This will cause a BUG and denial of     service.(CVE-2019-15807)A vulnerability was found in     Linux kernel's, versions up to 3.10, implementation of     overlayfs. An attacker with local access can create a     denial of service situation via NULL pointer     dereference in ovl_posix_acl_create function in     fs/overlayfs/dir.c. This can allow attackers with     ability to create directories on overlayfs to crash the     kernel creating a denial of service     (DOS).(CVE-2019-10140)In the Linux kernel, a certain     net/ipv4/tcp_output.c change, which was properly     incorporated into 4.16.12, was incorrectly backported     to the earlier longterm kernels, introducing a new     vulnerability that was potentially more severe than the     issue that was intended to be fixed by backporting.
    Specifically, by adding to a write queue between     disconnection and re-connection, a local attacker can     trigger multiple use-after-free conditions. This can     result in a kernel crash, or potentially in privilege     escalation.(CVE-2019-15239)check_input_term in     sound/usb/mixer.c in the Linux kernel through 5.2.9     mishandles recursion, leading to kernel stack     exhaustion.(CVE-2019-15118)drivers     et/wireless/ath/ath10k/usb.c in the Linux kernel     through 5.2.8 has a NULL pointer dereference via an     incomplete address in an endpoint     descriptor.(CVE-2019-15099)drivers     et/wireless/ath/ath6kl/usb.c in the Linux kernel     through 5.2.9 has a NULL pointer dereference via an     incomplete address in an endpoint     descriptor.(CVE-2019-15098)A flaw was found in the     Linux kernel's Bluetooth implementation of UART.

