  - The fix for XSA-365 includes initialization of pointers such that subsequent cleanup code wouldn't use     uninitialized or stale values. This initialization went too far and may under certain conditions also     overwrite pointers which are in need of cleaning up. The lack of cleanup would result in leaking     persistent grants. The leak in turn would prevent fully cleaning up after a respective guest has died,     leaving around zombie domains. All Linux versions having the fix for XSA-365 applied are vulnerable.
    XSA-365 was classified to affect versions back to at least 3.11. (CVE-2021-28688)

Security fix for CVE-2017-13693, CVE-2017-13694, CVE-2017-13695.

This provides fixes for the user space ACPICA tools only. Any kernel updates are handled separately.

This update also includes the upgrade to the 20190209 version of the upstream source. 

---------------------------------------- 09 February 2018. Summary of changes for version 20180209 :

1) ACPICA kernel-resident subsystem :

Completed the final integration of the recent changes to Package Object handling and the module-level AML code support. This allows forward references from individual package elements when the package object is declared from within module-level code blocks. Provides compatibility with other ACPI implementations.

The new architecture for the AML module-level code has been completed and is now the default for the ACPICA code. This new architecture executes the module-level code in-line as the ACPI table is loaded/parsed instead of the previous architecture which deferred this code until after the table was fully loaded. This solves some ASL code ordering issues and provides compatibility with other ACPI implementations. At this time, there is an option to fallback to the earlier architecture, but this support is deprecated and is planned to be completely removed later this year.

Added a compile-time option to ignore AE_NOT_FOUND exceptions during resolution of named reference elements within Package objects.
Although this is potentially a serious problem, it can generate a lot of noise/errors on platforms whose firmware carries around a bunch of unused Package objects. To disable these errors, define ACPI_IGNORE_PACKAGE_RESOLUTION_ERRORS in the OS-specific header. All errors are always reported for ACPICA applications such as AcpiExec.

Fixed a regression related to the explicit type-conversion AML operators (ToXXXX). The regression was introduced early in 2017 but was not seen until recently because these operators are not fully supported by other ACPI implementations and are thus rarely used by firmware developers. The operators are defined by the ACPI specification to not implement the 'implicit result object conversion'. The regression incorrectly introduced this object conversion for the following explicit conversion operators :

  - ToInteger

  - ToString

  - ToBuffer

  - ToDecimalString

  - ToHexString

  - ToBCD

2) iASL Compiler/Disassembler and Tools :

iASL: Fixed a problem with the compiler constant folding feature as related to the ToXXXX explicit conversion operators. These operators do not support the 'implicit result object conversion' by definition.
Thus, ASL expressions that use these operators cannot be folded to a simple Store operator because Store implements the implicit conversion. This change uses the CopyObject operator for the ToXXXX operator folding instead. CopyObject is defined to not implement implicit result conversions and is thus appropriate for folding the ToXXXX operators.

iASL: Changed the severity of an error condition to a simple warning for the case where a symbol is declared both locally and as an external symbol. This accommodates existing ASL code.

AcpiExec: The -ep option to enable the new architecture for module-level code has been removed. It is replaced by the -dp option which instead has the opposite effect: it disables the new architecture (the default) and enables the legacy architecture. When the legacy code is removed in the future, the -dp option will be removed also.

The remote Oracle Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2018-4250 advisory.

  - The Linux kernel 4.15 has a Buffer Overflow via an SNDRV_SEQ_IOCTL_SET_CLIENT_POOL ioctl write operation     to /dev/snd/seq by a local user. (CVE-2018-7566)

  - The acpi_ns_evaluate() function in drivers/acpi/acpica/nseval.c in the Linux kernel through 4.12.9 does     not flush the operand cache and causes a kernel stack dump, which allows local users to obtain sensitive     information from kernel memory and bypass the KASLR protection mechanism (in the kernel through 4.9) via a     crafted ACPI table. (CVE-2017-13695)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.18.6. An information leak in cdrom_ioctl_drive_status     in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c could be used by local attackers to read kernel memory because a cast from     unsigned long to int interferes with bounds checking. This is similar to CVE-2018-10940. (CVE-2018-16658)

  - A NULL pointer dereference was found in the net/rds/rdma.c __rds_rdma_map() function in the Linux kernel     before 4.14.7 allowing local attackers to cause a system panic and a denial-of-service, related to     RDS_GET_MR and RDS_GET_MR_FOR_DEST. (CVE-2018-7492)

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

The remote Oracle Linux 6 / 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2018-4245 advisory.

