Summary

In all Qualcomm products with Android releases from CAF using the Linux kernel, during DMA allocation, due to wrong data type of size, allocation size gets truncated which makes allocation succeed when it should fail.

Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Attack through Shared Data
    An attacker exploits a data structure shared between multiple applications or an application pool to affect application behavior. Data may be shared between multiple applications or between multiple threads of a single application. Data sharing is usually accomplished through mutual access to a single memory location. If an attacker can manipulate this shared data (usually by co-opting one of the applications or threads) the other applications or threads using the shared data will often continue to trust the validity of the compromised shared data and use it in their calculations. This can result in invalid trust assumptions, corruption of additional data through the normal operations of the other users of the shared data, or even cause a crash or compromise of the sharing applications.
  • Integer Attacks
    An attacker takes advantage of the structure of integer variables to cause these variables to assume values that are not expected by an application. For example, adding one to the largest positive integer in a signed integer variable results in a negative number. Negative numbers may be illegal in an application and the application may prevent an attacker from providing them directly, but the application may not consider that adding two positive numbers can create a negative number do to the structure of integer storage formats.
  • Pointer Attack
    This attack involves an attacker manipulating a pointer within a target application resulting in the application accessing an unintended memory location. This can result in the crashing of the application or, for certain pointer values, access to data that would not normally be possible or the execution of arbitrary code. Since pointers are simply integer variables, Integer Attacks may often be used in Pointer Attacks.

    descriptionThe remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04, has kernel packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities: - Integer overflow in the aio_setup_single_vector function in fs/aio.c in the Linux kernel 4.0 allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via a large AIO iovec. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of a CVE-2012-6701 regression. (CVE-2015-8830) - A weakness was found in the Linux ASLR implementation. Any user able to running 32-bit applications in a x86 machine can disable ASLR by setting the RLIMIT_STACK resource to unlimited. (CVE-2016-3672) - The xc2028_set_config function in drivers/media/tuners/tuner-xc2028.c in the Linux kernel before 4.6 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via vectors involving omission of the firmware name from a certain data structure. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2016-7913) - Use-after-free vulnerability in the snd_pcm_info() function in the ALSA subsystem in the Linux kernel allows attackers to induce a kernel memory corruption and possibly crash or lock up a system. Due to the nature of the flaw, a privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2017-0861) - A reachable assertion failure flaw was found in the Linux kernel built with KVM virtualisation(CONFIG_KVM) support with Virtual Function I/O feature (CONFIG_VFIO) enabled. This failure could occur if a malicious guest device sent a virtual interrupt (guest IRQ) with a larger (>1024) index value. (CVE-2017-1000252) - Linux kernel Virtualization Module (CONFIG_KVM) for the Intel processor family (CONFIG_KVM_INTEL) is vulnerable to a DoS issue. It could occur if a guest was to flood the I/O port 0x80 with write requests. A guest user could use this flaw to crash the host kernel resulting in DoS. (CVE-2017-1000407) - A flaw was found in the processing of incoming L2CAP bluetooth commands. Uninitialized stack variables can be sent to an attacker leaking data in kernel address space. (CVE-2017-1000410) - A race condition was found in the Linux kernel before version 4.11-rc1 in

        drivers/media/tuners/tuner-xc2028.c in the Linux kernel
        before 4.6 allows local users to gain privileges or
        cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via vectors
        involving omission of the firmware name from a certain
        data structure. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege
        escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we
        believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2016-7913)
    
      - Use-after-free vulnerability in the snd_pcm_info()
        function in the ALSA subsystem in the Linux kernel
        allows attackers to induce a kernel memory corruption
        and possibly crash or lock up a system. Due to the
        nature of the flaw, a privilege escalation cannot be
        fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely.
        (CVE-2017-0861)
    
      - A reachable assertion failure flaw was found in the
        Linux kernel built with KVM virtualisation(CONFIG_KVM)
        support with Virtual Function I/O feature (CONFIG_VFIO)
        enabled. This failure could occur if a malicious guest
        device sent a virtual interrupt (guest IRQ) with a
        larger (>1024) index value. (CVE-2017-1000252)
    
      - Linux kernel Virtualization Module (CONFIG_KVM) for the
        Intel processor family (CONFIG_KVM_INTEL) is vulnerable
        to a DoS issue. It could occur if a guest was to flood
        the I/O port 0x80 with write requests. A guest user
        could use this flaw to crash the host kernel resulting
        in DoS. (CVE-2017-1000407)
    
