Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Forced Integer Overflow
    This attack forces an integer variable to go out of range. The integer variable is often used as an offset such as size of memory allocation or similarly. The attacker would typically control the value of such variable and try to get it out of range. For instance the integer in question is incremented past the maximum possible value, it may wrap to become a very small, or negative number, therefore providing a very incorrect value which can lead to unexpected behavior. At worst the attacker can execute arbitrary code.

    descriptionAccording to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities : - The XFRM dump policy implementation in net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.11 allows 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.(CVE-2017-16939) - The bio_map_user_iov and bio_unmap_user functions in block/bio.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.8 do unbalanced refcounting when a SCSI I/O vector has small consecutive buffers belonging to the same page. The bio_add_pc_page function merges them into one, but the page reference is never dropped. This causes a memory leak and possible system lockup (exploitable against the host OS by a guest OS user, if a SCSI disk is passed through to a virtual machine) due to an out-of-memory condition.(CVE-2017-12190) - The assoc_array_insert_into_terminal_node function in lib/assoc_array.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.11 mishandles node splitting, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and panic) via a crafted application, as demonstrated by the keyring key type, and key addition and link creation operations.(CVE-2017-12193) - The ip6_find_1stfragopt function in net/ipv6/output_core.c in the Linux kernel through 4.12.3 allows local users to cause a denial of service (integer overflow and infinite loop) by leveraging the ability to open a raw socket.(CVE-2017-7542) - The bnep_add_connection function in net/bluetooth/bnep/core.c in the Linux kernel before 3.19 does not ensure that an l2cap socket is available, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted application.(CVE-2017-15868) - The dccp_disconnect function in net/dccp/proto.c in the Linux kernel through 4.14.3 allows 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.(CVE-2017-8824) - net/netfilter/nfnetlink_cthelper.c in the Linux kernel through 4.14.4 does not require the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for new, get, and del operations, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions because the nfnl_cthelper_list data structure is shared across all net namespaces.(CVE-2017-17448) - The __netlink_deliver_tap_skb function in net/netlink/af_netlink.c in the Linux kernel through 4.14.4, when CONFIG_NLMON is enabled, does not restrict observations of Netlink messages to a single net namespace, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability to sniff an nlmon interface for all Netlink activity on the system.(CVE-2017-17449) - net/netfilter/xt_osf.c in the Linux kernel through 4.14.4 does not require the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for add_callback and remove_callback operations, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions because the xt_osf_fingers data structure is shared across all net namespaces.(CVE-2017-17450) - The usb_destroy_configuration function in drivers/usb/core/config.c in the USB core subsystem in the Linux kernel through 4.14.5 does not consider the maximum number of configurations and interfaces before attempting to release resources, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write access) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device.(CVE-2017-17558) - The Salsa20 encryption algorithm in the Linux kernel before 4.14.8 does 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.(CVE-2017-17805) - The HMAC implementation (crypto/hmac.c) in the Linux kernel before 4.14.8 does 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 buffer overflow by executing a crafted sequence of system calls that encounter a missing SHA-3 initialization.(CVE-2017-17806) - he KEYS subsystem in the Linux kernel before 4.14.6 omitted an access-control check when adding a key to the current task

    "According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the
    EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following
    vulnerabilities :
    
      - The XFRM dump policy implementation in
        net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.11
        allows 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.(CVE-2017-16939)
    
      - The bio_map_user_iov and bio_unmap_user functions in
        block/bio.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.8 do
        unbalanced refcounting when a SCSI I/O vector has small
        consecutive buffers belonging to the same page. The
        bio_add_pc_page function merges them into one, but the
        page reference is never dropped. This causes a memory
        leak and possible system lockup (exploitable against
        the host OS by a guest OS user, if a SCSI disk is
        passed through to a virtual machine) due to an
        out-of-memory condition.(CVE-2017-12190)
    
      - The assoc_array_insert_into_terminal_node function in
        lib/assoc_array.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.11
        mishandles node splitting, which allows local users to
        cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and
        panic) via a crafted application, as demonstrated by
        the keyring key type, and key addition and link
        creation operations.(CVE-2017-12193)
    
