Vulnerable Configurations
Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)
Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)
- Buffer Overflow via Environment Variables This attack pattern involves causing a buffer overflow through manipulation of environment variables. Once the attacker finds that they can modify an environment variable, they may try to overflow associated buffers. This attack leverages implicit trust often placed in environment variables.
- Server Side Include (SSI) Injection An attacker can use Server Side Include (SSI) Injection to send code to a web application that then gets executed by the web server. Doing so enables the attacker to achieve similar results to Cross Site Scripting, viz., arbitrary code execution and information disclosure, albeit on a more limited scale, since the SSI directives are nowhere near as powerful as a full-fledged scripting language. Nonetheless, the attacker can conveniently gain access to sensitive files, such as password files, and execute shell commands.
- Cross Zone Scripting An attacker is able to cause a victim to load content into their web-browser that bypasses security zone controls and gain access to increased privileges to execute scripting code or other web objects such as unsigned ActiveX controls or applets. This is a privilege elevation attack targeted at zone-based web-browser security. In a zone-based model, pages belong to one of a set of zones corresponding to the level of privilege assigned to that page. Pages in an untrusted zone would have a lesser level of access to the system and/or be restricted in the types of executable content it was allowed to invoke. In a cross-zone scripting attack, a page that should be assigned to a less privileged zone is granted the privileges of a more trusted zone. This can be accomplished by exploiting bugs in the browser, exploiting incorrect configuration in the zone controls, through a cross-site scripting attack that causes the attackers' content to be treated as coming from a more trusted page, or by leveraging some piece of system functionality that is accessible from both the trusted and less trusted zone. This attack differs from "Restful Privilege Escalation" in that the latter correlates to the inadequate securing of RESTful access methods (such as HTTP DELETE) on the server, while cross-zone scripting attacks the concept of security zones as implemented by a browser.
- Cross Site Scripting through Log Files An attacker may leverage a system weakness where logs are susceptible to log injection to insert scripts into the system's logs. If these logs are later viewed by an administrator through a thin administrative interface and the log data is not properly HTML encoded before being written to the page, the attackers' scripts stored in the log will be executed in the administrative interface with potentially serious consequences. This attack pattern is really a combination of two other attack patterns: log injection and stored cross site scripting.
- Command Line Execution through SQL Injection An attacker uses standard SQL injection methods to inject data into the command line for execution. This could be done directly through misuse of directives such as MSSQL_xp_cmdshell or indirectly through injection of data into the database that would be interpreted as shell commands. Sometime later, an unscrupulous backend application (or could be part of the functionality of the same application) fetches the injected data stored in the database and uses this data as command line arguments without performing proper validation. The malicious data escapes that data plane by spawning new commands to be executed on the host.

CVE-2017-7487 Li Qiang reported a reference counter leak in the ipxitf_ioctl function which may result into a use-after-free vulnerability, triggerable when a IPX interface is configured. CVE-2017-7645 Tuomas Haanpaa and Matti Kamunen from Synopsys Ltd discovered that the NFSv2 and NFSv3 server implementations are vulnerable to an out-of-bounds memory access issue while processing arbitrarily long arguments sent by NFSv2/NFSv3 PRC clients, leading to a denial of service. CVE-2017-7895 Ari Kauppi from Synopsys Ltd discovered that the NFSv2 and NFSv3 server implementations do not properly handle payload bounds checking of WRITE requests. A remote attacker with write access to a NFS mount can take advantage of this flaw to read chunks of arbitrary memory from both kernel-space and user-space. CVE-2017-8890 It was discovered that the net_csk_clone_lock() function allows a remote attacker to cause a double free leading to a denial of service or potentially have other impact. CVE-2017-8924 Johan Hovold found that the io_ti USB serial driver could leak sensitive information if a malicious USB device was connected. CVE-2017-8925 Johan Hovold found a reference counter leak in the omninet USB serial driver, resulting in a use-after-free vulnerability. This can be triggered by a local user permitted to open tty devices. CVE-2017-9074 Andrey Konovalov reported that the IPv6 fragmentation implementation could read beyond the end of a packet buffer. A local user or guest VM might be able to use this to leak sensitive information or to cause a denial of service (crash). CVE-2017-9075 Andrey Konovalov reported that the SCTP/IPv6 implementation wrongly initialised address lists on connected sockets, resulting in a use-after-free vulnerability, a similar issue to CVE-2017-8890. This can be triggered by any local user. CVE-2017-9076 / CVE-2017-9077 Cong Wang found that the TCP/IPv6 and DCCP/IPv6 implementations wrongly initialised address lists on connected sockets, a similar issue to CVE-2017-9075. CVE-2017-9242 Andrey Konovalov reported a packet buffer overrun in the IPv6 implementation. A local user could use this for denial of service (memory corruption; crash) and possibly for privilege escalation. CVE-2017-1000364 The Qualys Research Labs discovered that the size of the stack guard page is not sufficiently large. The stack-pointer can jump over the guard-page and moving from the stack into another memory region without accessing the guard-page. In this case no page-fault exception is raised and the stack extends into the other memory region. An attacker can exploit this flaw for privilege escalation. The default stack gap protection is set to 256 pages and can be configured via the stack_guard_gap kernel parameter on the kernel command line.

