Description

This security bulletin contains information about 7 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3817)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within the application when checking the long DH keys. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


2) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3446)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within the DH_check(), DH_check_ex() and EVP_PKEY_param_check() function when processing a DH key or DH parameters. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


3) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4622)

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.


4) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-2162)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the scsi_sw_tcp_session_create() function in drivers/scsi/iscsi_tcp.c in SCSI sub-component in the Linux Kernel. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and gain access to sensitive information.


5) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-5678)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within DH_generate_key() and DH_check_pub_key() functions. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


6) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-5633)

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error when running inside a VMware guest with 3D acceleration enabled. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


7) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-42753)

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.
