The remote Oracle Linux 6 / 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2019-4644 advisory.

  - The ecryptfs_privileged_open function in fs/ecryptfs/kthread.c in the Linux kernel before 4.6.3 allows     local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (stack memory consumption) via vectors     involving crafted mmap calls for /proc pathnames, leading to recursive pagefault handling. (CVE-2016-1583)

  - The qmi_wwan_bind function in drivers/net/usb/qmi_wwan.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.11 allows local     users to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero error and system crash) or possibly have unspecified     other impact via a crafted USB device. (CVE-2017-16650)

  - A information disclosure vulnerability in the Upstream kernel encrypted-keys. Product: Android. Versions:
    Android kernel. Android ID: A-70526974. (CVE-2017-13305)

  - The function hso_get_config_data in drivers/net/usb/hso.c in the Linux kernel through 4.19.8 reads if_num     from the USB device (as a u8) and uses it to index a small array, resulting in an object out-of-bounds     (OOB) read that potentially allows arbitrary read in the kernel address space. (CVE-2018-19985)

  - The Linux kernel before 4.8 allows local users to bypass ASLR on setuid programs (such as /bin/su) because     install_exec_creds() is called too late in load_elf_binary() in fs/binfmt_elf.c, and thus the     ptrace_may_access() check has a race condition when reading /proc/pid/stat. (CVE-2019-11190)

  - The wacom_probe function in drivers/input/tablet/wacom_sys.c in the Linux kernel before 3.17 allows     physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash)     via a crafted endpoints value in a USB device descriptor. (CVE-2016-3139)