      - A flaw was found in the processing of incoming L2CAP
        bluetooth commands. Uninitialized stack variables can be
        sent to an attacker leaking data in kernel address
        space. (CVE-2017-1000410)
    
      - A race condition was found in the Linux kernel before
        version 4.11-rc1 in 'fs/timerfd.c' file which allows a
        local user to cause a kernel list corruption or use-
        after-free via simultaneous operations with a file
        descriptor which leverage improper 'might_cancel'
        queuing. An unprivileged local user could use this flaw
        to cause a denial of service of the system. Due to the
        nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully
        ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely.
        (CVE-2017-10661)
    
      - Linux kernel built with the KVM visualization support
        (CONFIG_KVM), with nested visualization (nVMX) feature
        enabled (nested=1), is vulnerable to a crash due to
        disabled external interrupts. As L2 guest could access
        (r/w) hardware CR8 register of the host(L0). In a nested
        visualization setup, L2 guest user could use this flaw
        to potentially crash the host(L0) resulting in DoS.
        (CVE-2017-12154)
    
      - It was found that in the Linux kernel through v4.14-rc5,
        bio_map_user_iov() and bio_unmap_user() in 'block/bio.c'
        do unbalanced pages refcounting if IO vector has small
        consecutive buffers belonging to the same page.
        bio_add_pc_page() merges them into one, but the page
        reference is never dropped, causing a memory leak and
        possible system lockup due to out-of-memory condition.
        (CVE-2017-12190)
    
      - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of
        valid_master_desc() in which a memory buffer would be
        compared to a userspace value with an incorrect size of
        comparison. By bruteforcing the comparison, an attacker
        could determine what was in memory after the description
        and possibly obtain sensitive information from kernel
        memory. (CVE-2017-13305)
    
      - A use-after-free vulnerability was found in a network
        namespaces code affecting the Linux kernel since
        v4.0-rc1 through v4.15-rc5. The function
        get_net_ns_by_id() does not check for the net::count
        value after it has found a peer network in netns_ids idr
        which could lead to double free and memory corruption.
        This vulnerability could allow an unprivileged local
        user 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 thought to be unlikely. (CVE-2017-15129)
    
      - A use-after-free vulnerability was found when issuing an
        ioctl to a sound device. This could allow a user to
        exploit a race condition and create memory corruption or
        possibly privilege escalation. (CVE-2017-15265)
    
      - A flaw was found in the implementation of associative
        arrays where the add_key systemcall and KEYCTL_UPDATE
        operations allowed for a NULL payload with a nonzero
        length. When accessing the payload within this length
        parameters value, an unprivileged user could trivially
        cause a NULL pointer dereference (kernel oops).
        (CVE-2017-15274)
    
      - The net/netfilter/nfnetlink_cthelper.c function in the
        Linux kernel through 4.14.4 does not require the
        CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for new, get, and del
        operations. This 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, does not restrict observations of Netlink
        messages to a single net namespace, when CONFIG_NLMON is
        enabled. This 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)
    
      - 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. This allows local users
        to cause a denial of service, due to out-of-bounds write
        access, or possibly have unspecified other impact via a
        crafted USB device. Due to the nature of the flaw,
        privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although
        we believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2017-17558)
    
      - The Salsa20 encryption algorithm in the Linux kernel,
        before 4.14.8, does not correctly handle zero-length
        inputs. This allows a local attacker the ability to use
        the AF_ALG-based skcipher interface to cause a denial of
        service (uninitialized-memory free and kernel crash) or
        have an 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 are
        vulnerable. (CVE-2017-17805)
    
      - The tcpmss_mangle_packet function in
        net/netfilter/xt_TCPMSS.c in the Linux kernel before
        4.11, and 4.9.x before 4.9.36, allows remote attackers
        to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and memory
        corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact by
        leveraging the presence of xt_TCPMSS in an iptables
        action. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege
        escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we
        believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2017-18017)
    
      - The Linux kernel, before version 4.14.3, is vulnerable
        to a denial of service in
        drivers/md/dm.c:dm_get_from_kobject() which can be
        caused by local users leveraging a race condition with
        __dm_destroy() during creation and removal of DM
        devices. Only privileged local users (with CAP_SYS_ADMIN
        capability) can directly perform the ioctl operations
        for dm device creation and removal and this would
        typically be outside the direct control of the
        unprivileged attacker. (CVE-2017-18203)
    
      - The madvise_willneed function in the Linux kernel allows
        local users to cause a denial of service (infinite loop)
        by triggering use of MADVISE_WILLNEED for a DAX mapping.
        (CVE-2017-18208)
    
