the Linux kernel made improper assumptions about the device
characteristics. A physically proximate attacker could use this cause
a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2019-15218)

It was discovered that the Line 6 POD USB device driver in the Linux
kernel did not properly validate data size information from the
device. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a
denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2019-15221)

Muyu Yu discovered that the CAN implementation in the Linux kernel in
some situations did not properly restrict the field size when
processing outgoing frames. A local attacker with CAP_NET_ADMIN
privileges could use this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2019-3701)

Vladis Dronov discovered that the debug interface for the Linux
kernel's HID subsystem did not properly validate passed parameters in
some situations. A local privileged attacker could use this to cause a
denial of service (infinite loop). (CVE-2019-3819).

"Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that
may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information
leaks.

CVE-2017-18249

A race condition was discovered in the disk space allocator of F2FS. A
user with access to an F2FS volume could use this to cause a denial of
service or other security impact.

CVE-2018-1128, CVE-2018-1129

The cephx authentication protocol used by Ceph was susceptible to
replay attacks, and calculated signatures incorrectly. These
vulnerabilities in the server required changes to authentication that
are incompatible with existing clients. The kernel's client code has
now been updated to be compatible with the fixed server.

CVE-2018-3639 (SSB)

Multiple researchers have discovered that Speculative Store Bypass
(SSB), a feature implemented in many processors, could be used to read
sensitive information from another context. In particular, code in a
software sandbox may be able to read sensitive information from
outside the sandbox. This issue is also known as Spectre variant 4.

This update adds a further mitigation for this issue in the
eBPF (Extended Berkeley Packet Filter) implementation.

CVE-2018-5391 (FragmentSmack)

Juha-Matti Tilli discovered a flaw in the way the Linux kernel handled
reassembly of fragmented IPv4 and IPv6 packets. A remote attacker can
take advantage of this flaw to trigger time and calculation expensive
fragment reassembly algorithms by sending specially crafted packets,
leading to remote denial of service.

This was previously mitigated by reducing the default limits
on memory usage for incomplete fragmented packets. This
update replaces that mitigation with a more complete fix.

CVE-2018-5848

The wil6210 wifi driver did not properly validate lengths in scan and
connection requests, leading to a possible buffer overflow. On systems
using this driver, a local user with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability
could use this for denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or
potentially for privilege escalation.

CVE-2018-12896, CVE-2018-13053

Team OWL337 reported possible integer overflows in the POSIX timer
implementation. These might have some security impact.

CVE-2018-13096, CVE-2018-13097, CVE-2018-13100, CVE-2018-14614,
CVE-2018-14616

Wen Xu from SSLab at Gatech reported that crafted F2FS volumes could
trigger a crash (BUG, Oops, or division by zero) and/or out-of-bounds
memory access. An attacker able to mount such a volume could use this
to cause a denial of service or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2018-13406

Dr Silvio Cesare of InfoSect reported a potential integer overflow in
the uvesafb driver. A user with permission to access such a device
might be able to use this for denial of service or privilege
escalation.

CVE-2018-14610, CVE-2018-14611, CVE-2018-14612, CVE-2018-14613

Wen Xu from SSLab at Gatech reported that crafted Btrfs volumes could
trigger a crash (Oops) and/or out-of-bounds memory access. An attacker
able to mount such a volume could use this to cause a denial of
service or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2018-15471 ((XSA-270)

Felix Wilhelm of Google Project Zero discovered a flaw in the hash
handling of the xen-netback Linux kernel module. A malicious or buggy
frontend may cause the (usually privileged) backend to make out of
bounds memory accesses, potentially resulting in privilege escalation,
denial of service, or information leaks.

https://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/advisory-270.html

CVE-2018-16862

Vasily Averin and Pavel Tikhomirov from Virtuozzo Kernel Team
discovered that the cleancache memory management feature did not
invalidate cached data for deleted files. On Xen guests using the tmem
driver, local users could potentially read data from other users'
deleted files if they were able to create new files on the same
volume.

CVE-2018-17972

Jann Horn reported that the /proc/*/stack files in procfs leaked
sensitive data from the kernel. These files are now only readable by
users with the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability (usually only root)

CVE-2018-18281

Jann Horn reported a race condition in the virtual memory manager that
can result in a process briefly having access to memory after it is
freed and reallocated. A local user could possibly exploit this for
denial of service (memory corruption) or for privilege escalation.

CVE-2018-18690

Kanda Motohiro reported that XFS did not correctly handle some xattr
(extended attribute) writes that require changing the disk format of
the xattr. A user with access to an XFS volume could use this for
denial of service.

