    descriptionThe SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP2 kernel was updated to 4.4.38 to receive various security and bugfixes. The following security bugs were fixed : - CVE-2015-1350: The VFS subsystem in the Linux kernel 3.x provides an incomplete set of requirements for setattr operations that underspecifies removing extended privilege attributes, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (capability stripping) via a failed invocation of a system call, as demonstrated by using chown to remove a capability from the ping or Wireshark dumpcap program (bnc#914939). - CVE-2015-8964: The tty_set_termios_ldisc function in drivers/tty/tty_ldisc.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by reading a tty data structure (bnc#1010507). - CVE-2016-7039: The IP stack in the Linux kernel allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (stack consumption and panic) or possibly have unspecified other impact by triggering use of the GRO path for large crafted packets, as demonstrated by packets that contain only VLAN headers, a related issue to CVE-2016-8666 (bnc#1001486). - CVE-2016-7042: The proc_keys_show function in security/keys/proc.c in the Linux kernel through 4.8.2, when the GNU Compiler Collection (gcc) stack protector is enabled, uses an incorrect buffer size for certain timeout data, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (stack memory corruption and panic) by reading the /proc/keys file (bnc#1004517). - CVE-2016-7425: The arcmsr_iop_message_xfer function in drivers/scsi/arcmsr/arcmsr_hba.c in the Linux kernel did not restrict a certain length field, which allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) via an ARCMSR_MESSAGE_WRITE_WQBUFFER control code (bnc#999932). - CVE-2016-7913: The xc2028_set_config function in drivers/media/tuners/tuner-xc2028.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via vectors involving omission of the firmware name from a certain data structure (bnc#1010478). - CVE-2016-7917: The nfnetlink_rcv_batch function in net/netfilter/nfnetlink.c in the Linux kernel did not check whether a batch message

    "The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP2 kernel was updated to 4.4.38 to
    receive various security and bugfixes. The following security bugs
    were fixed :
    
      - CVE-2015-1350: The VFS subsystem in the Linux kernel 3.x
        provides an incomplete set of requirements for setattr
        operations that underspecifies removing extended
        privilege attributes, which allowed local users to cause
        a denial of service (capability stripping) via a failed
        invocation of a system call, as demonstrated by using
        chown to remove a capability from the ping or Wireshark
        dumpcap program (bnc#914939).
    
      - CVE-2015-8964: The tty_set_termios_ldisc function in
        drivers/tty/tty_ldisc.c in the Linux kernel allowed
        local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel
        memory by reading a tty data structure (bnc#1010507).
    
      - CVE-2016-7039: The IP stack in the Linux kernel allowed
        remote attackers to cause a denial of service (stack
        consumption and panic) or possibly have unspecified
        other impact by triggering use of the GRO path for large
        crafted packets, as demonstrated by packets that contain
        only VLAN headers, a related issue to CVE-2016-8666
        (bnc#1001486).
    
      - CVE-2016-7042: The proc_keys_show function in
        security/keys/proc.c in the Linux kernel through 4.8.2,
        when the GNU Compiler Collection (gcc) stack protector
        is enabled, uses an incorrect buffer size for certain
        timeout data, which allowed local users to cause a
        denial of service (stack memory corruption and panic) by
        reading the /proc/keys file (bnc#1004517).
    
      - CVE-2016-7425: The arcmsr_iop_message_xfer function in
        drivers/scsi/arcmsr/arcmsr_hba.c in the Linux kernel did
        not restrict a certain length field, which allowed local
        users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service
        (heap-based buffer overflow) via an
        ARCMSR_MESSAGE_WRITE_WQBUFFER control code (bnc#999932).
    
      - CVE-2016-7913: The xc2028_set_config function in
        drivers/media/tuners/tuner-xc2028.c in the Linux kernel
        allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial
        of service (use-after-free) via vectors involving
        omission of the firmware name from a certain data
        structure (bnc#1010478).
    
      - CVE-2016-7917: The nfnetlink_rcv_batch function in
        net/netfilter/nfnetlink.c in the Linux kernel did not
        check whether a batch message's length field is large
        enough, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive
        information from kernel memory or cause a denial of
        service (infinite loop or out-of-bounds read) by
        leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability (bnc#1010444).
    
      - CVE-2016-8645: The TCP stack in the Linux kernel
        mishandled skb truncation, which allowed local users to
        cause a denial of service (system crash) via a crafted
        application that made sendto system calls, related to
        net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c and net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c
        (bnc#1009969).
    
