In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: add handling for RAID1C23/DUP to btrfs_reduce_alloc_profile Callers of `btrfs_reduce_alloc_profile` expect it to return exactly one allocation profile flag, and failing to do so may ultimately result in a WARN_ON and remount-ro when allocating new blocks, like the below transaction abort on 6.1. `btrfs_reduce_alloc_profile` has two ways of determining the profile, first it checks if a conversion balance is currently running and uses the profile we're converting to. If no balance is currently running, it returns the max-redundancy profile which at least one block in the selected block group has. This works by simply checking each known allocation profile bit in redundancy order. However, `btrfs_reduce_alloc_profile` has not been updated as new flags have been added - first with the `DUP` profile and later with the RAID1C34 profiles. Because of the way it checks, if we have blocks with different profiles and at least one is known, that profile will be selected. However, if none are known we may return a flag set with multiple allocation profiles set. This is currently only possible when a balance from one of the three unhandled profiles to another of the unhandled profiles is canceled after allocating at least one block using the new profile. In that case, a transaction abort like the below will occur and the filesystem will need to be mounted with -o skip_balance to get it mounted rw again (but the balance cannot be resumed without a similar abort).

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 5.10.192-182.736. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.10-2023-039 advisory.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    RDMA/cma: Ensure rdma_addr_cancel() happens before issuing more requests (CVE-2021-47391)

    A division-by-zero error on some AMD processors can potentially return speculative data resulting in loss     of confidentiality. (CVE-2023-20588)

    A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's netfilter subsystem in     net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c.

    Mishandled error handling with NFT_MSG_NEWRULE makes it possible to use a dangling pointer in the same     transaction causing a use-after-free vulnerability. This flaw allows a local attacker with user access to     cause a privilege escalation issue.

    We recommend upgrading past commit 1240eb93f0616b21c675416516ff3d74798fdc97. (CVE-2023-3390)

    The fix for XSA-423 added logic to Linux'es netback driver to deal witha frontend splitting a packet in a     way such that not all of the headerswould come in one piece.  Unfortunately the logic introduced     theredidn't account for the extreme case of the entire packet being splitinto as many pieces as permitted     by the protocol, yet still beingsmaller than the area that's specially dealt with to keep all     (possible)headers together.  Such an unusual packet would therefore trigger abuffer overrun in the driver.
    (CVE-2023-34319)

    A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's netfilter: nf_tables component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation.

    When nf_tables_delrule() is flushing table rules, it is not checked whether the chain is bound and the     chain's owner rule can also release the objects in certain circumstances.

    We recommend upgrading past commit 6eaf41e87a223ae6f8e7a28d6e78384ad7e407f8. (CVE-2023-3777)

    A flaw was found in the XFRM subsystem in the Linux kernel. The specific flaw exists within the processing     of state filters, which can result in a read past the end of an allocated buffer. This flaw allows a local     privileged (CAP_NET_ADMIN) attacker to trigger an out-of-bounds read, potentially leading to an     information disclosure. (CVE-2023-39194)

    An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in Netfilter Connection Tracking (conntrack) in the Linux     kernel. This flaw allows a remote user to disclose sensitive information via the DCCP protocol.
    (CVE-2023-39197)

    A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel's netfilter in the way a user triggers the     nft_pipapo_remove function with the element, without a NFT_SET_EXT_KEY_END. This issue could allow a local     user to crash the system or potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2023-4004)

    A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's netfilter: nf_tables component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation.

    On an error when building a nftables rule, deactivating immediate expressions in     nft_immediate_deactivate() can lead unbinding the chain and objects be deactivated but later used.

    We recommend upgrading past commit 0a771f7b266b02d262900c75f1e175c7fe76fec2. (CVE-2023-4015)

    A use-after-free flaw was found in net/sched/cls_fw.c in classifiers (cls_fw, cls_u32, and cls_route) in     the Linux Kernel. This flaw allows a local attacker to perform a local privilege escalation due to     incorrect handling of the existing filter, leading to a kernel information leak issue. (CVE-2023-4128)

    netfilter: nf_tables: disallow rule addition to bound chain via NFTA_RULE_CHAIN_ID (CVE-2023-4147)

    A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's TUN/TAP functionality. This issue could allow a local user to     bypass network filters and gain unauthorized access to some resources. The original patches fixing     CVE-2023-1076 are incorrect or incomplete. The problem is that the following upstream commits -     a096ccca6e50 (tun: tun_chr_open(): correctly initialize socket uid), - 66b2c338adce (tap: tap_open():
    correctly initialize socket uid), pass inode->i_uid to sock_init_data_uid() as the last parameter and     that turns out to not be accurate. (CVE-2023-4194)

    A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_route component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation.