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) : * A flaw was found in the way memory was being allocated on the stack for user space binaries. If heap (or different memory region) and stack memory regions were adjacent to each other, an attacker could use this flaw to jump over the stack guard gap, cause controlled memory corruption on process stack or the adjacent memory region, and thus increase their privileges on the system. This is a kernel-side mitigation which increases the stack guard gap size from one page to 1 MiB to make successful exploitation of this issue more difficult. (CVE-2017-1000364, Important) * The NFS2/3 RPC client could send long arguments to the NFS server. These encoded arguments are stored in an array of memory pages, and accessed using pointer variables. Arbitrarily long arguments could make these pointers point outside the array and cause an out-of-bounds memory access. A remote user or program could use this flaw to crash the kernel, resulting in denial of service. (CVE-2017-7645, Important) * The NFSv2 and NFSv3 server implementations in the Linux kernel through 4.10.13 lacked certain checks for the end of a buffer. A remote attacker could trigger a pointer-arithmetic error or possibly cause other unspecified impacts using crafted requests related to fs/nfsd/nfs3xdr.c and fs/nfsd/nfsxdr.c.

These encoded arguments are stored in an array of memory pages, and accessed via various pointer variables. Arbitrarily long arguments could make these pointers point outside the array, thus causing out-of-bounds memory access. A remote user/program could use this flaw to crash the kernel resulting in DoS. - The NFSv2 and NFSv3 server implementations in the Linux kernel through 4.10.13 lack certain checks for the end of a buffer. A remote attacker could trigger a pointer-arithmetic error or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted requests related to fs/nfsd/nfs3xdr.c and fs/nfsd/nfsxdr.c. - The tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock function in net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c in the Linux kernel mishandles inheritance, which allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted system calls, a related issue to CVE-2017-8890. 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 IPv6 DCCP implementation in the Linux kernel mishandles inheritance, which allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted system calls, a related issue to CVE-2017-8890. 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 sctp_v6_create_accept_sk function in net/sctp/ipv6.c in the Linux kernel mishandles inheritance, which allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted system calls, a related issue to CVE-2017-8890. 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 IPv6 fragmentation implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.11.1 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. - The inet_csk_clone_lock function in net/ipv4/inet_connection_sock.c in the Linux kernel allows attackers to cause a denial of service (double free) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging use of the accept system call. 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. - A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel. An unprivileged local user could trigger oops in shash_async_export() by attempting to force the in-kernel hashing algorithms into decrypting an empty data set. - If the sctp module was loaded on the host, a privileged user inside a container could cause a kernel crash by triggering a NULL pointer dererefence in the sctp_endpoint_destroy() function with a specially crafted sequence of system calls. - A privileged user inside a container could cause a kernel crash by triggering a BUG_ON in the unregister_netdevice_many() function with a specially crafted sequence of system calls.

