Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Flooding
    An attacker consumes the resources of a target by rapidly engaging in a large number of interactions with the target. This type of attack generally exposes a weakness in rate limiting or flow control in management of interactions. Since each request consumes some of the target's resources, if a sufficiently large number of requests must be processed at the same time then the target's resources can be exhausted. The degree to which the attack is successful depends upon the volume of requests in relation to the amount of the resource the target has access to, and other mitigating circumstances such as the target's ability to shift load or acquired additional resources to deal with the depletion. The more protected the resource and the greater the quantity of it that must be consumed, the more resources the attacker may need to have at their disposal. A typical TCP/IP flooding attack is a Distributed Denial-of-Service attack where many machines simultaneously make a large number of requests to a target. Against a target with strong defenses and a large pool of resources, many tens of thousands of attacking machines may be required. When successful this attack prevents legitimate users from accessing the service and can cause the target to crash. This attack differs from resource depletion through leaks or allocations in that the latter attacks do not rely on the volume of requests made to the target but instead focus on manipulation of the target's operations. The key factor in a flooding attack is the number of requests the attacker can make in a given period of time. The greater this number, the more likely an attack is to succeed against a given target.
  • Excessive Allocation
    An attacker causes the target to allocate excessive resources to servicing the attackers' request, thereby reducing the resources available for legitimate services and degrading or denying services. Usually, this attack focuses on memory allocation, but any finite resource on the target could be the attacked, including bandwidth, processing cycles, or other resources. This attack does not attempt to force this allocation through a large number of requests (that would be Resource Depletion through Flooding) but instead uses one or a small number of requests that are carefully formatted to force the target to allocate excessive resources to service this request(s). Often this attack takes advantage of a bug in the target to cause the target to allocate resources vastly beyond what would be needed for a normal request. For example, using an Integer Attack, the attacker could cause a variable that controls allocation for a request to hold an excessively large value. Excessive allocation of resources can render a service degraded or unavailable to legitimate users and can even lead to crashing of the target.
  • Resource Leak Exposure
    An attacker utilizes a resource leak on the target to deplete the quantity of the resource available to service legitimate requests. Resource leaks most often come in the form of memory leaks where memory is allocated but never released after it has served its purpose, however, theoretically, any other resource that can be reserved can be targeted if the target fails to release the reservation when the reserved resource block is no longer needed. In this attack, the attacker determines what activity results in leaked resources and then triggers that activity on the target. Since some leaks may be small, this may require a large number of requests by the attacker. However, this attack differs from a flooding attack in that the rate of requests is generally not significant. This is because the lost resources due to the leak accumulate until the target is reset, usually by restarting it. Thus, a resource-poor attacker who would be unable to flood the target can still utilize this attack. Resource depletion through leak differs from resource depletion through allocation in that, in the former, the attacker may not be able to control the size of each leaked allocation, but instead allows the leak to accumulate until it is large enough to affect the target's performance. When depleting resources through allocation, the allocated resource may eventually be released by the target so the attack relies on making sure that the allocation size itself is prohibitive of normal operations by the target.

    descriptionThe SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 SP4 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes. This update adds mitigations for various side channel attacks against modern CPUs that could disclose content of otherwise unreadable memory (bnc#1068032). - CVE-2017-5753: Local attackers on systems with modern CPUs featuring deep instruction pipelining could use attacker controllable speculative execution over code patterns in the Linux Kernel to leak content from otherwise not readable memory in the same address space, allowing retrieval of passwords, cryptographic keys and other secrets. This problem is mitigated by adding speculative fencing on affected code paths throughout the Linux kernel. This issue is addressed for the x86_64, the IBM Power and IBM zSeries architecture. - CVE-2017-5715: Local attackers on systems with modern CPUs featuring branch prediction could use mispredicted branches to speculatively execute code patterns that in turn could be made to leak other non-readable content in the same address space, an attack similar to CVE-2017-5753. This problem is mitigated by disabling predictive branches, depending on CPU architecture either by firmware updates and/or fixes in the user-kernel privilege boundaries. This is done with help of Linux Kernel fixes on the Intel/AMD x86_64 and IBM zSeries architectures. On x86_64, this requires also updates of the CPU microcode packages, delivered in separate updates. For IBM Power and zSeries the required firmware updates are supplied over regular channels by IBM. As this feature can have a performance impact, it can be disabled using the

    security and bugfixes. This update adds mitigations for various side
    channel attacks against modern CPUs that could disclose content of
    otherwise unreadable memory (bnc#1068032).
    
