Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 vulnerabilities.


1) Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) Race Condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-23084)

CWE-ID: CWE-367 - Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) Race Condition

CVSSv4: 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


The vulnerability allows a local user to bypass implemented security restrictions.

The vulnerability exists due to a race condition in netmap. The total size of the user-provided nmreq to nmreq_copyin() function was first computed and then trusted during the copyin operation. A local user can trigger a race condition, which can lead to memory corruption and code execution. The vulnerability can be used to escape jail environment.


2) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-23085)

CWE-ID: CWE-190 - Integer overflow

CVSSv4: 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


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

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow within the nmreq_copyin() function in netmap. A local user can trigger integer overflow and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges. The vulnerability can be used to escape jail environment.


3) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-23087)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

CVSSv4: 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:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the e1000 network adapter implementation in bhyve(8) hypervisor. A remote attacker with access to the guest OS can send specially crafted traffic via the affected adapter, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the hypervisor.


4) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-23086)

CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow

CVSSv4: 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


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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in mpr, mps, and mpt disk collector drivers. A local user can run a specially crafted program to trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the system with elevated privileges.



5) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-23088)

CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the 802.11 beacon handling routine in FreeBSD Wi-Fi client. A remote attacker with control over the Wi-Fi hotspot can send specially beacon crafted frames to the FreeBSD Wi-Fi client in scanning mode, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the system.


6) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-25032)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when compressing data. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application, trigger memory corruption and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
