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

According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in linux/net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c of the netfilter subsystem.
    This flaw allows a local user to cause an out-of-bounds write issue. (CVE-2022-1015)

  - An out-of-bounds(OOB) memory access vulnerability was found in vmwgfx driver in     drivers/gpu/vmxgfx/vmxgfx_kms.c in GPU component in the Linux kernel with device file '/dev/dri/renderD128     (or Dxxx)'. This flaw allows a local attacker with a user account on the system to gain privilege, causing     a denial of service(DoS). (CVE-2022-36280)

  - A double-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel's TUN/TAP device driver functionality in how a user     registers the device when the register_netdevice function fails (NETDEV_REGISTER notifier). This flaw     allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-4744)

  - A speculative pointer dereference problem exists in the Linux Kernel on the do_prlimit() function. The     resource argument value is controlled and is used in pointer arithmetic for the 'rlim' variable and can be     used to leak the contents. We recommend upgrading past version 6.1.8 or commit     739790605705ddcf18f21782b9c99ad7d53a8c11 (CVE-2023-0458)

  - Copy_from_user on 64-bit versions of the Linux kernel does not implement the __uaccess_begin_nospec     allowing a user to bypass the 'access_ok' check and pass a kernel pointer to copy_from_user(). This would     allow an attacker to leak information. We recommend upgrading beyond commit     74e19ef0ff8061ef55957c3abd71614ef0f42f47 (CVE-2023-0459)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel's core dump subsystem. This flaw allows a local user     to crash the system. Only if patch 390031c94211 ('coredump: Use the vma snapshot in fill_files_note') not     applied yet, then kernel could be affected. (CVE-2023-1249)

  - Use After Free vulnerability in Linux kernel traffic control index filter (tcindex) allows Privilege     Escalation. The imperfect hash area can be updated while packets are traversing, which will cause a use-     after-free when 'tcf_exts_exec()' is called with the destroyed tcf_ext. A local attacker user can use this     vulnerability to elevate its privileges to root. This issue affects Linux Kernel: from 4.14 before git     commit ee059170b1f7e94e55fa6cadee544e176a6e59c2. (CVE-2023-1281)

  - A flaw was found in KVM. When calling the KVM_GET_DEBUGREGS ioctl, on 32-bit systems, there might be some     uninitialized portions of the kvm_debugregs structure that could be copied to userspace, causing an     information leak. (CVE-2023-1513)

  - A flaw that boot CPU could be vulnerable for the speculative execution behavior kind of attacks in the     Linux kernel X86 CPU Power management options functionality was found in the way user resuming CPU from     suspend-to-RAM. A local user could use this flaw to potentially get unauthorized access to some memory of     the CPU similar to the speculative execution behavior kind of attacks. (CVE-2023-1637)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in vhost_net_set_backend in drivers/vhost/net.c in virtio network     subcomponent in the Linux kernel due to a double fget. This flaw could allow a local attacker to crash the     system, and could even lead to a kernel information leak problem. (CVE-2023-1838)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux Kernel io_uring system can be exploited to achieve local     privilege escalation. The io_file_get_fixed function lacks the presence of ctx->uring_lock which can lead     to a Use-After-Free vulnerability due a race condition with fixed files getting unregistered. We recommend     upgrading past commit da24142b1ef9fd5d36b76e36bab328a5b27523e8. (CVE-2023-1872)

  - The Linux kernel allows userspace processes to enable mitigations by calling prctl with     PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL which disables the speculation feature as well as by using seccomp. We had noticed     that on VMs of at least one major cloud provider, the kernel still left the victim process exposed to     attacks in some cases even after enabling the spectre-BTI mitigation with prctl. The same behavior can be     observed on a bare-metal machine when forcing the mitigation to IBRS on boot command line. This happened     because when plain IBRS was enabled (not enhanced IBRS), the kernel had some logic that determined that     STIBP was not needed. The IBRS bit implicitly protects against cross-thread branch target injection.
    However, with legacy IBRS, the IBRS bit was cleared on returning to userspace, due to performance reasons,     which disabled the implicit STIBP and left userspace threads vulnerable to cross-thread branch target     injection against which STIBP protects. (CVE-2023-1998)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's udmabuf device driver. The specific flaw exists within a fault     handler. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a     memory access past the end of an array. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges     and execute arbitrary code in the context of the kernel. (CVE-2023-2008)