      - CVE-2017-5753: Local attackers on systems with modern
        CPUs featuring deep instruction pipelining could use
        attacker controllable speculative execution over code
        patterns in the Linux Kernel to leak content from
        otherwise not readable memory in the same address space,
        allowing retrieval of passwords, cryptographic keys and
        other secrets. This problem is mitigated by adding
        speculative fencing on affected code paths throughout
        the Linux kernel. This issue is addressed for the
        x86_64, the IBM Power and IBM zSeries architecture.
    
      - CVE-2017-5715: Local attackers on systems with modern
        CPUs featuring branch prediction could use mispredicted
        branches to speculatively execute code patterns that in
        turn could be made to leak other non-readable content in
        the same address space, an attack similar to
        CVE-2017-5753. This problem is mitigated by disabling
        predictive branches, depending on CPU architecture
        either by firmware updates and/or fixes in the
        user-kernel privilege boundaries. This is done with help
        of Linux Kernel fixes on the Intel/AMD x86_64 and IBM
        zSeries architectures. On x86_64, this requires also
        updates of the CPU microcode packages, delivered in

        firmware updates are supplied over regular channels by
        IBM. As this feature can have a performance impact, it
        can be disabled using the 'nospec' kernel commandline
        option.
    
      - CVE-2017-5754: Local attackers on systems with modern
        CPUs featuring deep instruction pipelining could use
        code patterns in userspace to speculative executive code
        that would read otherwise read protected memory, an
        attack similar to CVE-2017-5753. This problem is
        mitigated by unmapping the Linux Kernel from the user
        address space during user code execution, following a
        approach called 'KAISER'. The terms used here are
        'KAISER' / 'Kernel Address Isolation' and 'PTI' / 'Page
        Table Isolation'. This update does this on the Intel
        x86_64 and IBM Power architecture. Updates are also
        necessary for the ARM architecture, but will be
        delivered in the next round of updates. This feature can
        be enabled / disabled by the 'pti=[on|off|auto]' or
        'nopti' commandline options. The following security bugs
        were fixed :
    
      - CVE-2017-17806: The HMAC implementation (crypto/hmac.c)
        in the Linux kernel did not validate that the underlying
        cryptographic hash algorithm is unkeyed, allowing a
        local attacker able to use the AF_ALG-based hash
        interface (CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER_API_HASH) and the SHA-3
        hash algorithm (CONFIG_CRYPTO_SHA3) to cause a kernel
        stack-based buffer overflow by executing a crafted
        sequence of system calls that encounter a missing SHA-3
        initialization (bnc#1073874).
    
      - CVE-2017-17805: The Salsa20 encryption algorithm in the
        Linux kernel did not correctly handle zero-length
        inputs, allowing a local attacker able to use the
        AF_ALG-based skcipher interface
        (CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER_API_SKCIPHER) to cause a denial of
        service (uninitialized-memory free and kernel crash) or
        have 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 were
        vulnerable (bnc#1073792).
    
      - CVE-2017-15868: The bnep_add_connection function in
        net/bluetooth/bnep/core.c in the Linux kernel did not
        ensure that an l2cap socket is available, which allowed
        local users to gain privileges via a crafted application
        (bnc#1071470).
    
      - CVE-2017-13167: An elevation of privilege vulnerability
        in the kernel sound timer. (bnc#1072876).
    
      - CVE-2017-16538: drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb-v2/lmedm04.c
        in the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a
        denial of service (general protection fault and system
        crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a
        crafted USB device, related to a missing warm-start
        check and incorrect attach timing
        (dm04_lme2510_frontend_attach versus dm04_lme2510_tuner)
        (bnc#1066569).
    
      - CVE-2017-17558: The usb_destroy_configuration function
        in drivers/usb/core/config.c in the USB core subsystem
        in the Linux kernel did not consider the maximum number
        of configurations and interfaces before attempting to
        release resources, which allowed local users to cause a
        denial of service (out-of-bounds write access) or
        possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB
        device (bnc#1072561).
    