This occurs because sk_type and protocol are     not checked in the appropriate part of the ip6_mroute_*     functions. NOTE: this affects Linux distributions that     use 4.9.x longterm kernels before     4.9.187.(CVE-2017-18509)An issue was discovered in the     Linux kernel before 4.14.11. A double free may be     caused by the function allocate_trace_buffer in the     file kernel/trace/trace.c.(CVE-2017-18595)An issue was     discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.10. There     is a NULL pointer dereference and panic in     hfsplus_lookup() in fs/hfsplus/dir.c when opening a     file (that is purportedly a hard link) in an hfs+     filesystem that has malformed catalog data, and is     mounted read-only without a metadata     directory.(CVE-2018-14617)An issue was discovered in     write_tpt_entry in drivers/infiniband/hw/cxgb4/mem.c in     the Linux kernel through 5.3.2. The cxgb4 driver is     directly calling dma_map_single (a DMA function) from a     stack variable. This could allow an attacker to trigger     a Denial of Service, exploitable if this driver is used     on an architecture for which this stack/DMA interaction     has security relevance.(CVE-2019-17075)Double free     vulnerability in the snd_usbmidi_create function in     sound/usb/midi.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5 allows     physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of     service (panic) or possibly have unspecified other     impact via vectors involving an invalid USB     descriptor.(CVE-2016-2384)fsamespace.c in the Linux     kernel through 3.16.1 does not properly restrict     clearing MNT_NODEV, MNT_NOSUID, and MNT_NOEXEC and     changing MNT_ATIME_MASK during a remount of a bind     mount, which allows local users to gain privileges,     interfere with backups and auditing on systems that had     atime enabled, or cause a denial of service (excessive     filesystem updating) on systems that had atime disabled     via a 'mount -o remount' command within a user     namespace.(CVE-2014-5207)fs/overlayfs/dir.c in the     OverlayFS filesystem implementation in the Linux kernel     before 4.6 does not properly verify the upper dentry     before proceeding with unlink and rename system-call     processing, which allows local users to cause a denial     of service (system crash) via a rename system call that     specifies a self-hardlink.(CVE-2016-6197)In the Linux     kernel before 4.1.4, a buffer overflow occurs when     checking userspace params in     drivers/media/dvb-frontends/cx24116.c. The maximum size     for a DiSEqC command is 6, according to the userspace     API. However, the code allows larger values such as     23.(CVE-2015-9289)In the Linux kernel through 5.3.2,     cfg80211_mgd_wext_giwessid in net/wireless/wext-sme.c     does not reject a long SSID IE, leading to a Buffer     Overflow.(CVE-2019-17133)Insufficient access control in     the Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi Software driver     before version 21.10 may allow an unauthenticated user     to potentially enable denial of service via adjacent     access.(CVE-2019-0136)Linux distributions that have not     patched their long-term kernels with     https://git.kernel.org/linus/a87938b2e246b81b4fb713edb3     71a9fa3c5c3c86 (committed on April 14, 2015). This     kernel vulnerability was fixed in April 2015 by commit     a87938b2e246b81b4fb713edb371a9fa3c5c3c86 (backported to     Linux 3.10.77 in May 2015), but it was not recognized     as a security threat. With     CONFIG_ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE enabled, and a     normal top-down address allocation strategy,     load_elf_binary() will attempt to map a PIE binary into     an address range immediately below mm->mmap_base.
    Unfortunately, load_elf_ binary() does not take account     of the need to allocate sufficient space for the entire     binary which means that, while the first PT_LOAD     segment is mapped below mm->mmap_base, the subsequent     PT_LOAD segment(s) end up being mapped above     mm->mmap_base into the are that is supposed to be the     'gap' between the stack and the     binary.(CVE-2017-1000253)Race condition in the     sclp_ctl_ioctl_sccb function in     drivers/s390/char/sclp_ctl.c in the Linux kernel before     4.6 allows local users to obtain sensitive information     from kernel memory by changing a certain length value,     aka a 'double fetch'     vulnerability.(CVE-2016-6130)rtl_p2p_noa_ie in drivers     et/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/ps.c in the Linux kernel     through 5.3.6 lacks a certain upper-bound check,     leading to a buffer     overflow.(CVE-2019-17666)sound/core/timer.c in the     Linux kernel through 4.6 does not initialize certain r1     data structures, which allows local users to obtain     sensitive information from kernel stack memory via     crafted use of the ALSA timer interface, related to the     (1) snd_timer_user_ccallback and (2)     snd_timer_user_tinterrupt     functions.(CVE-2016-4578)Systems with microprocessors     utilizing speculative execution and branch prediction     may allow unauthorized disclosure of information to an     attacker with local user access via a side-channel     analysis.(CVE-2017-5753)The acm_probe function in     drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c in the Linux kernel before     4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a     denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system     crash) via a USB device without both a control and a     data endpoint descriptor.(CVE-2016-3138)The     arcmsr_iop_message_xfer function in     drivers/scsi/arcmsr/arcmsr_hba.c in the Linux kernel     through 4.8.2 does not restrict a certain length field,     which allows local users to gain privileges or cause a     denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) via an     ARCMSR_MESSAGE_WRITE_WQBUFFER control     code.(CVE-2016-7425)The ati_remote2_probe function in     drivers/input/misc/ati_remote2.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to     cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and     system crash) via a crafted endpoints value in a USB     device descriptor.(CVE-2016-2185)The     create_fixed_stream_quirk function in     sound/usb/quirks.c in the snd-usb-audio driver in the     Linux kernel before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate     attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference or double free, and system crash) via a     crafted endpoints value in a USB device     descriptor.(CVE-2016-2184)The digi_port_init function     in drivers/usb/serial/digi_acceleport.c in the Linux     kernel before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate     attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and system crash) via a crafted endpoints     value in a USB device descriptor.(CVE-2016-3140)The     do_remount function in fsamespace.c in the Linux kernel     through 3.16.1 does not maintain the MNT_LOCK_READONLY     bit across a remount of a bind mount, which allows     local users to bypass an intended read-only restriction     and defeat certain sandbox protection mechanisms via a     'mount -o remount' command within a user     namespace.(CVE-2014-5206)The gtco_probe function in     drivers/input/tablet/gtco.c in the Linux kernel through     4.5.2 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a     denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system     crash) via a crafted endpoints value in a USB device     descriptor.(CVE-2016-2187)The hub_activate function in     drivers/usb/core/hub.c in the Linux kernel before 4.3.5     does not properly maintain a hub-interface data     structure, which allows physically proximate attackers     to cause a denial of service (invalid memory access and     system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact     by unplugging a USB hub device.(CVE-2015-8816)The     ims_pcu_parse_cdc_data function in     drivers/input/misc/ims-pcu.c in the Linux kernel before     4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a     denial of service (system crash) via a USB device     without both a master and a slave     interface.(CVE-2016-3689)The Linux Kernel running on     AMD64 systems will sometimes map the contents of PIE     executable, the heap or ld.so to where the stack is     mapped allowing attackers to more easily manipulate the     stack.

  - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's Stream     Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) implementation     handled duplicate Address Configuration Change Chunks     (ASCONF). A remote attacker could use either of these     flaws to crash the system.(CVE-2014-3687i1/4%0

  - A syntax vulnerability was discovered in the kernel's     ASN1.1 DER decoder, which could lead to memory     corruption or a complete local denial of service     through x509 certificate DER files. A local system user     could use a specially created key file to trigger     BUG_ON() in the public_key_verify_signature() function     (crypto/asymmetric_keys/public_key.c), to cause a     kernel panic and crash the system.(CVE-2016-2053i1/4%0

  - It was found that the Linux kernel's KVM subsystem did     not handle the VM exits gracefully for the invept     (Invalidate Translations Derived from EPT)     instructions. On hosts with an Intel processor and     invept VM exit support, an unprivileged guest user     could use these instructions to crash the     guest.(CVE-2014-3645i1/4%0

  - The packet_recvmsg function in net/packet/af_packet.c     in the Linux kernel before 3.12.4 updates a certain     length value before ensuring that an associated data     structure has been initialized, which allows local     users to obtain sensitive information from kernel     memory via a (1) recvfrom, (2) recvmmsg, or (3) recvmsg     system call.(CVE-2013-7270i1/4%0

  - The init_new_context function in     arch/x86/include/asm/mmu_context.h in the Linux kernel,     before 4.12.10, does not correctly handle errors from     LDT table allocation when forking a new process. This     could allow a local attacker to achieve a     use-after-free or possibly have unspecified other     impact by running a specially crafted     program.(CVE-2017-17053i1/4%0

  - It was found that the sanity_check_raw_super() function     in 'fs/f2fs/super.c' file in the Linux kernel before     version 4.12-rc1 does not validate the f2fs filesystem     segment count. This allows an unprivileged local user     to cause a system panic and DoS. Due to the nature of     the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled     out, although we believe it is     unlikely.(CVE-2017-10662i1/4%0

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

  - The snd_timer_interrupt function in sound/core/timer.c     in the Linux kernel before 4.4.1 does not properly     maintain a certain linked list, which allows local     users to cause a denial of service (race condition and     system crash) via a crafted ioctl call.(CVE-2016-2545)

  - sound/core/timer.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4.1     uses an incorrect type of mutex, which allows local     users to cause a denial of service (race condition,     use-after-free, and system crash) via a crafted ioctl     call.(CVE-2016-2546)

  - sound/core/timer.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4.1     employs a locking approach that does not consider slave     timer instances, which allows local users to cause a     denial of service (race condition, use-after-free, and     system crash) via a crafted ioctl call.(CVE-2016-2547)

  - sound/core/timer.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4.1     retains certain linked lists after a close or stop     action, which allows local users to cause a denial of     service (system crash) via a crafted ioctl call,     related to the (1) snd_timer_close and (2)
    _snd_timer_stop functions.(CVE-2016-2548)

  - sound/core/hrtimer.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4.1     does not prevent recursive callback access, which     allows local users to cause a denial of service     (deadlock) via a crafted ioctl call.(CVE-2016-2549)

  - A resource-exhaustion vulnerability was found in the     kernel, where an unprivileged process could allocate     and accumulate far more file descriptors than the     process' limit. A local, unauthenticated user could     exploit this flaw by sending file descriptors over a     Unix socket and then closing them to keep the process'     fd count low, thereby creating kernel-memory or     file-descriptors exhaustion (denial of     service).(CVE-2016-2550)

  - It is possible for a single process to cause an OOM     condition by filling large pipes with data that are     never read. A typical process filling 4096 pipes with 1     MB of data will use 4 GB of memory and there can be     multiple such processes, up to a     per-user-limit.(CVE-2016-2847)

  - A security flaw was found in the Linux kernel that an     attempt to move page mapped by AIO ring buffer to the     other node triggers NULL pointer dereference at     trace_writeback_dirty_page(), because     aio_fs_backing_dev_info.dev is 0.(CVE-2016-3070)

  - A security flaw was found in the Linux kernel in the     mark_source_chains() function in     'net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.c'. It is possible for a     user-supplied 'ipt_entry' structure to have a large     'next_offset' field. This field is not bounds checked     prior to writing to a counter value at the supplied     offset.(CVE-2016-3134)

  - An integer overflow vulnerability was found in the     Linux kernel in xt_alloc_table_info, which on 32-bit     systems can lead to small structure allocation and a     copy_from_user based heap corruption.(CVE-2016-3135)

  - The mct_u232_msr_to_state function in     drivers/usb/serial/mct_u232.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to     cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and     system crash) via a crafted USB device without two     interrupt-in endpoint descriptors.(CVE-2016-3136)