      - The ip6_find_1stfragopt function in
        net/ipv6/output_core.c in the Linux kernel through
        4.12.3 allows local users to cause a denial of service
        (integer overflow and infinite loop) by leveraging the
        ability to open a raw socket.(CVE-2017-7542)
    
      - The bnep_add_connection function in
        net/bluetooth/bnep/core.c in the Linux kernel before
        3.19 does not ensure that an l2cap socket is available,
        which allows local users to gain privileges via a
        crafted application.(CVE-2017-15868)
    
      - The dccp_disconnect function in net/dccp/proto.c in the
        Linux kernel through 4.14.3 allows 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.(CVE-2017-8824)
    
      - net/netfilter/nfnetlink_cthelper.c in the Linux kernel
        through 4.14.4 does not require the CAP_NET_ADMIN
        capability for new, get, and del operations, which
        allows local users to bypass intended access
        restrictions because the nfnl_cthelper_list data
        structure is shared across all net
        namespaces.(CVE-2017-17448)
    
      - The __netlink_deliver_tap_skb function in
        net/netlink/af_netlink.c in the Linux kernel through
        4.14.4, when CONFIG_NLMON is enabled, does not restrict
        observations of Netlink messages to a single net
        namespace, which allows local users to obtain sensitive
        information by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability
        to sniff an nlmon interface for all Netlink activity on
        the system.(CVE-2017-17449)
    
      - net/netfilter/xt_osf.c in the Linux kernel through
        4.14.4 does not require the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability
        for add_callback and remove_callback operations, which
        allows local users to bypass intended access
        restrictions because the xt_osf_fingers data structure
        is shared across all net namespaces.(CVE-2017-17450)
    
      - The usb_destroy_configuration function in
        drivers/usb/core/config.c in the USB core subsystem in
        the Linux kernel through 4.14.5 does not consider the
        maximum number of configurations and interfaces before
        attempting to release resources, which allows local
        users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write
        access) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a
        crafted USB device.(CVE-2017-17558)
    
      - The Salsa20 encryption algorithm in the Linux kernel
        before 4.14.8 does 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.(CVE-2017-17805)
    
      - The HMAC implementation (crypto/hmac.c) in the Linux
        kernel before 4.14.8 does 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 buffer overflow by executing a crafted
        sequence of system calls that encounter a missing SHA-3
        initialization.(CVE-2017-17806)
    
      - he KEYS subsystem in the Linux kernel before 4.14.6
        omitted an access-control check when adding a key to
        the current task's 'default request-key keyring' via
        the request_key() system call, allowing a local user to
        use a sequence of crafted system calls to add keys to a
        keyring with only Search permission (not Write
        permission) to that keyring, related to
        construct_get_dest_keyring() in
        security/keys/request_key.c.(CVE-2017-17807)
    
      - The Linux Kernel 2.6.32 and later are affected by a
        denial of service, by flooding the diagnostic port 0x80
        an exception can be triggered leading to a kernel
        panic.(CVE-2017-1000407)

    "An update for kernel-rt is now available for Red Hat Enterprise MRG 2.
    
    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-rt packages provide the Real Time Linux Kernel, which
    enables fine-tuning for systems with extremely high determinism
    requirements.
    
    Security Fix(es) :
    
    * Out-of-bounds kernel heap access vulnerability was found in xfrm,
    kernel's IP framework for transforming packets. An error dealing with
    netlink messages from an unprivileged user leads to arbitrary
    read/write and privilege escalation. (CVE-2017-7184, Important)
    
    * A race condition issue leading to a use-after-free flaw was found in
    the way the raw packet sockets are implemented in the Linux kernel
    networking subsystem handling synchronization. A local user able to
    open a raw packet socket (requires the CAP_NET_RAW capability) could
    use this flaw to elevate their privileges on the system.
    (CVE-2017-1000111, Important)
    
    * An exploitable memory corruption flaw was found in the Linux kernel.
    The append path can be erroneously switched from UFO to non-UFO in
    ip_ufo_append_data() when building an UFO packet with MSG_MORE option.
    If unprivileged user namespaces are available, this flaw can be
    exploited to gain root privileges. (CVE-2017-1000112, Important)
    
