Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Embedding Scripts within Scripts
    An attack of this type exploits a programs' vulnerabilities that are brought on by allowing remote hosts to execute scripts. The attacker leverages this capability to execute scripts to execute his/her own script by embedding it within other scripts that the target software is likely to execute. The attacker must have the ability to inject script into script that is likely to be executed. If this is done, then the attacker can potentially launch a variety of probes and attacks against the web server's local environment, in many cases the so-called DMZ, back end resources the web server can communicate with, and other hosts. With the proliferation of intermediaries, such as Web App Firewalls, network devices, and even printers having JVMs and Web servers, there are many locales where an attacker can inject malicious scripts. Since this attack pattern defines scripts within scripts, there are likely privileges to execute said attack on the host. Of course, these attacks are not solely limited to the server side, client side scripts like Ajax and client side JavaScript can contain malicious scripts as well. In general all that is required is for there to be sufficient privileges to execute a script, but not protected against writing.
  • Signature Spoofing by Key Theft
    An attacker obtains an authoritative or reputable signer's private signature key by theft and then uses this key to forge signatures from the original signer to mislead a victim into performing actions that benefit the attacker.

"Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that
may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information
leaks.

CVE-2012-6704, CVE-2016-9793

Eric Dumazet found that a local user with CAP_NET_ADMIN capability
could set a socket's buffer size to be negative, leading to a denial
of service or other security impact. Additionally, in kernel versions
prior to 3.5, any user could do this if sysctl net.core.rmem_max was
changed to a very large value.

CVE-2015-1350 / #770492

Ben Harris reported that local users could remove set-capability
attributes from any file visible to them, allowing a denial of
service.

CVE-2015-8962

Calvin Owens fouund that removing a SCSI device while it was being
accessed through the SCSI generic (sg) driver led to a double- free,
possibly causing a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or
privilege escalation. This could be exploited by local users with
permision to access a SCSI device node.

CVE-2015-8963

Sasha Levin reported that hot-unplugging a CPU resulted in a
use-after-free by the performance events (perf) subsystem, possibly
causing a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or privilege
escalation. This could by exploited by any local user.

CVE-2015-8964

It was found that the terminal/serial (tty) subsystem did not reliably
reset the terminal buffer state when the terminal line discipline was
changed. This could allow a local user with access to a terminal
device to read sensitive information from kernel memory.

CVE-2016-7097

Jan Kara found that changing the POSIX ACL of a file never cleared its
set-group-ID flag, which should be done if the user changing it is not
a member of the group-owner. In some cases, this would allow the
user-owner of an executable to gain the privileges of the group-owner.

CVE-2016-7910

Vegard Nossum discovered that a memory allocation failure while
handling a read of /proc/diskstats or /proc/partitions could lead to a
use-after-free, possibly causing a denial of service (crash or memory
corruption) or privilege escalation.

CVE-2016-7911

Dmitry Vyukov reported that a race between ioprio_get() and
ioprio_set() system calls could result in a use-after-free, possibly
causing a denial of service (crash) or leaking sensitive information.

CVE-2016-7915

Benjamin Tissoires found that HID devices could trigger an out-of-
bounds memory access in the HID core. A physically present user could
possibly use this for denial of service (crash) or to leak sensitive
information.

CVE-2016-8399

Qidan He reported that the IPv4 ping socket implementation did not
validate the length of packets to be sent. A user with permisson to
use ping sockets could cause an out-of-bounds read, possibly resulting
in a denial of service or information leak. However, on Debian systems
no users have permission to create ping sockets by default.

CVE-2016-8633

Eyal Itkin reported that the IP-over-Firewire driver (firewire-net)
did not validate the offset or length in link-layer fragmentation
headers. This allowed a remote system connected by Firewire to write
to memory after a packet buffer, leading to a denial of service
(crash) or remote code execution.

CVE-2016-8645

Marco Grassi reported that if a socket filter (BPF program) attached
to a TCP socket truncates or removes the TCP header, this could cause
a denial of service (crash). This was exploitable by any local user.

