An issue was discovered in yurex_read in drivers/usb/misc/yurex.c in the Linux kernel before 4.17.7. Local attackers could use user access read/writes with incorrect bounds checking in the yurex USB driver to crash the kernel or potentially escalate privileges.

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):A flaw was found in Linux     kernel in the ext4 filesystem code. A use-after-free is     possible in ext4_ext_remove_space() function when     mounting and operating a crafted ext4     image.(CVE-2018-10876)A flaw was found in the Linux     kernel. A use-after-free was found in the way the     console subsystem was using ioctls KDGKBSENT and     KDSKBSENT. A local user could use this flaw to get read     memory access out of bounds. The highest threat from     this vulnerability is to data     confidentiality.(CVE-2020-25656)A flaw was found in the     way RTAS handled memory accesses in userspace to kernel     communication. On a locked down (usually due to Secure     Boot) guest system running on top of PowerVM or KVM     hypervisors (pseries platform) a root like local user     could use this flaw to further increase their     privileges to that of a running     kernel.(CVE-2020-27777)A information disclosure     vulnerability in the Upstream kernel encrypted-keys.
    Product: Android. Versions: Android kernel. Android ID:
    A-70526974.(CVE-2017-13305)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)An issue     was discovered in dlpar_parse_cc_property in     arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/dlpar.c in the Linux     kernel through 5.1.6. There is an unchecked kstrdup of     prop->name, which might allow an attacker to cause a     denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system     crash).(CVE-2019-12614)An issue was discovered in     fs/xfs/xfs_icache.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3.
    There is a NULL pointer dereference and panic in     lookup_slow() on a NULL inode->i_ops pointer when doing     pathwalks on a corrupted xfs image. This occurs because     of a lack of proper validation that cached inodes are     free during allocation.(CVE-2018-13093)An issue was     discovered in rds_tcp_kill_sock in net/rds/tcp.c in the     Linux kernel before 5.0.8. There is a race condition     leading to a use-after-free, related to net namespace     cleanup.(CVE-2019-11815)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. 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 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 yurex_read in drivers/usb/misc/yurex.c in     the Linux kernel before 4.17.7. Local attackers could     use user access read/writes with incorrect bounds     checking in the yurex USB driver to crash the kernel or     potentially escalate     privileges.(CVE-2018-16276)drivers/infiniband/core/ucma     .c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.11 allows     ucma_leave_multicast to access a certain data structure     after a cleanup step in ucma_process_join, which allows     attackers to cause a denial of service     (use-after-free).(CVE-2018-14734)In create_pinctrl of     core.c, there is a possible out of bounds read due to a     use after free. This could lead to local information     disclosure with no additional execution privileges     needed. User interaction is not needed for     exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android     kernelAndroid ID: A-140550171(CVE-2020-0427)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 the size-remaining variable     wrapping and the data pointer going over the end of the     buffer. This could possibly lead to memory corruption     and possible privilege escalation.(CVE-2017-7482)In     uvc_scan_chain_forward of uvc_driver.c, there is a     possible linked list corruption due to an unusual root     cause.

This flaw allows a local attacker     with the ability to set extended attributes to panic     the system, causing memory corruption or escalating     privileges. The highest threat from this vulnerability     is to confidentiality, integrity, as well as system     availability.(CVE-2020-27815)An out-of-bounds (OOB)     memory access flaw was found in x25_bind in     net/x25/af_x25.c in the Linux kernel. A bounds check     failure allows a local attacker with a user account on     the system 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 confidentiality, integrity, as well as system     availability.(CVE-2020-35519)In     drivers/pci/hotplug/rpadlpar_sysfs.c in the Linux     kernel through 5.11.8, the RPA PCI Hotplug driver has a     user-tolerable buffer overflow when writing a new     device name to the driver from userspace, allowing     userspace to write data to the kernel stack frame     directly.