CVE-2018-18710

It was discovered that the cdrom driver does not correctly validate
the parameter to the CDROM_SELECT_DISC ioctl. A user with access to a
cdrom device could use this to read sensitive information from the
kernel or to cause a denial of service (crash).

CVE-2018-19407

Wei Wu reported a potential crash (Oops) in the KVM implementation for
x86 processors. A user with access to /dev/kvm could use this for
denial of service.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version
4.9.144-3.1~deb8u1. This version also includes fixes for Debian bugs
#890034, #896911, #907581, #915229, and #915231; and other fixes
included in upstream stable updates.

We recommend that you upgrade your linux-4.9 packages.

    descriptionThis update is now available for all supported architectures. For reference the original advisory text follows. Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information leaks. CVE-2015-8839 A race condition was found in the ext4 filesystem implementation. A local user could exploit this to cause a denial of service (filesystem corruption). CVE-2018-14610, CVE-2018-14611, CVE-2018-14612, CVE-2018-14613 Wen Xu from SSLab at Gatech reported that crafted Btrfs volumes could trigger a crash (Oops) and/or out-of-bounds memory access.

CVE-2019-5108 Mitchell Frank of Cisco discovered that when the IEEE 802.11 (WiFi) stack was used in AP mode with roaming, it would trigger roaming for a newly associated station before the station was authenticated. An attacker within range of the AP could use this to cause a denial of service, either by filling up a switching table or by redirecting traffic away from other stations. CVE-2019-19319 Jungyeon discovered that a crafted filesystem can cause the ext4 implementation to deallocate or reallocate journal blocks. A user permitted to mount filesystems could use this to cause a denial of service (crash), or possibly for privilege escalation. CVE-2019-19447 It was discovered that the ext4 filesystem driver did not safely handle unlinking of an inode that, due to filesystem corruption, already has a link count of 0. An attacker able to mount arbitrary ext4 volumes could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation. CVE-2019-19768 Tristan Madani reported a race condition in the blktrace debug facility that could result in a use-after-free.

This vulnerability can be mitigated by a microcode update,
either as part of system firmware (BIOS) or through the
intel-microcode package in Debian's non-free archive
section. This kernel update only provides reporting of the
vulnerability and the option to disable the mitigation if it
is not needed.

CVE-2020-1749

Xiumei Mu reported that some network protocols that can run on top of
IPv6 would bypass the Transformation (XFRM) layer used by IPsec,
IPcomp/IPcomp6, IPIP, and IPv6 Mobility. This could result in
disclosure of information over the network, since it would not be
encrypted or routed according to the system policy.

CVE-2020-2732

Paulo Bonzini discovered that the KVM implementation for Intel
processors did not properly handle instruction emulation for L2 guests
when nested virtualization is enabled. This could allow an L2 guest to
cause privilege escalation, denial of service, or information leaks in
the L1 guest.

CVE-2020-8647, CVE-2020-8649

The Hulk Robot tool found a potential MMIO out-of-bounds access in the
vgacon driver. A local user permitted to access a virtual terminal
(/dev/tty1 etc.) on a system using the vgacon driver could use this to
cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for
privilege escalation.

CVE-2020-8648

The syzbot tool found a race condition in the the virtual terminal
driver, which could result in a use-after-free. A local user permitted
to access a virtual terminal could use this to cause a denial of
service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for privilege
escalation.

CVE-2020-9383

Jordy Zomer reported an incorrect range check in the floppy driver
which could lead to a static out-of-bounds access. A local user
permitted to access a floppy drive could use this to cause a denial of
service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for privilege
escalation.

CVE-2020-10690

It was discovered that the PTP hardware clock subsystem did not
properly manage device lifetimes. Removing a PTP hardware clock from
the system while a user process was using it could lead to a
use-after-free. The security impact of this is unclear.

CVE-2020-10751

Dmitry Vyukov reported that the SELinux subsystem did not properly
handle validating multiple messages, which could allow a privileged
attacker to bypass SELinux netlink restrictions.

CVE-2020-10942

It was discovered that the vhost_net driver did not properly validate
the type of sockets set as back-ends. A local user permitted to access
/dev/vhost-net could use this to cause a stack corruption via crafted
system calls, resulting in denial of service (crash) or possibly
privilege escalation.

CVE-2020-11494

It was discovered that the slcan (serial line CAN) network driver did
not fully initialise CAN headers for received packets, resulting in an
information leak from the kernel to user-space or over the CAN
network.

