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.

An update of the linux package has been released.

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.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 9 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: local privileges escalation in kernel/bpf/verifier.c (CVE-2022-23222)

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

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.2.13. nbd_genl_status in drivers/block/nbd.c does     not check the nla_nest_start_noflag return value. (CVE-2019-16089)

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

The version of AOS installed on the remote host is prior to 6.6.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the NXSA-AOS-6.6.2 advisory.

  - Mis-trained branch predictions for return instructions may allow arbitrary speculative code execution     under certain microarchitecture-dependent conditions. (CVE-2022-29900)

  - Intel microprocessor generations 6 to 8 are affected by a new Spectre variant that is able to bypass their     retpoline mitigation in the kernel to leak arbitrary data. An attacker with unprivileged user access can     hijack return instructions to achieve arbitrary speculative code execution under certain     microarchitecture-dependent conditions. (CVE-2022-29901)

  - 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)

  - In the Linux kernel before 5.17.3, fs/io_uring.c has a use-after-free due to a race condition in io_uring     timeouts. This can be triggered by a local user who has no access to any user namespace; however, the race     condition perhaps can only be exploited infrequently. (CVE-2022-29582)

  - An unprivileged write to the file handler flaw in the Linux kernel's control groups and namespaces     subsystem was found in the way users have access to some less privileged process that are controlled by     cgroups and have higher privileged parent process. It is actually both for cgroup2 and cgroup1 versions of     control groups. A local user could use this flaw to crash the system or escalate their privileges on the     system. (CVE-2021-4197)

  - PAC parsing in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) before 1.19.4 and 1.20.x before 1.20.1 has integer overflows that     may lead to remote code execution (in KDC, kadmind, or a GSS or Kerberos application server) on 32-bit     platforms (which have a resultant heap-based buffer overflow), and cause a denial of service on other     platforms. This occurs in krb5_pac_parse in lib/krb5/krb/pac.c. Heimdal before 7.7.1 has a similar bug.
    (CVE-2022-42898)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's KVM when attempting to set a SynIC IRQ. This issue makes it     possible for a misbehaving VMM to write to SYNIC/STIMER MSRs, causing a NULL pointer dereference. This     flaw allows an unprivileged local attacker on the host to issue specific ioctl calls, causing a kernel     oops condition that results in a denial of service. (CVE-2022-2153)

  - The JsonErrorReportValve in Apache Tomcat 8.5.83, 9.0.40 to 9.0.68 and 10.1.0-M1 to 10.1.1 did not escape     the type, message or description values. In some circumstances these are constructed from user provided     data and it was therefore possible for users to supply values that invalidated or manipulated the JSON     output. (CVE-2022-45143)

  - libexpat before 2.4.9 has a use-after-free in the doContent function in xmlparse.c. (CVE-2022-40674)

  - multipath-tools 0.7.0 through 0.9.x before 0.9.2 allows local users to obtain root access, as exploited     alone or in conjunction with CVE-2022-41973. Local users able to write to UNIX domain sockets can bypass     access controls and manipulate the multipath setup. This can lead to local privilege escalation to root.
    This occurs because an attacker can repeat a keyword, which is mishandled because arithmetic ADD is used     instead of bitwise OR. (CVE-2022-41974)

  - A flaw was found in KVM. When updating a guest's page table entry, vm_pgoff was improperly used as the     offset to get the page's pfn. As vaddr and vm_pgoff are controllable by user-mode processes, this flaw     allows unprivileged local users on the host to write outside the userspace region and potentially corrupt     the kernel, resulting in a denial of service condition. (CVE-2022-1158)

  - The Linux kernel before 5.17.2 mishandles seccomp permissions. The PTRACE_SEIZE code path allows attackers     to bypass intended restrictions on setting the PT_SUSPEND_SECCOMP flag. (CVE-2022-30594)

  - A kernel information leak flaw was identified in the scsi_ioctl function in drivers/scsi/scsi_ioctl.c in     the Linux kernel. This flaw allows a local attacker with a special user privilege (CAP_SYS_ADMIN or     CAP_SYS_RAWIO) to create issues with confidentiality. (CVE-2022-0494)

