Use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel exploitable by a local attacker due to reuse of a DCCP socket with an attached dccps_hc_tx_ccid object as a listener after being released. Fixed in Ubuntu Linux kernel 5.4.0-51.56, 5.3.0-68.63, 4.15.0-121.123, 4.4.0-193.224, 3.13.0.182.191 and 3.2.0-149.196.

An update of the linux package has been released.

The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 5.4.149-73.259. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.4-2024-073 advisory.

    A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. When reusing a socket with an attached dccps_hc_tx_ccid as a     listener, the socket will be used after being released leading to denial of service (DoS) or a potential     code execution. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as     well as system availability. (CVE-2020-16119)

    A flaw in the processing of received ICMP errors (ICMP fragment needed and ICMP redirect) in the Linux     kernel functionality was found to allow the ability to quickly scan open UDP ports. This flaw allows an     off-path remote user to effectively bypass the source port UDP randomization. The highest threat from this     vulnerability is to confidentiality and possibly integrity, because software that relies on UDP source     port randomization are indirectly affected as well. (CVE-2021-20322)

    A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel. Missing size validations on inbound SCTP packets may allow     the kernel to read uninitialized memory. (CVE-2021-3655)

    In ip_check_mc_rcu of igmp.c, there is a possible use after free due to improper locking. This could lead     to local escalation of privilege when opening and closing inet sockets with no additional execution     privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android     kernelAndroid ID: A-112551163References: Upstream kernel (CVE-2022-20141)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.

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

  - Dm-verity is used for extending root-of-trust to root filesystems. LoadPin builds on this property to     restrict module/firmware loads to just the trusted root filesystem. Device-mapper table reloads currently     allow users with root privileges to switch out the target with an equivalent dm-linear target and bypass     verification till reboot. This allows root to bypass LoadPin and can be used to load untrusted and     unverified kernel modules and firmware, which implies arbitrary kernel execution and persistence for     peripherals that do not verify firmware updates.

  - An issue was found in the Linux kernel in nf_conntrack_irc where the message handling can be confused and     incorrectly matches the message. A firewall may be able to be bypassed when users are using unencrypted     IRC with nf_conntrack_irc configured. (CVE-2022-2663)

  - An out-of-bounds memory read flaw was found in the Linux kernel's BPF subsystem in how a user calls the     bpf_tail_call function with a key larger than the max_entries of the map. This flaw allows a local user to     gain unauthorized access to data. (CVE-2022-2905)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel implementation of proxied virtualized TPM devices. On a system where     virtualized TPM devices are configured (this is not the default) a local attacker can create a use-after-     free and create a situation where it may be possible to escalate privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-2977)

  - A race condition was found in the Linux kernel's IP framework for transforming packets (XFRM subsystem)     when multiple calls to xfrm_probe_algs occurred simultaneously.

The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 4.14.248-129.473. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS-2021-1539 advisory.

  - Use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel exploitable by a local attacker due to reuse of a DCCP     socket with an attached dccps_hc_tx_ccid object as a listener after being released. Fixed in Ubuntu Linux     kernel 5.4.0-51.56, 5.3.0-68.63, 4.15.0-121.123, 4.4.0-193.224, 3.13.0.182.191 and 3.2.0-149.196.
    (CVE-2020-16119)

  - An issue was discovered in Linux: KVM through Improper handling of VM_IO|VM_PFNMAP vmas in KVM can bypass     RO checks and can lead to pages being freed while still accessible by the VMM and guest. This allows users     with the ability to start and control a VM to read/write random pages of memory and can result in local     privilege escalation. (CVE-2021-22543)

  - In the Linux kernel through 5.13.7, an unprivileged BPF program can obtain sensitive information from     kernel memory via a Speculative Store Bypass side-channel attack because a certain preempting store     operation does not necessarily occur before a store operation that has an attacker-controlled value.
    (CVE-2021-35477)

  - .A flaw was found in the CAN BCM networking protocol in the Linux kernel, where a local attacker can abuse     a flaw in the CAN subsystem to corrupt memory, crash the system or escalate privileges. This race     condition in net/can/bcm.c in the Linux kernel allows for local privilege escalation to root.
    (CVE-2021-3609)

