The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04, has kernel packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A flaw was found in the way Linux kernel KVM hypervisor     before 4.18 emulated instructions such as     sgdt/sidt/fxsave/fxrstor. It did not check current     privilege(CPL) level while emulating unprivileged     instructions. An unprivileged guest user/process could     use this flaw to potentially escalate privileges inside     guest. (CVE-2018-10853)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux Kernel where an attacker     may be able to have an uncontrolled read to kernel-     memory from within a vm guest. A race condition between     connect() and close() function may allow an attacker     using the AF_VSOCK protocol to gather a 4 byte     information leak or possibly intercept or corrupt     AF_VSOCK messages destined to other clients.
    (CVE-2018-14625)

  - drivers/infiniband/core/ucma.c in the Linux kernel     through 4.17.11 allows ucma_leave_multicast to access a     certain data structure after a cleanup step in     ucma_process_join, which allows attackers to cause a     denial of service (use-after-free). (CVE-2018-14734)

  - arch/x86/kernel/paravirt.c in the Linux kernel before     4.18.1 mishandles certain indirect calls, which makes it     easier for attackers to conduct Spectre-v2 attacks     against paravirtual guests. (CVE-2018-15594)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's NFS     implementation, all versions 3.x and all versions 4.x up     to 4.20. An attacker, who is able to mount an exported     NFS filesystem, is able to trigger a null pointer     dereference by using an invalid NFS sequence. This can     panic the machine and deny access to the NFS server. Any     outstanding disk writes to the NFS server will be lost.
    (CVE-2018-16871)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's NFS41+ subsystem.
    NFS41+ shares mounted in different network namespaces at     the same time can make bc_svc_process() use wrong back-     channel IDs and cause a use-after-free vulnerability.
    Thus a malicious container user can cause a host kernel     memory corruption and a system panic. Due to the nature     of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled     out. (CVE-2018-16884)

  - Since Linux kernel version 3.2, the mremap() syscall     performs TLB flushes after dropping pagetable locks. If     a syscall such as ftruncate() removes entries from the     pagetables of a task that is in the middle of mremap(),     a stale TLB entry can remain for a short time that     permits access to a physical page after it has been     released back to the page allocator and reused. This is     fixed in the following kernel versions: 4.9.135,     4.14.78, 4.18.16, 4.19. (CVE-2018-18281)

  - In the hidp_process_report in bluetooth, there is an     integer overflow. This could lead to an out of bounds     write with no additional execution privileges needed.
    User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
    Product: Android Versions: Android kernel Android ID:
    A-65853588 References: Upstream kernel. (CVE-2018-9363)

  - In pppol2tp_connect, there is possible memory corruption     due to a use after free. This could lead to local     escalation of privilege with System execution privileges     needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
    Product: Android. Versions: Android kernel. Android ID:
    A-38159931. (CVE-2018-9517)

  - Insufficient input validation in Kernel Mode Driver in     Intel(R) i915 Graphics for Linux before version 5.0 may     allow an authenticated user to potentially enable     escalation of privilege via local access.
    (CVE-2019-11085)

  - 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)

  - An 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)

  - fs/ext4/extents.c in the Linux kernel through 5.1.2 does     not zero out the unused memory region in the extent tree     block, which might allow local users to obtain sensitive     information by reading uninitialized data in the     filesystem. (CVE-2019-11833)

  - A heap address information leak while using     L2CAP_GET_CONF_OPT was discovered in the Linux kernel     before 5.1-rc1. (CVE-2019-3459)

  - A heap data infoleak in multiple locations including     L2CAP_PARSE_CONF_RSP was found in the Linux kernel     before 5.1-rc1. (CVE-2019-3460)

  - 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)

  - The mincore() implementation in mm/mincore.c in the     Linux kernel through 4.19.13 allowed local attackers to     observe page cache access patterns of other processes on     the same system, potentially allowing sniffing of secret     information. (Fixing this affects the output of the     fincore program.) Limited remote exploitation may be     possible, as demonstrated by latency differences in     accessing public files from an Apache HTTP Server.
    (CVE-2019-5489)

The remote Oracle Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2019-3517 advisory.