Any     attacker having access to ceph cluster network who is     able to sniff packets on network can use this     vulnerability to authenticate with ceph service and     perform actions allowed by ceph service. Ceph branches     master, mimic, luminous and jewel are believed to be     vulnerable.(CVE-2018-1128)ax25_create in     net/ax25/af_ax25.c in the AF_AX25 network module in the     Linux kernel through 5.3.2 does not enforce     CAP_NET_RAW, which means that unprivileged users can     create a raw socket, aka     CID-0614e2b73768.(CVE-2019-17052)ieee802154_create in     net/ieee802154/socket.c in the AF_IEEE802154 network     module in the Linux kernel through 5.3.2 does not     enforce CAP_NET_RAW, which means that unprivileged     users can create a raw socket, aka     CID-e69dbd4619e7.(CVE-2019-17053)atalk_create in     net/appletalk/ddp.c in the AF_APPLETALK network module     in the Linux kernel through 5.3.2 does not enforce     CAP_NET_RAW, which means that unprivileged users can     create a raw socket, aka     CID-6cc03e8aa36c.(CVE-2019-17054)base_sock_create in     drivers/isdn/mISDN/socket.c in the AF_ISDN network     module in the Linux kernel through 5.3.2 does not     enforce CAP_NET_RAW, which means that unprivileged     users can create a raw socket, aka     CID-b91ee4aa2a21.(CVE-2019-17055)llcp_sock_create in     net fc/llcp_sock.c in the AF_NFC network module in the     Linux kernel through 5.3.2 does not enforce     CAP_NET_RAW, which means that unprivileged users can     create a raw socket, aka     CID-3a359798b176.(CVE-2019-17056)A flaw was found in     the Linux kernel's freescale hypervisor manager     implementation, kernel versions 5.0.x up to, excluding     5.0.17. A parameter passed to an ioctl was incorrectly     validated and used in size calculations for the page     size calculation. An attacker can use this flaw to     crash the system, corrupt memory, or create other     adverse security     affects.(CVE-2019-10142)drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb/techn     isat-usb2.c in the Linux kernel through 5.2.9 has an     out-of-bounds read via crafted USB device traffic     (which may be remote via usbip or     usbredir).(CVE-2019-15505)An issue was discovered in     the Linux kernel before 5.0.4. The 9p filesystem did     not protect i_size_write() properly, which causes an     i_size_read() infinite loop and denial of service on     SMP systems.(CVE-2019-16413)An issue was discovered in     xfs_setattr_nonsize in fs/xfs/xfs_iops.c in the Linux     kernel through 5.2.9. XFS partially wedges when a chgrp     fails on account of being out of disk quota.
    xfs_setattr_nonsize is failing to unlock the ILOCK     after the xfs_qm_vop_chown_reserve call fails. This is     primarily a local DoS attack vector, but it might     result as well in remote DoS if the XFS filesystem is     exported for instance via NFS.(CVE-2019-15538)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)An out-of-bounds access issue was     found in the Linux kernel, all versions through 5.3, in     the way Linux kernel's KVM hypervisor implements the     Coalesced MMIO write operation. It operates on an MMIO     ring buffer 'struct kvm_coalesced_mmio' object, wherein     write indices 'ring->first' and 'ring->last' value     could be supplied by a host user-space process. An     unprivileged host user or process with access to     '/dev/kvm' device could use this flaw to crash the host     kernel, resulting in a denial of service or potentially     escalating privileges on the system.(CVE-2019-14821)An     information disclosure vulnerability exists when     certain central processing units (CPU) speculatively     access memory, aka 'Windows Kernel Information     Disclosure Vulnerability'.
    (CVE-2019-1125)drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_os.c in the     Linux kernel 5.2.14 does not check the alloc_workqueue     return value, leading to a NULL pointer     dereference.(CVE-2019-16233)An issue was discovered in     the Linux kernel before 5.0.11. fm10k_init_module in     drivers et/ethernet/intel/fm10k/fm10k_main.c has a NULL     pointer dereference because there is no -ENOMEM upon an     alloc_workqueue failure.(CVE-2019-15924)An issue was     discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.2.1. There is a     use-after-free caused by a malicious USB device in the     drivers et/wireless/intersil/p54/p54usb.c     driver.(CVE-2019-15220 )In the Linux kernel before     5.1.7, a device can be tracked by an attacker using the     IP ID values the kernel produces for connection-less     protocols (e.g., UDP and ICMP). When such traffic is     sent to multiple destination IP addresses, it is     possible to obtain hash collisions (of indices to the     counter array) and thereby obtain the hashing key (via     enumeration). An attack may be conducted by hosting a     crafted web page that uses WebRTC or gQUIC to force UDP     traffic to attacker-controlled IP     addresses.(CVE-2019-10638)There is heap-based buffer     overflow in Linux kernel, all versions up to, excluding     5.3, in the marvell wifi chip driver in Linux kernel,     that allows local users to cause a denial of     service(system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary     code.( CVE-2019-14814)** RESERVED ** This candidate has     been reserved by an organization or individual that     will use it when announcing a new security problem.

It did not check     current privilege(CPL) level while emulating     unprivileged instructions. An unprivileged guest     user/process could use this flaw to potentially     escalate privileges inside guest.(CVE-2018-10853)A NULL     pointer dereference was found in the net/rds/rdma.c
    __rds_rdma_map() function in the Linux kernel before     4.14.7 allowing local attackers to cause a system panic     and a denial-of-service, related to RDS_GET_MR and     RDS_GET_MR_FOR_DEST.(CVE-2018-7492)An issue was     discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.20.15. The     nfc_llcp_build_tlv function in net fc/llcp_commands.c     may return NULL. If the caller does not check for this,     it will trigger a NULL pointer dereference. This will     cause denial of service. This affects nfc_llcp_build_gb     in netfc/llcp_core.c.(CVE-2019-12818)An issue was     discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.1.8. There is a     NULL pointer dereference caused by a malicious USB     device in the drivers/media/usb/siano/smsusb.c     driver.(CVE-2019-15218)An issue was discovered in the     Linux kernel before 5.1.8.