CVE-2020-11565

Entropy Moe reported that the shared memory filesystem (tmpfs) did not
correctly handle an 'mpol' mount option specifying an empty node list,
leading to a stack-based out-of-bounds write. If user namespaces are
enabled, a local user could use this to cause a denial of service
(crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2020-11608, CVE-2020-11609, CVE-2020-11668

It was discovered that the ov519, stv06xx, and xirlink_cit media
drivers did not properly validate USB device descriptors. A physically
present user with a specially constructed USB device could use this to
cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly for privilege
escalation.

CVE-2020-12114

Piotr Krysiuk discovered a race condition between the umount and
pivot_root operations in the filesystem core (vfs). A local user with
the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability in any user namespace could use this to
cause a denial of service (crash).

CVE-2020-12464

Kyungtae Kim reported a race condition in the USB core that can result
in a use-after-free. It is not clear how this can be exploited, but it
could result in a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or
privilege escalation.

CVE-2020-12652

Tom Hatskevich reported a bug in the mptfusion storage drivers. An
ioctl handler fetched a parameter from user memory twice, creating a
race condition which could result in incorrect locking of internal
data structures. A local user permitted to access /dev/mptctl could
use this to cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or
for privilege escalation.

CVE-2020-12653

It was discovered that the mwifiex WiFi driver did not sufficiently
validate scan requests, resulting a potential heap buffer overflow. A
local user with CAP_NET_ADMIN capability could use this to cause a
denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for
privilege escalation.

CVE-2020-12654

It was discovered that the mwifiex WiFi driver did not sufficiently
validate WMM parameters received from an access point (AP), resulting
a potential heap buffer overflow. A malicious AP could use this to
cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly to
execute code on a vulnerable system.

CVE-2020-12769

It was discovered that the spi-dw SPI host driver did not properly
serialise access to its internal state. The security impact of this is
unclear, and this driver is not included in Debian's binary packages.

CVE-2020-12770

It was discovered that the sg (SCSI generic) driver did not correctly
release internal resources in a particular error case. A local user
permitted to access an sg device could possibly use this to cause a
denial of service (resource exhaustion).

CVE-2020-12826

Adam Zabrocki reported a weakness in the signal subsystem's permission
checks. A parent process can choose an arbitary signal for a child
process to send when it exits, but if the parent has executed a new
program then the default SIGCHLD signal is sent. A local user
permitted to run a program for several days could bypass this check,
execute a setuid program, and then send an arbitrary signal to it.
Depending on the setuid programs installed, this could have some
security impact.

CVE-2020-13143

Kyungtae Kim reported a potential heap out-of-bounds write in the USB
gadget subsystem. A local user permitted to write to the gadget
configuration filesystem could use this to cause a denial of service
(crash or memory corruption) or potentially for privilege escalation.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version
3.16.84-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your linux packages.

  script_set_attribute(attribute:"description", value:
"According 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 :

  - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's perf
    subsystem retrieved userlevel stack traces on PowerPC
    systems. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw
    to cause a denial of service on the system by creating
    a special stack layout that would force the
    perf_callchain_user_64() function into an infinite
    loop.(CVE-2015-6526i1/4%0

  - A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel. Payloads
    of NM entries are not supposed to contain NUL. When
    such entry is processed, only the part prior to the
    first NUL goes into the concatenation (i.e. the
    directory entry name being encoded by a bunch of NM
    entries). The process stops when the amount collected
    so far + the claimed amount in the current NM entry
    exceed 254. However, the value returned as the total
    length is the sum of *claimed* sizes, not the actual
    amount collected. And that's what will be passed to
    readdir() callback as the name length - 8Kb
    __copy_to_user() from a buffer allocated by
    __get_free_page().(CVE-2016-4913i1/4%0

  - The perf_trace_event_perm function in
    kernel/trace/trace_event_perf.c in the Linux kernel
    before 3.12.2 does not properly restrict access to the
    perf subsystem, which allows local users to enable
    function tracing via a crafted
    application.(CVE-2013-2930i1/4%0

  - The mincore() implementation in mm/mincore.c in the
    Linux kernel through 4.19.13 allowed local attackers to
    observe page cache access patterns of other processes
    on the same system, potentially allowing sniffing of
    secret information. (Fixing this affects the output of
    the fincore program.) Limited remote exploitation may
    be possible, as demonstrated by latency differences in
    accessing public files from an Apache HTTP
    Server.(CVE-2019-5489i1/4%0

  - It was found that the espfix functionality could be
    bypassed by installing a 16-bit RW data segment into
    GDT instead of LDT (which espfix checks), and using
    that segment on the stack. A local, unprivileged user
    could potentially use this flaw to leak kernel stack
    addresses.(CVE-2014-8133i1/4%0

