Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
1) Memory leak
EUVDB-ID: #VU64079
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 5.1 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1012
CWE-ID:
CWE-401 - Missing release of memory after effective lifetime
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient randomization in the net/ipv4/tcp.c when calculating port offsets in Linux kernel cause by small table perturb size. A remote attacker can cause memory leak and gain access to sensitive information.
MitigationInstall updates from vendor's website.

3) Use-after-free
EUVDB-ID: #VU64668
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32250
CWE-ID:
CWE-416 - Use After Free
Exploit availability: Yes
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free incorrect NFT_STATEFUL_EXPR in net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c in Linux kernel. A local user with ability to create user/net namespaces can execute arbitrary code with root privileges.
