Description

This security bulletin contains information about 10 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-48651)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition in drivers/net/ipvlan/ipvlan_core.c. A remote attacker on the local network can send specially crafted packets to the system, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.


2) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-23307)

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

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in raid5_cache_count() function. A local user can trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


3) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-26610)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the iwl_dbg_tlv_override_trig_node() function in drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/iwl-dbg-tlv.c. A local user can trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


4) Off-by-one (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-26766)

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

The vulnerability exists due to an off-by-one error within the _pad_sdma_tx_descs() function in drivers/infiniband/hw/hfi1/sdma.c. A local user can trigger an off-by-one error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


5) Integer underflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-26828)

The vulnerability allows a local user to execute arbitrary code.

The vulnerability exists due to integer underflow within the parse_server_interfaces() function in fs/smb/client/smb2ops.c. A local user can execute arbitrary code.


6) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-26852)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the ip6_route_multipath_add() and list_for_each_entry_safe() functions in net/ipv6/route.c. A local user can escalate privileges on the system.


7) Improper locking (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-26923)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper locking within the unix_gc() function in net/unix/garbage.c due to garbage collector does not take into account the risk of embryo getting enqueued during the garbage collection. A local user can execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


8) Double free (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-26930)

The vulnerability allows a local user to execute arbitrary code.

The vulnerability exists due to a double free error within the kfree() function in drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_os.c. A local user can execute arbitrary code.


9) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-27398)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the sco_sock_timeout() function in net/bluetooth/sco.c. A remote attacker can trigger a use-after-free error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


10) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-35950)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the drm_client_modeset_probe() function in drivers/gpu/drm/drm_client_modeset.c. A local user can escalate privileges on the system.