CVE-2016-8655

Philip Pettersson found that the implementation of packet sockets
(AF_PACKET family) had a race condition between enabling a transmit
ring buffer and changing the version of buffers used, which could
result in a use-after-free. A local user with the CAP_NET_ADMIN
capability could exploit this for privilege escalation.

CVE-2016-9178

Al Viro found that a failure to read data from user memory might lead
to a information leak on the x86 architecture (amd64 or i386).

CVE-2016-9555

Andrey Konovalov reported that the SCTP implementation does not
validate 'out of the blue' packet chunk lengths early enough. A remote
system able could use this to cause a denial of service (crash) or
other security impact for systems using SCTP.

CVE-2016-9576, CVE-2016-10088

Dmitry Vyukov reported that using splice() with the SCSI generic
driver led to kernel memory corruption. Local users with permision to
access a SCSI device node could exploit this for privilege escalation.

CVE-2016-9756

Dmitry Vyukov reported that KVM for the x86 architecture (amd64 or
i386) did not correctly handle the failure of certain instructions
that require software emulation on older processors. This could be
exploited by guest systems to leak sensitive information or for denial
of service (log spam).

CVE-2016-9794

Baozeng Ding reported a race condition in the ALSA (sound) subsystem
that could result in a use-after-free. Local users with access to a
PCM sound device could exploit this for denial of service (crash or
memory corruption) or other security impact.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version
3.2.84-1. This version also includes bug fixes from upstream version
3.2.84 and updates the PREEMPT_RT featureset to version 3.2.84-rt122.
Finally, this version adds the option to mitigate security issues in
the performance events (perf) subsystem by disabling use by
unprivileged users. This can be done by setting sysctl
kernel.perf_event_paranoid=3.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version
3.16.39-1 which will be included in the next point release (8.6).

    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

    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 '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-2016-9756: arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux
    kernel did not properly initialize Code Segment (CS) in
    certain error cases, which allowed local users to obtain
    sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a
    crafted application (bnc#1013038).

  - CVE-2016-9793: The sock_setsockopt function in
    net/core/sock.c in the Linux kernel mishandled negative
    values of sk_sndbuf and sk_rcvbuf, which allowed local
    users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption
    and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other
    impact by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for a
    crafted setsockopt system call with the (1)
    SO_SNDBUFFORCE or (2) SO_RCVBUFFORCE option (bnc#1013531
    1013542).

  - CVE-2016-9806: Race condition in the netlink_dump
    function in net/netlink/af_netlink.c in the Linux kernel
    allowed local users to cause a denial of service (double
    free) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a
    crafted application that made sendmsg system calls,
    leading to a free operation associated with a new dump
    that started earlier than anticipated (bnc#1013540
    1017589).

  - CVE-2017-2584: arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux
    kernel allowed local users to obtain sensitive
    information from kernel memory or cause a denial of
    service (use-after-free) via a crafted application that
    leverages instruction emulation for fxrstor, fxsave,
    sgdt, and sidt (bsc#1019851).

  - CVE-2017-2583: Fixed broken emulation of 'MOV SS, null
    selector' (bsc#1020602).

  - CVE-2017-5551: Clear SGID bit when setting file
    permissions on tmpfs (bsc#1021258).

"The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04, has kernel packages installed that are affected by
multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A buffer overflow vulnerability due to a lack of input
    filtering of incoming fragmented datagrams was found in
    the IP-over-1394 driver [firewire-net] in a fragment
    handling code in the Linux kernel. The vulnerability
    exists since firewire supported IPv4, i.e. since version
    2.6.31 (year 2009) till version v4.9-rc4. A maliciously
    formed fragment with a respectively large datagram

    which would cause a system panic or possible arbitrary
    code execution. The flaw requires [firewire-net] module
    to be loaded and is remotely exploitable from connected
    firewire devices, but not over a local network.
    (CVE-2016-8633)

  - A bug in the 32-bit compatibility layer of the ioctl
    handling code of the v4l2 video driver in the Linux
    kernel has been found. A memory protection mechanism
    ensuring that user-provided buffers always point to a
    userspace memory were disabled, allowing destination
    address to be in a kernel space. This flaw could be
    exploited by an attacker to overwrite a kernel memory
    from an unprivileged userspace process, leading to
    privilege escalation. (CVE-2017-13166)

