Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service, information leak or data loss.

  - CVE-2013-4312, CVE-2016-2847     Tetsuo Handa discovered that users can use pipes queued     on local (Unix) sockets to allocate an unfair share of     kernel memory, leading to denial-of-service (resource     exhaustion).

  This issue was previously mitigated for the stable suite by limiting   the total number of files queued by each user on local sockets. The   new kernel version in both suites includes that mitigation plus   limits on the total size of pipe buffers allocated for each user.

  - CVE-2015-7566     Ralf Spenneberg of OpenSource Security reported that the     visor driver crashes when a specially crafted USB device     without bulk-out endpoint is detected.

  - CVE-2015-8767     An SCTP denial-of-service was discovered which can be     triggered by a local attacker during a heartbeat timeout     event after the 4-way handshake.

  - CVE-2015-8785     It was discovered that local users permitted to write to     a file on a FUSE filesystem could cause a denial of     service (unkillable loop in the kernel).

  - CVE-2015-8812     A flaw was found in the iw_cxgb3 Infiniband driver.
    Whenever it could not send a packet because the network     was congested, it would free the packet buffer but later     attempt to send the packet again. This use-after-free     could result in a denial of service (crash or hang),     data loss or privilege escalation.

  - CVE-2015-8816     A use-after-free vulnerability was discovered in the USB     hub driver. This may be used by a physically present     user for privilege escalation.

  - CVE-2015-8830     Ben Hawkes of Google Project Zero reported that the AIO     interface permitted reading or writing 2 GiB of data or     more in a single chunk, which could lead to an integer     overflow when applied to certain filesystems, socket or     device types. The full security impact has not been     evaluated.

  - CVE-2016-0723     A use-after-free vulnerability was discovered in the     TIOCGETD ioctl. A local attacker could use this flaw for     denial-of-service.

  - CVE-2016-0774     It was found that the fix for CVE-2015-1805 in kernel     versions older than Linux 3.16 did not correctly handle     the case of a partially failed atomic read. A local,     unprivileged user could use this flaw to crash the     system or leak kernel memory to user space.

  - CVE-2016-2069     Andy Lutomirski discovered a race condition in flushing     of the TLB when switching tasks on an x86 system. On an     SMP system this could possibly lead to a crash,     information leak or privilege escalation.

  - CVE-2016-2384     Andrey Konovalov found that a crafted USB MIDI device     with an invalid USB descriptor could trigger a     double-free. This may be used by a physically present     user for privilege escalation.

  - CVE-2016-2543     Dmitry Vyukov found that the core sound sequencer driver     (snd-seq) lacked a necessary check for a NULL pointer,     allowing a user with access to a sound sequencer device     to cause a denial-of service (crash).

  - CVE-2016-2544, CVE-2016-2546, CVE-2016-2547,     CVE-2016-2548

    Dmitry Vyukov found various race conditions in the sound     subsystem (ALSA)'s management of timers. A user with     access to sound devices could use these to cause a     denial-of-service (crash or hang) or possibly for     privilege escalation.

  - CVE-2016-2545     Dmitry Vyukov found a flaw in list manipulation in the     sound subsystem (ALSA)'s management of timers. A user     with access to sound devices could use this to cause a     denial-of-service (crash or hang) or possibly for     privilege escalation.

  - CVE-2016-2549     Dmitry Vyukov found a potential deadlock in the sound     subsystem (ALSA)'s use of high resolution timers. A user     with access to sound devices could use this to cause a     denial-of-service (hang).

  - CVE-2016-2550     The original mitigation of CVE-2013-4312, limiting the     total number of files a user could queue on local     sockets, was flawed. A user given a local socket opened     by another user, for example through the systemd socket     activation mechanism, could make use of the other user's     quota, again leading to a denial-of-service (resource     exhaustion). This is fixed by accounting queued files to     the sender rather than the socket opener.

It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly enforce rlimits for file descriptors sent over UNIX domain sockets. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2013-4312)

It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not keep accurate track of pipe buffer details when error conditions occurred, due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2015-1805. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code with administrative privileges. (CVE-2016-0774)

Zach Riggle discovered that the Linux kernel's list poison feature did not take into account the mmap_min_addr value. A local attacker could use this to bypass the kernel's poison-pointer protection mechanism while attempting to exploit an existing kernel vulnerability.
(CVE-2016-0821)

According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - In the Linux kernel through 4.19, a use-after-free can     occur due to a race condition between fanout_add from     setsockopt and bind on an AF_PACKET socket. This issue     exists because of the     15fe076edea787807a7cdc168df832544b58eba6 incomplete fix     for a race condition. The code mishandles a certain     multithreaded case involving a packet_do_bind     unregister action followed by a packet_notifier     register action. Later, packet_release operates on only     one of the two applicable linked lists. The attacker     can achieve Program Counter control.(CVE-2018-18559i1/4%0