    * 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-2017-7541, Moderate)
    
    * An integer overflow vulnerability in ip6_find_1stfragopt() function
    was found. A local attacker that has privileges (of CAP_NET_RAW) to
    open raw socket can cause an infinite loop inside the
    ip6_find_1stfragopt() function. (CVE-2017-7542, Moderate)
    
    * A kernel data leak due to an out-of-bound read was found in the
    Linux kernel in inet_diag_msg_sctp{,l}addr_fill() and
    sctp_get_sctp_info() functions present since version 4.7-rc1 through
    version 4.13. A data leak happens when these functions fill in
    sockaddr data structures used to export socket's diagnostic
    information. As a result, up to 100 bytes of the slab data could be
    leaked to a userspace. (CVE-2017-7558, Moderate)
    
    * The mq_notify function in the Linux kernel through 4.11.9 does not
    set the sock pointer to NULL upon entry into the retry logic. During a
    user-space close of a Netlink socket, it allows attackers to possibly
    cause a situation where a value may be used after being freed
    (use-after-free) which may lead to memory corruption or other
    unspecified other impact. (CVE-2017-11176, Moderate)
    
    * A divide-by-zero vulnerability was found in the __tcp_select_window
    function in the Linux kernel. This can result in a kernel panic
    causing a local denial of service. (CVE-2017-14106, Moderate)
    
    * A flaw was found where the XFS filesystem code mishandles a
    user-settable inode flag in the Linux kernel prior to 4.14-rc1. This
    can cause a local denial of service via a kernel panic.
    (CVE-2017-14340, Moderate)
    
    Red Hat would like to thank Chaitin Security Research Lab for
    reporting CVE-2017-7184; Willem de Bruijn for reporting
    CVE-2017-1000111; and Andrey Konovalov for reporting CVE-2017-1000112.
    The CVE-2017-7558 issue was discovered by Stefano Brivio (Red Hat) and
    the CVE-2017-14340 issue was discovered by Dave Chinner (Red Hat).
    
    Bug Fix(es) :
    
    * kernel-rt packages have been upgraded to the 3.10.0-693.5.2 source
    tree, which provides number of bug fixes over the previous version.

    descriptionAn update for kernel is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. 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 integer overflow vulnerability in ip6_find_1stfragopt() function was found. A local attacker that has privileges (of CAP_NET_RAW) to open raw socket can cause an infinite loop inside the ip6_find_1stfragopt() function. (CVE-2017-7542, Moderate) * The IPv6 fragmentation implementation in the Linux kernel does not consider that the nexthdr field may be associated with an invalid option, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and BUG) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted socket and send system calls. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2017-9074, Moderate) * A use-after-free flaw was found in the Netlink functionality of the Linux kernel networking subsystem. Due to the insufficient cleanup in the mq_notify function, a local attacker could potentially use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2017-11176, Moderate) Bug Fix(es) : * Previously, the default timeout and retry settings in the VMBus driver were insufficient in some cases, for example when a Hyper-V host was under a significant load. Consequently, in Windows Server 2016, Hyper-V Server 2016, and Windows Azure Platform, when running a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Guest on the Hyper-V hypervisor, the guest failed to boot or booted with certain Hyper-V devices missing. This update alters the timeout and retry settings in VMBus, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux guests now boot as expected under the described conditions. (BZ#1506145) * Previously, an incorrect external declaration in the be2iscsi driver caused a kernel panic when using the systool utility. With this update, the external declaration in be2iscsi has been fixed, and the kernel no longer panics when using systool. (BZ#1507512) * Under high usage of the NFSD file system and memory pressure, if many tasks in the Linux kernel attempted to obtain the global spinlock to clean the Duplicate Reply Cache (DRC), these tasks stayed in an active wait in the nfsd_reply_cache_shrink() function for up to 99% of time. Consequently, a high load average occurred. This update fixes the bug by separating the DRC in several parts, each with an independent spinlock. As a result, the load and CPU utilization is no longer excessive under the described circumstances. (BZ#1509876) * When attempting to attach multiple SCSI devices simultaneously, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.9 on IBM z Systems sometimes became unresponsive. This update fixes the zfcp device driver, and attaching multiple SCSI devices simultaneously now works as expected in the described scenario. (BZ# 1512425) * On IBM z Systems, the tiqdio_call_inq_handlers() function in the Linux kernel incorrectly cleared the device state change indicator (DSCI) for the af_iucv devices using the HiperSockets transport with multiple input queues. Consequently, queue stalls on such devices occasionally occurred. With this update, tiqdio_call_inq_handlers() has been fixed to clear the DSCI only once, prior to scanning the queues. As a result, queue stalls for af_iucv devices using the HiperSockets transport no longer occur under the described circumstances. (BZ#1513314) * Previously, small data chunks caused the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) to account the receiver_window (rwnd) values incorrectly when recovering from a

