HIGH Summary
The snd_msndmidi_input_read function in sound/isa/msnd/msnd_midi.c in the Linux kernel through 4.11.7 allows local users to cause a denial of service (over-boundary access) or possibly have unspecified other impact by changing the value of a message queue head pointer between two kernel reads of that value, aka a "double fetch" vulnerability.
Vulnerable Configurations
Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)
Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)
- Overread Buffers An adversary attacks a target by providing input that causes an application to read beyond the boundary of a defined buffer. This typically occurs when a value influencing where to start or stop reading is set to reflect positions outside of the valid memory location of the buffer. This type of attack may result in exposure of sensitive information, a system crash, or arbitrary code execution.

As a result of the race the next slab data or the slab's free list pointer can be corrupted with attacker-controlled data, which may lead to the privilege escalation.(CVE-2017-7533i1/4%0 - A privilege-escalation vulnerability was discovered in the Linux kernel built with User Namespace (CONFIG_USER_NS) support. The flaw occurred when the ptrace() system call was used on a root-owned process to enter a user namespace. A privileged namespace user could exploit this flaw to potentially escalate their privileges on the system, outside the original namespace.(CVE-2015-8709i1/4%0 - Use-after-free vulnerability in drivers/net/ppp/ppp_generic.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5.2 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash, or spinlock) or possibly have unspecified other impact by removing a network namespace, related to the ppp_register_net_channel and ppp_unregister_channel functions.(CVE-2016-4805i1/4%0 - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's kvm_iommu_map_pages() function handled IOMMU mapping failures. A privileged user in a guest with an assigned host device could use this flaw to crash the host.(CVE-2014-3601i1/4%0 - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of associative arrays introduced in 3.13. This functionality was backported to the 3.10 kernels in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. The flaw involved a null pointer dereference in assoc_array_apply_edit() due to incorrect node-splitting in assoc_array implementation. This affects the keyring key type and thus key addition and link creation operations may cause the kernel to panic.(CVE-2017-12193i1/4%0 - Multiple race conditions in drivers/char/adsprpc.c and drivers/char/adsprpc_compat.c in the ADSPRPC driver for the Linux kernel 3.x, as used in Qualcomm Innovation Center (QuIC) Android contributions for MSM devices and other products, allow attackers to cause a denial of service (zero-value write) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a COMPAT_FASTRPC_IOCTL_INVOKE_FD ioctl call.(CVE-2015-0572i1/4%0 - The sanity_check_ckpt function in fs/f2fs/super.c in the Linux kernel before version 4.12.4 does not validate the blkoff and segno arrays. This allows an unprivileged, local user to cause a system panic and DoS. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely.(CVE-2017-10663i1/4%0 - A stack overflow flaw caused by infinite recursion was found in the way the Linux kernel's Universal Disk Format (UDF) file system implementation processed indirect Information Control Blocks (ICBs). An attacker with physical access to the system could use a specially crafted UDF image to crash the system.(CVE-2014-6410i1/4%0 - Race condition in the ion_ioctl function in drivers/staging/android/ion/ion.c in the Linux kernel before 4.6 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) by calling ION_IOC_FREE on two CPUs at the same time.(CVE-2016-9120i1/4%0 - drivers/hid/hid-picolcd_core.c in the Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.11, when CONFIG_HID_PICOLCD is enabled, allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and OOPS) via a crafted device.(CVE-2013-2899i1/4%0 - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of overlayfs. An attacker can leak file resources in the system by opening a large file with write permissions on a overlay filesystem that is insufficient to deal with the size of the write.When unmounting the underlying device, the system is unable to free an inode and this will consume resources. Repeating this for all available inodes and memory will create a denial of service situation.