      - CVE-2016-8666: The IP stack in the Linux kernel allowed
        remote attackers to cause a denial of service (stack
        consumption and panic) or possibly have unspecified
        other impact by triggering use of the GRO path for
        packets with tunnel stacking, as demonstrated by
        interleaved IPv4 headers and GRE headers, a related
        issue to CVE-2016-7039 (bnc#1003964).
    
      - CVE-2016-9083: drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci.c in the Linux
        kernel allowed local users to bypass integer overflow
        checks, and cause a denial of service (memory
        corruption) or have unspecified other impact, by
        leveraging access to a vfio PCI device file for a
        VFIO_DEVICE_SET_IRQS ioctl call, aka a 'state machine
        confusion bug (bnc#1007197).
    
      - CVE-2016-9084: drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_intrs.c in the
        Linux kernel misuses the kzalloc function, which allowed
        local users to cause a denial of service (integer
        overflow) or have unspecified other impact by leveraging
        access to a vfio PCI device file (bnc#1007197).
    
      - CVE-2016-9793: A bug in SO_{SND|RCV}BUFFORCE
        setsockopt() implementation was fixed, which allowed
        CAP_NET_ADMIN users to cause memory corruption.
        (bsc#1013531).
    
      - CVE-2016-9919: The icmp6_send function in
        net/ipv6/icmp.c in the Linux kernel omits a certain
        check of the dst data structure, which allowed remote
        attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) via a
        fragmented IPv6 packet (bnc#1014701).
    
    The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for
    details.

(CVE-2016-7917) Qian Zhang discovered a heap-based buffer overflow in the tipc_msg_build() function in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code with administrative privileges. (CVE-2016-8632) It was discovered that the keyring implementation in the Linux kernel in some situations did not prevent special internal keyrings from being joined by userspace keyrings. A privileged local attacker could use this to bypass module verification. (CVE-2016-9604) Dmitry Vyukov discovered that KVM implementation in the Linux kernel improperly emulated the VMXON instruction. A local attacker in a guest OS could use this to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) in the host OS.

    descriptionThe remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04, has kernel packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities: - Integer overflow in the aio_setup_single_vector function in fs/aio.c in the Linux kernel 4.0 allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via a large AIO iovec. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of a CVE-2012-6701 regression. (CVE-2015-8830) - A weakness was found in the Linux ASLR implementation. Any user able to running 32-bit applications in a x86 machine can disable ASLR by setting the RLIMIT_STACK resource to unlimited. (CVE-2016-3672) - The xc2028_set_config function in drivers/media/tuners/tuner-xc2028.c in the Linux kernel before 4.6 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via vectors involving omission of the firmware name from a certain data structure. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2016-7913) - Use-after-free vulnerability in the snd_pcm_info() function in the ALSA subsystem in the Linux kernel allows attackers to induce a kernel memory corruption and possibly crash or lock up a system. Due to the nature of the flaw, a privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2017-0861) - A reachable assertion failure flaw was found in the Linux kernel built with KVM virtualisation(CONFIG_KVM) support with Virtual Function I/O feature (CONFIG_VFIO) enabled. This failure could occur if a malicious guest device sent a virtual interrupt (guest IRQ) with a larger (>1024) index value. (CVE-2017-1000252) - Linux kernel Virtualization Module (CONFIG_KVM) for the Intel processor family (CONFIG_KVM_INTEL) is vulnerable to a DoS issue. It could occur if a guest was to flood the I/O port 0x80 with write requests. A guest user could use this flaw to crash the host kernel resulting in DoS. (CVE-2017-1000407) - A flaw was found in the processing of incoming L2CAP bluetooth commands. Uninitialized stack variables can be sent to an attacker leaking data in kernel address space. (CVE-2017-1000410) - A race condition was found in the Linux kernel before version 4.11-rc1 in

      script_set_attribute(attribute:"description", value:
    "The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04, has kernel packages installed that are affected by
    multiple vulnerabilities:
    
      - Integer overflow in the aio_setup_single_vector function
        in fs/aio.c in the Linux kernel 4.0 allows local users
        to cause a denial of service or possibly have
        unspecified other impact via a large AIO iovec. NOTE:
        this vulnerability exists because of a CVE-2012-6701
        regression. (CVE-2015-8830)
    
