* A flaw was found in the way IP packets with an Internet Header Length (ihl) of zero were processed in the skb_flow_dissect() function in the Linux kernel. A remote attacker could use this flaw to trigger an infinite loop in the kernel, leading to a denial of service.
(CVE-2013-4348, Important)

* A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's IPv6 implementation handled certain UDP packets when the UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) feature was enabled. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system.
(CVE-2013-4387, Important)

* A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel handled the creation of temporary IPv6 addresses. If the IPv6 privacy extension was enabled (/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/eth0/use_tempaddr set to '2'), an attacker on the local network could disable IPv6 temporary address generation, leading to a potential information disclosure. (CVE-2013-0343, Moderate)

* A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel handled HID (Human Interface Device) reports with an out-of-bounds Report ID. An attacker with physical access to the system could use this flaw to crash the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system.
(CVE-2013-2888, Moderate)

* Heap-based buffer overflow flaws were found in the way the Pantherlord/GreenAsia game controller driver, the Logitech force feedback drivers, and the Logitech Unifying receivers driver handled HID reports. An attacker with physical access to the system could use these flaws to crash the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2013-2892, CVE-2013-2893, CVE-2013-2895, Moderate)

* A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the way the N-Trig touch screen driver handled HID reports. An attacker with physical access to the system could use this flaw to crash the system, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2013-2896, Moderate)

* An information leak flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's device mapper subsystem, under certain conditions, interpreted data written to snapshot block devices. An attacker could use this flaw to read data from disk blocks in free space, which are normally inaccessible. (CVE-2013-4299, Moderate)

* A use-after-free flaw was found in the tun_set_iff() function in the Universal TUN/TAP device driver implementation in the Linux kernel. A privileged user could use this flaw to crash the system or, potentially, further escalate their privileges on the system.
(CVE-2013-4343, Moderate)

* An off-by-one flaw was found in the way the ANSI CPRNG implementation in the Linux kernel processed non-block size aligned requests. This could lead to random numbers being generated with less bits of entropy than expected when ANSI CPRNG was used.
(CVE-2013-4345, Moderate)

* A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's IPv6 SCTP implementation interacted with the IPsec subsystem. This resulted in unencrypted SCTP packets being sent over the network even though IPsec encryption was enabled. An attacker able to inspect these SCTP packets could use this flaw to obtain potentially sensitive information.
(CVE-2013-4350, Moderate)

Red Hat would like to thank Fujitsu for reporting CVE-2013-4299 and Stephan Mueller for reporting CVE-2013-4345. The CVE-2013-4348 issue was discovered by Jason Wang of Red Hat.

Bug fix :

* RoCE appeared to be supported in the MRG Realtime kernel even when the required user space packages from the HPN channel were not installed. The Realtime kernel now checks for the HPN channel packages before exposing the RoCE interfaces. RoCE devices appear as plain 10GigE devices if the needed HPN channel user space packages are not installed. (BZ#1012993)

Users should upgrade to these updated packages, which upgrade the kernel-rt kernel to version kernel-rt-3.8.13-rt14, and correct these issues. The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect.

The remote Oracle Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2014-3002 advisory.

  - The HP Smart Array controller disk-array driver and Compaq SMART2 controller disk-array driver in the     Linux kernel through 3.9.4 do not initialize certain data structures, which allows local users to obtain     sensitive information from kernel memory via (1) a crafted IDAGETPCIINFO command for a /dev/ida device,     related to the ida_locked_ioctl function in drivers/block/cpqarray.c or (2) a crafted CCISS_PASSTHRU32     command for a /dev/cciss device, related to the cciss_ioctl32_passthru function in drivers/block/cciss.c.
    (CVE-2013-2147)

  - The fill_event_metadata function in fs/notify/fanotify/fanotify_user.c in the Linux kernel through 3.9.4     does not initialize a certain structure member, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information     from kernel memory via a read operation on the fanotify descriptor. (CVE-2013-2148)

  - Heap-based buffer overflow in the iscsi_add_notunderstood_response function in     drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target_parameters.c in the iSCSI target subsystem in the Linux kernel through     3.9.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and OOPS) or possibly     execute arbitrary code via a long key that is not properly handled during construction of an error-     response packet. (CVE-2013-2850)

  - The Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.11, when CONFIG_LOGITECH_FF,     CONFIG_LOGIG940_FF, or CONFIG_LOGIWHEELS_FF is enabled, allows physically proximate attackers to cause a     denial of service (heap-based out-of-bounds write) via a crafted device, related to (1) drivers/hid/hid-     lgff.c, (2) drivers/hid/hid-lg3ff.c, and (3) drivers/hid/hid-lg4ff.c. (CVE-2013-2893)

  - drivers/hid/hid-logitech-dj.c in the Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem in the Linux kernel through     3.11, when CONFIG_HID_LOGITECH_DJ is enabled, allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of     service (NULL pointer dereference and OOPS) or obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a     crafted device.

(CVE-2013-2899)

  - The IPv6 SCTP implementation in net/sctp/ipv6.c in the Linux kernel through 3.11.1 uses data structures     and function calls that do not trigger an intended configuration of IPsec encryption, which allows remote     attackers to obtain sensitive information by sniffing the network. (CVE-2013-4350)

  - Memory leak in the unshare_userns function in kernel/user_namespace.c in the Linux kernel before 3.10.6     allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via an invalid CLONE_NEWUSER unshare     call. (CVE-2013-4205)

  - Off-by-one error in the build_unc_path_to_root function in fs/cifs/connect.c in the Linux kernel before     3.9.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) via a DFS     share mount operation that triggers use of an unexpected DFS referral name length. (CVE-2013-4247)

  - The net_ctl_permissions function in net/sysctl_net.c in the Linux kernel before 3.11.5 does not properly     determine uid and gid values, which allows local users to bypass intended /proc/sys/net restrictions via a     crafted application. (CVE-2013-4270)

  - The scm_check_creds function in net/core/scm.c in the Linux kernel before 3.11 performs a capability check     in an incorrect namespace, which allows local users to gain privileges via PID spoofing. (CVE-2013-4300)

  - The fib6_add function in net/ipv6/ip6_fib.c in the Linux kernel before 3.11.5 does not properly implement     error-code encoding, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and     system crash) by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for an IPv6 SIOCADDRT ioctl call. (CVE-2013-6431)