  - An out-of-bounds memory access flaw was found in the Linux kernel's XFS file system in how a user restores     an XFS image after failure (with a dirty log journal). This flaw allows a local user to crash or     potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2023-2124)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability was found in iscsi_sw_tcp_session_create in drivers/scsi/iscsi_tcp.c in     SCSI sub-component in the Linux Kernel. In this flaw an attacker could leak kernel internal information.
    (CVE-2023-2162)

  - A vulnerability was found in compare_netdev_and_ip in drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c in RDMA in the Linux     Kernel. The improper cleanup results in out-of-boundary read, where a local user can utilize this problem     to crash the system or escalation of privilege. (CVE-2023-2176)

  - A null pointer dereference issue was found in the sctp network protocol in net/sctp/stream_sched.c in     Linux Kernel. If stream_in allocation is failed, stream_out is freed which would further be accessed. A     local user could use this flaw to crash the system or potentially cause a denial of service.
    (CVE-2023-2177)

  - An out-of-bounds write vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's SLIMpro I2C device driver. The     userspace 'data->block[0]' variable was not capped to a number between 0-255 and was used as the size of a     memcpy, possibly writing beyond the end of dma_buffer. This flaw could allow a local privileged user to     crash the system or potentially achieve code execution. (CVE-2023-2194)

  - Rejected reason: This CVE ID has been rejected or withdrawn by its CVE Numbering Authority because it was     the duplicate of CVE-2023-31436. (CVE-2023-2248)

  - A denial of service problem was found, due to a possible recursive locking scenario, resulting in a     deadlock in table_clear in drivers/md/dm-ioctl.c in the Linux Kernel Device Mapper-Multipathing sub-     component. (CVE-2023-2269)

  - Rejected reason: DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER. ConsultIDs: CVE-2023-33203. Reason: This candidate is a     reservation duplicate of CVE-2023-33203. Notes: All CVE users should reference CVE-2023-33203 instead of     this candidate. All references and descriptions in this candidate have been removed to prevent accidental     usage. (CVE-2023-2483)

  - 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)

  - do_tls_getsockopt in net/tls/tls_main.c in the Linux kernel through 6.2.6 lacks a lock_sock call, leading     to a race condition (with a resultant use-after-free or NULL pointer dereference). (CVE-2023-28466)

  - An issue was discovered in arch/x86/kvm/vmx/nested.c in the Linux kernel before 6.2.8. nVMX on x86_64     lacks consistency checks for CR0 and CR4. (CVE-2023-30456)

  - qfq_change_class in net/sched/sch_qfq.c in the Linux kernel before 6.2.13 allows an out-of-bounds write     because lmax can exceed QFQ_MIN_LMAX. (CVE-2023-31436)

  - In the Linux kernel through 6.3.1, a use-after-free in Netfilter nf_tables when processing batch requests     can be abused to perform arbitrary read and write operations on kernel memory. Unprivileged local users     can obtain root privileges. This occurs because anonymous sets are mishandled. (CVE-2023-32233)

  - The Linux kernel before 6.2.9 has a race condition and resultant use-after-free in     drivers/net/ethernet/qualcomm/emac/emac.c if a physically proximate attacker unplugs an emac based device.
    (CVE-2023-33203)

The remote Oracle Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2023-6583 advisory.