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 hid_input_field() function in     'drivers/hid/hid-core.c' in the Linux kernel before 4.6     allows physically proximate attackers to obtain     sensitive information from kernel memory or cause a     denial of service (out-of-bounds read) by connecting a     device.(CVE-2016-7915i1/4%0

  - The Linux kernel, before version 4.14.2, is vulnerable     to a deadlock caused by     fs/ocfs2/file.c:ocfs2_setattr(), as the function does     not wait for DIO requests before locking the inode.
    This can be exploited by local users to cause a     subsequent denial of service.(CVE-2017-18204i1/4%0

  - The vmw_gb_surface_define_ioctl function (accessible     via DRM_IOCTL_VMW_GB_SURFACE_CREATE) in     drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_surface.c in the Linux     kernel through 4.11.4 defines a backup_handle variable     but does not give it an initial value. If one attempts     to create a GB surface, with a previously allocated DMA     buffer to be used as a backup buffer, the backup_handle     variable does not get written to and is then later     returned to user space, allowing local users to obtain     sensitive information from uninitialized kernel memory     via a crafted ioctl call.(CVE-2017-9605i1/4%0

  - Use-after-free vulnerability in the nfqnl_zcopy     function in net/netfilter/nfnetlink_queue_core.c in the     Linux kernel through 3.13.6 allows attackers to obtain     sensitive information from kernel memory by leveraging     the absence of a certain orphaning operation. NOTE: the     affected code was moved to the skb_zerocopy function in     net/core/skbuff.c before the vulnerability was     announced.(CVE-2014-2568i1/4%0

  - It was found that the Linux kernel's ISO file system     implementation did not correctly limit the traversal of     Rock Ridge extension Continuation Entries (CE). An     attacker with physical access to the system could use     this flaw to trigger an infinite loop in the kernel,     resulting in a denial of service.(CVE-2014-9420i1/4%0

  - An integer overflow vulnerability was found in the     ring_buffer_resize() calculations in which a privileged     user can adjust the size of the ringbuffer message     size. These calculations can create an issue where the     kernel memory allocator will not allocate the correct     count of pages yet expect them to be usable. This can     lead to the ftrace() output to appear to corrupt kernel     memory and possibly be used for privileged escalation     or more likely kernel panic.(CVE-2016-9754i1/4%0

  - A symlink size validation was missing in Linux kernels     built with UDF file system (CONFIG_UDF_FS) support,     allowing the corruption of kernel memory. An attacker     able to mount a corrupted/malicious UDF file system     image could cause the kernel to crash.(CVE-2014-9730i1/4%0

  - In was found that in the Linux kernel, in     vmw_surface_define_ioctl() function in     'drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_surface.c' file, a     'num_sizes' parameter is assigned a user-controlled     value which is not checked if it is zero. This is used     in a call to kmalloc() and later leads to dereferencing     ZERO_SIZE_PTR, which in turn leads to a GPF and     possibly to a kernel panic.(CVE-2017-7261i1/4%0

  - A race condition flaw was found in the way the Linux     kernel keys management subsystem performed key garbage     collection. A local attacker could attempt accessing a     key while it was being garbage collected, which would     cause the system to crash.(CVE-2014-9529i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation     of i8042 serial ports. An attacker could cause a kernel     panic if they are able to add and remove devices as the     module is loaded.(CVE-2017-18079i1/4%0

  - drivers/hid/hid-pl.c in the Human Interface Device     (HID) subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.11, when     CONFIG_HID_PANTHERLORD is enabled, allows physically     proximate attackers to cause a denial of service     (heap-based out-of-bounds write) via a crafted     device.(CVE-2013-2892i1/4%0

  - The __clear_user function in     arch/arm64/lib/clear_user.S in the Linux kernel before     3.17.4 on the ARM64 platform allows local users to     cause a denial of service (system crash) by reading one     byte beyond a /dev/zero page boundary.(CVE-2014-7843i1/4%0