  - With shadow paging enabled, the INVPCID instruction results in a call to kvm_mmu_invpcid_gva. If INVPCID     is executed with CR0.PG=0, the invlpg callback is not set and the result is a NULL pointer dereference.
    (CVE-2022-1789)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in fs/ext4/namei.c:dx_insert_block() in the Linux kernel's filesystem sub-     component. This flaw allows a local attacker with a user privilege to cause a denial of service.
    (CVE-2022-1184)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.18.14. xfrm_expand_policies in     net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c can cause a refcount to be dropped twice. (CVE-2022-36879)

  - nfqnl_mangle in net/netfilter/nfnetlink_queue.c in the Linux kernel through 5.18.14 allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) because, in the case of an nf_queue verdict with a one-byte     nfta_payload attribute, an skb_pull can encounter a negative skb->len. (CVE-2022-36946)

  - Non-transparent sharing of return predictor targets between contexts in some Intel(R) Processors may allow     an authorized user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2022-26373)

  - It was discovered that when exec'ing from a non-leader thread, armed POSIX CPU timers would be left on a     list but freed, leading to a use-after-free. (CVE-2022-2585)

  - mm/rmap.c in the Linux kernel before 5.19.7 has a use-after-free related to leaf anon_vma double reuse.
    (CVE-2022-42703)

  - 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)

  - It was discovered that the cls_route filter implementation in the Linux kernel would not remove an old     filter from the hashtable before freeing it if its handle had the value 0. (CVE-2022-2588)

  - A race condition was found the Linux kernel in perf_event_open() which can be exploited by an unprivileged     user to gain root privileges. The bug allows to build several exploit primitives such as kernel address     information leak, arbitrary execution, etc. (CVE-2022-1729)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel's FUSE filesystem in the way a user triggers write().
    This flaw allows a local user to gain unauthorized access to data from the FUSE filesystem, resulting in     privilege escalation. (CVE-2022-1011)

  - In Sudo before 1.9.12p2, the sudoedit (aka -e) feature mishandles extra arguments passed in the user-     provided environment variables (SUDO_EDITOR, VISUAL, and EDITOR), allowing a local attacker to append     arbitrary entries to the list of files to process. This can lead to privilege escalation. Affected     versions are 1.8.0 through 1.9.12.p1. The problem exists because a user-specified editor may contain a
    -- argument that defeats a protection mechanism, e.g., an EDITOR='vim -- /path/to/extra/file' value.
    (CVE-2023-22809)

  - When sending malicous data to kernel by ioctl cmd FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO,kernel will write memory out of     bounds. (CVE-2021-33655)

  - The Linux kernel before 5.18.13 lacks a certain clear operation for the block starting symbol (.bss). This     allows Xen PV guest OS users to cause a denial of service or gain privileges. (CVE-2022-36123)

  - Incomplete cleanup of microarchitectural fill buffers on some Intel(R) Processors may allow an     authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2022-21125)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel's io_uring subsystem in the way a user sets up a ring     with IORING_SETUP_IOPOLL with more than one task completing submissions on this ring.

  - 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)

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

The version of kernel-generic installed on the remote host is prior to 5.15.80 / 5.15.80_smp. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SSA:2022-333-01 advisory.

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. The existing KVM SEV API has a vulnerability that allows a non-root     (host) user-level application to crash the host kernel by creating a confidential guest VM instance in AMD     CPU that supports Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV). (CVE-2022-0171)

  - In binder_inc_ref_for_node of binder.c, there is a possible way to corrupt memory due to a use after free.
    This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User     interaction is not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android kernelAndroid ID:
    A-239630375References: Upstream kernel (CVE-2022-20421)

  - A flaw was found in vDPA with VDUSE backend. There are currently no checks in VDUSE kernel driver to     ensure the size of the device config space is in line with the features advertised by the VDUSE userspace     application. In case of a mismatch, Virtio drivers config read helpers do not initialize the memory     indirectly passed to vduse_vdpa_get_config() returning uninitialized memory from the stack. This could     cause undefined behavior or data leaks in Virtio drivers. (CVE-2022-2308)

  - 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 use after free in the Linux kernel NILFS file system was found in the way user triggers function     security_inode_alloc to fail with following call to function nilfs_mdt_destroy. A local user could use     this flaw to crash the system or potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-2978)

  - 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.

