USN-4093-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities
USN-4093-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities linux, linux-hwe, linux-azure, linux-gcp, linux-kvm, linux-raspi2, linux-snapdragon vulnerabilities A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: Ubuntu 19.04 Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Summary Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel. Software Description linux – Linux kernel linux-azure – Linux kernel for Microsoft Azure Cloud systems linux-gcp – Linux kernel for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) systems linux-kvm – Linux kernel for cloud environments linux-raspi2 – Linux kernel for Raspberry Pi 2 linux-snapdragon – Linux kernel for Snapdragon processors linux-hwe – Linux hardware enablement (HWE) kernel Details It was discovered that a heap buffer overflow existed in the Marvell Wireless LAN device driver for the Linux kernel. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2019-10126) Andrei Vlad Lutas and Dan Lutas discovered that [ more… ]