  - A divide-by-zero vulnerability was found in a way the     kernel processes TCP connections. The error can occur     if a connection starts another cwnd reduction phase by     setting tp-i1/4zprior_cwnd to the current cwnd (0) in     tcp_init_cwnd_reduction(). A remote, unauthenticated     attacker could use this flaw to crash the kernel     (denial of service).(CVE-2016-2070i1/4%0

  - The adjust_branches function in kernel/bpf/verifier.c     in the Linux kernel before 4.5 does not consider the     delta in the backward-jump case, which allows local     users to obtain sensitive information from kernel     memory by creating a packet filter and then loading     crafted BPF instructions.(CVE-2016-2383i1/4%0

  - System using the infiniband support module ib_srpt were     vulnerable to a denial of service by system crash by a     local attacker who is able to abort writes to a device     using this initiator.(CVE-2016-6327i1/4%0

  - A security flaw was found in the Linux kernel in the     mark_source_chains() function in     'net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.c'. It is possible for a     user-supplied 'ipt_entry' structure to have a large     'next_offset' field. This field is not bounds checked     prior to writing to a counter value at the supplied     offset.(CVE-2016-3134i1/4%0

  - An out-of-bounds access issue was discovered in     yurex_read() in drivers/usb/misc/yurex.c in the Linux     kernel. A local attacker could use user access     read/writes with incorrect bounds checking in the yurex     USB driver to crash the kernel or potentially escalate     privileges.(CVE-2018-16276i1/4%0

  - drivers/media/v4l2-core/videobuf2-v4l2.c in the Linux     kernel before 4.5.3 allows local users to cause a     denial of service (kernel memory write operation) or     possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted     number of planes in a VIDIOC_DQBUF ioctl     call.(CVE-2016-4568i1/4%0

  - The usb_serial_console_disconnect function in     drivers/usb/serial/console.c in the Linux kernel,     before 4.13.8, allows local users to cause a denial of     service (use-after-free and system crash) or possibly     have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device,     related to disconnection and failed     setup.(CVE-2017-16525i1/4%0

  - The Linux kernel is vulnerable to a NULL pointer     dereference in the ext4/xattr.c:ext4_xattr_inode_hash()     function. An attacker could trick a legitimate user or     a privileged attacker could exploit this to cause a     NULL pointer dereference with a crafted ext4 image.
    (CVE-2018-1094)

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

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP3 Azure kernel was updated to 4.4.162 to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed :

CVE-2018-18281: The mremap() syscall performs TLB flushes after dropping pagetable locks. If a syscall such as ftruncate() removes entries from the pagetables of a task that is in the middle of mremap(), a stale TLB entry can remain for a short time that permits access to a physical page after it has been released back to the page allocator and reused. (bnc#1113769).

CVE-2018-18710: An information leak in cdrom_ioctl_select_disc in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c could be used by local attackers to read kernel memory because a cast from unsigned long to int interferes with bounds checking. This is similar to CVE-2018-10940 and CVE-2018-16658 (bnc#1113751).

CVE-2018-18690: A local attacker able to set attributes on an xfs filesystem could make this filesystem non-operational until the next mount by triggering an unchecked error condition during an xfs attribute change, because xfs_attr_shortform_addname in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_attr.c mishandled ATTR_REPLACE operations with conversion of an attr from short to long form (bnc#1105025).

CVE-2018-18386: drivers/tty/n_tty.c allowed local attackers (who are able to access pseudo terminals) to hang/block further usage of any pseudo terminal devices due to an EXTPROC versus ICANON confusion in TIOCINQ (bnc#1094825).

CVE-2018-9516: In hid_debug_events_read of drivers/hid/hid-debug.c, there is a possible out of bounds write due to a missing bounds check.
This could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
(bnc#1108498).

CVE-2018-14633: A security flaw was found in the chap_server_compute_md5() function in the ISCSI target code in a way an authentication request from an ISCSI initiator is processed. An unauthenticated remote attacker can cause a stack-based 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. (bnc#1107829).