  - The timer_create syscall implementation in
    kernel/time/posix-timers.c in the Linux kernel doesn't
    properly validate the sigevent->sigev_notify field,
    which leads to out-of-bounds access in the show_timer
    function. (CVE-2017-18344)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability was found in DCCP socket
    code affecting the Linux kernel since 2.6.16. This
    vulnerability could allow an attacker to their escalate
    privileges. (CVE-2017-8824)

  - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's KVM
    hypervisor handled exceptions delivered after a stack
    switch operation via Mov SS or Pop SS instructions.
    During the stack switch operation, the processor did not
    deliver interrupts and exceptions, rather they are
    delivered once the first instruction after the stack
    switch is executed. An unprivileged KVM guest user could
    use this flaw to crash the guest or, potentially,
    escalate their privileges in the guest. (CVE-2018-1087)

  - It was found that the raw midi kernel driver does not
    protect against concurrent access which leads to a
    double realloc (double free) in
    snd_rawmidi_input_params() and
    snd_rawmidi_output_status() which are part of
    snd_rawmidi_ioctl() handler in rawmidi.c file. A
    malicious local attacker could possibly use this for
    privilege escalation. (CVE-2018-10902)

  - A vulnerability was found in the
    fs/inode.c:inode_init_owner() function logic of the
    LInux kernel that allows local users to create files
    with an unintended group ownership and with group
    execution and SGID permission bits set, in a scenario
    where a directory is SGID and belongs to a certain group
    and is writable by a user who is not a member of this
    group. This can lead to excessive permissions granted in
    case when they should not. (CVE-2018-13405)

  - 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-2018-3620)

  - An industry-wide issue was found in the way many modern
    microprocessor designs have implemented speculative
    execution of Load & Store instructions (a commonly used
    performance optimization). It relies on the presence of
    a precisely-defined instruction sequence in the
    privileged code as well as the fact that memory read
    from address to which a recent memory write has occurred
    may see an older value and subsequently cause an update
    into the microprocessor's data cache even for
    speculatively executed instructions that never actually
    commit (retire). As a result, an unprivileged attacker
    could use this flaw to read privileged memory by
    conducting targeted cache side-channel attacks.
    (CVE-2018-3639)

  - An industry-wide issue was found in the way many modern
    microprocessor designs have implemented speculative
    execution of instructions past bounds check. The flaw
    relies on the presence of a precisely-defined
    instruction sequence in the privileged code and the fact
    that memory writes occur to an address which depends on
    the untrusted value. Such writes cause an update into
    the microprocessor's data cache even for speculatively
    executed instructions that never actually commit
    (retire). As a result, an unprivileged attacker could
    use this flaw to influence speculative execution and/or
    read privileged memory by conducting targeted cache
    side-channel attacks. (CVE-2018-3693)

  - A flaw named FragmentSmack was found in the way the
    Linux kernel handled reassembly of fragmented IPv4 and
    IPv6 packets. A remote attacker could use this flaw to
    trigger time and calculation expensive fragment
    reassembly algorithm by sending specially crafted
    packets which could lead to a CPU saturation and hence a
    denial of service on the system. (CVE-2018-5391)

  - A an integer overflow vulnerability was discovered in
    the Linux kernel, from version 3.4 through 4.15, in the
    drivers/gpu/drm/udl/udl_fb.c:udl_fb_mmap() function. An
    attacker with access to the udldrmfb driver could
    exploit this to obtain full read and write permissions
    on kernel physical pages, resulting in a code execution
    in kernel space. (CVE-2018-8781)