      - A flaw was found where the kernel truncated the value
        used to indicate the size of a buffer which it would
        later become zero using an untruncated value. This can
        corrupt memory outside of the original allocation.
        (CVE-2017-9725)
    
      - In the Linux kernel versions 4.12, 3.10, 2.6, and
        possibly earlier, a race condition vulnerability exists
        in the sound system allowing for a potential deadlock
        and memory corruption due to use-after-free condition
        and thus denial of service. Due to the nature of the
        flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out,
        although we believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2018-1000004)
    
      - Improper validation in the bnx2x network card driver of
        the Linux kernel version 4.15 can allow for denial of
        service (DoS) attacks via a packet with a gso_size
        larger than ~9700 bytes. Untrusted guest VMs can exploit
        this vulnerability in the host machine, causing a crash
        in the network card. (CVE-2018-1000026)
    
      - By mmap()ing a FUSE-backed file onto a process's memory
        containing command line arguments (or environment
        strings), an attacker can cause utilities from psutils
        or procps (such as ps, w) or any other program which
        makes a read() call to the /proc//cmdline (or
        /proc//environ) files to block indefinitely (denial
        of service) or for some controlled time (as a
        synchronization primitive for other attacks).
        (CVE-2018-1120)
    
      - A null pointer dereference in dccp_write_xmit() function
        in net/dccp/output.c in the Linux kernel allows a local
        user to cause a denial of service by a number of certain
        crafted system calls. (CVE-2018-1130)
    
      - An issue was discovered in the proc_pid_stack function
        in fs/proc/base.c in the Linux kernel. An attacker with
        a local account can trick the stack unwinder code to
        leak stack contents to userspace. The fix allows only
        root to inspect the kernel stack of an arbitrary task.
        (CVE-2018-17972)
    
      - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel with files on tmpfs
        and hugetlbfs. An attacker is able to bypass file
        permissions on filesystems mounted with tmpfs/hugetlbs
        to modify a file and possibly disrupt normal system
        behavior. At this time there is an understanding there
        is no crash or privilege escalation but the impact of
        modifications on these filesystems of files in
        production systems may have adverse affects.
        (CVE-2018-18397)
    
      - In the Linux kernel before 4.17, a local attacker able
        to set attributes on an xfs filesystem could make this
        filesystem non-operational until the next mount by
        triggering an unchecked error condition during an xfs
        attribute change, because xfs_attr_shortform_addname in
        fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_attr.c mishandles ATTR_REPLACE
        operations with conversion of an attr from short to long
        form. (CVE-2018-18690)
    
      - Modern operating systems implement virtualization of
        physical memory to efficiently use available system
        resources and provide inter-domain protection through
        access control and isolation. The L1TF issue was found
        in the way the x86 microprocessor designs have
        implemented speculative execution of instructions (a
        commonly used performance optimization) in combination
        with handling of page-faults caused by terminated
        virtual to physical address resolving process. As a
        result, an unprivileged attacker could use this flaw to
        read privileged memory of the kernel or other processes
        and/or cross guest/host boundaries to read host memory
        by conducting targeted cache side-channel attacks.
        (CVE-2018-3646)
    
      - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's handling of
        loopback devices. An attacker, who has permissions to
        setup loopback disks, may create a denial of service or
        other unspecified actions. (CVE-2018-5344)
    
      - The acpi_smbus_hc_add function in drivers/acpi/sbshc.c
        in the Linux kernel, through 4.14.15, allows local users
        to obtain sensitive address information by reading dmesg
        data from an SBS HC printk call. (CVE-2018-5750)
    
      - An error in the _sctp_make_chunk() function
        (net/sctp/sm_make_chunk.c) when handling SCTP, packet
        length can be exploited by a malicious local user to
        cause a kernel crash and a DoS. (CVE-2018-5803)
    
      - In the function wmi_set_ie() in the Linux kernel the
        length validation code does not handle unsigned integer
        overflow properly. As a result, a large value of the
        ie_len argument can cause a buffer overflow and thus a
        memory corruption leading to a system crash or other or
        unspecified impact. Due to the nature of the flaw,
        privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although
        we believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2018-5848)
    
      - ALSA sequencer core initializes the event pool on demand
        by invoking snd_seq_pool_init() when the first write
        happens and the pool is empty. A user can reset the pool
        size manually via ioctl concurrently, and this may lead
        to UAF or out-of-bound access. (CVE-2018-7566)
    