CVE-2018-17182: The vmacache_flush_all function in mm/vmacache.c mishandled sequence number overflows. An attacker can trigger a use-after-free (and possibly gain privileges) via certain thread creation, map, unmap, invalidation, and dereference operations (bnc#1108399).

CVE-2018-16597: Incorrect access checking in overlayfs mounts could be used by local attackers to modify or truncate files in the underlying filesystem (bnc#1106512).

CVE-2018-14613: There is an invalid pointer dereference in io_ctl_map_page() when mounting and operating a crafted btrfs image, because of a lack of block group item validation in check_leaf_item in fs/btrfs/tree-checker.c (bnc#1102896).

CVE-2018-14617: 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 (bnc#1102870).

CVE-2018-16276: Local attackers could use user access read/writes with incorrect bounds checking in the yurex USB driver to crash the kernel or potentially escalate privileges (bnc#1106095 bnc#1115593).

CVE-2018-7757: Memory leak in the sas_smp_get_phy_events function in drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_expander.c allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via many read accesses to files in the /sys/class/sas_phy directory, as demonstrated by the /sys/class/sas_phy/phy-1:0:12/invalid_dword_count file (bnc#1087209).

CVE-2018-7480: The blkcg_init_queue function in block/blk-cgroup.c allowed local users to cause a denial of service (double free) or possibly have unspecified other impact by triggering a creation failure (bnc#1082863).

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

  - The Linux kernel is vulnerable to a NULL pointer     dereference in the     ext4/mballoc.c:ext4_process_freed_data() function. An     attacker could trick a legitimate user or a privileged     attacker could exploit this by mounting a crafted ext4     image to cause a kernel panic.(CVE-2018-1092)

  - In the function wmi_set_ie() in the Linux kernel the     length validation code does not handle unsigned integer     overflow properly. As a result, a large value of the     aEUR~ie_lenaEURtm argument can cause a buffer overflow and     thus a memory corruption leading to a system crash or     other or unspecified impact. Due to the nature of the     flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out,     although we believe it is unlikely.(CVE-2018-5848)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ext4 filesystem.
    A local user can cause an out-of-bound access in     ext4_get_group_info function, a denial of service, and     a system crash by mounting and operating on a crafted     ext4 filesystem image.(CVE-2018-10881)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ext4 filesystem.
    A local user can cause an out-of-bounds write and a     denial of service or unspecified other impact is     possible by mounting and operating a crafted ext4     filesystem image.(CVE-2018-10878)

  - 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-2018-14633)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before     4.18.6. An information leak in cdrom_ioctl_drive_status     in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c could be used by local     attackers to read kernel memory because a cast from     unsigned long to int interferes with bounds     checking.(CVE-2018-16658)

  - In the Linux kernel before 4.17, a local attacker able     to set attributes on an xfs filesystem could make this     filesystem non-operational until the next mount by     triggering an unchecked error condition during an xfs     attribute change, because xfs_attr_shortform_addname in     fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_attr.c mishandles ATTR_REPLACE     operations with conversion of an attr from short to     long form.(CVE-2018-18690)

  - It was found that paravirt_patch_call/jump() functions     in the arch/x86/kernel/paravirt.c in the Linux kernel     mishandles certain indirect calls, which makes it     easier for attackers to conduct Spectre-v2 attacks     against paravirtualized guests.(CVE-2018-15594)

  - A security flaw was found in the Linux kernel in     drivers/tty/n_tty.c which allows local attackers (ones     who are able to access pseudo terminals) to lock them     up and block further usage of any pseudo terminal     devices due to an EXTPROC versus ICANON confusion in     TIOCINQ handler.(CVE-2018-18386)

  - An out-of-bounds access issue was discovered in     yurex_read() in drivers/usb/misc/yurex.c in the Linux     kernel. A local attacker could use user access     read/writes with incorrect bounds checking in the yurex     USB driver to crash the kernel or potentially escalate     privileges.(CVE-2018-16276)

