    __btrfs_qgroup_free_meta in fs/btrfs/qgroup.c, and     btrfs_insert_delayed_items in     fs/btrfs/delayed-inode.c.(CVE-2019-19813)In the Linux     kernel 5.4.0-rc2, there is a use-after-free (read) in     the __blk_add_trace function in kernel/trace/blktrace.c     (which is used to fill out a blk_io_trace structure and     place it in a per-cpu sub-buffer).(CVE-2019-19768)In     the Linux kernel before 5.0.6, there is a NULL pointer     dereference in drop_sysctl_table() in     fs/proc/proc_sysctl.c, related to put_links, aka     CID-23da9588037e.(CVE-2019-20054)In the Linux kernel     before 5.2.9, there is an info-leak bug that can be     caused by a malicious USB device in the drivers/     net/can/usb/peak_usb/pcan_usb_pro.c driver, aka     CID-ead16e53c2f0.(CVE-2019-19536)In the Linux kernel     before 5.3.11, there is an info-leak bug that can be     caused by a malicious USB device in the drivers/     net/can/usb/peak_usb/pcan_usb_core.c driver, aka     CID-f7a1337f0d29.(CVE-2019-19534)In the Linux kernel     before 5.3.6, there is a use-after-free bug that can be     caused by a malicious USB device in the drivers/     net/ieee802154/atusb.c driver, aka     CID-7fd25e6fc035.(CVE-2019-19525)Insufficient access     control in a subsystem for Intel (R) processor graphics     in 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th Generation Intel(R) Core(TM)     Processor Families Intel(R) Pentium(R) Processor J, N,     Silver and Gold Series Intel(R) Celeron(R) Processor J,     N, G3900 and G4900 Series Intel(R) Atom(R) Processor A     and E3900 Series Intel(R) Xeon(R) Processor E3-1500 v5     and v6, E-2100 and E-2200 Processor Families Intel(R)     Graphics Driver for Windows before 26.20.100.6813 (DCH)     or 26.20.100.6812 and before 21.20.x.5077     (aka15.45.5077), i915 Linux Driver for Intel(R)     Processor Graphics before versions 5.4-rc7, 5.3.11,     4.19.84, 4.14.154, 4.9.201, 4.4.201 may allow an     authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of     privilege via local access.(CVE-2019-0155)Insufficient     input validation in Kernel Mode Driver in Intel(R) i915     Graphics for Linux before version 5.0 may allow an     authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of     privilege via local     access.(CVE-2019-11085)kernel/sched/fair.c in the Linux     kernel before 5.3.9, when cpu.cfs_quota_us is used     (e.g., with Kubernetes), allows attackers to cause a     denial of service against non-cpu-bound applications by     generating a workload that triggers unwanted slice     expiration, aka CID-de53fd7aedb1. (In other words,     although this slice expiration would typically be seen     with benign workloads, it is possible that an attacker     could calculate how many stray requests are required to     force an entire Kubernetes cluster into a     low-performance state caused by slice expiration, and     ensure that a DDoS attack sent that number of stray     requests. An attack does not affect the stability of     the kernel it only causes mismanagement of application     execution.)(CVE-2019-19922)The evm_verify_hmac function     in security/integrity/evm/evm_main.c in the Linux     kernel before 4.5 does not properly copy data, which     makes it easier for local users to forge MAC values via     a timing side-channel attack.(CVE-2016-2085)The     pcpu_embed_first_chunk function in mm/percpu.c in the     Linux kernel through 4.14.14 allows local users to     obtain sensitive address information by reading dmesg     data from a 'pages/cpu' printk call.(CVE-2018-5995)TSX     Asynchronous Abort condition on some CPUs utilizing     speculative execution may allow an authenticated user     to potentially enable information disclosure via a side     channel with local access.(CVE-2019-11135)An issue was     discovered in drivers/scsi/aacraid/commctrl.c in the     Linux kernel before 4.13. There is potential exposure     of kernel stack memory because aac_send_raw_srb does     not initialize the reply structure.(CVE-2017-18549)An     issue was discovered in drivers/scsi/aacraid/commctrl.c     in the Linux kernel before 4.13. There is potential     exposure of kernel stack memory because     aac_get_hba_info does not initialize the hbainfo     structure.(CVE-2017-18550)In the Linux kernel through     4.15.4, the floppy driver reveals the addresses of     kernel functions and global variables using printk     calls within the function show_floppy in     drivers/block/floppy.c. An attacker can read this     information from dmesg and use the addresses to find     the locations of kernel code and data and bypass kernel     security protections such as KASLR.(CVE-2018-7273)A     heap-based buffer overflow was discovered in the Linux     kernel, all versions 3.x.x and 4.x.x before 4.18.0, in     Marvell WiFi chip driver. The flaw could occur when the     station attempts a connection negotiation during the     handling of the remote devices country settings. This     could allow the remote device to cause a denial of     service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary     code.(CVE-2019-14895)The Linux kernel before 5.4.1 on     powerpc allows Information Exposure because the     Spectre-RSB mitigation is not in place for all     applicable CPUs, aka CID-39e72bf96f58.

