According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz),     the core of any Linux operating system. The kernel     handles the basic functions of the operating system:
    memory allocation, process allocation, device input and     output, etc.Security Fix(es):The walk_hugetlb_range()     function in 'mm/pagewalk.c' file in the Linux kernel     from v4.0-rc1 through v4.15-rc1 mishandles holes in     hugetlb ranges. This allows local users to obtain     sensitive information from uninitialized kernel memory     via crafted use of the mincore() system     call.(CVE-2017-16994)In the Linux kernel before 4.7,     the amd_gpio_remove function in     drivers/pinctrl/pinctrl-amd.c calls the     pinctrl_unregister function, leading to a double     free.(CVE-2017-18174)In the Linux kernel through     4.20.11, af_alg_release() in crypto/af_alg.c neglects     to set a NULL value for a certain structure member,     which leads to a use-after-free in     sockfs_setattr.(CVE-2019-8912)A security flaw was found     in the Linux kernel that an attempt to move page mapped     by AIO ring buffer to the other node triggers NULL     pointer dereference at trace_writeback_dirty_page(),     because aio_fs_backing_dev_info.dev is     0.(CVE-2016-3070)The NFSv4 implementation in the Linux     kernel through 4.11.1 allows local users to cause a     denial of service (resource consumption) by leveraging     improper channel callback shutdown when unmounting an     NFSv4 filesystem, aka a 'module reference and kernel     daemon' leak.(CVE-2017-9059)When creating audit records     for parameters to executed children processes, an     attacker can convince the Linux kernel audit subsystem     can create corrupt records which may allow an attacker     to misrepresent or evade logging of executing     commands.(CVE-2016-6136)A use-after-free vulnerability     was found in a network namespaces code affecting the     Linux kernel since v4.0-rc1 through v4.15-rc5. The     function get_net_ns_by_id() does not check for the     net::count value after it has found a peer network in     netns_ids idr which could lead to double free and     memory corruption. This vulnerability could allow an     unprivileged local user to induce kernel memory     corruption on the system, leading to a crash. Due to     the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be     fully ruled out, although it is thought to be     unlikely.(CVE-2017-15129)A NULL pointer dereference     flaw was found in the rds_ib_laddr_check() function in     the Linux kernel's implementation of Reliable Datagram     Sockets (RDS). A local, unprivileged user could use     this flaw to crash the system.(CVE-2013-7339)A flaw was     found in the Linux kernel key management subsystem in     which a local attacker could crash the kernel or     corrupt the stack and additional memory (denial of     service) by supplying a specially crafted RSA key. This     flaw panics the machine during the verification of the     RSA key.(CVE-2016-8650)The uio_mmap_physical function     in drivers/uio/uio.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12     does not validate the size of a memory block, which     allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory     corruption) or possibly gain privileges via crafted     mmap operations, a different vulnerability than     CVE-2013-4511.(CVE-2013-6763)In the Linux kernel before     4.20.5, attackers can trigger a     drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c use-after-free and     OOPS by arranging for certain simultaneous execution of     the code, as demonstrated by a 'service ipmievd     restart' loop.(CVE-2019-9003)An integer overflow flaw     was found in the way the Linux kernel randomized the     stack for processes on certain 64-bit architecture     systems, such as x86-64, causing the stack entropy to     be reduced by four.(CVE-2015-1593)The     compat_sys_recvmmsg function in net/compat.c in the     Linux kernel before 3.13.2, when CONFIG_X86_X32 is     enabled, allows local users to gain privileges via a     recvmmsg system call with a crafted timeout pointer     parameter.(CVE-2014-0038)The kill_something_info     function in kernel/signal.c in the Linux kernel before     4.13, when an unspecified architecture and compiler is     used, might allow local users to cause a denial of     service via an INT_MIN     argument.(CVE-2018-10124)arch/s390/kernel/head64.S in     the Linux kernel before 3.13.5 on the s390 platform     does not properly handle attempted use of the linkage     stack, which allows local users to cause a denial of     service (system crash) by executing a crafted     instruction.(CVE-2014-2039)A flaw was found in the     Linux kernel in that the aoedisk_debugfs_show()     function in drivers/block/aoe/aoeblk.c allows local     users to obtain some kernel address information by     reading a debugfs file. This address is not useful to     commit a further attack.(CVE-2018-7754)ALSA sequencer     core initializes the event pool on demand by invoking     snd_seq_pool_init() when the first write happens and     the pool is empty. A user can reset the pool size     manually via ioctl concurrently, and this may lead to     UAF or out-of-bound access.(CVE-2018-7566)In the     function wmi_set_ie(), the length validation code does     not handle unsigned integer overflow properly. As a     result, a large value of the 'ie_len' argument can     cause a buffer overflow in all Android releases from     CAF (Android for MSM, Firefox OS for MSM, QRD Android)     using the Linux Kernel.(CVE-2018-5848)The Linux kernel     does not properly initialize memory in messages passed     between virtual guests and the host operating system in     the vhost/vhost.c:vhost_new_msg() function. This can     allow local privileged users to read some kernel memory     contents when reading from the /dev/vhost-net device     file.(CVE-2018-1118)Systems with microprocessors     utilizing speculative execution and speculative     execution of memory reads before the addresses of all     prior memory writes are known may allow unauthorized     disclosure of information to an attacker with local     user access via a side-channel analysis, aka     Speculative Store Bypass (SSB), Variant     4.(CVE-2018-3639)

