Description
This security bulletin contains information about 3 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) 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.
2) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-1073)
The vulnerability allows an attacker to compromise the affected system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the Linux kernel human interface device (HID) subsystem. An attacker with physical access to the system can insert in a specific way malicious USB device, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code.
3) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-45871)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the IGB driver in drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb/igb_main.c when handling frames larger than the MTU. A remote attacker can send specially crafted traffic to the system, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
