  - A vulnerability was found in Linux kernel. There is an     information leak in file 'sound/core/timer.c' of the     latest mainline Linux kernel, the stack object     aEURoetreadaEUR has a total size of 32 bytes. It contains a     8-bytes padding, which is not initialized but sent to     user via copy_to_user(), resulting a kernel     leak.(CVE-2016-4569i1/4%0

  - The dgram_recvmsg function in net/ieee802154/dgram.c in     the Linux kernel before 3.12.4 updates a certain length     value without ensuring that an associated data     structure has been initialized, which allows local     users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack     memory via a (1) recvfrom, (2) recvmmsg, or (3) recvmsg     system call.(CVE-2013-7281i1/4%0

The flaw involves a system with     an unusually low MTU (60) on networking devices     configured as bearers for the TIPC protocol. An     attacker could create a packet which will overwrite     memory outside of allocated space and allow for     privilege escalation.(CVE-2016-8632i1/4%0

  - An issue was discovered in the XFS filesystem in     fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_inode_buf.c in the Linux kernel.

In a     nested visualization setup, L2 guest user could use     this flaw to potentially crash the host(L0) resulting     in DoS.(CVE-2017-12154i1/4%0

  - The do_double_fault function in arch/x86/kernel/traps.c     in the Linux kernel through 3.17.4 does not properly     handle faults associated with the Stack Segment (SS)     segment register, which allows local users to cause a     denial of service (panic) via a modify_ldt system call,     as demonstrated by sigreturn_32 in the     linux-clock-tests test suite.(CVE-2014-9090i1/4%0

  - A race condition flaw was found in the way the Linux     kernel's mac80211 subsystem implementation handled     synchronization between TX and STA wake-up code paths.
    A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash the     system.(CVE-2014-2706i1/4%0

  - The snd_seq_ioctl_remove_events function in     sound/core/seq/seq_clientmgr.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.4.1 does not verify FIFO assignment before     proceeding with FIFO clearing, which allows local users     to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference     and OOPS) via a crafted ioctl call.(CVE-2016-2543i1/4%0

  - 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-2016-2187i1/4%0

  - An integer overflow flaw was found in the Linux     kernel's create_elf_tables() function. An unprivileged     local user with access to SUID (or otherwise     privileged) binary could use this flaw to escalate     their privileges on the system.(CVE-2018-14634i1/4%0

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in the Netlink     functionality of the Linux kernel networking subsystem.
    Due to the insufficient cleanup in the mq_notify     function, a local attacker could potentially use this     flaw to escalate their privileges on the     system.(CVE-2017-11176i1/4%0

  - Array index error in the aio_read_events_ring function     in fs/aio.c in the Linux kernel through 3.15.1 allows     local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel     memory via a large head value.(CVE-2014-0206i1/4%0

  - arch/arm/kernel/sys_oabi-compat.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.4 allows local users to gain privileges via a     crafted (1) F_OFD_GETLK, (2) F_OFD_SETLK, or (3)     F_OFD_SETLKW command in an fcntl64 system     call.(CVE-2015-8966i1/4%0

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through     4.17.2. The filter parsing in     kernel/trace/trace_events_filter.c could be called with     no filter, which is an N=0 case when it expected at     least one line to have been read, thus making the N-1     index invalid. This allows attackers to cause a denial     of service (slab out-of-bounds write) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via crafted perf_event_open     and mmap system calls.(CVE-2018-12714i1/4%0

  - CVE-2017-17448: net/netfilter/nfnetlink_cthelper.c in     the Linux kernel did not require the CAP_NET_ADMIN     capability for new, get, and del operations, which     allowed local users to bypass intended access     restrictions because the nfnl_cthelper_list data     structure is shared across all net namespaces     (bnc#1071693).

  - CVE-2017-17449: The __netlink_deliver_tap_skb function     in net/netlink/af_netlink.c in the Linux kernel did not     restrict observations of Netlink messages to a single     net namespace, which allowed local users to obtain     sensitive information by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN     capability to sniff an nlmon interface for all Netlink     activity on the system (bnc#1071694).

  - CVE-2017-17450: net/netfilter/xt_osf.c in the Linux     kernel did not require the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for     add_callback and remove_callback operations, which     allowed local users to bypass intended access     restrictions because the xt_osf_fingers data structure     is shared across all net namespaces (bnc#1071695).

  - CVE-2017-7482: Fixed an overflow when decoding a krb5     principal. (bnc#1046107).

  - CVE-2017-8824: The dccp_disconnect function in     net/dccp/proto.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users     to gain privileges or cause a denial of service     (use-after-free) via an AF_UNSPEC connect system call     during the DCCP_LISTEN state (bnc#1070771).

The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

A flaw was found in the patches used to fix the 'dirtycow' vulnerability (CVE-2016-5195). An attacker, able to run local code, can exploit a race condition in transparent huge pages to modify usually read-only huge pages. (CVE-2017-1000405)

Linux kernel Virtualization Module (CONFIG_KVM) for the Intel processor family (CONFIG_KVM_INTEL) is vulnerable to a DoS issue. It could occur if a guest was to flood the I/O port 0x80 with write requests. A guest user could use this flaw to crash the host kernel resulting in DoS. (CVE-2017-1000407)

A BUG in drivers/net/usb/asix_devices.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.11 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device. (CVE-2017-16647)

A BUG in drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb/dib0700_devices.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.11 allows local users to cause a denial of service (BUG and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device. (CVE-2017-16646)

The ims_pcu_get_cdc_union_desc function in drivers/input/misc/ims-pcu.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.11 allows local users to cause a denial of service (ims_pcu_parse_cdc_data out-of-bounds read and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device.
(CVE-2017-16645)

The parse_hid_report_descriptor function in drivers/input/tablet/gtco.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.11 allows local users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device. (CVE-2017-16643)

The walk_hugetlb_range() function in 'mm/pagewalk.c' file in the Linux kernel from v4.0-rc1 through v4.15-rc1 mishandles holes in hugetlb ranges. This allows local users to obtain sensitive information from uninitialized kernel memory via crafted use of the mincore() system call. (CVE-2017-16994)

The qmi_wwan_bind function in drivers/net/usb/qmi_wwan.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.11 allows local users to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero error and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device. (CVE-2017-16650)

The usbnet_generic_cdc_bind function in drivers/net/usb/cdc_ether.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.11 allows local users to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero error and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device. (CVE-2017-16649)

A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel when peeling off an association to the socket in another network namespace. All transports in this association are not to be rehashed and keep using the old key in hashtable, thus removing transports from hashtable when closing the socket, all transports are being freed. Later on a use-after-free issue could be caused when looking up an association and dereferencing the transports. (CVE-2017-15115)
