    (CVE-2019-18808)

  - ** DISPUTED ** A memory leak in the __ipmi_bmc_register() function in drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c     in the Linux kernel through 5.3.11 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by     triggering ida_simple_get() failure, aka CID-4aa7afb0ee20. NOTE: third parties dispute the relevance of     this because an attacker cannot realistically control this failure at probe time. (CVE-2019-19046)

  - In the Linux kernel before 5.2, a setxattr operation, after a mount of a crafted ext4 image, can cause a     slab-out-of-bounds write access because of an ext4_xattr_set_entry use-after-free in fs/ext4/xattr.c when     a large old_size value is used in a memset call, aka CID-345c0dbf3a30. (CVE-2019-19319)

  - An out-of-bounds memory write issue was found in the Linux Kernel, version 3.13 through 5.4, in the way     the Linux kernel's KVM hypervisor handled the 'KVM_GET_EMULATED_CPUID' ioctl(2) request to get CPUID     features emulated by the KVM hypervisor. A user or process able to access the '/dev/kvm' device could use     this flaw to crash the system, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2019-19332)

  - In the Linux kernel before 5.3.12, there is a use-after-free bug that can be caused by a malicious USB     device in the drivers/input/ff-memless.c driver, aka CID-fa3a5a1880c9. (CVE-2019-19524)

  - In the Linux kernel before 5.2.10, there is a race condition bug that can be caused by a malicious USB     device in the USB character device driver layer, aka CID-303911cfc5b9. This affects     drivers/usb/core/file.c. (CVE-2019-19537)

  - In the Linux kernel before 5.4.12, drivers/input/input.c has out-of-bounds writes via a crafted keycode     table, as demonstrated by input_set_keycode, aka CID-cb222aed03d7. (CVE-2019-20636)

  - In the Android kernel in the video driver there is a use after free due to a race condition. This could     lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is     not needed for exploitation. (CVE-2019-9458)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of Userspace core dumps. This flaw allows an     attacker with a local account to crash a trivial program and exfiltrate private kernel data.
    (CVE-2020-10732)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernels SELinux LSM hook implementation before version 5.7, where it     incorrectly assumed that an skb would only contain a single netlink message. The hook would incorrectly     only validate the first netlink message in the skb and allow or deny the rest of the messages within the     skb with the granted permission without further processing. (CVE-2020-10751)

  - ** DISPUTED ** An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.6.2. mpol_parse_str in mm/mempolicy.c     has a stack-based out-of-bounds write because an empty nodelist is mishandled during mount option parsing,     aka CID-aa9f7d5172fa. NOTE: Someone in the security community disagrees that this is a vulnerability     because the issue is a bug in parsing mount options which can only be specified by a privileged user, so     triggering the bug does not grant any powers not already held.. (CVE-2020-11565)

  - In the Linux kernel before 5.6.1, drivers/media/usb/gspca/xirlink_cit.c (aka the Xirlink camera USB     driver) mishandles invalid descriptors, aka CID-a246b4d54770. (CVE-2020-11668)

  - Improper input validation in BlueZ may allow an unauthenticated user to potentially enable escalation of     privilege via adjacent access. (CVE-2020-12351)

  - Improper access control in BlueZ may allow an unauthenticated user to potentially enable information     disclosure via adjacent access. (CVE-2020-12352)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.6.7. xdp_umem_reg in net/xdp/xdp_umem.c has an out-     of-bounds write (by a user with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability) because of a lack of headroom validation.
    (CVE-2020-12659)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.6.11. sg_write lacks an sg_remove_request call in a     certain failure case, aka CID-83c6f2390040. (CVE-2020-12770)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernels implementation of the invert video code on VGA consoles when a     local attacker attempts to resize the console, calling an ioctl VT_RESIZE, which causes an out-of-bounds     write to occur. This flaw allows a local user with access to the VGA console to crash the system,     potentially escalating their privileges on the system. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to     data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability. (CVE-2020-14331)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel before 5.9-rc4. Memory corruption can be exploited to gain root     privileges from unprivileged processes. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data     confidentiality and integrity. (CVE-2020-14386)