      - CVE-2017-17450: net/netfilter/xt_osf.c in the Linux
        kernel did not require the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for
        add_callback and remove_callback operations, which
        allowed local users to bypass intended access
        restrictions because the xt_osf_fingers data structure
        is shared across all net namespaces (bnc#1071695).
    
      - CVE-2017-8824: The dccp_disconnect function in
        net/dccp/proto.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users
        to gain privileges or cause a denial of service
        (use-after-free) via an AF_UNSPEC connect system call
        during the DCCP_LISTEN state (bnc#1070771).
    
      - CVE-2017-16939: The XFRM dump policy implementation in
        net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c in the Linux kernel allowed local
        users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service
        (use-after-free) via a crafted SO_RCVBUF setsockopt
        system call in conjunction with XFRM_MSG_GETPOLICY
        Netlink messages (bnc#1069702).
    
      - CVE-2017-15115: The sctp_do_peeloff function in
        net/sctp/socket.c in the Linux kernel did not check
        whether the intended netns is used in a peel-off action,
        which allowed local users to cause a denial of service
        (use-after-free and system crash) or possibly have
        unspecified other impact via crafted system calls
        (bnc#1068671).
    
      - CVE-2017-14106: The tcp_disconnect function in
        net/ipv4/tcp.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users
        to cause a denial of service (__tcp_select_window
        divide-by-zero error and system crash) by triggering a
        disconnect within a certain tcp_recvmsg code path
        (bnc#1056982).
    
      - CVE-2017-11600: net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c in the Linux
        kernel through 4.12.3, when CONFIG_XFRM_MIGRATE is
        enabled, did not ensure that the dir value of
        xfrm_userpolicy_id is XFRM_POLICY_MAX or less, which
        allowed local users to cause a denial of service
        (out-of-bounds access) or possibly have unspecified
        other impact via an XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE xfrm Netlink
        message (bnc#1050231).
    
      - CVE-2017-7472: The KEYS subsystem in the Linux kernel
        allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory
        consumption) via a series of
        KEY_REQKEY_DEFL_THREAD_KEYRING keyctl_set_reqkey_keyring
        calls (bnc#1034862).
    
      - CVE-2017-16534: The cdc_parse_cdc_header function in
        drivers/usb/core/message.c in the Linux kernel allowed
        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 (bnc#1066693).

    descriptionIt 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.

This update adds mitigations for various side channel attacks against modern CPUs that could disclose content of otherwise unreadable memory (bnc#1068032). - CVE-2017-5753: Local attackers on systems with modern CPUs featuring deep instruction pipelining could use attacker controllable speculative execution over code patterns in the Linux Kernel to leak content from otherwise not readable memory in the same address space, allowing retrieval of passwords, cryptographic keys and other secrets. This problem is mitigated by adding speculative fencing on affected code paths throughout the Linux kernel. - CVE-2017-5715: Local attackers on systems with modern CPUs featuring branch prediction could use mispredicted branches to speculatively execute code patterns that in turn could be made to leak other non-readable content in the same address space, an attack similar to CVE-2017-5753. This problem is mitigated by disabling predictive branches, depending on CPU architecture either by firmware updates and/or fixes in the user-kernel privilege boundaries.

    CVE-2016-2188
    
    Ralf Spenneberg of OpenSource Security reported that the iowarrior
    device driver did not sufficiently validate USB descriptors. This
    allowed a physically present user with a specially designed USB device
    to cause a denial of service (crash).
    
    CVE-2016-9604
    
    It was discovered that the keyring subsystem allowed a process to set
    a special internal keyring as its session keyring. The security impact
    in this version of the kernel is unknown.
    
    CVE-2016-10200
    
    Baozeng Ding and Andrey Konovalov reported a race condition in the
    L2TP implementation which could corrupt its table of bound sockets. A
    local user could use this to cause a denial of service (crash) or
    possibly for privilege escalation.
    
    CVE-2017-2647 / CVE-2017-6951
    
    idl3r reported that the keyring subsystem would allow a process to
    search for 'dead' keys, causing a NULL pointer dereference. A local
    user could use this to cause a denial of service (crash).
    
    CVE-2017-2671
    
    Daniel Jiang discovered a race condition in the ping socket
    implementation. A local user with access to ping sockets could use
    this to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly for privilege
    escalation. This feature is not accessible to any users by default.
    
