Red Hat Security Advisory
Synopsis: Important: kernel security and bug fix update
Advisory ID: RHSA-2018:0464-01
Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Advisory URL: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:0464
Issue date: 2018-03-07
=====================================================================
1. Summary:
An update for kernel is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.9 Long
Life.
Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact
of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score,
which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability
from the CVE link(s) in the References section.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Long Life (v. 5.9 server) - i386, ia64, noarch, x86_64
3. Description:
The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux
operating system.
Security Fix(es):
An industry-wide issue was found in the way many modern microprocessor
designs have implemented speculative execution of instructions (a commonly
used performance optimization). There are three primary variants of the
issue which differ in the way the speculative execution can be exploited.
Note: This issue is present in hardware and cannot be fully fixed via
software update. The updated kernel packages provide software mitigation
for this hardware issue at a cost of potential performance penalty. Please
refer to References section for further information about this issue and
the performance impact.
In this update mitigations for x86-64 architecture are provided.
* Variant CVE-2017-5753 triggers the speculative execution by performing a
bounds-check bypass. It relies on the presence of a precisely-defined
instruction sequence in the privileged code as well as the fact that memory
accesses may cause allocation into the microprocessor's data cache even for
speculatively executed instructions that never actually commit (retire). As
a result, an unprivileged attacker could use this flaw to cross the syscall
boundary and read privileged memory by conducting targeted cache
side-channel attacks. (CVE-2017-5753, Important)
* Variant CVE-2017-5754 relies on the fact that, on impacted
microprocessors, during speculative execution of instruction permission
faults, exception generation triggered by a faulting access is suppressed
until the retirement of the whole instruction block. In a combination with
the fact that memory accesses may populate the cache even when the block is
being dropped and never committed (executed), an unprivileged local
attacker could use this flaw to read privileged (kernel space) memory by
conducting targeted cache side-channel attacks. (CVE-2017-5754, Important)
Red Hat would like to thank Google Project Zero for reporting these issues.
Bug Fix(es):
* Previously, the page table isolation feature was able to modify the
kernel Page Global Directory (PGD) entries with the _NX bit even for CPUs
without the capability to use the "no execute" (NX) bit technology.
Consequently, the page tables got corrupted, and the kernel panicked at the
first page-fault occurrence. This update adds the check of CPU capabilities
before modifying kernel PGD entries with _NX. As a result, the operating
system no longer panics on boot due to corrupted page tables under the
described circumstances. (BZ#1538169)
* When booting the operating system with the Kernel Page Table Isolation
option enabled, the HPET VSYSCALL shadow mapping was not placed correctly.
Consequently, the High Precision Event Timer (HPET) feature was not
available early enough, and warnings on boot time occurred. This update
fixes the placement of HPET VSYSCALL, and the warnings on boot time due to
this behavior no longer occur. (BZ#1541281)
* Previously, the routine preparing the kexec crashkernel area did not
properly clear the page allocated to be kexec's Page Global Directory
(PGD). Consequently, the page table isolation shadow mapping routines
failed with a warning message when setting up page table entries. With this
update, the underlying source code has been fixed to clear the kexec PGD
allocated page before setting up its page table entries. As a result,
warnings are no longer issued when setting up kexec. (BZ#1541285)
* When changing a kernel page mapping from Read Only (RO) to Read Write
(RW), the Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB) entry was previously not
updated. Consequently, a protection fault on a write operation occurred,
which led to a kernel panic. With this update, the underlying source code
has been fixed to handle such kind of fault properly, and the kernel no
longer panics in the described situation. (BZ#1541892)
4. Solution:
For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes
described in this advisory, refer to:
https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258
The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect.

Software Description:
- webkit2gtk: Web content engine library for GTK+
Details:
It was discovered that speculative execution performed by modern CPUs
could leak information through a timing side-channel attack, and that
this could be exploited in web browser JavaScript engines. If a user were
tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could
potentially exploit this to obtain sensitive information from other
domains, bypassing same-origin restrictions.
