  - The usbvision driver in the Linux kernel package 3.10.0-123.20.1.el7 through 3.10.0-229.14.1.el7 in Red     Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 7.1 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (panic)     via a nonzero bInterfaceNumber value in a USB device descriptor. (CVE-2015-7833)

  - arch/arm64/kernel/sys.c in the Linux kernel before 4.0 allows local users to bypass the 'strict page     permissions' protection mechanism and modify the system-call table, and consequently gain privileges, by     leveraging write access. (CVE-2015-8967)

  - In the Linux kernel before 4.1.4, a buffer overflow occurs when checking userspace params in     drivers/media/dvb-frontends/cx24116.c. The maximum size for a DiSEqC command is 6, according to the     userspace API. However, the code allows larger values such as 23. (CVE-2015-9289)

  - 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 rtnl_fill_link_ifmap function in net/core/rtnetlink.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5.5 does not     initialize a certain data structure, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel     stack memory by reading a Netlink message. (CVE-2016-4486)

  - Race condition in the sclp_ctl_ioctl_sccb function in drivers/s390/char/sclp_ctl.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.6 allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by changing a certain     length value, aka a 'double fetch' vulnerability. (CVE-2016-6130)

  - A buffer overflow flaw was found, in versions from 2.6.34 to 5.2.x, in the way Linux kernel's vhost     functionality that translates virtqueue buffers to IOVs, logged the buffer descriptors during migration. A     privileged guest user able to pass descriptors with invalid length to the host when migration is underway,     could use this flaw to increase their privileges on the host. (CVE-2019-14835)

  - In do_epoll_ctl and ep_loop_check_proc of eventpoll.c, there is a possible use after free due to a logic     error. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed.
    User interaction is not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android kernelAndroid ID:
    A-147802478References: Upstream kernel (CVE-2020-0466)

  - A race condition was found in the Linux kernels implementation of the floppy disk drive controller driver     software. The impact of this issue is lessened by the fact that the default permissions on the floppy     device (/dev/fd0) are restricted to root. If the permissions on the device have changed the impact changes     greatly. In the default configuration root (or equivalent) permissions are required to attack this flaw.
    (CVE-2021-20261)

  - There is a flaw reported in the Linux kernel in versions before 5.9 in     drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau_sgdma.c in nouveau_sgdma_create_ttm in Nouveau DRM subsystem. The issue     results from the lack of validating the existence of an object prior to performing operations on the     object. An attacker with a local account with a root privilege, can leverage this vulnerability to     escalate privileges and execute code in the context of the kernel. (CVE-2021-20292)

  - A heap out-of-bounds write affecting Linux since v2.6.19-rc1 was discovered in net/netfilter/x_tables.c.
    This allows an attacker to gain privileges or cause a DoS (via heap memory corruption) through user name     space (CVE-2021-22555)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.11.3. A kernel pointer leak can be used to determine     the address of the iscsi_transport structure. When an iSCSI transport is registered with the iSCSI     subsystem, the transport's handle is available to unprivileged users via the sysfs file system, at     /sys/class/iscsi_transport/$TRANSPORT_NAME/handle. When read, the show_transport_handle function (in     drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c) is called, which leaks the handle. This handle is actually the     pointer to an iscsi_transport struct in the kernel module's global variables. (CVE-2021-27363)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.11.3. drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c is     adversely affected by the ability of an unprivileged user to craft Netlink messages. (CVE-2021-27364)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.11.3. Certain iSCSI data structures do not have     appropriate length constraints or checks, and can exceed the PAGE_SIZE value. An unprivileged user can     send a Netlink message that is associated with iSCSI, and has a length up to the maximum length of a     Netlink message. (CVE-2021-27365)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.11.3 when a webcam device exists. video_usercopy in     drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-ioctl.c has a memory leak for large arguments, aka CID-fb18802a338b.
    (CVE-2021-30002)

  - ** DISPUTED ** fs/nfsd/nfs3xdr.c in the Linux kernel through 5.10.8, when there is an NFS export of a     subdirectory of a filesystem, allows remote attackers to traverse to other parts of the filesystem via     READDIRPLUS. NOTE: some parties argue that such a subdirectory export is not intended to prevent this     attack; see also the exports(5) no_subtree_check default behavior. (CVE-2021-3178)