  - An issue was discovered in the btrfs filesystem code in
    the Linux kernel. An out-of-bounds access is possible
    in write_extent_buffer() when mounting and operating a
    crafted btrfs image due to a lack of verification at
    mount time within the btrfs_read_block_groups() in
    fs/btrfs/extent-tree.c function. This could lead to a
    system crash and a denial of service.(CVE-2018-14610i1/4%0

  - kernel/bpf/verifier.c in the Linux kernel through
    4.14.8 mishandles states_equal comparisons between the
    pointer data type and the UNKNOWN_VALUE data type,
    which allows local users to obtain potentially
    sensitive address information, aka a 'pointer
    leak.'(CVE-2017-17864i1/4%0

  - drivers/hid/hid-lenovo-tpkbd.c in the Human Interface
    Device (HID) subsystem in the Linux kernel through
    3.11, when CONFIG_HID_LENOVO_TPKBD is enabled, allows
    physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of
    service (heap-based out-of-bounds write) via a crafted
    device.(CVE-2013-2894i1/4%0

  - Memory leak in the sas_smp_get_phy_events function in
    drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_expander.c in the Linux kernel
    allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel
    memory exhaustion) via multiple read accesses to files
    in the /sys/class/sas_phy directory.(CVE-2018-7757i1/4%0

  - It was found that the original fix for CVE-2016-6786
    was incomplete. There exist a race between two
    concurrent sys_perf_event_open() calls when both try
    and move the same pre-existing software group into a
    hardware context.(CVE-2017-6001i1/4%0

  - In the Linux kernel before 4.20.12,
    net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_nat_snmp_basic_main.c in the SNMP
    NAT module has insufficient ASN.1 length checks (aka an
    array index error), making out-of-bounds read and write
    operations possible, leading to an OOPS or local
    privilege escalation. This affects snmp_version and
    snmp_helper.(CVE-2019-9162i1/4%0

  - An information leak flaw was found in the way the Linux
    kernel's Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA)
    implementation handled access of the user control's
    state. A local, privileged user could use this flaw to
    leak kernel memory to user space.(CVE-2014-4652i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found that the vfs_rename() function did not
    detect hard links on overlayfs. A local, unprivileged
    user could use the rename syscall on overlayfs on top
    of xfs to crash the system.(CVE-2016-6198i1/4%0

  - It was found that when file permissions were modified
    via chmod and the user modifying them was not in the
    owning group or capable of CAP_FSETID, the setgid bit
    would be cleared. Setting a POSIX ACL via setxattr sets
    the file permissions as well as the new ACL, but
    doesn't clear the setgid bit in a similar way. This
    could allow a local user to gain group privileges via
    certain setgid applications.(CVE-2016-7097i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's Crypto
    subsystem handled automatic loading of kernel modules.
    A local user could use this flaw to load any installed
    kernel module, and thus increase the attack surface of
    the running kernel.(CVE-2014-9644i1/4%0

  - An arbitrary memory r/w access issue was found in the
    Linux kernel compiled with the eBPF bpf(2) system call
    (CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL) support. The issue could occur due
    to calculation errors in the eBPF verifier module,
    triggered by user supplied malicious BPF program. An
    unprivileged user could use this flaw to escalate their
    privileges on a system. Setting parameter
    'kernel.unprivileged_bpf_disabled=1' prevents such
    privilege escalation by restricting access to bpf(2)
    call.(CVE-2017-16995i1/4%0

  - 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-2017-15274i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's keyring handling
    code: the key_reject_and_link() function could be
    forced to free an arbitrary memory block. An attacker
    could use this flaw to trigger a use-after-free
    condition on the system, potentially allowing for
    privilege escalation.(CVE-2016-4470i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the way certain interfaces of the
    Linux kernel's Infiniband subsystem used write() as
    bi-directional ioctl() replacement, which could lead to
    insufficient memory security checks when being invoked
    using the splice() system call. A local unprivileged
    user on a system with either Infiniband hardware
    present or RDMA Userspace Connection Manager Access
    module explicitly loaded, could use this flaw to
    escalate their privileges on the
    system.(CVE-2016-4565i1/4%0

  - It was found that the Linux kernel's IPv6 network stack
    did not properly validate the value of the MTU variable
    when it was set. A remote attacker could potentially
    use this flaw to disrupt a target system's networking
    (packet loss) by setting an invalid MTU value, for
    example, via a NetworkManager daemon that is processing
    router advertisement packets running on the target
    system.(CVE-2015-8215i1/4%0
