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

  - In bpf_skb_change_head of filter.c, there is a possible out of bounds read due to a use after free. This     could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User interaction is     not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android kernelAndroid ID: A-154177719References:
    Upstream kernel (CVE-2021-0941)

    (CVE-2021-20321)

  - Improper input validation in the Intel(R) Ethernet ixgbe driver for Linux before version 3.17.3 may allow     an authenticated user to potentially enable denial of service via local access. (CVE-2021-33098)

  - In __configfs_open_file of file.c, there is a possible use-after-free due to improper locking.

User     interaction is not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android kernelAndroid ID:
    A-174049066References: Upstream kernel (CVE-2021-39656)

  - A memory leak flaw in the Linux kernel's hugetlbfs memory usage was found in the way the user maps some     regions of memory twice using shmget() which are aligned to PUD alignment with the fault of some of the     memory pages. A local user could use this flaw to get unauthorized access to some data. (CVE-2021-4002)

  - A read-after-free memory flaw was found in the Linux kernel's garbage collection for Unix domain socket     file handlers in the way users call close() and fget() simultaneously and can potentially trigger a race     condition. This flaw allows a local user to crash the system or escalate their privileges on the system.
    This flaw affects Linux kernel versions prior to 5.16-rc4. (CVE-2021-4083)

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

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

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.2.13. nbd_genl_status in drivers/block/nbd.c does     not check the nla_nest_start_noflag return value. (CVE-2019-16089)

  - Use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel exploitable by a local attacker due to reuse of a DCCP     socket with an attached dccps_hc_tx_ccid object as a listener after being released. Fixed in Ubuntu Linux     kernel 5.4.0-51.56, 5.3.0-68.63, 4.15.0-121.123, 4.4.0-193.224, 3.13.0.182.191 and 3.2.0-149.196.
    (CVE-2020-16119)

  - In unix_scm_to_skb of af_unix.c, there is a possible use after free bug due to a race condition. This     could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User interaction is     not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android kernelAndroid ID: A-196926917References:

    (CVE-2021-20321)

  - A flaw in the processing of received ICMP errors (ICMP fragment needed and ICMP redirect) in the Linux     kernel functionality was found to allow the ability to quickly scan open UDP ports. This flaw allows an     off-path remote user to effectively bypass the source port UDP randomization. The highest threat from this     vulnerability is to confidentiality and possibly integrity, because software that relies on UDP source     port randomization are indirectly affected as well. (CVE-2021-20322)

  - Improper input validation in the Intel(R) Ethernet ixgbe driver for Linux before version 3.17.3 may allow     an authenticated user to potentially enable denial of service via local access. (CVE-2021-33098)

  - A memory leak flaw was found in the Linux kernel in the ccp_run_aes_gcm_cmd() function in     drivers/crypto/ccp/ccp-ops.c, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption).
    This vulnerability is similar with the older CVE-2019-18808. (CVE-2021-3744)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth subsystem in the way user calls connect to     the socket and disconnect simultaneously due to a race condition. This flaw allows a user to crash the     system or escalate their privileges. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality,     integrity, as well as system availability. (CVE-2021-3752)

  - arch/mips/net/bpf_jit.c in the Linux kernel before 5.4.10 can generate undesirable machine code when     transforming unprivileged cBPF programs, allowing execution of arbitrary code within the kernel context.
    This occurs because conditional branches can exceed the 128 KB limit of the MIPS architecture.
    (CVE-2021-38300)

  - In __configfs_open_file of file.c, there is a possible use-after-free due to improper locking.

    This flaw affects Linux kernel versions prior to 5.16-rc4. (CVE-2021-4083)

  - prealloc_elems_and_freelist in kernel/bpf/stackmap.c in the Linux kernel before 5.14.12 allows     unprivileged users to trigger an eBPF multiplication integer overflow with a resultant out-of-bounds     write. (CVE-2021-41864)

  - A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the Linux kernel FireDTV media card driver, where the user     calls the CA_SEND_MSG ioctl. This flaw allows a local user of the host machine to crash the system or     escalate privileges on the system. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality,     integrity, as well as system availability. (CVE-2021-42739)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.14.15. There is an array-index-out-of-bounds flaw in     the detach_capi_ctr function in drivers/isdn/capi/kcapi.c. (CVE-2021-43389)

  - In the Linux kernel through 5.15.2, hw_atl_utils_fw_rpc_wait in     drivers/net/ethernet/aquantia/atlantic/hw_atl/hw_atl_utils.c allows an attacker (who can introduce a     crafted device) to trigger an out-of-bounds write via a crafted length value. (CVE-2021-43975)