    CVE-2017-5967
    
    Xing Gao reported that the /proc/timer_list file showed information
    about all processes, not considering PID namespaces. If timer
    debugging was enabled by a privileged user, this leaked information to
    processes contained in PID namespaces.
    
    CVE-2017-5970
    
    Andrey Konovalov discovered a denial of service flaw in the IPv4
    networking code. This can be triggered by a local or remote attacker
    if a local UDP or raw socket has the IP_RETOPTS option enabled.
    
    CVE-2017-7184
    
    Chaitin Security Research Lab discovered that the net xfrm subsystem
    did not sufficiently validate replay state parameters, allowing a heap
    buffer overflow. This can be used by a local user with the
    CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for privilege escalation.
    
    CVE-2017-7261
    
    Vladis Dronov and Murray McAllister reported that the vmwgfx driver
    did not sufficiently validate rendering surface parameters. In a
    VMware guest, this can be used by a local user to cause a denial of
    service (crash).
    
    CVE-2017-7273
    
    Benoit Camredon reported that the hid-cypress driver did not
    sufficiently validate HID reports. This possibly allowed a physically
    present user with a specially designed USB device to cause a denial of
    service (crash).
    
    CVE-2017-7294
    
    Li Qiang reported that the vmwgfx driver did not sufficiently validate
    rendering surface parameters. In a VMware guest, this can be used by a
    local user to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly for
    privilege escalation.
    
    CVE-2017-7308
    
    Andrey Konovalov reported that the packet socket (AF_PACKET)
    implementation did not sufficiently validate buffer parameters. This
    can be used by a local user with the CAP_NET_RAW capability for
    privilege escalation.
    
    CVE-2017-7472
    
    Eric Biggers reported that the keyring subsystem allowed a thread to
    create new thread keyrings repeatedly, causing a memory leak. This can
    be used by a local user to cause a denial of service (memory
    exhaustion).
    
    CVE-2017-7616
    
    Chris Salls reported an information leak in the 32-bit big-endian
    compatibility implementations of set_mempolicy() and mbind(). This
    does not affect any architecture supported in Debian 7 LTS.
    
    CVE-2017-7618
    
    Sabrina Dubroca reported that the cryptographic hash subsystem does
    not correctly handle submission of unaligned data to a device that is
    already busy, resulting in infinite recursion. On some systems this
    can be used by local users to cause a denial of service (crash).
    
    For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version
    3.2.88-1. This version also includes bug fixes from upstream version
    3.2.88, and fixes some older security issues in the keyring, packet
    socket and cryptographic hash subsystems that do not have CVE IDs.
    
    For Debian 8 'Jessie', most of these problems have been fixed in
    version 3.16.43-1 which will be part of the next point release.

    descriptionThe SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP1 LTSS kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes. Four new speculative execution information leak issues have been identified in Intel CPUs. (bsc#1111331) CVE-2018-12126: Microarchitectural Store Buffer Data Sampling (MSBDS) CVE-2018-12127: Microarchitectural Fill Buffer Data Sampling (MFBDS) CVE-2018-12130: Microarchitectural Load Port Data Samling (MLPDS) CVE-2019-11091: Microarchitectural Data Sampling Uncacheable Memory (MDSUM) This kernel update contains software mitigations for these issues, which also utilize CPU microcode updates shipped in parallel. For more information on this set of information leaks, check out https://www.suse.com/support/kb/doc/?id=7023736 The following security bugs were fixed: CVE-2016-10741: fs/xfs/xfs_aops.c allowed local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) because there is a race condition between direct and memory-mapped I/O (associated with a hole) that is handled with BUG_ON instead of an I/O failure (bnc#1114920 bnc#1124010). CVE-2017-1000407: By flooding the diagnostic port 0x80 an exception can be triggered leading to a kernel panic (bnc#1071021). CVE-2017-16533: The usbhid_parse function in drivers/hid/usbhid/hid-core.c allowed 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 (bnc#1066674). CVE-2017-7273: The cp_report_fixup function in drivers/hid/hid-cypress.c allowed physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (integer underflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted HID report (bnc#1031240). CVE-2017-7472: The KEYS subsystem allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a series of KEY_REQKEY_DEFL_THREAD_KEYRING keyctl_set_reqkey_keyring calls (bnc#1034862). CVE-2018-14633: A security flaw was found in the chap_server_compute_md5() function in the ISCSI target code in the Linux kernel in a way an authentication request from an ISCSI initiator is processed. An unauthenticated remote attacker can cause a stack buffer overflow and smash up to 17 bytes of the stack. The attack requires the iSCSI target to be enabled on the victim host.

