An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.2.1. There is a use-after-free caused by a malicious USB device in the drivers/net/wireless/intersil/p54/p54usb.c driver.

The remote Oracle Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2020-5755 advisory.

  - A flaw that allowed an attacker to corrupt memory and possibly escalate privileges was found in the     mwifiex kernel module while connecting to a malicious wireless network. (CVE-2019-3846)

  - A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel's SELinux subsystem in versions before 5.7.
    This flaw occurs while importing the Commercial IP Security Option (CIPSO) protocol's category bitmap into     the SELinux extensible bitmap via the' ebitmap_netlbl_import' routine. While processing the CIPSO     restricted bitmap tag in the 'cipso_v4_parsetag_rbm' routine, it sets the security attribute to indicate     that the category bitmap is present, even if it has not been allocated. This issue leads to a NULL pointer     dereference issue while importing the same category bitmap into SELinux. This flaw allows a remote network     user to crash the system kernel, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2020-10711)

  - 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)

  - An issue was found in Linux kernel before 5.5.4. mwifiex_ret_wmm_get_status() in     drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/wmm.c allows a remote AP to trigger a heap-based buffer overflow     because of an incorrect memcpy, aka CID-3a9b153c5591. (CVE-2020-12654)

  - Incomplete cleanup from specific special register read operations in some Intel(R) Processors may allow an     authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2020-0543)

  - usb_sg_cancel in drivers/usb/core/message.c in the Linux kernel before 5.6.8 has a use-after-free because     a transfer occurs without a reference, aka CID-056ad39ee925. (CVE-2020-12464)

  - An issue was found in Linux kernel before 5.5.4. The mwifiex_cmd_append_vsie_tlv() function in     drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/scan.c allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of     service because of an incorrect memcpy and buffer overflow, aka CID-b70261a288ea. (CVE-2020-12653)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.6.5. There is a use-after-free in block/bfq-iosched.c     related to bfq_idle_slice_timer_body. (CVE-2020-12657)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.0.10. There is a use-after-free in the sound     subsystem because card disconnection causes certain data structures to be deleted too early. This is     related to sound/core/init.c and sound/core/info.c. (CVE-2019-15214)

  - In the Linux kernel before 5.3.4, there is an info-leak bug that can be caused by a malicious USB device     in the drivers/media/usb/ttusb-dec/ttusb_dec.c driver, aka CID-a10feaf8c464. (CVE-2019-19533)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.2.1. There is a use-after-free caused by a malicious     USB device in the drivers/net/wireless/intersil/p54/p54usb.c driver. (CVE-2019-15220)

  - A memory leak in the cx23888_ir_probe() function in drivers/media/pci/cx23885/cx23888-ir.c in the Linux     kernel through 5.3.11 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering     kfifo_alloc() failures, aka CID-a7b2df76b42b. (CVE-2019-19054)

  - kernel/bpf/verifier.c in the Linux kernel before 4.20.6 performs undesirable out-of-bounds speculation on     pointer arithmetic in various cases, including cases of different branches with different state or limits     to sanitize, leading to side-channel attacks. (CVE-2019-7308)

  - There is a use-after-free in kernel versions before 5.5 due to a race condition between the release of     ptp_clock and cdev while resource deallocation. When a (high privileged) process allocates a ptp device     file (like /dev/ptpX) and voluntarily goes to sleep. During this time if the underlying device is removed,     it can cause an exploitable condition as the process wakes up to terminate and clean all attached files.
    The system crashes due to the cdev structure being invalid (as already freed) which is pointed to by the     inode. (CVE-2020-10690)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux Kernel in versions after 4.5-rc1 in the way mremap handled DAX Huge Pages.
    This flaw allows a local attacker with access to a DAX enabled storage to escalate their privileges on the     system. (CVE-2020-10757)

  - The __mptctl_ioctl function in drivers/message/fusion/mptctl.c in the Linux kernel before 5.4.14 allows     local users to hold an incorrect lock during the ioctl operation and trigger a race condition, i.e., a     double fetch vulnerability, aka CID-28d76df18f0a. NOTE: the vendor states The security impact of this     bug is not as bad as it could have been because these operations are all privileged and root already has     enormous destructive power. (CVE-2020-12652)

  - An issue was discovered in xfs_agf_verify in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_alloc.c in the Linux kernel through 5.6.10.
    Attackers may trigger a sync of excessive duration via an XFS v5 image with crafted metadata, aka     CID-d0c7feaf8767. (CVE-2020-12655)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.6.11. sg_write lacks an sg_remove_request call in a     certain failure case, aka CID-83c6f2390040. (CVE-2020-12770)

  - 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)

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

New kernel packages are available for Slackware 14.2 to fix security issues.