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

    descriptionThe openSUSE Leap 42.2 kernel was updated to 4.4.79 to receive various security and bugfixes. The following security bugs were fixed : - CVE-2017-7542: The ip6_find_1stfragopt function in net/ipv6/output_core.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service (integer overflow and infinite loop) by leveraging the ability to open a raw socket (bnc#1049882). - CVE-2017-11473: Buffer overflow in the mp_override_legacy_irq() function in arch/x86/kernel/acpi/boot.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to gain privileges via a crafted ACPI table (bnc#1049603). - CVE-2017-7533: A bug in inotify code allowed local users to escalate privilege (bnc#1049483). - CVE-2017-7541: The brcmf_cfg80211_mgmt_tx function in drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/cfg8021 1.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow and system crash) or possibly gain privileges via a crafted NL80211_CMD_FRAME Netlink packet (bnc#1049645). - CVE-2017-10810: Memory leak in the virtio_gpu_object_create function in drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_object.c in the Linux kernel allowed attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering object-initialization failures (bnc#1047277).

    descriptionAccording to the versions of the parallels-server-bm-release / vzkernel / etc packages installed, the Virtuozzo installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities : - An integer overflow vulnerability in ip6_find_1stfragopt() function was found. A local attacker that has privileges (of CAP_NET_RAW) to open raw socket can cause an infinite loop inside the ip6_find_1stfragopt() function. - Race condition in fs/timerfd.c in the Linux kernel before 4.10.15 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (list corruption or use-after-free) via simultaneous file-descriptor operations that leverage improper might_cancel queueing. - A race condition issue leading to a use-after-free flaw was found in the way the raw packet sockets are implemented in the Linux kernel networking subsystem handling synchronization. A local user able to open a raw packet socket (requires the CAP_NET_RAW capability) could use this flaw to elevate their privileges on the system. - Andrey Konovalov discovered a race condition in the UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) code in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. - 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 we believe it is unlikely. - The mq_notify function in the Linux kernel through 4.11.9 does not set the sock pointer to NULL upon entry into the retry logic. During a user-space close of a Netlink socket, it allows attackers to possibly cause a situation where a value may be used after being freed (use after free) which may lead to memory corruption or other unspecified other impact. - The tcp_disconnect function in net/ipv4/tcp.c in the Linux kernel before 4.12 allows 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. 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.

