USN-6285-1: Linux kernel (OEM) vulnerabilities

2023-08-12 KENNETH 0

USN-6285-1: Linux kernel (OEM) vulnerabilities It was discovered that the NTFS file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly check buffer indexes in certain situations, leading to an out-of-bounds read vulnerability. A local attacker could possibly use this to expose sensitive information (kernel memory). (CVE-2022-48502) Stonejiajia, Shir Tamari and Sagi Tzadik discovered that the OverlayFS implementation in the Ubuntu Linux kernel did not properly perform permission checks in certain situations. A local attacker could possibly use this to gain elevated privileges. (CVE-2023-2640) It was discovered that a race condition existed in the f2fs file system in the Linux kernel, leading to a null pointer dereference vulnerability. An attacker could use this to construct a malicious f2fs image that, when mounted and operated on, could cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2023-2898) Mingi Cho discovered that the netfilter [ more… ]

2023-08-12 KENNETH 0

USN-6284-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities It was discovered that the netlink implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly validate policies when parsing attributes in some situations. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (infinite recursion). (CVE-2020-36691) Billy Jheng Bing Jhong discovered that the CIFS network file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly validate arguments to ioctl() in some situations. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2022-0168) It was discovered that the ext4 file system implementation in the Linux kernel contained a use-after-free vulnerability. An attacker could use this to construct a malicious ext4 file system image that, when mounted, could cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2022-1184) It was discovered that some AMD x86-64 processors with SMT enabled could speculatively execute instructions using [ more… ]

USN-6283-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities Ruihan Li discovered that the bluetooth subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly perform permissions checks when handling HCI sockets. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (bluetooth communication). (CVE-2023-2002) Zheng Zhang discovered that the device-mapper implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle locking during table_clear() operations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (kernel deadlock). (CVE-2023-2269) It was discovered that the Ricoh R5C592 MemoryStick card reader driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition during module unload, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-3141) Quentin Minster discovered that the KSMBD implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly validate pointers in some [ more… ]

USN-6277-2: Dompdf vulnerabilities USN-6277-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Dompdf. This update provides the corresponding updates for Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Original advisory details: It was discovered that Dompdf was not properly validating untrusted input when processing HTML content under certain circumstances. An attacker could possibly use this issue to expose sensitive information or execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. (CVE-2014-5011, CVE-2014-5012, CVE-2014-5013) It was discovered that Dompdf was not properly validating processed HTML content that referenced PHAR files, which could result in the deserialization of untrusted data. An attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-3838) It was discovered that Dompdf was not properly validating processed HTML content that referenced both a remote base and a local file, which could result in the bypass of a chroot check. An attacker could possibly use this issue [ more… ]