According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS 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):Heap-based buffer overflow     in the udf_load_logicalvol function in fs/udf/super.c     in the Linux kernel before 3.4.5 allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash)     or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted     UDF filesystem.(CVE-2012-3400)The     mmc_ioctl_cdrom_read_data function in     drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c in the Linux kernel through 3.10     allows local users to obtain sensitive information from     kernel memory via a read operation on a malfunctioning     CD-ROM drive.(CVE-2013-2164)The     sctp_sf_do_5_2_4_dupcook function in     net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c in the SCTP implementation in     the Linux kernel before 3.8.5 does not properly handle     associations during the processing of a duplicate     COOKIE ECHO chunk, which allows remote attackers to     cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and     system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact     via crafted SCTP traffic.(CVE-2013-2206)The (1)     get_user and (2) put_user API functions in the Linux     kernel before 3.5.5 on the v6k and v7 ARM platforms do     not validate certain addresses, which allows attackers     to read or modify the contents of arbitrary kernel     memory locations via a crafted application, as     exploited in the wild against Android devices in     October and November 2013.(CVE-2013-6282)An issue was     discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.20. There is a     race condition in smp_task_timedout() and     smp_task_done() in drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_expander.c,     leading to a use-after-free.(CVE-2018-20836)The Siemens     R3964 line discipline driver in drivers/tty/n_r3964.c     in the Linux kernel before 5.0.8 has multiple race     conditions.(CVE-2019-11486)The Linux kernel before     5.1-rc5 allows page->_refcount reference count     overflow, with resultant use-after-free issues, if     about 140 GiB of RAM exists. This is related to     fs/fuse/dev.c, fs/pipe.c, fs/splice.c,     include/linux/mm.h, include/linux/pipe_fs_i.h,     kernel/trace/trace.c, mm/gup.c, and mm/hugetlb.c. It     can occur with FUSE requests.(CVE-2019-11487)The     coredump implementation in the Linux kernel before     5.0.10 does not use locking or other mechanisms to     prevent vma layout or vma flags changes while it runs,     which allows local users to obtain sensitive     information, cause a denial of service, or possibly     have unspecified other impact by triggering a race     condition with mmget_not_zero or get_task_mm calls.
    This is related to fs/userfaultfd.c, mm/mmap.c,     fs/proc/task_mmu.c, and     drivers/infiniband/core/uverbs_main.c.(CVE-2019-11599)A     n issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before     5.0.7. A NULL pointer dereference can occur when     megasas_create_frame_pool() fails in     megasas_alloc_cmds() in     drivers/scsi/megaraid/megaraid_sas_base.c. This causes     a Denial of Service, related to a     use-after-free.(CVE-2019-11810)An issue was discovered     in the Linux kernel before 5.0.4. There is a     use-after-free upon attempted read access to     /proc/ioports after the ipmi_si module is removed,     related to drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c,     drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_mem_io.c, and     drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_port_io.c.(CVE-2019-11811)A     flaw was found in the Linux kernel's handle_rx()     function in the [vhost_net] driver. A malicious virtual     guest, under specific conditions, can trigger an     out-of-bounds write in a kmalloc-8 slab on a virtual     host which may lead to a kernel memory corruption and a     system panic. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege     escalation cannot be fully ruled out. Versions from     v4.16 and newer are vulnerable.(CVE-2018-16880)An issue     was discovered in rds_tcp_kill_sock in net/rds/tcp.c in     the Linux kernel before 5.0.8. There is a race     condition leading to a use-after-free, related to net     namespace cleanup.(CVE-2019-11815)A flaw was found in     the Linux kernel in the function     hid_debug_events_read() in drivers/hid/hid-debug.c file     which may enter an infinite loop with certain     parameters passed from a userspace. A local privileged     user ('root') can cause a system lock up and a denial     of service. Versions from v4.18 and newer are     vulnerable.(CVE-2019-3819)A flaw was found in the Linux     kernel's vfio interface implementation that permits     violation of the user's locked memory limit. If a     device is bound to a vfio driver, such as vfio-pci, and     the local attacker is administratively granted     ownership of the device, it may cause a system memory     exhaustion and thus a denial of service (DoS). Versions     3.10, 4.14 and 4.18 are vulnerable.(CVE-2019-3882)An     infinite loop issue was found in the vhost_net kernel     module in Linux Kernel up to and including v5.1-rc6,     while handling incoming packets in handle_rx(). It     could occur if one end sends packets faster than the     other end can process them. A guest user, maybe remote     one, could use this flaw to stall the vhost_net kernel     thread, resulting in a DoS scenario.(CVE-2019-3900)In     the Linux Kernel before versions 4.20.8 and 4.19.21 a     use-after-free error in the 'sctp_sendmsg()' function     (net/sctp/socket.c) when handling SCTP_SENDALL flag can     be exploited to corrupt memory.(CVE-2019-8956)A flaw     was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of ext4     extent management. The kernel doesn't correctly     initialize memory regions in the extent tree block     which may be exported to a local user to obtain     sensitive information by reading empty/uninitialized     data from the filesystem.(CVE-2019-11833)An issue was     discovered in drm_load_edid_firmware in     drivers/gpu/drm/drm_edid_load.c in the Linux kernel     through 5.1.5. There is an unchecked kstrdup of fwstr,     which might allow an attacker to cause a denial of     service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash).
    NOTE: The vendor disputes this issues as not being a     vulnerability because kstrdup() returning NULL is     handled sufficiently and there is no chance for a NULL     pointer dereference.(CVE-2019-12382)An issue was     discovered in the efi subsystem in the Linux kernel     through 5.1.5. phys_efi_set_virtual_address_map in     arch/x86/platform/efi/efi.c and efi_call_phys_prolog in     arch/x86/platform/efi/efi_64.c mishandle memory     allocation failures. NOTE: This id is disputed as not     being an issue because ?All the code touched by the     referenced commit runs only at boot, before any user     processes are started. Therefore, there is no     possibility for an unprivileged user to control     it.(CVE-2019-12380)An issue was discovered in the Linux     kernel before 5.2.3. An out of bounds access exists in     the function hclge_tm_schd_mode_vnet_base_cfg in the     file drivers     et/ethernet/hisilicon/hns3/hns3pf/hclge_tm.c.(CVE-2019-     15925)An issue was discovered in     dlpar_parse_cc_property in     arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/dlpar.c in the Linux     kernel through 5.1.6. There is an unchecked kstrdup of     prop-i1/4zname, which might allow an attacker to cause a     denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system     crash).(CVE-2019-12614)An issue was discovered in     net/ipv4/sysctl_net_ipv4.c in the Linux kernel before     5.0.11. There is a net/ipv4/tcp_input.c signed integer     overflow in tcp_ack_update_rtt() when userspace writes     a very large integer to     /proc/syset/ipv4/tcp_min_rtt_wlen, leading to a denial     of service or possibly unspecified other impact, aka     CID-19fad20d15a6.(CVE-2019-18805)A flaw was found in     the way PTRACE_TRACEME functionality was handled in the     Linux kernel. The kernel's implementation of ptrace can     inadvertently grant elevated permissions to an attacker     who can then abuse the relationship between the tracer     and the process being traced. This flaw could allow a     local, unprivileged user to increase their privileges     on the system or cause a denial of     service.(CVE-2019-13272)An issue was discovered in     ip6_ra_control in net/ipv6/ipv6_sockglue.c in the Linux     kernel through 5.1.5. There is an unchecked kmalloc of     new_ra, which might allow an attacker to cause a denial     of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash).