If heap (or different memory region) and stack memory regions were adjacent to each other, an attacker could use this flaw to jump over the stack guard gap, cause controlled memory corruption on process stack or the adjacent memory region, and thus increase their privileges on the system. This is a kernel-side mitigation which increases the stack guard gap size from one page to 1 MiB to make successful exploitation of this issue more difficult. (CVE-2017-1000364) - A flaw was found in the way memory was being allocated on the stack for user space binaries. If heap (or different memory region) and stack memory regions were adjacent to each other, an attacker could use this flaw to jump over the stack guard gap, cause controlled memory corruption on process stack or the adjacent memory region, and thus increase their privileges on the system. This is glibc-side mitigation which blocks processing of LD_LIBRARY_PATH for programs running in secure-execution mode and reduces the number of allocations performed by the processing of LD_AUDIT, LD_PRELOAD, and LD_HWCAP_MASK, making successful exploitation of this issue more difficult. (CVE-2017-1000366) - A race condition flaw was found in the N_HLDC Linux kernel driver when accessing n_hdlc.tbuf list that can lead to double free. A local, unprivileged user able to set the HDLC line discipline on the tty device could use this flaw to increase their privileges on the system. (CVE-2017-2636) - The NFS2/3 RPC client could send long arguments to the NFS server. These encoded arguments are stored in an array of memory pages, and accessed using pointer variables. Arbitrarily long arguments could make these pointers point outside the array and cause an out-of- bounds memory access. A remote user or program could use this flaw to crash the kernel, resulting in denial of service. (CVE-2017-7645) - The NFSv2 and NFSv3 server implementations in the Linux kernel through 4.10.13 lacked certain checks for the end of a buffer. A remote attacker could trigger a pointer- arithmetic error or possibly cause other unspecified impacts using crafted requests related to fs/nfsd/nfs3xdr.c and fs/nfsd/nfsxdr.c.

A remote attacker with write access to a NFS mount can take advantage of this flaw to read chunks of arbitrary memory from both kernel-space and user-space. - CVE-2017-8064 Arnd Bergmann found that the DVB-USB core misused the device logging system, resulting in a use-after-free vulnerability, with unknown security impact. - CVE-2017-8890 It was discovered that the net_csk_clone_lock() function allows a remote attacker to cause a double free leading to a denial of service or potentially have other impact. - CVE-2017-8924 Johan Hovold found that the io_ti USB serial driver could leak sensitive information if a malicious USB device was connected. - CVE-2017-8925 Johan Hovold found a reference counter leak in the omninet USB serial driver, resulting in a use-after-free vulnerability. This can be triggered by a local user permitted to open tty devices. - CVE-2017-9074 Andrey Konovalov reported that the IPv6 fragmentation implementation could read beyond the end of a packet buffer. A local user or guest VM might be able to use this to leak sensitive information or to cause a denial of service (crash). - CVE-2017-9075 Andrey Konovalov reported that the SCTP/IPv6 implementation wrongly initialised address lists on connected sockets, resulting in a use-after-free vulnerability, a similar issue to CVE-2017-8890. This can be triggered by any local user. - CVE-2017-9076 / CVE-2017-9077 Cong Wang found that the TCP/IPv6 and DCCP/IPv6 implementations wrongly initialised address lists on connected sockets, a similar issue to CVE-2017-9075. - CVE-2017-9242 Andrey Konovalov reported a packet buffer overrun in the IPv6 implementation. A local user could use this for denial of service (memory corruption; crash) and possibly for privilege escalation. - CVE-2017-1000364 The Qualys Research Labs discovered that the size of the stack guard page is not sufficiently large. The stack-pointer can jump over the guard-page and moving from the stack into another memory region without accessing the guard-page. In this case no page-fault exception is raised and the stack extends into the other memory region. An attacker can exploit this flaw for privilege escalation. The default stack gap protection is set to 256 pages and can be configured via the stack_guard_gap kernel parameter on the kernel command line.

These encoded arguments are stored in an array of memory pages, and accessed via various pointer variables. Arbitrarily long arguments could make these pointers point outside the array, thus causing out-of-bounds memory access. A remote user/program could use this flaw to crash the kernel resulting in DoS. - The NFSv2 and NFSv3 server implementations in the Linux kernel through 4.10.13 lack certain checks for the end of a buffer. A remote attacker could trigger a pointer-arithmetic error or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted requests related to fs/nfsd/nfs3xdr.c and fs/nfsd/nfsxdr.c. - If sctp module is loaded on the host, a privileged user inside a container can cause a kernel crash by triggering a NULL pointer dererefence in sctp_endpoint_destroy() function with a specially crafted sequence of system calls. - A privileged user inside a container can cause a kernel crash by triggering a BUG_ON in unregister_netdevice_many() function with a specially crafted sequence of system calls.