(bsc#1134397)

CVE-2019-11487: The Linux kernel allowed page reference count overflow, with resultant use-after-free issues, if about 140 GiB of RAM exists. This is related to fs/fuse/dev.c, fs/pipe.c, fs/splice.c, include/linux/mm.h, include/linux/pipe_fs_i.h, kernel/trace/trace.c, mm/gup.c, and mm/hugetlb.c. It could occur with FUSE requests.
(bsc#1133190)

CVE-2019-12818: The nfc_llcp_build_tlv function in net/nfc/llcp_commands.c may return NULL. If the caller does not check for this, it will trigger a NULL pointer dereference. This will cause denial of service. This used to affect nfc_llcp_build_gb in net/nfc/llcp_core.c. (bsc#1138293)

CVE-2019-11833: fs/ext4/extents.c in the Linux kernel did not zero out the unused memory region in the extent tree block, which might allow local users to obtain sensitive information by reading uninitialized data in the filesystem. (bsc#1135281)

CVE-2019-5489: The mincore() implementation in mm/mincore.c in the Linux kernel allowed local attackers to observe page cache access patterns of other processes on the same system, potentially allowing sniffing of secret information. (Fixing this affects the output of the fincore program.) Limited remote exploitation may be possible, as demonstrated by latency differences in accessing public files from an Apache HTTP Server. (bsc#1120843)

CVE-2019-11478: It was possible to send a crafted sequence of SACKs which will fragment the TCP retransmission queue. An attacker may have been able to further exploit the fragmented queue to cause an expensive linked-list walk for subsequent SACKs received for that same TCP connection.

CVE-2019-11479: An attacker could force the Linux kernel to segment its responses into multiple TCP segments. This would drastically increased the bandwidth required to deliver the same amount of data.
Further, it would consume additional resources such as CPU and NIC processing power.

CVE-2018-16871: A NULL pointer dereference due to an anomalized NFS message sequence was fixed. (bnc#1137103).

CVE-2019-12614: An issue was discovered in dlpar_parse_cc_property in arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/dlpar.c. There was an unchecked kstrdup of prop->name, which might allow an attacker to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) (bnc#1137194).

CVE-2019-12817: On the PowerPC architecture, local attackers could access other users processes memory (bnc#1138263).

CVE-2018-20836: An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel There was a race condition in smp_task_timedout() and smp_task_done() in drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_expander.c, leading to a use-after-free (bnc#1134395).

CVE-2019-10638: In the Linux kernel, a device could be tracked by an attacker using the IP ID values the kernel produces for connection-less protocols (e.g., UDP and ICMP). When such traffic was sent to multiple destination IP addresses, it was possible to obtain hash collisions (of indices to the counter array) and thereby obtain the hashing key (via enumeration). An attack may have been conducted by hosting a crafted web page that uses WebRTC or gQUIC to force UDP traffic to attacker-controlled IP addresses (bnc#1140575 1140577).

CVE-2019-10639: The Linux kernel allowed Information Exposure (partial kernel address disclosure), leading to a KASLR bypass. Specifically, it was possible to extract the KASLR kernel image offset using the IP ID values the kernel produces for connection-less protocols (e.g., UDP and ICMP). When such traffic was sent to multiple destination IP addresses, it was possible to obtain hash collisions (of indices to the counter array) and thereby obtain the hashing key (via enumeration). This key contains enough bits from a kernel address (of a static variable) so when the key was extracted (via enumeration), the offset of the kernel image was exposed. This attack could be carried out remotely, by the attacker forcing the target device to send UDP or ICMP (or certain other) traffic to attacker-controlled IP addresses. Forcing a server to send UDP traffic is trivial if the server is a DNS server. ICMP traffic is trivial if the server answers ICMP Echo requests (ping). For client targets, if the target visits the attacker's web page, then WebRTC or gQUIC can be used to force UDP traffic to attacker-controlled IP addresses. NOTE: this attack against KASLR became viable because IP ID generation was changed to have a dependency on an address associated with a network namespace (bnc#1140577).

CVE-2019-11599: The coredump implementation in the Linux kernel did not use locking or other mechanisms to prevent vma layout or vma flags changes while it ran, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information, cause a denial of service, or possibly have unspecified other impact by triggering a race condition with mmget_not_zero or get_task_mm calls. This is related to fs/userfaultfd.c, mm/mmap.c, fs/proc/task_mmu.c, and drivers/infiniband/core/uverbs_main.c (bnc#1131645 1133738).

CVE-2019-13233: In arch/x86/lib/insn-eval.c in the Linux kernel, there was a use-after-free for access to an LDT entry because of a race condition between modify_ldt() and a #BR exception for an MPX bounds violation (bnc#1140454).