(CVE-2022-3028)

  - Found Linux Kernel flaw in the i740 driver. The Userspace program could pass any values to the driver     through ioctl() interface. The driver doesn't check the value of 'pixclock', so it may cause a divide by     zero error. (CVE-2022-3061)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A denial of service flaw may occur if there is a consecutive request     of the NVME_IOCTL_RESET and the NVME_IOCTL_SUBSYS_RESET through the device file of the driver, resulting     in a PCIe link disconnect. (CVE-2022-3169)

  - There exists a use-after-free in io_uring in the Linux kernel. Signalfd_poll() and binder_poll() use a     waitqueue whose lifetime is the current task. It will send a POLLFREE notification to all waiters before     the queue is freed. Unfortunately, the io_uring poll doesn't handle POLLFREE. This allows a use-after-free     to occur if a signalfd or binder fd is polled with io_uring poll, and the waitqueue gets freed. We     recommend upgrading past commit fc78b2fc21f10c4c9c4d5d659a685710ffa63659 (CVE-2022-3176)

  - A race condition flaw was found in the Linux kernel sound subsystem due to improper locking. It could lead     to a NULL pointer dereference while handling the SNDCTL_DSP_SYNC ioctl.

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

The remote Debian 10 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-3173 advisory.

  - A vulnerability was found in the fs/inode.c:inode_init_owner() function logic of the LInux kernel that     allows local users to create files for the XFS file-system with an unintended group ownership and with     group execution and SGID permission bits set, in a scenario where a directory is SGID and belongs to a     certain group and is writable by a user who is not a member of this group. This can lead to excessive     permissions granted in case when they should not. This vulnerability is similar to the previous     CVE-2018-13405 and adds the missed fix for the XFS. (CVE-2021-4037)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. The existing KVM SEV API has a vulnerability that allows a non-root     (host) user-level application to crash the host kernel by creating a confidential guest VM instance in AMD     CPU that supports Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV). (CVE-2022-0171)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in fs/ext4/namei.c:dx_insert_block() in the Linux kernel's filesystem sub-     component. This flaw allows a local attacker with a user privilege to cause a denial of service.
    (CVE-2022-1184)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Atheros wireless adapter driver in the way a user     forces the ath9k_htc_wait_for_target function to fail with some input messages. This flaw allows a local     user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-1679)

  - In binder_inc_ref_for_node of binder.c, there is a possible way to corrupt memory due to a use after free.
    This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User     interaction is not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android kernelAndroid ID:
    A-239630375References: Upstream kernel (CVE-2022-20421)

  - In emulation_proc_handler of armv8_deprecated.c, there is a possible way to corrupt memory due to a race     condition. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges     needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android kernelAndroid     ID: A-237540956References: Upstream kernel (CVE-2022-20422)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's KVM when attempting to set a SynIC IRQ. This issue makes it     possible for a misbehaving VMM to write to SYNIC/STIMER MSRs, causing a NULL pointer dereference. This     flaw allows an unprivileged local attacker on the host to issue specific ioctl calls, causing a kernel     oops condition that results in a denial of service. (CVE-2022-2153)

  - 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 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. This flaw could allow a local attacker to     potentially trigger an out-of-bounds write or leak kernel heap memory by performing an out-of-bounds read     and copying it into a socket. (CVE-2022-3028)

  - Found Linux Kernel flaw in the i740 driver. The Userspace program could pass any values to the driver     through ioctl() interface. The driver doesn't check the value of 'pixclock', so it may cause a divide by     zero error. (CVE-2022-3061)

  - There exists a use-after-free in io_uring in the Linux kernel. Signalfd_poll() and binder_poll() use a     waitqueue whose lifetime is the current task. It will send a POLLFREE notification to all waiters before     the queue is freed. Unfortunately, the io_uring poll doesn't handle POLLFREE. This allows a use-after-free     to occur if a signalfd or binder fd is polled with io_uring poll, and the waitqueue gets freed. We     recommend upgrading past commit fc78b2fc21f10c4c9c4d5d659a685710ffa63659 (CVE-2022-3176)

  - A race condition flaw was found in the Linux kernel sound subsystem due to improper locking. It could lead     to a NULL pointer dereference while handling the SNDCTL_DSP_SYNC ioctl.

