Summary

The atyfb_ioctl function in drivers/video/fbdev/aty/atyfb_base.c in the Linux kernel through 4.12.10 does not initialize a certain data structure, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory by reading locations associated with padding bytes.

Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Subverting Environment Variable Values
    The attacker directly or indirectly modifies environment variables used by or controlling the target software. The attacker's goal is to cause the target software to deviate from its expected operation in a manner that benefits the attacker.
  • Footprinting
    An attacker engages in probing and exploration activity to identify constituents and properties of the target. Footprinting is a general term to describe a variety of information gathering techniques, often used by attackers in preparation for some attack. It consists of using tools to learn as much as possible about the composition, configuration, and security mechanisms of the targeted application, system or network. Information that might be collected during a footprinting effort could include open ports, applications and their versions, network topology, and similar information. While footprinting is not intended to be damaging (although certain activities, such as network scans, can sometimes cause disruptions to vulnerable applications inadvertently) it may often pave the way for more damaging attacks.
  • Exploiting Trust in Client (aka Make the Client Invisible)
    An attack of this type exploits a programs' vulnerabilities in client/server communication channel authentication and data integrity. It leverages the implicit trust a server places in the client, or more importantly, that which the server believes is the client. An attacker executes this type of attack by placing themselves in the communication channel between client and server such that communication directly to the server is possible where the server believes it is communicating only with a valid client. There are numerous variations of this type of attack.
  • Browser Fingerprinting
    An attacker carefully crafts small snippets of Java Script to efficiently detect the type of browser the potential victim is using. Many web-based attacks need prior knowledge of the web browser including the version of browser to ensure successful exploitation of a vulnerability. Having this knowledge allows an attacker to target the victim with attacks that specifically exploit known or zero day weaknesses in the type and version of the browser used by the victim. Automating this process via Java Script as a part of the same delivery system used to exploit the browser is considered more efficient as the attacker can supply a browser fingerprinting method and integrate it with exploit code, all contained in Java Script and in response to the same web page request by the browser.
  • Session Credential Falsification through Prediction
    This attack targets predictable session ID in order to gain privileges. The attacker can predict the session ID used during a transaction to perform spoofing and session hijacking.

  - CVE-2017-7518
    Andy Lutomirski discovered that KVM is prone to an
    incorrect debug exception (#DB) error occurring while
    emulating a syscall instruction. A process inside a
    guest can take advantage of this flaw for privilege
    escalation inside a guest.

  - CVE-2017-7558 (stretch only)
    Stefano Brivio of Red Hat discovered that the SCTP
    subsystem is prone to a data leak vulnerability due to
    an out-of-bounds read flaw, allowing to leak up to 100
    uninitialized bytes to userspace.

  - CVE-2017-10661 (jessie only)
    Dmitry Vyukov of Google reported that the timerfd
    facility does not properly handle certain concurrent
    operations on a single file descriptor. This allows a
    local attacker to cause a denial of service or
    potentially execute arbitrary code.

  - CVE-2017-11600
    Bo Zhang reported that the xfrm subsystem does not
    properly validate one of the parameters to a netlink
    message. Local users with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability
    can use this to cause a denial of service or potentially
    to execute arbitrary code.

  - CVE-2017-12134 / #866511 / XSA-229
    Jan H. Schoenherr of Amazon discovered that when Linux
    is running in a Xen PV domain on an x86 system, it may
    incorrectly merge block I/O requests. A buggy or
    malicious guest may trigger this bug in dom0 or a PV

    potentially execution of arbitrary code.

  This issue can be mitigated by disabling merges on the underlying
  back-end block devices, e.g.:echo 2 >
  /sys/block/nvme0n1/queue/nomerges

  - CVE-2017-12146 (stretch only)
    Adrian Salido of Google reported a race condition in
    access to the'driver_override' attribute for platform
    devices in sysfs. If unprivileged users are permitted to
    access this attribute, this might allow them to gain
    privileges.

  - CVE-2017-12153
    Bo Zhang reported that the cfg80211 (wifi) subsystem
    does not properly validate the parameters to a netlink
    message. Local users with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability
    (in any user namespace with a wifi device) can use this
    to cause a denial of service.

