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).

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.

"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 :

  - It was found that the parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal()
    function of the Linux kernel's ISOFS implementation did
    not correctly check relocated directories when
    processing Rock Ridge child link (CL) tags. An attacker
    with physical access to the system could use a
    specially crafted ISO image to crash the system or,
    potentially, escalate their privileges on the
    system.(CVE-2014-5472i1/4%0

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel's F2FS
    filesystem code. An out-of-bounds access vulnerability
    is possible the in __remove_dirty_segment() in
    fs/f2fs/segment.c function when mounting a crafted f2fs
    image.(CVE-2018-14614i1/4%0

  - Race condition in kernel/events/core.c in the Linux
    kernel before 4.4 allows local users to gain privileges
    or cause a denial of service via use-after-free
    vulnerability by leveraging incorrect handling of an
    swevent data structure during a CPU unplug
    operation.(CVE-2015-8963i1/4%0

  - The skbs processed by ip_cmsg_recv() are not guaranteed
    to be linear (e.g. when sending UDP packets over
    loopback with MSGMORE). Using csum_partial() on
    potentially the whole skb len is dangerous instead be
    on the safe side and use skb_checksum(). This may lead
    to an infoleak as the kernel memory may be checksummed
    and sent as part of the packet.(CVE-2017-6347i1/4%0

  - The apic_get_tmcct function in arch/x86/kvm/lapic.c in
    the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.12.5
    allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service
    (divide-by-zero error and host OS crash) via crafted
    modifications of the TMICT value.(CVE-2013-6367i1/4%0

  - A use-after-free issue was found in the way the Linux
    kernel's KVM hypervisor processed posted interrupts
    when nested(=1) virtualization is enabled. In
    nested_get_vmcs12_pages(), in case of an error while
    processing posted interrupt address, it unmaps the
    'pi_desc_page' without resetting 'pi_desc' descriptor
    address, which is later used in pi_test_and_clear_on().
    A guest user/process could use this flaw to crash the
    host kernel resulting in DoS or potentially gain
    privileged access to a system.(CVE-2018-16882i1/4%0

  - It was discovered that the atl2_probe() function in the
    Atheros L2 Ethernet driver in the Linux kernel
    incorrectly enabled scatter/gather I/O. A remote
    attacker could use this flaw to obtain potentially
    sensitive information from the kernel
    memory.(CVE-2016-2117i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the way the nft_flush_table()
    function of the Linux kernel's netfilter tables
    implementation flushed rules that were referencing
    deleted chains. A local user who has the CAP_NET_ADMIN
    capability could use this flaw to crash the
    system.(CVE-2015-1573i1/4%0

  - The powermate_probe function in
    drivers/input/misc/powermate.c in the Linux kernel
    before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to
    cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and
    system crash) via a crafted endpoints value in a USB
    device descriptor.(CVE-2016-2186i1/4%0

  - It was found that KVM's Write to Model Specific
    Register (WRMSR) instruction emulation would write
    non-canonical values passed in by the guest to certain
    MSRs in the host's context. A privileged guest user
    could use this flaw to crash the host.(CVE-2014-3610i1/4%0

  - The BPF_S_ANC_NLATTR_NEST extension implementation in
    the sk_run_filter function in net/core/filter.c in the
    Linux kernel through 3.14.3 uses the reverse order in a
    certain subtraction, which allows local users to cause
    a denial of service (over-read and system crash) via
    crafted BPF instructions. NOTE: the affected code was
    moved to the __skb_get_nlattr_nest function before the
    vulnerability was announced.(CVE-2014-3145i1/4%0

  - The yam_ioctl function in drivers/net/hamradio/yam.c in
    the Linux kernel before 3.12.8 does not initialize a
    certain structure member, which allows local users to
    obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by
    leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for an
    SIOCYAMGCFG ioctl call.(CVE-2014-1446i1/4%0

  - 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-2017-2636i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the way Linux kernel's Transparent
    Huge Pages (THP) implementation handled non-huge page
    migration. A local, unprivileged user could use this
    flaw to crash the kernel by migrating transparent
    hugepages.(CVE-2014-3940i1/4%0

  - A security flaw was found in the
    chap_server_compute_md5() function in the ISCSI target
    code in the Linux kernel in a way an authentication
    request from an ISCSI initiator is processed. An
    unauthenticated remote attacker can cause a stack
    buffer overflow and smash up to 17 bytes of the stack.
    The attack requires the iSCSI target to be enabled on
    the victim host. Depending on how the target's code was
    built (i.e. depending on a compiler, compile flags and
    hardware architecture) an attack may lead to a system
    crash and thus to a denial of service or possibly to a
    non-authorized access to data exported by an iSCSI
    target. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege
    escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we
    believe it is highly unlikely.(CVE-2018-14633i1/4%0

  - A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel where
    filesystems mounted with data=ordered mode may allow an
    attacker to read stale data from recently allocated
    blocks in new files after a system 'reset' by abusing
    ext4 mechanics of delayed allocation.(CVE-2017-7495i1/4%0

  - drivers/media/platform/msm/broadcast/tsc.c in the TSC
    driver for the Linux kernel 3.x, as used in Qualcomm
    Innovation Center (QuIC) Android contributions for MSM
    devices and other products, allows attackers to cause a
    denial of service (invalid pointer dereference) or
    possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted
    application that makes a TSC_GET_CARD_STATUS ioctl
    call.(CVE-2015-0573i1/4%0

  - It was found that the unlink and rename functionality
    in overlayfs did not verify the upper dentry for
    staleness. A local, unprivileged user could use the
    rename syscall on overlayfs on top of xfs to panic or
    crash the system.(CVE-2016-6197i1/4%0

  - In net/socket.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.1,
    there is a race condition between fchownat and close in
    cases where they target the same socket file
    descriptor, related to the sock_close and
    sockfs_setattr functions. fchownat does not increment
    the file descriptor reference count, which allows close
    to set the socket to NULL during fchownat's execution,
    leading to a NULL pointer dereference and system
    crash.(CVE-2018-12232i1/4%0

  - The ath9k_htc_set_bssid_mask function in
    drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/htc_drv_main.c in the
    Linux kernel through 3.12 uses a BSSID masking approach
    to determine the set of MAC addresses on which a Wi-Fi
    device is listening, which allows remote attackers to
    discover the original MAC address after spoofing by
    sending a series of packets to MAC addresses with
    certain bit manipulations.(CVE-2013-4579i1/4%0