    descriptionThe SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 SP2 LTSS kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes. This is the last planned LTSS kernel update for the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP2 LTSS. The following security bugs were fixed : - 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-2004-0230: TCP, when using a large Window Size, made it easier for remote attackers to guess sequence numbers and cause a denial of service (connection loss) to persistent TCP connections by repeatedly injecting a TCP RST packet, especially in protocols that use long-lived connections, such as BGP (bnc#969340). - CVE-2016-8632: The tipc_msg_build function in net/tipc/msg.c in the Linux kernel did not validate the relationship between the minimum fragment length and the maximum packet size, which allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability (bnc#1008831). - CVE-2016-8399: An out of bounds read in the ping protocol handler could have lead to information disclosure (bsc#1014746). - CVE-2016-9793: The sock_setsockopt function in net/core/sock.c in the Linux kernel mishandled negative values of sk_sndbuf and sk_rcvbuf, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for a crafted setsockopt system call with the (1) SO_SNDBUFFORCE or (2) SO_RCVBUFFORCE option (bnc#1013531). - CVE-2012-6704: The sock_setsockopt function in net/core/sock.c in the Linux kernel mishandled negative values of sk_sndbuf and sk_rcvbuf, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for a crafted setsockopt system call with the (1) SO_SNDBUF or (2) SO_RCVBUF option (bnc#1013542). - CVE-2016-9756: arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize Code Segment (CS) in certain error cases, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted application (bnc#1013038). - CVE-2016-3841: The IPv6 stack in the Linux kernel mishandled options data, which allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free and system crash) via a crafted sendmsg system call (bnc#992566). - CVE-2016-9685: Multiple memory leaks in error paths in fs/xfs/xfs_attr_list.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via crafted XFS filesystem operations (bnc#1012832). - CVE-2015-1350: The VFS subsystem in the Linux kernel 3.x provides an incomplete set of requirements for setattr operations that underspecified 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-2015-8962: 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-2016-9555: The sctp_sf_ootb function in net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c in the Linux kernel lacked 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). - 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). -

    NASL idSUSE_SU-2017-0494-1.NASL
    descriptionThe SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 SP3 LTSS kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes. The following security bugs were fixed : - CVE-2015-8970: crypto/algif_skcipher.c in the Linux kernel did not verify that a setkey operation has been performed on an AF_ALG socket before an accept system call is processed, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a crafted application that did not supply a key, related to the lrw_crypt function in crypto/lrw.c (bnc#1008374). - CVE-2017-5551: Clear S_ISGID on tmpfs when setting posix ACLs (bsc#1021258). - CVE-2016-7097: The filesystem implementation in the Linux kernel preserves the setgid bit during a setxattr call, which allowed local users to gain group privileges by leveraging the existence of a setgid program with restrictions on execute permissions (bnc#995968). - 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-2004-0230: TCP, when using a large Window Size, made it easier for remote attackers to guess sequence numbers and cause a denial of service (connection loss) to persistent TCP connections by repeatedly injecting a TCP RST packet, especially in protocols that use long-lived connections, such as BGP (bnc#969340). - CVE-2016-8632: The tipc_msg_build function in net/tipc/msg.c in the Linux kernel did not validate the relationship between the minimum fragment length and the maximum packet size, which allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability (bnc#1008831). - CVE-2016-8399: An elevation of privilege vulnerability in the kernel networking subsystem could have enabled a local malicious application to execute arbitrary code within the context of the kernel bnc#1014746). - CVE-2016-9793: The sock_setsockopt function in net/core/sock.c in the Linux kernel mishandled negative values of sk_sndbuf and sk_rcvbuf, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for a crafted setsockopt system call with the (1) SO_SNDBUFFORCE or (2) SO_RCVBUFFORCE option (bnc#1013531). - CVE-2012-6704: The sock_setsockopt function in net/core/sock.c in the Linux kernel mishandled negative values of sk_sndbuf and sk_rcvbuf, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for a crafted setsockopt system call with the (1) SO_SNDBUF or (2) SO_RCVBUF option (bnc#1013542). - CVE-2016-9756: arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize Code Segment (CS) in certain error cases, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted application (bnc#1013038). - CVE-2016-3841: The IPv6 stack in the Linux kernel mishandled options data, which allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free and system crash) via a crafted sendmsg system call (bnc#992566). - CVE-2016-9685: Multiple memory leaks in error paths in fs/xfs/xfs_attr_list.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via crafted XFS filesystem operations (bnc#1012832). - CVE-2015-1350: The VFS subsystem in the Linux kernel provided 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-2015-8962: 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-2016-9555: The sctp_sf_ootb function in net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c in the Linux kernel lacked 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). - 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-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-2016-7916: 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 in certain unusual hardware configurations allowed remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted fragmented packets (bnc#1008833). - CVE-2016-7042: The proc_keys_show function in security/keys/proc.c in the Linux, when the GNU Compiler Collection (gcc) stack protector is enabled, used 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-2015-8956: The rfcomm_sock_bind function in net/bluetooth/rfcomm/sock.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) via vectors involving a bind system call on a Bluetooth RFCOMM socket (bnc#1003925). - CVE-2016-7117: Use-after-free vulnerability in the __sys_recvmmsg function in net/socket.c in the Linux kernel allowed remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via vectors involving a recvmmsg system call that is mishandled during error processing (bnc#1003077). - CVE-2016-0823: The pagemap_open function in fs/proc/task_mmu.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to obtain sensitive physical-address information by reading a pagemap file (bnc#994759). - 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-2016-6828: The tcp_check_send_head function in include/net/tcp.h in the Linux kernel did not properly maintain certain SACK state after a failed data copy, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue use-after-free and system crash) via a crafted SACK option (bnc#994296). 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.

