3) Use-after-free

EUVDB-ID: #VU82755

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 4 [CVSS:4.0/AV:P/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2023-47233

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the brcm80211 in a brcmf_cfg80211_detach in the device unplugging (disconnect the USB by hotplug) code. An attacker with physical access to device can trigger a use-after-free error and escalate privileges on the system.

Mitigation

Update the affected package the Linux Kernel to the latest version.

9) NULL pointer dereference

EUVDB-ID: #VU85854

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 6.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2023-6356

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error within the nvmet_tcp_build_iovec() function in the Linux kernel's NVMe driver. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted TCP packets to the system and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Mitigation

Update the affected package the Linux Kernel to the latest version.

13) Improper Initialization

EUVDB-ID: #VU86579

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 1.1 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2024-0340

CWE-ID: CWE-665 - Improper Initialization

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper initialization within the vhost_new_msg() function in drivers/vhost/vhost.c in the Linux kernel vhost driver. A local user can run a specially crafted application to gain access to sensitive kernel information.

Mitigation

Update the affected package the Linux Kernel to the latest version.

EUVDB-ID: #VU86576

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-2024-0775

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 within the __ext4_remount() function in fs/ext4/super.c in ext4. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.

Mitigation

Update the affected package the Linux Kernel to the latest version.
