According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - The hid_input_field() function in     'drivers/hid/hid-core.c' in the Linux kernel before 4.6     allows physically proximate attackers to obtain     sensitive information from kernel memory or cause a     denial of service (out-of-bounds read) by connecting a     device.(CVE-2016-7915i1/4%0

  - The Linux kernel, before version 4.14.2, is vulnerable     to a deadlock caused by     fs/ocfs2/file.c:ocfs2_setattr(), as the function does     not wait for DIO requests before locking the inode.
    This can be exploited by local users to cause a     subsequent denial of service.(CVE-2017-18204i1/4%0

  - The vmw_gb_surface_define_ioctl function (accessible     via DRM_IOCTL_VMW_GB_SURFACE_CREATE) in     drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_surface.c in the Linux     kernel through 4.11.4 defines a backup_handle variable     but does not give it an initial value. If one attempts     to create a GB surface, with a previously allocated DMA     buffer to be used as a backup buffer, the backup_handle     variable does not get written to and is then later     returned to user space, allowing local users to obtain     sensitive information from uninitialized kernel memory     via a crafted ioctl call.(CVE-2017-9605i1/4%0

  - Use-after-free vulnerability in the nfqnl_zcopy     function in net/netfilter/nfnetlink_queue_core.c in the     Linux kernel through 3.13.6 allows attackers to obtain     sensitive information from kernel memory by leveraging     the absence of a certain orphaning operation. NOTE: the     affected code was moved to the skb_zerocopy function in     net/core/skbuff.c before the vulnerability was     announced.(CVE-2014-2568i1/4%0

  - It was found that the Linux kernel's ISO file system     implementation did not correctly limit the traversal of     Rock Ridge extension Continuation Entries (CE). An     attacker with physical access to the system could use     this flaw to trigger an infinite loop in the kernel,     resulting in a denial of service.(CVE-2014-9420i1/4%0

  - An integer overflow vulnerability was found in the     ring_buffer_resize() calculations in which a privileged     user can adjust the size of the ringbuffer message     size. These calculations can create an issue where the     kernel memory allocator will not allocate the correct     count of pages yet expect them to be usable. This can     lead to the ftrace() output to appear to corrupt kernel     memory and possibly be used for privileged escalation     or more likely kernel panic.(CVE-2016-9754i1/4%0

  - A symlink size validation was missing in Linux kernels     built with UDF file system (CONFIG_UDF_FS) support,     allowing the corruption of kernel memory. An attacker     able to mount a corrupted/malicious UDF file system     image could cause the kernel to crash.(CVE-2014-9730i1/4%0

  - In was found that in the Linux kernel, in     vmw_surface_define_ioctl() function in     'drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_surface.c' file, a     'num_sizes' parameter is assigned a user-controlled     value which is not checked if it is zero. This is used     in a call to kmalloc() and later leads to dereferencing     ZERO_SIZE_PTR, which in turn leads to a GPF and     possibly to a kernel panic.(CVE-2017-7261i1/4%0

  - A race condition flaw was found in the way the Linux     kernel keys management subsystem performed key garbage     collection. A local attacker could attempt accessing a     key while it was being garbage collected, which would     cause the system to crash.(CVE-2014-9529i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation     of i8042 serial ports. An attacker could cause a kernel     panic if they are able to add and remove devices as the     module is loaded.(CVE-2017-18079i1/4%0

  - drivers/hid/hid-pl.c in the Human Interface Device     (HID) subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.11, when     CONFIG_HID_PANTHERLORD is enabled, allows physically     proximate attackers to cause a denial of service     (heap-based out-of-bounds write) via a crafted     device.(CVE-2013-2892i1/4%0

  - The __clear_user function in     arch/arm64/lib/clear_user.S in the Linux kernel before     3.17.4 on the ARM64 platform allows local users to     cause a denial of service (system crash) by reading one     byte beyond a /dev/zero page boundary.(CVE-2014-7843i1/4%0

  - A divide-by-zero vulnerability was found in a way the     kernel processes TCP connections. The error can occur     if a connection starts another cwnd reduction phase by     setting tp-i1/4zprior_cwnd to the current cwnd (0) in     tcp_init_cwnd_reduction(). A remote, unauthenticated     attacker could use this flaw to crash the kernel     (denial of service).(CVE-2016-2070i1/4%0

  - The adjust_branches function in kernel/bpf/verifier.c     in the Linux kernel before 4.5 does not consider the     delta in the backward-jump case, which allows local     users to obtain sensitive information from kernel     memory by creating a packet filter and then loading     crafted BPF instructions.(CVE-2016-2383i1/4%0

