    Java SE Embedded: 8u281; Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition: 19.3.5, 20.3.1.2 and 21.0.0.2. Difficult to     exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to     compromise Java SE, Java SE Embedded, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. Successful attacks require human     interaction from a person other than the attacker. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in     unauthorized creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Java SE, Java SE Embedded,     Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition accessible data. Note: This vulnerability applies to Java deployments     that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code that comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox     for security. (CVE-2021-2163)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.11.3. A kernel pointer leak can be used to determine     the address of the iscsi_transport structure. When an iSCSI transport is registered with the iSCSI     subsystem, the transport's handle is available to unprivileged users via the sysfs file system, at     /sys/class/iscsi_transport/$TRANSPORT_NAME/handle. When read, the show_transport_handle function (in     drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c) is called, which leaks the handle. This handle is actually the     pointer to an iscsi_transport struct in the kernel module's global variables. (CVE-2021-27363)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.11.3. drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c is     adversely affected by the ability of an unprivileged user to craft Netlink messages. (CVE-2021-27364)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The remote Oracle Linux 6 / 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2021-9002 advisory.

  - A heap-based buffer overflow was discovered in the Linux kernel, all versions 3.x.x and 4.x.x before     4.18.0, in Marvell WiFi chip driver. The flaw could occur when the station attempts a connection     negotiation during the handling of the remote devices country settings. This could allow the remote device     to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2019-14895)

  - A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel's SELinux subsystem in versions before 5.7.
    This flaw occurs while importing the Commercial IP Security Option (CIPSO) protocol's category bitmap into     the SELinux extensible bitmap via the' ebitmap_netlbl_import' routine. While processing the CIPSO     restricted bitmap tag in the 'cipso_v4_parsetag_rbm' routine, it sets the security attribute to indicate     that the category bitmap is present, even if it has not been allocated. This issue leads to a NULL pointer     dereference issue while importing the same category bitmap into SELinux. This flaw allows a remote network     user to crash the system kernel, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2020-10711)

  - usb_sg_cancel in drivers/usb/core/message.c in the Linux kernel before 5.6.8 has a use-after-free because     a transfer occurs without a reference, aka CID-056ad39ee925. (CVE-2020-12464)

  - The __mptctl_ioctl function in drivers/message/fusion/mptctl.c in the Linux kernel before 5.4.14 allows     local users to hold an incorrect lock during the ioctl operation and trigger a race condition, i.e., a     double fetch vulnerability, aka CID-28d76df18f0a. NOTE: the vendor states The security impact of this     bug is not as bad as it could have been because these operations are all privileged and root already has     enormous destructive power. (CVE-2020-12652)

  - In the Linux kernel 5.0.21, mounting a crafted ext4 filesystem image, performing some operations, and     unmounting can lead to a use-after-free in ext4_put_super in fs/ext4/super.c, related to dump_orphan_list     in fs/ext4/super.c. (CVE-2019-19447)

  - ext4_empty_dir in fs/ext4/namei.c in the Linux kernel through 5.3.12 allows a NULL pointer dereference     because ext4_read_dirblock(inode,0,DIRENT_HTREE) can be zero. (CVE-2019-19037)

  - An out-of-bounds memory write flaw was found in how the Linux kernels Voice Over IP H.323 connection     tracking functionality handled connections on ipv6 port 1720. This flaw allows an unauthenticated remote     user to crash the system, causing a denial of service. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to     confidentiality, integrity, as well as system availability. (CVE-2020-14305)

  - A flaw was found in Linux Kernel because access to the global variable fg_console is not properly     synchronized leading to a use after free in con_font_op. (CVE-2020-25668)

  - A buffer over-read (at the framebuffer layer) in the fbcon code in the Linux kernel before 5.8.15 could be     used by local attackers to read kernel memory, aka CID-6735b4632def. (CVE-2020-28915)

  - A slab-out-of-bounds read in fbcon in the Linux kernel before 5.9.7 could be used by local attackers to     read privileged information or potentially crash the kernel, aka CID-3c4e0dff2095. This occurs because     KD_FONT_OP_COPY in drivers/tty/vt/vt.c can be used for manipulations such as font height. (CVE-2020-28974)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.2.6. On NUMA systems, the Linux fair scheduler has a     use-after-free in show_numa_stats() because NUMA fault statistics are inappropriately freed, aka     CID-16d51a590a8c. (CVE-2019-20934)

  - Use-after-free vulnerability in fs/block_dev.c in the Linux kernel before 5.8 allows local users to gain     privileges or cause a denial of service by leveraging improper access to a certain error field.
    (CVE-2020-15436)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A use-after-free memory flaw was found in the perf subsystem     allowing a local attacker with permission to monitor perf events to corrupt memory and possibly escalate     privileges. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as     system availability. (CVE-2020-14351)

  - A flaw in ICMP packets in the Linux kernel may allow an attacker to quickly scan open UDP ports. This flaw     allows an off-path remote attacker to effectively bypass source port UDP randomization. Software that     relies on UDP source port randomization are indirectly affected as well on the Linux Based Products     (RUGGEDCOM RM1224: All versions between v5.0 and v6.4, SCALANCE M-800: All versions between v5.0 and v6.4,     SCALANCE S615: All versions between v5.0 and v6.4, SCALANCE SC-600: All versions prior to v2.1.3, SCALANCE     W1750D: v8.3.0.1, v8.6.0, and v8.7.0, SIMATIC Cloud Connect 7: All versions, SIMATIC MV500 Family: All     versions, SIMATIC NET CP 1243-1 (incl.