  - A vulnerability was found in Linux Kernel. It has been declared as problematic. Affected by this     vulnerability is the function intr_callback of the file drivers/net/usb/r8152.c of the component BPF. The     manipulation leads to logging of excessive data. The attack can be launched remotely. It is recommended to     apply a patch to fix this issue. The associated identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-211363.
    (CVE-2022-3594)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's TUN/TAP functionality. This issue could allow a local user to     bypass network filters and gain unauthorized access to some resources. The original patches fixing     CVE-2023-1076 are incorrect or incomplete. The problem is that the following upstream commits -     a096ccca6e50 (tun: tun_chr_open(): correctly initialize socket uid), - 66b2c338adce (tap: tap_open():
    correctly initialize socket uid), pass inode->i_uid to sock_init_data_uid() as the last parameter and     that turns out to not be accurate. (CVE-2023-4194)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in r592_remove in drivers/memstick/host/r592.c in media access in the     Linux Kernel. This flaw allows a local attacker to crash the system at device disconnect, possibly leading     to a kernel information leak. (CVE-2023-3141)

  - In the Linux kernel before 6.1.13, there is a double free in net/mpls/af_mpls.c upon an allocation failure     (for registering the sysctl table under a new location) during the renaming of a device. (CVE-2023-26545)

  - A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, has been found in Linux Kernel. Affected by this issue     is the function del_timer of the file drivers/isdn/mISDN/l1oip_core.c of the component Bluetooth. The     manipulation leads to use after free.

    The identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-211020. (CVE-2022-3523)

  - A hash collision flaw was found in the IPv6 connection lookup table in the Linux kernel's IPv6     functionality when a user makes a new kind of SYN flood attack. A user located in the local network or     with a high bandwidth connection can increase the CPU usage of the server that accepts IPV6 connections up     to 95%. (CVE-2023-1206)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IP framework for transforming packets (XFRM subsystem). This issue     may allow a malicious user with CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges to cause a 4 byte out-of-bounds read of     XFRMA_MTIMER_THRESH when parsing netlink attributes, leading to potential leakage of sensitive heap data     to userspace. (CVE-2023-3773)

  - A flaw was found in KVM AMD Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) in the Linux kernel. A KVM guest using     SEV-ES or SEV-SNP with multiple vCPUs can trigger a double fetch race condition vulnerability and invoke     the `VMGEXIT` handler recursively. If an attacker manages to call the handler multiple times, they can     trigger a stack overflow and cause a denial of service or potentially guest-to-host escape in kernel     configurations without stack guard pages (`CONFIG_VMAP_STACK`). (CVE-2023-4155)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_fw component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation. When fw_change() is called on an existing filter, the whole tcf_result     struct is always copied into the new instance of the filter. This causes a problem when updating a filter     bound to a class, as tcf_unbind_filter() is always called on the old instance in the success path,     decreasing filter_cnt of the still referenced class and allowing it to be deleted, leading to a use-after-     free. We recommend upgrading past commit 76e42ae831991c828cffa8c37736ebfb831ad5ec. (CVE-2023-4207)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_u32 component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation. When u32_change() is called on an existing filter, the whole     tcf_result struct is always copied into the new instance of the filter. This causes a problem when     updating a filter bound to a class, as tcf_unbind_filter() is always called on the old instance in the     success path, decreasing filter_cnt of the still referenced class and allowing it to be deleted, leading     to a use-after-free. We recommend upgrading past commit 3044b16e7c6fe5d24b1cdbcf1bd0a9d92d1ebd81.
    (CVE-2023-4208)

  - A flaw was found in the exFAT driver of the Linux kernel. The vulnerability exists in the implementation     of the file name reconstruction function, which is responsible for reading file name entries from a     directory index and merging file name parts belonging to one file into a single long file name. Since the     file name characters are copied into a stack variable, a local privileged attacker could use this flaw to     overflow the kernel stack. (CVE-2023-4273)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in xgene_hwmon_remove in drivers/hwmon/xgene-hwmon.c in the Hardware     Monitoring Linux Kernel Driver (xgene-hwmon). This flaw could allow a local attacker to crash the system     due to a race problem. This vulnerability could even lead to a kernel information leak problem.
    (CVE-2023-1855)

