6) Out-of-bounds write

EUVDB-ID: #VU92750

Risk: Low

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-4090

CWE-ID: CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local user to read and manipulate data.

An out-of-bounds (OOB) memory write flaw was found in the NFSD in the Linux kernel. Missing sanity may lead to a write beyond bmval[bmlen-1] in nfsd4_decode_bitmap4 in fs/nfsd/nfs4xdr.c. In this flaw, a local attacker with user privilege may gain access to out-of-bounds memory, leading to a system integrity and confidentiality threat.

Mitigation

Update the affected package linux to the latest version.

7) Out-of-bounds read

EUVDB-ID: #VU95678

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 5.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-4093

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

A flaw was found in the KVM's AMD code for supporting the Secure Encrypted Virtualization-Encrypted State (SEV-ES). A KVM guest using SEV-ES can trigger out-of-bounds reads and writes in the host kernel via a malicious VMGEXIT for a string I/O instruction (for example, outs or ins) using the exit reason SVM_EXIT_IOIO. This issue results in a crash of the entire system or a potential guest-to-host escape scenario.

Mitigation

Update the affected package linux to the latest version.

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-42739

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary within the firewire subsystem in the Linux kernel in drivers/media/firewire/firedtv-avc.c and drivers/media/firewire/firedtv-ci.c files. A local privileged user can run a specially crafted program tat calls avc_ca_pmt() function to trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.

Mitigation

Update the affected package linux to the latest version.
