Description

This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.

1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-51043)

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 in drivers/gpu/drm/drm_atomic.c. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.

2) Race condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-6531)

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: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 when the unix garbage collector's deletion of a SKB races with unix_stream_read_generic() on the socket that the SKB is queued on. A local user can exploit the race and escalate privileges on the system.

3) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-6915)

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:Clear

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

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error within the ida_free() function in lib/idr.c. A local user can pass specially crafted data to the system and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