  - There is a use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel through 5.5.2 in the vc_do_resize function in     drivers/tty/vt/vt.c. (CVE-2020-8647)

  - In the Linux kernel before 5.0.6, there is a NULL pointer dereference in drop_sysctl_table() in     fs/proc/proc_sysctl.c, related to put_links, aka CID-23da9588037e. (CVE-2019-20054)

  - In the Linux kernel before 5.4.12, drivers/input/input.c has out-of-bounds writes via a crafted keycode     table, as demonstrated by input_set_keycode, aka CID-cb222aed03d7. (CVE-2019-20636)

  - In cdev_get of char_dev.c, there is a possible use-after-free due to a race condition. This could lead to     local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for     exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android-10Android ID: A-153467744 (CVE-2020-0305)

  - In audit_free_lsm_field of auditfilter.c, there is a possible bad kfree due to a logic error in     audit_data_to_entry. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution     privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android     kernelAndroid ID: A-150693166References: Upstream kernel (CVE-2020-0444)

  - There is a use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel through 5.5.2 in the vc_do_resize function in     drivers/tty/vt/vt.c. (CVE-2020-8647)

  - There is a use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel through 5.5.2 in the vgacon_invert_region     function in drivers/video/console/vgacon.c. (CVE-2020-8649)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of Userspace core dumps. This flaw allows an     attacker with a local account to crash a trivial program and exfiltrate private kernel data.
    (CVE-2020-10732)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernels SELinux LSM hook implementation before version 5.7, where it     incorrectly assumed that an skb would only contain a single netlink message. The hook would incorrectly     only validate the first netlink message in the skb and allow or deny the rest of the messages within the     skb with the granted permission without further processing. (CVE-2020-10751)

  - A stack information leak flaw was found in s390/s390x in the Linux kernel's memory manager functionality,     where it incorrectly writes to the /proc/sys/vm/cmm_timeout file. This flaw allows a local user to see the     kernel data. (CVE-2020-10773)

  - A memory disclosure flaw was found in the Linux kernel's versions before 4.18.0-193.el8 in the sysctl     subsystem when reading the /proc/sys/kernel/rh_features file. This flaw allows a local user to read     uninitialized values from the kernel memory. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to     confidentiality. (CVE-2020-10774)

  - In the Linux kernel before 5.5.8, get_raw_socket in drivers/vhost/net.c lacks validation of an sk_family     field, which might allow attackers to trigger kernel stack corruption via crafted system calls.
    (CVE-2020-10942)

  - ** DISPUTED ** An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.6.2. mpol_parse_str in mm/mempolicy.c     has a stack-based out-of-bounds write because an empty nodelist is mishandled during mount option parsing,     aka CID-aa9f7d5172fa. NOTE: Someone in the security community disagrees that this is a vulnerability     because the issue is a bug in parsing mount options which can only be specified by a privileged user, so     triggering the bug does not grant any powers not already held.. (CVE-2020-11565)

  - In the Linux kernel before 5.6.1, drivers/media/usb/gspca/xirlink_cit.c (aka the Xirlink camera USB     driver) mishandles invalid descriptors, aka CID-a246b4d54770. (CVE-2020-11668)

  - An array overflow was discovered in mt76_add_fragment in drivers/net/wireless/mediatek/mt76/dma.c in the     Linux kernel before 5.5.10, aka CID-b102f0c522cf. An oversized packet with too many rx fragments can     corrupt memory of adjacent pages. (CVE-2020-12465)

  - An issue was discovered in xfs_agf_verify in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_alloc.c in the Linux kernel through 5.6.10.
    Attackers may trigger a sync of excessive duration via an XFS v5 image with crafted metadata, aka     CID-d0c7feaf8767. (CVE-2020-12655)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.6.7. xdp_umem_reg in net/xdp/xdp_umem.c has an out-     of-bounds write (by a user with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability) because of a lack of headroom validation.
    (CVE-2020-12659)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.6.11. sg_write lacks an sg_remove_request call in a     certain failure case, aka CID-83c6f2390040. (CVE-2020-12770)

