Summary

An exploitable denial-of-service vulnerability exists in the Linux kernel prior to mainline 5.3. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by triggering AP to send IAPP location updates for stations before the required authentication process has completed. This could lead to different denial-of-service scenarios, either by causing CAM table attacks, or by leading to traffic flapping if faking already existing clients in other nearby APs of the same wireless infrastructure. An attacker can forge Authentication and Association Request packets to trigger this vulnerability.

Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Authentication Abuse
    An attacker obtains unauthorized access to an application, service or device either through knowledge of the inherent weaknesses of an authentication mechanism, or by exploiting a flaw in the authentication scheme's implementation. In such an attack an authentication mechanism is functioning but a carefully controlled sequence of events causes the mechanism to grant access to the attacker. This attack may exploit assumptions made by the target's authentication procedures, such as assumptions regarding trust relationships or assumptions regarding the generation of secret values. This attack differs from Authentication Bypass attacks in that Authentication Abuse allows the attacker to be certified as a valid user through illegitimate means, while Authentication Bypass allows the user to access protected material without ever being certified as an authenticated user. This attack does not rely on prior sessions established by successfully authenticating users, as relied upon for the "Exploitation of Session Variables, Resource IDs and other Trusted Credentials" attack patterns.
  • Exploiting Trust in Client (aka Make the Client Invisible)
    An attack of this type exploits a programs' vulnerabilities in client/server communication channel authentication and data integrity. It leverages the implicit trust a server places in the client, or more importantly, that which the server believes is the client. An attacker executes this type of attack by placing themselves in the communication channel between client and server such that communication directly to the server is possible where the server believes it is communicating only with a valid client. There are numerous variations of this type of attack.
  • Utilizing REST's Trust in the System Resource to Register Man in the Middle
    This attack utilizes a REST(REpresentational State Transfer)-style applications' trust in the system resources and environment to place man in the middle once SSL is terminated. Rest applications premise is that they leverage existing infrastructure to deliver web services functionality. An example of this is a Rest application that uses HTTP Get methods and receives a HTTP response with an XML document. These Rest style web services are deployed on existing infrastructure such as Apache and IIS web servers with no SOAP stack required. Unfortunately from a security standpoint, there frequently is no interoperable identity security mechanism deployed, so Rest developers often fall back to SSL to deliver security. In large data centers, SSL is typically terminated at the edge of the network - at the firewall, load balancer, or router. Once the SSL is terminated the HTTP request is in the clear (unless developers have hashed or encrypted the values, but this is rare). The attacker can utilize a sniffer such as Wireshark to snapshot the credentials, such as username and password that are passed in the clear once SSL is terminated. Once the attacker gathers these credentials, they can submit requests to the web service provider just as authorized user do. There is not typically an authentication on the client side, beyond what is passed in the request itself so once this is compromised, then this is generally sufficient to compromise the service's authentication scheme.
  • Man in the Middle Attack
    This type of attack targets the communication between two components (typically client and server). The attacker places himself in the communication channel between the two components. Whenever one component attempts to communicate with the other (data flow, authentication challenges, etc.), the data first goes to the attacker, who has the opportunity to observe or alter it, and it is then passed on to the other component as if it was never intercepted. This interposition is transparent leaving the two compromised components unaware of the potential corruption or leakage of their communications. The potential for Man-in-the-Middle attacks yields an implicit lack of trust in communication or identify between two components.

    descriptionAccording to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities : - The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz), the core of any Linux operating system. The kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system: memory allocation, process allocation, device input and output, etc.Security Fix(es):** DISPUTED ** In kernel/compat.c in the Linux kernel before 3.17, as used in Google Chrome OS and other products, there is a possible out-of-bounds read. restart_syscall uses uninitialized data when restarting compat_sys_nanosleep. NOTE: this is disputed because the code path is unreachable.(CVE-2014-3180)A heap overflow flaw was found in the Linux kernel, all versions 3.x.x and 4.x.x before 4.18.0, in Marvell WiFi chip driver. The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a system crash, resulting in a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code. The highest threat with this vulnerability is with the availability of the system. If code execution occurs, the code will run with the permissions of root. This will affect both confidentiality and integrity of files on the system.(CVE-2019-14901)A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel, version kernel-2.6.32, in Marvell WiFi chip driver. A remote attacker could cause a denial of service (system crash) or, possibly execute arbitrary code, when the lbs_ibss_join_existing function is called after a STA connects to an AP.(CVE-2019-14896)A memory leak in the ath10k_usb_hif_tx_sg() function in driverset/wireless/ath/ath10k/usb.c in the Linux kernel through 5.3.11 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering usb_submit_urb() failures, aka CID-b8d17e7d93d2.(CVE-2019-19078)A memory leak in the mlx5_fpga_conn_create_cq() function in driverset/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/fpga/conn.c in the Linux kernel before 5.3.11 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering mlx5_vector2eqn() failures, aka CID-c8c2a057fdc7.(CVE-2019-19045)A stack-based buffer overflow was found in the Linux kernel, version kernel-2.6.32, in Marvell WiFi chip driver.

