Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.

1) Use-after-free

EUVDB-ID: #VU56393

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-2021-3715

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 the "Routing decision" classifier in the Linux kernel's Traffic Control networking subsystem (route4_change() function in net/sched/cls_route.c) in the way it handled changing of classification filters. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

2) Double Free

EUVDB-ID: #VU66397

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 7.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:H/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2588

CWE-ID: CWE-415 - Double Free

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to a double free error within the network packet scheduler implementation in the route4_change() function in Linux kernel when removing all references to a route filter before freeing it. A local user can run a specially crafted program to crash the kernel or execute arbitrary code.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.