CVE-2018-20855: An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel In create_qp_common in drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/qp.c, mlx5_ib_create_qp_resp was never initialized, resulting in a leak of stack memory to userspace(bsc#1143045).

CVE-2019-1125: Exclude ATOMs from speculation through SWAPGS (bsc#1139358).

CVE-2019-11810: An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel A NULL pointer dereference could occur when megasas_create_frame_pool() failed in megasas_alloc_cmds() in drivers/scsi/megaraid/megaraid_sas_base.c. This caused a Denial of Service, related to a use-after-free (bnc#1134399).

CVE-2019-13631: In parse_hid_report_descriptor in drivers/input/tablet/gtco.c in the Linux kernel, a malicious USB device could send an HID report that triggered an out-of-bounds write during generation of debugging messages. (bnc#1142023)

CVE-2019-13648: In the Linux kernel on the powerpc platform, when hardware transactional memory was disabled, a local user could cause a denial of service (TM Bad Thing exception and system crash) via a sigreturn() system call that sent a crafted signal frame.
(bnc#1142254)

CVE-2019-14283: In the Linux kernel, set_geometry in drivers/block/floppy.c did not validate the sect and head fields, as demonstrated by an integer overflow and out-of-bounds read. It could be triggered by an unprivileged local user when a floppy disk was inserted. NOTE: QEMU creates the floppy device by default.
(bnc#1143191)

CVE-2019-14284: In the Linux kernel, drivers/block/floppy.c allows a denial of service by setup_format_params division-by-zero.
(bnc#1143189)

CVE-2019-12456: An issue was discovered in the MPT3COMMAND case in
_ctl_ioctl_main in drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_ctl.c in the Linux. It allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact by changing the value of ioc_number between two kernel reads of that value, aka a 'double fetch' vulnerability.
NOTE: a third-party reports that this is unexploitable because the doubly fetched value is not used. (bsc#1136922)

CVE-2019-12380: An issue was discovered in the efi subsystem in the Linux kernel phys_efi_set_virtual_address_map in arch/x86/platform/efi/efi.c and efi_call_phys_prolog in arch/x86/platform/efi/efi_64.c mishandle memory allocation failures.