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information leaks.

CVE-2017-18509

Denis Andzakovic reported a missing type check in the IPv4 multicast routing implementation. A user with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability (in any user namespace) could use this for denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2018-5995

ADLab of VenusTech discovered that the kernel logged the virtual addresses assigned to per-CPU data, which could make it easier to exploit other vulnerabilities.

CVE-2018-20836

chenxiang reported a race condition in libsas, the kernel subsystem supporting Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) devices, which could lead to a use-after-free. It is not clear how this might be exploited.

CVE-2018-20856

Xiao Jin reported a potential double-free in the block subsystem, in case an error occurs while initialising the I/O scheduler for a block device. It is not clear how this might be exploited.

CVE-2019-1125

It was discovered that most x86 processors could speculatively skip a conditional SWAPGS instruction used when entering the kernel from user mode, and/or could speculatively execute it when it should be skipped.
This is a subtype of Spectre variant 1, which could allow local users to obtain sensitive information from the kernel or other processes. It has been mitigated by using memory barriers to limit speculative execution. Systems using an i386 kernel are not affected as the kernel does not use SWAPGS.

CVE-2019-3882

It was found that the vfio implementation did not limit the number of DMA mappings to device memory. A local user granted ownership of a vfio device could use this to cause a denial of service (out-of-memory condition).

CVE-2019-3900

It was discovered that vhost drivers did not properly control the amount of work done to service requests from guest VMs. A malicious guest could use this to cause a denial of service (unbounded CPU usage) on the host.

CVE-2019-10207

The syzkaller tool found a potential null dereference in various drivers for UART-attached Bluetooth adapters. A local user with access to a pty device or other suitable tty device could use this for denial of service (BUG/oops).

CVE-2019-10638

Amit Klein and Benny Pinkas discovered that the generation of IP packet IDs used a weak hash function, 'jhash'. This could enable tracking individual computers as they communicate with different remote servers and from different networks. The 'siphash' function is now used instead.

CVE-2019-10639

Amit Klein and Benny Pinkas discovered that the generation of IP packet IDs used a weak hash function that incorporated a kernel virtual address. This hash function is no longer used for IP IDs, although it is still used for other purposes in the network stack.

CVE-2019-13631

It was discovered that the gtco driver for USB input tablets could overrun a stack buffer with constant data while parsing the device's descriptor. A physically present user with a specially constructed USB device could use this to cause a denial of service (BUG/oops), or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-13648

Praveen Pandey reported that on PowerPC (ppc64el) systems without Transactional Memory (TM), the kernel would still attempt to restore TM state passed to the sigreturn() system call. A local user could use this for denial of service (oops).

CVE-2019-14283

The syzkaller tool found a missing bounds check in the floppy disk driver. A local user with access to a floppy disk device, with a disk present, could use this to read kernel memory beyond the I/O buffer, possibly obtaining sensitive information.

CVE-2019-14284

The syzkaller tool found a potential division-by-zero in the floppy disk driver. A local user with access to a floppy disk device could use this for denial of service (oops).

(CVE ID not yet assigned)

Denis Andzakovic reported a possible use-after-free in the TCP sockets implementation. A local user could use this for denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

(CVE ID not yet assigned)

The netfilter conntrack subsystem used kernel addresses as user-visible IDs, which could make it easier to exploit other security vulnerabilities.

XSA-300

Julien Grall reported that Linux does not limit the amount of memory which a domain will attempt to baloon out, nor limits the amount of 'foreign / grant map' memory which any individual guest can consume, leading to denial of service conditions (for host or guests).

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 4.9.168-1+deb9u5~deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your linux-4.9 packages.

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information leaks.

  - CVE-2015-8553     Jan Beulich discovered that CVE-2015-2150 was not     completely addressed. If a PCI physical function is     passed through to a Xen guest, the guest is able to     access its memory and I/O regions before enabling     decoding of those regions. This could result in a     denial-of-service (unexpected NMI) on the host.

  The fix for this is incompatible with qemu versions before 2.5.

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information leaks.

This updated advisory text adds a note about the need to install new binary packages.