      - A weakness was found in the Linux ASLR implementation.
        Any user able to running 32-bit applications in a x86
        machine can disable ASLR by setting the RLIMIT_STACK
        resource to unlimited. (CVE-2016-3672)
    
      - The xc2028_set_config function in
        drivers/media/tuners/tuner-xc2028.c in the Linux kernel
        before 4.6 allows local users to gain privileges or
        cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via vectors
        involving omission of the firmware name from a certain
        data structure. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege
        escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we
        believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2016-7913)
    
      - Use-after-free vulnerability in the snd_pcm_info()
        function in the ALSA subsystem in the Linux kernel
        allows attackers to induce a kernel memory corruption
        and possibly crash or lock up a system. Due to the
        nature of the flaw, a privilege escalation cannot be
        fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely.
        (CVE-2017-0861)
    
      - A reachable assertion failure flaw was found in the
        Linux kernel built with KVM virtualisation(CONFIG_KVM)
        support with Virtual Function I/O feature (CONFIG_VFIO)
        enabled. This failure could occur if a malicious guest
        device sent a virtual interrupt (guest IRQ) with a
        larger (>1024) index value. (CVE-2017-1000252)
    
      - Linux kernel Virtualization Module (CONFIG_KVM) for the
        Intel processor family (CONFIG_KVM_INTEL) is vulnerable
        to a DoS issue. It could occur if a guest was to flood
        the I/O port 0x80 with write requests. A guest user
        could use this flaw to crash the host kernel resulting
        in DoS. (CVE-2017-1000407)
    
      - A flaw was found in the processing of incoming L2CAP
        bluetooth commands. Uninitialized stack variables can be
        sent to an attacker leaking data in kernel address
        space. (CVE-2017-1000410)
    
      - A race condition was found in the Linux kernel before
        version 4.11-rc1 in 'fs/timerfd.c' file which allows a
        local user to cause a kernel list corruption or use-
        after-free via simultaneous operations with a file
        descriptor which leverage improper 'might_cancel'
        queuing. An unprivileged local user could use this flaw
        to cause a denial of service of the system. Due to the
        nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully
        ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely.
        (CVE-2017-10661)
    
      - Linux kernel built with the KVM visualization support
        (CONFIG_KVM), with nested visualization (nVMX) feature
        enabled (nested=1), is vulnerable to a crash due to
        disabled external interrupts. As L2 guest could access
        (r/w) hardware CR8 register of the host(L0). In a nested
        visualization setup, L2 guest user could use this flaw
        to potentially crash the host(L0) resulting in DoS.
        (CVE-2017-12154)
    
      - It was found that in the Linux kernel through v4.14-rc5,
        bio_map_user_iov() and bio_unmap_user() in 'block/bio.c'
        do unbalanced pages refcounting if IO vector has small
        consecutive buffers belonging to the same page.
        bio_add_pc_page() merges them into one, but the page
        reference is never dropped, causing a memory leak and
        possible system lockup due to out-of-memory condition.
        (CVE-2017-12190)
    
      - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of
        valid_master_desc() in which a memory buffer would be
        compared to a userspace value with an incorrect size of
        comparison. By bruteforcing the comparison, an attacker
        could determine what was in memory after the description
        and possibly obtain sensitive information from kernel
        memory. (CVE-2017-13305)
    
      - A use-after-free vulnerability was found in a network
        namespaces code affecting the Linux kernel since
        v4.0-rc1 through v4.15-rc5. The function
        get_net_ns_by_id() does not check for the net::count
        value after it has found a peer network in netns_ids idr
        which could lead to double free and memory corruption.
        This vulnerability could allow an unprivileged local
        user to induce kernel memory corruption on the system,
        leading to a crash. Due to the nature of the flaw,
        privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although
        it is thought to be unlikely. (CVE-2017-15129)
    
      - A use-after-free vulnerability was found when issuing an
        ioctl to a sound device. This could allow a user to
        exploit a race condition and create memory corruption or
        possibly privilege escalation. (CVE-2017-15265)
    
      - A flaw was found in the implementation of associative
        arrays where the add_key systemcall and KEYCTL_UPDATE
        operations allowed for a NULL payload with a nonzero
        length. When accessing the payload within this length
        parameters value, an unprivileged user could trivially
        cause a NULL pointer dereference (kernel oops).
        (CVE-2017-15274)
    