  - The KEYS subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.18 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial     of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via vectors involving a NULL value for a certain     match field, related to the keyring_search_iterator function in keyring.c. (CVE-2017-2647)

  - It was found that the raw midi kernel driver does not protect against concurrent access which leads to a     double realloc (double free) in snd_rawmidi_input_params() and snd_rawmidi_output_status() which are part     of snd_rawmidi_ioctl() handler in rawmidi.c file. A malicious local attacker could possibly use this for     privilege escalation. (CVE-2018-10902)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3. An Integer Overflow in kernel/time/posix-     timers.c in the POSIX timer code is caused by the way the overrun accounting works. Depending on interval     and expiry time values, the overrun can be larger than INT_MAX, but the accounting is int based. This     basically makes the accounting values, which are visible to user space via timer_getoverrun(2) and     siginfo::si_overrun, random. For example, a local user can cause a denial of service (signed integer     overflow) via crafted mmap, futex, timer_create, and timer_settime system calls. (CVE-2018-12896)

  - drivers/infiniband/core/ucma.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.11 allows ucma_leave_multicast to access a     certain data structure after a cleanup step in ucma_process_join, which allows attackers to cause a denial     of service (use-after-free). (CVE-2018-14734)

  - drivers/tty/n_tty.c in the Linux kernel before 4.14.11 allows local attackers (who are able to access     pseudo terminals) to hang/block further usage of any pseudo terminal devices due to an EXTPROC versus     ICANON confusion in TIOCINQ. (CVE-2018-18386)

  - In the Linux kernel before 4.17, a local attacker able to set attributes on an xfs filesystem could make     this filesystem non-operational until the next mount by triggering an unchecked error condition during an     xfs attribute change, because xfs_attr_shortform_addname in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_attr.c mishandles     ATTR_REPLACE operations with conversion of an attr from short to long form. (CVE-2018-18690)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.19. An information leak in cdrom_ioctl_select_disc     in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c could be used by local attackers to read kernel memory because a cast from     unsigned long to int interferes with bounds checking. This is similar to CVE-2018-10940 and     CVE-2018-16658. (CVE-2018-18710)

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 SP3 LTSS kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed :

CVE-2018-14633: A security flaw was found in the chap_server_compute_md5() function in the ISCSI target code in a way an authentication request from an ISCSI initiator is processed. An unauthenticated remote attacker can cause a stack-based 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. (bnc#1107829).

CVE-2018-14617: 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 (bnc#1102870).

CVE-2018-16276: An issue was discovered in yurex_read in drivers/usb/misc/yurex.c where local attackers could use user access read/writes with incorrect bounds checking in the yurex USB driver to crash the kernel or potentially escalate privileges (bnc#1106095).

CVE-2018-12896: An Integer Overflow in kernel/time/posix-timers.c in the POSIX timer code is caused by the way the overrun accounting works. Depending on interval and expiry time values, the overrun can be larger than INT_MAX, but the accounting is int based.

(bnc#1099863)

CVE-2018-10902: It was found that the raw midi kernel driver did not protect against concurrent access which leads to a double realloc (double free) in snd_rawmidi_input_params() and snd_rawmidi_output_status() which are part of snd_rawmidi_ioctl() handler in rawmidi.c file. A malicious local attacker could possibly use this for privilege escalation (bnc#1105322).

CVE-2018-10938: A crafted network packet sent remotely by an attacker may force the kernel to enter an infinite loop in the cipso_v4_optptr() function in net/ipv4/cipso_ipv4.c leading to a denial-of-service. A certain non-default configuration of LSM (Linux Security Module) and NetLabel should be set up on a system before an attacker could leverage this flaw (bnc#1106016).

CVE-2018-10940: The cdrom_ioctl_media_changed function in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c allowed local attackers to use a incorrect bounds check in the CDROM driver CDROM_MEDIA_CHANGED ioctl to read out kernel memory (bnc#1092903).