(CVE-2015-8953i1/4%0 - Buffer overflow in the mp_override_legacy_irq() function in arch/x86/kernel/acpi/boot.c in the Linux kernel through 4.12.2 allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted ACPI table.(CVE-2017-11473i1/4%0 - Use-after-free vulnerability in the kvm_ioctl_create_device function in virt/kvm/kvm_main.c in the Linux kernel before 4.8.13 allows host OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS crash) or possibly gain privileges via crafted ioctl calls on the /dev/kvm device.(CVE-2016-10150i1/4%0 Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues."); # https://developer.huaweicloud.com/ict/en/site-euleros/euleros/security-advisories/EulerOS-SA-2019-1523 script_set_attribute(attribute:"see_also", value:"http://www.nessus.org/u?1ab359ca"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"solution", value: "Update the affected kernel packages."); script_set_cvss_base_vector("CVSS2#AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C"); script_set_cvss_temporal_vector("CVSS2#E:POC/RL:OF/RC:C"); script_set_cvss3_base_vector("CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"); script_set_cvss3_temporal_vector("CVSS:3.0/E:P/RL:O/RC:C"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"exploitability_ease", value:"Exploits are available"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"exploit_available", value:"true"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"patch_publication_date", value:"2019/05/09"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"plugin_publication_date", value:"2019/05/14"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"plugin_type", value:"local"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:huawei:euleros:kernel"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:huawei:euleros:kernel-devel"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:huawei:euleros:kernel-headers"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:huawei:euleros:kernel-tools"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:huawei:euleros:kernel-tools-libs"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:huawei:euleros:kernel-tools-libs-devel"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:huawei:euleros:perf"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:huawei:euleros:python-perf"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"cpe:/o:huawei:euleros:uvp:3.0.1.0"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"generated_plugin", value:"current"); script_end_attributes(); script_category(ACT_GATHER_INFO); script_family(english:"Huawei Local Security Checks"); script_copyright(english:"This script is Copyright (C) 2019-2020 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof."); script_dependencies("ssh_get_info.nasl"); script_require_keys("Host/local_checks_enabled", "Host/cpu", "Host/EulerOS/release", "Host/EulerOS/rpm-list", "Host/EulerOS/uvp_version"); exit(0); } include("audit.inc"); include("global_settings.inc"); include("rpm.inc"); if (!get_kb_item("Host/local_checks_enabled")) audit(AUDIT_LOCAL_CHECKS_NOT_ENABLED); release = get_kb_item("Host/EulerOS/release"); if (isnull(release) || release !~ "^EulerOS") audit(AUDIT_OS_NOT, "EulerOS"); uvp = get_kb_item("Host/EulerOS/uvp_version"); if (uvp != "3.0.1.0") audit(AUDIT_OS_NOT, "EulerOS Virtualization 3.0.1.0"); if (!get_kb_item("Host/EulerOS/rpm-list")) audit(AUDIT_PACKAGE_LIST_MISSING); cpu = get_kb_item("Host/cpu"); if (isnull(cpu)) audit(AUDIT_UNKNOWN_ARCH); if ("x86_64" >!< cpu && cpu !~ "^i[3-6]86$" && "aarch64" >!< cpu) audit(AUDIT_LOCAL_CHECKS_NOT_IMPLEMENTED, "EulerOS", cpu); if ("aarch64" >!< cpu) audit(AUDIT_ARCH_NOT, "aarch64", cpu); flag = 0; pkgs = ["kernel-4.19.28-1.2.117", "kernel-devel-4.19.28-1.2.117", "kernel-headers-4.19.28-1.2.117", "kernel-tools-4.19.28-1.2.117", "kernel-tools-libs-4.19.28-1.2.117", "kernel-tools-libs-devel-4.19.28-1.2.117", "perf-4.19.28-1.2.117", "python-perf-4.19.28-1.2.117"]; foreach (pkg in pkgs) if (rpm_check(release:"EulerOS-2.0", reference:pkg)) flag++; if (flag) { security_report_v4( port : 0, severity : SECURITY_HOLE, extra : rpm_report_get() ); exit(0); } else { tested = pkg_tests_get(); if (tested) audit(AUDIT_PACKAGE_NOT_AFFECTED, tested); else audit(AUDIT_PACKAGE_NOT_INSTALLED, "kernel"); }