A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section. The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. Security Fix(es) : An industry-wide issue was found in the way many modern microprocessor designs have implemented speculative execution of instructions (a commonly used performance optimization). There are three primary variants of the issue which differ in the way the speculative execution can be exploited. Note: This issue is present in hardware and cannot be fully fixed via software update. The updated kernel packages provide software mitigation for this hardware issue at a cost of potential performance penalty. Please refer to References section for further information about this issue and the performance impact. In this update initial mitigations for IBM Power (PowerPC) and IBM zSeries (S390) architectures are provided. * Variant CVE-2017-5715 triggers the speculative execution by utilizing branch target injection. It relies on the presence of a precisely-defined instruction sequence in the privileged code as well as the fact that memory accesses may cause allocation into the microprocessor

    descriptionAccording to the version of the vzkernel package and the readykernel-patch installed, the Virtuozzo installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities : - It was found that keyctl_set_reqkey_keyring() function leaked thread keyring which could allow an unprivileged local user to exhaust kernel memory. - net/sctp/socket.c in the Linux kernel through 4.10.1 did not properly restrict association peel-off operations during certain wait states, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (invalid unlock and double free) via a multithreaded application. - Race condition in the sctp_wait_for_sndbuf function in net/sctp/socket.c in the Linux kernel before 4.9.11 could allow local users to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and panic) via a multithreaded application that peeled off an association in a certain buffer-full state. - Andrey Konovalov discovered that signed integer overflows existed in the setsockopt() system call when handling the SO_SNDBUFFORCE and SO_RCVBUFFORCE options. A local attacker with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash or memory corruption). - A vulnerability was discovered in the handling of pid namespaces in the kernel. A privileged user inside a container could trigger a kernel crash (NULL pointer dereference in proc_flush_task()) using a sequence of system calls including wait4(). Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Virtuozzo security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

