Description
This security bulletin contains information about 6 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1016)
The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in net/netfilter/nf_tables_core.c:nft_do_chain in Linux kernel.. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and gain access to sensitive information.
2) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-42703)
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 mm/rmap.c in the Linux kernel, related to leaf anon_vma double reuse. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and crash the kernel.
3) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-42896)
The vulnerability allows an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the l2cap_connect() and l2cap_le_connect_req() function in net/bluetooth/l2cap_core.c. An attacker with physical proximity to the affected device can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.
4) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-2002)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper permissions check in the Bluetooth subsystem when handling ioctl system calls of HCI sockets. A local user can acquire a trusted socket, leading to unauthorized execution of management commands.
5) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-2124)
The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack..
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the XFS subsystem in Linux kernel. A local user can trigger an out-of-bounds read error and crash the kernel.
6) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-2235)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in the Linux Kernel Performance Events system. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
