  - The specific flaw exists within the DPT I2O Controller driver. The issue results from the lack of proper     locking when performing operations on an object. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other     vulnerabilities to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of the kernel.
    (CVE-2023-2007)

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

  - A division-by-zero error on some AMD processors can potentially return speculative data resulting in loss     of confidentiality. (CVE-2023-20588) (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. Flaw in the error handling of bound chains causes a use-after-free in     the abort path of NFT_MSG_NEWRULE. The vulnerability requires CAP_NET_ADMIN to be triggered. We recommend     upgrading past commit 4bedf9eee016286c835e3d8fa981ddece5338795. (CVE-2023-3610)

  - An issue was discovered in the USB subsystem in the Linux kernel through 6.4.2. There is an out-of-bounds     and crash in read_descriptors in drivers/usb/core/sysfs.c. (CVE-2023-37453)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IP framework for transforming packets (XFRM subsystem). This issue     may allow a malicious user with CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges to directly dereference a NULL pointer in     xfrm_update_ae_params(), leading to a possible kernel crash and denial of service. (CVE-2023-3772)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in nfc_llcp_find_local in net/nfc/llcp_core.c in NFC in the Linux kernel.

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 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 flaw was found in vmxnet3_rq_alloc_rx_buf in drivers/net/vmxnet3/vmxnet3_drv.c in     VMware's vmxnet3 ethernet NIC driver in the Linux Kernel.

    (CVE-2023-5197)

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

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

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

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 6.0.9. drivers/media/dvb-core/dvb_net.c has a     .disconnect versus dvb_device_open race condition that leads to a use-after-free. (CVE-2022-45886)

  - A hash collision flaw was found in the IPv6 connection lookup table in the Linux kernel's IPv6     functionality when a user makes a new kind of SYN flood attack. A user located in the local network or     with a high bandwidth connection can increase the CPU usage of the server that accepts IPV6 connections up     to 95%. (CVE-2023-1206)

  - An out-of-bounds memory access flaw was found in the Linux kernel's XFS file system in how a user restores     an XFS image after failure (with a dirty log journal). This flaw allows a local user to crash or     potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2023-2124)

  - In multiple functions of binder.c, there is a possible memory corruption due to a use after free. This     could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User     interaction is not needed for exploitation. (CVE-2023-21255)

  - A known cache speculation vulnerability, known as Branch History Injection (BHI) or Spectre-BHB, becomes     actual again for the new hw AmpereOne. Spectre-BHB is similar to Spectre v2, except that malicious code     uses the shared branch history (stored in the CPU Branch History Buffer, or BHB) to influence mispredicted     branches within the victim's hardware context. Once that occurs, speculation caused by the mispredicted     branches can cause cache allocation. This issue leads to obtaining information that should not be     accessible. (CVE-2023-3006)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 6.1-rc8. dpu_crtc_atomic_check in     drivers/gpu/drm/msm/disp/dpu1/dpu_crtc.c lacks check of the return value of kzalloc() and will cause the     NULL Pointer Dereference. (CVE-2023-3220)

  - A null pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel's DECnet networking protocol. This issue     could allow a remote user to crash the system. (CVE-2023-3338)

  - A null pointer dereference was found in the Linux kernel's Integrated Sensor Hub (ISH) driver. This issue     could allow a local user to crash the system. (CVE-2023-3358)

  - 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 with a frontend splitting a packet in a     way such that not all of the headers would come in one piece. Unfortunately the logic introduced there     didn't account for the extreme case of the entire packet being split into as many pieces as permitted by     the protocol, yet still being smaller than the area that's specially dealt with to keep all (possible)     headers together. Such an unusual packet would therefore trigger a buffer overrun in the driver.
    (CVE-2023-34319)

  - Linux Kernel nftables Out-Of-Bounds Read/Write Vulnerability; nft_byteorder poorly handled vm register     contents when CAP_NET_ADMIN is in any user or network namespace (CVE-2023-35001)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 6.3.2. A use-after-free was found in     renesas_usb3_remove in drivers/usb/gadget/udc/renesas_usb3.c. (CVE-2023-35828)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_u32 component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation. If tcf_change_indev() fails, u32_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 04c55383fa5689357bcdd2c8036725a55ed632bc.
    (CVE-2023-3609)

  - 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 flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IP framework for transforming packets (XFRM subsystem). This issue     may allow a malicious user with CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges to directly dereference a NULL pointer in     xfrm_update_ae_params(), leading to a possible kernel crash and denial of service. (CVE-2023-3772)

  - 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)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in nfc_llcp_find_local in net/nfc/llcp_core.c in NFC in the Linux kernel.
    This flaw allows a local user with special privileges to impact a kernel information leak issue.
    (CVE-2023-3863)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the siano smsusb module in the Linux kernel. The bug occurs     during device initialization when the siano device is plugged in. This flaw allows a local user to crash     the system, causing a denial of service condition. (CVE-2023-4132)

  - 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 NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in dbFree in fs/jfs/jfs_dmap.c in the journaling file system     (JFS) in the Linux Kernel. This issue may allow a local attacker to crash the system due to a missing     sanity check. (CVE-2023-4385)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in vmxnet3_rq_alloc_rx_buf in drivers/net/vmxnet3/vmxnet3_drv.c in     VMware's vmxnet3 ethernet NIC driver in the Linux Kernel. This issue could allow a local attacker to crash     the system due to a double-free while cleaning up vmxnet3_rq_cleanup_all, which could also lead to a     kernel information leak problem. (CVE-2023-4387)

  - A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in vmxnet3_rq_cleanup in drivers/net/vmxnet3/vmxnet3_drv.c in     the networking sub-component in vmxnet3 in the Linux Kernel. This issue may allow a local attacker with     normal user privilege to cause a denial of service due to a missing sanity check during cleanup.
