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 :

  - An information-leak vulnerability was found in the     kernel when it truncated a file to a smaller size which     consisted of an inline extent that was compressed. The     data between the new file size and the old file size     was not discarded and the number of bytes used by the     inode were not correctly decremented, which gave the     wrong report for callers of the stat(2) syscall. This     wasted metadata space and allowed for the truncated     data to be leaked, and data corruption or loss to     occur. A caller of the clone ioctl could exploit this     flaw by using only standard file-system operations     without root access to read the truncated     data.(CVE-2015-8374i1/4%0

  - crypto/pcrypt.c in the Linux kernel, before 4.14.13,     mishandles freeing instances, allowing a local user     able to access the AF_ALG-based AEAD interface     (CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER_API_AEAD) and pcrypt     (CONFIG_CRYPTO_PCRYPT) to cause a denial of service     (kfree of an incorrect pointer) or possibly have     unspecified other impact by executing a crafted     sequence of system calls. Due to the nature of the     flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out,     although we believe it is unlikely.(CVE-2017-18075i1/4%0

  - An elevation of privilege vulnerability in the Qualcomm     Wi-Fi driver could enable a local malicious application     to execute arbitrary code within the context of the     kernel. This issue is rated as High because it first     requires compromising a privileged process. Product:
    Android. Versions: N/A. Android ID: A-32835279.
    References: QC-CR#1096945.(CVE-2017-0523i1/4%0

  - The saa7164_bus_get function in     drivers/media/pci/saa7164/saa7164-bus.c in the Linux     kernel through 4.10.14 allows local users to cause a     denial of service (out-of-bounds array access) or     possibly have unspecified other impact by changing a     certain sequence-number value, aka a 'double fetch'     vulnerability.(CVE-2017-8831i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's splice()     system call validated its parameters. On certain file     systems, a local, unprivileged user could use this flaw     to write past the maximum file size, and thus crash the     system.(CVE-2014-7822i1/4%0

  - The vc4_get_bcl function in     drivers/gpu/drm/vc4/vc4_gem.c in the VideoCore DRM     driver in the Linux kernel before 4.9.7 does not set an     errno value upon certain overflow detections allowing     local users to cause a denial of service (incorrect     pointer dereference and OOPS) via inconsistent size     values in a VC4_SUBMIT_CL ioctl call.(CVE-2017-5577i1/4%0

  - 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-2017-18216i1/4%0

  - A race condition issue leading to a use-after-free flaw     was found in the way the raw packet sockets     implementation in the Linux kernel networking subsystem     handled synchronization while creating the TPACKET_V3     ring buffer. A local user able to open a raw packet     socket (requires the CAP_NET_RAW capability) could use     this flaw to elevate their privileges on the     system.(CVE-2016-8655i1/4%0

  - An exploitable memory corruption flaw was found in the     Linux kernel. The append path can be erroneously     switched from UFO to non-UFO in ip_ufo_append_data()     when building an UFO packet with MSG_MORE option. If     unprivileged user namespaces are available, this flaw     can be exploited to gain root     privileges.(CVE-2017-1000112i1/4%0

  - A security flaw was found in the Linux kernel in a way     that the cleancache subsystem clears an inode after the     final file truncation (removal). The new file created     with the same inode may contain leftover pages from     cleancache and the old file data instead of the new     one.(CVE-2018-16862i1/4%0

  - arch/arm64/ include /asm/pgtable.h in the Linux kernel     before 3.15-rc5-next-20140519, as used in Android     before 2016-07-05 on Nexus 5X and 6P devices,     mishandles execute-only pages, which allows attackers     to gain privileges via a crafted application, aka     Android internal bug 28557020.(CVE-2014-9803i1/4%0

  - A heap-buffer overflow vulnerability was found in the     arcmsr_iop_message_xfer() function in     'drivers/scsi/arcmsr/arcmsr_hba.c' file in the Linux     kernel through 4.8.2. The function does not restrict a     certain length field, which allows local users to gain     privileges or cause a denial of service via an     ARCMSR_MESSAGE_WRITE_WQBUFFER control code. This can     potentially cause kernel heap corruption and arbitrary     kernel code execution.(CVE-2016-7425i1/4%0

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before     4.18.11. The ipddp_ioctl function in     drivers/net/appletalk/ipddp.c allows local users to     obtain sensitive kernel address information by     leveraging CAP_NET_ADMIN to read the ipddp_route dev     and next fields via an SIOCFINDIPDDPRT ioctl     call.(CVE-2018-20511i1/4%0

  - A memory leak in the irda_bind function in     net/irda/af_irda.c in the Linux kernel, through 4.16,     allows local users to cause a denial of service due to     a memory consumption by repeatedly binding an AF_IRDA     socket.(CVE-2018-6554i1/4%0

  - sound/core/timer.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4.1     employs a locking approach that does not consider slave     timer instances, which allows local users to cause a     denial of service (race condition, use-after-free, and     system crash) via a crafted ioctl     call.(CVE-2016-2547i1/4%0

