Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.

1) Use-after-free

EUVDB-ID: #VU63662

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 5.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3573

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows local user to escalate their privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free in hci_sock_bound_ioctl() function of the Linux kernel HCI subsystem triggers race condition of the call hci_unregister_dev() together with one of the calls hci_sock_blacklist_add(), hci_sock_blacklist_del(), hci_get_conn_info(), hci_get_auth_info(). A privileged local user can use this flaw to crash the system or escalate privileges on the system.

Mitigation

Update the affected package the Linux Kernel (Live Patch 22 for SLE 15 SP1) to the latest version.

2) Use-after-free

EUVDB-ID: #VU63769

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 5.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3640

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in sco_sock_sendmsg() function of the Linux kernel HCI subsystem. A privileged local user can call ioct UFFDIO_REGISTER or other way trigger race condition to escalate privileges on the system.

Mitigation

Update the affected package the Linux Kernel (Live Patch 22 for SLE 15 SP1) to the latest version.