  - CVE-2017-12154
    Jim Mattson of Google reported that the KVM
    implementation for Intel x86 processors did not
    correctly handle certain nested hypervisor
    configurations. A malicious guest (or nested guest in a
    suitable L1 hypervisor) could use this for denial of
    service.

  - CVE-2017-14106
    Andrey Konovalov discovered that a user-triggerable
    division by zero in the tcp_disconnect() function could
    result in local denial of service.

  - CVE-2017-14140
    Otto Ebeling reported that the move_pages() system call
    performed insufficient validation of the UIDs of the
    calling and target processes, resulting in a partial
    ASLR bypass. This made it easier for local users to
    exploit vulnerabilities in programs installed with the
    set-UID permission bit set.

  - CVE-2017-14156
    'sohu0106' reported an information leak in the atyfb
    video driver. A local user with access to a framebuffer
    device handled by this driver could use this to obtain
    sensitive information.

  - CVE-2017-14340
    Richard Wareing discovered that the XFS implementation
    allows the creation of files with the 'realtime' flag on
    a filesystem with no realtime device, which can result
    in a crash (oops). A local user with access to an XFS
    filesystem that does not have a realtime device can use
    this for denial of service.

  - CVE-2017-14489
    ChunYu Wang of Red Hat discovered that the iSCSI
    subsystem does not properly validate the length of a
    netlink message, leading to memory corruption. A local
    user with permission to manage iSCSI devices can use
    this for denial of service or possibly to execute
    arbitrary code.

  - CVE-2017-14497 (stretch only)
    Benjamin Poirier of SUSE reported that vnet headers are
    not properly handled within the tpacket_rcv() function
    in the raw packet (af_packet) feature. A local user with
    the CAP_NET_RAW capability can take advantage of this
    flaw to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow, and
    disk and memory corruption) or have other impact.

  - CVE-2017-1000111
    Andrey Konovalov of Google reported a race condition in
    the raw packet (af_packet) feature. Local users with the
    CAP_NET_RAW capability can use this for denial of
    service or possibly to execute arbitrary code.

  - CVE-2017-1000112
    Andrey Konovalov of Google reported a race condition
    flaw in the UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) code. A
    local user can use this flaw for denial of service or
    possibly to execute arbitrary code.

  - CVE-2017-1000251 / #875881
    Armis Labs discovered that the Bluetooth subsystem does
    not properly validate L2CAP configuration responses,
    leading to a stack-based buffer overflow. This is one of
    several vulnerabilities dubbed 'Blueborne'. A nearby
    attacker can use this to cause a denial of service or
    possibly to execute arbitrary code on a system with
    Bluetooth enabled.

  - CVE-2017-1000252 (stretch only)
    Jan H. Schoenherr of Amazon reported that the KVM
    implementation for Intel x86 processors did not
    correctly validate interrupt injection requests. A local
    user with permission to use KVM could use this for
    denial of service.

  - CVE-2017-1000370
    The Qualys Research Labs reported that a large argument
    or environment list can result in ASLR bypass for 32-bit
    PIE binaries.

  - CVE-2017-1000371
    The Qualys Research Labs reported that a large argument
    or environment list can result in a stack/heap clash for
    32-bit PIE binaries.

  - CVE-2017-1000380
    Alexander Potapenko of Google reported a race condition
    in the ALSA (sound) timer driver, leading to an
    information leak. A local user with permission to access
    sound devices could use this to obtain sensitive
    information.

Debian disables unprivileged user namespaces by default, but if they
are enabled (via the kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone sysctl) then
CVE-2017-11600, CVE-2017-14497 and CVE-2017-1000111 can be exploited
by any local user."

leaks.

CVE-2017-7482

Shi Lei discovered that RxRPC Kerberos 5 ticket handling code does not
properly verify metadata, leading to information disclosure, denial of
service or potentially execution of arbitrary code.

CVE-2017-7542

An integer overflow vulnerability in the ip6_find_1stfragopt()
function was found allowing a local attacker with privileges to open
raw sockets to cause a denial of service.

