SB2023110354 - openEuler 22.03 LTS SP2 update for kernel

Description

This security bulletin contains information about 14 secuirty vulnerabilities.

1) Race condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-44033)

The vulnerability allows an attacker to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a race condition in drivers/char/pcmcia/cm4040_cs.c in Linux kernel. An attacker with physical access to device can remove the PCMCIA device while calling open() to trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.

2) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-45919)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in drivers/media/dvb-core/dvb_ca_en50221.c in Linux kernel. A local user can trigger a race condition and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.

3) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-2898)

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error within the f2fs_write_end_io() function in fs/f2fs/data.c. A local user can pass specially crafted data to the system and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

4) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-31083)

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error within the hci_uart_tty_ioctl() function in drivers/bluetooth/hci_ldisc.c. A local user can pass specially crafted data to the system and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

5) Division by zero (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-31085)

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a divide by zero error within the drivers/mtd/ubi/cdev.c driver. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

6) Race condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-32254)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a race condition within fs/ksmbd/mgmt/tree_connect.c in ksmbd in Linux kernel when processing SMB2_TREE_DISCONNECT commands. A remote attacker can trigger a use-after-free error using concurrent smb2 tree disconnect requests and execute arbitrary code on the system.

7) Deadlock (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-34324)

The vulnerability allows a malicious guest to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to improper event handling in Linux kernel. A malicious guest can disable paravirtualized device to cause a deadlock in a backend domain (other than dom0).

8) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-39189)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the nfnl_osf_add_callback() function in Linux kernel Netfilter. A local user with CAP_NET_ADMIN capability can trigger an out-of-bounds read error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.

9) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-39192)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the the u32_match_it() function in Netfilter subsystem in Linux kernel. A local user can trigger an out-of-bounds read error and gain access to sensitive information.

10) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-39193)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the sctp_mt_check() function in Netfilter subsystem in Linux kernel. A local user with CAP_NET_ADMIN capability can trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.

11) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-39194)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the XFRM subsystem in Linux kernel. A local user with CAP_NET_ADMIN capability can trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.

12) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-42754)

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error within the ipv4_send_dest_unreach() function in net/ipv4/route.c. A local user with CAP_NET_ADMIN permissions can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

13) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-45871)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the IGB driver in drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb/igb_main.c when handling frames larger than the MTU. A remote attacker can send specially crafted traffic to the system, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.

14) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-5717)

The vulnerability local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the Linux kernel's Linux Kernel Performance Events (perf) component. A local user can trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
