Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.

1) Double Free

EUVDB-ID: #VU63160

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 6.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-28388

CWE-ID: CWE-415 - Double Free

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local user to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.

The vulnerability exists due to boundary error in the usb_8dev_start_xmit in drivers/net/can/usb/usb_8dev.c. A local user can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger double free error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

Q & A

Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?

No. This vulnerability can be exploited locally. The attacker should have authentication credentials and successfully authenticate on the system.

Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.

2) Double Free

EUVDB-ID: #VU63164

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 6.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-28390

CWE-ID: CWE-415 - Double Free

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local user to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.

The vulnerability exists due to boundary error in ems_usb_start_xmit in drivers/net/can/usb/ems_usb.c. A local user can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger double free error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

3) NULL pointer dereference

EUVDB-ID: #VU48896

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 5.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-1971

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error. A remote attacker can trigger denial of service conditions via the API functions TS_RESP_verify_response and TS_RESP_verify_token). If an attacker can control both items being compared then that attacker could trigger a crash. For example if the attacker can trick a client or server into checking a malicious certificate against a malicious CRL then this may occur. Note that some applications automatically download CRLs based on a URL embedded in a certificate. This checking happens prior to the signatures on the certificate and CRL being verified. OpenSSL's s_server, s_client and verify tools have support for the "-crl_download" option which implements automatic CRL downloading and this attack has been demonstrated to work against those tools. Note that an unrelated bug means that affected versions of OpenSSL cannot parse or construct correct encodings of EDIPARTYNAME. However it is possible to construct a malformed EDIPARTYNAME that OpenSSL's parser will accept and hence trigger this attack.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

Q & A

Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?

Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote non-authenticated attacker via the Internet.

Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability. However, proof of concept for this vulnerability is available.

4) Use-after-free

EUVDB-ID: #VU64434

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 6.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1652

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 use-after-free error in the bad_flp_intr() function. A local user can execute a specially-crafted program to cause a denial of service condition on the system or escalate privileges on the system.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.
