Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 vulnerabilities.


1) Processor optimization removal or modification of security-critical code (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-29901)

CWE-ID: CWE-1037 - Processor optimization removal or modification of security-critical code

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/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 the way non-transparent sharing of branch predictor targets between contexts. A local user can exploit the vulnerability to gain access to sensitive information.


2) Deadlock (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-4269)

CWE-ID: CWE-833 - Deadlock

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 an error in the Linux kernel Traffic Control (TC) subsystem. A local user can use a specific network configuration (redirecting egress packets to ingress using TC action "mirred") to trigger a CPU soft lockup.


3) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-28327)

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

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 NULL pointer dereference error within the unix_diag_get_exact() function in net/unix/diag.c. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


4) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-28328)

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

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 NULL pointer dereference error within the az6027 driver in drivers/media/usb/dev-usb/az6027.c in the Linux Kernel. A local user can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


5) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-1380)

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the Broadcom Full MAC Wi-Fi driver (brcmfmac.ko). A local user can trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of kernel memory on the system.


6) Improper Initialization (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-1513)

CWE-ID: CWE-665 - Improper Initialization

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/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 initialization when calling the KVM_GET_DEBUGREGS ioctl on 32-bit systems. A local user can run a specially crafted application to gain access to sensitive information.