  - An out-of-bounds (OOB) memory write flaw was found in list_devices in drivers/md/dm-ioctl.c in the Multi-     device driver module in the Linux kernel before 5.12. A bound check failure allows an attacker with     special user (CAP_SYS_ADMIN) privilege to gain access to out-of-bounds memory leading to a system crash or     a leak of internal kernel information. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system     availability. (CVE-2021-31916)

  - The Linux kernel before 5.11.14 has a use-after-free in cipso_v4_genopt in net/ipv4/cipso_ipv4.c because     the CIPSO and CALIPSO refcounting for the DOI definitions is mishandled, aka CID-ad5d07f4a9cd. This leads     to writing an arbitrary value. (CVE-2021-33033)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.10.11. PI futexes have a kernel stack use-after-free     during fault handling, allowing local users to execute code in the kernel, aka CID-34b1a1ce1458.
    (CVE-2021-3347)

  - fs/seq_file.c in the Linux kernel 3.16 through 5.13.x before 5.13.4 does not properly restrict seq buffer     allocations, leading to an integer overflow, an Out-of-bounds Write, and escalation to root by an     unprivileged user, aka CID-8cae8cd89f05. (CVE-2021-33909)

  - A flaw was found in the Nosy driver in the Linux kernel. This issue allows a device to be inserted twice     into a doubly-linked list, leading to a use-after-free when one of these devices is removed. The highest     threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality, integrity, as well as system availability. Versions     before kernel 5.12-rc6 are affected (CVE-2021-3483)

  - kernel/module.c in the Linux kernel before 5.12.14 mishandles Signature Verification, aka     CID-0c18f29aae7c. Without CONFIG_MODULE_SIG, verification that a kernel module is signed, for loading via     init_module, does not occur for a module.sig_enforce=1 command-line argument. (CVE-2021-35039)

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 ** Multiple     integer overflows in the lzo1x_decompress_safe function     in lib/lzo/lzo1x_decompress_safe.c in the LZO     decompressor in the Linux kernel before 3.15.2 allow     context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of     service (memory corruption) via a crafted Literal Run.
    NOTE: the author of the LZO algorithms says 'the Linux     kernel is *not* affected media hype.'(CVE-2014-4608)A     certain backport in the TCP Fast Open implementation     for the Linux kernel before 3.18 does not properly     maintain a count value, which allow local users to     cause a denial of service (system crash) via the Fast     Open feature, as demonstrated by visiting the     chrome://flags/#enable-tcp-fast-open URL when using     certain 3.10.x through 3.16.x kernel builds, including     longterm-maintenance releases and ckt (aka Canonical     Kernel Team) builds.(CVE-2015-3332)An elevation of     privilege vulnerability in the kernel scsi driver.