    "According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the
    EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following
    vulnerabilities :
    
      - The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz),
        the core of any Linux operating system. The kernel
        handles the basic functions of the operating system:
        memory allocation, process allocation, device input and
        output, etc.Security Fix(es):** DISPUTED ** In
        kernel/compat.c in the Linux kernel before 3.17, as
        used in Google Chrome OS and other products, there is a
        possible out-of-bounds read. restart_syscall uses
        uninitialized data when restarting
        compat_sys_nanosleep. NOTE: this is disputed because
        the code path is unreachable.(CVE-2014-3180)A heap
        overflow flaw was found in the Linux kernel, all
        versions 3.x.x and 4.x.x before 4.18.0, in Marvell WiFi
        chip driver. The vulnerability allows a remote attacker
        to cause a system crash, resulting in a denial of
        service, or execute arbitrary code. The highest threat
        with this vulnerability is with the availability of the
        system. If code execution occurs, the code will run
        with the permissions of root. This will affect both
        confidentiality and integrity of files on the
        system.(CVE-2019-14901)A heap-based buffer overflow
        vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel, version
        kernel-2.6.32, in Marvell WiFi chip driver. A remote
        attacker could cause a denial of service (system crash)
        or, possibly execute arbitrary code, when the
        lbs_ibss_join_existing function is called after a STA
        connects to an AP.(CVE-2019-14896)A memory leak in the
        ath10k_usb_hif_tx_sg() function in
        driverset/wireless/ath/ath10k/usb.c in the Linux kernel
        through 5.3.11 allows attackers to cause a denial of
        service (memory consumption) by triggering
        usb_submit_urb() failures, aka
        CID-b8d17e7d93d2.(CVE-2019-19078)A memory leak in the
        mlx5_fpga_conn_create_cq() function in
        driverset/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/fpga/conn.c in
        the Linux kernel before 5.3.11 allows attackers to
        cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by
        triggering mlx5_vector2eqn() failures, aka
        CID-c8c2a057fdc7.(CVE-2019-19045)A stack-based buffer
        overflow was found in the Linux kernel, version
        kernel-2.6.32, in Marvell WiFi chip driver. An attacker
        is able to cause a denial of service (system crash) or,
        possibly execute arbitrary code, when a STA works in
        IBSS mode (allows connecting stations together without
        the use of an AP) and connects to another
        STA.(CVE-2019-14897)An out-of-bounds memory write issue
        was found in the Linux Kernel, version 3.13 through
        5.4, in the way the Linux kernel's KVM hypervisor
        handled the 'KVM_GET_EMULATED_CPUID' ioctl(2) request
        to get CPUID features emulated by the KVM hypervisor. A
        user or process able to access the '/dev/kvm' device
        could use this flaw to crash the system, resulting in a
        denial of service.(CVE-2019-19332)Improper invalidation
        for page table updates by a virtual guest operating
        system for multiple Intel(R) Processors may allow an
        authenticated user to potentially enable denial of
        service of the host system via local
        access.(CVE-2018-12207)In the Android kernel in the
        video driver there is a use after free due to a race
        condition. This could lead to local escalation of
        privilege with no additional execution privileges
        needed. User interaction is not needed for
        exploitation.(CVE-2019-9458)In the AppleTalk subsystem
        in the Linux kernel before 5.1, there is a potential
        NULL pointer dereference because register_snap_client
        may return NULL. This will lead to denial of service in
        net/appletalk/aarp.c and net/appletalk/ddp.c, as
        demonstrated by unregister_snap_client, aka
        CID-9804501fa122.(CVE-2019-19227)In the Linux kernel
        5.0.21, mounting a crafted btrfs filesystem image,
        performing some operations, and then making a syncfs
        system call can lead to a use-after-free in
        __mutex_lock in kernel/locking/mutex.c. This is related
        to mutex_can_spin_on_owner in kernel/locking/mutex.c,
        __btrfs_qgroup_free_meta in fs/btrfs/qgroup.c, and
        btrfs_insert_delayed_items in
        fs/btrfs/delayed-inode.c.(CVE-2019-19813)In the Linux
        kernel 5.4.0-rc2, there is a use-after-free (read) in
        the __blk_add_trace function in kernel/trace/blktrace.c
        (which is used to fill out a blk_io_trace structure and
        place it in a per-cpu sub-buffer).(CVE-2019-19768)In
        the Linux kernel before 5.0.6, there is a NULL pointer
        dereference in drop_sysctl_table() in
        fs/proc/proc_sysctl.c, related to put_links, aka
        CID-23da9588037e.(CVE-2019-20054)In the Linux kernel
        before 5.2.9, there is an info-leak bug that can be
        caused by a malicious USB device in the
        driverset/can/usb/peak_usb/pcan_usb_pro.c driver, aka
        CID-ead16e53c2f0.(CVE-2019-19536)In the Linux kernel
        before 5.3.11, there is an info-leak bug that can be
        caused by a malicious USB device in the
        driverset/can/usb/peak_usb/pcan_usb_core.c driver, aka
        CID-f7a1337f0d29.(CVE-2019-19534)In the Linux kernel
        before 5.3.6, there is a use-after-free bug that can be
        caused by a malicious USB device in the
        driverset/ieee802154/atusb.c driver, aka
        CID-7fd25e6fc035.(CVE-2019-19525)Insufficient access
        control in a subsystem for Intel (R) processor graphics
        in 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th Generation Intel(R) Core(TM)
        Processor Families Intel(R) Pentium(R) Processor J, N,