  - Buffer overflow in the complete_emulated_mmio function     in arch/x86/kvm/x86.c in the Linux kernel before 3.13.6     allows guest OS users to execute arbitrary code on the     host OS by leveraging a loop that triggers an invalid     memory copy affecting certain cancel_work_item     data.(CVE-2014-0049i1/4%0

  - An issue was discovered in the F2FS filesystem code in     the Linux kernel in fs/f2fs/inode.c. A denial of     service due to a slab out-of-bounds read can occur for     a crafted f2fs filesystem image in which FI_EXTRA_ATTR     is set in an inode.(CVE-2018-13098i1/4%0

  - A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel where     having malicious IP options present would cause the     ipv4_pktinfo_prepare() function to drop/free the dst.
    This could result in a system crash or possible     privilege escalation.(CVE-2017-5970i1/4%0

  - In the Linux kernel's vmw_gb_surface_define_ioctl()     function, in 'drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_surface.c'     file, a 'req-i1/4zmip_levels' is a user-controlled value     which is later used as a loop count limit. This allows     local unprivileged user to cause a denial of service by     a kernel lockup via a crafted ioctl call for a     '/dev/dri/renderD*' device.(CVE-2017-7346i1/4%0

  - It was found that the NFSv4 server in the Linux kernel     did not properly validate layout type when processing     NFSv4 pNFS LAYOUTGET and GETDEVICEINFO operands. A     remote attacker could use this flaw to soft-lockup the     system and thus cause denial of     service.(CVE-2017-8797i1/4%0

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.

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information leaks.

CVE-2017-18249

A race condition was discovered in the disk space allocator of F2FS. A user with access to an F2FS volume could use this to cause a denial of service or other security impact.

CVE-2018-1128, CVE-2018-1129

The cephx authentication protocol used by Ceph was susceptible to replay attacks, and calculated signatures incorrectly. These vulnerabilities in the server required changes to authentication that are incompatible with existing clients. The kernel's client code has now been updated to be compatible with the fixed server.

CVE-2018-3639 (SSB)

Multiple researchers have discovered that Speculative Store Bypass (SSB), a feature implemented in many processors, could be used to read sensitive information from another context. In particular, code in a software sandbox may be able to read sensitive information from outside the sandbox. This issue is also known as Spectre variant 4.

This update adds a further mitigation for this issue in the eBPF (Extended Berkeley Packet Filter) implementation.

CVE-2018-5391 (FragmentSmack)

Juha-Matti Tilli discovered a flaw in the way the Linux kernel handled reassembly of fragmented IPv4 and IPv6 packets. A remote attacker can take advantage of this flaw to trigger time and calculation expensive fragment reassembly algorithms by sending specially crafted packets, leading to remote denial of service.

This was previously mitigated by reducing the default limits on memory usage for incomplete fragmented packets. This update replaces that mitigation with a more complete fix.

CVE-2018-5848

The wil6210 wifi driver did not properly validate lengths in scan and connection requests, leading to a possible buffer overflow. On systems using this driver, a local user with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability could use this for denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or potentially for privilege escalation.

CVE-2018-12896, CVE-2018-13053

Team OWL337 reported possible integer overflows in the POSIX timer implementation. These might have some security impact.

CVE-2018-13096, CVE-2018-13097, CVE-2018-13100, CVE-2018-14614, CVE-2018-14616

Wen Xu from SSLab at Gatech reported that crafted F2FS volumes could trigger a crash (BUG, Oops, or division by zero) 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-2018-13406

Dr Silvio Cesare of InfoSect reported a potential integer overflow in the uvesafb driver. A user with permission to access such a device might be able to use this for denial of service or privilege escalation.

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-2018-15471 ((XSA-270)

Felix Wilhelm of Google Project Zero discovered a flaw in the hash handling of the xen-netback Linux kernel module. A malicious or buggy frontend may cause the (usually privileged) backend to make out of bounds memory accesses, potentially resulting in privilege escalation, denial of service, or information leaks.

https://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/advisory-270.html

CVE-2018-16862

Vasily Averin and Pavel Tikhomirov from Virtuozzo Kernel Team discovered that the cleancache memory management feature did not invalidate cached data for deleted files. On Xen guests using the tmem driver, local users could potentially read data from other users' deleted files if they were able to create new files on the same volume.

CVE-2018-17972

Jann Horn reported that the /proc/*/stack files in procfs leaked sensitive data from the kernel. These files are now only readable by users with the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability (usually only root)

CVE-2018-18281

Jann Horn reported a race condition in the virtual memory manager that can result in a process briefly having access to memory after it is freed and reallocated. A local user could possibly exploit this for denial of service (memory corruption) or for privilege escalation.

CVE-2018-18690

Kanda Motohiro reported that XFS did not correctly handle some xattr (extended attribute) writes that require changing the disk format of the xattr. A user with access to an XFS volume could use this for denial of service.

