In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drivers/amd/pm: fix a use-after-free in kv_parse_power_table When ps allocated by kzalloc equals to NULL, kv_parse_power_table frees adev->pm.dpm.ps that allocated before. However, after the control flow goes through the following call chains: kv_parse_power_table |-> kv_dpm_init |-> kv_dpm_sw_init |-> kv_dpm_fini The adev->pm.dpm.ps is used in the for loop of kv_dpm_fini after its first free in kv_parse_power_table and causes a use-after-free bug.

The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 5.4.268-181.368. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.4-2024-059 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)

  - 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)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gfs2: Fix kernel NULL pointer     dereference in gfs2_rgrp_dump Syzkaller has reported a NULL pointer dereference when accessing rgd->rd_rgl     in gfs2_rgrp_dump(). This can happen when creating rgd->rd_gl fails in read_rindex_entry(). Add a NULL     pointer check in gfs2_rgrp_dump() to prevent that. (CVE-2023-52448)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drivers/amd/pm: fix a use-after-free     in kv_parse_power_table When ps allocated by kzalloc equals to NULL, kv_parse_power_table frees     adev->pm.dpm.ps that allocated before. However, after the control flow goes through the following call     chains: kv_parse_power_table |-> kv_dpm_init |-> kv_dpm_sw_init |-> kv_dpm_fini The adev->pm.dpm.ps is     used in the for loop of kv_dpm_fini after its first free in kv_parse_power_table and causes a use-after-     free bug. (CVE-2023-52469)

  - An out-of-bounds access vulnerability involving netfilter was reported and fixed as: f1082dd31fe4     (netfilter: nf_tables: Reject tables of unsupported family); While creating a new netfilter table, lack of     a safeguard against invalid nf_tables family (pf) values within `nf_tables_newtable` function enables an     attacker to achieve out-of-bounds access. (CVE-2023-6040)

  - A race condition was found in the GSM 0710 tty multiplexor in the Linux kernel. This issue occurs when two     threads execute the GSMIOC_SETCONF ioctl on the same tty file descriptor with the gsm line discipline     enabled, and can lead to a use-after-free problem on a struct gsm_dlci while restarting the gsm mux. This     could allow a local unprivileged user to escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2023-6546)

  - A Null pointer dereference problem was found in ida_free in lib/idr.c in the Linux Kernel. This issue may     allow an attacker using this library to cause a denial of service problem due to a missing check at a     function return. (CVE-2023-6915)

  - An out-of-bounds memory read flaw was found in receive_encrypted_standard in fs/smb/client/smb2ops.c in     the SMB Client sub-component in the Linux Kernel. This issue occurs due to integer underflow on the memcpy     length, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2024-0565)

  - A flaw was found in the Netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel. The issue is in the nft_byteorder_eval()     function, where the code iterates through a loop and writes to the `dst` array. On each iteration, 8 bytes     are written, but `dst` is an array of u32, so each element only has space for 4 bytes. That means every     iteration overwrites part of the previous element corrupting this array of u32. This flaw allows a local     user to cause a denial of service or potentially break NetFilter functionality. (CVE-2024-0607)

  - An out-of-bounds memory write flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Transport Layer Security functionality     in how a user calls a function splice with a ktls socket as the destination. This flaw allows a local user     to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2024-0646)

  - In rds_recv_track_latency in net/rds/af_rds.c in the Linux kernel through 6.7.1, there is an off-by-one     error for an RDS_MSG_RX_DGRAM_TRACE_MAX comparison, resulting in out-of-bounds access. (CVE-2024-23849)

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

The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 5.10.209-198.812. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.10-2024-048 advisory.

    ------------------------------------------------------- In the core-1 uio_unregister_device(), the     device_unregister will kfree idev when the idev->dev kobject ref is 1.

This can happen when creating rgd->rd_gl fails in read_rindex_entry(). Add a NULL     pointer check in gfs2_rgrp_dump() to prevent that. (CVE-2023-52448)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: fix check for attempt to corrupt     spilled pointer When register is spilled onto a stack as a 1/2/4-byte register, we set     slot_type[BPF_REG_SIZE - 1] (plus potentially few more below it, depending on actual spill size). So to     check if some stack slot has spilled register we need to consult slot_type[7], not slot_type[0]. To avoid     the need to remember and double-check this in the future, just use is_spilled_reg() helper.
    (CVE-2023-52462)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: efivarfs: force RO when remounting if     SetVariable is not supported If SetVariable at runtime is not supported by the firmware we never assign a     callback for that function. At the same time mount the efivarfs as RO so no one can call that. However, we     never check the permission flags when someone remounts the filesystem as RW. As a result this leads to a     crash looking like this: $ mount -o remount,rw /sys/firmware/efi/efivars $ efi-updatevar -f PK.auth PK [     303.279166] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000000 [     303.280482] Mem abort info: [ 303.280854] ESR = 0x0000000086000004 [ 303.281338] EC = 0x21: IABT (current     EL), IL = 32 bits [ 303.282016] SET = 0, FnV = 0 [ 303.282414] EA = 0, S1PTW = 0 [ 303.282821] FSC = 0x04:

  - 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.
