Description

This security bulletin contains information about 10 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-21255)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input within the binder_transaction_buffer_release() function in Binder subsystem in Android kernel. A local application can trigger a use-after-fee error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


2) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-2163)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in BPF verifier caused by improper marking of registers for precision tracking in certain situations. A local user can trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


3) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-32248)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error in ksmbd in Linux kernel when handling SMB2_TREE_CONNECT and SMB2_QUERY_INFO commands. A remote attacker can send  specially crafted data to the system and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


4) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3567)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the vc_screen() function in vcs_read in drivers/tty/vt/vc_screen.c. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


5) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3609)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the the Linux kernel net/sched: cls_u32 component. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


6) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3610)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the nf_tables component in Linux kernel netfilter. A local user with CAP_NET_ADMIN capability can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


7) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3611)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the qfq_change_agg() function in net/sched/sch_qfq.c within the Linux kernel net/sched: sch_qfq component. A local user trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


8) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3776)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_fw component. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


9) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-38426)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information or perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the smb2_find_context_vals() function. A remote attacker can send specially crafted data to the server, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system or perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


10) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-38428)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information or perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition in fs/ksmbd/smb2pdu.c. A remote attacker can send specially crafted data to the server, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system or perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