There is an out of bounds write in the     function i2c_smbus_xfer_emulated.(CVE-2017-18551)An     issue was discovered in net/ipv6/ip6mr.c in the Linux     kernel before 4.11. By setting a specific socket     option, an attacker can control a pointer in kernel     land and cause an inet_csk_listen_stop general     protection fault, or potentially execute arbitrary code     under certain circumstances. The issue can be triggered     as root (e.g., inside a default LXC container or with     the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability) or after namespace     unsharing. This occurs because sk_type and protocol are     not checked in the appropriate part of the ip6_mroute_*     functions. NOTE: this affects Linux distributions that     use 4.9.x longterm kernels before     4.9.187.(CVE-2017-18509)An issue was discovered in the     Linux kernel before 4.14.11. A double free may be     caused by the function allocate_trace_buffer in the     file kernel/trace/trace.c.(CVE-2017-18595)An issue was     discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.10. There     is a NULL pointer dereference and panic in     hfsplus_lookup() in fs/hfsplus/dir.c when opening a     file (that is purportedly a hard link) in an hfs+     filesystem that has malformed catalog data, and is     mounted read-only without a metadata     directory.(CVE-2018-14617)An issue was discovered in     write_tpt_entry in drivers/infiniband/hw/cxgb4/mem.c in     the Linux kernel through 5.3.2. The cxgb4 driver is     directly calling dma_map_single (a DMA function) from a     stack variable. This could allow an attacker to trigger     a Denial of Service, exploitable if this driver is used     on an architecture for which this stack/DMA interaction     has security relevance.(CVE-2019-17075)Double free     vulnerability in the snd_usbmidi_create function in     sound/usb/midi.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5 allows     physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of     service (panic) or possibly have unspecified other     impact via vectors involving an invalid USB     descriptor.(CVE-2016-2384)fsamespace.c in the Linux     kernel through 3.16.1 does not properly restrict     clearing MNT_NODEV, MNT_NOSUID, and MNT_NOEXEC and     changing MNT_ATIME_MASK during a remount of a bind     mount, which allows local users to gain privileges,     interfere with backups and auditing on systems that had     atime enabled, or cause a denial of service (excessive     filesystem updating) on systems that had atime disabled     via a 'mount -o remount' command within a user     namespace.(CVE-2014-5207)fs/overlayfs/dir.c in the     OverlayFS filesystem implementation in the Linux kernel     before 4.6 does not properly verify the upper dentry     before proceeding with unlink and rename system-call     processing, which allows local users to cause a denial     of service (system crash) via a rename system call that     specifies a self-hardlink.(CVE-2016-6197)In the Linux     kernel before 4.1.4, a buffer overflow occurs when     checking userspace params in     drivers/media/dvb-frontends/cx24116.c. The maximum size     for a DiSEqC command is 6, according to the userspace     API. However, the code allows larger values such as     23.(CVE-2015-9289)In the Linux kernel through 5.3.2,     cfg80211_mgd_wext_giwessid in net/wireless/wext-sme.c     does not reject a long SSID IE, leading to a Buffer     Overflow.(CVE-2019-17133)Insufficient access control in     the Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi Software driver     before version 21.10 may allow an unauthenticated user     to potentially enable denial of service via adjacent     access.(CVE-2019-0136)Linux distributions that have not     patched their long-term kernels with     https://git.kernel.org/linus/a87938b2e246b81b4fb713edb3     71a9fa3c5c3c86 (committed on April 14, 2015). This     kernel vulnerability was fixed in April 2015 by commit     a87938b2e246b81b4fb713edb371a9fa3c5c3c86 (backported to     Linux 3.10.77 in May 2015), but it was not recognized     as a security threat. With     CONFIG_ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE enabled, and a     normal top-down address allocation strategy,     load_elf_binary() will attempt to map a PIE binary into     an address range immediately below mm->mmap_base.
    Unfortunately, load_elf_ binary() does not take account     of the need to allocate sufficient space for the entire     binary which means that, while the first PT_LOAD     segment is mapped below mm->mmap_base, the subsequent     PT_LOAD segment(s) end up being mapped above     mm->mmap_base into the are that is supposed to be the     'gap' between the stack and the     binary.(CVE-2017-1000253)Race condition in the     sclp_ctl_ioctl_sccb function in     drivers/s390/char/sclp_ctl.c in the Linux kernel before     4.6 allows local users to obtain sensitive information     from kernel memory by changing a certain length value,     aka a 'double fetch'     vulnerability.(CVE-2016-6130)rtl_p2p_noa_ie in drivers     et/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/ps.c in the Linux kernel     through 5.3.6 lacks a certain upper-bound check,     leading to a buffer     overflow.(CVE-2019-17666)sound/core/timer.c in the     Linux kernel through 4.6 does not initialize certain r1     data structures, which allows local users to obtain     sensitive information from kernel stack memory via     crafted use of the ALSA timer interface, related to the     (1) snd_timer_user_ccallback and (2)     snd_timer_user_tinterrupt     functions.(CVE-2016-4578)Systems with microprocessors     utilizing speculative execution and branch prediction     may allow unauthorized disclosure of information to an     attacker with local user access via a side-channel     analysis.(CVE-2017-5753)The acm_probe function in     drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.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 USB device without both a control and a     data endpoint descriptor.(CVE-2016-3138)The     arcmsr_iop_message_xfer function in     drivers/scsi/arcmsr/arcmsr_hba.c in the Linux kernel     through 4.8.2 does not restrict a certain length field,     which allows local users to gain privileges or cause a     denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) via an     ARCMSR_MESSAGE_WRITE_WQBUFFER control     code.(CVE-2016-7425)The ati_remote2_probe function in     drivers/input/misc/ati_remote2.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-2016-2185)The     create_fixed_stream_quirk function in     sound/usb/quirks.c in the snd-usb-audio driver in the     Linux kernel before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate     attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference or double free, and system crash) via a     crafted endpoints value in a USB device     descriptor.(CVE-2016-2184)The digi_port_init function     in drivers/usb/serial/digi_acceleport.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-2016-3140)The     do_remount function in fsamespace.c in the Linux kernel     through 3.16.1 does not maintain the MNT_LOCK_READONLY     bit across a remount of a bind mount, which allows     local users to bypass an intended read-only restriction     and defeat certain sandbox protection mechanisms via a     'mount -o remount' command within a user     namespace.(CVE-2014-5206)The gtco_probe function in     drivers/input/tablet/gtco.c in the Linux kernel through     4.5.2 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-2016-2187)The hub_activate function in     drivers/usb/core/hub.c in the Linux kernel before 4.3.5     does not properly maintain a hub-interface data     structure, which allows physically proximate attackers     to cause a denial of service (invalid memory access and     system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact     by unplugging a USB hub device.(CVE-2015-8816)The     ims_pcu_parse_cdc_data function in     drivers/input/misc/ims-pcu.c in the Linux kernel before     4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a     denial of service (system crash) via a USB device     without both a master and a slave     interface.(CVE-2016-3689)The Linux Kernel running on     AMD64 systems will sometimes map the contents of PIE     executable, the heap or ld.so to where the stack is     mapped allowing attackers to more easily manipulate the     stack.

