An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.4.17. drivers/spi/spi-dw.c allows attackers to cause a panic via concurrent calls to dw_spi_irq and dw_spi_transfer_one, aka CID-19b61392c5a8.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - kernel: out-of-bounds write in __btrfs_map_block in fs/btrfs/volumes.c (CVE-2019-19816)

  - Kernel: use-after-free in btf_dump_name_dups in tools/lib/bpf/btf_dump.c (CVE-2022-3534)

  - drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_scsi_host.c in the Linux kernel before 4.16 allows local users to cause a denial     of service (ata qc leak) by triggering certain failure conditions. NOTE: a third party disputes the     relevance of this report because the failure can only occur for physically proximate attackers who unplug     SAS Host Bus Adapter cables (CVE-2018-10021)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

This update syncs the RT kernel from the SUSE Linux Enterprise 15-SP2 codestream. This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-15-SP2:Update update project.

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

CVE-2015-8839

A race condition was found in the ext4 filesystem implementation. A local user could exploit this to cause a denial of service (filesystem corruption).

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-2019-5108

Mitchell Frank of Cisco discovered that when the IEEE 802.11 (WiFi) stack was used in AP mode with roaming, it would trigger roaming for a newly associated station before the station was authenticated. An attacker within range of the AP could use this to cause a denial of service, either by filling up a switching table or by redirecting traffic away from other stations.

CVE-2019-19319

Jungyeon discovered that a crafted filesystem can cause the ext4 implementation to deallocate or reallocate journal blocks. A user permitted to mount filesystems could use this to cause a denial of service (crash), or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-19447

It was discovered that the ext4 filesystem driver did not safely handle unlinking of an inode that, due to filesystem corruption, already has a link count of 0. An attacker able to mount arbitrary ext4 volumes could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-19768

Tristan Madani reported a race condition in the blktrace debug facility that could result in a use-after-free. A local user able to trigger removal of block devices could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (crash) or for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-20636

The syzbot tool found that the input subsystem did not fully validate keycode changes, which could result in a heap out-of-bounds write. A local user permitted to access the device node for an input or VT device could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or for privilege escalation.

CVE-2020-0009

Jann Horn reported that the Android ashmem driver did not prevent read-only files from being memory-mapped and then remapped as read-write. However, Android drivers are not enabled in Debian kernel configurations.

CVE-2020-0543

Researchers at VU Amsterdam discovered that on some Intel CPUs supporting the RDRAND and RDSEED instructions, part of a random value generated by these instructions may be used in a later speculative execution on any core of the same physical CPU. Depending on how these instructions are used by applications, a local user or VM guest could use this to obtain sensitive information such as cryptographic keys from other users or VMs.

This vulnerability can be mitigated by a microcode update, either as part of system firmware (BIOS) or through the intel-microcode package in Debian's non-free archive section. This kernel update only provides reporting of the vulnerability and the option to disable the mitigation if it is not needed.

CVE-2020-1749

Xiumei Mu reported that some network protocols that can run on top of IPv6 would bypass the Transformation (XFRM) layer used by IPsec, IPcomp/IPcomp6, IPIP, and IPv6 Mobility. This could result in disclosure of information over the network, since it would not be encrypted or routed according to the system policy.

CVE-2020-2732

Paulo Bonzini discovered that the KVM implementation for Intel processors did not properly handle instruction emulation for L2 guests when nested virtualization is enabled. This could allow an L2 guest to cause privilege escalation, denial of service, or information leaks in the L1 guest.

CVE-2020-8647, CVE-2020-8649

The Hulk Robot tool found a potential MMIO out-of-bounds access in the vgacon driver. A local user permitted to access a virtual terminal (/dev/tty1 etc.) on a system using the vgacon driver could use this to cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2020-8648

The syzbot tool found a race condition in the the virtual terminal driver, which could result in a use-after-free. A local user permitted to access a virtual terminal could use this to cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2020-9383

Jordy Zomer reported an incorrect range check in the floppy driver which could lead to a static out-of-bounds access. A local user permitted to access a floppy drive could use this to cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2020-10690

It was discovered that the PTP hardware clock subsystem did not properly manage device lifetimes. Removing a PTP hardware clock from the system while a user process was using it could lead to a use-after-free. The security impact of this is unclear.

