  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tls: fix race between async notify and     socket close The submitting thread (one which called recvmsg/sendmsg) may exit as soon as the async crypto     handler calls complete() so any code past that point risks touching already freed data. Try to avoid the     locking and extra flags altogether. Have the main thread hold an extra reference, this way we can depend     solely on the atomic ref counter for synchronization. Don't futz with reiniting the completion, either, we     are now tightly controlling when completion fires. (CVE-2024-26583)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: tls: handle backlogging of crypto     requests Since we're setting the CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_BACKLOG flag on our requests to the crypto API,     crypto_aead_{encrypt,decrypt} can return -EBUSY instead of -EINPROGRESS in valid situations. For example,     when the cryptd queue for AESNI is full (easy to trigger with an artificially low     cryptd.cryptd_max_cpu_qlen), requests will be enqueued to the backlog but still processed. In that case,     the async callback will also be called twice: first with err == -EINPROGRESS, which it seems we can just     ignore, then with err == 0. Compared to Sabrina's original patch this version uses the new     tls_*crypt_async_wait() helpers and converts the EBUSY to EINPROGRESS to avoid having to modify all the     error handling paths. The handling is identical. (CVE-2024-26584)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mlxsw: spectrum_acl_tcam: Fix stack     corruption When tc filters are first added to a net device, the corresponding local port gets bound to an     ACL group in the device. The group contains a list of ACLs. In turn, each ACL points to a different TCAM     region where the filters are stored. During forwarding, the ACLs are sequentially evaluated until a match     is found. One reason to place filters in different regions is when they are added with decreasing     priorities and in an alternating order so that two consecutive filters can never fit in the same region     because of their key usage. In Spectrum-2 and newer ASICs the firmware started to report that the maximum     number of ACLs in a group is more than 16, but the layout of the register that configures ACL groups     (PAGT) was not updated to account for that. It is therefore possible to hit stack corruption [1] in the     rare case where more than 16 ACLs in a group are required. Fix by limiting the maximum ACL group size to     the minimum between what the firmware reports and the maximum ACLs that fit in the PAGT register. Add a     test case to make sure the machine does not crash when this condition is hit.

The remote Ubuntu 22.04 LTS / 23.10 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6724-2 advisory.

  - Transmit requests in Xen's virtual network protocol can consist of multiple parts. While not really     useful, except for the initial part any of them may be of zero length, i.e. carry no data at all. Besides     a certain initial portion of the to be transferred data, these parts are directly translated into what     Linux calls SKB fragments. Such converted request parts can, when for a particular SKB they are all of     length zero, lead to a de-reference of NULL in core networking code. (CVE-2023-46838)

  - sec_attest_info in drivers/accel/habanalabs/common/habanalabs_ioctl.c in the Linux kernel through 6.6.5     allows an information leak to user space because info->pad0 is not initialized. (CVE-2023-50431)

  - dm_table_create in drivers/md/dm-table.c in the Linux kernel through 6.7.4 can attempt to (in     alloc_targets) allocate more than INT_MAX bytes, and crash, because of a missing check for struct     dm_ioctl.target_count. (CVE-2023-52429)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: explicitly null-terminate the     xattr list When setting an xattr, explicitly null-terminate the xattr list. This eliminates the fragile     assumption that the unused xattr space is always zeroed. (CVE-2023-52436)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: binder: fix use-after-free in     shinker's callback The mmap read lock is used during the shrinker's callback, which means that using     alloc->vma pointer isn't safe as it can race with munmap(). As of commit dd2283f2605e (mm: mmap: zap     pages with read mmap_sem in munmap) the mmap lock is downgraded after the vma has been isolated. I was     able to reproduce this issue by manually adding some delays and triggering page reclaiming through the     shrinker's debug sysfs. The following KASAN report confirms the UAF:

    Note that this option has better performance than upgrading to a mmap write lock which would increase     contention. Plus, mmap_write_trylock() has been recently removed anyway. (CVE-2023-52438)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: uio: Fix use-after-free in uio_open     core-1 core-2 ------------------------------------------------------- uio_unregister_device uio_open idev     = idr_find() device_unregister(&idev->dev) put_device(&idev->dev) uio_device_release     get_device(&idev->dev) kfree(idev) uio_free_minor(minor) uio_release put_device(&idev->dev) kfree(idev)
    ------------------------------------------------------- In the core-1 uio_unregister_device(), the     device_unregister will kfree idev when the idev->dev kobject ref is 1. But after core-1 device_unregister,     put_device and before doing kfree, the core-2 may get_device. Then: 1. After core-1 kfree idev, the core-2     will do use-after-free for idev. 2. When core-2 do uio_release and put_device, the idev will be double     freed. To address this issue, we can get idev atomic & inc idev reference with minor_lock.
    (CVE-2023-52439)

  - An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in smb2_dump_detail in fs/smb/client/smb2ops.c in the Linux     Kernel. This issue could allow a local attacker to crash the system or leak internal kernel information.
    (CVE-2023-6610)