    descriptionAccording to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities : - The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz), the core of any Linux operating system. The kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system: memory allocation, process allocation, device input and output, etc.Security Fix(es):The yam_ioctl function in drivers et/hamradio/yam.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12.8 does not initialize a certain structure member, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for an SIOCYAMGCFG ioctl call.(CVE-2014-1446)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 allows 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.(CVE-2015-1350)A certain backport in the TCP Fast Open implementation for the Linux kernel before 3.18 does not properly maintain a count value, which allow local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via the Fast Open feature, as demonstrated by visiting the chrome://flags/#enable-tcp-fast-open URL when using certain 3.10.x through 3.16.x kernel builds, including longterm-maintenance releases and ckt (aka Canonical Kernel Team) builds.(CVE-2015-3332)The hub_activate function in drivers/usb/core/hub.c in the Linux kernel before 4.3.5 does not properly maintain a hub-interface data structure, which allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid memory access and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by unplugging a USB hub device.(CVE-2015-8816)In the Linux kernel before 4.1.4, a buffer overflow occurs when checking userspace params in drivers/media/dvb-frontends/cx24116.c. The maximum size for a DiSEqC command is 6, according to the userspace API. However, the code allows larger values such as 23.(CVE-2015-9289)The create_fixed_stream_quirk function in sound/usb/quirks.c in the snd-usb-audio driver in the Linux kernel before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference or double free, and system crash) via a crafted endpoints value in a USB device descriptor.(CVE-2016-2184)The ati_remote2_probe function in drivers/input/misc/ati_remote2.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a crafted endpoints value in a USB device descriptor.(CVE-2016-2185)The powermate_probe function in drivers/input/misc/powermate.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a crafted endpoints value in a USB device descriptor.(CVE-2016-2186)The gtco_probe function in drivers/input/tablet/gtco.c in the Linux kernel through 4.5.2 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a crafted endpoints value in a USB device descriptor.(CVE-2016-2187)Double free vulnerability in the snd_usbmidi_create function in sound/usb/midi.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors involving an invalid USB descriptor.(CVE-2016-2384)The treo_attach function in drivers/usb/serial/visor.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by inserting a USB device that lacks a (1) bulk-in or (2) interrupt-in endpoint.(CVE-2016-2782)The acm_probe function in drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a USB device without both a control and a data endpoint descriptor.(CVE-2016-3138)The wacom_probe function in drivers/input/tablet/wacom_sys.c in the Linux kernel before 3.17 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a crafted endpoints value in a USB device descriptor.(CVE-2016-3139)The digi_port_init function in drivers/usb/serial/digi_acceleport.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a crafted endpoints value in a USB device descriptor.(CVE-2016-3140)The ims_pcu_parse_cdc_data function in drivers/input/misc/ims-pcu.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a USB device without both a master and a slave interface.(CVE-2016-3689)The snd_timer_user_params function in sound/core/timer.c in the Linux kernel through 4.6 does not initialize a certain data structure, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via crafted use of the ALSA timer interface.(CVE-2016-4569)sound/core/timer.c in the Linux kernel through 4.6 does not initialize certain r1 data structures, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via crafted use of the ALSA timer interface, related to the (1) snd_timer_user_ccallback and (2) snd_timer_user_tinterrupt functions.(CVE-2016-4578)The x25_negotiate_facilities function in net/x25/x25_facilities.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5.5 does not properly initialize a certain data structure, which allows attackers to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via an X.25 Call Request.(CVE-2016-4580)The arcmsr_iop_message_xfer function in drivers/scsi/arcmsr/arcmsr_hba.c in the Linux kernel through 4.8.2 does not restrict a certain length field, which allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) via an ARCMSR_MESSAGE_WRITE_WQBUFFER control code.(CVE-2016-7425)The Linux Kernel running on AMD64 systems will sometimes map the contents of PIE executable, the heap or ld.so to where the stack is mapped allowing attackers to more easily manipulate the stack. Linux Kernel version 4.11.5 is affected.(CVE-2017-1000379)In android for MSM, Firefox OS for MSM, QRD Android, with all Android releases from CAF using the Linux kernel, a buffer overread is observed in nl80211_set_station when user space application sends attribute NL80211_ATTR_LOCAL_MESH_POWER_MODE with data of size less than 4 bytes(CVE-2017-11089)An elevation of privilege vulnerability in the kernel sound timer. Product: Android. Versions: Android kernel. Android ID A-37240993.(CVE-2017-13167)In ashmem_ioctl of ashmem.c, there is an out-of-bounds write due to insufficient locking when accessing asma. This could lead to a local elevation of privilege enabling code execution as a privileged process with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Product: Android. Versions: Android kernel. Android ID: A-66954097.(CVE-2017-13216)A information disclosure vulnerability in the Upstream kernel encrypted-keys. Product: Android. Versions: Android kernel. Android ID: A-70526974.(CVE-2017-13305)An integer overflow in the qla2x00_sysfs_write_optrom_ctl function in drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_attr.c in the Linux kernel through 4.12.10 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) by leveraging root access.