CVE-2020-10751

Dmitry Vyukov reported that the SELinux subsystem did not properly handle validating multiple messages, which could allow a privileged attacker to bypass SELinux netlink restrictions.

CVE-2020-10942

It was discovered that the vhost_net driver did not properly validate the type of sockets set as back-ends. A local user permitted to access /dev/vhost-net could use this to cause a stack corruption via crafted system calls, resulting in denial of service (crash) or possibly privilege escalation.

CVE-2020-11494

It was discovered that the slcan (serial line CAN) network driver did not fully initialise CAN headers for received packets, resulting in an information leak from the kernel to user-space or over the CAN network.

CVE-2020-11565

Entropy Moe reported that the shared memory filesystem (tmpfs) did not correctly handle an 'mpol' mount option specifying an empty node list, leading to a stack-based out-of-bounds write. If user namespaces are enabled, a local user could use this to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2020-11608, CVE-2020-11609, CVE-2020-11668

It was discovered that the ov519, stv06xx, and xirlink_cit media drivers did not properly validate USB device descriptors. A physically present user with a specially constructed USB device could use this to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2020-12114

Piotr Krysiuk discovered a race condition between the umount and pivot_root operations in the filesystem core (vfs). A local user with the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability in any user namespace could use this to cause a denial of service (crash).

CVE-2020-12464

Kyungtae Kim reported a race condition in the USB core that can result in a use-after-free. It is not clear how this can be exploited, but it could result in a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or privilege escalation.

CVE-2020-12652

Tom Hatskevich reported a bug in the mptfusion storage drivers. An ioctl handler fetched a parameter from user memory twice, creating a race condition which could result in incorrect locking of internal data structures. A local user permitted to access /dev/mptctl could use this to cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or for privilege escalation.

CVE-2020-12653

It was discovered that the mwifiex WiFi driver did not sufficiently validate scan requests, resulting a potential heap buffer overflow. A local user with CAP_NET_ADMIN capability could use this to cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2020-12654

It was discovered that the mwifiex WiFi driver did not sufficiently validate WMM parameters received from an access point (AP), resulting a potential heap buffer overflow. A malicious AP could use this to cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly to execute code on a vulnerable system.

CVE-2020-12769

It was discovered that the spi-dw SPI host driver did not properly serialise access to its internal state. The security impact of this is unclear, and this driver is not included in Debian's binary packages.

CVE-2020-12770

It was discovered that the sg (SCSI generic) driver did not correctly release internal resources in a particular error case. A local user permitted to access an sg device could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion).

CVE-2020-12826

Adam Zabrocki reported a weakness in the signal subsystem's permission checks. A parent process can choose an arbitary signal for a child process to send when it exits, but if the parent has executed a new program then the default SIGCHLD signal is sent. A local user permitted to run a program for several days could bypass this check, execute a setuid program, and then send an arbitrary signal to it.
Depending on the setuid programs installed, this could have some security impact.

CVE-2020-13143

Kyungtae Kim reported a potential heap out-of-bounds write in the USB gadget subsystem. A local user permitted to write to the gadget configuration filesystem could use this to cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or potentially for privilege escalation.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 3.16.84-1.

This flaw occurs while     importing the Commercial IP Security Option (CIPSO)     protocol's category bitmap into the SELinux extensible     bitmap via the' ebitmap_netlbl_import' routine. While     processing the CIPSO restricted bitmap tag in the     'cipso_v4_parsetag_rbm' routine, it sets the security     attribute to indicate that the category bitmap is     present, even if it has not been allocated. This issue     leads to a NULL pointer dereference issue while     importing the same category bitmap into SELinux. This     flaw allows a remote network user to crash the system     kernel, resulting in a denial of     service.(CVE-2020-10711)

  - A signal access-control issue was discovered in the     Linux kernel before 5.6.5, aka CID-7395ea4e65c2.
    Because exec_id in include/linux/sched.h is only 32     bits, an integer overflow can interfere with a     do_notify_parent protection mechanism. A child process     can send an arbitrary signal to a parent process in a     different security domain. Exploitation limitations     include the amount of elapsed time before an integer     overflow occurs, and the lack of scenarios where     signals to a parent process present a substantial     operational threat.(CVE-2020-12826)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before     5.4.17. drivers/spi/spi-dw.c allows attackers to cause     a panic via concurrent calls to dw_spi_irq and     dw_spi_transfer_one, aka     CID-19b61392c5a8.(CVE-2020-12769)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through     5.6.11. sg_write lacks an sg_remove_request call in a     certain failure case, aka     CID-83c6f2390040.(CVE-2020-12770)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through     5.6.11. btree_gc_coalesce in drivers/md/bcache/btree.c     has a deadlock if a coalescing operation     fails.(CVE-2020-12771)