  - A NULL pointer dereference issue was found in the gfs2 file system in the Linux kernel. It occurs on     corrupt gfs2 file systems when the evict code tries to reference the journal descriptor structure after it     has been freed and set to NULL. A privileged local user could use this flaw to cause a kernel panic.
    (CVE-2023-3212)

  - The Linux kernel before 6.2.9 has a race condition and resultant use-after-free in     drivers/net/ethernet/qualcomm/emac/emac.c if a physically proximate attacker unplugs an emac based device.
    (CVE-2023-33203)

  - A double-free vulnerability was found in the vmwgfx driver in the Linux kernel. The flaw exists within the     handling of vmw_buffer_object objects. The issue results from the lack of validating the existence of an     object prior to performing further free operations on the object. This flaw allows a local privileged user     to escalate privileges and execute code in the context of the kernel. (CVE-2023-33952)

  - Information exposure through microarchitectural state after transient execution in certain vector     execution units for some Intel(R) Processors may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable     information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2022-40982)

  - An out of bounds (OOB) memory access flaw was found in the Linux kernel in relay_file_read_start_pos in     kernel/relay.c in the relayfs. This flaw could allow a local attacker to crash the system or leak kernel     internal information. (CVE-2023-3268)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_u32 component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation. If tcf_change_indev() fails, u32_set_parms() will immediately return     an error after incrementing or decrementing the reference counter in tcf_bind_filter(). If an attacker can     control the reference counter and set it to zero, they can cause the reference to be freed, leading to a     use-after-free vulnerability. We recommend upgrading past commit 04c55383fa5689357bcdd2c8036725a55ed632bc.
    (CVE-2023-3609)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Ext4 File System in how a user triggers several file     operations simultaneously with the overlay FS usage. This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially     escalate their privileges on the system. Only if patch 9a2544037600 (ovl: fix use after free in struct     ovl_aio_req) not applied yet, the kernel could be affected. (CVE-2023-1252)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in nfsd4_ssc_setup_dul in fs/nfsd/nfs4proc.c in the NFS filesystem in the     Linux Kernel. This issue could allow a local attacker to crash the system or it may lead to a kernel     information leak problem. (CVE-2023-1652)

  - A race condition vulnerability was found in the vmwgfx driver in the Linux kernel. The flaw exists within     the handling of GEM objects. The issue results from improper locking when performing operations on an     object. This flaw allows a local privileged user to disclose information in the context of the kernel.
    (CVE-2023-33951)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A use-after-free may be triggered in asus_kbd_backlight_set when     plugging/disconnecting in a malicious USB device, which advertises itself as an Asus device. Similarly to     the previous known CVE-2023-25012, but in asus devices, the work_struct may be scheduled by the LED     controller while the device is disconnecting, triggering a use-after-free on the struct asus_kbd_leds *led     structure. A malicious USB device may exploit the issue to cause memory corruption with controlled data.
    (CVE-2023-1079)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_route component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation. When route4_change() is called on an existing filter, the whole     tcf_result struct is always copied into the new instance of the filter. This causes a problem when     updating a filter bound to a class, as tcf_unbind_filter() is always called on the old instance in the     success path, decreasing filter_cnt of the still referenced class and allowing it to be deleted, leading     to a use-after-free. We recommend upgrading past commit b80b829e9e2c1b3f7aae34855e04d8f6ecaf13c8.
    (CVE-2023-4206)

  - An improper input validation flaw was found in the eBPF subsystem in the Linux kernel. The issue occurs     due to a lack of proper validation of dynamic pointers within user-supplied eBPF programs prior to     executing them. This may allow an attacker with CAP_BPF privileges to escalate privileges and execute     arbitrary code in the context of the kernel. (CVE-2023-39191)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IP framework for transforming packets (XFRM subsystem). This issue     may allow a malicious user with CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges to directly dereference a NULL pointer in     xfrm_update_ae_params(), leading to a possible kernel crash and denial of service. (CVE-2023-3772)

    2023-08-31: CVE-2023-1637 was added to this advisory.

