Description
This security bulletin contains information about 10 vulnerabilities.
1) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-34319)
CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:H/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a malicious guest to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in netback when processing certain packets. A malicious guest can send specially crafted packets to the backend, trigger memory corruption and crash the hypervisor.
2) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4244)
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 user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the Linux kernel netfilter: nf_tables component. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
3) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-42752)
CWE-ID: CWE-190 - Integer overflow
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 integer overflow within the __alloc_skb() function. A local user can trigger integer overflow and crash the kernel.
4) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-42753)
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 in the netfilter subsystem in Linux kernel. A local user can trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
5) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-42755)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
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 denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the the IPv4 Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) classifier function in the Linux kernel. A local user can trigger an out-of-bounds read error and crash the Linux kernel.
6) Race condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-42756)
CWE-ID: CWE-362 - Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition')
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 race condition in the Netfilter subsystem. A local user can exploit the race between IPSET_CMD_ADD and IPSET_CMD_SWAP and gain crash the kernel.
7) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4622)
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 user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the unix_stream_sendpage() function in af_unix component. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
8) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4623)
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 user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the the Linux kernel net/sched: sch_hfsc (HFSC qdisc traffic control) component. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
9) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4921)
CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free