  - A signal access-control issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.6.5, aka CID-7395ea4e65c2.
    Because exec_id in include/linux/sched.h is only 32 bits, an integer overflow can interfere with a     do_notify_parent protection mechanism. A child process can send an arbitrary signal to a parent process in     a different security domain. Exploitation limitations include the amount of elapsed time before an integer     overflow occurs, and the lack of scenarios where signals to a parent process present a substantial     operational threat. (CVE-2020-12826)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's futex implementation. This flaw allows a local attacker to corrupt     system memory or escalate their privileges when creating a futex on a filesystem that is about to be     unmounted. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality, integrity, as well as system     availability. (CVE-2020-14381)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of biovecs in versions before 5.9-rc7. A zero-length     biovec request issued by the block subsystem could cause the kernel to enter an infinite loop, causing a     denial of service. This flaw allows a local attacker with basic privileges to issue requests to a block     device, resulting in a denial of service. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system     availability. (CVE-2020-25641)

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

  - The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz),     the core of any Linux operating system. The kernel     handles the basic functions of the operating system:
    memory allocation, process allocation, device input and     output, etc.Security Fix(es):Heap-based buffer overflow     in the udf_load_logicalvol function in fs/udf/super.c     in the Linux kernel before 3.4.5 allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash)     or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted     UDF filesystem.(CVE-2012-3400)The     mmc_ioctl_cdrom_read_data function in     drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c in the Linux kernel through 3.10     allows local users to obtain sensitive information from     kernel memory via a read operation on a malfunctioning     CD-ROM drive.(CVE-2013-2164)The     sctp_sf_do_5_2_4_dupcook function in     net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c in the SCTP implementation in     the Linux kernel before 3.8.5 does not properly handle     associations during the processing of a duplicate     COOKIE ECHO chunk, which allows remote attackers to     cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and     system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact     via crafted SCTP traffic.(CVE-2013-2206)The (1)     get_user and (2) put_user API functions in the Linux     kernel before 3.5.5 on the v6k and v7 ARM platforms do     not validate certain addresses, which allows attackers     to read or modify the contents of arbitrary kernel     memory locations via a crafted application, as     exploited in the wild against Android devices in     October and November 2013.(CVE-2013-6282)An issue was     discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.20. There is a     race condition in smp_task_timedout() and     smp_task_done() in drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_expander.c,     leading to a use-after-free.(CVE-2018-20836)The Siemens     R3964 line discipline driver in drivers/tty/n_r3964.c     in the Linux kernel before 5.0.8 has multiple race     conditions.(CVE-2019-11486)The Linux kernel before     5.1-rc5 allows page->_refcount reference count     overflow, with resultant use-after-free issues, if     about 140 GiB of RAM exists. This is related to     fs/fuse/dev.c, fs/pipe.c, fs/splice.c,     include/linux/mm.h, include/linux/pipe_fs_i.h,     kernel/trace/trace.c, mm/gup.c, and mm/hugetlb.c. It     can occur with FUSE requests.(CVE-2019-11487)The     coredump implementation in the Linux kernel before     5.0.10 does not use locking or other mechanisms to     prevent vma layout or vma flags changes while it runs,     which allows local users to obtain sensitive     information, cause a denial of service, or possibly     have unspecified other impact by triggering a race     condition with mmget_not_zero or get_task_mm calls.