CVE-2017-7889

Tommi Rantala and Brad Spengler reported that the mm subsystem does
not properly enforce the CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM protection mechanism,
allowing a local attacker with access to /dev/mem to obtain sensitive
information or potentially execute arbitrary code.

CVE-2017-10661

Dmitry Vyukov of Google reported that the timerfd facility does not
properly handle certain concurrent operations on a single file
descriptor. This allows a local attacker to cause a denial of service
or potentially to execute arbitrary code.

CVE-2017-10911 / XSA-216

Anthony Perard of Citrix discovered an information leak flaw in Xen
blkif response handling, allowing a malicious unprivileged guest to
obtain sensitive information from the host or other guests.

CVE-2017-11176

It was discovered that the mq_notify() function does not set the sock
pointer to NULL upon entry into the retry logic. An attacker can take
advantage of this flaw during a userspace close of a Netlink socket to
cause a denial of service or potentially cause other impact.

CVE-2017-11600

bo Zhang reported that the xfrm subsystem does not properly validate
one of the parameters to a netlink message. Local users with the
CAP_NET_ADMIN capability can use this to cause a denial of service or
potentially to execute arbitrary code.

CVE-2017-12134 / #866511 / XSA-229

Jan H. Sch&ouml;nherr of Amazon discovered that when Linux is running
in a Xen PV domain on an x86 system, it may incorrectly merge block
I/O requests. A buggy or malicious guest may trigger this bug in dom0
or a PV driver domain, causing a denial of service or potentially
execution of arbitrary code.

This issue can be mitigated by disabling merges on the
underlying back-end block devices, e.g.: echo 2 >
/sys/block/nvme0n1/queue/nomerges

CVE-2017-12153

bo Zhang reported that the cfg80211 (wifi) subsystem does not properly
validate the parameters to a netlink message. Local users with the
CAP_NET_ADMIN capability on a system with a wifi device can use this
to cause a denial of service.

CVE-2017-12154

Jim Mattson of Google reported that the KVM implementation for Intel
x86 processors did not correctly handle certain nested hypervisor
configurations. A malicious guest (or nested guest in a suitable L1
hypervisor) could use this for denial of service.

CVE-2017-14106

Andrey Konovalov of Google reported that a specific sequence of
operations on a TCP socket could lead to division by zero. A local
user could use this for denial of service.

CVE-2017-14140

Otto Ebeling reported that the move_pages() system call permitted
users to discover the memory layout of a set-UID process running under
their real user-ID. This made it easier for local users to exploit
vulnerabilities in programs installed with the set-UID permission bit
set.

CVE-2017-14156

'sohu0106' reported an information leak in the atyfb video driver. A
local user with access to a framebuffer device handled by this driver
could use this to obtain sensitive information.

CVE-2017-14340

Richard Wareing discovered that the XFS implementation allows the
creation of files with the 'realtime' flag on a filesystem with no
realtime device, which can result in a crash (oops). A local user with
access to an XFS filesystem that does not have a realtime device can
use this for denial of service.

CVE-2017-14489

ChunYu of Red Hat discovered that the iSCSI subsystem does not
properly validate the length of a netlink message, leading to memory
corruption. A local user with permission to manage iSCSI devices can
use this for denial of service or possibly to execute arbitrary code.

CVE-2017-1000111

Andrey Konovalov of Google reported that a race condition in the raw
packet (af_packet) feature. Local users with the CAP_NET_RAW
capability can use this to cause a denial of service or possibly to
execute arbitrary code.

CVE-2017-1000251 / #875881

Armis Labs discovered that the Bluetooth subsystem does not properly
validate L2CAP configuration responses, leading to a stack buffer
overflow. This is one of several vulnerabilities dubbed 'Blueborne'. A
nearby attacker can use this to cause a denial of service or possibly
to execute arbitrary code on a system with Bluetooth enabled.

CVE-2017-1000363

Roee Hay reported that the lp driver does not properly bounds-check
passed arguments. This has no security impact in Debian.

