TITLE

Linux Kernel Vulnerable to classic buffer overflow

DESCRIPTION

There is heap-based buffer overflow in kernel, all versions up to, excluding 5.3, in the marvell wifi chip driver in Linux kernel, that allows local users to cause a denial of service(system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. Linux Kernel Contains a classic buffer overflow vulnerability.Information is obtained, information is altered, and service operation is disrupted (DoS) There is a possibility of being put into a state. 8.0) - aarch64, noarch, ppc64le, s390x, x86_64 3. Bug Fix(es): * Backport TCP follow-up for small buffers (BZ#1739184) * TCP performance regression after CVE-2019-11478 bug fix (BZ#1743170) * RHEL8.0 - bnx2x link down, caused by transmit timeouts during load test (Marvell/Cavium/QLogic) (L3:) (BZ#1743548) * block: blk-mq improvement (BZ#1780567) * RHEL8.0 - Regression to RHEL7.6 by changing force_latency found during RHEL8.0 validation for SAP HANA on POWER (BZ#1781111) * blk-mq: overwirte performance drops on real MQ device (BZ#1782183) * RHEL8: creating vport takes lot of memory i.e 2GB per vport which leads to drain out system memory quickly. (BZ#1782705) 4. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 ===================================================================== Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Important: kernel security and bug fix update Advisory ID: RHSA-2020:0374-01 Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advisory URL: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2020:0374 Issue date: 2020-02-04 CVE Names: CVE-2019-14816 CVE-2019-14895 CVE-2019-14898 CVE-2019-14901 CVE-2019-17133 ===================================================================== 1.

Here are the details from the Slackware 14.2 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/linux-4.4.199/*: Upgraded. These updates fix various bugs and security issues. Be sure to upgrade your initrd after upgrading the kernel packages. If you use lilo to boot your machine, be sure lilo.conf points to the correct kernel and initrd and run lilo as root to update the bootloader. If you use elilo to boot your machine, you should run eliloconfig to copy the kernel and initrd to the EFI System Partition.

For a 32-bit SMP machine, use this command (substitute the appropriate kernel version if you are not running Slackware 14.2): # /usr/share/mkinitrd/mkinitrd_command_generator.sh -k 4.4.199-smp | bash For a 64-bit machine, or a 32-bit uniprocessor machine, use this command (substitute the appropriate kernel version if you are not running Slackware 14.2): # /usr/share/mkinitrd/mkinitrd_command_generator.sh -k 4.4.199 | bash Please note that "uniprocessor" has to do with the kernel you are running, not with the CPU. Most systems should run the SMP kernel (if they can) regardless of the number of cores the CPU has. If you aren't sure which kernel you are running, run "uname -a". If you see SMP there, you are running the SMP kernel and should use the 4.4.199-smp version when running mkinitrd_command_generator. Note that this is only for 32-bit -- 64-bit systems should always use 4.4.199 as the version. If you are using lilo or elilo to boot the machine, you'll need to ensure that the machine is properly prepared before rebooting. If using LILO: By default, lilo.conf contains an image= line that references a symlink that always points to the correct kernel. No editing should be required unless your machine uses a custom lilo.conf. If that is the case, be sure that the image= line references the correct kernel file. Either way, you'll need to run "lilo" as root to reinstall the boot loader. If using elilo: Ensure that the /boot/vmlinuz symlink is pointing to the kernel you wish to use, and then run eliloconfig to update the EFI System Partition. +-----+ Slackware Linux Security Team http://slackware.com/gpg-key security@slackware.com +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | To leave the slackware-security mailing list: | +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Send an email to majordomo@slackware.com with this text in the body of | | the email message: | | | | unsubscribe slackware-security | | | | You will get a confirmation message back containing instructions to | | complete the process.

Bug Fix(es): * RHEL7.5 - kernel crashed at xfs_reclaim_inodes_count+0x70/0xa0 (BZ#1795578) 4. ========================================================================= Ubuntu Security Notice USN-4163-1 October 22, 2019 linux, linux-aws, linux-kvm, linux-raspi2, linux-snapdragon vulnerabilities ========================================================================= A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 16.04 LTS Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2016-10906) It was discovered that a race condition existed in the Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) implementation in the Linux kernel when handling certain error conditions. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (kernel deadlock). (CVE-2017-18232) It was discovered that the RSI 91x Wi-Fi driver in the Linux kernel did not did not handle detach operations correctly, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. (CVE-2018-21008) Wen Huang discovered that the Marvell Wi-Fi device driver in the Linux kernel did not properly perform bounds checking, leading to a heap overflow. (CVE-2019-14814, CVE-2019-14816) Matt Delco discovered that the KVM hypervisor implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly perform bounds checking when handling coalesced MMIO write operations. A local attacker with write access to /dev/kvm could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2019-14821) Hui Peng and Mathias Payer discovered that the USB audio driver for the Linux kernel did not properly validate device meta data. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2019-15117) Hui Peng and Mathias Payer discovered that the USB audio driver for the Linux kernel improperly performed recursion while handling device meta data. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2019-15118) It was discovered that the Technisat DVB-S/S2 USB device driver in the Linux kernel contained a buffer overread. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly expose sensitive information. (CVE-2019-15505) Brad Spengler discovered that a Spectre mitigation was improperly implemented in the ptrace susbsystem of the Linux kernel. A local attacker could possibly use this to expose sensitive information. (CVE-2019-15902) Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS: linux-image-4.4.0-1060-kvm 4.4.0-1060.67 linux-image-4.4.0-1096-aws 4.4.0-1096.107 linux-image-4.4.0-1124-raspi2 4.4.0-1124.133 linux-image-4.4.0-1128-snapdragon 4.4.0-1128.136 linux-image-4.4.0-166-generic 4.4.0-166.195 linux-image-4.4.0-166-generic-lpae 4.4.0-166.195 linux-image-4.4.0-166-lowlatency 4.4.0-166.195 linux-image-4.4.0-166-powerpc-e500mc 4.4.0-166.195 linux-image-4.4.0-166-powerpc-smp 4.4.0-166.195 linux-image-4.4.0-166-powerpc64-emb 4.4.0-166.195 linux-image-4.4.0-166-powerpc64-smp 4.4.0-166.195 linux-image-aws 4.4.0.1096.100 linux-image-generic 4.4.0.166.174 linux-image-generic-lpae 4.4.0.166.174 linux-image-kvm 4.4.0.1060.60 linux-image-lowlatency 4.4.0.166.174 linux-image-powerpc-e500mc 4.4.0.166.174 linux-image-powerpc-smp 4.4.0.166.174 linux-image-powerpc64-emb 4.4.0.166.174 linux-image-powerpc64-smp 4.4.0.166.174 linux-image-raspi2 4.4.0.1124.124 linux-image-snapdragon 4.4.0.1128.120 linux-image-virtual 4.4.0.166.174 After a standard system update you need to reboot your computer to make all the necessary changes. ATTENTION: Due to an unavoidable ABI change the kernel updates have been given a new version number, which requires you to recompile and reinstall all third party kernel modules you might have installed. Unless you manually uninstalled the standard kernel metapackages (e.g. linux-generic, linux-generic-lts-RELEASE, linux-virtual, linux-powerpc), a standard system upgrade will automatically perform this as well. Description: The kernel-rt packages provide the Real Time Linux Kernel, which enables fine-tuning for systems with extremely high determinism requirements. Bug Fix(es): * kernel-rt: update RT source tree to the RHEL-8.1.z2 source tree (BZ#1780326) 4
