  - It was found that the blk_rq_map_user_iov() function in     the Linux kernel's block device implementation did not     properly restrict the type of iterator, which could     allow a local attacker to read or write to arbitrary     kernel memory locations or cause a denial of service     (use-after-free) by leveraging write access to a     /dev/sg device.(CVE-2016-9576i1/4%0

  - A security flaw was found in the Linux kernel's     networking subsystem that destroying the network     interface with huge number of ipv4 addresses assigned     keeps 'rtnl_lock' spinlock for a very long time (up to     hour). This blocks many network-related operations,     including creation of new incoming ssh connections.The     problem is especially important for containers, as the     container owner has enough permissions to trigger this     and block a network access on a whole host, outside the     container.(CVE-2016-3156i1/4%0

  - The edge_bulk_in_callback function in     drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c in the Linux kernel allows     local users to obtain sensitive information (in the     dmesg ringbuffer and syslog) from uninitialized kernel     memory by using a crafted USB device (posing as an     io_ti USB serial device) to trigger an integer     underflow.(CVE-2017-8924i1/4%0

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel where an     integer overflow in kernel/time/posix-timers.c in the     POSIX timer code is caused by the way the overrun     accounting works. Depending on interval and expiry time     values, the overrun can be larger than INT_MAX, but the     accounting is int based. This basically makes the     accounting values, which are visible to user space via     timer_getoverrun(2) and siginfo::si_overrun,     random.(CVE-2018-12896i1/4%0

  - Since Linux kernel version 3.2, the mremap() syscall     performs TLB flushes after dropping pagetable locks. If     a syscall such as ftruncate() removes entries from the     pagetables of a task that is in the middle of mremap(),     a stale TLB entry can remain for a short time that     permits access to a physical page after it has been     released back to the page allocator and reused. This is     fixed in the following kernel versions: 4.9.135,     4.14.78, 4.18.16, 4.19.(CVE-2018-18281i1/4%0

  - The use of a kzalloc with an integer multiplication     allowed an integer overflow condition to be reached in     vfio_pci_intrs.c. This combined with CVE-2016-9083 may     allow an attacker to craft an attack and use     unallocated memory, potentially crashing the     machine.(CVE-2016-9084i1/4%0

  - The acm_probe function in drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c     in the Linux kernel before 4.5.1 allows physically     proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL     pointer dereference and system crash) via a USB device     without both a control and a data endpoint     descriptor.(CVE-2016-3138i1/4%0

  - It was discovered that root can gain direct access to     an internal keyring, such as '.dns_resolver' in RHEL-7     or '.builtin_trusted_keys' upstream, by joining it as     its session keyring. This allows root to bypass module     signature verification by adding a new public key of     its own devising to the keyring.(CVE-2016-9604i1/4%0

  - An information leak flaw was found in the Linux     kernel's IEEE 802.11 wireless networking     implementation. When software encryption was used, a     remote attacker could use this flaw to leak up to 8     bytes of plaintext.(CVE-2014-8709i1/4%0

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2013:1645 advisory.

    The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux     operating system.

    This update fixes the following security issues:

    * A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's IPv6 implementation     handled certain UDP packets when the UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO)     feature was enabled. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash the     system or, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system.
    (CVE-2013-4387, Important)

    * A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel handled the creation of     temporary IPv6 addresses. If the IPv6 privacy extension was enabled     (/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/eth0/use_tempaddr set to '2'), an attacker on the     local network could disable IPv6 temporary address generation, leading to a     potential information disclosure. (CVE-2013-0343, Moderate)

    * A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel handled HID (Human Interface     Device) reports with an out-of-bounds Report ID. An attacker with physical     access to the system could use this flaw to crash the system or,     potentially, escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2013-2888,     Moderate)

    * An off-by-one flaw was found in the way the ANSI CPRNG implementation in     the Linux kernel processed non-block size aligned requests. This could lead     to random numbers being generated with less bits of entropy than expected     when ANSI CPRNG was used. (CVE-2013-4345, Moderate)

    * It was found that the fix for CVE-2012-2375 released via RHSA-2012:1580     accidentally removed a check for small-sized result buffers. A local,     unprivileged user with access to an NFSv4 mount with ACL support could use     this flaw to crash the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges on     the system . (CVE-2013-4591, Moderate)

    * A flaw was found in the way IOMMU memory mappings were handled when     moving memory slots. A malicious user on a KVM host who has the ability to     assign a device to a guest could use this flaw to crash the host.
    (CVE-2013-4592, Moderate)

    * Heap-based buffer overflow flaws were found in the way the Zeroplus and     Pantherlord/GreenAsia game controllers handled HID reports. An attacker     with physical access to the system could use these flaws to crash the     system or, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system.
    (CVE-2013-2889, CVE-2013-2892, Moderate)

    * Two information leak flaws were found in the logical link control (LLC)     implementation in the Linux kernel. A local, unprivileged user could use     these flaws to leak kernel stack memory to user space. (CVE-2012-6542,     CVE-2013-3231, Low)

    * A heap-based buffer overflow in the way the tg3 Ethernet driver parsed     the vital product data (VPD) of devices could allow an attacker with     physical access to a system to cause a denial of service or, potentially,     escalate their privileges. (CVE-2013-1929, Low)

    * Information leak flaws in the Linux kernel could allow a privileged,     local user to leak kernel memory to user space. (CVE-2012-6545,     CVE-2013-1928, CVE-2013-2164, CVE-2013-2234, Low)

    * A format string flaw was found in the Linux kernel's block layer.
    A privileged, local user could potentially use this flaw to escalate their     privileges to kernel level (ring0). (CVE-2013-2851, Low)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in the Linux kernel :

The ipc_rcu_putref function in ipc/util.c in the Linux kernel before 3.10 does not properly manage a reference count, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption or system crash) via a crafted application (CVE-2013-4483).