    This is related to fs/userfaultfd.c, mm/mmap.c,     fs/proc/task_mmu.c, and     drivers/infiniband/core/uverbs_main.c.(CVE-2019-11599)A     n issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before     5.0.7. A NULL pointer dereference can occur when     megasas_create_frame_pool() fails in     megasas_alloc_cmds() in     drivers/scsi/megaraid/megaraid_sas_base.c. This causes     a Denial of Service, related to a     use-after-free.(CVE-2019-11810)An issue was discovered     in the Linux kernel before 5.0.4. There is a     use-after-free upon attempted read access to     /proc/ioports after the ipmi_si module is removed,     related to drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c,     drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_mem_io.c, and     drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_port_io.c.(CVE-2019-11811)A     flaw was found in the Linux kernel's handle_rx()     function in the [vhost_net] driver. A malicious virtual     guest, under specific conditions, can trigger an     out-of-bounds write in a kmalloc-8 slab on a virtual     host which may lead to a kernel memory corruption and a     system panic. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege     escalation cannot be fully ruled out. Versions from     v4.16 and newer are vulnerable.(CVE-2018-16880)An issue     was discovered in rds_tcp_kill_sock in net/rds/tcp.c in     the Linux kernel before 5.0.8. There is a race     condition leading to a use-after-free, related to net     namespace cleanup.(CVE-2019-11815)A flaw was found in     the Linux kernel in the function     hid_debug_events_read() in drivers/hid/hid-debug.c file     which may enter an infinite loop with certain     parameters passed from a userspace. A local privileged     user ('root') can cause a system lock up and a denial     of service. Versions from v4.18 and newer are     vulnerable.(CVE-2019-3819)A flaw was found in the Linux     kernel's vfio interface implementation that permits     violation of the user's locked memory limit. If a     device is bound to a vfio driver, such as vfio-pci, and     the local attacker is administratively granted     ownership of the device, it may cause a system memory     exhaustion and thus a denial of service (DoS). Versions     3.10, 4.14 and 4.18 are vulnerable.(CVE-2019-3882)An     infinite loop issue was found in the vhost_net kernel     module in Linux Kernel up to and including v5.1-rc6,     while handling incoming packets in handle_rx(). It     could occur if one end sends packets faster than the     other end can process them. A guest user, maybe remote     one, could use this flaw to stall the vhost_net kernel     thread, resulting in a DoS scenario.(CVE-2019-3900)In     the Linux Kernel before versions 4.20.8 and 4.19.21 a     use-after-free error in the 'sctp_sendmsg()' function     (net/sctp/socket.c) when handling SCTP_SENDALL flag can     be exploited to corrupt memory.(CVE-2019-8956)A flaw     was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of ext4     extent management. The kernel doesn't correctly     initialize memory regions in the extent tree block     which may be exported to a local user to obtain     sensitive information by reading empty/uninitialized     data from the filesystem.(CVE-2019-11833)An issue was     discovered in drm_load_edid_firmware in     drivers/gpu/drm/drm_edid_load.c in the Linux kernel     through 5.1.5. There is an unchecked kstrdup of fwstr,     which might allow an attacker to cause a denial of     service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash).
    NOTE: The vendor disputes this issues as not being a     vulnerability because kstrdup() returning NULL is     handled sufficiently and there is no chance for a NULL     pointer dereference.(CVE-2019-12382)An issue was     discovered in the efi subsystem in the Linux kernel     through 5.1.5. phys_efi_set_virtual_address_map in     arch/x86/platform/efi/efi.c and efi_call_phys_prolog in     arch/x86/platform/efi/efi_64.c mishandle memory     allocation failures. NOTE: This id is disputed as not     being an issue because ?All the code touched by the     referenced commit runs only at boot, before any user     processes are started. Therefore, there is no     possibility for an unprivileged user to control     it.(CVE-2019-12380)An issue was discovered in the Linux     kernel before 5.2.3. An out of bounds access exists in     the function hclge_tm_schd_mode_vnet_base_cfg in the     file drivers     et/ethernet/hisilicon/hns3/hns3pf/hclge_tm.c.(CVE-2019-     15925)An issue was discovered in     dlpar_parse_cc_property in     arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/dlpar.c in the Linux     kernel through 5.1.6. There is an unchecked kstrdup of     prop-i1/4zname, which might allow an attacker to cause a     denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system     crash).