Issue date: 2018-01-03
Updated on: 2018-01-09
CVE number: CVE-2017-5753, CVE-2017-5715
1.
Notes:
Hypervisor mitigation can be classified into the two following
categories:
- Hypervisor-Specific remediation (documented in this advisory)
- Hypervisor-Assisted Guest Remediation (documented in
VMSA-2018-0004)
The ESXi patches and new versions of Workstation and Fusion of
VMSA-2018-0004 include the Hypervisor-Specific remediation documented
in this VMware Security Advisory.
More information on the types of remediation may be found in VMware
Knowledge Base article 52245. Relevant Products
VMware vSphere ESXi (ESXi)
VMware Workstation Pro / Player (Workstation)
VMware Fusion Pro / Fusion (Fusion)
3. Problem Description
Bounds Check bypass and Branch Target Injection issues
CPU data cache timing can be abused to efficiently leak information
out of mis-speculated CPU execution, leading to (at worst) arbitrary
virtual memory read vulnerabilities across local security boundaries
in various contexts. (Speculative execution is an automatic and
inherent CPU performance optimization used in all modern processors.)
ESXi, Workstation and Fusion are vulnerable to Bounds Check Bypass
and Branch Target Injection issues resulting from this vulnerability.
Result of exploitation may allow for information disclosure from one
Virtual Machine to another Virtual Machine that is running on the
same host. The remediation listed in the table below is for the known
variants of the Bounds Check Bypass and Branch Target Injection
issues.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the identifiers CVE-2017-5753 (Bounds Check bypass) and
CVE-2017-5715 (Branch Target Injection) to these issues.
Column 5 of the following table lists the action required to
remediate the observed vulnerability in each release, if a solution
is available.

Infiniband implementation in the Linux kernel. An attacker could use this
to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2018-14734)
Wen Xu discovered that the ext4 filesystem implementation in the Linux
kernel did not properly ensure that xattr information remained in inode
bodies. An attacker could use this to construct a malicious ext4 image
that, when mounted, could cause a denial of service (system crash).
(CVE-2018-10880)
Kanda Motohiro discovered that writing extended attributes to an XFS file
system in the Linux kernel in certain situations could cause an error
condition to occur. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of
service. (CVE-2018-18690)
It was discovered that an integer overflow existed in the HID Bluetooth
implementation in the Linux kernel that could lead to a buffer overwrite.
An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or
possibly execute arbitrary code. This flaw is known as Spectre. A local attacker could use this to
expose sensitive information, including kernel memory. (CVE-2017-5753)
It was discovered that the YUREX USB device driver for the Linux kernel did
not properly restrict user space reads or writes. A physically proximate
attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or
possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2018-16276)
It was discovered that an integer overflow existed in the CD-ROM driver of

Please note that fully mitigating CVE-2017-5715 (Spectre Variant 2)
requires corresponding processor microcode/firmware updates or,
in virtual environments, hypervisor updates. On i386 and amd64
architectures, the IBRS and IBPB features are required to enable the
kernel mitigations. Ubuntu is working with Intel and AMD to provide
future microcode updates that implement IBRS and IBPB as they are made
available. Ubuntu users with a processor from a different vendor should
contact the vendor to identify necessary firmware updates. Ubuntu
will provide corresponding QEMU updates in the future for users of
self-hosted virtual environments in coordination with upstream QEMU.