    NASL idORACLELINUX_ELSA-2018-0169.NASL
    descriptionFrom Red Hat Security Advisory 2018:0169 : An update for kernel is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. 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 integer overflow vulnerability in ip6_find_1stfragopt() function was found. A local attacker that has privileges (of CAP_NET_RAW) to open raw socket can cause an infinite loop inside the ip6_find_1stfragopt() function. (CVE-2017-7542, Moderate) * The IPv6 fragmentation implementation in the Linux kernel does not consider that the nexthdr field may be associated with an invalid option, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and BUG) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted socket and send system calls. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2017-9074, Moderate) * A use-after-free flaw was found in the Netlink functionality of the Linux kernel networking subsystem. Due to the insufficient cleanup in the mq_notify function, a local attacker could potentially use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2017-11176, Moderate) Bug Fix(es) : * Previously, the default timeout and retry settings in the VMBus driver were insufficient in some cases, for example when a Hyper-V host was under a significant load. Consequently, in Windows Server 2016, Hyper-V Server 2016, and Windows Azure Platform, when running a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Guest on the Hyper-V hypervisor, the guest failed to boot or booted with certain Hyper-V devices missing. This update alters the timeout and retry settings in VMBus, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux guests now boot as expected under the described conditions. (BZ#1506145) * Previously, an incorrect external declaration in the be2iscsi driver caused a kernel panic when using the systool utility. With this update, the external declaration in be2iscsi has been fixed, and the kernel no longer panics when using systool. (BZ#1507512) * Under high usage of the NFSD file system and memory pressure, if many tasks in the Linux kernel attempted to obtain the global spinlock to clean the Duplicate Reply Cache (DRC), these tasks stayed in an active wait in the nfsd_reply_cache_shrink() function for up to 99% of time. Consequently, a high load average occurred. This update fixes the bug by separating the DRC in several parts, each with an independent spinlock. As a result, the load and CPU utilization is no longer excessive under the described circumstances. (BZ#1509876) * When attempting to attach multiple SCSI devices simultaneously, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.9 on IBM z Systems sometimes became unresponsive. This update fixes the zfcp device driver, and attaching multiple SCSI devices simultaneously now works as expected in the described scenario. (BZ# 1512425) * On IBM z Systems, the tiqdio_call_inq_handlers() function in the Linux kernel incorrectly cleared the device state change indicator (DSCI) for the af_iucv devices using the HiperSockets transport with multiple input queues. Consequently, queue stalls on such devices occasionally occurred. With this update, tiqdio_call_inq_handlers() has been fixed to clear the DSCI only once, prior to scanning the queues. As a result, queue stalls for af_iucv devices using the HiperSockets transport no longer occur under the described circumstances. (BZ#1513314) * Previously, small data chunks caused the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) to account the receiver_window (rwnd) values incorrectly when recovering from a 'zero-window situation'. As a consequence, window updates were not sent to the peer, and an artificial growth of rwnd could lead to packet drops. This update properly accounts such small data chunks and ignores the rwnd pressure values when reopening a window. As a result, window updates are now sent, and the announced rwnd reflects better the real state of the receive buffer. (BZ#1514443) This plugin has been deprecated because Oracle has changed their mind and decided that ELSA-2018-0169 does not fix any security problems.

