EulerOS 2.0 SP3 : kernel (EulerOS-SA-2018-1297)

high Nessus Plugin ID 117741

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing multiple security updates.

Description

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 the way a local user could create keyrings for other users via keyctl commands. This may allow an attacker to set unwanted defaults, a denial of service, or possibly leak keyring information between users.(CVE-2017-18270)

- A null pointer dereference in dccp_write_xmit() function in net/dccp/output.c in the Linux kernel allows a local user to cause a denial of service by a number of certain crafted system calls.(CVE-2018-1130)

- A flaw was found in the Linux kernel, before 4.16.6 where the cdrom_ioctl_media_changed function in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c allows local attackers to use a incorrect bounds check in the CDROM driver CDROM_MEDIA_CHANGED ioctl to read out kernel memory.(CVE-2018-10940)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected kernel packages.