CVE-2018-5995

ADLab of VenusTech discovered that the kernel logged the virtual addresses assigned to per-CPU data, which could make it easier to exploit other vulnerabilities.

CVE-2018-12126, CVE-2018-12127, CVE-2018-12130, CVE-2019-11091

Multiple researchers have discovered vulnerabilities in the way that Intel processor designs implement speculative forwarding of data filled into temporary microarchitectural structures (buffers). This flaw could allow an attacker controlling an unprivileged process to read sensitive information, including from the kernel and all other processes running on the system, or across guest/host boundaries to read host memory.

See https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/hw-vuln/m ds.html for more details.

To fully resolve these vulnerabilities it is also necessary to install updated CPU microcode. An updated intel-microcode package (only available in Debian non-free) was provided via DLA-1789-1. The updated CPU microcode may also be available as part of a system firmware ('BIOS') update.

CVE-2019-2024

A use-after-free bug was discovered in the em28xx video capture driver. Local users might be able to use this for denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-3459, CVE-2019-3460

Shlomi Oberman, Yuli Shapiro, and Karamba Security Ltd. research team discovered missing range checks in the Bluetooth L2CAP implementation.
If Bluetooth is enabled, a nearby attacker could use these to read sensitive information from the kernel.

CVE-2019-3882

It was found that the vfio implementation did not limit the number of DMA mappings to device memory. A local user granted ownership of a vfio device could use this to cause a denial of service (out-of-memory condition).

CVE-2019-3901

Jann Horn of Google reported a race condition that would allow a local user to read performance events from a task after it executes a setuid program. This could leak sensitive information processed by setuid programs. Debian's kernel configuration does not allow unprivileged users to access peformance events by default, which fully mitigates this issue.

CVE-2019-6133

Jann Horn of Google found that Policykit's authentication check could be bypassed by a local user creating a process with the same start time and process ID as an older authenticated process. PolicyKit was already updated to fix this in DLA-1644-1. The kernel has additionally been updated to avoid a delay between assigning start time and process ID, which should make the attack impractical.

CVE-2019-9503

Hugues Anguelkov and others at Quarkslab discovered that the brcmfmac (Broadcom wifi FullMAC) driver did not correctly distinguish messages sent by the wifi firmware from other packets. An attacker using the same wifi network could use this for denial of service or to exploit other vulnerabilities in the driver.

CVE-2019-11190

Robert &#x15A;wi&#x119;cki reported that when a setuid program was executed it was still possible to read performance events while the kernel set up the program's address space. A local user could use this to defeat ASLR in a setuid program, making it easier to exploit other vulnerabilities in the program. Debian's kernel configuration does not allow unprivileged users to access peformance events by default, which fully mitigates this issue.

CVE-2019-11486

Jann Horn of Google reported numerous race conditions in the Siemens R3964 line discipline. A local user could use these to cause unspecified security impact. This module has therefore been disabled.

CVE-2019-11599

Jann Horn of Google reported a race condition in the core dump implementation which could lead to a use-after-free. A local user could use this to read sensitive information, to cause a denial of service (memory corruption), or for privilege escalation.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 3.16.68-1. This version also includes a fix for Debian bug #927781, and other fixes included in upstream stable updates.

We recommend that you upgrade your linux and linux-latest packages.
You will need to use 'apt-get upgrade --with-new-pkgs' or 'apt upgrade' as the binary package names have changed.

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 :

  - In the Linux kernel through 4.19, a use-after-free can     occur due to a race condition between fanout_add from     setsockopt and bind on an AF_PACKET socket. This issue     exists because of the     15fe076edea787807a7cdc168df832544b58eba6 incomplete fix     for a race condition. The code mishandles a certain     multithreaded case involving a packet_do_bind     unregister action followed by a packet_notifier     register action. Later, packet_release operates on only     one of the two applicable linked lists. The attacker     can achieve Program Counter control.(CVE-2018-18559i1/4%0

  - The acpi_ns_terminate() function in     drivers/acpi/acpica/nsutils.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.12 does not flush the operand cache and causes     a kernel stack dump. A local users could obtain     sensitive information from kernel memory and bypass the     KASLR protection mechanism (in the kernel through 4.9)     via a crafted ACPI table.(CVE-2017-11472i1/4%0

  - Race condition in net/packet/af_packet.c in the Linux     kernel allows local users to cause a denial of service     (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other     impact via a multithreaded application that makes     PACKET_FANOUT setsockopt system calls.(CVE-2017-6346i1/4%0

