Description
This security bulletin contains information about 5 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3524)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform DoS attack on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due memory leak within the ipv6_renew_options() function when retrieving a new IPv6 address from a malicious DHCP server. A remote attacker can force the system to leak memory and perform denial of service attack.
2) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3619)
The vulnerability allows an attacker to perform a DoS attack.
The vulnerability exists due memory leak within the l2cap_recv_acldata() function in net/bluetooth/l2cap_core.c. An attacker with physical proximity to device can force the system to leak memory and perform denial of service attack.
3) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3628)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the brcmf_fweh_event_worker() function in drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/fweh.c. A local user can use a specially crafted device to trigger memory corruption and escalate privileges on the system.
4) Access of Uninitialized Pointer (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-42895)
The vulnerability allows an attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to unauthorized access of uninitialized pointer within the l2cap_parse_conf_req() function in net/bluetooth/l2cap_core.c. An attacker with physical proximity to the affected device can gain access to sensitive information.
5) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-42896)
The vulnerability allows an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the l2cap_connect() and l2cap_le_connect_req() function in net/bluetooth/l2cap_core.c. An attacker with physical proximity to the affected device can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.
