc#912654). - CVE-2014-9585: The vdso_addr function in arch/x86/vdso/vma.c in the Linux kernel through 3.18.2 did not properly choose memory locations for the vDSO area, which made it easier for local users to bypass the ASLR protection mechanism by guessing a location at the end of a PMD (bnc#912705). - CVE-2014-9420: The rock_continue function in fs/isofs/rock.c in the Linux kernel through 3.18.1 did not restrict the number of Rock Ridge continuation entries, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (infinite loop, and system crash or hang) via a crafted iso9660 image (bnc#911325). - CVE-2014-0181: The Netlink implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.14.1 did not provide a mechanism for authorizing socket operations based on the opener of a socket, which allowed local users to bypass intended access restrictions and modify network configurations by using a Netlink socket for the (1) stdout or (2) stderr of a setuid program (bnc#875051). - CVE-2010-5313: Race condition in arch/x86/kvm/x86.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.38 allowed L2 guest OS users to cause a denial of service (L1 guest OS crash) via a crafted instruction that triggers an L2 emulation failure report, a similar issue to CVE-2014-7842 (bnc#907822). - CVE-2014-7842: Race condition in arch/x86/kvm/x86.c in the Linux kernel before 3.17.4 allowed guest OS users to cause a denial of service (guest OS crash) via a crafted application that performs an MMIO transaction or a PIO transaction to trigger a guest userspace emulation error report, a similar issue to CVE-2010-5313 (bnc#905312). - CVE-2014-3688: The SCTP implementation in the Linux kernel before 3.17.4 allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering a large number of chunks in an associations output queue, as demonstrated by ASCONF probes, related to net/sctp/inqueue.c and net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c (bnc#902351). - CVE-2014-3687: The sctp_assoc_lookup_asconf_ack function in net/sctp/associola.c in the SCTP implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.17.2 allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) via duplicate ASCONF chunks that trigger an incorrect uncork within the side-effect interpreter (bnc#902349). - CVE-2014-3673: The SCTP implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.17.2 allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a malformed ASCONF chunk, related to net/sctp/sm_make_chunk.c and net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c (bnc#902346). - CVE-2014-7841: The sctp_process_param function in net/sctp/sm_make_chunk.c in the SCTP implementation in the Linux kernel before 3.17.4, when ASCONF is used, allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a malformed INIT chunk (bnc#905100). - CVE-2014-8709: The ieee80211_fragment function in net/mac80211/tx.c in the Linux kernel before 3.13.5 did not properly maintain a certain tail pointer, which allowed remote attackers to obtain sensitive cleartext information by reading packets (bnc#904700). - CVE-2013-7263: The Linux kernel before 3.12.4 updated certain length values before ensuring that associated data structures have been initialized, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a (1) recvfrom, (2) recvmmsg, or (3) recvmsg system call, related to net/ipv4/ping.c, net/ipv4/raw.c, net/ipv4/udp.c, net/ipv6/raw.c, and net/ipv6/udp.c (bnc#857643). - CVE-2012-6657: The sock_setsockopt function in net/core/sock.c in the Linux kernel before 3.5.7 did not ensure that a keepalive action is associated with a stream socket, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) by leveraging the ability to create a raw socket (bnc#896779). - CVE-2014-3185: Multiple buffer overflows in the command_port_read_callback function in drivers/usb/serial/whiteheat.c in the Whiteheat USB Serial Driver in the Linux kernel before 3.16.2 allowed physically proximate attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) via a crafted device that provides a large amount of (1) EHCI or (2) XHCI data associated with a bulk response (bnc#896391). - CVE-2014-3184: The report_fixup functions in the HID subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.16.2 might allow physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write) via a crafted device that provides a small report descriptor, related to (1) drivers/hid/hid-cherry.c, (2) drivers/hid/hid-kye.c, (3) drivers/hid/hid-lg.c, (4) drivers/hid/hid-monterey.c, (5) drivers/hid/hid-petalynx.c, and (6) drivers/hid/hid-sunplus.c (bnc#896390). The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details. Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