  - drivers/usb/serial/cypress_m8.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to     cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and     system crash) via a USB device without both an     interrupt-in and an interrupt-out endpoint descriptor,     related to the cypress_generic_port_probe and     cypress_open functions.(CVE-2016-3137)

  - The acm_probe function in drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c     in the Linux kernel before 4.5.1 allows physically     proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL     pointer dereference and system crash) via a USB device     without both a control and a data endpoint     descriptor.(CVE-2016-3138)

  - The wacom_probe function in     drivers/input/tablet/wacom_sys.c in the Linux kernel     before 3.17 allows physically proximate attackers to     cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and     system crash) via a crafted endpoints value in a USB     device descriptor.(CVE-2016-3139)

  - The digi_port_init function in     drivers/usb/serial/digi_acceleport.c in the Linux     kernel before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate     attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and system crash) via a crafted endpoints     value in a USB device descriptor.(CVE-2016-3140)

  - 'A security flaw was found in the Linux kernel's     networking subsystem that destroying the network     interface with huge number of ipv4 addresses assigned     keeps ''rtnl_lock'' spinlock for a very long time (up     to hour). This blocks many network-related operations,     including creation of new incoming ssh connections.

  - The problem is especially important for containers, as     the container owner has enough permissions to trigger     this and block a network access on a whole host,     outside the container.(CVE-2016-3156)'

  - A weakness was found in the Linux ASLR implementation.
    Any user able to running 32-bit applications in a x86     machine can disable ASLR by setting the RLIMIT_STACK     resource to unlimited.(CVE-2016-3672)

  - The ims_pcu_parse_cdc_data function in     drivers/input/misc/ims-pcu.c in the Linux kernel before     4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a     denial of service (system crash) via a USB device     without both a master and a slave     interface.(CVE-2016-3689)

  - It was found that the Linux kernel's IPv6     implementation mishandled socket options. A local     attacker could abuse concurrent access to the socket     options to escalate their privileges, or cause a denial     of service (use-after-free and system crash) via a     crafted sendmsg system call.(CVE-2016-3841)

  - The usbip_recv_xbuff function in     drivers/usb/usbip/usbip_common.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.5.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial     of service (out-of-bounds write) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a crafted length value in     a USB/IP packet.(CVE-2016-3955)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's keyring handling     code: the key_reject_and_link() function could be     forced to free an arbitrary memory block. An attacker     could use this flaw to trigger a use-after-free     condition on the system, potentially allowing for     privilege escalation.(CVE-2016-4470)

  - The proc_connectinfo() function in     'drivers/usb/core/devio.c' in the Linux kernel through     4.6 does not initialize a certain data structure, which     allows local users to obtain sensitive information from     kernel stack memory via a crafted USBDEVFS_CONNECTINFO     ioctl call. The stack object 'ci' has a total size of 8     bytes. Its last 3 bytes are padding bytes which are not     initialized and are leaked to userland.(CVE-2016-4482)

  - A flaw was found in the way certain interfaces of the     Linux kernel's Infiniband subsystem used write() as     bi-directional ioctl() replacement, which could lead to     insufficient memory security checks when being invoked     using the splice() system call. A local unprivileged     user on a system with either Infiniband hardware     present or RDMA Userspace Connection Manager Access     module explicitly loaded, could use this flaw to     escalate their privileges on the system.(CVE-2016-4565)

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP1 kernel was updated to 3.12.57 to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed :

  - CVE-2015-8812: A flaw was found in the CXGB3 kernel     driver when the network was considered congested. The     kernel would incorrectly misinterpret the congestion as     an error condition and incorrectly free/clean up the     skb. When the device would then send the skb's queued,     these structures would be referenced and may panic the     system or allow an attacker to escalate privileges in a     use-after-free scenario. (bsc#966437)

  - CVE-2015-8816: A malicious USB device could cause a     kernel crash in the USB hub driver. (bnc#968010).

  - CVE-2016-3156: Removal of ipv4 interfaces with a large     number of IP addresses was taking very long.
    (bsc#971360).

  - CVE-2015-8709: kernel/ptrace.c in the Linux kernel     mishandled uid and gid mappings, which allowed local     users to gain privileges by establishing a user     namespace, waiting for a root process to enter that     namespace with an unsafe uid or gid, and then using the     ptrace system call. NOTE: the vendor states 'there is no     kernel bug here (bnc#960561).

The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details.
