Description

This security bulletin contains information about 7 vulnerabilities.


1) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-40768)

CWE-ID: CWE-284 - Improper Access Control

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


The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to improper access restrictions in the drivers/scsi/stex.c in the Linux kernel. A local user can obtain sensitive information from kernel memory because stex_queuecommand_lck lacks a memset for the PASSTHRU_CMD case.


2) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3621)

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error in the nilfs2 filesystem driver within the nilfs_bmap_lookup_at_level() function in fs/nilfs2/inode.c in Linux kernel. A remote attacker can trick the victim into mounting a specially crafted image and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


3) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3635)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: 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


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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the drivers/atm/idt77252.c in IPsec component of Linux kernel. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and crash the kernel.



4) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-43750)

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

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 drivers/usb/mon/mon_bin.c in usbmon in the Linux kernel. A local user can trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


5) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3629)

CWE-ID: CWE-401 - Missing release of memory after effective lifetime

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


The vulnerability allows a local user to perform DoS attack.

The vulnerability exists due memory leak within the vsock_connect() function in net/vmw_vsock/af_vsock.c in Linux kernel IPSec implementation. A local user can force the system to leak memory and perform denial of service attack.


6) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3646)

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error in the nilfs2 filesystem driver within the nilfs_attach_log_writer() function in fs/nilfs2/segment.c in Linux kernel. A remote attacker can trick the victim into mounting a specially crafted image and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


7) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3586)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in the way the sch_sfb enqueue function used the socket buffer (SKB) cb field after the same SKB had been enqueued (and freed) into a child qdisc. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