CVE-2017-1000365

It was discovered that argument and environment pointers are not
properly taken into account by the size restrictions on arguments and
environmental strings passed through execve(). A local attacker can
take advantage of this flaw in conjunction with other flaws to execute
arbitrary code.

CVE-2017-1000380

Alexander Potapenko of Google reported a race condition in the ALSA
(sound) timer driver, leading to an information leak. A local user
with permission to access sound devices could use this to obtain
sensitive information.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version
3.2.93-1. This version also includes bug fixes from upstream versions
up to and including 3.2.93.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version
3.16.43-2+deb8u4 or were fixed in an earlier version.

For Debian 9 'Stretch', these problems have been fixed in version
4.9.30-2+deb9u4 or were fixed in an earlier version.

    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 : - The pagemap_open function in fs/proc/task_mmu.c in the Linux kernel before 3.19.3, as used in Android 6.0.1 before 2016-03-01, allows local users to obtain sensitive physical-address information by reading a pagemap file, aka Android internal bug 25739721.(CVE-2016-0823i1/4%0 - drivers/hid/hid-steelseries.c in the Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.11, when CONFIG_HID_STEELSERIES is enabled, allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based out-of-bounds write) via a crafted device.(CVE-2013-2891i1/4%0 - The overlayfs implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.5.2 does not properly maintain POSIX ACL xattr data, which allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging a group-writable setgid directory.(CVE-2016-1575i1/4%0 - Integer overflow in the vc4_get_bcl function in drivers/gpu/drm/vc4/vc4_gem.c in the VideoCore DRM driver in the Linux kernel before 4.9.7 allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted size value in a VC4_SUBMIT_CL ioctl call.(CVE-2017-5576i1/4%0 - The KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.12.5 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (system crash) via a VAPIC synchronization operation involving a page-end address.(CVE-2013-6368i1/4%0 - It was found that the code in net/sctp/socket.c in the Linux kernel through 4.10.1 does not properly restrict association peel-off operations during certain wait states, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (invalid unlock and double free) via a multithreaded application. This vulnerability was introduced by CVE-2017-5986 fix (commit 2dcab5984841).(CVE-2017-6353i1/4%0 - net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_proto_dccp.c in the Linux kernel through 3.13.6 uses a DCCP header pointer incorrectly, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a DCCP packet that triggers a call to the (1) dccp_new, (2) dccp_packet, or (3) dccp_error function.(CVE-2014-2523i1/4%0 - Race condition vulnerability was found in drivers/misc/mic/vop/vop_vringh.c in the MIC VOP driver in the Linux kernel before 4.6.1. MIC VOP driver does two successive reads from user space to read a variable length data structure. Local user can obtain sensitive information from kernel memory or can cause DoS by corrupting kernel memory if the data structure changes between the two reads.(CVE-2016-5728i1/4%0 - An issue was discovered in the btrfs filesystem code in the Linux kernel. An invalid pointer dereference in io_ctl_map_page() when mounting and operating a crafted btrfs image is due to a lack of block group item validation in check_leaf_item() in fs/btrfs/tree-checker.c function. This could lead to a system crash and a denial of service.(CVE-2018-14613i1/4%0 - 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-2014-9322i1/4%0 - The keyring_search_aux function in security/keys/keyring.c in the Linux kernel allows local users to cause a denial of service via a request_key system call for the

    device.(CVE-2013-2891i1/4%0

  - The overlayfs implementation in the Linux kernel
    through 4.5.2 does not properly maintain POSIX ACL
    xattr data, which allows local users to gain privileges
    by leveraging a group-writable setgid
    directory.(CVE-2016-1575i1/4%0

  - Integer overflow in the vc4_get_bcl function in
    drivers/gpu/drm/vc4/vc4_gem.c in the VideoCore DRM
    driver in the Linux kernel before 4.9.7 allows local
    users to cause a denial of service or possibly have
    unspecified other impact via a crafted size value in a
    VC4_SUBMIT_CL ioctl call.(CVE-2017-5576i1/4%0

  - The KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.12.5
    allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial
    of service (system crash) via a VAPIC synchronization
    operation involving a page-end
    address.(CVE-2013-6368i1/4%0