    NOTE: This has been disputed as not an     issue.(CVE-2019-12378)An issue was discovered in     ip_ra_control in net/ipv4/ip_sockglue.c in the Linux     kernel through 5.1.5. There is an unchecked kmalloc of     new_ra, which might allow an attacker to cause a denial     of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash).
    NOTE: this is disputed because new_ra is never used if     it is NULL.(CVE-2019-12381)An issue was discovered in     sunxi_divs_clk_setup in drivers/clk/sunxi/clk-sunxi.c     in the Linux kernel through 5.1.5. There is an     unchecked kstrndup of derived_name, which might allow     an attacker to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and system crash). NOTE: This id is     disputed as not being an issue because 'The memory     allocation that was not checked is part of a code that     only runs at boot time, before user processes are     started. Therefore, there is no possibility for an     unprivileged user to control it, and no denial of     service.'.(CVE-2019-12455)An issue was discovered in     the MPT3COMMAND case in _ctl_ioctl_main in     drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_ctl.c in the Linux kernel     through 5.1.5. It allows local users to cause a denial     of service or possibly have unspecified other impact by     changing the value of ioc_number between two kernel     reads of that value, aka a ''double fetch''     vulnerability. NOTE: a third party reports that this is     unexploitable because the doubly fetched value is not     used.(CVE-2019-12456)An issue was discovered in     get_vdev_port_node_info in arch/sparc/kernel/mdesc.c in     the Linux kernel through 5.1.6. There is an unchecked     kstrdup_const of node_info-i1/4zvdev_port.name, which     might allow an attacker to cause a denial of service     (NULL pointer dereference and system     crash).(CVE-2019-12615)In parse_hid_report_descriptor     in drivers/input/tablet/gtco.c in the Linux kernel     through 5.2.1, a malicious USB device can send an HID     report that triggers an out-of-bounds write during     generation of debugging messages.(CVE-2019-13631)A     vulnerability was found in the Linux kernelaEURtms floppy     disk driver implementation. A local attacker with     access to the floppy device could call set_geometry in     drivers/block/floppy.c, which does not validate the     sect and head fields, causing an integer overflow and     out-of-bounds read. This flaw may crash the system or     allow an attacker to gather information causing     subsequent successful     attacks.(CVE-2019-14283)check_input_term in     sound/usb/mixer.c in the Linux kernel through 5.2.9     mishandles recursion, leading to kernel stack     exhaustion.(CVE-2019-15118)An issue was discovered in     the Linux kernel before 5.2.6. There is a     use-after-free caused by a malicious USB device in the     drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c driver because     drivers/media/radio/radio-raremono.c does not properly     allocate memory.(CVE-2019-15211)An issue was discovered     in the Linux kernel before 5.0.10. There is a     use-after-free in the sound subsystem because card     disconnection causes certain data structures to be     deleted too early. This is related to sound/core/init.c     and sound/core/info.c.(CVE-2019-15214)An issue was     discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.1.8. There is a     NULL pointer dereference caused by a malicious USB     device in the drivers/media/usb/siano/smsusb.c     driver.(CVE-2019-15218)An issue was discovered in the     Linux kernel before 5.1.8. There is a NULL pointer     dereference caused by a malicious USB device in the     drivers/usb/misc/sisusbvga/sisusb.c     driver.(CVE-2019-15219)An issue was discovered in the     Linux kernel before 5.2.1. There is a use-after-free     caused by a malicious USB device in the     driverset/wireless/intersil/p54/p54usb.c     driver.(CVE-2019-15220)An issue was discovered in the     Linux kernel before 5.1.17. There is a NULL pointer     dereference caused by a malicious USB device in the     sound/usb/line6/pcm.c driver.(CVE-2019-15221)An issue     was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.0.9. There     is a use-after-free in atalk_proc_exit, related to     net/appletalk/atalk_proc.c, net/appletalk/ddp.c, and     net/appletalk/sysctl_net_atalk.c.(CVE-2019-15292)An     issue was discovered in xfs_setattr_nonsize in     fs/xfs/xfs_iops.c in the Linux kernel through 5.2.9.
    XFS partially wedges when a chgrp fails on account of     being out of disk quota. xfs_setattr_nonsize is failing     to unlock the ILOCK after the xfs_qm_vop_chown_reserve     call fails. This is primarily a local DoS attack     vector, but it might result as well in remote DoS if     the XFS filesystem is exported for instance via     NFS.(CVE-2019-15538)An issue was discovered in the     Linux kernel before 5.0.19. There is an out-of-bounds     array access in __xfrm_policy_unlink, which will cause     denial of service, because verify_newpolicy_info in     net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c mishandles directory     validation.(CVE-2019-15666)In the Linux kernel before     5.1.13, there is a memory leak in     drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_expander.c when SAS expander     discovery fails. This will cause a BUG and denial of     service.(CVE-2019-15807)An issue was discovered in the     Linux kernel before 5.0.5. There is a use-after-free     issue when hci_uart_register_dev() fails in     hci_uart_set_proto() in     drivers/bluetooth/hci_ldisc.c.(CVE-2019-15917)An issue     was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.0.10.
    SMB2_write in fs/cifs/smb2pdu.c has a     use-after-free.(CVE-2019-15919)An issue was discovered     in the Linux kernel before 5.0.10. SMB2_read in     fs/cifs/smb2pdu.c has a use-after-free. NOTE: this was     not fixed correctly in 5.0.10 see the 5.0.11 ChangeLog,     which documents a memory leak.(CVE-2019-15920)An issue     was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.0.4. The 9p     filesystem did not protect i_size_write() properly,     which causes an i_size_read() infinite loop and denial     of service on SMP systems.(CVE-2019-16413)An issue was     discovered in can_can_gw_rcv in net/can/gw.c in the     Linux kernel through 4.19.13. The CAN frame     modification rules allow bitwise logical operations     that can be also applied to the can_dlc field. Because     of a missing check, the CAN drivers may write arbitrary     content beyond the data registers in the CAN     controller's I/O memory when processing can-gw     manipulated outgoing frames. This is related to     cgw_csum_xor_rel. An unprivileged user can trigger a     system crash (general protection     fault).(CVE-2019-3701)A flaw was found in the Linux     kernel's Marvell wifi chip driver. A heap overflow in     mwifiex_update_bss_desc_with_ie function in     marvell/mwifiex/scan.c allows remote attackers to cause     a denial of service(system crash) or execute arbitrary     code.(CVE-2019-3846)A new software page cache side     channel attack scenario was discovered in operating     systems that implement the very common 'page cache'     caching mechanism. A malicious user/process could use     'in memory' page-cache knowledge to infer access     timings to shared memory and gain knowledge which can     be used to reduce effectiveness of cryptographic     strength by monitoring algorithmic behavior, infer     access patterns of memory to determine code paths     taken, and exfiltrate data to a blinded attacker     through page-granularity access times as a     side-channel.(CVE-2019-5489)In the Android kernel in     the video driver there is a kernel pointer leak due to     a WARN_ON statement. This could lead to local     information disclosure with System execution privileges     needed. User interaction is not needed for     exploitation.(CVE-2019-9455)A vulnerability was found     in the arch/x86/lib/insn-eval.c function in the Linux     kernel. An attacker could corrupt the memory due to a     flaw in use-after-free access to an LDT entry caused by     a race condition between modify_ldt() and a #BR     exception for an MPX bounds violation.(CVE-2019-13233)

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

CVE-2016-10905

A race condition was discovered in the GFS2 file-system implementation, which could lead to a use-after-free. On a system using GFS2, a local attacker could use this for denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2018-20976

It was discovered that the XFS file-system implementation did not correctly handle some mount failure conditions, which could lead to a use-after-free. The security impact of this is unclear.

CVE-2018-21008

It was discovered that the rsi wifi driver did not correctly handle some failure conditions, which could lead to a use-after- free. The security impact of this is unclear.

CVE-2019-0136

It was discovered that the wifi soft-MAC implementation (mac80211) did not properly authenticate Tunneled Direct Link Setup (TDLS) messages.
A nearby attacker could use this for denial of service (loss of wifi connectivity).

CVE-2019-9506

Daniele Antonioli, Nils Ole Tippenhauer, and Kasper Rasmussen discovered a weakness in the Bluetooth pairing protocols, dubbed the 'KNOB attack'. An attacker that is nearby during pairing could use this to weaken the encryption used between the paired devices, and then to eavesdrop on and/or spoof communication between them.

This update mitigates the attack by requiring a minimum encryption key length of 56 bits.

CVE-2019-14814, CVE-2019-14815, CVE-2019-14816

Multiple bugs were discovered in the mwifiex wifi driver, which could lead to heap buffer overflows. A local user permitted to configure a device handled by this driver could probably use this for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-14821

Matt Delco reported a race condition in KVM's coalesced MMIO facility, which could lead to out-of-bounds access in the kernel. A local attacker permitted to access /dev/kvm could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-14835

Peter Pi of Tencent Blade Team discovered a missing bounds check in vhost_net, the network back-end driver for KVM hosts, leading to a buffer overflow when the host begins live migration of a VM. An attacker in control of a VM could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation on the host.

CVE-2019-15117

Hui Peng and Mathias Payer reported a missing bounds check in the usb-audio driver's descriptor parsing code, leading to a buffer over-read. An attacker able to add USB devices could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (crash).

CVE-2019-15118

Hui Peng and Mathias Payer reported unbounded recursion in the usb-audio driver's descriptor parsing code, leading to a stack overflow. An attacker able to add USB devices could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-15211

The syzkaller tool found a bug in the radio-raremono driver that could lead to a use-after-free. An attacker able to add and remove USB devices could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-15212

The syzkaller tool found that the rio500 driver does not work correctly if more than one device is bound to it. An attacker able to add USB devices could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-15215

The syzkaller tool found a bug in the cpia2_usb driver that leads to a use-after-free. An attacker able to add and remove USB devices could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-15218

The syzkaller tool found that the smsusb driver did not validate that USB devices have the expected endpoints, potentially leading to a NULL pointer dereference. An attacker able to add USB devices could use this to cause a denial of service (BUG/oops).

CVE-2019-15219

The syzkaller tool found that a device initialisation error in the sisusbvga driver could lead to a NULL pointer dereference. An attacker able to add USB devices could use this to cause a denial of service (BUG/oops).

CVE-2019-15220

The syzkaller tool found a race condition in the p54usb driver which could lead to a use-after-free. An attacker able to add and remove USB devices could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-15221

The syzkaller tool found that the line6 driver did not validate USB devices' maximum packet sizes, which could lead to a heap buffer overrun. An attacker able to add USB devices could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-15292

The Hulk Robot tool found missing error checks in the Appletalk protocol implementation, which could lead to a use-after-free. The security impact of this is unclear.

CVE-2019-15807

Jian Luo reported that the Serial Attached SCSI library (libsas) did not correctly handle failure to discover devices beyond a SAS expander. This could lead to a resource leak and crash (BUG). The security impact of this is unclear.

CVE-2019-15917

The syzkaller tool found a race condition in code supporting UART-attached Bluetooth adapters, which could lead to a use- after-free. A local user with access to a pty device or other suitable tty device could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-15926

It was found that the ath6kl wifi driver did not consistently validate traffic class numbers in received control packets, leading to out-of-bounds memory accesses. A nearby attacker on the same wifi network could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 3.16.74-1.

The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details.

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

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 mentions the additional non-security changes and notes the need to install new binary packages.

CVE-2019-0136

It was discovered that the wifi soft-MAC implementation (mac80211) did not properly authenticate Tunneled Direct Link Setup (TDLS) messages.
A nearby attacker could use this for denial of service (loss of wifi connectivity).

CVE-2019-9506

Daniele Antonioli, Nils Ole Tippenhauer, and Kasper Rasmussen discovered a weakness in the Bluetooth pairing protocols, dubbed the 'KNOB attack'. An attacker that is nearby during pairing could use this to weaken the encryption used between the paired devices, and then to eavesdrop on and/or spoof communication between them.

This update mitigates the attack by requiring a minimum encryption key length of 56 bits.

CVE-2019-11487

Jann Horn discovered that the FUSE (Filesystem-in-Userspace) facility could be used to cause integer overflow in page reference counts, leading to a use-after-free. On a system with sufficient physical memory, a local user permitted to create arbitrary FUSE mounts could use this for privilege escalation.

By default, unprivileged users can only mount FUSE filesystems through fusermount, which limits the number of mounts created and should completely mitigate the issue.

CVE-2019-15211

The syzkaller tool found a bug in the radio-raremono driver that could lead to a use-after-free. An attacker able to add and remove USB devices could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-15212

The syzkaller tool found that the rio500 driver does not work correctly if more than one device is bound to it. An attacker able to add USB devices could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-15215

The syzkaller tool found a bug in the cpia2_usb driver that leads to a use-after-free. An attacker able to add and remove USB devices could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-15216

The syzkaller tool found a bug in the yurex driver that leads to a use-after-free. An attacker able to add and remove USB devices could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-15218

The syzkaller tool found that the smsusb driver did not validate that USB devices have the expected endpoints, potentially leading to a NULL pointer dereference. An attacker able to add USB devices could use this to cause a denial of service (BUG/oops).

CVE-2019-15219

The syzkaller tool found that a device initialisation error in the sisusbvga driver could lead to a NULL pointer dereference. An attacker able to add USB devices could use this to cause a denial of service (BUG/oops).

CVE-2019-15220

The syzkaller tool found a race condition in the p54usb driver which could lead to a use-after-free. An attacker able to add and remove USB devices could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-15221

The syzkaller tool found that the line6 driver did not validate USB devices' maximum packet sizes, which could lead to a heap buffer overrun. An attacker able to add USB devices could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-15292

The Hulk Robot tool found missing error checks in the Appletalk protocol implementation, which could lead to a use-after-free. The security impact of this is unclear.

CVE-2019-15538

Benjamin Moody reported that operations on XFS hung after a chgrp command failed due to a disk quota. A local user on a system using XFS and disk quotas could use this for denial of service.

CVE-2019-15666

The Hulk Robot tool found an incorrect range check in the network transformation (xfrm) layer, leading to out-of-bounds memory accesses.
A local user with CAP_NET_ADMIN capability (in any user namespace) could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2019-15807

Jian Luo reported that the Serial Attached SCSI library (libsas) did not correctly handle failure to discover devices beyond a SAS expander. This could lead to a resource leak and crash (BUG). The security impact of this is unclear.