  - System using the infiniband support module ib_srpt were     vulnerable to a denial of service by system crash by a     local attacker who is able to abort writes to a device     using this initiator.(CVE-2016-6327i1/4%0

  - A security flaw was found in the Linux kernel in the     mark_source_chains() function in     'net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.c'. It is possible for a     user-supplied 'ipt_entry' structure to have a large     'next_offset' field. This field is not bounds checked     prior to writing to a counter value at the supplied     offset.(CVE-2016-3134i1/4%0

  - An out-of-bounds access issue was discovered in     yurex_read() in drivers/usb/misc/yurex.c in the Linux     kernel. A local attacker could use user access     read/writes with incorrect bounds checking in the yurex     USB driver to crash the kernel or potentially escalate     privileges.(CVE-2018-16276i1/4%0

  - drivers/media/v4l2-core/videobuf2-v4l2.c in the Linux     kernel before 4.5.3 allows local users to cause a     denial of service (kernel memory write operation) or     possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted     number of planes in a VIDIOC_DQBUF ioctl     call.(CVE-2016-4568i1/4%0

  - The usb_serial_console_disconnect function in     drivers/usb/serial/console.c in the Linux kernel,     before 4.13.8, allows local users to cause a denial of     service (use-after-free and system crash) or possibly     have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device,     related to disconnection and failed     setup.(CVE-2017-16525i1/4%0

  - The Linux kernel is vulnerable to a NULL pointer     dereference in the ext4/xattr.c:ext4_xattr_inode_hash()     function. An attacker could trick a legitimate user or     a privileged attacker could exploit this to cause a     NULL pointer dereference with a crafted ext4 image.
    (CVE-2018-1094)

An update of the linux package has been released.

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

  - An integer overflow vulnerability was found in the     ring_buffer_resize() calculations in which a privileged     user can adjust the size of the ringbuffer message     size. These calculations can create an issue where the     kernel memory allocator will not allocate the correct     count of pages yet expect them to be usable. This can     lead to the ftrace() output to appear to corrupt kernel     memory and possibly be used for privileged escalation     or more likely kernel panic.(CVE-2016-9754)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation     of setsockopt for the SO_{SND|RCV}BUFFORCE setsockopt()     system call. Users with non-namespace CAP_NET_ADMIN are     able to trigger this call and create a situation in     which the sockets sendbuff data size could be negative.
    This could adversely affect memory allocations and     create situations where the system could crash or cause     memory corruption.(CVE-2016-9793)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability was found in ALSA pcm     layer, which allows local users to cause a denial of     service, memory corruption, or possibly other     unspecified impact. Due to the nature of the flaw,     privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out,     although we believe it is unlikely.(CVE-2016-9794)

  - A double free vulnerability was found in netlink_dump,     which could cause a denial of service or possibly other     unspecified impact. Due to the nature of the flaw,     privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out,     although we believe it is unlikely.(CVE-2016-9806)

  - A race condition issue leading to a use-after-free flaw     was found in the way the raw packet sockets are     implemented in the Linux kernel networking subsystem     handling synchronization. A local user able to open a     raw packet socket (requires the CAP_NET_RAW capability)     can use this issue to crash the     system.(CVE-2017-1000111)

  - An exploitable memory corruption flaw was found in the     Linux kernel. The append path can be erroneously     switched from UFO to non-UFO in ip_ufo_append_data()     when building an UFO packet with MSG_MORE option. If     unprivileged user namespaces are available, this flaw     can be exploited to gain root     privileges.(CVE-2017-1000112)

  - A stack buffer overflow flaw was found in the way the     Bluetooth subsystem of the Linux kernel processed     pending L2CAP configuration responses from a client. On     systems with the stack protection feature enabled in     the kernel (CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y, which is     enabled on all architectures other than s390x and     ppc64le), an unauthenticated attacker able to initiate     a connection to a system via Bluetooth could use this     flaw to crash the system. Due to the nature of the     stack protection feature, code execution cannot be     fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely. On     systems without the stack protection feature (ppc64le     the Bluetooth modules are not built on s390x), an     unauthenticated attacker able to initiate a connection     to a system via Bluetooth could use this flaw to     remotely execute arbitrary code on the system with ring     0 (kernel) privileges.(CVE-2017-1000251)

  - A reachable assertion failure flaw was found in the     Linux kernel built with KVM virtualisation(CONFIG_KVM)     support with Virtual Function I/O feature (CONFIG_VFIO)     enabled. This failure could occur if a malicious guest     device sent a virtual interrupt (guest IRQ) with a     larger (i1/4z1024) index value.(CVE-2017-1000252)