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):A flaw was found in the     Linux kernel's NFS implementation, all versions 3.x and     all versions 4.x up to 4.20. An attacker, who is able     to mount an exported NFS filesystem, is able to trigger     a null pointer dereference by using an invalid NFS     sequence. This can panic the machine and deny access to     the NFS server. Any outstanding disk writes to the NFS     server will be lost.(CVE-2018-16871)An issue was     discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.18.7. In     create_qp_common in drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/qp.c,     mlx5_ib_create_qp_resp was never initialized, resulting     in a leak of stack memory to     userspace.(CVE-2018-20855)An issue was discovered in     the Linux kernel before 4.18.7. In block/blk-core.c,     there is an __blk_drain_queue() use-after-free because     a certain error case is mishandled.(CVE-2018-20856)The     Linux kernel 4.x (starting from 4.1) and 5.x before     5.0.8 allows Information Exposure (partial kernel     address disclosure), leading to a KASLR bypass.
    Specifically, it is possible to extract the KASLR     kernel image offset using the IP ID values the kernel     produces for connection-less protocols (e.g., UDP and     ICMP). When such traffic is sent to multiple     destination IP addresses, it is possible to obtain hash     collisions (of indices to the counter array) and     thereby obtain the hashing key (via enumeration). This     key contains enough bits from a kernel address (of a     static variable) so when the key is extracted (via     enumeration), the offset of the kernel image is     exposed. This attack can be carried out remotely, by     the attacker forcing the target device to send UDP or     ICMP (or certain other) traffic to attacker-controlled     IP addresses. Forcing a server to send UDP traffic is     trivial if the server is a DNS server. ICMP traffic is     trivial if the server answers ICMP Echo requests     (ping). For client targets, if the target visits the     attacker's web page, then WebRTC or gQUIC can be used     to force UDP traffic to attacker-controlled IP     addresses. NOTE: this attack against KASLR became     viable in 4.1 because IP ID generation was changed to     have a dependency on an address associated with a     network namespace.(CVE-2019-10639)** DISPUTED ** An     issue was discovered in ip6_ra_control in     net/ipv6/ipv6_sockglue.c in the Linux kernel through     5.1.5. There is an unchecked kmalloc of new_ra, which     might allow an attacker to cause a denial of service     (NULL pointer dereference and system crash). NOTE: This     has been disputed as not an     issue.(CVE-2019-12378)**DISPUTED** An issue was     discovered in the efi subsystem in the Linux kernel     through 5.1.5. phys_efi_set_virtual_address_map in     arch/x86/platform/efi/efi.c and efi_call_phys_prolog in     arch/x86/platform/efi/efi_64.c mishandle memory     allocation failures. NOTE: This id is disputed as not     being an issue because ?All the code touched by the     referenced commit runs only at boot, before any user     processes are started. Therefore, there is no     possibility for an unprivileged user to control     it.?.(CVE-2019-12380)** DISPUTED ** An issue was     discovered in ip_ra_control in net/ipv4/ip_sockglue.c     in the Linux kernel through 5.1.5. There is an     unchecked kmalloc of new_ra, which might allow an     attacker to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and system crash). NOTE: this is disputed     because new_ra is never used if it is     NULL.(CVE-2019-12381)** DISPUTED ** An issue was     discovered in the MPT3COMMAND case in _ctl_ioctl_main     in drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_ctl.c in the Linux     kernel through 5.1.5. It allows local users to cause a     denial of service or possibly have unspecified other     impact by changing the value of ioc_number between two     kernel reads of that value, aka a 'double fetch'     vulnerability. NOTE: a third party reports that this is     unexploitable because the doubly fetched value is not     used.(CVE-2019-12456)An issue was discovered in the     Linux kernel before 4.20.15. The nfc_llcp_build_tlv     function in netfc/llcp_commands.c may return NULL. If     the caller does not check for this, it will trigger a     NULL pointer dereference. This will cause denial of     service. This affects nfc_llcp_build_gb in     netfc/llcp_core.c.(CVE-2019-12818)An issue was     discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.0. The function
    __mdiobus_register() in driverset/phy/mdio_bus.c calls     put_device(), which will trigger a fixed_mdio_bus_init     use-after-free. This will cause a denial of     service.(CVE-2019-12819)A NULL pointer dereference     vulnerability in the function     nfc_genl_deactivate_target() in netfcetlink.c in the     Linux kernel before 5.1.13 can be triggered by a     malicious user-mode program that omits certain NFC     attributes, leading to denial of     service.(CVE-2019-12984)In the Linux kernel before     5.1.17, ptrace_link in kernel/ptrace.c mishandles the     recording of the credentials of a process that wants to     create a ptrace relationship, which allows local users     to obtain root access by leveraging certain scenarios     with a parent-child process relationship, where a     parent drops privileges and calls execve (potentially     allowing control by an attacker). One contributing     factor is an object lifetime issue (which can also     cause a panic). Another contributing factor is     incorrect marking of a ptrace relationship as     privileged, which is exploitable through (for example)     Polkit's pkexec helper with PTRACE_TRACEME. NOTE:
    SELinux deny_ptrace might be a usable workaround in     some environments.(CVE-2019-13272)In     parse_hid_report_descriptor in     drivers/input/tablet/gtco.c in the Linux kernel through     5.2.1, a malicious USB device can send an HID report     that triggers an out-of-bounds write during generation     of debugging messages.(CVE-2019-13631)In the Linux     kernel through 5.2.1 on the powerpc platform, when     hardware transactional memory is disabled, a local user     can cause a denial of service (TM Bad Thing exception     and system crash) via a sigreturn() system call that     sends a crafted signal frame. This affects     arch/powerpc/kernel/signal_32.c and     arch/powerpc/kernel/signal_64.c.(CVE-2019-13648)In the     Linux kernel before 5.2.3, set_geometry in     drivers/block/floppy.c does not validate the sect and     head fields, as demonstrated by an integer overflow and     out-of-bounds read. It can be triggered by an     unprivileged local user when a floppy disk has been     inserted. NOTE: QEMU creates the floppy device by     default.(CVE-2019-14283)In the Linux kernel before     5.2.3, drivers/block/floppy.c allows a denial of     service by setup_format_params division-by-zero. Two     consecutive ioctls can trigger the bug: the first one     should set the drive geometry with .sect and .rate     values that make F_SECT_PER_TRACK be zero. Next, the     floppy format operation should be called. It can be     triggered by an unprivileged local user even when a     floppy disk has not been inserted. NOTE: QEMU creates     the floppy device by default.(CVE-2019-14284)In the     Linux kernel before 4.16.4, a double-locking error in     drivers/usb/dwc3/gadget.c may potentially cause a     deadlock with f_hid.(CVE-2019-14763)An issue was     discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.2.6. There is a     use-after-free caused by a malicious USB device in the     drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c driver because     drivers/media/radio/radio-raremono.c does not properly     allocate memory.(CVE-2019-15211)An issue was discovered     in the Linux kernel before 5.0.9. There is a     use-after-free in atalk_proc_exit, related to     net/appletalk/atalk_proc.c, net/appletalk/ddp.c, and     net/appletalk/sysctl_net_atalk.c.(CVE-2019-15292)A flaw     was found in the way the sit_init_net function in the     Linux kernel handled resource cleanup on errors. This     flaw allows an attacker to use the error conditions to     crash the system.(CVE-2019-16994)Note:

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP1 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed :

CVE-2018-5390 aka 'SegmentSmack': A remote attacker even with relatively low bandwidth could have caused lots of CPU usage by triggering the worst case scenario during IP and/or TCP fragment reassembly (bsc#1102340)

CVE-2018-7191: In the tun subsystem in the Linux kernel, dev_get_valid_name was not called before register_netdevice. This allowed local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and panic) via an ioctl(TUNSETIFF) call with a dev name containing a / character. (bnc#1135603)

CVE-2018-20836: A race condition in smp_task_timedout() and smp_task_done() in drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_expander.c, could have lead to a use-after-free. (bnc#1134395)

CVE-2019-12614: An unchecked kstrdup might have allowed an attacker to cause denial of service (a NULL pointer dereference and system crash).
(bnc#1137194)

CVE-2019-12818: The nfc_llcp_build_tlv function in net/nfc/llcp_commands.c may have returned NULL. If the caller did not check for this, it would trigger a NULL pointer dereference. This would cause denial of service. (bnc#1138293)

CVE-2019-12456: An issue in the MPT3COMMAND case in _ctl_ioctl_main() allowed local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact by changing the value of ioc_number between two kernel reads of that value, aka a 'double fetch' vulnerability.
(bsc#1136922)

CVE-2019-11487: An attacker could have triggered use-after-free via page reference count overflow on slow filesystems with at least of 140 GiB of RAM available. (bnc#1133190)

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

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 kernel version 4.12.14 was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed :

CVE-2019-10638: Attackers used to be able to track the Linux kernel by the IP ID values the kernel produces for connection-less protocols.
When such traffic was sent to multiple destination IP addresses, it was possible to obtain hash collisions (of indices to the counter array) and thereby obtain the hashing key (via enumeration). An attack could have been conducted by hosting a crafted web page that uses WebRTC or gQUIC to force UDP traffic to attacker-controlled IP addresses. [bnc#1140575]

CVE-2019-10639: The Linux kernel used to allow Information Exposure (partial kernel address disclosure), leading to a KASLR bypass.
Specifically, it was possible to extract the KASLR kernel image offset using the IP ID values the kernel produces for connection-less protocols. When such traffic was sent to multiple destination IP addresses, it was possible to obtain hash collisions (of indices to the counter array) and thereby obtain the hashing key (via enumeration). This key contains enough bits from a kernel address (of a static variable) so when the key was extracted (via enumeration), the offset of the kernel image was exposed. This attack could be carried out remotely by the attacker forcing the target device to send UDP or ICMP traffic to attacker-controlled IP addresses. Forcing a server to send UDP traffic is trivial if the server is a DNS server.
ICMP traffic is trivial if the server answers ICMP Echo requests (ping). For client targets, if the target visits the attacker's web page, then WebRTC or gQUIC can be used to force UDP traffic to attacker-controlled IP addresses. [bnc#1140577]