(CVE-2019-12614)An issue was discovered in     net/ipv4/sysctl_net_ipv4.c in the Linux kernel before     5.0.11. There is a net/ipv4/tcp_input.c signed integer     overflow in tcp_ack_update_rtt() when userspace writes     a very large integer to     /proc/syset/ipv4/tcp_min_rtt_wlen, leading to a denial     of service or possibly unspecified other impact, aka     CID-19fad20d15a6.(CVE-2019-18805)A flaw was found in     the way PTRACE_TRACEME functionality was handled in the     Linux kernel. The kernel's implementation of ptrace can     inadvertently grant elevated permissions to an attacker     who can then abuse the relationship between the tracer     and the process being traced. This flaw could allow a     local, unprivileged user to increase their privileges     on the system or cause a denial of     service.(CVE-2019-13272)An issue was discovered in     ip6_ra_control in net/ipv6/ipv6_sockglue.c in the Linux     kernel through 5.1.5. There is an unchecked kmalloc of     new_ra, which might allow an attacker to cause a denial     of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash).
    NOTE: This has been disputed as not an     issue.(CVE-2019-12378)An issue was discovered in     ip_ra_control in net/ipv4/ip_sockglue.c in the Linux     kernel through 5.1.5. There is an unchecked kmalloc of     new_ra, which might allow an attacker to cause a denial     of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash).
    NOTE: this is disputed because new_ra is never used if     it is NULL.(CVE-2019-12381)An issue was discovered in     sunxi_divs_clk_setup in drivers/clk/sunxi/clk-sunxi.c     in the Linux kernel through 5.1.5. There is an     unchecked kstrndup of derived_name, which might allow     an attacker to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and system crash). NOTE: This id is     disputed as not being an issue because 'The memory     allocation that was not checked is part of a code that     only runs at boot time, before user processes are     started. Therefore, there is no possibility for an     unprivileged user to control it, and no denial of     service.'.(CVE-2019-12455)An issue was discovered in     the MPT3COMMAND case in _ctl_ioctl_main in     drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_ctl.c in the Linux kernel     through 5.1.5. It allows local users to cause a denial     of service or possibly have unspecified other impact by     changing the value of ioc_number between two kernel     reads of that value, aka a ''double fetch''     vulnerability. NOTE: a third party reports that this is     unexploitable because the doubly fetched value is not     used.(CVE-2019-12456)An issue was discovered in     get_vdev_port_node_info in arch/sparc/kernel/mdesc.c in     the Linux kernel through 5.1.6. There is an unchecked     kstrdup_const of node_info-i1/4zvdev_port.name, which     might allow an attacker to cause a denial of service     (NULL pointer dereference and system     crash).(CVE-2019-12615)In parse_hid_report_descriptor     in drivers/input/tablet/gtco.c in the Linux kernel     through 5.2.1, a malicious USB device can send an HID     report that triggers an out-of-bounds write during     generation of debugging messages.(CVE-2019-13631)A     vulnerability was found in the Linux kernelaEURtms floppy     disk driver implementation. A local attacker with     access to the floppy device could call set_geometry in     drivers/block/floppy.c, which does not validate the     sect and head fields, causing an integer overflow and     out-of-bounds read. This flaw may crash the system or     allow an attacker to gather information causing     subsequent successful     attacks.(CVE-2019-14283)check_input_term in     sound/usb/mixer.c in the Linux kernel through 5.2.9     mishandles recursion, leading to kernel stack     exhaustion.(CVE-2019-15118)An issue was discovered in     the Linux kernel before 5.2.6. There is a     use-after-free caused by a malicious USB device in the     drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c driver because     drivers/media/radio/radio-raremono.c does not properly     allocate memory.(CVE-2019-15211)An issue was discovered     in the Linux kernel before 5.0.10. There is a     use-after-free in the sound subsystem because card     disconnection causes certain data structures to be     deleted too early. This is related to sound/core/init.c     and sound/core/info.c.(CVE-2019-15214)An issue was     discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.1.8. There is a     NULL pointer dereference caused by a malicious USB     device in the drivers/media/usb/siano/smsusb.c     driver.