Ubuntu users in cloud environments should contact the cloud provider
to confirm that the hypervisor has been updated to expose the new
CPU features to virtual machines. ------------------------------------------------------------------------

| VAR-201801-1711 | CVE-2017-5754 | CPU hardware utilizing speculative execution may be vulnerable to cache side-channel attacks |
CVSS V2: 4.7 CVSS V3: 5.6 Severity: MEDIUM |
Systems with microprocessors utilizing speculative execution and indirect branch prediction may allow unauthorized disclosure of information to an attacker with local user access via a side-channel analysis of the data cache. Two vulnerabilities are identified, known as "Variant 3a" and "Variant 4". CPUhardware is a set of firmware that runs in the CPU (Central Processing Unit) for managing and controlling the CPU. The Spectre vulnerability exists in the CPU processor core. Because Intel does not separate low-privileged applications from accessing kernel memory, an attacker can use a malicious application to obtain private data that should be quarantined. Qualcomm Closed-Source Components are prone to multiple unspecified vulnerabilities.
An attacker can exploit these issues to perform unauthorized actions. This may aid in further attacks.
These issues are being tracked by Android Bug IDs A-78135902, A-66913713, A-67712316, A-79419833, A-109678200, A-78283451, A-78285196, A-78284194, A-78284753, A-78284517, A-78240177, A-78239686, A-78284545, A-109660689, A-78240324, A-68141338, A-78286046, A-73539037, A-73539235, A-71501115, A-33757308, A-74236942, A-77485184, A-77484529, A-33385206, A-79419639, A-79420511, A-109678338, and A-112279564. Intel and ARM CPU chips have an information disclosure vulnerability, which originates from a flaw in the processor data boundary mechanism. The following products and versions are affected: ARM Cortex-A75; Intel Xeon E5-1650 v3, v2, v4; Xeon E3-1265l v2, v3, v4; Xeon E3-1245 v2, v3, v5, v6; Xeon X7542 wait. By now, we're sure most everyone have heard of the Meltdown and Spectre
attacks. If not, head over to https://meltdownattack.com/ and get an
overview.
https://googleprojectzero.blogspot.com/2018/01/reading-privileged-memory-with-side.html
The FreeBSD Security Team was notified of the issue in late December
and received a briefing under NDA with the original embargo date of
January 9th. Since we received relatively late notice of the issue, our
ability to provide fixes is delayed.
Meltdown (CVE-2017-5754)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In terms of priority, the first step is to mitigate against the Meltdown
attack (CVE-2017-5754, cited as variant 3 by Project Zero). Work for
this is ongoing, but due to the relatively large changes needed, this is
going to take a little while. We are currently targeting patches for
amd64 being dev complete this week with testing probably running into
next week. From there, we hope to give it a short bake time before
pushing it into the 11.1-RELEASE branch. Additional work will be
required to bring the mitigation to 10.3-RELEASE and 10.4-RELEASE.
The code will be selectable via a tunable which will automatically turn
on for modern Intel processors and off for AMD processors (since they
are reportedly not vulnerable). Since the fix for Meltdown does incur a
performance hit for any transition between user space and kernel space,
this could be rather impactful depending on the workload. As such, the
tunable can also be overridden by the end-user if they are willing to
accept the risk.
Initial work can be tracked at https://reviews.freebsd.org/D13797.
Please note this is a work in progress and some stuff is likely to be
broken.
Spectre (CVE-2017-5753 and CVE-2017-5715)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When it comes to the Spectre vulnerabilities, it is much harder to sort
these out. Variant 1 (CVE-2017-5753) is going to require some static
analysis to determine vulnerable use cases that will require barriers to
stop speculation from disclosing information it shouldn't. While we
haven't done the analysis to determine where we are vulnerable, the
number of cases here are supposed to be pretty small. Apparently there
have been some Coverity rules developed to help look for these, but we
are still evaluating what can be done here.
The other half of Spectre, variant 2 (CVE-2017-5715) is a bit trickier
as it affects both normal processes and bhyve. There is a proposed patch
for LLVM (https://reviews.llvm.org/D41723) that introduces a concept
called 'retpoline' which mitigates this issue. We are likely to pull
this into HEAD and 11-STABLE once it hits the LLVM tree. Unfortunately,
the currently supported FreeBSD releases are using older versions of
LLVM for which we are not sure the LLVM project will produce patches. We
will be looking at the feasibility to backport these patches to these
earlier versions.
There are CPU microcode fixes coming out when in concert with OS changes
would also help, but that's a bit down the road at the moment.
If anything significantly changes I will make additional posts to
clarify as the information becomes available.

Security Fix(es):
An industry-wide issue was found in the way many modern microprocessor
designs have implemented speculative execution of instructions (a commonly
used performance optimization). There are three primary variants of the
issue which differ in the way the speculative execution can be exploited.
Note: This issue is present in hardware and cannot be fully fixed via
software update. The updated kernel packages provide software mitigation
for this hardware issue at a cost of potential performance penalty.
In this update initial mitigations for IBM Power (PowerPC) and IBM zSeries
(S390) architectures are provided.
Variant CVE-2017-5753 triggers the speculative execution by performing a
bounds-check bypass. It relies on the presence of a precisely-defined
instruction sequence in the privileged code as well as the fact that memory
accesses may cause allocation into the microprocessor's data cache even for
speculatively executed instructions that never actually commit (retire). As
a result, an unprivileged attacker could use this flaw to cross the syscall
boundary and read privileged memory by conducting targeted cache
side-channel attacks. (CVE-2017-5753, Important, PowerPC, S390)
Variant CVE-2017-5715 triggers the speculative execution by utilizing
branch target injection. It relies on the presence of a precisely-defined
instruction sequence in the privileged code as well as the fact that memory
accesses may cause allocation into the microprocessor's data cache even for
speculatively executed instructions that never actually commit (retire). As
a result, an unprivileged attacker could use this flaw to cross the syscall
and guest/host boundaries and read privileged memory by conducting targeted
cache side-channel attacks. (CVE-2017-5715, Important, S390)
Variant CVE-2017-5754 relies on the fact that, on impacted microprocessors,
during speculative execution of instruction permission faults, exception
generation triggered by a faulting access is suppressed until the
retirement of the whole instruction block. In a combination with the fact
that memory accesses may populate the cache even when the block is being
dropped and never committed (executed), an unprivileged local attacker
could use this flaw to read privileged (kernel space) memory by conducting
targeted cache side-channel attacks. (CVE-2017-5754, Important, PowerPC)
Red Hat would like to thank Google Project Zero for reporting these issues.
Bug Fix(es):
* When attempting to reread parent blocks in btree traversal, the xfs code
which deletes extended attributes from an inode assumed that the parent
blocks were still on the cache. Under memory pressure and memory reclaim,
such parent blocks were sometimes removed from the cache. Consequently,
attempts to reread previously cached parent blocks caused the file system
to read invalid memory. This update fixes xfs to reinitialize the pointer
to the parent block buffers after the block has been reread. As a result,
pointers to btree blocks now point to valid memory, and the kernel no
longer crashes due to an invalid memory access. (BZ#1512811)
* The write access check for huge pages did not function correctly on IBM z
Systems. Consequently, if asynchronous I/O reads were used, buffers
sometimes contained zeroes rather than data from a file, even when the
io_getevents() system call reported that the associated read had finished
successfully. This update fixes the write access check in the
gup_huge_pmd() function in memory management, and read data is stored in
asynchronous I/O buffers properly. (BZ#1513315)
* With this update, the rule for iptables reloading has been optimized to
complete faster. (BZ#1514040)
4. Solution:

future microcode updates that implement IBRS and IBPB as they are made
available. Ubuntu users with a processor from a different vendor should
contact the vendor to identify necessary firmware updates. Ubuntu
will provide corresponding QEMU updates in the future for users of
self-hosted virtual environments in coordination with upstream QEMU.
Ubuntu users in cloud environments should contact the cloud provider
to confirm that the hypervisor has been updated to expose the new
CPU features to virtual machines. Description:
The kernel-rt packages provide the Real Time Linux Kernel, which enables
fine-tuning for systems with extremely high determinism requirements.