Updated kernel packages that fix multiple security issues and several bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having Important security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.

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

* A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's futex subsystem handled the requeuing of certain Priority Inheritance (PI) futexes. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2014-3153, Important)

* A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's floppy driver handled user space provided data in certain error code paths while processing FDRAWCMD IOCTL commands. A local user with write access to /dev/fdX could use this flaw to free (using the kfree() function) arbitrary kernel memory. (CVE-2014-1737, Important)

* It was found that the Linux kernel's floppy driver leaked internal kernel memory addresses to user space during the processing of the FDRAWCMD IOCTL command. A local user with write access to /dev/fdX could use this flaw to obtain information about the kernel heap arrangement. (CVE-2014-1738, Low)

Note: A local user with write access to /dev/fdX could use these two flaws (CVE-2014-1737 in combination with CVE-2014-1738) to escalate their privileges on the system.

* It was discovered that the proc_ns_follow_link() function did not properly return the LAST_BIND value in the last pathname component as is expected for procfs symbolic links, which could lead to excessive freeing of memory and consequent slab corruption. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to crash the system.
(CVE-2014-0203, Moderate)

* A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel handled exceptions when user-space applications attempted to use the linkage stack. On IBM S/390 systems, a local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to crash the system. (CVE-2014-2039, Moderate)

* An invalid pointer dereference flaw was found in the Marvell 8xxx Libertas WLAN (libertas) driver in the Linux kernel. A local user able to write to a file that is provided by the libertas driver and located on the debug file system (debugfs) could use this flaw to crash the system. Note: The debugfs file system must be mounted locally to exploit this issue. It is not mounted by default. (CVE-2013-6378, Low)

* A denial of service flaw was discovered in the way the Linux kernel's SELinux implementation handled files with an empty SELinux security context. A local user who has the CAP_MAC_ADMIN capability could use this flaw to crash the system. (CVE-2014-1874, Low)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Oracle Linux security advisory.

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 :

kernel/auditsc.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.5, when CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL is enabled with certain syscall rules, allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive single-bit values from kernel memory or cause a denial of service (OOPS) via a large value of a syscall number (CVE-2014-3917).

The futex_requeue function in kernel/futex.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.5 does not ensure that calls have two different futex addresses, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted FUTEX_REQUEUE command that facilitates unsafe waiter modification (CVE-2014-3153).

Race condition in the ath_tx_aggr_sleep function in drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/xmit.c in the Linux kernel before 3.13.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a large amount of network traffic that triggers certain list deletions (CVE-2014-2672).

The (1) BPF_S_ANC_NLATTR and (2) BPF_S_ANC_NLATTR_NEST extension implementations in the sk_run_filter function in net/core/filter.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.3 do not check whether a certain length value is sufficiently large, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (integer underflow and system crash) via crafted BPF instructions. NOTE: the affected code was moved to the
__skb_get_nlattr and __skb_get_nlattr_nest functions before the vulnerability was announced (CVE-2014-3144).

