An update of the linux package has been released.

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

  - When sending malicous data to kernel by ioctl cmd FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO,kernel will write memory out of     bounds. (CVE-2021-33655)

  - In rcu_cblist_dequeue of rcu_segcblist.c, there is a possible use-after-free due to improper locking. This     could lead to local escalation of privilege in the kernel with System execution privileges needed. User     interaction is not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android kernelAndroid ID:
    A-222091980References: Upstream kernel (CVE-2022-20153)

  - Product: AndroidVersions: Android kernelAndroid ID: A-224546354References: Upstream kernel     (CVE-2022-20368)

  - In v4l2_m2m_querybuf of v4l2-mem2mem.c, there is a possible out of bounds write due to improper input     validation. 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-223375145References: Upstream kernel (CVE-2022-20369)

Some operations are missing some types,     which can lead to incorrect reference counts which can then lead to a double free. We recommend upgrading     the kernel past commit df3f3bb5059d20ef094d6b2f0256c4bf4127a859 (CVE-2022-2327)

  - The Linux kernel was found vulnerable out of bounds memory access in the     drivers/video/fbdev/sm712fb.c:smtcfb_read() function. The vulnerability could result in local attackers     being able to crash the kernel. (CVE-2022-2380)

  - Dm-verity is used for extending root-of-trust to root filesystems. LoadPin builds on this property to     restrict module/firmware loads to just the trusted root filesystem. Device-mapper table reloads currently     allow users with root privileges to switch out the target with an equivalent dm-linear target and bypass     verification till reboot. This allows root to bypass LoadPin and can be used to load untrusted and     unverified kernel modules and firmware, which implies arbitrary kernel execution and persistence for     peripherals that do not verify firmware updates. We recommend upgrading past commit     4caae58406f8ceb741603eee460d79bacca9b1b5 (CVE-2022-2503)

  - An integer coercion error was found in the openvswitch kernel module. Given a sufficiently large number of     actions, while copying and reserving memory for a new action of a new flow, the reserve_sfa_size()     function does not return -EMSGSIZE as expected, potentially leading to an out-of-bounds write access. This     flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-2639)

  - An out-of-bounds memory access flaw was found in the Linux kernel Intel's iSMT SMBus host controller     driver in the way a user triggers the I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_DATA (with the ioctl I2C_SMBUS) with malicious input     data. This flaw allows a local user to crash the system. (CVE-2022-2873)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's driver for the ASIX AX88179_178A-based USB 2.0/3.0 Gigabit Ethernet     Devices. The vulnerability contains multiple out-of-bounds reads and possible out-of-bounds writes.
    (CVE-2022-2964)

  - The Linux kernel before 5.18.13 lacks a certain clear operation for the block starting symbol (.bss). This     allows Xen PV guest OS users to cause a denial of service or gain privileges. (CVE-2022-36123)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.18.14. xfrm_expand_policies in     net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c can cause a refcount to be dropped twice. (CVE-2022-36879)

  - nfqnl_mangle in net/netfilter/nfnetlink_queue.c in the Linux kernel through 5.18.14 allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) because, in the case of an nf_queue verdict with a one-byte     nfta_payload attribute, an skb_pull can encounter a negative skb->len. (CVE-2022-36946)

  - kernel: nf_tables cross-table potential use-after-free may lead to local privilege escalation     (CVE-2022-2586)

  - kernel: a use-after-free in cls_route filter implementation may lead to privilege escalation     (CVE-2022-2588)