        Silver and Gold Series Intel(R) Celeron(R) Processor J,
        N, G3900 and G4900 Series Intel(R) Atom(R) Processor A
        and E3900 Series Intel(R) Xeon(R) Processor E3-1500 v5
        and v6, E-2100 and E-2200 Processor Families Intel(R)
        Graphics Driver for Windows before 26.20.100.6813 (DCH)
        or 26.20.100.6812 and before 21.20.x.5077
        (aka15.45.5077), i915 Linux Driver for Intel(R)
        Processor Graphics before versions 5.4-rc7, 5.3.11,
        4.19.84, 4.14.154, 4.9.201, 4.4.201 may allow an
        authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of
        privilege via local access.(CVE-2019-0155)Insufficient
        input validation in Kernel Mode Driver in Intel(R) i915
        Graphics for Linux before version 5.0 may allow an
        authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of
        privilege via local
        access.(CVE-2019-11085)kernel/sched/fair.c in the Linux
        kernel before 5.3.9, when cpu.cfs_quota_us is used
        (e.g., with Kubernetes), allows attackers to cause a
        denial of service against non-cpu-bound applications by
        generating a workload that triggers unwanted slice
        expiration, aka CID-de53fd7aedb1. (In other words,
        although this slice expiration would typically be seen
        with benign workloads, it is possible that an attacker
        could calculate how many stray requests are required to
        force an entire Kubernetes cluster into a
        low-performance state caused by slice expiration, and
        ensure that a DDoS attack sent that number of stray
        requests. An attack does not affect the stability of
        the kernel it only causes mismanagement of application
        execution.)(CVE-2019-19922)The evm_verify_hmac function
        in security/integrity/evm/evm_main.c in the Linux
        kernel before 4.5 does not properly copy data, which
        makes it easier for local users to forge MAC values via
        a timing side-channel attack.(CVE-2016-2085)The
        pcpu_embed_first_chunk function in mm/percpu.c in the
        Linux kernel through 4.14.14 allows local users to
        obtain sensitive address information by reading dmesg
        data from a 'pages/cpu' printk call.(CVE-2018-5995)TSX
        Asynchronous Abort condition on some CPUs utilizing
        speculative execution may allow an authenticated user
        to potentially enable information disclosure via a side
        channel with local access.(CVE-2019-11135)An issue was
        discovered in drivers/scsi/aacraid/commctrl.c in the
        Linux kernel before 4.13. There is potential exposure
        of kernel stack memory because aac_send_raw_srb does
        not initialize the reply structure.(CVE-2017-18549)An
        issue was discovered in drivers/scsi/aacraid/commctrl.c
        in the Linux kernel before 4.13. There is potential
        exposure of kernel stack memory because
        aac_get_hba_info does not initialize the hbainfo
        structure.(CVE-2017-18550)In the Linux kernel through
        4.15.4, the floppy driver reveals the addresses of
        kernel functions and global variables using printk
        calls within the function show_floppy in
        drivers/block/floppy.c. An attacker can read this
        information from dmesg and use the addresses to find
        the locations of kernel code and data and bypass kernel
        security protections such as KASLR.(CVE-2018-7273)A
        heap-based buffer overflow was discovered in the Linux
        kernel, all versions 3.x.x and 4.x.x before 4.18.0, in
        Marvell WiFi chip driver. The flaw could occur when the
        station attempts a connection negotiation during the
        handling of the remote devices country settings. This
        could allow the remote device to cause a denial of
        service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary
        code.(CVE-2019-14895)The Linux kernel before 5.4.1 on
        powerpc allows Information Exposure because the
        Spectre-RSB mitigation is not in place for all
        applicable CPUs, aka CID-39e72bf96f58. This is related
        to arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_64.S and
        arch/powerpc/kernel/security.c.(CVE-2019-18660)In the
        Linux kernel 5.0.21, mounting a crafted ext4 filesystem
        image, performing some operations, and unmounting can
        lead to a use-after-free in ext4_put_super in
        fs/ext4/super.c, related to dump_orphan_list in
        fs/ext4/super.c.(CVE-2019-19447)In the Linux kernel
        through 5.4.6, there is a NULL pointer dereference in
        drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_discover.c because of
        mishandling of port disconnection during discovery,
        related to a PHY down race condition, aka
        CID-f70267f379b5.(CVE-2019-19965)In the Linux kernel
        before 5.1.6, there is a use-after-free in cpia2_exit()
        in drivers/media/usb/cpia2/cpia2_v4l.c that will cause
        denial of service, aka
        CID-dea37a972655.(CVE-2019-19966)An exploitable
        denial-of-service vulnerability exists in the Linux
        kernel prior to mainline 5.3. An attacker could exploit
        this vulnerability by triggering AP to send IAPP
        location updates for stations before the required
        authentication process has completed. This could lead
        to different denial-of-service scenarios, either by
        causing CAM table attacks, or by leading to traffic
        flapping if faking already existing clients in other
        nearby APs of the same wireless infrastructure. An
        attacker can forge Authentication and Association
        Request packets to trigger this
        vulnerability.(CVE-2019-5108)mwifiex_tm_cmd in
        drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/cfg80211.c in the
        Linux kernel before 5.1.6 has some error-handling cases
        that did not free allocated hostcmd memory, aka
        CID-003b686ace82. This will cause a memory leak and
        denial of service.(CVE-2019-20095)