  - 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.

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. We recommend upgrading past commit     4caae58406f8ceb741603eee460d79bacca9b1b5 (CVE-2022-2503)

  - kernel: nf_tables cross-table potential use-after-free may lead to local privilege escalation     (CVE-2022-2586)

  - Non-transparent sharing of return predictor targets between contexts in some Intel(R) Processors may allow     an authorized user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2022-26373)

  - An integer coercion error was found in the openvswitch kernel module. Given a sufficiently large number of     actions, while copying and reserving memory for a new action of a new flow, the reserve_sfa_size()     function does not return -EMSGSIZE as expected, potentially leading to an out-of-bounds write access. This     flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-2639)

  - 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.

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.18.14. xfrm_expand_policies in     net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c can cause a refcount to be dropped twice. (CVE-2022-36879)

  - An issue was discovered in include/asm-generic/tlb.h in the Linux kernel before 5.19. Because of a race     condition (unmap_mapping_range versus munmap), a device driver can free a page while it still has stale     TLB entries. This only occurs in situations with VM_PFNMAP VMAs. (CVE-2022-39188)

  - An issue was discovered in net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c in the Linux kernel before 5.19.6. A denial of     service can occur upon binding to an already bound chain. (CVE-2022-39190)

  - In drivers/media/dvb-core/dmxdev.c in the Linux kernel through 5.19.10, there is a use-after-free caused     by refcount races, affecting dvb_demux_open and dvb_dmxdev_release. (CVE-2022-41218)

  - mm/mremap.c in the Linux kernel before 5.13.3 has a use-after-free via a stale TLB because an rmap lock is     not held during a PUD move. (CVE-2022-41222)

  - drivers/char/pcmcia/synclink_cs.c in the Linux kernel through 5.19.12 has a race condition and resultant     use-after-free if a physically proximate attacker removes a PCMCIA device while calling ioctl, aka a race     condition between mgslpc_ioctl and mgslpc_detach. (CVE-2022-41848)

  - drivers/video/fbdev/smscufx.c in the Linux kernel through 5.19.12 has a race condition and resultant use-     after-free if a physically proximate attacker removes a USB device while calling open(), aka a race     condition between ufx_ops_open and ufx_usb_disconnect. (CVE-2022-41849)

    -- the list head is all zeroes, this results in a NULL pointer dereference. (CVE-2023-1095)

    The upstream advisory describes this issue as follows:

    This vulnerability allows local attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected installations of     the Linux Kernel. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute high-privileged code on the target     system in order to exploit this vulnerability.

    The specific flaw exists within the processing of seg6 attributes. The issue results from the lack of     proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a read past the end of an allocated buffer.
    An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilties to escalate privileges and execute     arbitrary code in the context of the kernel. (CVE-2023-2860)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    vfio/type1: Unpin zero pages (CVE-2022-48700)

    In nf_tables_updtable, if nf_tables_table_enable returns an error, nft_trans_destroy is called to free the     transaction object. nft_trans_destroy() calls list_del(), but the transaction was never placed on a list
    -- the list head is all zeroes, this results in a NULL pointer dereference. (CVE-2023-1095)

    A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's netdevsim device driver, within the scheduling of events. This     issue results from the improper management of a reference count. This may allow an attacker to create a     denial of service condition on the system. (CVE-2023-2019)

    A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's ext4 filesystem in the way it handled the     extra inode size for extended attributes. This flaw could allow a privileged local user to cause a system     crash or other undefined behaviors. (CVE-2023-2513)

    The upstream advisory describes this issue as follows:

    This vulnerability allows local attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected installations of     the Linux Kernel. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute high-privileged code on the target     system in order to exploit this vulnerability.

