Synopsis

The CentOS Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The CentOS Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TuxCare CENTOS6:CLSA-2026:1771238245 advisory.

 - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: btsdio: fix use after free bug in btsdio_remove due to race condition In btsdio_probe, the data->work is bound with btsdio_work. It will be started in btsdio_send_frame. If the btsdio_remove runs with a unfinished work, there may be a race condition that hdev is freed but used in btsdio_work. Fix it by canceling the work before do cleanup in btsdio_remove. (CVE-2023-53145)

 - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ubi: ensure that VID header offset + VID header size <= alloc, size Ensure that the VID header offset + VID header size does not exceed the allocated area to avoid slab OOB. BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in crc32_body lib/crc32.c:111 [inline] BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in crc32_le_generic lib/crc32.c:179 [inline] BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in crc32_le_base+0x58c/0x626 lib/crc32.c:197 Read of size 4 at addr ffff88802bb36f00 by task syz- executor136/1555 CPU: 2 PID: 1555 Comm: syz-executor136 Tainted: G W 6.0.0-1868 #1 Hardware name: Red Hat KVM, BIOS 1.13.0-2.module+el8.3.0+7860+a7792d29 04/01/2014 Call Trace: <TASK> __dump_stack lib/dump_stack.c:88 [inline] dump_stack_lvl+0x85/0xad lib/dump_stack.c:106 print_address_description mm/kasan/report.c:317 [inline] print_report.cold.13+0xb6/0x6bb mm/kasan/report.c:433 kasan_report+0xa7/0x11b mm/kasan/report.c:495 crc32_body lib/crc32.c:111 [inline] crc32_le_generic lib/crc32.c:179 [inline] crc32_le_base+0x58c/0x626 lib/crc32.c:197 ubi_io_write_vid_hdr+0x1b7/0x472 drivers/mtd/ubi/io.c:1067 create_vtbl+0x4d5/0x9c4 drivers/mtd/ubi/vtbl.c:317 create_empty_lvol drivers/mtd/ubi/vtbl.c:500 [inline] ubi_read_volume_table+0x67b/0x288a drivers/mtd/ubi/vtbl.c:812 ubi_attach+0xf34/0x1603 drivers/mtd/ubi/attach.c:1601 ubi_attach_mtd_dev+0x6f3/0x185e drivers/mtd/ubi/build.c:965 ctrl_cdev_ioctl+0x2db/0x347 drivers/mtd/ubi/cdev.c:1043 vfs_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:51 [inline] __do_sys_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:870 [inline] __se_sys_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:856 [inline]

 - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: lpfc: Fix use-after-free KFENCE violation during sysfs firmware write During the sysfs firmware write process, a use-after-free read warning is logged from the lpfc_wr_object() routine: BUG: KFENCE: use-after-free read in lpfc_wr_object+0x235/0x310 [lpfc] Use-after-free read at 0x0000000000cf164d (in kfence-#111):

Fix by moving the mailbox free calls to the end of the routine ensuring that we don't reference internal mailbox memory after release. (CVE-2023-53282)

 - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: ses: Fix slab-out-of-bounds in ses_intf_remove() A fix for: BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in ses_intf_remove+0x23f/0x270 [ses] Read of size 8 at addr ffff88a10d32e5d8 by task rmmod/12013 When edev->components is zero, accessing edev->component[0] members is wrong. (CVE-2023-53521)

 - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: ses: Fix possible desc_ptr out- of-bounds accesses Sanitize possible desc_ptr out-of-bounds accesses in ses_enclosure_data_process().
 (CVE-2023-53675)

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