    descriptionAccording to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities : - drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_display.c in the Linux kernel 5.2.14 does not check the alloc_workqueue return value, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. NOTE: A third-party software maintainer states that the work queue allocation is happening during device initialization, which for a graphics card occurs during boot. It is not attacker controllable and OOM at that time is highly unlikely.(CVE-2019-16230) - In the Linux kernel 5.4.0-rc2, there is a use-after-free (read) in the __blk_add_trace function in kernel/trace/blktrace.c (which is used to fill out a blk_io_trace structure and place it in a per-cpu sub-buffer).(CVE-2019-19768) - A flaw was discovered in the way that the KVM hypervisor handled instruction emulation for an L2 guest when nested virtualisation is enabled. Under some circumstances, an L2 guest may trick the L0 guest into accessing sensitive L1 resources that should be inaccessible to the L2 guest.(CVE-2020-2732) - There is a use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel through 5.5.2 in the vc_do_resize function in drivers/tty/vt/vt.c.(CVE-2020-8647) - There is a use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel through 5.5.2 in the n_tty_receive_buf_common function in drivers/tty/n_tty.c.(CVE-2020-8648) - There is a use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel through 5.5.2 in the vgacon_invert_region function in drivers/video/console/vgacon.c.(CVE-2020-8649) - ext4_protect_reserved_inode in fs/ext4/block_validity.c in the Linux kernel through 5.5.3 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (soft lockup) via a crafted journal size.(CVE-2020-8992) - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.5.6. set_fdc in drivers/block/floppy.c leads to a wait_til_ready out-of-bounds read because the FDC index is not checked for errors before assigning it, aka CID-2e90ca68b0d2.(CVE-2020-9383) - In kernel/compat.c in the Linux kernel before 3.17, as used in Google Chrome OS and other products, there is a possible out-of-bounds read. restart_syscall uses uninitialized data when restarting compat_sys_nanosleep. NOTE: this is disputed because the code path is unreachable.(CVE-2014-3180) - A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel, version kernel-2.6.32, in Marvell WiFi chip driver. A remote attacker could cause a denial of service (system crash) or, possibly execute arbitrary code, when the lbs_ibss_join_existing function is called after a STA connects to an AP.(CVE-2019-14896) - A stack-based buffer overflow was found in the Linux kernel, version kernel-2.6.32, in Marvell WiFi chip driver.