      - The net/netfilter/nfnetlink_cthelper.c function in the
        Linux kernel through 4.14.4 does not require the
        CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for new, get, and del
        operations. This allows local users to bypass intended
        access restrictions because the nfnl_cthelper_list data
        structure is shared across all net namespaces.
        (CVE-2017-17448)
    
      - The __netlink_deliver_tap_skb function in
        net/netlink/af_netlink.c in the Linux kernel, through
        4.14.4, does not restrict observations of Netlink
        messages to a single net namespace, when CONFIG_NLMON is
        enabled. This allows local users to obtain sensitive
        information by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability
        to sniff an nlmon interface for all Netlink activity on
        the system. (CVE-2017-17449)
    
      - The usb_destroy_configuration() function, in
        'drivers/usb/core/config.c' in the USB core subsystem,
        in the Linux kernel through 4.14.5 does not consider the
        maximum number of configurations and interfaces before
        attempting to release resources. This allows local users
        to cause a denial of service, due to out-of-bounds write
        access, or possibly have unspecified other impact via a
        crafted USB device. Due to the nature of the flaw,
        privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although
        we believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2017-17558)
    
      - The Salsa20 encryption algorithm in the Linux kernel,
        before 4.14.8, does not correctly handle zero-length
        inputs. This allows a local attacker the ability to use
        the AF_ALG-based skcipher interface to cause a denial of
        service (uninitialized-memory free and kernel crash) or
        have an unspecified other impact by executing a crafted
        sequence of system calls that use the blkcipher_walk
        API. Both the generic implementation
        (crypto/salsa20_generic.c) and x86 implementation
        (arch/x86/crypto/salsa20_glue.c) of Salsa20 are
        vulnerable. (CVE-2017-17805)
    
      - The tcpmss_mangle_packet function in
        net/netfilter/xt_TCPMSS.c in the Linux kernel before
        4.11, and 4.9.x before 4.9.36, allows remote attackers
        to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and memory
        corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact by
        leveraging the presence of xt_TCPMSS in an iptables
        action. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege
        escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we
        believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2017-18017)
    
      - The Linux kernel, before version 4.14.3, is vulnerable
        to a denial of service in
        drivers/md/dm.c:dm_get_from_kobject() which can be
        caused by local users leveraging a race condition with
        __dm_destroy() during creation and removal of DM
        devices. Only privileged local users (with CAP_SYS_ADMIN
        capability) can directly perform the ioctl operations
        for dm device creation and removal and this would
        typically be outside the direct control of the
        unprivileged attacker. (CVE-2017-18203)
    
      - The madvise_willneed function in the Linux kernel allows
        local users to cause a denial of service (infinite loop)
        by triggering use of MADVISE_WILLNEED for a DAX mapping.
        (CVE-2017-18208)
    
      - A flaw was found where the kernel truncated the value
        used to indicate the size of a buffer which it would
        later become zero using an untruncated value. This can
        corrupt memory outside of the original allocation.
        (CVE-2017-9725)
    
      - In the Linux kernel versions 4.12, 3.10, 2.6, and
        possibly earlier, a race condition vulnerability exists
        in the sound system allowing for a potential deadlock
        and memory corruption due to use-after-free condition
        and thus denial of service. Due to the nature of the
        flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out,
        although we believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2018-1000004)
    
      - Improper validation in the bnx2x network card driver of
        the Linux kernel version 4.15 can allow for denial of
        service (DoS) attacks via a packet with a gso_size
        larger than ~9700 bytes. Untrusted guest VMs can exploit
        this vulnerability in the host machine, causing a crash
        in the network card. (CVE-2018-1000026)
    
      - By mmap()ing a FUSE-backed file onto a process's memory
        containing command line arguments (or environment
        strings), an attacker can cause utilities from psutils
        or procps (such as ps, w) or any other program which
        makes a read() call to the /proc//cmdline (or
        /proc//environ) files to block indefinitely (denial
        of service) or for some controlled time (as a
        synchronization primitive for other attacks).
        (CVE-2018-1120)
    
      - A null pointer dereference in dccp_write_xmit() function
        in net/dccp/output.c in the Linux kernel allows a local
        user to cause a denial of service by a number of certain
        crafted system calls. (CVE-2018-1130)
    
      - An issue was discovered in the proc_pid_stack function
        in fs/proc/base.c in the Linux kernel. An attacker with
        a local account can trick the stack unwinder code to
        leak stack contents to userspace. The fix allows only
        root to inspect the kernel stack of an arbitrary task.
        (CVE-2018-17972)
    
      - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel with files on tmpfs
        and hugetlbfs. An attacker is able to bypass file
        permissions on filesystems mounted with tmpfs/hugetlbs
        to modify a file and possibly disrupt normal system
        behavior. At this time there is an understanding there
        is no crash or privilege escalation but the impact of
        modifications on these filesystems of files in
        production systems may have adverse affects.
        (CVE-2018-18397)
    
      - In the Linux kernel before 4.17, a local attacker able
        to set attributes on an xfs filesystem could make this
        filesystem non-operational until the next mount by
        triggering an unchecked error condition during an xfs
        attribute change, because xfs_attr_shortform_addname in
        fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_attr.c mishandles ATTR_REPLACE
        operations with conversion of an attr from short to long
        form. (CVE-2018-18690)
    
      - Modern operating systems implement virtualization of
        physical memory to efficiently use available system
        resources and provide inter-domain protection through
        access control and isolation. The L1TF issue was found
        in the way the x86 microprocessor designs have
        implemented speculative execution of instructions (a
        commonly used performance optimization) in combination
        with handling of page-faults caused by terminated
        virtual to physical address resolving process. As a
        result, an unprivileged attacker could use this flaw to
        read privileged memory of the kernel or other processes
        and/or cross guest/host boundaries to read host memory
        by conducting targeted cache side-channel attacks.
        (CVE-2018-3646)
    
      - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's handling of
        loopback devices. An attacker, who has permissions to
        setup loopback disks, may create a denial of service or
        other unspecified actions. (CVE-2018-5344)
    
      - The acpi_smbus_hc_add function in drivers/acpi/sbshc.c
        in the Linux kernel, through 4.14.15, allows local users
        to obtain sensitive address information by reading dmesg
        data from an SBS HC printk call. (CVE-2018-5750)
    
      - An error in the _sctp_make_chunk() function
        (net/sctp/sm_make_chunk.c) when handling SCTP, packet
        length can be exploited by a malicious local user to
        cause a kernel crash and a DoS. (CVE-2018-5803)
    
      - In the function wmi_set_ie() in the Linux kernel the
        length validation code does not handle unsigned integer
        overflow properly. As a result, a large value of the
        ie_len argument can cause a buffer overflow and thus a
        memory corruption leading to a system crash or other or
        unspecified impact. Due to the nature of the flaw,
        privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although
        we believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2018-5848)
    
      - ALSA sequencer core initializes the event pool on demand
        by invoking snd_seq_pool_init() when the first write
        happens and the pool is empty. A user can reset the pool
        size manually via ioctl concurrently, and this may lead
        to UAF or out-of-bound access. (CVE-2018-7566)
    
      - A possible memory corruption due to a type confusion was
        found in the Linux kernel in the sk_clone_lock()
        function in the net/core/sock.c. The possibility of
        local escalation of privileges cannot be fully ruled out
        for a local unprivileged attacker. (CVE-2018-9568)

    descriptionThe SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP1 kernel was updated to 3.12.69 to receive various security and bugfixes. The following security bugs were fixed : - CVE-2015-8962: Double free vulnerability in the sg_common_write function in drivers/scsi/sg.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) by detaching a device during an SG_IO ioctl call (bnc#1010501). - CVE-2015-8963: Race condition in kernel/events/core.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) by leveraging incorrect handling of an swevent data structure during a CPU unplug operation (bnc#1010502). - CVE-2015-8964: The tty_set_termios_ldisc function in drivers/tty/tty_ldisc.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by reading a tty data structure (bnc#1010507). - CVE-2016-10088: The sg implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly restrict write operations in situations where the KERNEL_DS option is set, which allowed local users to read or write to arbitrary kernel memory locations or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) by leveraging access to a /dev/sg device, related to block/bsg.c and drivers/scsi/sg.c. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2016-9576 (bnc#1017710). - CVE-2016-7910: Use-after-free vulnerability in the disk_seqf_stop function in block/genhd.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to gain privileges by leveraging the execution of a certain stop operation even if the corresponding start operation had failed (bnc#1010716). - CVE-2016-7911: Race condition in the get_task_ioprio function in block/ioprio.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via a crafted ioprio_get system call (bnc#1010711). - CVE-2016-7913: The xc2028_set_config function in drivers/media/tuners/tuner-xc2028.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via vectors involving omission of the firmware name from a certain data structure (bnc#1010478). - CVE-2016-7914: The assoc_array_insert_into_terminal_node function in lib/assoc_array.c in the Linux kernel did not check whether a slot is a leaf, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory or cause a denial of service (invalid pointer dereference and out-of-bounds read) via an application that uses associative-array data structures, as demonstrated by the keyutils test suite (bnc#1010475). - CVE-2016-8399: An elevation of privilege vulnerability in the kernel networking subsystem could enable a local malicious application to execute arbitrary code within the context of the kernel. This issue is rated as Moderate because it first requires compromising a privileged process and current compiler optimizations restrict access to the vulnerable code. Product: Android. Versions: Kernel-3.10, Kernel-3.18. Android ID: A-31349935 (bnc#1014746). - CVE-2016-8633: drivers/firewire/net.c in the Linux kernel, in certain unusual hardware configurations, allowed remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted fragmented packets (bnc#1008833). - CVE-2016-8645: The TCP stack in the Linux kernel mishandled skb truncation, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a crafted application that made sendto system calls, related to net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c and net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c (bnc#1009969). - CVE-2016-9083: drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to bypass integer overflow checks, and cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or have unspecified other impact, by leveraging access to a vfio PCI device file for a VFIO_DEVICE_SET_IRQS ioctl call, aka a