The BPF_S_ANC_NLATTR_NEST extension implementation in the sk_run_filter function in net/core/filter.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.3 uses the reverse order in a certain subtraction, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (over-read and system crash) via crafted BPF instructions. NOTE: the affected code was moved to the __skb_get_nlattr_nest function before the vulnerability was announced (CVE-2014-3145).

Integer overflow in the ping_init_sock function in net/ipv4/ping.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and system crash) or possibly gain privileges via a crafted application that leverages an improperly managed reference counter (CVE-2014-2851).

The n_tty_write function in drivers/tty/n_tty.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.3 does not properly manage tty driver access in the LECHO !OPOST case, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or gain privileges by triggering a race condition involving read and write operations with long strings (CVE-2014-0196).

The raw_cmd_copyout function in drivers/block/floppy.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.3 does not properly restrict access to certain pointers during processing of an FDRAWCMD ioctl call, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel heap memory by leveraging write access to a /dev/fd device (CVE-2014-1738).

The raw_cmd_copyin function in drivers/block/floppy.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.3 does not properly handle error conditions during processing of an FDRAWCMD ioctl call, which allows local users to trigger kfree operations and gain privileges by leveraging write access to a /dev/fd device (CVE-2014-1737).

The rds_iw_laddr_check function in net/rds/iw.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a bind system call for an RDS socket on a system that lacks RDS transports (CVE-2014-2678).

drivers/vhost/net.c in the Linux kernel before 3.13.10, when mergeable buffers are disabled, does not properly validate packet lengths, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and host OS crash) or possibly gain privileges on the host OS via crafted packets, related to the handle_rx and get_rx_bufs functions (CVE-2014-0077).

The ip6_route_add function in net/ipv6/route.c in the Linux kernel through 3.13.6 does not properly count the addition of routes, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a flood of ICMPv6 Router Advertisement packets (CVE-2014-2309).

Multiple array index errors in drivers/hid/hid-multitouch.c in the Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.11, when CONFIG_HID_MULTITOUCH is enabled, allow physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (heap memory corruption, or NULL pointer dereference and OOPS) via a crafted device (CVE-2013-2897).

net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_proto_dccp.c in the Linux kernel through 3.13.6 uses a DCCP header pointer incorrectly, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a DCCP packet that triggers a call to the (1) dccp_new, (2) dccp_packet, or (3) dccp_error function (CVE-2014-2523).

Race condition in the mac80211 subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.13.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via network traffic that improperly interacts with the WLAN_STA_PS_STA state (aka power-save mode), related to sta_info.c and tx.c (CVE-2014-2706).

The sctp_sf_do_5_1D_ce function in net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c in the Linux kernel through 3.13.6 does not validate certain auth_enable and auth_capable fields before making an sctp_sf_authenticate call, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via an SCTP handshake with a modified INIT chunk and a crafted AUTH chunk before a COOKIE_ECHO chunk (CVE-2014-0101).

The cifs_iovec_write function in fs/cifs/file.c in the Linux kernel through 3.13.5 does not properly handle uncached write operations that copy fewer than the requested number of bytes, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory, cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash), or possibly gain privileges via a writev system call with a crafted pointer (CVE-2014-0069).

arch/s390/kernel/head64.S in the Linux kernel before 3.13.5 on the s390 platform does not properly handle attempted use of the linkage stack, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) by executing a crafted instruction (CVE-2014-2039).

Buffer overflow in virt/kvm/irq_comm.c in the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.2.24 allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors related to Message Signaled Interrupts (MSI), irq routing entries, and an incorrect check by the setup_routing_entry function before invoking the kvm_set_irq function (CVE-2012-2137).

The security_context_to_sid_core function in security/selinux/ss/services.c in the Linux kernel before 3.13.4 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) by leveraging the CAP_MAC_ADMIN capability to set a zero-length security context (CVE-2014-1874).

The updated packages provides a solution for these security issues.

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a denial of service, information leak or privilege escalation. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems :

  - CVE-2013-0343     George Kargiotakis reported an issue in the temporary     address handling of the IPv6 privacy extensions.