  - The ext2 filesystem got reenabled and supported to allow     support for 'XIP' (Execute In Place) (FATE#320805). The     following security bugs were fixed :

  - CVE-2017-5551: The tmpfs filesystem implementation in     the Linux kernel preserved the setgid bit during a     setxattr call, which allowed local users to gain group     privileges by leveraging the existence of a setgid     program with restrictions on execute permissions     (bsc#1021258).

  - CVE-2016-7097: The filesystem implementation in the     Linux kernel preserved the setgid bit during a setxattr     call, which allowed local users to gain group privileges     by leveraging the existence of a setgid program with     restrictions on execute permissions (bnc#995968).

  - CVE-2017-2583: A Linux kernel built with the     Kernel-based Virtual Machine (CONFIG_KVM) support was     vulnerable to an incorrect segment selector(SS) value     error. A user/process inside guest could have used this     flaw to crash the guest resulting in DoS or potentially     escalate their privileges inside guest. (bsc#1020602).

  - CVE-2017-2584: arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux     kernel allowed local users to obtain sensitive     information from kernel memory or cause a denial of     service (use-after-free) via a crafted application that     leverages instruction emulation for fxrstor, fxsave,     sgdt, and sidt (bnc#1019851).

  - CVE-2016-10088: The sg implementation in the Linux     kernel did not properly restrict write operations in     situations where the KERNEL_DS option is set, which     allowed local users to read or write to arbitrary kernel     memory locations or cause a denial of service     (use-after-free) by leveraging access to a /dev/sg     device, related to block/bsg.c and drivers/scsi/sg.c.
    NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete     fix for CVE-2016-9576 (bnc#1017710).

  - CVE-2016-8645: The TCP stack in the Linux kernel     mishandled skb truncation, which allowed local users to     cause a denial of service (system crash) via a crafted     application that made sendto system calls, related to     net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c and net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c     (bnc#1009969).

  - CVE-2016-8399: An elevation of privilege vulnerability     in the kernel networking subsystem could enable a local     malicious application to execute arbitrary code within     the context of the kernel. This issue is rated as     Moderate because it first requires compromising a     privileged process and current compiler optimizations     restrict access to the vulnerable code. Product:
    Android. Versions: Kernel-3.10, Kernel-3.18. Android ID:
