Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.

1) Buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU99192

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 4.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2024-49995

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to memory corruption within the bearer_name_validate() function in net/tipc/bearer.c. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Mitigation

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

2) Integer underflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU100637

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-2024-50290

CWE-ID: CWE-191 - Integer underflow

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local user to execute arbitrary code.

The vulnerability exists due to integer underflow within the cx24116_read_snr_pct() function in drivers/media/dvb-frontends/cx24116.c. A local user can execute arbitrary code.

Mitigation

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