Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.
1) Use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm
EUVDB-ID: #VU66811
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 1.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]
CVE-ID: CVE-2020-36516
CWE-ID:
CWE-327 - Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) or MitM attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to an error in the mixed IPID assignment method with the hash-based IPID assignment policy in Linux kernel. A remote attacker can inject data into a victim's TCP session or terminate that session.
MitigationUpdate the affected package the Linux Kernel (Live Patch 29 for SLE 15 SP2) to the latest version.

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.
2) Integer overflow
EUVDB-ID: #VU63633
Risk: Low
CVSSv4.0: 5.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]
CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1116
CWE-ID:
CWE-190 - Integer overflow
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a local user to execute code with elevated privileges.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in the io_uring subsystem in the Linux kernel. A local user can trigger integer overflow, cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
MitigationUpdate the affected package the Linux Kernel (Live Patch 29 for SLE 15 SP2) to the latest version.
