Description
This security bulletin contains information about 13 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-49569)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences. A remote attacker can overwrite arbitrary files on the system. Applications are only affected if they are using the ChrootOS, which is the default when using "Plain" versions of Open and Clone funcs (e.g. PlainClone).
2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-49568)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources when handling responses from a Git server. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
3) Uncontrolled Recursion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-21708)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to an uncontrolled recursion. A remote user can execute a specially crafted query and perform a denial of service attack.
4) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-1074)
The vulnerability allows a local user to perform DoS attack on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due memory leak in Linux kernel Stream Control Transmission Protocol. A local user can start a malicious network service and then connect to remotely, forcing the kernel to leak memory.
5) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-6356)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error within the nvmet_tcp_build_iovec() function in the Linux kernel's NVMe driver. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted TCP packets to the system and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
6) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-6535)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error within the nvmet_tcp_execute_request() function in the Linux kernel's NVMe driver. A remote attacker can send specially crafted NVMe-oF/TCP packets to the system and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
7) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-6536)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error within the __nvmet_req_complete() function in the Linux kernel's NVMe driver. A remote attacker can send specially crafted NVMe-oF/TCP packets to the system and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
8) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-6606)
The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the smbCalcSize() function in fs/smb/client/netmisc.c file. A local user can trigger an out-of-bounds read error and gain access to sensitive information or crash the kernel.
9) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-6610)
The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the smb2_dump_detail() function in fs/smb/client/smb2ops.c. A local user can trigger an out-of-bounds read error and gain access to sensitive information or crash the kernel.
10) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-6932)
The vulnerability allows a local authenticated user to execute arbitrary code.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the ipv4 igmp component in Linux kernel. A local authenticated user can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code.
11) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-7192)
The vulnerability allows a local user to perform DoS attack on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due memory leak within the ctnetlink_create_conntrack() function in net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_netlink.c. A local user with CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges can perform denial of service attack.
12) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-45862)
The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the ENE UB6250 reader driver in drivers/usb/storage/ene_ub6250.c. A local user can trigger a boundary error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
13) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-0646)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input in the Linux kernel’s Transport Layer Security functionality in the way a user calls a function splice with a ktls socket as the destination. A local user can trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
