USN-6040-1: Linux kernel (HWE) vulnerabilities<\/p>\n
It was discovered that the Traffic-Control Index (TCINDEX) implementation
\nin the Linux kernel contained a use-after-free vulnerability. A local
\nattacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or
\npossibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-1281)<\/p>\n
It was discovered that the OverlayFS implementation in the Linux kernel did
\nnot properly handle copy up operation in some conditions. A local attacker
\ncould possibly use this to gain elevated privileges. (CVE-2023-0386)<\/p>\n
Haowei Yan discovered that a race condition existed in the Layer 2
\nTunneling Protocol (L2TP) implementation in the Linux kernel. A local
\nattacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (system
\ncrash). (CVE-2022-4129)<\/p>\n
It was discovered that the network queuing discipline implementation in the
\nLinux kernel contained a null pointer dereference in some situations. A
\nlocal attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash).
\n(CVE-2022-47929)<\/p>\n
It was discovered that the NTFS file system implementation in the Linux
\nkernel contained a null pointer dereference in some situations. A local
\nattacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash).
\n(CVE-2022-4842)<\/p>\n
Kyle Zeng discovered that the IPv6 implementation in the Linux kernel
\ncontained a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability in certain situations. A
\nlocal attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash).
\n(CVE-2023-0394)<\/p>\n
It was discovered that the Human Interface Device (HID) support driver in
\nthe Linux kernel contained a type confusion vulnerability in some
\nsituations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service
\n(system crash). (CVE-2023-1073)<\/p>\n
It was discovered that a memory leak existed in the SCTP protocol
\nimplementation in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to
\ncause a denial of service (memory exhaustion). (CVE-2023-1074)<\/p>\n
It was discovered that the NFS implementation in the Linux kernel did not
\nproperly handle pending tasks in some situations. A local attacker could
\nuse this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or expose sensitive
\ninformation (kernel memory). (CVE-2023-1652)<\/p>\n
