Multiple integer overflows in Alchemy LCD frame-buffer drivers in the Linux kernel before 3.12 allow local users to create a read-write memory mapping for the entirety of kernel memory, and consequently gain privileges, via crafted mmap operations, related to the (1) au1100fb_fb_mmap function in drivers/video/au1100fb.c and the (2) au1200fb_fb_mmap function in drivers/video/au1200fb.c.

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 :

  - 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):Use-after-free     vulnerability in driverset/tun.c in the Linux kernel     through 3.11.1 allows local users to gain privileges by     leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability and providing     an invalid tuntap interface name in a TUNSETIFF ioctl     call.(CVE-2013-4343)It was found that when the gcc     stack protector was enabled, reading the /proc/keys     file could cause a panic in the Linux kernel due to     stack corruption. This happened because an incorrect     buffer size was used to hold a 64-bit timeout value     rendered as weeks.(CVE-2016-7042)A flaw was found in     the Linux kernel that fs/ocfs2/aops.c omits use of a     semaphore and consequently has a race condition for     access to the extent tree during read operations in     DIRECT mode. This allows local users to cause a denial     of service by modifying a certain e_cpos     field.(CVE-2017-18224)The sctp_v6_create_accept_sk     function in net/sctp/ipv6.c in the Linux kernel     mishandles inheritance, which allows local users to     cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified     other impact via crafted system calls, a related issue     to CVE-2017-8890. An unprivileged local user could use     this flaw 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 we believe it is unlikely.(CVE-2017-9075)In     the function sbusfb_ioctl_helper() in     drivers/video/fbdev/sbuslib.c in the Linux kernel, up     to and including 4.15, an integer signedness error     allows arbitrary information leakage for the     FBIOPUTCMAP_SPARC and FBIOGETCMAP_SPARC     commands.(CVE-2018-6412)A race condition flaw was found     in the way the Linux kernel's mmap(2), madvise(2), and     fallocate(2) system calls interacted with each other     while operating on virtual memory file system files. A     local user could use this flaw to cause a denial of     service.(CVE-2014-4171)** RESERVED ** This candidate     has been reserved by an organization or individual that     will use it when announcing a new security problem.
    When the candidate has been publicized, the details for     this candidate will be provided.(CVE-2018-1095)A NULL     pointer dereference flaw was found in the way the Linux     kernel's Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP)     implementation handled simultaneous connections between     the same hosts. A remote attacker could use this flaw     to crash the system.(CVE-2014-5077)A vulnerability was     found in the fs/inode.c:inode_init_owner() function     logic of the LInux kernel that allows local users to     create files with an unintended group ownership and     with group execution and SGID permission bits set, in a     scenario where a directory is SGID and belongs to a     certain group and is writable by a user who is not a     member of this group. This can lead to excessive     permissions granted in case when they should     not.(CVE-2018-13405)In the Linux kernel before 4.20.8,     kvm_ioctl_create_device in virt/kvm/kvm_main.c     mishandles reference counting because of a race     condition, leading to a use-after-free.(CVE-2019-6974)A     flaw was found in the way Linux kernel allocates heap     memory to build the scattergather list from a fragment     list(skb_shinfo(skb)-i1/4zfrag_list) in the socket     buffer(skb_buff). The heap overflow occurred if     'MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 1' parameter and 'NETIF_F_FRAGLIST'     feature are both used together. A remote user or     process could use this flaw to potentially escalate     their privilege on a system.(CVE-2017-7477)Multiple     integer overflows in Alchemy LCD frame-buffer drivers     in the Linux kernel before 3.12 allow local users to     create a read-write memory mapping for the entirety of     kernel memory, and consequently gain privileges, via     crafted mmap operations, related to the (1)     au1100fb_fb_mmap function in drivers/video/au1100fb.c     and the (2) au1200fb_fb_mmap function in     drivers/video/au1200fb.c.(CVE-2013-4511)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)An issue was discovered in     the Linux kernel before 4.19.3. crypto_report_one() and     related functions in crypto/crypto_user.c (the crypto     user configuration API) do not fully initialize     structures that are copied to userspace, potentially     leaking sensitive memory to user programs. NOTE: this     is a CVE-2013-2547 regression but with easier     exploitability because the attacker does not need a     capability (however, the system must have the     CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER kconfig option).(CVE-2018-19854)The     userfaultfd implementation in the Linux kernel before     4.19.7 mishandles access control for certain UFFDIO_     ioctl calls, as demonstrated by allowing local users to     write data into holes in a tmpfs file (if the user has     read-only access to that file, and that file contains     holes), related to fs/userfaultfd.c and     mm/userfaultfd.c.(CVE-2018-18397)The TCP stack in the     Linux kernel through 4.10.6 mishandles the     SCM_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS feature, which allows local     users to obtain sensitive information from the kernel's     internal socket data structures or cause a denial of     service (out-of-bounds read) via crafted system calls,     related to net/core/skbuff.c and     net/socket.c.(CVE-2017-7277)A flaw was found in the way     the Linux kernel's vhost driver treated userspace     provided log file descriptor when processing the     VHOST_SET_LOG_FD ioctl command. The file descriptor was     never released and continued to consume kernel memory.
    A privileged local user with access to the     /dev/vhost-net files could use this flaw to create a     denial-of-service attack.(CVE-2015-6252)A buffer     overflow flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's     virtio-net subsystem handled certain fraglists when the     GRO (Generic Receive Offload) functionality was enabled     in a bridged network configuration. An attacker on the     local network could potentially use this flaw to crash     the system, or, although unlikely, elevate their     privileges on the system.(CVE-2015-5156)The MSM QDSP6     audio driver (aka sound 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 gain privileges or cause     a denial of service (integer overflow, and buffer     overflow or buffer over-read) via a crafted application     that performs a (1) AUDIO_EFFECTS_WRITE or (2)     AUDIO_EFFECTS_READ operation, aka Qualcomm internal bug     CR1006609.(CVE-2016-2068)The icmp6_send function in     net/ipv6/icmp.c in the Linux kernel through 4.8.12     omits a certain check of the dst data structure which     allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (panic) via a fragmented IPv6 packet.(CVE-2016-9919)