    NASL idEULEROS_SA-2019-1517.NASL
    descriptionAccording to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities : - A memory corruption flaw was found in the way the USB ConnectTech WhiteHEAT serial driver processed completion commands sent via USB Request Blocks buffers. An attacker with physical access to the system could use this flaw to crash the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system.(CVE-2014-3185i1/4%0 - Use-after-free vulnerability in the msm_set_crop function in drivers/media/video/msm/msm_camera.c in the MSM-Camera driver for the Linux kernel 3.x, as used in Qualcomm Innovation Center (QuIC) Android contributions for MSM devices and other products, allows attackers to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via an application that makes a crafted ioctl call.(CVE-2015-0568i1/4%0 - The vivid_fb_ioctl function in drivers/media/platform/vivid/vivid-osd.c in the Linux kernel through 4.3.3 does not initialize a certain structure member, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a crafted application.(CVE-2015-7884i1/4%0 - The usb_get_bos_descriptor function in drivers/usb/core/config.c in the Linux kernel can allow a local users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device.(CVE-2017-16535i1/4%0 - The ACPI parsing functionality in the Linux kernel does not flush the node and node_ext caches which causes a kernel stack dump. This allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory and use this information to bypass the KASLR protection mechanism by creating and applying crafted ACPI table.(CVE-2017-13694i1/4%0 - The is_ashmem_file function in drivers/staging/android/ashmem.c in a certain Qualcomm Innovation Center (QuIC) Android patch for the Linux kernel 3.x mishandles pointer validation within the KGSL Linux Graphics Module, which allows attackers to bypass intended access restrictions by using the /ashmem string as the dentry name.(CVE-2016-5340i1/4%0 - It was found that the Linux kernel did not properly account file descriptors passed over the unix socket against the process limit. A local user could use this flaw to exhaust all available memory on the system.(CVE-2013-4312i1/4%0 - Kernel memory corruption due to a buffer overflow was found in brcmf_cfg80211_mgmt_tx() function in Linux kernels from v3.9-rc1 to v4.13-rc1. The vulnerability can be triggered by sending a crafted NL80211_CMD_FRAME packet via netlink. This flaw is unlikely to be triggered remotely as certain userspace code is needed for this. An unprivileged local user could use this flaw 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 unlikely.(CVE-2017-7541i1/4%0 - A flaw in the netback module allowed frontends to control mapping of requests to request queues. An attacker can change this mapping by requesting invalid mapping requests allowing the (usually privileged) backend to access out-of-bounds memory access for reading and writing.(CVE-2018-15471i1/4%0 - A buffer overflow vulnerability due to a lack of input filtering of incoming fragmented datagrams was found in the IP-over-1394 driver firewire-net in a fragment handling code in the Linux kernel. The vulnerability exists since firewire supported IPv4, i.e. since version 2.6.31 (year 2009) till version v4.9-rc4. A maliciously formed fragment with a respectively large datagram offset would cause a memcpy() past the datagram buffer, which would cause a system panic or possible arbitrary code execution.The flaw requires firewire-net module to be loaded and is remotely exploitable from connected firewire devices, but not over a local network.(CVE-2016-8633i1/4%0 - It was found that the Linux kernel can hit a BUG_ON() statement in the __xfs_get_blocks() in the fs/xfs/xfs_aops.c because of a race condition between direct and memory-mapped I/O associated with a hole in a file that is handled with BUG_ON() instead of an I/O failure. This allows a local unprivileged attacker to cause a system crash and a denial of service.(CVE-2016-10741i1/4%0 - A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel. The pointer to the netlink socket attribute is not checked, which could cause a null pointer dereference when parsing the nested attributes in function tipc_nl_publ_dump(). This allows local users to cause a DoS.(CVE-2016-4951i1/4%0 - It was reported that with Linux kernel, earlier than version v4.10-rc8, an application may trigger a BUG_ON in sctp_wait_for_sndbuf if the socket tx buffer is full, a thread is waiting on it to queue more data, and meanwhile another thread peels off the association being used by the first thread.(CVE-2017-5986i1/4%0 - The kvm_vm_ioctl_check_extension function in arch/powerpc/kvm/powerpc.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.11 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION KVM_CAP_PPC_HTM ioctl call to /dev/kvm.(CVE-2017-15306i1/4%0 - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel

    descriptionThe remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04, has kernel-rt packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities: - A buffer overflow vulnerability due to a lack of input filtering of incoming fragmented datagrams was found in the IP-over-1394 driver [firewire-net] in a fragment handling code in the Linux kernel. The vulnerability exists since firewire supported IPv4, i.e. since version 2.6.31 (year 2009) till version v4.9-rc4.

    descriptionThe SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 SP4 kernel was updated to 3.0.101-94 to receive various security and bugfixes. The following security bugs were fixed : - CVE-2017-5551: tmpfs: clear S_ISGID when setting posix ACLs (bsc#1021258). - 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 NOTE: this vulnerability existed because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2016-9576 (bnc#1017710). - CVE-2016-5696: TCP, when using a large Window Size, made it easier for remote attackers to guess sequence numbers and cause a denial of service (connection loss) to persistent TCP connections by repeatedly injecting a TCP RST packet, especially in protocols that use long-lived connections, such as BGP (bnc#989152). - CVE-2015-1350: The VFS subsystem in the Linux kernel 3.x provided an incomplete set of requirements for setattr operations that underspecified 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-2016-8632: The tipc_msg_build function in net/tipc/msg.c in the Linux kernel did not validate the relationship between the minimum fragment length and the maximum packet size, which allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability (bnc#1008831). - 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. (bnc#1014746). - CVE-2016-9793: The sock_setsockopt function in net/core/sock.c in the Linux kernel mishandled negative values of sk_sndbuf and sk_rcvbuf, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for a crafted setsockopt system call with the (1) SO_SNDBUFFORCE or (2) SO_RCVBUFFORCE option (bnc#1013531). - CVE-2012-6704: The sock_setsockopt function in net/core/sock.c in the Linux kernel mishandled negative values of sk_sndbuf and sk_rcvbuf, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for a crafted setsockopt system call with the (1) SO_SNDBUF or (2) SO_RCVBUF option (bnc#1013542). - CVE-2016-9756: arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize Code Segment (CS) in certain error cases, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted application (bnc#1013038). - CVE-2016-9685: Multiple memory leaks in error paths in fs/xfs/xfs_attr_list.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via crafted XFS filesystem operations (bnc#1012832). - 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-2016-9555: The sctp_sf_ootb function in net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c in the Linux kernel lacked 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). - 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-2013-6368: The KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (system crash) via a VAPIC synchronization operation involving a page-end address (bnc#853052). - 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-2016-7916: 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-2016-8646: 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-2016-8633: 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). 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.