CVE-2018-12896: An Integer Overflow in kernel/time/posix-timers.c in the POSIX timer code is caused by the way the overrun accounting works. Depending on interval and expiry time values, the overrun can be larger than INT_MAX, but the accounting is int based. This basically made the accounting values, which are visible to user space via timer_getoverrun(2) and siginfo::si_overrun, random. For example, a local user can cause a denial of service (signed integer overflow) via crafted mmap, futex, timer_create, and timer_settime system calls (bnc#1099922).

CVE-2018-13093: There is a NULL pointer dereference and panic in lookup_slow() on a NULL inode->i_ops pointer when doing pathwalks on a corrupted xfs image. This occurs because of a lack of proper validation that cached inodes are free during allocation (bnc#1100001).

CVE-2018-13094: An OOPS may occur for a corrupted xfs image after xfs_da_shrink_inode() is called with a NULL bp (bnc#1100000).

CVE-2018-13095: A denial of service (memory corruption and BUG) can occur for a corrupted xfs image upon encountering an inode that is in extent format, but has more extents than fit in the inode fork (bnc#1099999).

CVE-2018-14617: 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 (bnc#1102870).

CVE-2018-14678: The xen_failsafe_callback entry point in arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S did not properly maintain RBX, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (uninitialized memory usage and system crash). Within Xen, 64-bit x86 PV Linux guest OS users can trigger a guest OS crash or possibly gain privileges (bnc#1102715).

CVE-2018-15572: The spectre_v2_select_mitigation function in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/bugs.c did not always fill RSB upon a context switch, which made it easier for attackers to conduct userspace-userspace spectreRSB attacks (bnc#1102517 bnc#1105296).

CVE-2018-15594: arch/x86/kernel/paravirt.c mishandled certain indirect calls, which made it easier for attackers to conduct Spectre-v2 attacks against paravirtual guests (bnc#1105348).

CVE-2018-16276: Local attackers could use user access read/writes with incorrect bounds checking in the yurex USB driver to crash the kernel or potentially escalate privileges (bnc#1106095).

CVE-2018-16658: An information leak in cdrom_ioctl_drive_status in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c could be used by local attackers to read kernel memory because a cast from unsigned long to int interferes with bounds checking. This is similar to CVE-2018-10940 (bnc#1107689).

CVE-2018-17182: The vmacache_flush_all function in mm/vmacache.c mishandled sequence number overflows. An attacker can trigger a use-after-free (and possibly gain privileges) via certain thread creation, map, unmap, invalidation, and dereference operations (bnc#1108399).

CVE-2018-6554: Memory leak in the irda_bind function in net/irda/af_irda.c and later in drivers/staging/irda/net/af_irda.c allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by repeatedly binding an AF_IRDA socket (bnc#1106509).

CVE-2018-6555: The irda_setsockopt function in net/irda/af_irda.c and later in drivers/staging/irda/net/af_irda.c allowed local users to cause a denial of service (ias_object use-after-free and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via an AF_IRDA socket (bnc#1106511).

CVE-2018-7757: Memory leak in the sas_smp_get_phy_events function in drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_expander.c allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via many read accesses to files in the /sys/class/sas_phy directory, as demonstrated by the /sys/class/sas_phy/phy-1:0:12/invalid_dword_count file (bnc#1084536).

CVE-2018-9363: A buffer overflow in bluetooth HID report processing could be used by malicious bluetooth devices to crash the kernel or potentially execute code (bnc#1105292). The following security bugs were fixed :

CVE-2018-7480: The blkcg_init_queue function in block/blk-cgroup.c allowed local users to cause a denial of service (double free) or possibly have unspecified other impact by triggering a creation failure (bnc#1082863).