  - The __mptctl_ioctl function in     drivers/message/fusion/mptctl.c in the Linux kernel     before 5.4.14 allows local users to hold an incorrect     lock during the ioctl operation and trigger a race     condition, i.e., a 'double fetch' vulnerability, aka     CID-28d76df18f0a. NOTE: the vendor states 'The security     impact of this bug is not as bad as it could have been     because these operations are all privileged and root     already has enormous destructive     power.'(CVE-2020-12652)

  - An issue was discovered in xfs_agf_verify in     fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_alloc.c in the Linux kernel through     5.6.10. Attackers may trigger a sync of excessive     duration via an XFS v5 image with crafted metadata, aka     CID-d0c7feaf8767.(CVE-2020-12655)

  - A pivot_root race condition in fs amespace.c in the     Linux kernel 4.4.x before 4.4.221, 4.9.x before     4.9.221, 4.14.x before 4.14.178, 4.19.x before     4.19.119, and 5.x before 5.3 allows local users to     cause a denial of service (panic) by corrupting a     mountpoint reference counter.(CVE-2020-12114)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before     5.6.5. There is a use-after-free in block/bfq-iosched.c     related to bfq_idle_slice_timer_body.(CVE-2020-12657)

  - usb_sg_cancel in drivers/usb/core/message.c in the     Linux kernel before 5.6.8 has a use-after-free because     a transfer occurs without a reference, aka     CID-056ad39ee925.(CVE-2020-12464)

  - An issue was found in Linux kernel before 5.5.4. The     mwifiex_cmd_append_vsie_tlv() function in drivers     et/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/scan.c allows local users     to gain privileges or cause a denial of service because     of an incorrect memcpy and buffer overflow, aka     CID-b70261a288ea.(CVE-2020-12653)

  - gss_mech_free in net/sunrpc/auth_gss/gss_mech_switch.c     in the rpcsec_gss_krb5 implementation in the Linux     kernel through 5.6.10 lacks certain domain_release     calls, leading to a memory leak.(CVE-2020-12656)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before     5.6.7. xdp_umem_reg in net/xdp/xdp_umem.c has an     out-of-bounds write (by a user with the CAP_NET_ADMIN     capability) because of a lack of headroom     validation.(CVE-2020-12659)

  - An array overflow was discovered in mt76_add_fragment     in drivers et/wireless/mediatek/mt76/dma.c in the Linux     kernel before 5.5.10, aka CID-b102f0c522cf. An     oversized packet with too many rx fragments can corrupt     memory of adjacent pages.(CVE-2020-12465)

  - An issue was found in Linux kernel before 5.5.4.
    mwifiex_ret_wmm_get_status() in drivers     et/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/wmm.c allows a remote AP to     trigger a heap-based buffer overflow because of an     incorrect memcpy, aka CID-3a9b153c5591.(CVE-2020-12654)

  - In the Linux kernel through 5.6.7 on the s390 platform,     code execution may occur because of a race condition,     as demonstrated by code in enable_sacf_uaccess in     arch/s390/lib/uaccess.c that fails to protect against a     concurrent page table upgrade, aka CID-3f777e19d171. A     crash could also occur.(CVE-2020-11884)

  - relay_open in kernel/relay.c in the Linux kernel     through 5.4.1 allows local users to cause a denial of     service (such as relay blockage) by triggering a NULL     alloc_percpu result.(CVE-2019-19462)

  - In the Linux kernel 5.0.21, mounting a crafted btrfs     filesystem image, performing some operations, and     unmounting can lead to a use-after-free in     btrfs_queue_work in     fs/btrfs/async-thread.c.(CVE-2019-19377)

  - In the Linux kernel before 5.5.8, get_raw_socket in     drivers/vhost et.c lacks validation of an sk_family     field, which might allow attackers to trigger kernel     stack corruption via crafted system     calls.(CVE-2020-10942)
