Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.

1) Resource management error

EUVDB-ID: #VU66394

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2585

CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack or escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources in POSIX CPU timers when handling death of a process. A local user can crash the kernel or execute arbitrary code.

Mitigation

Update the affected package linux-oem-5.14 to the latest version.

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. However, proof of concept for this vulnerability is available.

2) Use-after-free

EUVDB-ID: #VU66396

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2586

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the the netfilter subsystem implementation in Linux kernel when preventing one nft object from referencing an nft set in another nft table. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system with elevated privileges.

Mitigation

Update the affected package linux-oem-5.14 to the latest version.

3) Double Free

EUVDB-ID: #VU66397

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 7.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:H/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2588

CWE-ID: CWE-415 - Double Free

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to a double free error within the network packet scheduler implementation in the route4_change() function in Linux kernel when removing all references to a route filter before freeing it. A local user can run a specially crafted program to crash the kernel or execute arbitrary code.

Mitigation

Update the affected package linux-oem-5.14 to the latest version.