CVE-2019-15924

The Hulk Robot tool found a missing error check in the fm10k Ethernet driver, which could lead to a NULL pointer dereference and crash (BUG/oops). The security impact of this is unclear.

CVE-2019-15926

It was found that the ath6kl wifi driver did not consistently validate traffic class numbers in received control packets, leading to out-of-bounds memory accesses. A nearby attacker on the same wifi network could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 4.9.189-3. This version also includes a fix for Debian bug #930904, and other fixes included in upstream stable updates.

We recommend that you upgrade your linux-4.9 and linux-latest-4.9 packages. You will need to use 'apt-get upgrade --with-new-pkgs' or 'apt upgrade' as the binary package names have changed.

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 LTS / 18.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-4118-1 advisory.

  - The alarm_timer_nsleep function in kernel/time/alarmtimer.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3 has an     integer overflow via a large relative timeout because ktime_add_safe is not used. (CVE-2018-13053)

  - An issue was discovered in fs/xfs/xfs_icache.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3. There is a NULL pointer     dereference and panic in lookup_slow() on a NULL inode->i_ops pointer when doing pathwalks on a corrupted     xfs image. This occurs because of a lack of proper validation that cached inodes are free during     allocation. (CVE-2018-13093)

  - An issue was discovered in fs/f2fs/super.c in the Linux kernel through 4.14. A denial of service (out-of-     bounds memory access and BUG) can occur upon encountering an abnormal bitmap size when mounting a crafted     f2fs image. (CVE-2018-13096)

  - An issue was discovered in fs/f2fs/super.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3. There is an out-of-bounds     read or a divide-by-zero error for an incorrect user_block_count in a corrupted f2fs image, leading to a     denial of service (BUG). (CVE-2018-13097)

  - An issue was discovered in fs/f2fs/inode.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3. A denial of service (slab     out-of-bounds read and BUG) can occur for a modified f2fs filesystem image in which FI_EXTRA_ATTR is set     in an inode. (CVE-2018-13098)

  - An issue was discovered in fs/f2fs/inline.c in the Linux kernel through 4.4. A denial of service (out-of-     bounds memory access and BUG) can occur for a modified f2fs filesystem image in which an inline inode     contains an invalid reserved blkaddr. (CVE-2018-13099)

  - An issue was discovered in fs/f2fs/super.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3, which does not properly     validate secs_per_zone in a corrupted f2fs image, as demonstrated by a divide-by-zero error.
    (CVE-2018-13100)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.10. There is an invalid pointer dereference in
    __del_reloc_root() in fs/btrfs/relocation.c when mounting a crafted btrfs image, related to removing reloc     rb_trees when reloc control has not been initialized. (CVE-2018-14609)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.10. There is out-of-bounds access in     write_extent_buffer() when mounting and operating a crafted btrfs image, because of a lack of verification     that each block group has a corresponding chunk at mount time, within btrfs_read_block_groups in     fs/btrfs/extent-tree.c. (CVE-2018-14610)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.10. There is a use-after-free in     try_merge_free_space() when mounting a crafted btrfs image, because of a lack of chunk type flag checks in     btrfs_check_chunk_valid in fs/btrfs/volumes.c. (CVE-2018-14611)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.10. There is an invalid pointer dereference in     btrfs_root_node() when mounting a crafted btrfs image, because of a lack of chunk block group mapping     validation in btrfs_read_block_groups in fs/btrfs/extent-tree.c, and a lack of empty-tree checks in     check_leaf in fs/btrfs/tree-checker.c. (CVE-2018-14612)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.10. There is an invalid pointer dereference in     io_ctl_map_page() when mounting and operating a crafted btrfs image, because of a lack of block group item     validation in check_leaf_item in fs/btrfs/tree-checker.c. (CVE-2018-14613)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.10. There is an out-of-bounds access in
    __remove_dirty_segment() in fs/f2fs/segment.c when mounting an f2fs image. (CVE-2018-14614)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.10. There is a buffer overflow in     truncate_inline_inode() in fs/f2fs/inline.c when umounting an f2fs image, because a length value may be     negative. (CVE-2018-14615)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.10. There is a NULL pointer dereference and panic     in hfsplus_lookup() in fs/hfsplus/dir.c 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-2018-14617)

  - A security flaw was found in the Linux kernel in a way that the cleancache subsystem clears an inode after     the final file truncation (removal). The new file created with the same inode may contain leftover pages     from cleancache and the old file data instead of the new one. (CVE-2018-16862)

  - The function hso_get_config_data in drivers/net/usb/hso.c in the Linux kernel through 4.19.8 reads if_num     from the USB device (as a u8) and uses it to index a small array, resulting in an object out-of-bounds     (OOB) read that potentially allows arbitrary read in the kernel address space. (CVE-2018-19985)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.19.9. The USB subsystem mishandles size checks during     the reading of an extra descriptor, related to __usb_get_extra_descriptor in drivers/usb/core/usb.c.
    (CVE-2018-20169)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.18.11. The ipddp_ioctl function in     drivers/net/appletalk/ipddp.c allows local users to obtain sensitive kernel address information by     leveraging CAP_NET_ADMIN to read the ipddp_route dev and next fields via an SIOCFINDIPDDPRT ioctl call.
    (CVE-2018-20511)