      - A possible memory corruption due to a type confusion was
        found in the Linux kernel in the sk_clone_lock()
        function in the net/core/sock.c. The possibility of
        local escalation of privileges cannot be fully ruled out
        for a local unprivileged attacker. (CVE-2018-9568)

        corrupt memory outside of the original
        allocation.(CVE-2017-9725)
    
      - 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. Variant CVE-2017-5753 triggers the
        speculative execution by performing a bounds-check
        bypass. 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's
        data cache even for speculatively executed instructions
        that never actually commit (retire). As a result, an
        unprivileged attacker could use this flaw to cross the
        syscall boundary and read privileged memory by
        conducting targeted cache side-channel
        attacks.(CVE-2017-5753)
    
      - A buffer overflow was found in the Linux kernel's
        isdn_net_newslave() function in the
        /drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_net.c file. An overflow happens
        when the user-controlled buffer is copied into a local
        buffer of constant size using strcpy() without a length
        check.(CVE-2017-12762)
    
      - Modern operating systems implement virtualization of
        physical memory to efficiently use available system
        resources and provide inter-domain protection through
        access control and isolation. The L1TF issue was found
        in the way the x86 microprocessor designs have
        implemented speculative execution of instructions (a
        commonly used performance optimization) in combination
        with handling of page-faults caused by terminated
        virtual to physical address resolving process. As a
        result, an unprivileged attacker could use this flaw to
        read privileged memory of the kernel or other processes

      - In hid_debug_events_read of drivers/hid/hid-debug.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

      - Systems with microprocessors utilizing speculative
        execution and speculative execution of memory reads
        before the addresses of all prior memory writes are
        known may allow unauthorized disclosure of information
        to an attacker with local user access via a
        side-channel analysis, aka Speculative Store Bypass
        (SSB), Variant 4.(CVE-2018-3639)
    
      - It was found that the Linux kernel memory resource
        controller's (memcg) handling of OOM (out of memory)
        conditions could lead to deadlocks. An attacker able to
        continuously spawn new processes within a single
        memory-constrained cgroup during an OOM event could use
        this flaw to lock up the system.(CVE-2014-8171)
    
      - In sk_clone_lock of sock.c, there is a possible memory
        corruption due to type confusion. This could lead to

    NASL idEULEROS_SA-2019-1539.NASL
    descriptionAccording to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities : - An industry-wide issue was found in the way many modern microprocessor designs have implemented speculative execution of instructions past bounds check. The flaw relies on the presence of a precisely-defined instruction sequence in the privileged code and the fact that memory writes occur to an address which depends on the untrusted value. Such writes cause an update into the microprocessor

    NASL idNEWSTART_CGSL_NS-SA-2019-0074_KERNEL-RT.NASL
    descriptionThe remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04, has kernel-rt packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities: - Integer overflow in the aio_setup_single_vector function in fs/aio.c in the Linux kernel 4.0 allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via a large AIO iovec. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of a CVE-2012-6701 regression. (CVE-2015-8830) - A weakness was found in the Linux ASLR implementation. Any user able to running 32-bit applications in a x86 machine can disable ASLR by setting the RLIMIT_STACK resource to unlimited. (CVE-2016-3672) - The xc2028_set_config function in drivers/media/tuners/tuner-xc2028.c in the Linux kernel before 4.6 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via vectors involving omission of the firmware name from a certain data structure. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2016-7913) - Use-after-free vulnerability in the snd_pcm_info() function in the ALSA subsystem in the Linux kernel allows attackers to induce a kernel memory corruption and possibly crash or lock up a system. Due to the nature of the flaw, a privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2017-0861) - A reachable assertion failure flaw was found in the Linux kernel built with KVM virtualisation(CONFIG_KVM) support with Virtual Function I/O feature (CONFIG_VFIO) enabled. This failure could occur if a malicious guest device sent a virtual interrupt (guest IRQ) with a larger (>1024) index value. (CVE-2017-1000252) - Linux kernel Virtualization Module (CONFIG_KVM) for the Intel processor family (CONFIG_KVM_INTEL) is vulnerable to a DoS issue. It could occur if a guest was to flood the I/O port 0x80 with write requests. A guest user could use this flaw to crash the host kernel resulting in DoS. (CVE-2017-1000407) - A flaw was found in the processing of incoming L2CAP bluetooth commands. Uninitialized stack variables can be sent to an attacker leaking data in kernel address space. (CVE-2017-1000410) - A race condition was found in the Linux kernel before version 4.11-rc1 in