  - The stack randomization feature in the Linux kernel before 3.19.1 on 64-bit platforms uses incorrect data     types for the results of bitwise left-shift operations, which makes it easier for attackers to bypass the     ASLR protection mechanism by predicting the address of the top of the stack, related to the     randomize_stack_top function in fs/binfmt_elf.c and the stack_maxrandom_size function in     arch/x86/mm/mmap.c. (CVE-2015-1593)

  - The mincore() implementation in mm/mincore.c in the Linux kernel through 4.19.13 allowed local attackers     to observe page cache access patterns of other processes on the same system, potentially allowing sniffing     of secret information. (Fixing this affects the output of the fincore program.) Limited remote     exploitation may be possible, as demonstrated by latency differences in accessing public files from an     Apache HTTP Server. (CVE-2019-5489)

  - The KVM implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.20.5 has an Information Leak. (CVE-2019-7222)

  - 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 do_hidp_sock_ioctl function in net/bluetooth/hidp/sock.c in the Linux kernel before 5.0.15 allows a     local user to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a HIDPCONNADD command,     because a name field may not end with a '\0' character. (CVE-2019-11884)

  - A heap address information leak while using L2CAP_GET_CONF_OPT was discovered in the Linux kernel before     5.1-rc1. (CVE-2019-3459)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.19.9. The USB subsystem mishandles size checks during     the reading of an extra descriptor, related to __usb_get_extra_descriptor in drivers/usb/core/usb.c.
    (CVE-2018-20169)

  - fs/ext4/extents.c in the Linux kernel through 5.1.2 does not zero out the unused memory region in the     extent tree block, which might allow local users to obtain sensitive information by reading uninitialized     data in the filesystem. (CVE-2019-11833)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's NFS41+ subsystem. NFS41+ shares mounted in different network     namespaces at the same time can make bc_svc_process() use wrong back-channel IDs and cause a use-after-     free vulnerability. Thus a malicious container user can cause a host kernel memory corruption and a system     panic. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out. (CVE-2018-16884)

  - A heap data infoleak in multiple locations including L2CAP_PARSE_CONF_RSP was found in the Linux kernel     before 5.1-rc1. (CVE-2019-3460)

  - 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)

  - 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)

  - An out-of-bounds access issue was found in the Linux kernel, all versions through 5.3, in the way Linux     kernel's KVM hypervisor implements the Coalesced MMIO write operation. It operates on an MMIO ring buffer     'struct kvm_coalesced_mmio' object, wherein write indices 'ring->first' and 'ring->last' value could be     supplied by a host user-space process. An unprivileged host user or process with access to '/dev/kvm'     device could use this flaw to crash the host kernel, resulting in a denial of service or potentially     escalating privileges on the system. (CVE-2019-14821)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth implementation of UART, all versions kernel 3.x.x before     4.18.0 and kernel 5.x.x. An attacker with local access and write permissions to the Bluetooth hardware     could use this flaw to issue a specially crafted ioctl function call and cause the system to crash.
    (CVE-2019-10207)

  - The Bluetooth BR/EDR specification up to and including version 5.1 permits sufficiently low encryption key     length and does not prevent an attacker from influencing the key length negotiation. This allows practical     brute-force attacks (aka KNOB) that can decrypt traffic and inject arbitrary ciphertext without the     victim noticing. (CVE-2019-9506)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A heap based buffer overflow in mwifiex_uap_parse_tail_ies function     in drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/ie.c might lead to memory corruption and possibly other     consequences. (CVE-2019-10126)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.0.1. There is a memory leak in     register_queue_kobjects() in net/core/net-sysfs.c, which will cause denial of service. (CVE-2019-15916)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.19.3. crypto_report_one() and related functions in     crypto/crypto_user.c (the crypto user configuration API) do not fully initialize structures that are     copied to userspace, potentially leaking sensitive memory to user programs. NOTE: this is a CVE-2013-2547     regression but with easier exploitability because the attacker does not need a capability (however, the     system must have the CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER kconfig option). (CVE-2018-19854)

  - In the Linux kernel before 5.1.7, a device can be tracked by an attacker using the IP ID values the kernel     produces for connection-less protocols (e.g., UDP and ICMP). When such traffic is sent to multiple     destination IP addresses, it is possible to obtain hash collisions (of indices to the counter array) and     thereby obtain the hashing key (via enumeration). An attack may be conducted by hosting a crafted web page     that uses WebRTC or gQUIC to force UDP traffic to attacker-controlled IP addresses. (CVE-2019-10638)

  - The SCTP socket buffer used by a userspace application is not accounted by the cgroups subsystem. An     attacker can use this flaw to cause a denial of service attack. Kernel 3.10.x and 4.18.x branches are     believed to be vulnerable. (CVE-2019-3874)

  - In arch/x86/lib/insn-eval.c in the Linux kernel before 5.1.9, there is a use-after-free for access to an     LDT entry because of a race condition between modify_ldt() and a #BR exception for an MPX bounds     violation. (CVE-2019-13233)

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

The remote Oracle Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2019-2029 advisory.

