USN-5605-1: Linux kernel (Azure CVM) 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 virtual terminal driver in the Linux kernel did not properly handle VGA console font changes, 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-2021-33656) Source: USN-5605-1: Linux kernel (Azure CVM) vulnerabilities

USN-5604-1: LibTIFF vulnerabilities It was discovered that LibTIFF incorrectly handled certain files. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-2867, CVE-2022-2869) It was discovered that LibTIFF incorrectly handled certain files. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2022-2868) Source: USN-5604-1: LibTIFF vulnerabilities

USN-5603-1: Linux kernel (Raspberry Pi) 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 virtual terminal driver in the Linux kernel did not properly handle VGA console font changes, leading to an out-of-bounds write.

USN-5602-1: Linux kernel (Raspberry Pi) 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 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) Norbert Slusarek discovered that a race condition existed in the perf subsystem in the Linux kernel, resulting in a use-after-free vulnerability. A privileged local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-1729) Qiuhao Li, Gaoning Pan, and Yongkang Jia discovered that the KVM hypervisor implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle an illegal instruction in a [ more… ]