  - The acpi_ns_evaluate() function in drivers/acpi/acpica/nseval.c in the Linux kernel through 4.12.9 does     not flush the operand cache and causes a kernel stack dump, which allows local users to obtain sensitive     information from kernel memory and bypass the KASLR protection mechanism (in the kernel through 4.9) via a     crafted ACPI table. (CVE-2017-13695)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.18.6. An information leak in cdrom_ioctl_drive_status     in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c could be used by local attackers to read kernel memory because a cast from     unsigned long to int interferes with bounds checking. This is similar to CVE-2018-10940. (CVE-2018-16658)

  - A NULL pointer dereference was found in the net/rds/rdma.c __rds_rdma_map() function in the Linux kernel     before 4.14.7 allowing local attackers to cause a system panic and a denial-of-service, related to     RDS_GET_MR and RDS_GET_MR_FOR_DEST. (CVE-2018-7492)

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

The remote Oracle Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2018-4242 advisory.

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.11, as used in Xen through 4.11.x. The     xen_failsafe_callback entry point in arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S does not properly maintain RBX, which     allows local users to cause a denial of service (uninitialized memory usage and system crash). Within Xen,     64-bit x86 PV Linux guest OS users can trigger a guest OS crash or possibly gain privileges.
    (CVE-2018-14678)

  - The acpi_ns_evaluate() function in drivers/acpi/acpica/nseval.c in the Linux kernel through 4.12.9 does     not flush the operand cache and causes a kernel stack dump, which allows local users to obtain sensitive     information from kernel memory and bypass the KASLR protection mechanism (in the kernel through 4.9) via a     crafted ACPI table. (CVE-2017-13695)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.18.6. An information leak in cdrom_ioctl_drive_status     in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c could be used by local attackers to read kernel memory because a cast from     unsigned long to int interferes with bounds checking. This is similar to CVE-2018-10940. (CVE-2018-16658)

  - A NULL pointer dereference was found in the net/rds/rdma.c __rds_rdma_map() function in the Linux kernel     before 4.14.7 allowing local attackers to cause a system panic and a denial-of-service, related to     RDS_GET_MR and RDS_GET_MR_FOR_DEST. (CVE-2018-7492)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3. 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. For example, a local user can cause a denial of service (signed integer     overflow) via crafted mmap, futex, timer_create, and timer_settime system calls. (CVE-2018-12896)

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

(CVE-2017-13695)

  - Linux kernel vhost since version 4.8 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)

  - The acpi_ns_evaluate() function in drivers/acpi/acpica/nseval.c in the Linux kernel through 4.12.9 does     not flush the operand cache and causes a kernel stack dump, which allows local users to obtain sensitive     information from kernel memory and bypass the KASLR protection mechanism (in the kernel through 4.9) via a     crafted ACPI table. (CVE-2017-13695)

  - The perf_cpu_time_max_percent_handler function in kernel/events/core.c in the Linux kernel before 4.11     allows local users to cause a denial of service (integer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other     impact via a large value, as demonstrated by an incorrect sample-rate calculation. (CVE-2017-18255)

  - The __get_data_block function in fs/f2fs/data.c in the Linux kernel before 4.11 allows local users to     cause a denial of service (integer overflow and loop) via crafted use of the open and fallocate system     calls with an FS_IOC_FIEMAP ioctl. (CVE-2017-18257)

  - Linux Kernel version 3.18 to 4.16 incorrectly handles an SG_IO ioctl on /dev/sg0 with     dxfer_direction=SG_DXFER_FROM_DEV and an empty 6-byte cmdp. This may lead to copying up to 1000 kernel     heap pages to the userspace. This has been fixed upstream in     https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/a45b599ad808c3c982fdcdc12b0b8611c2f92824 already. The problem has     limited scope, as users don't usually have permissions to access SCSI devices. On the other hand, e.g. the     Nero user manual suggests doing `chmod o+r+w /dev/sg*` to make the devices accessible. NOTE: third parties     dispute the relevance of this report, noting that the requirement for an attacker to have both the     CAP_SYS_ADMIN and CAP_SYS_RAWIO capabilities makes it virtually impossible to exploit. (CVE-2018-1000204)

  - drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_scsi_host.c in the Linux kernel before 4.16 allows local users to cause a denial     of service (ata qc leak) by triggering certain failure conditions. NOTE: a third party disputes the     relevance of this report because the failure can only occur for physically proximate attackers who unplug     SAS Host Bus Adapter cables (CVE-2018-10021)