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 Service Pack 2 kernel was updated to 3.0.101 and also includes various other bug and security fixes.

A new feature was added :

  - supported.conf: marked net/netfilter/xt_set as supported     (bnc#851066)(fate#313309) The following security bugs     have been fixed :

  - Array index error in the kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu     function in virt/kvm/kvm_main.c in the KVM subsystem in     the Linux kernel through 3.12.5 allows local users to     gain privileges via a large id value. (bnc#853050).
    (CVE-2013-4587)

  - The KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.12.5     allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial     of service (system crash) via a VAPIC synchronization     operation involving a page-end address. (bnc#853052).
    (CVE-2013-6368)

  - 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. (bnc#853051).
    (CVE-2013-6367)

  - Memory leak in the __kvm_set_memory_region function in     virt/kvm/kvm_main.c in the Linux kernel before 3.9     allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory     consumption) by leveraging certain device access to     trigger movement of memory slots. (bnc#851101).
    (CVE-2013-4592)

  - The lbs_debugfs_write function in     drivers/net/wireless/libertas/debugfs.c in the Linux     kernel through 3.12.1 allows local users to cause a     denial of service (OOPS) by leveraging root privileges     for a zero-length write operation. (bnc#852559).
    (CVE-2013-6378)

  - Multiple buffer overflows in     drivers/staging/wlags49_h2/wl_priv.c in the Linux kernel     before 3.12 allow local users to cause a denial of     service or possibly have unspecified other impact by     leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability and providing a     long station-name string, related to the (1)     wvlan_uil_put_info and (2) wvlan_set_station_nickname     functions. (bnc#849029). (CVE-2013-4514)

  - The bcm_char_ioctl function in     drivers/staging/bcm/Bcmchar.c in the Linux kernel before     3.12 does not initialize a certain data structure, which     allows local users to obtain sensitive information from     kernel memory via an IOCTL_BCM_GET_DEVICE_DRIVER_INFO     ioctl call. (bnc#849034). (CVE-2013-4515)

