Description
This security bulletin contains information about 16 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) 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.
2) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-21626)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.
The vulnerability exists due to an internal file descriptor leak that can cause a newly-spawned container process (from runc exec) to have a working directory in the host filesystem namespace or a malicious image to allow a container process to gain access to the host filesystem through runc run. A remote attacker can trick the victim into loading a malicious image to bypass sandbox restrictions and execute arbitrary code on the host OS.
3) 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.
4) 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.
5) 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.
6) 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.
7) 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.
8) 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.
9) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-44487)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improperly control of consumption for internal resources when handling HTTP/2 requests with compressed HEADERS frames. A remote attacker can send a sequence of compressed HEADERS frames followed by RST_STREAM frames and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack, a.k.a. "Rapid Reset".
Note, the vulnerability is being actively exploited in the wild.
10) 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.
11) 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.
12) Observable discrepancy (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-6135)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a side-channel attack in multiple NSS NIST curves, known as "Minerva". A remote attacker can recover the private key and decrypt data passed between server and client.
13) 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.
14) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-28241)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to heap-based buffer over-read in dump_entry_data_list in maxminddb.c. A remote attacker can perform a denial of service attack.
15) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-25033)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in regional allocator. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the server via the ALIGN_UP macro, trigger integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
16) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-39325)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to excessive consumption of internal resources when handling HTTP/2 requests. A remote attacker can bypass the http2.Server.MaxConcurrentStreams setting by creating new connections while the current connections are still being processed, trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