    descriptionAccording to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities : - The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz), the core of any Linux operating system. The kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system: memory allocation, process allocation, device input and output, etc.Security Fix(es):In the Linux kernel 4.19.83, there is a use-after-free (read) in the debugfs_remove function in fs/debugfs/inode.c (which is used to remove a file or directory in debugfs that was previously created with a call to another debugfs function such as debugfs_create_file).(CVE-2019-19770)mwifiex_tm_cmd in driverset/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/cfg80211.c in the Linux kernel before 5.1.6 has some error-handling cases that did not free allocated hostcmd memory, aka CID-003b686ace82. This will cause a memory leak and denial of service.(CVE-2019-20095)TSX Asynchronous Abort condition on some CPUs utilizing speculative execution may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via a side channel with local access.(CVE-2019-11135)A memory leak in the crypto_report() function in crypto/crypto_user_base.c in the Linux kernel through 5.3.11 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering crypto_report_alg() failures, aka CID-ffdde5932042.(CVE-2019-19062)In the Linux kernel before 5.1.6, there is a use-after-free in serial_ir_init_module() in drivers/media/rc/serial_ir.c.(CVE-2019-19543)In the Linux kernel through 5.4.6, there is a NULL pointer dereference in drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_discover.c because of mishandling of port disconnection during discovery, related to a PHY down race condition, aka CID-f70267f379b5.(CVE-2019-19965)In the Linux kernel before 5.1.6, there is a use-after-free in cpia2_exit() in drivers/media/usb/cpia2/cpia2_v4l.c that will cause denial of service, aka CID-dea37a972655.(CVE-2019-19966)An issue was discovered in drivers/xen/balloon.c in the Linux kernel before 5.2.3, as used in Xen through 4.12.x, allowing guest OS users to cause a denial of service because of unrestricted resource consumption during the mapping of guest memory, aka CID-6ef36ab967c7.(CVE-2019-17351)A memory leak in the crypto_reportstat() function in drivers/virt/vboxguest/vboxguest_utils.c in the Linux kernel before 5.3.9 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering copy_form_user() failures, aka CID-e0b0cb938864.(CVE-2019-19048)kernel/sched/fair.c in the Linux kernel before 5.3.9, when cpu.cfs_quota_us is used (e.g., with Kubernetes), allows attackers to cause a denial of service against non-cpu-bound applications by generating a workload that triggers unwanted slice expiration, aka CID-de53fd7aedb1. (In other words, although this slice expiration would typically be seen with benign workloads, it is possible that an attacker could calculate how many stray requests are required to force an entire Kubernetes cluster into a low-performance state caused by slice expiration, and ensure that a DDoS attack sent that number of stray requests. An attack does not affect the stability of the kernel it only causes mismanagement of application execution.)(CVE-2019-19922)An out-of-bounds memory write issue was found in the Linux Kernel, version 3.13 through 5.4, in the way the Linux kernel

    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. An attacker able to mount such a volume could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly for privilege escalation. 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. A local user able to trigger removal of block devices could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (crash) or for privilege escalation. CVE-2019-20636 The syzbot tool found that the input subsystem did not fully validate keycode changes, which could result in a heap out-of-bounds write. A local user permitted to access the device node for an input or VT device could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or for privilege escalation. CVE-2020-0009 Jann Horn reported that the Android ashmem driver did not prevent read-only files from being memory-mapped and then remapped as read-write. However, Android drivers are not enabled in Debian kernel configurations. CVE-2020-0543 Researchers at VU Amsterdam discovered that on some Intel CPUs supporting the RDRAND and RDSEED instructions, part of a random value generated by these instructions may be used in a later speculative execution on any core of the same physical CPU. Depending on how these instructions are used by applications, a local user or VM guest could use this to obtain sensitive information such as cryptographic keys from other users or VMs. This vulnerability can be mitigated by a microcode update, either as part of system firmware (BIOS) or through the intel-microcode package in Debian

CVE-2019-14901: A heap overflow flaw was found in the Linux kernel in Marvell WiFi chip driver. The vulnerability allowed a remote attacker to cause a system crash, resulting in a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code. The highest threat with this vulnerability is with the availability of the system. If code execution occurs, the code will run with the permissions of root. This will affect both confidentiality and integrity of files on the system (bnc#1157042). CVE-2019-14895: Fixed a heap-based buffer overflow in the Marvell WiFi chip driver. The flaw could occur when the station attempts a connection negotiation during the handling of the remote devices country settings. This could allow the remote device to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code (bnc#1157158). CVE-2019-18660: Fixed a information disclosure on powerpc related to the Spectre-RSB mitigation.