CVE-2018-20836: A race condition used to exist in smp_task_timedout() and smp_task_done() in drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_expander.c, leading to a use-after-free. [bnc#1134395]

CVE-2019-10126: A heap-based buffer overflow in the wireless driver code was fixed. This issue might have lead to memory corruption and possibly other consequences. [bnc#1136935]

CVE-2019-11599: The coredump implementation did not use locking or other mechanisms to prevent vma layout or vma flags changes while it ran, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information, cause a denial of service, or possibly have unspecified other impact by triggering a race condition with mmget_not_zero or get_task_mm calls.
[bnc#1131645].

CVE-2019-12614: There was an unchecked kstrdup of prop->name on PowerPC platforms, which allowed an attacker to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash). [bnc#1137194]

CVE-2018-16871: A flaw was found in the NFS implementation. An attacker who was able to mount an exported NFS filesystem was able to trigger a NULL pointer dereference by an invalid NFS sequence. This could panic the machine and deny access to the NFS server. Any outstanding disk writes to the NFS server will were lost.
[bnc#1137103]

CVE-2019-12819: The function __mdiobus_register() used to call put_device(), which would trigger a fixed_mdio_bus_init use-after-free error. This would cause a denial of service. [bnc#1138291]

CVE-2019-12818: The nfc_llcp_build_tlv function in net/nfc/llcp_commands.c may return NULL. If the caller did not check for this, it could trigger a NULL pointer dereference. This would cause denial of service. [bnc#1138293]

CVE-2019-12456: An issue in the MPT3COMMAND case in _ctl_ioctl_main() allowed local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact by changing the value of ioc_number between two kernel reads of that value, aka a 'double fetch' vulnerability.
[bsc#1136922]

CVE-2019-12380: An issue was in the EFI subsystem existed that mishandled memory allocation failures. Note, however, that all relevant code runs only at boot-time, before any user processes are started. Therefore, there was no possibility for an unprivileged user to exploit this issue. [bnc#1136598]

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

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

The following security bugs were fixed :

CVE-2019-10638: In the Linux kernel, a device could be tracked by an attacker using the IP ID values the kernel produces for connection-less protocols (e.g., UDP and ICMP). When such traffic was sent to multiple destination IP addresses, it was possible to obtain hash collisions (of indices to the counter array) and thereby obtain the hashing key (via enumeration). An attack may have been conducted by hosting a crafted web page that uses WebRTC or gQUIC to force UDP traffic to attacker-controlled IP addresses (bnc#1140575 1140577).

Forcing a server to send UDP traffic is trivial if the server is a DNS server. ICMP traffic is trivial if the server answers ICMP Echo requests (ping). For client targets, if the target visited the attacker's web page, then WebRTC or gQUIC could be used to force UDP traffic to attacker-controlled IP addresses. NOTE: this attack against KASLR became viable because IP ID generation was changed to have a dependency on an address associated with a network namespace (bnc#1140577).

CVE-2019-10126: A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A heap based buffer overflow in mwifiex_uap_parse_tail_ies function in drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/ie.c might have lead to memory corruption and possibly other consequences (bnc#1136935).

CVE-2018-20836: An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel There was a race condition in smp_task_timedout() and smp_task_done() in drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_expander.c, leading to a use-after-free (bnc#1134395).

CVE-2019-11599: The coredump implementation in the Linux kernel did not use locking or other mechanisms to prevent vma layout or vma flags changes while it ran, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information, cause a denial of service, or possibly have unspecified other impact by triggering a race condition with mmget_not_zero or get_task_mm call. This is related to fs/userfaultfd.c, mm/mmap.c, fs/proc/task_mmu.c, and drivers/infiniband/core/uverbs_main.c (bnc#1131645 1133738).