  - In the Linux kernel before 4.20.2, kernel/sched/fair.c mishandles leaf cfs_rq's, which allows attackers to     cause a denial of service (infinite loop in update_blocked_averages) or possibly have unspecified other     impact by inducing a high load. (CVE-2018-20784)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.18.7. In block/blk-core.c, there is an
    __blk_drain_queue() use-after-free because a certain error case is mishandled. (CVE-2018-20856)

  - Bluetooth firmware or operating system software drivers in macOS versions before 10.13, High Sierra and     iOS versions before 11.4, and Android versions before the 2018-06-05 patch may not sufficiently validate     elliptic curve parameters used to generate public keys during a Diffie-Hellman key exchange, which may     allow a remote attacker to obtain the encryption key used by the device. (CVE-2018-5383)

  - Insufficient access control in the Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi Software driver before version 21.10 may     allow an unauthenticated user to potentially enable denial of service via adjacent access. (CVE-2019-0136)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A heap based buffer overflow in mwifiex_uap_parse_tail_ies function     in drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/ie.c might lead to memory corruption and possibly other     consequences. (CVE-2019-10126)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth implementation of UART, all versions kernel 3.x.x before     4.18.0 and kernel 5.x.x. An attacker with local access and write permissions to the Bluetooth hardware     could use this flaw to issue a specially crafted ioctl function call and cause the system to crash.
    (CVE-2019-10207)

  - In the Linux kernel before 5.1.7, a device can be tracked by an attacker using the IP ID values the kernel     produces for connection-less protocols (e.g., UDP and ICMP). When such traffic is sent to multiple     destination IP addresses, it is possible to obtain hash collisions (of indices to the counter array) and     thereby obtain the hashing key (via enumeration). An attack may be conducted by hosting a crafted web page     that uses WebRTC or gQUIC to force UDP traffic to attacker-controlled IP addresses. (CVE-2019-10638)

  - The Linux kernel 4.x (starting from 4.1) and 5.x before 5.0.8 allows Information Exposure (partial kernel     address disclosure), leading to a KASLR bypass. Specifically, it is possible to extract the KASLR kernel     image offset using the IP ID values the kernel produces for connection-less protocols (e.g., UDP and     ICMP). When such traffic is sent to multiple destination IP addresses, it is possible to obtain hash     collisions (of indices to the counter array) and thereby obtain the hashing key (via enumeration). This     key contains enough bits from a kernel address (of a static variable) so when the key is extracted (via     enumeration), the offset of the kernel image is exposed. This attack can be carried out remotely, by the     attacker forcing the target device to send UDP or ICMP (or certain other) traffic to attacker-controlled     IP addresses. Forcing a server to send UDP traffic is trivial if the server is a DNS server. ICMP traffic     is trivial if the server answers ICMP Echo requests (ping). For client targets, if the target visits the     attacker's web page, then WebRTC or gQUIC can be used to force UDP traffic to attacker-controlled IP     addresses. NOTE: this attack against KASLR became viable in 4.1 because IP ID generation was changed to     have a dependency on an address associated with a network namespace. (CVE-2019-10639)

  - 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)

  - The Linux kernel before 5.1-rc5 allows page->_refcount reference count overflow, with resultant use-after-     free issues, if about 140 GiB of RAM exists. This is related to fs/fuse/dev.c, fs/pipe.c, fs/splice.c,     include/linux/mm.h, include/linux/pipe_fs_i.h, kernel/trace/trace.c, mm/gup.c, and mm/hugetlb.c. It can     occur with FUSE requests. (CVE-2019-11487)

  - The coredump implementation in the Linux kernel before 5.0.10 does not use locking or other mechanisms to     prevent vma layout or vma flags changes while it runs, which allows local users to obtain sensitive     information, cause a denial of service, or possibly have unspecified other impact by triggering a race     condition with mmget_not_zero or get_task_mm calls. This is related to fs/userfaultfd.c, mm/mmap.c,     fs/proc/task_mmu.c, and drivers/infiniband/core/uverbs_main.c. (CVE-2019-11599)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.0.7. A NULL pointer dereference can occur when     megasas_create_frame_pool() fails in megasas_alloc_cmds() in drivers/scsi/megaraid/megaraid_sas_base.c.
    This causes a Denial of Service, related to a use-after-free. (CVE-2019-11810)

  - An issue was discovered in rds_tcp_kill_sock in net/rds/tcp.c in the Linux kernel before 5.0.8. There is a     race condition leading to a use-after-free, related to net namespace cleanup. (CVE-2019-11815)

  - fs/ext4/extents.c in the Linux kernel through 5.1.2 does not zero out the unused memory region in the     extent tree block, which might allow local users to obtain sensitive information by reading uninitialized     data in the filesystem. (CVE-2019-11833)

  - The do_hidp_sock_ioctl function in net/bluetooth/hidp/sock.c in the Linux kernel before 5.0.15 allows a     local user to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a HIDPCONNADD command,     because a name field may not end with a '\0' character. (CVE-2019-11884)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.20.15. The nfc_llcp_build_tlv function in     net/nfc/llcp_commands.c may return NULL. If the caller does not check for this, it will trigger a NULL     pointer dereference. This will cause denial of service. This affects nfc_llcp_build_gb in     net/nfc/llcp_core.c. (CVE-2019-12818)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.0. The function __mdiobus_register() in     drivers/net/phy/mdio_bus.c calls put_device(), which will trigger a fixed_mdio_bus_init use-after-free.
    This will cause a denial of service. (CVE-2019-12819)