  - The kernel_wait4 function in kernel/exit.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 by triggering an     attempted use of the -INT_MIN value. (CVE-2018-10087)

  - 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)

  - System software utilizing Lazy FP state restore technique on systems using Intel Core-based     microprocessors may potentially allow a local process to infer data from another process through a     speculative execution side channel. (CVE-2018-3665)

  - In the Linux Kernel before version 4.16.11, 4.14.43, 4.9.102, and 4.4.133, multiple race condition errors     when handling probe, disconnect, and rebind operations can be exploited to trigger a use-after-free     condition or a NULL pointer dereference by sending multiple USB over IP packets. (CVE-2018-5814)

  - An issue was discovered in the fd_locked_ioctl function in drivers/block/floppy.c in the Linux kernel     through 4.15.7. The floppy driver will copy a kernel pointer to user memory in response to the FDGETPRM     ioctl. An attacker can send the FDGETPRM ioctl and use the obtained kernel pointer to discover the     location of kernel code and data and bypass kernel security protections such as KASLR. (CVE-2018-7755)

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

  - The iscsi_if_rx function in     drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c in the Linux kernel     through 4.13.2 allows local users to cause a denial of     service (panic) by leveraging incorrect length     validation.(CVE-2017-14489)

  - The move_pages system call in mm/migrate.c in the Linux     kernel before 4.12.9 doesn't check the effective uid of     the target process, enabling a local attacker to learn     the memory layout of a setuid executable despite     ASLR.(CVE-2017-14140)

  - The offset2lib patch as used in the Linux Kernel     contains a vulnerability that allows a PIE binary to be     execve()'ed with 1GB of arguments or environmental     strings then the stack occupies the address 0x80000000     and the PIE binary is mapped above 0x40000000     nullifying the protection of the offset2lib patch. This     affects Linux Kernel version 4.11.5 and earlier. This     is a different issue than CVE-2017-1000371. This issue     appears to be limited to i386 based     systems.(CVE-2017-1000370)

  - Race condition in fs/timerfd.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.10.15 allows local users to gain privileges or     cause a denial of service (list corruption or     use-after-free) via simultaneous file-descriptor     operations that leverage improper might_cancel     queueing.(CVE-2017-10661)

  - The acpi_ns_evaluate() function in     drivers/acpi/acpica/nseval.c in the Linux kernel     through 4.12.9 does not flush the operand cache and     causes a kernel stack dump, which allows local users to     obtain sensitive information from kernel memory and     bypass the KASLR protection mechanism (in the kernel     through 4.9) via a crafted ACPI table.(CVE-2017-13695)

  - The acpi_ps_complete_final_op() function in     drivers/acpi/acpica/psobject.c in the Linux kernel     through 4.12.9 does not flush the node and node_ext     caches and causes a kernel stack dump, which allows     local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel     memory and bypass the KASLR protection mechanism (in     the kernel through 4.9) via a crafted ACPI     table.(CVE-2017-13694)

  - The acpi_ds_create_operands() function in     drivers/acpi/acpica/dsutils.c in the Linux kernel     through 4.12.9 does not flush the operand cache and     causes a kernel stack dump, which allows local users to     obtain sensitive information from kernel memory and     bypass the KASLR protection mechanism (in the kernel     through 4.9) via a crafted ACPI table.(CVE-2017-13693)

  - The tcp_disconnect function in net/ipv4/tcp.c in the     Linux kernel before 4.12 allows local users to cause a     denial of service (__tcp_select_window divide-by-zero     error and system crash) by triggering a disconnect     within a certain tcp_recvmsg code path.(CVE-2017-14106)

  - The native Bluetooth stack in the Linux Kernel (BlueZ),     starting at the Linux kernel version 3.3-rc1 and up to     and including 4.13.1, are vulnerable to a stack     overflow vulnerability in the processing of L2CAP     configuration responses resulting in Remote code     execution in kernel space.(CVE-2017-1000251

  - )

  - The prepare_vmcs02 function in arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in     the Linux kernel through 4.13.3 does not ensure that     the 'CR8-load exiting' and 'CR8-store exiting' L0     vmcs02 controls exist in cases where L1 omits the 'use     TPR shadow' vmcs12 control, which allows KVM L2 guest     OS users to obtain read and write access to the     hardware CR8 register.(CVE-2017-12154)