  • NASL familySuSE Local Security Checks
    NASL idOPENSUSE-2016-1431.NASL
    descriptionThe openSUSE 13.2 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes. The following security bugs were fixed : - CVE-2015-8962: Double free vulnerability in the sg_common_write function in drivers/scsi/sg.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) by detaching a device during an SG_IO ioctl call (bnc#1010501). - CVE-2015-8963: Race condition in kernel/events/core.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) by leveraging incorrect handling of an swevent data structure during a CPU unplug operation (bnc#1010502). - CVE-2016-7042: The proc_keys_show function in security/keys/proc.c in the Linux kernel through 4.8.2, when the GNU Compiler Collection (gcc) stack protector is enabled, uses an incorrect buffer size for certain timeout data, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (stack memory corruption and panic) by reading the /proc/keys file (bnc#1004517). - CVE-2016-7910: Use-after-free vulnerability in the disk_seqf_stop function in block/genhd.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to gain privileges by leveraging the execution of a certain stop operation even if the corresponding start operation had failed (bnc#1010716). - CVE-2016-7911: Race condition in the get_task_ioprio function in block/ioprio.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via a crafted ioprio_get system call (bnc#1010711). - CVE-2016-7913: The xc2028_set_config function in drivers/media/tuners/tuner-xc2028.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via vectors involving omission of the firmware name from a certain data structure (bnc#1010478). - CVE-2016-7914: The assoc_array_insert_into_terminal_node function in lib/assoc_array.c in the Linux kernel did not check whether a slot is a leaf, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory or cause a denial of service (invalid pointer dereference and out-of-bounds read) via an application that uses associative-array data structures, as demonstrated by the keyutils test suite (bnc#1010475). - CVE-2016-7916: Race condition in the environ_read function in fs/proc/base.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by reading a /proc/*/environ file during a process-setup time interval in which environment-variable copying is incomplete (bnc#1010467). - CVE-2016-8633: drivers/firewire/net.c in the Linux kernel before 4.8.7, in certain unusual hardware configurations, allowed remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted fragmented packets (bnc#1008833). - CVE-2016-8646: The hash_accept function in crypto/algif_hash.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) by attempting to trigger use of in-kernel hash algorithms for a socket that has received zero bytes of data (bnc#1010150). - CVE-2016-8655: A race condition in the af_packet packet_set_ring function could be used by local attackers to crash the kernel or gain privileges (bsc#1012754). - CVE-2016-9555: The sctp_sf_ootb function in net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c in the Linux kernel lacks chunk-length checking for the first chunk, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds slab access) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted SCTP data (bnc#1011685). The following non-security bugs were fixed : - bna: Add synchronization for tx ring (bsc#993739). - bonding: set carrier off for devices created through netlink (bsc#999577). - btrfs: fix extent tree corruption due to relocation (bsc#990384). - introduce NETIF_F_GSO_ENCAP_ALL helper mask (bsc#1001486). - ipv6: send NEWLINK on RA managed/otherconf changes (bsc#934067). - ipv6: send only one NEWLINK when RA causes changes (bsc#934067). - tunnels: Remove encapsulation offloads on decap (bsc#1001486). - usbhid: add ATEN CS962 to list of quirky devices (bsc#1007615). - vmxnet3: Wake queue from reset work (bsc#999907).

