Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.


1) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-26490)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

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 within the st21nfca_connectivity_event_received() function in drivers/nfc/st21nfca/se.c in Linux kernel. A local user can run a specially crafted program to trigger buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


2) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-36123)

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

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 Linux kernel lacks a certain clear operation for the block starting symbol (.bss). A local user on the Xen PV guest OS can perform a denial of service attack or escalate privileges on the guest OS.


3) Double Free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2588)

CWE-ID: CWE-415 - Double Free

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:A/U:Clear


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.


4) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2585)

CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors

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:P/U:Clear


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.
