Description

This security bulletin contains information about 9 vulnerabilities.


1) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-21781)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/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 insufficient input validation in UEFI firmware. A local privileged user can gain access to sensitive information or perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-21829)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/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 insufficient input validation in UEFI firmware error handler. A local privileged user can execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


3) Race condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-23599)

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:H/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 race condition in Seamless Firmware Updates for some Intel reference platforms. A local user can exploit the race and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


4) Observable discrepancy (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-23984)

CWE-ID: CWE-203 - Observable discrepancy

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


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

The vulnerability exists due to observable discrepancy in Running Average Power Limit (RAPL) interface. A local privileged user can gain access to potentially sensitive information.


5) State Issues (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-24968)

CWE-ID: CWE-371 - State Issues

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/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 attack.

The vulnerability exists due to improper finite state machines (FSMs) in hardware logic. A local privileged user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


6) Insufficient Control Flow Management (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-25565)

CWE-ID: CWE-691 - Insufficient Control Flow Management

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient control flow management. A local attacker can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


7) Improper finite state machines in hardware logic (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-21853)

CWE-ID: CWE-1245 - Improper Finite State Machines (FSMs) in Hardware Logic

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 an error in hardware logic. A local unprivileged user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


8) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-52340)

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


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

The vulnerability exists due to an error when processing very large ICMPv6 packets. A remote attacker can send a flood of IPv6 ICMP6 PTB messages, cause the high lock contention and increased CPU usage, leading to a denial of service.

Successful vulnerability exploitation requires a attacker to be on the local network or have a high bandwidth connection.


9) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-42154)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

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 improper input validation within the sizeof() function in net/ipv4/tcp_metrics.c. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
