dp_link_settings_write in drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/amdgpu_dm/amdgpu_dm_debugfs.c in the Linux kernel through 5.14.14 allows a heap-based buffer overflow by an attacker who can write a string to the AMD GPU display drivers debug filesystem. There are no checks on size within parse_write_buffer_into_params when it uses the size of copy_from_user to copy a userspace buffer into a 40-byte heap buffer.

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

The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5265-1 advisory.

    Jeremy Cline discovered a use-after-free in the nouveau graphics driver of the Linux kernel during device     removal. A privileged or physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system     crash). (CVE-2020-27820)

    It was discovered that the Bluetooth subsystem in the Linux kernel contained a use-after-free     vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly     execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-3640)

    Likang Luo discovered that a race condition existed in the Bluetooth subsystem of the Linux kernel,     leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service     (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-3752)

    It was discovered that the SCTP protocol implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly verify VTAGs     in some situations. A remote attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (connection     disassociation). (CVE-2021-3772)

    It was discovered that the eBPF implementation in the Linux kernel contained a race condition around read-     only maps. A privileged attacker could use this to modify read-only maps. (CVE-2021-4001)

    It was discovered that the NFS server implementation in the Linux kernel contained an out-of-bounds write     vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly     execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-4090)

    Felix Wilhelm discovered that the KVM implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle exit     events from AMD Secure Encrypted Virtualization-Encrypted State (SEV-ES) guest VMs. An attacker in a guest     VM could use this to cause a denial of service (host kernel crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code in     the host kernel. (CVE-2021-4093)

    Lin Ma discovered that the NFC Controller Interface (NCI) implementation in the Linux kernel contained a     race condition, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a     denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-4202)

    It was discovered that the AMD Radeon GPU driver in the Linux kernel did not properly validate writes in     the debugfs file system. A privileged attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash)     or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-42327)

    Luo Likang discovered that the FireDTV Firewire driver in the Linux kernel did not properly perform bounds     checking in some situations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash)     or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-42739)

    It was discovered that the NFC subsystem in the Linux kernel contained a use-after-free vulnerability in     its NFC Controller Interface (NCI) implementation. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a     denial of service (system crash) or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-3760)

    It was discovered that the SCTP protocol implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly verify VTAGs     in some situations. A remote attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (connection     disassociation). (CVE-2021-3772)

    It was discovered that the KVM implementation for POWER8 processors in the Linux kernel did not properly     keep track if a wakeup event could be resolved by a guest. An attacker in a guest VM could possibly use     this to cause a denial of service (host OS crash). (CVE-2021-43056)

    It was discovered that the TIPC Protocol implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly validate     MSG_CRYPTO messages in some situations. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system     crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-43267)

    It was discovered that the ISDN CAPI implementation in the Linux kernel contained a race condition in     certain situations that could trigger an array out-of-bounds bug. A privileged local attacker could     possibly use this to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-43389)
