Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 5 vulnerabilities.
EUVDB-ID: #VU28928
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 4.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2020-0543
CWE-ID:
CWE-200 - Information exposure
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to incomplete cleanup from specific special register read operations in some Intel(R) Processors. A local user can gain unauthorized access to sensitive information on the system.
MitigationUpdate the affected packages.
Opensuse: 15.2
External linkshttp://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2020-07/msg00031.html
Q & A
Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?
No. This vulnerability can be exploited locally. The attacker should have authentication credentials and successfully authenticate on the system.
Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?
No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.
EUVDB-ID: #VU29601
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 5.2 [CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2020-15563
CWE-ID:
CWE-822 - Untrusted Pointer Dereference
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to inverted code paths in x86 dirty VRAM tracking in Xen. An attacker with access to HVM guest operating system can crash the hypervisor.
Note: the vulnerability affects x86 systems only.
Update the affected packages.
Opensuse: 15.2

Q & A
Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?
Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote authenticated user via the local network (LAN).
Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?
No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability. However, proof of concept for this vulnerability is available.
EUVDB-ID: #VU29600
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 7.2 [CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2020-15565
CWE-ID:
CWE-264 - Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to escalate privileges on the system or perform a denial of service attack.
The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly impose security restrictions. When page tables are shared between IOMMU and CPU, changes to them require flushing of both TLBs. Furthermore, IOMMUs may be non-coherent, and hence prior to flushing IOMMU TLBs, a CPU cache also needs writing back to memory after changes were made. Such writing back of cached data was missing in particular when splitting large page mappings into smaller granularity ones. A malicious guest may be able to retain read/write DMA access to frames returned to Xen's free pool, and later reused for another purpose.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allows privileges escalation on the host operating system.
Note: the vulnerability affects Intel x86 systems only.
Update the affected packages.

EUVDB-ID: #VU29602
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 6.1 [CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2020-15566
CWE-ID:
CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper error handling in event-channel port allocation in Xen. An attacker with access to guest operating system can consume more than 1023 event channels and crash the hypervisor.
Update the affected packages.