    The specific flaw exists within the processing of seg6 attributes. The issue results from the lack of     proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a read past the end of an allocated buffer.
    An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilties to escalate privileges and execute     arbitrary code in the context of the kernel. (CVE-2023-2860)

    A use after free vulnerability was found in prepare_to_relocate in fs/btrfs/relocation.c in btrfs in the     Linux Kernel. This possible flaw can be triggered by calling btrfs_ioctl_balance() before calling     btrfs_ioctl_defrag(). (CVE-2023-3111)

    A use-after-free flaw was found in btrfs_get_dev_args_from_path in fs/btrfs/volumes.c in btrfs file-system     in the Linux Kernel. This flaw allows a local attacker with special privileges to cause a system crash or     leak internal kernel information (CVE-2023-4394)

    A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux Kernel. When a disk is removed, bdi_unregister is called to     stop further write-back and waits for associated delayed work to complete. However,     wb_inode_writeback_end() may schedule bandwidth estimation work after this has completed, which can result     in the timer attempting to access the recently freed bdi_writeback. (CVE-2024-0562)

  - The einj_error_inject function in drivers/acpi/apei/einj.c in the Linux kernel allows local users to     simulate hardware errors and consequently cause a denial of service by leveraging failure to disable APEI     error injection through EINJ when securelevel is set. (CVE-2016-3695)

  - A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel, where accessing a deallocated instance in printer_ioctl()     printer_ioctl() tries to access of a printer_dev instance. However, use-after-free arises because it had     been freed by gprinter_free(). (CVE-2020-27784)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.16.11. The mixed IPID assignment method with the     hash-based IPID assignment policy allows an off-path attacker to inject data into a victim's TCP session     or terminate that session. (CVE-2020-36516)

  - A data leak flaw was found in the way XFS_IOC_ALLOCSP IOCTL in the XFS filesystem allowed for size     increase of files with unaligned size. A local attacker could use this flaw to leak data on the XFS     filesystem otherwise not accessible to them. (CVE-2021-4155)

  - A use-after-free read flaw was found in sock_getsockopt() in net/core/sock.c due to SO_PEERCRED and     SO_PEERGROUPS race with listen() (and connect()) in the Linux kernel. In this flaw, an attacker with a     user privileges may crash the system or leak internal kernel information. (CVE-2021-4203)

  - A memory leak problem was found in the TCP source port generation algorithm in net/ipv4/tcp.c due to the     small table perturb size. This flaw may allow an attacker to information leak and may cause a denial of     service problem. (CVE-2022-1012)

  - An integer coercion error was found in the openvswitch kernel module. Given a sufficiently large number of     actions, while copying and reserving memory for a new action of a new flow, the reserve_sfa_size()     function does not return -EMSGSIZE as expected, potentially leading to an out-of-bounds write access. This     flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-2639)

  - 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)

  - Improper Update of Reference Count vulnerability in net/sched of Linux Kernel allows local attacker to     cause privilege escalation to root. This issue affects: Linux Kernel versions prior to 5.18; version 4.14     and later versions. (CVE-2022-29581)

  - 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. This flaw could allow a local attacker to     potentially trigger an out-of-bounds write or leak kernel heap memory by performing an out-of-bounds read     and copying it into a socket. (CVE-2022-3028)

  - net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c in the Linux kernel through 5.18.1 allows a local user (able to create     user/net namespaces) to escalate privileges to root because an incorrect NFT_STATEFUL_EXPR check leads to     a use-after-free. (CVE-2022-32250)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.18.14. xfrm_expand_policies in     net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c can cause a refcount to be dropped twice. (CVE-2022-36879)

  - An issue was discovered in include/asm-generic/tlb.h in the Linux kernel before 5.19. Because of a race     condition (unmap_mapping_range versus munmap), a device driver can free a page while it still has stale     TLB entries. This only occurs in situations with VM_PFNMAP VMAs.

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.18.14. xfrm_expand_policies in     net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c can cause a refcount to be dropped twice. (CVE-2022-36879)

  - An issue was discovered in include/asm-generic/tlb.h in the Linux kernel before 5.19. Because of a race     condition (unmap_mapping_range versus munmap), a device driver can free a page while it still has stale     TLB entries. This only occurs in situations with VM_PFNMAP VMAs. (CVE-2022-39188)

  - An issue was discovered in net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c in the Linux kernel before 5.19.6. A denial of     service can occur upon binding to an already bound chain. (CVE-2022-39190)