  - An issue was discovered in ksmbd in the Linux kernel before 6.6.10. smb2_get_data_area_len in     fs/smb/server/smb2misc.c can cause an smb_strndup_from_utf16 out-of-bounds access because the relationship     between Name data and CreateContexts data is mishandled. (CVE-2024-22705)

  - In btrfs_get_root_ref in fs/btrfs/disk-io.c in the Linux kernel through 6.7.1, there can be an assertion     failure and crash because a subvolume can be read out too soon after its root item is inserted upon     subvolume creation. (CVE-2024-23850)

  - copy_params in drivers/md/dm-ioctl.c in the Linux kernel through 6.7.1 can attempt to allocate more than     INT_MAX bytes, and crash, because of a missing param_kernel->data_size check. This is related to     ctl_ioctl. (CVE-2024-23851)

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

The remote Ubuntu 22.04 LTS / 23.10 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6724-1 advisory.

  - Transmit requests in Xen's virtual network protocol can consist of multiple parts. While not really     useful, except for the initial part any of them may be of zero length, i.e. carry no data at all. Besides     a certain initial portion of the to be transferred data, these parts are directly translated into what     Linux calls SKB fragments. Such converted request parts can, when for a particular SKB they are all of     length zero, lead to a de-reference of NULL in core networking code. (CVE-2023-46838)

  - sec_attest_info in drivers/accel/habanalabs/common/habanalabs_ioctl.c in the Linux kernel through 6.6.5     allows an information leak to user space because info->pad0 is not initialized. (CVE-2023-50431)

  - dm_table_create in drivers/md/dm-table.c in the Linux kernel through 6.7.4 can attempt to (in     alloc_targets) allocate more than INT_MAX bytes, and crash, because of a missing check for struct     dm_ioctl.target_count. (CVE-2023-52429)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb: client: fix potential OOBs in     smb2_parse_contexts() Validate offsets and lengths before dereferencing create contexts in     smb2_parse_contexts().

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: explicitly null-terminate the     xattr list When setting an xattr, explicitly null-terminate the xattr list. This eliminates the fragile     assumption that the unused xattr space is always zeroed. (CVE-2023-52436)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: binder: fix use-after-free in     shinker's callback The mmap read lock is used during the shrinker's callback, which means that using     alloc->vma pointer isn't safe as it can race with munmap(). As of commit dd2283f2605e (mm: mmap: zap     pages with read mmap_sem in munmap) the mmap lock is downgraded after the vma has been isolated. I was     able to reproduce this issue by manually adding some delays and triggering page reclaiming through the     shrinker's debug sysfs. The following KASAN report confirms the UAF:

    Note that this option has better performance than upgrading to a mmap write lock which would increase     contention. Plus, mmap_write_trylock() has been recently removed anyway. (CVE-2023-52438)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: uio: Fix use-after-free in uio_open     core-1 core-2 ------------------------------------------------------- uio_unregister_device uio_open idev     = idr_find() device_unregister(&idev->dev) put_device(&idev->dev) uio_device_release     get_device(&idev->dev) kfree(idev) uio_free_minor(minor) uio_release put_device(&idev->dev) kfree(idev)
    ------------------------------------------------------- In the core-1 uio_unregister_device(), the     device_unregister will kfree idev when the idev->dev kobject ref is 1. But after core-1 device_unregister,     put_device and before doing kfree, the core-2 may get_device. Then: 1. After core-1 kfree idev, the core-2     will do use-after-free for idev. 2. When core-2 do uio_release and put_device, the idev will be double     freed. To address this issue, we can get idev atomic & inc idev reference with minor_lock.

  - An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in smb2_dump_detail in fs/smb/client/smb2ops.c in the Linux     Kernel. This issue could allow a local attacker to crash the system or leak internal kernel information.
    (CVE-2023-6610)

  - An issue was discovered in ksmbd in the Linux kernel before 6.6.10. smb2_get_data_area_len in     fs/smb/server/smb2misc.c can cause an smb_strndup_from_utf16 out-of-bounds access because the relationship     between Name data and CreateContexts data is mishandled. (CVE-2024-22705)

  - In btrfs_get_root_ref in fs/btrfs/disk-io.c in the Linux kernel through 6.7.1, there can be an assertion     failure and crash because a subvolume can be read out too soon after its root item is inserted upon     subvolume creation. (CVE-2024-23850)

  - copy_params in drivers/md/dm-ioctl.c in the Linux kernel through 6.7.1 can attempt to allocate more than     INT_MAX bytes, and crash, because of a missing param_kernel->data_size check. This is related to     ctl_ioctl. (CVE-2024-23851)