CVE-2018-12896: Prevent integer overflow in the POSIX timer code that was caused by the way the overrun accounting works. Depending on interval and expiry time values, the overrun can be larger than INT_MAX, but the accounting is int based. This basically made the accounting values, which are visible to user space via timer_getoverrun(2) and siginfo::si_overrun, random. This allowed a local user to cause a denial of service (signed integer overflow) via crafted mmap, futex, timer_create, and timer_settime system calls (bnc#1099922)

CVE-2018-13093: Prevent NULL pointer dereference and panic in lookup_slow() on a NULL inode->i_ops pointer when doing pathwalks on a corrupted xfs image. This occured because of a lack of proper validation that cached inodes are free during allocation (bnc#1100001)

CVE-2018-10880: Prevent stack-out-of-bounds write in the ext4 filesystem code when mounting and writing to a crafted ext4 image in ext4_update_inline_data(). An attacker could have used this to cause a system crash and a denial of service (bsc#1099845)

CVE-2018-10882: A local user could have caused an out-of-bound write, a denial of service, and a system crash by unmounting a crafted ext4 filesystem image (bsc#1099849)

CVE-2018-10881: A local user could have caused an out-of-bound access in ext4_get_group_info function, a denial of service, and a system crash by mounting and operating on a crafted ext4 filesystem image (bsc#1099864)

CVE-2018-10877: Prevent out-of-bound access in the ext4_ext_drop_refs() function when operating on a crafted ext4 filesystem image (bsc#1099846)

CVE-2018-10876: A use-after-free was possible in ext4_ext_remove_space() function when mounting and operating a crafted ext4 image (bsc#1099811)

CVE-2018-10878: A local user could have caused an out-of-bounds write and a denial of service or unspecified other impact by mounting and operating a crafted ext4 filesystem image (bsc#1099813)

CVE-2018-17182: An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel The vmacache_flush_all function in mm/vmacache.c mishandled sequence number overflows. An attacker can trigger a use-after-free (and possibly gain privileges) via certain thread creation, map, unmap, invalidation, and dereference operations (bnc#1108399).

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3776-2 advisory.

  - In fs/ocfs2/cluster/nodemanager.c in the Linux kernel before 4.15, local users can cause a denial of     service (NULL pointer dereference and BUG) because a required mutex is not used. (CVE-2017-18216)

  - It was found that the raw midi kernel driver does not protect against concurrent access which leads to a     double realloc (double free) in snd_rawmidi_input_params() and snd_rawmidi_output_status() which are part     of snd_rawmidi_ioctl() handler in rawmidi.c file. A malicious local attacker could possibly use this for     privilege escalation. (CVE-2018-10902)

  - 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. Kernel versions 4.18.x, 4.14.x and 3.10.x are believed to be vulnerable. (CVE-2018-14633)

  - The spectre_v2_select_mitigation function in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/bugs.c in the Linux kernel before 4.18.1     does not always fill RSB upon a context switch, which makes it easier for attackers to conduct userspace-     userspace spectreRSB attacks. (CVE-2018-15572)

  - arch/x86/kernel/paravirt.c in the Linux kernel before 4.18.1 mishandles certain indirect calls, which     makes it easier for attackers to conduct Spectre-v2 attacks against paravirtual guests. (CVE-2018-15594)

  - An issue was discovered in yurex_read in drivers/usb/misc/yurex.c in the Linux kernel before 4.17.7. Local     attackers could use user access read/writes with incorrect bounds checking in the yurex USB driver to     crash the kernel or potentially escalate privileges. (CVE-2018-16276)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.18.8. The vmacache_flush_all function in     mm/vmacache.c mishandles sequence number overflows. An attacker can trigger a use-after-free (and possibly     gain privileges) via certain thread creation, map, unmap, invalidation, and dereference operations.
    (CVE-2018-17182)

  - Memory leak in the irda_bind function in net/irda/af_irda.c and later in     drivers/staging/irda/net/af_irda.c in the Linux kernel before 4.17 allows local users to cause a denial of     service (memory consumption) by repeatedly binding an AF_IRDA socket. (CVE-2018-6554)

  - The irda_setsockopt function in net/irda/af_irda.c and later in drivers/staging/irda/net/af_irda.c in the     Linux kernel before 4.17 allows local users to cause a denial of service (ias_object use-after-free and     system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via an AF_IRDA socket. (CVE-2018-6555)