  - The acpi_ns_terminate() function in     drivers/acpi/acpica/nsutils.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.12 does not flush the operand cache and causes     a kernel stack dump. A local users could obtain     sensitive information from kernel memory and bypass the     KASLR protection mechanism (in the kernel through 4.9)     via a crafted ACPI table.(CVE-2017-11472i1/4%0

  - Race condition in net/packet/af_packet.c in the Linux     kernel allows local users to cause a denial of service     (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other     impact via a multithreaded application that makes     PACKET_FANOUT setsockopt system calls.(CVE-2017-6346i1/4%0

  - Multiple race conditions in ipc/shm.c in the Linux     kernel before 3.12.2 allow local users to cause a     denial of service (use-after-free and system crash) or     possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted     application that uses shmctl IPC_RMID operations in     conjunction with other shm system     calls.(CVE-2013-7026i1/4%0

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel. A NULL     pointer dereference and panic in hfsplus_lookup() in     the fs/hfsplus/dir.c function can occur 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-2018-14617i1/4%0

  - The treo_attach function in drivers/usb/serial/visor.c     in the Linux kernel before 4.5 allows physically     proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL     pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact by inserting a USB device that     lacks a (1) bulk-in or (2) interrupt-in     endpoint.(CVE-2016-2782i1/4%0

  - An information-exposure flaw was found in the Linux     kernel where the pcpu_embed_first_chunk() function in     mm/percpu.c allows local users to obtain kernel-object     address information by reading the kernel log (dmesg).
    However, this address is not static and cannot be used     to commit a further attack.(CVE-2018-5995i1/4%0

  - Buffer overflow in net/ceph/auth_x.c in Ceph, as used     in the Linux kernel before 3.16.3, allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (memory     corruption and panic) or possibly have unspecified     other impact via a long unencrypted auth     ticket.(CVE-2014-6416i1/4%0

  - It was found that the Linux kernel's ptrace subsystem     allowed a traced process' instruction pointer to be set     to a non-canonical memory address without forcing the     non-sysret code path when returning to user space. A     local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to crash     the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges     on the system.Note: The CVE-2014-4699 issue only     affected systems using an Intel CPU.(CVE-2014-4699i1/4%0

  - The snd_compr_tstamp function in     sound/core/compress_offload.c in the Linux kernel     through 4.7, as used in Android before 2016-08-05 on     Nexus 5 and 7 (2013) devices, does not properly     initialize a timestamp data structure, which allows     attackers to obtain sensitive information via a crafted     application, aka Android internal bug 28770164 and     Qualcomm internal bug CR568717.(CVE-2014-9892i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's ext4     file system handled the 'page size i1/4z block size'     condition when the fallocate zero range functionality     was used. A local attacker could use this flaw to crash     the system.(CVE-2015-0275i1/4%0

  - An information leak flaw was found in the way the Linux     kernel's ISO9660 file system implementation accessed     data on an ISO9660 image with RockRidge Extension     Reference (ER) records. An attacker with physical     access to the system could use this flaw to disclose up     to 255 bytes of kernel memory.(CVE-2014-9584i1/4%0

  - The pivot_root implementation in fs/namespace.c in the     Linux kernel through 3.17 does not properly interact     with certain locations of a chroot directory, which     allows local users to cause a denial of service     (mount-tree loop) via . (dot) values in both arguments     to the pivot_root system call.(CVE-2014-7970i1/4%0

  - arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux kernel before     4.8.12 does not properly initialize Code Segment (CS)     in certain error cases, which allows local users to     obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory     via a crafted application.(CVE-2016-9756i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel where the     swiotlb_print_info() function in lib/swiotlb.c allows     local users to obtain some kernel address information     by reading the kernel log (dmesg). This address is not     useful to commit a further attack.(CVE-2018-5953i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's file     system implementation handled rename operations in     which the source was inside and the destination was     outside of a bind mount. A privileged user inside a     container could use this flaw to escape the bind mount     and, potentially, escalate their privileges on the     system.(CVE-2015-2925i1/4%0

  - A use-after-free fault in the Linux kernel's usbtv     driver could allow an attacker to cause a denial of     service (system crash), or have unspecified other     impacts, by triggering failure of audio registration of     USB hardware using the usbtv kernel     module.(CVE-2017-17975i1/4%0

  - The mm subsystem in the Linux kernel through 4.10.10     does not properly enforce the CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM     protection mechanism, which allows local users to read     or write to kernel memory locations in the first     megabyte (and bypass slab-allocation access     restrictions) via an application that opens the     /dev/mem file, related to arch/x86/mm/init.c and     drivers/char/mem.c.(CVE-2017-7889i1/4%0

  - A flaw was discovered in the way the kernel allows     stackable filesystems to overlay. A local attacker who     is able to mount filesystems can abuse this flaw to     escalate privileges.(CVE-2014-9922i1/4%0

  - 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-2016-2548i1/4%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)
