An issue was discovered in drivers/firmware/efi/efi.c in the Linux kernel before 5.4. Incorrect access permissions for the efivar_ssdt ACPI variable could be used by attackers to bypass lockdown or secure boot restrictions, aka CID-1957a85b0032.

An update of the linux package has been released.

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP1 RT kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed :

CVE-2020-10135: Legacy pairing and secure-connections pairing authentication in Bluetooth BR/EDR Core Specification v5.2 and earlier may have allowed an unauthenticated user to complete authentication without pairing credentials via adjacent access. An unauthenticated, adjacent attacker could impersonate a Bluetooth BR/EDR master or slave to pair with a previously paired remote device to successfully complete the authentication procedure without knowing the link key (bnc#1171988).

CVE-2020-0305: In cdev_get of char_dev.c, there is a possible use-after-free due to a race condition. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation (bnc#1174462).

CVE-2019-20908: An issue was discovered in drivers/firmware/efi/efi.c where incorrect access permissions for the efivar_ssdt ACPI variable could be used by attackers to bypass lockdown or secure boot restrictions, aka CID-1957a85b0032 (bnc#1173567).

CVE-2020-10781: zram sysfs resource consumption was fixed (bnc#1173074).

CVE-2020-15780: An issue was discovered in drivers/acpi/acpi_configfs.c where injection of malicious ACPI tables via configfs could be used by attackers to bypass lockdown and secure boot restrictions, aka CID-75b0cea7bf30 (bnc#1173573).

CVE-2020-15393: usbtest_disconnect in drivers/usb/misc/usbtest.c had a memory leak, aka CID-28ebeb8db770 (bnc#1173514).

CVE-2020-12888: The VFIO PCI driver mishandled attempts to access disabled memory space (bnc#1171868).

CVE-2020-10769: A buffer over-read flaw was found in crypto_authenc_extractkeys in crypto/authenc.c in the IPsec Cryptographic algorithm's module, authenc. When a payload longer than 4 bytes, and is not following 4-byte alignment boundary guidelines, it causes a buffer over-read threat, leading to a system crash. This flaw allowed a local attacker with user privileges to cause a denial of service (bnc#1173265).

CVE-2020-10773: A kernel stack information leak on s390/s390x was fixed (bnc#1172999).

CVE-2020-0543: Fixed a side channel attack against special registers which could have resulted in leaking of read values to cores other than the one which called it. This attack is known as Special Register Buffer Data Sampling (SRBDS) or 'CrossTalk' (bsc#1154824).

CVE-2020-13143: Fixed an out-of-bounds read in gadget_dev_desc_UDC_store in drivers/usb/gadget/configfs.c (bsc#1171982).

CVE-2020-12769: Fixed an issue which could have allowed attackers to cause a panic via concurrent calls to dw_spi_irq and dw_spi_transfer_one (bsc#1171983).

CVE-2020-12659: Fixed an out-of-bounds write (by a user with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability) due to improper headroom validation (bsc#1171214).

CVE-2020-12657: An a use-after-free in block/bfq-iosched.c (bsc#1171205).

When a payload longer than 4 bytes, and is not following 4-byte alignment boundary guidelines, it causes a buffer over-read threat, leading to a system crash. This flaw allowed a local attacker with user privileges to cause a denial of service (bnc#1173265).

CVE-2020-10773: A kernel stack information leak on s390/s390x was fixed (bnc#1172999).

CVE-2020-14416: A race condition in tty->disc_data handling in the slip and slcan line discipline could lead to a use-after-free, aka CID-0ace17d56824. This affects drivers/net/slip/slip.c and drivers/net/can/slcan.c (bnc#1162002).

CVE-2020-10768: Indirect branch speculation could have been enabled after it was force-disabled by the PR_SPEC_FORCE_DISABLE prctl command. (bnc#1172783).

CVE-2020-10766: Fixed Rogue cross-process SSBD shutdown, where a Linux scheduler logical bug allows an attacker to turn off the SSBD protection. (bnc#1172781).

CVE-2020-10767: Indirect Branch Prediction Barrier was force-disabled when STIBP is unavailable or enhanced IBRS is available.
(bnc#1172782).

CVE-2020-13974: drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c had an integer overflow if k_ascii is called several times in a row, aka CID-b86dab054059 (bnc#1172775).

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