  - Multiple race conditions in ipc/shm.c in the Linux     kernel before 3.12.2 allow local users to cause a     denial of service (use-after-free and system crash) or     possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted     application that uses shmctl IPC_RMID operations in     conjunction with other shm system     calls.(CVE-2013-7026i1/4%0

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel. A NULL     pointer dereference and panic in hfsplus_lookup() in     the fs/hfsplus/dir.c function can occur when opening a     file (that is purportedly a hard link) in an hfs+     filesystem that has malformed catalog data, and is     mounted read-only without a metadata     directory.(CVE-2018-14617i1/4%0

  - The treo_attach function in drivers/usb/serial/visor.c     in the Linux kernel before 4.5 allows physically     proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL     pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact by inserting a USB device that     lacks a (1) bulk-in or (2) interrupt-in     endpoint.(CVE-2016-2782i1/4%0

  - An information-exposure flaw was found in the Linux     kernel where the pcpu_embed_first_chunk() function in     mm/percpu.c allows local users to obtain kernel-object     address information by reading the kernel log (dmesg).
    However, this address is not static and cannot be used     to commit a further attack.(CVE-2018-5995i1/4%0

  - Buffer overflow in net/ceph/auth_x.c in Ceph, as used     in the Linux kernel before 3.16.3, allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (memory     corruption and panic) or possibly have unspecified     other impact via a long unencrypted auth     ticket.(CVE-2014-6416i1/4%0

  - It was found that the Linux kernel's ptrace subsystem     allowed a traced process' instruction pointer to be set     to a non-canonical memory address without forcing the     non-sysret code path when returning to user space. A     local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to crash     the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges     on the system.Note: The CVE-2014-4699 issue only     affected systems using an Intel CPU.(CVE-2014-4699i1/4%0

  - The snd_compr_tstamp function in     sound/core/compress_offload.c in the Linux kernel     through 4.7, as used in Android before 2016-08-05 on     Nexus 5 and 7 (2013) devices, does not properly     initialize a timestamp data structure, which allows     attackers to obtain sensitive information via a crafted     application, aka Android internal bug 28770164 and     Qualcomm internal bug CR568717.(CVE-2014-9892i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's ext4     file system handled the 'page size i1/4z block size'     condition when the fallocate zero range functionality     was used. A local attacker could use this flaw to crash     the system.(CVE-2015-0275i1/4%0

  - An information leak flaw was found in the way the Linux     kernel's ISO9660 file system implementation accessed     data on an ISO9660 image with RockRidge Extension     Reference (ER) records. An attacker with physical     access to the system could use this flaw to disclose up     to 255 bytes of kernel memory.(CVE-2014-9584i1/4%0

  - The pivot_root implementation in fs/namespace.c in the     Linux kernel through 3.17 does not properly interact     with certain locations of a chroot directory, which     allows local users to cause a denial of service     (mount-tree loop) via . (dot) values in both arguments     to the pivot_root system call.(CVE-2014-7970i1/4%0

  - arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux kernel before     4.8.12 does not properly initialize Code Segment (CS)     in certain error cases, which allows local users to     obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory     via a crafted application.(CVE-2016-9756i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel where the     swiotlb_print_info() function in lib/swiotlb.c allows     local users to obtain some kernel address information     by reading the kernel log (dmesg). This address is not     useful to commit a further attack.(CVE-2018-5953i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's file     system implementation handled rename operations in     which the source was inside and the destination was     outside of a bind mount. A privileged user inside a     container could use this flaw to escape the bind mount     and, potentially, escalate their privileges on the     system.(CVE-2015-2925i1/4%0

  - A use-after-free fault in the Linux kernel's usbtv     driver could allow an attacker to cause a denial of     service (system crash), or have unspecified other     impacts, by triggering failure of audio registration of     USB hardware using the usbtv kernel     module.(CVE-2017-17975i1/4%0

  - The mm subsystem in the Linux kernel through 4.10.10     does not properly enforce the CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM     protection mechanism, which allows local users to read     or write to kernel memory locations in the first     megabyte (and bypass slab-allocation access     restrictions) via an application that opens the     /dev/mem file, related to arch/x86/mm/init.c and     drivers/char/mem.c.(CVE-2017-7889i1/4%0

  - A flaw was discovered in the way the kernel allows     stackable filesystems to overlay. A local attacker who     is able to mount filesystems can abuse this flaw to     escalate privileges.(CVE-2014-9922i1/4%0

  - sound/core/timer.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4.1     retains certain linked lists after a close or stop     action, which allows local users to cause a denial of     service (system crash) via a crafted ioctl call,     related to the (1) snd_timer_close and (2)
    _snd_timer_stop functions.(CVE-2016-2548i1/4%0
