Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.


1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0240)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After 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:U/U:Clear


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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the io_uring's implementation in io_prep_async_work function. A local authenticated user can trigger a use-after-free error and escalate privileges on the system.


2) Divide by zero (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0615)

CWE-ID: CWE-369 - Divide By Zero

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.

A memory leak flaw and potential divide by 0 and Integer overflow was found in the Linux kernel V4L2 and vivid test code functionality. This issue occurs when a user triggers ioctls, such as VIDIOC_S_DV_TIMINGS ioctl. This could allow a local user to crash the system if vivid test code enabled.


3) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0045)

CWE-ID: CWE-254 - Security Features

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to Linux kernel does not correctly mitigate SMT attacks. A local user can bypass Spectre-BTI user space mitigations and gain access to sensitive information.


4) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-23586)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

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 a use-after-free error in the io_uring subsystem. A local user can gain access to sensitive information.