(CVE-2013-6376) - The lbs_debugfs_write function in drivers/net/wireless/libertas/debugfs.c in the Linux kernel through 3.12.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) by leveraging root privileges for a zero-length write operation. (CVE-2013-6378) - The aac_send_raw_srb function in drivers/scsi/aacraid/commctrl.c in the Linux kernel through 3.12.1 does not properly validate a certain size value, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (invalid pointer dereference) or possibly have unspecified other impact via an FSACTL_SEND_RAW_SRB ioctl call that triggers a crafted SRB command. (CVE-2013-6380) - Multiple buffer underflows in the XFS implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.12.1 allow local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability for a (1) XFS_IOC_ATTRLIST_BY_HANDLE or (2) XFS_IOC_ATTRLIST_BY_HANDLE_32 ioctl call with a crafted length value, related to the xfs_attrlist_by_handle function in fs/xfs/xfs_ioctl.c and the xfs_compat_attrlist_by_handle function in fs/xfs/xfs_ioctl32.c. (CVE-2013-6382) - Multiple race conditions in ipc/shm.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12.2 allow local users to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted application that uses shmctl IPC_RMID operations in conjunction with other shm system calls. (CVE-2013-7026) - The mISDN_sock_recvmsg function in drivers/isdn/mISDN/socket.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12.4 does not ensure that a certain length value is consistent with the size of an associated data structure, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a (1) recvfrom, (2) recvmmsg, or (3) recvmsg system call. (CVE-2013-7266) - The atalk_recvmsg function in net/appletalk/ddp.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12.4 updates a certain length value without ensuring that an associated data structure has been initialized, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a (1) recvfrom, (2) recvmmsg, or (3) recvmsg system call. (CVE-2013-7267) - The ipx_recvmsg function in net/ipx/af_ipx.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12.4 updates a certain length value without ensuring that an associated data structure has been initialized, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a (1) recvfrom, (2) recvmmsg, or (3) recvmsg system call. (CVE-2013-7268) - The nr_recvmsg function in net/netrom/af_netrom.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12.4 updates a certain length value without ensuring that an associated data structure has been initialized, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a (1) recvfrom, (2) recvmmsg, or (3) recvmsg system call. (CVE-2013-7269) - The packet_recvmsg function in net/packet/af_packet.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12.4 updates a certain length value before ensuring that an associated data structure has been initialized, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a (1) recvfrom, (2) recvmmsg, or (3) recvmsg system call. (CVE-2013-7270) - The x25_recvmsg function in net/x25/af_x25.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12.4 updates a certain length value without ensuring that an associated data structure has been initialized, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a (1) recvfrom, (2) recvmmsg, or (3) recvmsg system call. (CVE-2013-7271) - Buffer overflow in the complete_emulated_mmio function in arch/x86/kvm/x86.c in the Linux kernel before 3.13.6 allows guest OS users to execute arbitrary code on the host OS by leveraging a loop that triggers an invalid memory copy affecting certain cancel_work_item data. (CVE-2014-0049) - The get_rx_bufs function in drivers/vhost/net.c in the vhost-net subsystem in the Linux kernel package before 2.6.32-431.11.2 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 6 does not properly handle vhost_get_vq_desc errors, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS crash) via unspecified vectors. (CVE-2014-0055) - The cifs_iovec_write function in fs/cifs/file.c in the Linux kernel through 3.13.5 does not properly handle uncached write operations that copy fewer than the requested number of bytes, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory, cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash), or possibly gain privileges via a writev system call with a crafted pointer. (CVE-2014-0069) - drivers/vhost/net.c in the Linux kernel before 3.13.10, when mergeable buffers are disabled, does not properly validate packet lengths, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and host OS crash) or possibly gain privileges on the host OS via crafted packets, related to the handle_rx and get_rx_bufs functions. (CVE-2014-0077) - Race condition in the inet_frag_intern function in net/ipv4/inet_fragment.c in the Linux kernel through 3.13.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free error) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a large series of fragmented ICMP Echo Request packets to a system with a heavy CPU load. (CVE-2014-0100) - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel processed an authenticated COOKIE_ECHO chunk during the initialization of an SCTP connection. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash the system by initiating a specially crafted SCTP handshake in order to trigger a NULL pointer dereference on the system. (CVE-2014-0101) - The keyring_detect_cycle_iterator function in security/keys/keyring.c in the Linux kernel through 3.13.6 does not properly determine whether keyrings are identical, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) via crafted keyctl commands. (CVE-2014-0102) - Use-after-free vulnerability in the skb_segment function in net/core/skbuff.c in the Linux kernel through 3.13.6 allows attackers to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by leveraging the absence of a certain orphaning operation. (CVE-2014-0131) - The ioapic_deliver function in virt/kvm/ioapic.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.1 does not properly validate the kvm_irq_delivery_to_apic return value, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS crash) via a crafted entry in the redirection table of an I/O APIC. NOTE: the affected code was moved to the ioapic_service function before the vulnerability was announced. (CVE-2014-0155) - The restore_fpu_checking function in arch/x86/include/asm/fpu-internal.h in the Linux kernel before 3.12.8 on the AMD K7 and K8 platforms does not clear pending exceptions before proceeding to an EMMS instruction, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (task kill) or possibly gain privileges via a crafted application. (CVE-2014-1438) - The help function in net/netfilter/nf_nat_irc.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12.8 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by establishing an IRC DCC session in which incorrect packet data is transmitted during use of the NAT mangle feature. (CVE-2014-1690) - The ip6_route_add function in net/ipv6/route.c in the Linux kernel through 3.13.6 does not properly count the addition of routes, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a flood of ICMPv6 Router Advertisement packets.