    When route4_change() is called on an existing filter, the whole tcf_result struct is always copied into     the new instance of the filter. This causes a problem when updating a filter bound to a class, as     tcf_unbind_filter() is always called on the old instance in the success path, decreasing filter_cnt of the     still referenced class and allowing it to be deleted, leading to a use-after-free.

    We recommend upgrading past commit b80b829e9e2c1b3f7aae34855e04d8f6ecaf13c8. (CVE-2023-4206)

    A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_fw component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation.

    When fw_change() is called on an existing filter, the whole tcf_result struct is always copied into the     new instance of the filter. This causes a problem when updating a filter bound to a class, as     tcf_unbind_filter() is always called on the old instance in the success path, decreasing filter_cnt of the     still referenced class and allowing it to be deleted, leading to a use-after-free.

    We recommend upgrading past commit 76e42ae831991c828cffa8c37736ebfb831ad5ec. (CVE-2023-4207)

    A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_u32 component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation.

    When u32_change() is called on an existing filter, the whole tcf_result struct is always copied into the     new instance of the filter. This causes a problem when updating a filter bound to a class, as     tcf_unbind_filter() is always called on the old instance in the success path, decreasing filter_cnt of the     still referenced class and allowing it to be deleted, leading to a use-after-free.

    We recommend upgrading past commit 3044b16e7c6fe5d24b1cdbcf1bd0a9d92d1ebd81. (CVE-2023-4208)

    A flaw was found in the exFAT driver of the Linux kernel. The vulnerability exists in the implementation     of the file name reconstruction function, which is responsible for reading file name entries from a     directory index and merging file name parts belonging to one file into a single long file name. Since the     file name characters are copied into a stack variable, a local privileged attacker could use this flaw to     overflow the kernel stack. (CVE-2023-4273)

    A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's af_unix component can be exploited to achieve local     privilege escalation.

    The unix_stream_sendpage() function tries to add data to the last skb in the peer's recv queue without     locking the queue. Thus there is a race where unix_stream_sendpage() could access an skb locklessly that     is being released by garbage collection, resulting in use-after-free.

    We recommend upgrading past commit 790c2f9d15b594350ae9bca7b236f2b1859de02c. (CVE-2023-4622)

    In the Linux kernel before 6.4.12, amdgpu_cs_wait_all_fences in drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_cs.c has     a fence use-after-free. (CVE-2023-51042)

    In the Linux kernel before 6.4.5, drivers/gpu/drm/drm_atomic.c has a use-after-free during a race     condition between a nonblocking atomic commit and a driver unload. (CVE-2023-51043)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    SUNRPC: Fix UAF in svc_tcp_listen_data_ready() (CVE-2023-52885)

    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 denial of service vulnerability due to a deadlock was found in sctp_auto_asconf_init in     net/sctp/socket.c in the Linux kernel's SCTP subsystem. This flaw allows guests with local user privileges     to trigger a deadlock and potentially crash the system. (CVE-2024-0639)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.

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

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2023-299 advisory.

    An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 6.2. The ntfs3 subsystem does not properly check for     correctness during disk reads, leading to an out-of-bounds read in ntfs_set_ea in fs/ntfs3/xattr.c.
    (CVE-2022-48502)

    An out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: sch_qfq component can be exploited     to achieve local privilege escalation.

    The qfq_change_agg() function in net/sched/sch_qfq.c allows an out-of-bounds write because lmax is updated     according to packet sizes without bounds checks.

    We recommend upgrading past commit 3e337087c3b5805fe0b8a46ba622a962880b5d64. (CVE-2023-3611)

    A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_fw component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation.

    If tcf_change_indev() fails, fw_set_parms() will immediately return an error after incrementing or     decrementing the reference counter in tcf_bind_filter(). If an attacker can control the reference counter     and set it to zero, they can cause the reference to be freed, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability.

    We recommend upgrading past commit 0323bce598eea038714f941ce2b22541c46d488f. (CVE-2023-3776)

    An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in Netfilter Connection Tracking (conntrack) in the Linux     kernel. This flaw allows a remote user to disclose sensitive information via the DCCP protocol.
    (CVE-2023-39197)

    An issue was discovered in net/ceph/messenger_v2.c in the Linux kernel before 6.4.5. There is an integer     signedness error, leading to a buffer overflow and remote code execution via HELLO or one of the AUTH     frames. This occurs because of an untrusted length taken from a TCP packet in ceph_decode_32.
    (CVE-2023-44466)

    In the Linux kernel before 6.4.5, drivers/gpu/drm/drm_atomic.c has a use-after-free during a race     condition between a nonblocking atomic commit and a driver unload. (CVE-2023-51043)