  - A flaw was found in the way memory was being allocated     on the stack for user space binaries. If heap (or     different memory region) and stack memory regions were     adjacent to each other, an attacker could use this flaw     to jump over the stack guard gap, cause controlled     memory corruption on process stack or the adjacent     memory region, and thus increase their privileges on     the system. This is a kernel-side mitigation which     increases the stack guard gap size from one page to 1     MiB to make successful exploitation of this issue more     difficult.(CVE-2017-1000364)

  - The Linux Kernel imposes a size restriction on the     arguments and environmental strings passed through     RLIMIT_STACK/RLIMIT_INFINITY, but does not take the     argument and environment pointers into account, which     allows attackers to bypass this     limitation.(CVE-2017-1000365)

  - The offset2lib patch as used in the Linux Kernel     contains a vulnerability that allows a PIE binary to be     execve()'ed with 1GB of arguments or environmental     strings then the stack occupies the address 0x80000000     and the PIE binary is mapped above 0x40000000     nullifying the protection of the offset2lib patch. This     affects Linux Kernel version 4.11.5 and earlier. This     is a different issue than CVE-2017-1000371. This issue     appears to be limited to i386 based     systems.(CVE-2017-1000370)

  - A flaw was found in the processing of incoming L2CAP     bluetooth commands. Uninitialized stack variables can     be sent to an attacker leaking data in kernel address     space.(CVE-2017-1000410)

  - A race condition was found in the Linux kernel before     version 4.11-rc1 in 'fs/timerfd.c' file which allows a     local user to cause a kernel list corruption or     use-after-free via simultaneous operations with a file     descriptor which leverage improper 'might_cancel'     queuing. An unprivileged local user could use this flaw     to cause a denial of service of the system. Due to the     nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be     fully ruled out, although we believe it is     unlikely.(CVE-2017-10661)

  - Memory leak in the virtio_gpu_object_create function in     drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_object.c in the Linux     kernel through 4.11.8 allows attackers to cause a     denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering     object-initialization failures.(CVE-2017-10810)

  - The make_response function in     drivers/block/xen-blkback/blkback.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.11.8 allows guest OS users to obtain sensitive     information from host OS (or other guest OS) kernel     memory by leveraging the copying of uninitialized     padding fields in Xen block-interface response     structures, aka XSA-216.(CVE-2017-10911)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in the Netlink     functionality of the Linux kernel networking subsystem.
    Due to the insufficient cleanup in the mq_notify     function, a local attacker could potentially use this     flaw to escalate their privileges on the     system.(CVE-2017-11176)

  - Buffer overflow in the mp_override_legacy_irq()     function in arch/x86/kernel/acpi/boot.c in the Linux     kernel through 4.12.2 allows local users to gain     privileges via a crafted ACPI table.(CVE-2017-11473)

  - The xfrm_migrate() function in the     net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c file in the Linux kernel built     with CONFIG_XFRM_MIGRATE does not verify if the dir     parameter is less than XFRM_POLICY_MAX. This allows a     local attacker to cause a denial of service     (out-of-bounds access) or possibly have unspecified     other impact by sending a XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE netlink     message. This flaw is present in the Linux kernel since     an introduction of XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE in 2.6.21-rc1, up     to 4.13-rc3.(CVE-2017-11600)

  - A security flaw was discovered in     nl80211_set_rekey_data() function in the Linux kernel     since v3.1-rc1 through v4.13. This function does not     check whether the required attributes are present in a     netlink request. This request can be issued by a user     with CAP_NET_ADMIN privilege and may result in NULL     dereference and a system crash.(CVE-2017-12153)

  - Linux kernel built with the KVM visualization support     (CONFIG_KVM), with nested visualization (nVMX) feature     enabled (nested=1), is vulnerable to a crash due to     disabled external interrupts. As L2 guest could access     (r/w) hardware CR8 register of the host(L0). In a     nested visualization setup, L2 guest user could use     this flaw to potentially crash the host(L0) resulting     in DoS.(CVE-2017-12154)

  - The Linux kernel built with the KVM visualization     support (CONFIG_KVM), with nested visualization(nVMX)     feature enabled (nested=1), was vulnerable to a stack     buffer overflow issue. The vulnerability could occur     while traversing guest page table entries to resolve     guest virtual address(gva). An L1 guest could use this     flaw to crash the host kernel resulting in denial of     service (DoS) or potentially execute arbitrary code on     the host to gain privileges on the     system.(CVE-2017-12188)