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

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: x86/fpu: Stop relying on userspace for     info to fault in xsave buffer Before this change, the expected size of the user space buffer was taken     from fx_sw->xstate_size. fx_sw->xstate_size can be changed from user-space, so it is possible construct a     sigreturn frame where: * fx_sw->xstate_size is smaller than the size required by valid bits in     fx_sw->xfeatures. * user-space unmaps parts of the sigrame fpu buffer so that not all of the buffer     required by xrstor is accessible. In this case, xrstor tries to restore and accesses the unmapped area     which results in a fault. But fault_in_readable succeeds because buf + fx_sw->xstate_size is within the     still mapped area, so it goes back and tries xrstor again. It will spin in this loop forever. Instead,     fault in the maximum size which can be touched by XRSTOR (taken from fpstate->user_size). [ dhansen: tweak     subject / changelog ] (CVE-2024-26603)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: prevent mss overflow in     skb_segment() Once again syzbot is able to crash the kernel in skb_segment() [1] GSO_BY_FRAGS is a     forbidden value, but unfortunately the following computation in skb_segment() can reach it quite easily :
    mss = mss * partial_segs; 65535 = 3 * 5 * 17 * 257, so many initial values of mss can lead to a bad final     result. Make sure to limit segmentation so that the new mss value is smaller than GSO_BY_FRAGS.

  - A vulnerability was found in vhost_new_msg in drivers/vhost/vhost.c in the Linux kernel, which 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 issue can allow local privileged users to read some kernel     memory contents when reading from the /dev/vhost-net device file. (CVE-2024-0340)

  - A vulnerability was reported in the Open vSwitch sub-component in the Linux Kernel. The flaw occurs when a     recursive operation of code push recursively calls into the code block. The OVS module does not validate     the stack depth, pushing too many frames and causing a stack overflow. As a result, this can lead to a     crash or other related issues. (CVE-2024-1151)

  - A Speculative Race Condition (SRC) vulnerability that impacts modern CPU architectures supporting     speculative execution (related to Spectre V1) has been disclosed. An unauthenticated attacker can exploit     this vulnerability to disclose arbitrary data from the CPU using race conditions to access the speculative     executable code paths. (CVE-2024-2193)

  - In btrfs_get_root_ref in fs/btrfs/disk-io.c in the Linux kernel through 6.7.1, there can be an assertion     failure and crash because a subvolume can be read out too soon after its root item is inserted upon     subvolume creation. (CVE-2024-23850)

  - copy_params in drivers/md/dm-ioctl.c in the Linux kernel through 6.7.1 can attempt to allocate more than     INT_MAX bytes, and crash, because of a missing param_kernel->data_size check. This is related to     ctl_ioctl. (CVE-2024-23851)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: skip end     interval element from gc rbtree lazy gc on insert might collect an end interval element that has been just     added in this transactions, skip end interval elements that are not yet active. (CVE-2024-26581)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: tls: fix use-after-free with     partial reads and async decrypt tls_decrypt_sg doesn't take a reference on the pages from clear_skb, so     the put_page() in tls_decrypt_done releases them, and we trigger a use-after-free in process_rx_list when     we try to read from the partially-read skb. (CVE-2024-26582)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tls: fix race between async notify and     socket close The submitting thread (one which called recvmsg/sendmsg) may exit as soon as the async crypto     handler calls complete() so any code past that point risks touching already freed data. Try to avoid the     locking and extra flags altogether. Have the main thread hold an extra reference, this way we can depend     solely on the atomic ref counter for synchronization. Don't futz with reiniting the completion, either, we     are now tightly controlling when completion fires. (CVE-2024-26583)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: regenerate buddy after block     freeing failed if under fc replay This mostly reverts commit 6bd97bf273bd (ext4: remove redundant     mb_regenerate_buddy()) and reintroduces mb_regenerate_buddy(). Based on code in mb_free_blocks(), fast     commit replay can end up marking as free blocks that are already marked as such. This causes corruption of     the buddy bitmap so we need to regenerate it in that case. (CVE-2024-26601)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sched/membarrier: reduce the ability     to hammer on sys_membarrier On some systems, sys_membarrier can be very expensive, causing overall     slowdowns for everything. So put a lock on the path in order to serialize the accesses to prevent the     ability for this to be called at too high of a frequency and saturate the machine. (CVE-2024-26602)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: x86/fpu: Stop relying on userspace for     info to fault in xsave buffer Before this change, the expected size of the user space buffer was taken     from fx_sw->xstate_size. fx_sw->xstate_size can be changed from user-space, so it is possible construct a     sigreturn frame where: * fx_sw->xstate_size is smaller than the size required by valid bits in     fx_sw->xfeatures. * user-space unmaps parts of the sigrame fpu buffer so that not all of the buffer     required by xrstor is accessible. In this case, xrstor tries to restore and accesses the unmapped area     which results in a fault. But fault_in_readable succeeds because buf + fx_sw->xstate_size is within the     still mapped area, so it goes back and tries xrstor again. It will spin in this loop forever. Instead,     fault in the maximum size which can be touched by XRSTOR (taken from fpstate->user_size). [ dhansen: tweak     subject / changelog ] (CVE-2024-26603)