CVE-2019-12614: An issue was discovered in dlpar_parse_cc_property in arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/dlpar.c in the Linux kernel There was an unchecked kstrdup of prop-name, which might have allowed an attacker to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) (bnc#1137194).

CVE-2019-12819: An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel The function __mdiobus_register() in drivers/net/phy/mdio_bus.c calls put_device(), which would trigger a fixed_mdio_bus_init use-after-free. This would cause a denial of service (bnc#1138291).

CVE-2019-12818: An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel The nfc_llcp_build_tlv function in net/nfc/llcp_commands.c may return NULL. If the caller did not check for this, it would trigger a NULL pointer dereference. This would cause a denial of service. This affected nfc_llcp_build_gb in net/nfc/llcp_core.c (bnc#1138293).

CVE-2019-12456: A double-fetch bug in _ctl_ioctl_main() could lead to a local denial of service attack (bsc#1136922 CVE-2019-12456).

CVE-2019-12380: An issue was discovered in the efi subsystem in the Linux kernel phys_efi_set_virtual_address_map in arch/x86/platform/efi/efi.c and efi_call_phys_prolog in arch/x86/platform/efi/efi_64.c mishandle memory allocation failures.
NOTE: This id is disputed as not being an issue because ;All the code touched by the referenced commit runs only at boot, before any user processes are started. Therefore, there is no possibility for an unprivileged user to control it (bnc#1136598).

CVE-2019-11487: The Linux kernel before allowed page-_refcount reference count overflow, with resultant use-after-free issues, if about 140 GiB of RAM exists. This is related to fs/fuse/dev.c, fs/pipe.c, fs/splice.c, include/linux/mm.h, include/linux/pipe_fs_i.h, kernel/trace/trace.c, mm/gup.c, and mm/hugetlb.c.

(bsc#1103186) CVE-2019-11085: Insufficient input validation in Kernel Mode Driver in Intel(R) i915 Graphics for Linux may have allowed an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. (bsc#1135278)

CVE-2019-11815: An issue was discovered in rds_tcp_kill_sock in net/rds/tcp.c in the Linux kernel There was a race condition leading to a use-after-free, related to net namespace cleanup. (bsc#1135278)

CVE-2019-11884: The do_hidp_sock_ioctl function in net/bluetooth/hidp/sock.c in the Linux kernel allowed a local user to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a hidPCONNADD command, because a name field may not end with a '\0' character. (bsc#1134848)

CVE-2019-11811: An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel There was a use-after-free upon attempted read access to /proc/ioports after the ipmi_si module was removed, related to drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c, drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_mem_io.c, and drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_port_io.c. (bsc#1134397)

CVE-2019-11486: The Siemens R3964 line discipline driver in drivers/tty/n_r3964.c in the Linux kernel has multiple race conditions. (bsc#1133188)

CVE-2019-9003: In the Linux kernel, attackers could trigger a drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c use-after-free and OOPS by arranging for certain simultaneous execution of the code, as demonstrated by a 'service ipmievd restart' loop. (bsc#1126704)

CVE-2018-16880: A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's handle_rx() function in the [vhost_net] driver. A malicious virtual guest, under specific conditions, could trigger an out-of-bounds write in a kmalloc-8 slab on a virtual host which may have lead to a kernel memory corruption and a system panic. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out.(bsc#1122767)

CVE-2019-9503: An issue was discoved which meant that brcmfmac frame validation could be bypassed. (bsc#1132828)

CVE-2019-9500: An issue was discovered that lead to brcmfmac heap buffer overflow. (bsc#1132681)

CVE-2019-8564: An issue was discoved which meant that brcmfmac frame validation could be bypassed. (bsc#1132673)

CVE-2017-5753: Systems with microprocessors utilizing speculative execution and branch prediction may have allowed unauthorized disclosure of information to an attacker with local user access via a side-channel analysis.

CVE-2019-3882: A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's vfio interface implementation that permitted violation of the user's locked memory limit. If a device was bound to a vfio driver, such as vfio-pci, and the local attacker is administratively granted ownership of the device, it may have caused a system memory exhaustion and thus a denial of service (DoS). (bsc#1131427)