  - A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel in versions prior to v5.14-rc1. Missing size validations on     inbound SCTP packets may allow the kernel to read uninitialized memory. (CVE-2021-3655)

  - A lack of CPU resource in the Linux kernel tracing module functionality in versions prior to 5.14-rc3 was     found in the way user uses trace ring buffer in a specific way. Only privileged local users (with     CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability) could use this flaw to starve the resources causing denial of service.
    (CVE-2021-3679)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's OverlayFS subsystem in the way the user mounts the TmpFS filesystem     with OverlayFS. This flaw allows a local user to gain access to hidden files that should not be     accessible. (CVE-2021-3732)

  - A race problem was seen in the vt_k_ioctl in drivers/tty/vt/vt_ioctl.c in the Linux kernel, which may     cause an out of bounds read in vt as the write access to vc_mode is not protected by lock-in vt_ioctl     (KDSETMDE). The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality. (CVE-2021-3753)

  - arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_rtas.c in the Linux kernel through 5.13.5 on the powerpc platform allows KVM guest     OS users to cause host OS memory corruption via rtas_args.nargs, aka CID-f62f3c20647e. (CVE-2021-37576)

  - In drivers/char/virtio_console.c in the Linux kernel before 5.13.4, data corruption or loss can be     triggered by an untrusted device that supplies a buf->len value exceeding the buffer size. NOTE: the     vendor indicates that the cited data corruption is not a vulnerability in any existing use case; the     length validation was added solely for robustness in the face of anomalous host OS behavior     (CVE-2021-38160)

  - arch/x86/kvm/mmu/paging_tmpl.h in the Linux kernel before 5.12.11 incorrectly computes the access     permissions of a shadow page, leading to a missing guest protection page fault. (CVE-2021-38198)

  - drivers/usb/host/max3421-hcd.c in the Linux kernel before 5.13.6 allows physically proximate attackers to     cause a denial of service (use-after-free and panic) by removing a MAX-3421 USB device in certain     situations. (CVE-2021-38204)

  - drivers/net/ethernet/xilinx/xilinx_emaclite.c in the Linux kernel before 5.13.3 makes it easier for     attackers to defeat an ASLR protection mechanism because it prints a kernel pointer (i.e., the real IOMEM     pointer). (CVE-2021-38205)

  - A race condition was discovered in ext4_write_inline_data_end in fs/ext4/inline.c in the ext4 subsystem in     the Linux kernel through 5.13.13. (CVE-2021-40490)

  - In ip_check_mc_rcu of igmp.c, there is a possible use after free due to improper locking. This could lead     to local escalation of privilege when opening and closing inet sockets with no additional execution     privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android     kernelAndroid ID: A-112551163References: Upstream kernel (CVE-2022-20141)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.13.3. lib/seq_buf.c has a seq_buf_putmem_hex buffer     overflow. (CVE-2023-28772)

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

  - ** DISPUTED ** In drivers/char/virtio_console.c in the Linux kernel before 5.13.4, data corruption or loss     can be triggered by an untrusted device that supplies a buf->len value exceeding the buffer size. NOTE:
    the vendor indicates that the cited data corruption is not a vulnerability in any existing use case; the     length validation was added solely for robustness in the face of anomalous host OS behavior.
    (CVE-2021-38160)

  - In kernel/bpf/hashtab.c in the Linux kernel through 5.13.8, there is an integer overflow and out-of-bounds     write when many elements are placed in a single bucket. NOTE: exploitation might be impractical without     the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability. (CVE-2021-38166)

  - fs/nfs/nfs4client.c in the Linux kernel before 5.13.4 has incorrect connection-setup ordering, which     allows operators of remote NFSv4 servers to cause a denial of service (hanging of mounts) by arranging for     those servers to be unreachable during trunking detection. (CVE-2021-38199)

  - A race condition was discovered in ext4_write_inline_data_end in fs/ext4/inline.c in the ext4 subsystem in     the Linux kernel through 5.13.13. (CVE-2021-40490)

  - loop_rw_iter in fs/io_uring.c in the Linux kernel 5.10 through 5.14.6 allows local users to gain     privileges by using IORING_OP_PROVIDE_BUFFERS to trigger a free of a kernel buffer, as demonstrated by     using /proc//maps for exploitation. (CVE-2021-41073)