    A denial of service (DOS) issue was found in the Linux kernel's smb2_ioctl_query_info function in     the fs/cifs/smb2ops.c Common Internet File System (CIFS) due to an incorrect return from the memdup_user     function. This flaw allows a local, privileged (CAP_SYS_ADMIN) attacker to crash the system.
    (CVE-2022-0168)

    When the KVM updates the guest's page table entry, it will first use get_user_pages_fast() to pin the     page, and when it fails (e.g. the vma->flags has VM_IO or VM_PFNMAP), it will get corresponding VMA where     the page lies in through find_vma_intersection(), calculate the physical address, and map the page to the     kernel virtual address through memremap(), and finally, write the update.The problem is that when we get     the vma through find_vma_intersection(), only VM_PFNMAP is checked, not both VM_IO and VM_PFNMAP. In the     reproducer below, after the KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION is completed, we replace the guest's memory mapping     with the kernel-user shared region of io_uring and then perform the KVM_TRANSLATE operation, which finally     triggers the page table entry update. Now, memremap() will return page_offset_base (direct mapping of all     physical memory) + vaddr (the linear address of KVM_TRANSLATE) + vm_pgoff (the offset when io_uring     performs mmap(2)), and use the return value as the base address for CMPXCHG (write 0x21 in this case).
    Since both vaddr and vm_pgoff are controllable by the user-mode process, writing may exceed the previously     mapped guest memory space and trigger exceptions such as UAF. The vulnerability shares similarities with     CVE-2021-22543. (CVE-2022-1158)

    A vulnerability was found in the pfkey_register function in net/key/af_key.c in the Linux kernel. This     flaw allows a local, unprivileged user to gain access to kernel memory, leading to a system crash or a     leak of internal kernel information. (CVE-2022-1353)

    A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel's io_uring interface subsystem in the way a user     triggers a race condition between timeout flush and removal. This flaw allows a local user to crash or     escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-29582)

    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 flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A NULL pointer dereference may occur while a slip driver is in     progress to detach in sl_tx_timeout in drivers/net/slip/slip.c. This issue could allow an attacker to     crash the system or leak internal kernel information. (CVE-2022-41858)

  - The Linux kernel allows userspace processes to enable mitigations by calling prctl with     PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL which disables the speculation feature as well as by using seccomp. We had noticed     that on VMs of at least one major cloud provider, the kernel still left the victim process exposed to     attacks in some cases even after enabling the spectre-BTI mitigation with prctl. The same behavior can be     observed on a bare-metal machine when forcing the mitigation to IBRS on boot command line. This happened     because when plain IBRS was enabled (not enhanced IBRS), the kernel had some logic that determined that     STIBP was not needed. The IBRS bit implicitly protects against cross-thread branch target injection.
    However, with legacy IBRS, the IBRS bit was cleared on returning to userspace, due to performance reasons,     which disabled the implicit STIBP and left userspace threads vulnerable to cross-thread branch target     injection against which STIBP protects. (CVE-2023-1998)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 6.2.9. A use-after-free was found in bq24190_remove in     drivers/power/supply/bq24190_charger.c. It could allow a local attacker to crash the system due to a race     condition. (CVE-2023-33288)

  - An issue was discovered in fl_set_geneve_opt in net/sched/cls_flower.c in the Linux kernel before 6.3.7.
    It allows an out-of-bounds write in the flower classifier code via TCA_FLOWER_KEY_ENC_OPTS_GENEVE packets.
    This may result in denial of service or privilege escalation. (CVE-2023-35788)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 6.3.2. A use-after-free was found in saa7134_finidev in     drivers/media/pci/saa7134/saa7134-core.c. (CVE-2023-35823)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 6.3.2. A use-after-free was found in     renesas_usb3_remove in drivers/usb/gadget/udc/renesas_usb3.c. (CVE-2023-35828)
