Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.

1) Security restrictions bypass

EUVDB-ID: #VU56904

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 5.2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3653

CWE-ID: CWE-264 - Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a malicious guest to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to improperly imposed security restrictions within the KVM's AMD code for supporting SVM nested virtualization. The flaw occurs when processing the VMCB (virtual machine control block) provided by the L1 guest to spawn/handle a nested guest (L2). Due to improper validation of the "int_ctl" field, this issue could allow a malicious L1 to enable AVIC support (Advanced Virtual Interrupt Controller) for the L2 guest.

As a result, the L2 guest would be allowed to read/write physical pages of the host, resulting in a crash of the entire system, leak of sensitive data or potential guest-to-host escape.

Mitigation

Update the affected package the Linux Kernel (Live Patch 10 for SLE 12 SP5) to the latest version.

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.

3) Incorrect permission assignment for critical resource

EUVDB-ID: #VU63665

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 4.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-38198

CWE-ID: CWE-732 - Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service attack.

The vulnerability exists due to arch/x86/kvm/mmu/paging_tmpl.h incorrectly computes the access permissions of a shadow page. A local user can trigger an error to perform a denial of service attack.

Mitigation

Update the affected package the Linux Kernel (Live Patch 10 for SLE 12 SP5) to the latest version.