  - An issue was discovered in romfs_dev_read in     fs/romfs/storage.c in the Linux kernel before 5.8.4.
    Uninitialized memory leaks to userspace, aka     CID-bcf85fcedfdd.(CVE-2020-29371)

  - Use-after-free vulnerability in fs/block_dev.c in the     Linux kernel before 5.8 allows local users to gain     privileges or cause a denial of service by leveraging     improper access to a certain error     field.(CVE-2020-15436)

  - The Linux kernel before version 5.8 is vulnerable to a     NULL pointer dereference in     drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_core.c:serial8250_isa_init
    _ports() that allows local users to cause a denial of     service by using the p->serial_in pointer which     uninitialized.(CVE-2020-15437)

  - An issue was discovered in kmem_cache_alloc_bulk in     mm/slub.c in the Linux kernel before 5.5.11. The     slowpath lacks the required TID increment, aka     CID-fd4d9c7d0c71.(CVE-2020-29370)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A use-after-free     memory flaw was found in the perf subsystem allowing a     local attacker with permission to monitor perf events     to corrupt memory and possibly escalate privileges. The     highest threat from this vulnerability is to data     confidentiality and integrity as well as system     availability.(CVE-2020-14351)

  - A buffer over-read (at the framebuffer layer) in the     fbcon code in the Linux kernel before 5.8.15 could be     used by local attackers to read kernel memory, aka     CID-6735b4632def.(CVE-2020-28915)

  - A slab-out-of-bounds read in fbcon in the Linux kernel     before 5.9.7 could be used by local attackers to read     privileged information or potentially crash the kernel,     aka CID-3c4e0dff2095. This occurs because     KD_FONT_OP_COPY in drivers/tty/vt/vt.c can be used for     manipulations such as font height.(CVE-2020-28974)

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

  - 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)

  - A flaw was found in the HDLC_PPP module of the Linux     kernel in versions before 5.9-rc7. Memory corruption     and a read overflow is caused by improper input     validation in the ppp_cp_parse_cr function which can     cause the system to crash or cause a denial of service.
    The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data     confidentiality and integrity as well as system     availability.(CVE-2020-25643)

  - 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. The privileged user 'root' with CAP_NET_ADMIN     can create a CAN frame modification rule that makes the     data length code a higher value than the available CAN     frame data size. In combination with a configured     checksum calculation where the result is stored     relatively to the end of the data (e.g.
    cgw_csum_xor_rel) the tail of the skb (e.g. frag_list     pointer in skb_shared_info) can be rewritten which     finally can cause a system crash. 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.(CVE-2019-3701)

  - In the Android kernel in Pixel C USB monitor driver     there is a possible OOB 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.(CVE-2019-9456)

  - A pivot_root race condition in fs/ namespace.c in the     Linux kernel 4.4.x before 4.4.221, 4.9.x before     4.9.221, 4.14.x before 4.14.178, 4.19.x before     4.19.119, and 5.x before 5.3 allows local users to     cause a denial of service (panic) by corrupting a     mountpoint reference counter.(CVE-2020-12114)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in versions before     5.9-rc7. Traffic between two Geneve endpoints may be     unencrypted when IPsec is configured to encrypt traffic     for the specific UDP port used by the GENEVE tunnel     allowing anyone between the two endpoints to read the     traffic unencrypted. The main threat from this     vulnerability is to data     confidentiality.(CVE-2020-25645)

  - In kbd_keycode of keyboard.c, there is a possible out     of bounds write due to a missing bounds check. 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-144161459(CVE-2020-0431)

  - In blk_mq_queue_tag_busy_iter of blk-mq-tag.c, there is     a possible use after free due to improper locking. 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-151939299(CVE-2020-0433)

  - In the Linux kernel through 5.8.7, local attackers able     to inject conntrack netlink configuration could     overflow a local buffer, causing crashes or triggering     use of incorrect protocol numbers in     ctnetlink_parse_tuple_filter in net/ netfilter/     nf_conntrack_netlink.c, aka     CID-1cc5ef91d2ff.(CVE-2020-25211)

  - A memory out-of-bounds read flaw was found in the Linux     kernel before 5.9-rc2 with the ext3/ext4 file system,     in the way it accesses a directory with broken     indexing. This flaw allows a local user to crash the     system if the directory exists. The highest threat from     this vulnerability is to system     availability.(CVE-2020-14314)

  - A TOCTOU mismatch in the NFS client code in the Linux     kernel before 5.8.3 could be used by local attackers to     corrupt memory or possibly have unspecified other     impact because a size check is in fs/ nfs/ nfs4proc.c     instead of fs/ nfs/ nfs4xdr.c, aka     CID-b4487b935452.(CVE-2020-25212)

  - The rbd block device driver in drivers/block/rbd.c in     the Linux kernel through 5.8.9 used incomplete     permission checking for access to rbd devices, which     could be leveraged by local attackers to map or unmap     rbd block devices, aka     CID-f44d04e696fe.(CVE-2020-25284)

  - A race condition between hugetlb sysctl handlers in     mm/hugetlb.c in the Linux kernel before 5.8.8 could be     used by local attackers to corrupt memory, cause a NULL     pointer dereference, or possibly have unspecified other     impact, aka CID-17743798d812.(CVE-2020-25285)

  - 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)
