USN-5626-1: Bind vulnerabilities

2022-09-21 KENNETH 0

USN-5626-1: Bind vulnerabilities Yehuda Afek, Anat Bremler-Barr, and Shani Stajnrod discovered that Bind incorrectly handled large delegations. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to reduce performance, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2022-2795) It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled statistics requests. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to obtain sensitive memory contents, or cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. (CVE-2022-2881) It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled memory when processing certain Diffie-Hellman key exchanges. A remote attacker could use this issue to consume resources, leading to a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. (CVE-2022-2906) Maksym Odinintsev discovered that Bind incorrectly handled answers from cache when configured with a zero stale-answer-timeout. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in [ more… ]

USN-5623-1: Linux kernel (HWE) vulnerabilities

2022-09-21 KENNETH 0

USN-5623-1: Linux kernel (HWE) vulnerabilities Asaf Modelevsky discovered that the Intel(R) 10GbE PCI Express (ixgbe) Ethernet driver for the Linux kernel performed insufficient control flow management. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2021-33061) It was discovered that the framebuffer driver on the Linux kernel did not verify size limits when changing font or screen size, leading to an out-of- bounds write. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-33655) Moshe Kol, Amit Klein and Yossi Gilad discovered that the IP implementation in the Linux kernel did not provide sufficient randomization when calculating port offsets. An attacker could possibly use this to expose sensitive information. (CVE-2022-1012, CVE-2022-32296) Norbert Slusarek discovered that a race condition existed in the perf subsystem in the Linux [ more… ]

USN-5624-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

2022-09-21 KENNETH 0

USN-5624-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities It was discovered that the framebuffer driver on the Linux kernel did not verify size limits when changing font or screen size, leading to an out-of- bounds write. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-33655) Duoming Zhou discovered that race conditions existed in the timer handling implementation of the Linux kernel’s Rose X.25 protocol layer, resulting in use-after-free vulnerabilities. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2022-2318) Roger Pau Monné discovered that the Xen virtual block driver in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize memory pages to be used for shared communication with the backend. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information (guest kernel memory). (CVE-2022-26365) Roger Pau Monné discovered that the [ more… ]