  - The ieee80211_radiotap_iterator_init function in     net/wireless/radiotap.c in the Linux kernel before     3.11.7 does not check whether a frame contains any data     outside of the header, which might allow attackers to     cause a denial of service (buffer over-read) via a     crafted header. (bnc#854634). (CVE-2013-7027)

  - The ipc_rcu_putref function in ipc/util.c in the Linux     kernel before 3.10 does not properly manage a reference     count, which allows local users to cause a denial of     service (memory consumption or system crash) via a     crafted application. (bnc#848321). (CVE-2013-4483)

  - Multiple integer overflows in Alchemy LCD frame-buffer     drivers in the Linux kernel before 3.12 allow local     users to create a read-write memory mapping for the     entirety of kernel memory, and consequently gain     privileges, via crafted mmap operations, related to the     (1) au1100fb_fb_mmap function in     drivers/video/au1100fb.c and the (2) au1200fb_fb_mmap     function in drivers/video/au1200fb.c.

Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in the Linux kernel :

The Linux kernel before 3.12.2 does not properly use the get_dumpable function, which allows local users to bypass intended ptrace restrictions or obtain sensitive information from IA64 scratch registers via a crafted application, related to kernel/ptrace.c and arch/ia64/include/asm/processor.h (CVE-2013-2929).

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-2013-2930).

Multiple integer overflows in Alchemy LCD frame-buffer drivers in the Linux kernel before 3.12 allow local users to create a read-write memory mapping for the entirety of kernel memory, and consequently gain privileges, via crafted mmap operations, related to the (1) au1100fb_fb_mmap function in drivers/video/au1100fb.c and the (2) au1200fb_fb_mmap function in drivers/video/au1200fb.c (CVE-2013-4511).

Buffer overflow in the exitcode_proc_write function in arch/um/kernel/exitcode.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12 allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging root privileges for a write operation (CVE-2013-4512).

Multiple buffer overflows in drivers/staging/wlags49_h2/wl_priv.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12 allow local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability and providing a long station-name string, related to the (1) wvlan_uil_put_info and (2) wvlan_set_station_nickname functions (CVE-2013-4514).

The bcm_char_ioctl function in drivers/staging/bcm/Bcmchar.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12 does not initialize a certain data structure, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via an IOCTL_BCM_GET_DEVICE_DRIVER_INFO ioctl call (CVE-2013-4515).

Memory leak in the __kvm_set_memory_region function in virt/kvm/kvm_main.c in the Linux kernel before 3.9 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by leveraging certain device access to trigger movement of memory slots (CVE-2013-4592).

The lbs_debugfs_write function in drivers/net/wireless/libertas/debugfs.c in the Linux kernel through 3.12.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) by leveraging root privileges for a zero-length write operation (CVE-2013-6378).

The aac_send_raw_srb function in drivers/scsi/aacraid/commctrl.c in the Linux kernel through 3.12.1 does not properly validate a certain size value, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (invalid pointer dereference) or possibly have unspecified other impact via an FSACTL_SEND_RAW_SRB ioctl call that triggers a crafted SRB command (CVE-2013-6380).

Buffer overflow in the qeth_snmp_command function in drivers/s390/net/qeth_core_main.c in the Linux kernel through 3.12.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via an SNMP ioctl call with a length value that is incompatible with the command-buffer size (CVE-2013-6381).

The aac_compat_ioctl function in drivers/scsi/aacraid/linit.c in the Linux kernel before 3.11.8 does not require the CAP_SYS_RAWIO capability, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions via a crafted ioctl call (CVE-2013-6383).

The uio_mmap_physical function in drivers/uio/uio.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12 does not validate the size of a memory block, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly gain privileges via crafted mmap operations, a different vulnerability than CVE-2013-4511 (CVE-2013-6763).

The updated packages provides a solution for these security issues.

A flaw was discovered in the Linux kernel's KVM (kernel virtual machine). An administrative user in the guest OS could leverage this flaw to cause a denial of service in the host OS. (CVE-2012-2121)

Multiple integer overflow flaws where discovered in the Alchemy LCD frame- buffer drivers in the Linux kernel. An unprivileged local user could exploit this flaw to gain administrative privileges.
(CVE-2013-4511).