The skb_flow_dissect function in net/core/flow_dissector.c in the Linux kernel through 3.12 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a small value in the IHL field of a packet with IPIP encapsulation (CVE-2013-4348).

The Linux kernel before 3.12, when UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) is enabled, does not properly initialize certain data structures, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or possibly gain privileges via a crafted application that uses the UDP_CORK option in a setsockopt system call and sends both short and long packets, related to the ip_ufo_append_data function in net/ipv4/ip_output.c and the ip6_ufo_append_data function in net/ipv6/ip6_output.c (CVE-2013-4470).

The ext4_orphan_del function in fs/ext4/namei.c in the Linux kernel before 3.7.3 does not properly handle orphan-list entries for non-journal filesystems, which allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (system hang) via a crafted filesystem on removable media, as demonstrated by the e2fsprogs tests/f_orphan_extents_inode/image.gz test (CVE-2013-2015).

net/ipv6/ip6_output.c in the Linux kernel through 3.11.4 does not properly determine the need for UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) processing of small packets after the UFO queueing of a large packet, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via network traffic that triggers a large response packet (CVE-2013-4387).

The IPv6 SCTP implementation in net/sctp/ipv6.c in the Linux kernel through 3.11.1 uses data structures and function calls that do not trigger an intended configuration of IPsec encryption, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by sniffing the network (CVE-2013-4350).

The updated packages provides a solution for these security issues.

An information leak was discovered in the handling of ICMPv6 Router Advertisement (RA) messages in the Linux kernel's IPv6 network stack.
A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (excessive retries and address-generation outage), and consequently obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2013-0343)

Kees Cook discovered flaw in the Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem of the Linux kernel. A physically proximate attacker could exploit this flaw to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (heap memory corruption) via a specially crafted device that provides an invalid Report ID. (CVE-2013-2888)

Kees Cook discovered flaw in the Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem when CONFIG_HID_ZEROPLUS is enabled. A physically proximate attacker could leverage this flaw to cause a denial of service via a specially crafted device. (CVE-2013-2889)

Kees Cook discovered a flaw in the Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem of the Linux kerenl when CONFIG_HID_PANTHERLORD is enabled.
A physically proximate attacker could cause a denial of service (heap out-of-bounds write) via a specially crafted device. (CVE-2013-2892)

Kees Cook discovered another flaw in the Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem of the Linux kernel when any of CONFIG_LOGITECH_FF, CONFIG_LOGIG940_FF, or CONFIG_LOGIWHEELS_FF are enabled. A physcially proximate attacker can leverage this flaw to cause a denial of service vias a specially crafted device. (CVE-2013-2893)

Kees Cook discovered another flaw in the Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem of the Linux kernel when CONFIG_HID_LOGITECH_DJ is enabled.
A physically proximate attacker could cause a denial of service (OOPS) or obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a specially crafted device. (CVE-2013-2895)

Kees Cook discovered a vulnerability in the Linux Kernel's Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem's support for N-Trig touch screens. A physically proximate attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (OOPS) via a specially crafted device.
(CVE-2013-2896)

Kees Cook discovered yet another flaw in the Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem of the Linux kernel when CONFIG_HID_MULTITOUCH is enabled. A physically proximate attacker could leverage this flaw to cause a denial of service (OOPS) via a specially crafted device.
(CVE-2013-2897)

Kees Cook discovered a flaw in the Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem of the Linux kernel whe CONFIG_HID_PICOLCD is enabled. A physically proximate attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (OOPS) via a specially crafted device.
(CVE-2013-2899)

Alan Chester reported a flaw in the IPv6 Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) of the Linux kernel. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to obtain sensitive information by sniffing network traffic.
(CVE-2013-4350)

Dmitry Vyukov reported a flaw in the Linux kernel's handling of IPv6 UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) processing. A remote attacker could leverage this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash).
(CVE-2013-4387).

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The do_tkill function in kernel/signal.c in the Linux kernel before 3.8.9 does not initialize a certain data structure, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a crafted application that makes a (1) tkill or (2) tgkill system call.

The udp_v6_push_pending_frames function in net/ipv6/udp.c in the IPv6 implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.10.3 makes an incorrect function call for pending data, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (BUG and system crash) via a crafted application that uses the UDP_CORK option in a setsockopt system call.

net/ipv6/ip6_output.c in the Linux kernel through 3.11.4 does not properly determine the need for UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) processing of small packets after the UFO queueing of a large packet, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via network traffic that triggers a large response packet.

The __request_module function in kernel/kmod.c in the Linux kernel before 3.4 does not set a certain killable attribute, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a crafted application.

Interpretation conflict in drivers/md/dm-snap-persistent.c in the Linux kernel through 3.11.6 allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information or modify data via a crafted mapping to a snapshot block device.

The 3.11.4 stable update contains a number of important fixes across the tree.