CVE-2018-18710

It was discovered that the cdrom driver does not correctly validate the parameter to the CDROM_SELECT_DISC ioctl. A user with access to a cdrom device could use this to read sensitive information from the kernel or to cause a denial of service (crash).

CVE-2018-19407

Wei Wu reported a potential crash (Oops) in the KVM implementation for x86 processors. A user with access to /dev/kvm could use this for denial of service.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 4.9.144-3.1~deb8u1. This version also includes fixes for Debian bugs #890034, #896911, #907581, #915229, and #915231; and other fixes included in upstream stable updates.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information leaks.

  - CVE-2018-6554     A memory leak in the irda_bind function in the irda     subsystem was discovered. A local user can take     advantage of this flaw to cause a denial of service     (memory consumption).

  - CVE-2018-6555     A flaw was discovered in the irda_setsockopt function in     the irda subsystem, allowing a local user to cause a     denial of service (use-after-free and system crash).

  - CVE-2018-7755     Brian Belleville discovered a flaw in the     fd_locked_ioctl function in the floppy driver in the     Linux kernel. The floppy driver copies a kernel pointer     to user memory in response to the FDGETPRM ioctl. A     local user with access to a floppy drive device can take     advantage of this flaw to discover the location kernel     code and data.

  - CVE-2018-9363     It was discovered that the Bluetooth HIDP implementation     did not correctly check the length of received report     messages. A paired HIDP device could use this to cause a     buffer overflow, leading to denial of service (memory     corruption or crash) or potentially remote code     execution.

  - CVE-2018-9516     It was discovered that the HID events interface in     debugfs did not correctly limit the length of copies to     user buffers. A local user with access to these files     could use this to cause a denial of service (memory     corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege     escalation. However, by default debugfs is only     accessible by the root user.

  - CVE-2018-10902     It was discovered that the rawmidi kernel driver does     not protect against concurrent access which leads to a     double-realloc (double free) flaw. A local attacker can     take advantage of this issue for privilege escalation.

  - CVE-2018-10938     Yves Younan from Cisco reported that the Cipso IPv4     module did not correctly check the length of IPv4     options. On custom kernels with CONFIG_NETLABEL enabled,     a remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of     service (hang).

  - CVE-2018-13099     Wen Xu from SSLab at Gatech reported a use-after-free     bug in the F2FS implementation. An attacker able to     mount a crafted F2FS volume could use this to cause a     denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or     possibly for privilege escalation.

  - CVE-2018-14609     Wen Xu from SSLab at Gatech reported a potential NULL     pointer dereference in the F2FS implementation. An     attacker able to mount a crafted F2FS volume could use     this to cause a denial of service (crash).

  - CVE-2018-14617     Wen Xu from SSLab at Gatech reported a potential NULL     pointer dereference in the HFS+ implementation. An     attacker able to mount a crafted HFS+ volume could use     this to cause a denial of service (crash).

  - CVE-2018-14633     Vincent Pelletier discovered a stack-based buffer     overflow flaw in the chap_server_compute_md5() function     in the iSCSI target code. An unauthenticated remote     attacker can take advantage of this flaw to cause a     denial of service or possibly to get a non-authorized     access to data exported by an iSCSI target.

  - CVE-2018-14678     M. Vefa Bicakci and Andy Lutomirski discovered a flaw in     the kernel exit code used on amd64 systems running as     Xen PV guests. A local user could use this to cause a     denial of service (crash).

  - CVE-2018-14734     A use-after-free bug was discovered in the InfiniBand     communication manager. A local user could use this to     cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption)     or possible for privilege escalation.

  - CVE-2018-15572     Esmaiel Mohammadian Koruyeh, Khaled Khasawneh, Chengyu     Song, and Nael Abu-Ghazaleh, from University of     California, Riverside, reported a variant of Spectre     variant 2, dubbed SpectreRSB. A local user may be able     to use this to read sensitive information from processes     owned by other users.

  - CVE-2018-15594     Nadav Amit reported that some indirect function calls     used in paravirtualised guests were vulnerable to     Spectre variant 2. A local user may be able to use this     to read sensitive information from the kernel.

  - CVE-2018-16276     Jann Horn discovered that the yurex driver did not     correctly limit the length of copies to user buffers. A     local user with access to a yurex device node could use     this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or     crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

  - CVE-2018-16658     It was discovered that the cdrom driver does not     correctly validate the parameter to the     CDROM_DRIVE_STATUS ioctl. A user with access to a cdrom     device could use this to read sensitive information from     the kernel or to cause a denial of service (crash).

  - CVE-2018-17182     Jann Horn discovered that the vmacache_flush_all     function mishandles sequence number overflows. A local     user can take advantage of this flaw to trigger a     use-after-free, causing a denial of service (crash or     memory corruption) or privilege escalation.