  - It was found that the code in net/sctp/socket.c in the
    Linux kernel through 4.10.1 does not properly restrict
    association peel-off operations during certain wait
    states, which allows local users to cause a denial of
    service (invalid unlock and double free) via a
    multithreaded application. This vulnerability was
    introduced by CVE-2017-5986 fix (commit
    2dcab5984841).(CVE-2017-6353i1/4%0

  - net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_proto_dccp.c in the Linux
    kernel through 3.13.6 uses a DCCP header pointer
    incorrectly, which allows remote attackers to cause a
    denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute
    arbitrary code via a DCCP packet that triggers a call
    to the (1) dccp_new, (2) dccp_packet, or (3) dccp_error
    function.(CVE-2014-2523i1/4%0

  - Race condition vulnerability was found in
    drivers/misc/mic/vop/vop_vringh.c in the MIC VOP driver
    in the Linux kernel before 4.6.1. MIC VOP driver does
    two successive reads from user space to read a variable
    length data structure. Local user can obtain sensitive
    information from kernel memory or can cause DoS by
    corrupting kernel memory if the data structure changes
    between the two reads.(CVE-2016-5728i1/4%0

  - An issue was discovered in the btrfs filesystem code in
    the Linux kernel. An invalid pointer dereference in
    io_ctl_map_page() when mounting and operating a crafted
    btrfs image is due to a lack of block group item
    validation in check_leaf_item() in
    fs/btrfs/tree-checker.c function. This could lead to a
    system crash and a denial of service.(CVE-2018-14613i1/4%0

  - 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-2014-9322i1/4%0

  - The keyring_search_aux function in
    security/keys/keyring.c in the Linux kernel allows
    local users to cause a denial of service via a
    request_key system call for the 'dead' key
    type.(CVE-2017-6951i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's XFS file
    system handled replacing of remote attributes under
    certain conditions. A local user with access to XFS
    file system mount could potentially use this flaw to
    escalate their privileges on the
    system.(CVE-2015-0274i1/4%0

  - A memory leak in the kernel_read_file function in
    fs/exec.c in the Linux kernel through 4.20.11 allows
    attackers to cause a denial of service (memory
    consumption) by triggering vfs_read
    failures.(CVE-2019-8980i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the kernel's implementation of the
    Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF). A local attacker could
    craft BPF code to crash the system by creating a
    situation in which the JIT compiler would fail to
    correctly optimize the JIT image on the last pass. This
    would lead to the CPU executing instructions that were
    not part of the JIT code.(CVE-2015-4700i1/4%0

  - A security flaw was discovered in
    nl80211_set_rekey_data() function in the Linux kernel
    since v3.1-rc1 through v4.13. This function does not
    check whether the required attributes are present in a
    netlink request. This request can be issued by a user
    with CAP_NET_ADMIN privilege and may result in NULL
    dereference and a system crash.(CVE-2017-12153i1/4%0

  - The atyfb_ioctl function in
    drivers/video/fbdev/aty/atyfb_base.c in the Linux
    kernel through 4.12.10 does not initialize a certain
    data structure, which allows local users to obtain
    sensitive information from kernel stack memory by
    reading locations associated with padding
    bytes.(CVE-2017-14156i1/4%0

  - kernel/events/core.c in the performance subsystem in
    the Linux kernel before 4.0 mismanages locks during
    certain migrations, which allows local users to gain
    privileges via a crafted application, aka Android
    internal bug 31095224.(CVE-2016-6787i1/4%0

  - The ioresources_init function in kernel/resource.c in
    the Linux kernel through 4.7, as used in Android before
    2016-08-05 on Nexus 6 and 7 (2013) devices, uses weak
    permissions for /proc/iomem, which allows local users
    to obtain sensitive information by reading this file,
    aka Android internal bug 28814213 and Qualcomm internal
    bug CR786116. NOTE: the permissions may be intentional
    in most non-Android contexts.(CVE-2015-8944i1/4%0

  - Race condition in the ioctl_file_dedupe_range function
    in fs/ioctl.c in the Linux kernel through 4.7 allows
    local users to cause a denial of service (heap-based
    buffer overflow) or possibly gain privileges by
    changing a certain count value, aka a 'double fetch'
    vulnerability.(CVE-2016-6516i1/4%0