CVE-2018-10883: A local user could have caused an out-of-bounds write in jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata(), a denial of service, and a system crash by mounting and operating on a crafted ext4 filesystem image (bsc#1099863)

CVE-2018-10880: Prevent stack-out-of-bounds write in the ext4 filesystem code when mounting and writing to a crafted ext4 image in ext4_update_inline_data(). An attacker could have used this to cause a system crash and a denial of service (bsc#1099845)

CVE-2018-10882: A local user could have caused an out-of-bound write, a denial of service, and a system crash by unmounting a crafted ext4 filesystem image (bsc#1099849)

CVE-2018-10881: A local user could have caused an out-of-bound access in ext4_get_group_info function, a denial of service, and a system crash by mounting and operating on a crafted ext4 filesystem image (bsc#1099864)

CVE-2018-10877: Prevent out-of-bound access in the ext4_ext_drop_refs() function when operating on a crafted ext4 filesystem image (bsc#1099846)

CVE-2018-10876: A use-after-free was possible in ext4_ext_remove_space() function when mounting and operating a crafted ext4 image (bsc#1099811)

CVE-2018-10878: A local user could have caused an out-of-bounds write and a denial of service or unspecified other impact by mounting and operating a crafted ext4 filesystem image (bsc#1099813)

CVE-2018-10853: The KVM hypervisor did not check current privilege(CPL) level while emulating unprivileged instructions. An unprivileged guest user/process could have used this flaw to potentially escalate privileges inside guest (bsc#1097104).

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

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 SP4 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed :

CVE-2018-14617: Prevent NULL pointer dereference and panic in hfsplus_lookup() 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 (bsc#1102870).

CVE-2018-16276: Incorrect bounds checking in the yurex USB driver in yurex_read allowed local attackers to use user access read/writes to crash the kernel or potentially escalate privileges (bsc#1106095).

CVE-2018-15594: Ensure correct handling of indirect calls, to prevent attackers for conducting Spectre-v2 attacks against paravirtual guests (bsc#1105348).

CVE-2018-14634: Prevent integer overflow in create_elf_tables that allowed a local attacker to exploit this vulnerability via a SUID-root binary and obtain full root privileges (bsc#1108912)

CVE-2018-12896: Prevent integer overflow in the POSIX timer code that was caused by the way the overrun accounting works. Depending on interval and expiry time values, the overrun can be larger than INT_MAX, but the accounting is int based. This basically made the accounting values, which are visible to user space via timer_getoverrun(2) and siginfo::si_overrun, random. This allowed a local user to cause a denial of service (signed integer overflow) via crafted mmap, futex, timer_create, and timer_settime system calls (bnc#1099922)

CVE-2018-10940: The cdrom_ioctl_media_changed function allowed local attackers to use a incorrect bounds check in the CDROM driver CDROM_MEDIA_CHANGED ioctl to read out kernel memory (bsc#1092903)

CVE-2018-16658: Prevent information leak in cdrom_ioctl_drive_status that could have been used by local attackers to read kernel memory (bnc#1107689)

CVE-2018-6555: The irda_setsockopt function allowed local users to cause a denial of service (ias_object use-after-free and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via an AF_IRDA socket (bnc#1106511)

CVE-2018-6554: Prevent memory leak in the irda_bind function that allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by repeatedly binding an AF_IRDA socket (bnc#1106509)

CVE-2018-15572: The spectre_v2_select_mitigation function did not always fill RSB upon a context switch, which made it easier for attackers to conduct userspace-userspace spectreRSB attacks (bnc#1102517)

CVE-2018-10902: Protect against concurrent access to prevent double realloc (double free) in snd_rawmidi_input_params() and snd_rawmidi_output_status(). A malicious local attacker could have used this for privilege escalation (bnc#1105322)

CVE-2018-14734: ucma_leave_multicast accessed a certain data structure after a cleanup step in ucma_process_join, which allowed attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) (bsc#1103119)

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