(CVE-2017-14051)The Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.15.9 mishandles a mutex within libsas, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (deadlock) by triggering certain error-handling code.(CVE-2017-18232)An issue was discovered in net/ipv6/ip6mr.c in the Linux kernel before 4.11. By setting a specific socket option, an attacker can control a pointer in kernel land and cause an inet_csk_listen_stop general protection fault, or potentially execute arbitrary code under certain circumstances. The issue can be triggered as root (e.g., inside a default LXC container or with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability) or after namespace unsharing. This occurs because sk_type and protocol are not checked in the appropriate part of the ip6_mroute_* functions. NOTE: this affects Linux distributions that use 4.9.x longterm kernels before 4.9.187.(CVE-2017-18509)An issue was discovered in drivers/i2c/i2c-core-smbus.c in the Linux kernel before 4.14.15. There is an out of bounds write in the function i2c_smbus_xfer_emulated.(CVE-2017-18551)An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.14.11. A double free may be caused by the function allocate_trace_buffer in the file kernel/trace/trace.c.(CVE-2017-18595)The vmw_surface_define_ioctl function in drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_surface.c in the Linux kernel through 4.10.5 does not check for a zero value of certain levels data, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (ZERO_SIZE_PTR dereference, and GPF and possibly panic) via a crafted ioctl call for a /dev/dri/renderD* device.(CVE-2017-7261)The KEYS subsystem in the Linux kernel before 4.10.13 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a series of KEY_REQKEY_DEFL_THREAD_KEYRING keyctl_set_reqkey_keyring calls.(CVE-2017-7472)The kernel_wait4 function in kernel/exit.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13, when an unspecified architecture and compiler is used, might allow local users to cause a denial of service by triggering an attempted use of the -INT_MIN value.(CVE-2018-10087)The kill_something_info function in kernel/signal.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13, when an unspecified architecture and compiler is used, might allow local users to cause a denial of service via an INT_MIN argument.(CVE-2018-10124)The xfs_dinode_verify function in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_inode_buf.c in the Linux kernel through 4.16.3 allows local users to cause a denial of service (xfs_ilock_attr_map_shared invalid pointer dereference) via a crafted xfs image.(CVE-2018-10322)The xfs_bmap_extents_to_btree function in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_bmap.c in the Linux kernel through 4.16.3 allows local users to cause a denial of service (xfs_bmapi_write NULL pointer dereference) via a crafted xfs image.(CVE-2018-10323)The do_get_mempolicy function in mm/mempolicy.c in the Linux kernel before 4.12.9 allows local users to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted system calls.(CVE-2018-10675)Linux kernel is vulnerable to a stack-out-of-bounds write in the ext4 filesystem code when mounting and writing to a crafted ext4 image in ext4_update_inline_data(). An attacker could use this to cause a system crash and a denial of service.(CVE-2018-10880)An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3. An Integer Overflow in kernel/time/posix-timers.c in the POSIX timer code is caused by the way the overrun accounting works. Depending on interval and expiry time values, the overrun can be larger than INT_MAX, but the accounting is int based. This basically makes the accounting values, which are visible to user space via timer_getoverrun(2) and siginfo::si_overrun, random. For example, a local user can cause a denial of service (signed integer overflow) via crafted mmap, futex, timer_create, and timer_settime system calls.(CVE-2018-12896)An issue was discovered in the proc_pid_stack function in fs/proc/base.c in the Linux kernel through 4.18.11. It does not ensure that only root may inspect the kernel stack of an arbitrary task, allowing a local attacker to exploit racy stack unwinding and leak kernel task stack contents.(CVE-2018-17972)An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.19. An information leak in cdrom_ioctl_select_disc in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c could be used by local attackers to read kernel memory because a cast from unsigned long to int interferes with bounds checking. This is similar to CVE-2018-10940 and CVE-2018-16658.(CVE-2018-18710 )An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.18.11. The ipddp_ioctl function in drivers et/appletalk/ipddp.c allows local users to obtain sensitive kernel address information by leveraging CAP_NET_ADMIN to read the ipddp_route dev and next fields via an SIOCFINDIPDDPRT ioctl call.(CVE-2018-20511)An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.18.7. In block/blk-core.c, there is an __blk_drain_queue() use-after-free because a certain error case is mishandled.(CVE-2018-20856)An issue was discovered in fs/xfs/xfs_super.c in the Linux kernel before 4.18. A use after free exists, related to xfs_fs_fill_super failure.(CVE-2018-20976)Systems with microprocessors utilizing speculative execution and branch prediction may allow unauthorized disclosure of information to an attacker with local user access via a speculative buffer overflow and side-channel analysis.(CVE-2018-3693)In the function sbusfb_ioctl_helper() in drivers/video/fbdev/sbuslib.c in the Linux kernel through 4.15, an integer signedness error allows arbitrary information leakage for the FBIOPUTCMAP_SPARC and FBIOGETCMAP_SPARC commands.(CVE-2018-6412)In nfc_llcp_build_sdreq_tlv of llcp_commands.c, there is a possible out of bounds write due to a missing bounds check. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Product: Android. Versions: Android kernel. Android ID: A-73083945.(CVE-2018-9518 )Insufficient access control in the Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi Software driver before version 21.10 may allow an unauthenticated user to potentially enable denial of service via adjacent access.(CVE-2019-0136)A vulnerability was found in Linux kernel

The kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system: memory allocation, process allocation, device input and output, etc.Security Fix(es):Systems with microprocessors utilizing speculative execution and indirect branch prediction may allow unauthorized disclosure of information to an attacker with local user access via a side-channel analysis of the data cache.(CVE-2017-5754)The ip6gre_err function in net/ipv6/ip6_gre.c in the Linux kernel allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via vectors involving GRE flags in an IPv6 packet, which trigger an out-of-bounds access.(CVE-2017-5897)The vmw_surface_define_ioctl function in drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_surface.c in the Linux kernel through 4.10.5 does not check for a zero value of certain levels data, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (ZERO_SIZE_PTR dereference, and GPF and possibly panic) via a crafted ioctl call for a /dev/dri/renderD* device.(CVE-2017-7261)The KEYS subsystem in the Linux kernel before 4.10.13 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a series of KEY_REQKEY_DEFL_THREAD_KEYRING keyctl_set_reqkey_keyring calls.(CVE-2017-7472)A flaw was found in the Linux kernel before version 4.12 in the way the KVM module processed the trap flag(TF) bit in EFLAGS during emulation of the syscall instruction, which leads to a debug exception(#DB) being raised in the guest stack. A user/process inside a guest could use this flaw to potentially escalate their privileges inside the guest. Linux guests are not affected by this.(CVE-2017-7518)The kill_something_info function in kernel/signal.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13, when an unspecified architecture and compiler is used, might allow local users to cause a denial of service via an INT_MIN argument.(CVE-2018-10124)The xfs_bmap_extents_to_btree function in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_bmap.c in the Linux kernel through 4.16.3 allows local users to cause a denial of service (xfs_bmapi_write NULL pointer dereference) via a crafted xfs image.(CVE-2018-10323)The Linux kernel before version 4.11 is vulnerable to a NULL pointer dereference in fs/cifs/cifsencrypt.c:setup_ntlmv2_rsp() that allows an attacker controlling a CIFS server to kernel panic a client that has this server mounted, because an empty TargetInfo field in an NTLMSSP setup negotiation response is mishandled during session recovery.(CVE-2018-1066)The do_get_mempolicy function in mm/mempolicy.c in the Linux kernel before 4.12.9 allows local users to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted system calls.(CVE-2018-10675)An issue was discovered in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_attr_leaf.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3. An OOPS may occur for a corrupted xfs image after xfs_da_shrink_inode() is called with a NULL bp.(CVE-2018-13094)An issue was discovered in fs/xfs/xfs_super.c in the Linux kernel before 4.18. A use after free exists, related to xfs_fs_fill_super failure.(CVE-2018-20976)Systems with microprocessors utilizing speculative execution and branch prediction may allow unauthorized disclosure of information to an attacker with local user access via a speculative buffer overflow and side-channel analysis.(CVE-2018-3693)In the function sbusfb_ioctl_helper() in drivers/video/fbdev/sbuslib.c in the Linux kernel through 4.15, an integer signedness error allows arbitrary information leakage for the FBIOPUTCMAP_SPARC and FBIOGETCMAP_SPARC commands.(CVE-2018-6412)Race condition in the store_int_with_restart() function in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce.c in the Linux kernel through 4.15.7 allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) by leveraging root access to write to the check_interval file in a /sys/devices/system/machinecheck/machinecheck directory. NOTE: a third party has indicated that this report is not security relevant.(CVE-2018-7995)In the hidp_process_report in bluetooth, there is an integer overflow. This could lead to an out of bounds write with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Product: Android Versions: Android kernel Android ID: A-65853588 References: Upstream kernel.(CVE-2018-9363)In nfc_llcp_build_sdreq_tlv of llcp_commands.c, there is a possible out of bounds write due to a missing bounds check. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Product: Android. Versions: Android kernel. Android ID: A-73083945.(CVE-2018-9518)A vulnerability was found in Linux kernel

    descriptionFrom Red Hat Security Advisory 2018:0151 : An update for kernel is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section. The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. Security Fix(es) : An industry-wide issue was found in the way many modern microprocessor designs have implemented speculative execution of instructions (a commonly used performance optimization). There are three primary variants of the issue which differ in the way the speculative execution can be exploited. Note: This issue is present in hardware and cannot be fully fixed via software update. The updated kernel packages provide software mitigation for this hardware issue at a cost of potential performance penalty. Please refer to References section for further information about this issue and the performance impact. In this update initial mitigations for IBM Power (PowerPC) and IBM zSeries (S390) architectures are provided. * Variant CVE-2017-5715 triggers the speculative execution by utilizing branch target injection. It relies on the presence of a precisely-defined instruction sequence in the privileged code as well as the fact that memory accesses may cause allocation into the microprocessor
