Description
This security bulletin contains information about 15 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Code Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-23358)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
2) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-0466)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to unspecified error, related to I/O subsystem in kernel. A local user can elevated privileges on the system.
3) Race condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-15586)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a race condition in some net/http servers, as demonstrated by the httputil.ReverseProxy Handler. A remote attacker can exploit the race and cause a denial of service condition on the target system.
4) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-16845)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop in "ReadUvarint" and "ReadVarint" in "encoding/binary". A remote attacker can consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.
5) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-27152)
The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop ioapic_lazy_update_eoi in arch/x86/kvm/ioapic.c in the Linux kernel. A local user can consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.
6) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-28362)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in a number of math/big.Int methods (Div, Exp, DivMod, Quo, Rem, QuoRem, Mod, ModInverse, ModSqrt, Jacobi, and GCD). A remote attacker can pass large input data to the application, specifically as divisor or modulo argument larger than 3168 bits (on 32-bit architectures) or 6336 bits (on 64-bit architectures).
7) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-28374)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to perform directory traversal attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences in drivers/target/target_core_xcopy.c in the Linux kernel. A remote user with access to iSCSI LUN can send a specially crafted XCOPY request and read or write arbitrary files on the system.
8) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3347)
The vulnerability allows a local user to elevate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error when handling PI futexes. A local user can run a specially crafted program to trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
9) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3449)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error when processing TLSv1.2 renegotiations. A remote attacker can send a maliciously crafted renegotiation ClientHello message, which omits the signature_algorithms extension but includes a signature_algorithms_cert extension, trigger a NULL pointer dereference error and crash the server.10) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3450)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to an error in implementation of the X509_V_FLAG_X509_STRICT flag allows an attacker to overwrite a valid CA certificate using any non-CA certificate in the chain. As a result, a remote attacker can perform MitM attack.
11) Use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-20305)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.
A flaw was found in Nettle in versions before 3.7.2, where several Nettle signature verification functions (GOST DSA, EDDSA & ECDSA) result in the Elliptic Curve Cryptography point (ECC) multiply function being called with out-of-range scalers, possibly resulting in incorrect results. This flaw allows an attacker to force an invalid signature, causing an assertion failure or possible validation. The highest threat to this vulnerability is to confidentiality, integrity, as well as system availability.
12) Improper Privilege Management (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-26708)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges.
The vulnerability exists due to improper privilege management. Multiple race conditions in the AF_VSOCK implementation are caused by wrong locking in net/vmw_vsock/af_vsock.c. The race conditions were implicitly introduced in the commits that added VSOCK multi-transport support.
13) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-27363)
The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to the show_transport_handle() shows iSCSI transport handle to non-root users. A local user can gain unauthorized access to sensitive information and use it along with another vulnerability, such as #VU51452, to escalate privileges on the system.
14) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-27364)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to iscsi_if_recv_msg() allows non-root users to connect and send commands to the Linux kernel. A local user can escalate privileges on the system.
15) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-27365)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing Netlink messages in Linux kernel through 5.11.3, as certain iSCSI data structures do not have appropriate length constraints or checks, and can exceed the PAGE_SIZE value. A local unprivileged user can send a Netlink message that is associated with iSCSI, and has a length up to the maximum length of a Netlink message, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the system with elevated privileges.