  • NASL familyUbuntu Local Security Checks
    NASL idUBUNTU_USN-3312-2.NASL
    descriptionUSN-3312-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. This update provides the corresponding updates for the Linux Hardware Enablement (HWE) kernel from Ubuntu 16.04 LTS for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. It was discovered that the netfilter netlink implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly validate batch messages. A local attacker with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability could use this to expose sensitive information or cause a denial of service. (CVE-2016-7917) Qian Zhang discovered a heap-based buffer overflow in the tipc_msg_build() function in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code with administrative privileges. (CVE-2016-8632) It was discovered that the keyring implementation in the Linux kernel in some situations did not prevent special internal keyrings from being joined by userspace keyrings. A privileged local attacker could use this to bypass module verification. (CVE-2016-9604) Dmitry Vyukov discovered that KVM implementation in the Linux kernel improperly emulated the VMXON instruction. A local attacker in a guest OS could use this to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) in the host OS. (CVE-2017-2596) Daniel Jiang discovered that a race condition existed in the ipv4 ping socket implementation in the Linux kernel. A local privileged attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2017-2671) Di Shen discovered that a race condition existed in the perf subsystem of the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly gain administrative privileges. (CVE-2017-6001) Eric Biggers discovered a memory leak in the keyring implementation in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (memory consumption). (CVE-2017-7472) Sabrina Dubroca discovered that the asynchronous cryptographic hash (ahash) implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle a full request queue. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (infinite recursion). (CVE-2017-7618) Tuomas Haanpaa and Ari Kauppi discovered that the NFSv2 and NFSv3 server implementations in the Linux kernel did not properly handle certain long RPC replies. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2017-7645) Tommi Rantala and Brad Spengler discovered that the memory manager in the Linux kernel did not properly enforce the CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM protection mechanism. A local attacker with access to /dev/mem could use this to expose sensitive information or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-7889) Tuomas Haanpaa and Ari Kauppi discovered that the NFSv2 and NFSv3 server implementations in the Linux kernel did not properly check for the end of buffer. A remote attacker could use this to craft requests that cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-7895) It was discovered that a use-after-free vulnerability existed in the device driver for XCeive xc2028/xc3028 tuners in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-7913) Vlad Tsyrklevich discovered an integer overflow vulnerability in the VFIO PCI driver for the Linux kernel. A local attacker with access to a vfio PCI device file could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-9083, CVE-2016-9084). Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

    NASL idNEWSTART_CGSL_NS-SA-2019-0074_KERNEL-RT.NASL
    descriptionThe remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04, has kernel-rt packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities: - Integer overflow in the aio_setup_single_vector function in fs/aio.c in the Linux kernel 4.0 allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via a large AIO iovec. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of a CVE-2012-6701 regression. (CVE-2015-8830) - A weakness was found in the Linux ASLR implementation. Any user able to running 32-bit applications in a x86 machine can disable ASLR by setting the RLIMIT_STACK resource to unlimited. (CVE-2016-3672) - The xc2028_set_config function in drivers/media/tuners/tuner-xc2028.c in the Linux kernel before 4.6 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via vectors involving omission of the firmware name from a certain data structure. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2016-7913) - Use-after-free vulnerability in the snd_pcm_info() function in the ALSA subsystem in the Linux kernel allows attackers to induce a kernel memory corruption and possibly crash or lock up a system. Due to the nature of the flaw, a privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2017-0861) - A reachable assertion failure flaw was found in the Linux kernel built with KVM virtualisation(CONFIG_KVM) support with Virtual Function I/O feature (CONFIG_VFIO) enabled. This failure could occur if a malicious guest device sent a virtual interrupt (guest IRQ) with a larger (>1024) index value. (CVE-2017-1000252) - Linux kernel Virtualization Module (CONFIG_KVM) for the Intel processor family (CONFIG_KVM_INTEL) is vulnerable to a DoS issue. It could occur if a guest was to flood the I/O port 0x80 with write requests. A guest user could use this flaw to crash the host kernel resulting in DoS. (CVE-2017-1000407) - A flaw was found in the processing of incoming L2CAP bluetooth commands. Uninitialized stack variables can be sent to an attacker leaking data in kernel address space. (CVE-2017-1000410) - A race condition was found in the Linux kernel before version 4.11-rc1 in