  - arch/x86/kernel/paravirt.c in the Linux kernel before 4.18.1 mishandles certain indirect calls, which     makes it easier for attackers to conduct Spectre-v2 attacks against paravirtual guests. (CVE-2018-15594)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.18.6. An information leak in cdrom_ioctl_drive_status     in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c could be used by local attackers to read kernel memory because a cast from     unsigned long to int interferes with bounds checking. This is similar to CVE-2018-10940. (CVE-2018-16658)

  - drivers/infiniband/core/ucma.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.11 allows ucma_leave_multicast to access a     certain data structure after a cleanup step in ucma_process_join, which allows attackers to cause a denial     of service (use-after-free). (CVE-2018-14734)

  - An issue was discovered in the fd_locked_ioctl function in drivers/block/floppy.c in the Linux kernel     through 4.15.7. The floppy driver will copy a kernel pointer to user memory in response to the FDGETPRM     ioctl. An attacker can send the FDGETPRM ioctl and use the obtained kernel pointer to discover the     location of kernel code and data and bypass kernel security protections such as KASLR. (CVE-2018-7755)

  - An issue was discovered in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_attr_leaf.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3. An OOPS may     occur for a corrupted xfs image after xfs_da_shrink_inode() is called with a NULL bp. (CVE-2018-13094)

  - In the hidp_process_report in bluetooth, there is an integer overflow. This could lead to an out of bounds     write with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
    Product: Android Versions: Android kernel Android ID: A-65853588 References: Upstream kernel.
    (CVE-2018-9363)

  - In hid_debug_events_read of drivers/hid/hid-debug.c, there is a possible out of bounds write due to a     missing bounds check. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges     needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Product: Android Versions: Android kernel Android     ID: A-71361580. (CVE-2018-9516)

  - The mincore() implementation in mm/mincore.c in the Linux kernel through 4.19.13 allowed local attackers     to observe page cache access patterns of other processes on the same system, potentially allowing sniffing     of secret information. (Fixing this affects the output of the fincore program.) Limited remote     exploitation may be possible, as demonstrated by latency differences in accessing public files from an     Apache HTTP Server. (CVE-2019-5489)

  - The alarm_timer_nsleep function in kernel/time/alarmtimer.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3 has an     integer overflow via a large relative timeout because ktime_add_safe is not used. (CVE-2018-13053)

  - The KVM implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.20.5 has an Information Leak. (CVE-2019-7222)

  - An 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)

  - A heap address information leak while using L2CAP_GET_CONF_OPT was discovered in the Linux kernel before     5.1-rc1. (CVE-2019-3459)

  - fs/ext4/extents.c in the Linux kernel through 5.1.2 does not zero out the unused memory region in the     extent tree block, which might allow local users to obtain sensitive information by reading uninitialized     data in the filesystem. (CVE-2019-11833)

  - Memory leak in the hwsim_new_radio_nl function in drivers/net/wireless/mac80211_hwsim.c in the Linux     kernel through 4.15.9 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering     an out-of-array error case. (CVE-2018-8087)

  - In pppol2tp_connect, there is possible memory corruption due to a use after free. This could lead to local     escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for     exploitation. Product: Android. Versions: Android kernel. Android ID: A-38159931. (CVE-2018-9517)

  - A flaw was found in the way Linux kernel KVM hypervisor before 4.18 emulated instructions such as     sgdt/sidt/fxsave/fxrstor. It did not check current privilege(CPL) level while emulating unprivileged     instructions. An unprivileged guest user/process could use this flaw to potentially escalate privileges     inside guest. (CVE-2018-10853)

  - An issue was discovered in fs/xfs/xfs_icache.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3. There is a NULL pointer     dereference and panic in lookup_slow() on a NULL inode->i_ops pointer when doing pathwalks on a corrupted     xfs image. This occurs because of a lack of proper validation that cached inodes are free during     allocation. (CVE-2018-13093)