  - It was found that the timer functionality in the Linux
    kernel ALSA subsystem is prone to a race condition
    between read and ioctl system call handlers, resulting
    in an uninitialized memory disclosure to user space. A
    local user could use this flaw to read information
    belonging to other users.(CVE-2017-1000380i1/4%0

"According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the
EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following
vulnerabilities :

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel where the coredump
    implementation does not use locking or other mechanisms
    to prevent vma layout or vma flags changes while it
    runs. This allows local users to obtain sensitive
    information, cause a denial of service (DoS), or
    possibly have unspecified other impact by triggering a
    race condition with mmget_not_zero or get_task_mm
    calls.(CVE-2019-11599)

  - The Siemens R3964 line discipline driver in
    drivers/tty/n_r3964.c in the Linux kernel before 5.0.8
    has multiple race conditions.(CVE-2019-11486)

  - A race condition in perf_event_open() allows local
    attackers to leak sensitive data from setuid programs.
    As no relevant locks (in particular the
    cred_guard_mutex) are held during the
    ptrace_may_access() call, it is possible for the
    specified target task to perform an execve() syscall
    with setuid execution before perf_event_alloc()
    actually attaches to it, allowing an attacker to bypass
    the ptrace_may_access() check and the
    perf_event_exit_task(current) call that is performed in
    install_exec_creds() during privileged execve()
    calls.(CVE-2019-3901)

  - The atyfb_ioctl function in
    drivers/video/fbdev/aty/atyfb_base.c in the Linux
    kernel through 4.12.10 does not initialize a certain
    data structure, which allows local users to obtain
    sensitive information from kernel stack memory by
    reading locations associated with padding
    bytes.(CVE-2017-14156)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ext4 filesystem
    code. A use-after-free is possible in
    ext4_ext_remove_space() function when mounting and
    operating a crafted ext4 image.(CVE-2018-10876)

  - A flaw was found in the implementation of the 'fill
    buffer', a mechanism used by modern CPUs when a
    cache-miss is made on L1 CPU cache. If an attacker can
    generate a load operation that would create a page
    fault, the execution will continue speculatively with
    incorrect data from the fill buffer while the data is
    fetched from higher level caches. This response time
    can be measured to infer data in the fill buffer.
    (CVE-2018-12130)

  - Modern Intel microprocessors implement hardware-level
    micro-optimizations to improve the performance of
    writing data back to CPU caches. The write operation is
    split into STA (STore Address) and STD (STore Data)
    sub-operations. These sub-operations allow the
    processor to hand-off address generation logic into
    these sub-operations for optimized writes. Both of
    these sub-operations write to a shared distributed
    processor structure called the 'processor store
    buffer'. As a result, an unprivileged attacker could
    use this flaw to read private data resident within the
    CPU's processor store buffer. (CVE-2018-12126)

  - Microprocessors use a aEUR~load portaEURtm subcomponent to
    perform load operations from memory or IO. During a
    load operation, the load port receives data from the
    memory or IO subsystem and then provides the data to
    the CPU registers and operations in the CPUaEURtms
    pipelines. Stale load operations results are stored in
    the 'load port' table until overwritten by newer
    operations. Certain load-port operations triggered by
    an attacker can be used to reveal data about previous
    stale requests leaking data back to the attacker via a
    timing side-channel. (CVE-2018-12127)

  - Uncacheable memory on some microprocessors utilizing
    speculative execution may allow an authenticated user
    to potentially enable information disclosure via a side
    channel with local access. (CVE-2019-11091)

    descriptionIt was discovered that an out-of-bounds write vulnerability existed in the Flash-Friendly File System (f2fs) in the Linux kernel. An attacker could construct a malicious file system that, when mounted, could cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-0750) It was discovered that a race condition leading to a use-after-free vulnerability existed in the ALSA PCM subsystem of the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-0861) It was discovered that the KVM implementation in the Linux kernel allowed passthrough of the diagnostic I/O port 0x80.
