Description

This security bulletin contains information about 8 vulnerabilities.


1) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-47929)

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:Green


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

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error in the traffic control subsystem in Linux kernel. A local user can pass pass a specially crafted traffic control configuration that is set up with "tc qdisc" and "tc class" commands and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


2) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0386)

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:A/U:Clear


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

The vulnerability exists due to unauthorized access to execution of setuid files in OverlayFS subsystem when copying a capable file from a nosuid mount into another mount. A local user can execute arbitrary code with root privileges.


3) Type Confusion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-1075)

CWE-ID: CWE-843 - Type confusion

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 type confusion error within the tls_is_tx_ready() function in the net/tls stack of the Linux Kernel. A local user can trigger a type confusion error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


4) 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.


5) Double Free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26545)

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:U/U:Clear


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

The vulnerability exists due to a double free in net/mpls/af_mpls.c during the renaming of a device. A local user can trigger a double free error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


6) Race condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-28466)

CWE-ID: CWE-362 - Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition')

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/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 race condition caused by a missing lock_sock call within the do_tls_getsockopt() function in net/tls/tls_main.c. A local user can exploit the race and gain unauthorized access to sensitive information and escalate privileges on the system.


7) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-30456)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

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 insufficient validation of consistency for for CR0 and CR4 in arch/x86/kvm/vmx/nested.c in the Linux kernel. A local user can execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


8) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-32233)

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:P/U:Clear


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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in Netfilter nf_tables when processing batch requests. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code with root privileges.