  - An issue was discovered in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_inode_buf.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3. A denial of     service (memory corruption and BUG) can occur for a corrupted xfs image upon encountering an inode that is     in extent format, but has more extents than fit in the inode fork. (CVE-2018-13095)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux Kernel where an attacker may be able to have an uncontrolled read to kernel-     memory from within a vm guest. A race condition between connect() and close() function may allow an     attacker using the AF_VSOCK protocol to gather a 4 byte information leak or possibly intercept or corrupt     AF_VSOCK messages destined to other clients. (CVE-2018-14625)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel that allows the userspace to call memcpy_fromiovecend() and similar     functions with a zero offset and buffer length which causes the read beyond the buffer boundaries, in     certain cases causing a memory access fault and a system halt by accessing invalid memory address. This     issue only affects kernel version 3.10.x as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. (CVE-2018-16885)

  - Since Linux kernel version 3.2, the mremap() syscall performs TLB flushes after dropping pagetable locks.
    If a syscall such as ftruncate() removes entries from the pagetables of a task that is in the middle of     mremap(), a stale TLB entry can remain for a short time that permits access to a physical page after it     has been released back to the page allocator and reused. This is fixed in the following kernel versions:
    4.9.135, 4.14.78, 4.18.16, 4.19. (CVE-2018-18281)

  - A heap data infoleak in multiple locations including L2CAP_PARSE_CONF_RSP was found in the Linux kernel     before 5.1-rc1. (CVE-2019-3460)

  - 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)

  - 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)

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 :

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel where the coredump     implementation does not use locking or other mechanisms     to prevent vma layout or vma flags changes while it     runs. This allows local users to obtain sensitive     information, cause a denial of service (DoS), or     possibly have unspecified other impact by triggering a     race condition with mmget_not_zero or get_task_mm     calls.(CVE-2019-11599)

  - 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)

  - A race condition in perf_event_open() allows local     attackers to leak sensitive data from setuid programs.
    As no relevant locks (in particular the     cred_guard_mutex) are held during the     ptrace_may_access() call, it is possible for the     specified target task to perform an execve() syscall     with setuid execution before perf_event_alloc()     actually attaches to it, allowing an attacker to bypass     the ptrace_may_access() check and the     perf_event_exit_task(current) call that is performed in     install_exec_creds() during privileged execve()     calls.(CVE-2019-3901)

  - The atyfb_ioctl function in     drivers/video/fbdev/aty/atyfb_base.c in the Linux     kernel through 4.12.10 does not initialize a certain     data structure, which allows local users to obtain     sensitive information from kernel stack memory by     reading locations associated with padding     bytes.(CVE-2017-14156)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ext4 filesystem     code. A use-after-free is possible in     ext4_ext_remove_space() function when mounting and     operating a crafted ext4 image.(CVE-2018-10876)

  - A flaw was found in the implementation of the 'fill     buffer', a mechanism used by modern CPUs when a     cache-miss is made on L1 CPU cache. If an attacker can     generate a load operation that would create a page     fault, the execution will continue speculatively with     incorrect data from the fill buffer while the data is     fetched from higher level caches. This response time     can be measured to infer data in the fill buffer.
    (CVE-2018-12130)

  - Modern Intel microprocessors implement hardware-level     micro-optimizations to improve the performance of     writing data back to CPU caches. The write operation is     split into STA (STore Address) and STD (STore Data)     sub-operations. These sub-operations allow the     processor to hand-off address generation logic into     these sub-operations for optimized writes. Both of     these sub-operations write to a shared distributed     processor structure called the 'processor store     buffer'. As a result, an unprivileged attacker could     use this flaw to read private data resident within the     CPU's processor store buffer. (CVE-2018-12126)

  - Microprocessors use a aEUR~load portaEURtm subcomponent to     perform load operations from memory or IO. During a     load operation, the load port receives data from the     memory or IO subsystem and then provides the data to     the CPU registers and operations in the CPUaEURtms     pipelines. Stale load operations results are stored in     the 'load port' table until overwritten by newer     operations. Certain load-port operations triggered by     an attacker can be used to reveal data about previous     stale requests leaking data back to the attacker via a     timing side-channel. (CVE-2018-12127)

  - Uncacheable memory on some microprocessors utilizing     speculative execution may allow an authenticated user     to potentially enable information disclosure via a side     channel with local access. (CVE-2019-11091)