(CVE-2019-15218)An issue was discovered in the     Linux kernel before 5.1.8. There is a NULL pointer     dereference caused by a malicious USB device in the     drivers/usb/misc/sisusbvga/sisusb.c     driver.(CVE-2019-15219)An issue was discovered in the     Linux kernel before 5.2.1. There is a use-after-free     caused by a malicious USB device in the     driverset/wireless/intersil/p54/p54usb.c     driver.(CVE-2019-15220)An issue was discovered in the     Linux kernel before 5.1.17. There is a NULL pointer     dereference caused by a malicious USB device in the     sound/usb/line6/pcm.c driver.(CVE-2019-15221)An issue     was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.0.9. There     is a use-after-free in atalk_proc_exit, related to     net/appletalk/atalk_proc.c, net/appletalk/ddp.c, and     net/appletalk/sysctl_net_atalk.c.(CVE-2019-15292)An     issue was discovered in xfs_setattr_nonsize in     fs/xfs/xfs_iops.c in the Linux kernel through 5.2.9.
    XFS partially wedges when a chgrp fails on account of     being out of disk quota. xfs_setattr_nonsize is failing     to unlock the ILOCK after the xfs_qm_vop_chown_reserve     call fails. This is primarily a local DoS attack     vector, but it might result as well in remote DoS if     the XFS filesystem is exported for instance via     NFS.(CVE-2019-15538)An issue was discovered in the     Linux kernel before 5.0.19. There is an out-of-bounds     array access in __xfrm_policy_unlink, which will cause     denial of service, because verify_newpolicy_info in     net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c mishandles directory     validation.(CVE-2019-15666)In the Linux kernel before     5.1.13, there is a memory leak in     drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_expander.c when SAS expander     discovery fails. This will cause a BUG and denial of     service.(CVE-2019-15807)An issue was discovered in the     Linux kernel before 5.0.5. There is a use-after-free     issue when hci_uart_register_dev() fails in     hci_uart_set_proto() in     drivers/bluetooth/hci_ldisc.c.(CVE-2019-15917)An issue     was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.0.10.
    SMB2_write in fs/cifs/smb2pdu.c has a     use-after-free.(CVE-2019-15919)An issue was discovered     in the Linux kernel before 5.0.10. SMB2_read in     fs/cifs/smb2pdu.c has a use-after-free. NOTE: this was     not fixed correctly in 5.0.10 see the 5.0.11 ChangeLog,     which documents a memory leak.(CVE-2019-15920)An issue     was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.0.4. The 9p     filesystem did not protect i_size_write() properly,     which causes an i_size_read() infinite loop and denial     of service on SMP systems.(CVE-2019-16413)An issue was     discovered in can_can_gw_rcv in net/can/gw.c in the     Linux kernel through 4.19.13. The CAN frame     modification rules allow bitwise logical operations     that can be also applied to the can_dlc field. Because     of a missing check, the CAN drivers may write arbitrary     content beyond the data registers in the CAN     controller's I/O memory when processing can-gw     manipulated outgoing frames. This is related to     cgw_csum_xor_rel. An unprivileged user can trigger a     system crash (general protection     fault).(CVE-2019-3701)A flaw was found in the Linux     kernel's Marvell wifi chip driver. A heap overflow in     mwifiex_update_bss_desc_with_ie function in     marvell/mwifiex/scan.c allows remote attackers to cause     a denial of service(system crash) or execute arbitrary     code.(CVE-2019-3846)A new software page cache side     channel attack scenario was discovered in operating     systems that implement the very common 'page cache'     caching mechanism. A malicious user/process could use     'in memory' page-cache knowledge to infer access     timings to shared memory and gain knowledge which can     be used to reduce effectiveness of cryptographic     strength by monitoring algorithmic behavior, infer     access patterns of memory to determine code paths     taken, and exfiltrate data to a blinded attacker     through page-granularity access times as a     side-channel.(CVE-2019-5489)In the Android kernel in     the video driver there is a kernel pointer leak due to     a WARN_ON statement. This could lead to local     information disclosure with System execution privileges     needed. User interaction is not needed for     exploitation.(CVE-2019-9455)A vulnerability was found     in the arch/x86/lib/insn-eval.c function in the Linux     kernel. An attacker could corrupt the memory due to a     flaw in use-after-free access to an LDT entry caused by     a race condition between modify_ldt() and a #BR     exception for an MPX bounds violation.(CVE-2019-13233)