  - A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability in the function nfc_genl_deactivate_target() in net/nfc/netlink.c     in the Linux kernel before 5.1.13 can be triggered by a malicious user-mode program that omits certain NFC     attributes, leading to denial of service. (CVE-2019-12984)

  - In arch/x86/lib/insn-eval.c in the Linux kernel before 5.1.9, there is a use-after-free for access to an     LDT entry because of a race condition between modify_ldt() and a #BR exception for an MPX bounds     violation. (CVE-2019-13233)

  - In the Linux kernel before 5.1.17, ptrace_link in kernel/ptrace.c mishandles the recording of the     credentials of a process that wants to create a ptrace relationship, which allows local users to obtain     root access by leveraging certain scenarios with a parent-child process relationship, where a parent drops     privileges and calls execve (potentially allowing control by an attacker). One contributing factor is an     object lifetime issue (which can also cause a panic). Another contributing factor is incorrect marking of     a ptrace relationship as privileged, which is exploitable through (for example) Polkit's pkexec helper     with PTRACE_TRACEME. NOTE: SELinux deny_ptrace might be a usable workaround in some environments.
    (CVE-2019-13272)

  - In parse_hid_report_descriptor in drivers/input/tablet/gtco.c in the Linux kernel through 5.2.1, a     malicious USB device can send an HID report that triggers an out-of-bounds write during generation of     debugging messages. (CVE-2019-13631)

  - In the Linux kernel before 5.2.3, set_geometry in drivers/block/floppy.c does not validate the sect and     head fields, as demonstrated by an integer overflow and out-of-bounds read. It can be triggered by an     unprivileged local user when a floppy disk has been inserted. NOTE: QEMU creates the floppy device by     default. (CVE-2019-14283)

  - In the Linux kernel before 5.2.3, drivers/block/floppy.c allows a denial of service by setup_format_params     division-by-zero. Two consecutive ioctls can trigger the bug: the first one should set the drive geometry     with .sect and .rate values that make F_SECT_PER_TRACK be zero. Next, the floppy format operation should     be called. It can be triggered by an unprivileged local user even when a floppy disk has not been     inserted. NOTE: QEMU creates the floppy device by default. (CVE-2019-14284)

  - In the Linux kernel before 4.16.4, a double-locking error in drivers/usb/dwc3/gadget.c may potentially     cause a deadlock with f_hid. (CVE-2019-14763)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.2.6. There is a use-after-free caused by a malicious     USB device in the drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c driver because drivers/media/radio/radio-raremono.c     does not properly allocate memory. (CVE-2019-15211)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.1.8. There is a double-free caused by a malicious USB     device in the drivers/usb/misc/rio500.c driver. (CVE-2019-15212)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.0.10. There is a use-after-free in the sound     subsystem because card disconnection causes certain data structures to be deleted too early. This is     related to sound/core/init.c and sound/core/info.c. (CVE-2019-15214)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.2.6. There is a use-after-free caused by a malicious     USB device in the drivers/media/usb/cpia2/cpia2_usb.c driver. (CVE-2019-15215)

  - An issue was discovered in can_can_gw_rcv in net/can/gw.c in the Linux kernel through 4.19.13. The CAN     frame modification rules allow bitwise logical operations that can be also applied to the can_dlc field.
    The privileged user root with CAP_NET_ADMIN can create a CAN frame modification rule that makes the data     length code a higher value than the available CAN frame data size. In combination with a configured     checksum calculation where the result is stored relatively to the end of the data (e.g. cgw_csum_xor_rel)     the tail of the skb (e.g. frag_list pointer in skb_shared_info) can be rewritten which finally can cause a     system crash. Because of a missing check, the CAN drivers may write arbitrary content beyond the data     registers in the CAN controller's I/O memory when processing can-gw manipulated outgoing frames.
    (CVE-2019-3701)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in the function hid_debug_events_read() in drivers/hid/hid-debug.c     file which may enter an infinite loop with certain parameters passed from a userspace. A local privileged     user (root) can cause a system lock up and a denial of service. Versions from v4.18 and newer are     vulnerable. (CVE-2019-3819)

  - A flaw that allowed an attacker to corrupt memory and possibly escalate privileges was found in the     mwifiex kernel module while connecting to a malicious wireless network. (CVE-2019-3846)

  - An infinite loop issue was found in the vhost_net kernel module in Linux Kernel up to and including     v5.1-rc6, while handling incoming packets in handle_rx(). It could occur if one end sends packets faster     than the other end can process them. A guest user, maybe remote one, could use this flaw to stall the     vhost_net kernel thread, resulting in a DoS scenario. (CVE-2019-3900)

  - The Bluetooth BR/EDR specification up to and including version 5.1 permits sufficiently low encryption key     length and does not prevent an attacker from influencing the key length negotiation. This allows practical     brute-force attacks (aka KNOB) that can decrypt traffic and inject arbitrary ciphertext without the     victim noticing. (CVE-2019-9506)

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

It could occur if one end sends packets faster     than the other end can process them. A guest user, maybe remote one, could use this flaw to stall the     vhost_net kernel thread, resulting in a DoS scenario. (CVE-2019-3900)

  - The Bluetooth BR/EDR specification up to and including version 5.1 permits sufficiently low encryption key     length and does not prevent an attacker from influencing the key length negotiation. This allows practical     brute-force attacks (aka KNOB) that can decrypt traffic and inject arbitrary ciphertext without the     victim noticing. (CVE-2019-9506)

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