CVE-2017-5754
Multiple researchers have discovered a vulnerability in Intel
processors, enabling an attacker controlling an unprivileged
process to read memory from arbitrary addresses, including from
the kernel and all other processes running on the system.
This specific attack has been named Meltdown and is addressed in
the Linux kernel for the Intel x86-64 architecture by a patch set
named Kernel Page Table Isolation, enforcing a near complete
separation of the kernel and userspace address maps and preventing
the attack. This solution might have a performance impact, and can
be disabled at boot time by passing `pti=off' to the kernel
command line.
CVE-2017-8824
Mohamed Ghannam discovered that the DCCP implementation did not
correctly manage resources when a socket is disconnected and
reconnected, potentially leading to a use-after-free.
CVE-2017-16538
Andrey Konovalov reported that the dvb-usb-lmedm04 media driver
did not correctly handle some error conditions during
initialisation.
CVE-2017-16939
Mohamed Ghannam reported (through Beyond Security's SecuriTeam
Secure Disclosure program) that the IPsec (xfrm) implementation
did not correctly handle some failure cases when dumping policy
information through netlink.
CVE-2017-17448
Kevin Cernekee discovered that the netfilter subsystem allowed
users with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability in any user namespace, not
just the root namespace, to enable and disable connection tracking
helpers. This could lead to denial of service, violation of
network security policy, or have other impact.
CVE-2017-17449
Kevin Cernekee discovered that the netlink subsystem allowed
users with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability in any user namespace
to monitor netlink traffic in all net namespaces, not just
those owned by that user namespace.
CVE-2017-17450
Kevin Cernekee discovered that the xt_osf module allowed users
with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability in any user namespace to modify
the global OS fingerprint list.
CVE-2017-17558
Andrey Konovalov reported that that USB core did not correctly
handle some error conditions during initialisation.
CVE-2017-17741

CVSS V2: 5.0 CVSS V3: 7.5 Severity: HIGH |
A vulnerability in the Cisco node-jose open source library before 0.11.0 could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to re-sign tokens using a key that is embedded within the token. The vulnerability is due to node-jose following the JSON Web Signature (JWS) standard for JSON Web Tokens (JWTs). This standard specifies that a JSON Web Key (JWK) representing a public key can be embedded within the header of a JWS. This public key is then trusted for verification. An attacker could exploit this by forging valid JWS objects by removing the original signature, adding a new public key to the header, and then signing the object using the (attacker-owned) private key associated with the public key embedded in that JWS header. Cisco Node-jose Library is prone to a remote security-bypass vulnerability.
Attackers can exploit this issue to bypass certain security restrictions to gain unauthorized access. This may aid in further attacks

| VAR-201801-0826 | CVE-2017-5715 | CPU hardware utilizing speculative execution may be vulnerable to cache side-channel attacks |
CVSS V2: 1.9 CVSS V3: 5.6 Severity: MEDIUM |
Systems with microprocessors utilizing speculative execution and indirect branch prediction may allow unauthorized disclosure of information to an attacker with local user access via a side-channel analysis. CPU hardware utilizing speculative execution may be vulnerable to cache timing side-channel analysis. Two vulnerabilities are identified, known as "Variant 3a" and "Variant 4". CPUhardware is a set of firmware that runs in the CPU (Central Processing Unit) for managing and controlling the CPU. The Meltdown vulnerability exists in the CPU processor core, which \"melts\" the security boundary implemented by hardware, allowing low-privileged user-level applications to \"cross-border\" access to system-level memory, causing data leakage. Multiple CPU Hardware are prone to an information-disclosure vulnerability.
Attackers can exploit this issue to obtain sensitive information that may aid in further attacks. The following products and versions are affected: ARM Cortex-R7; Cortex-R8; Cortex-A8; Cortex-A9; Cortex-A12; Intel Xeon CPU E5-1650 v3, v2, v4 versions; Xeon E3-1265l v2, v3, v4 Version; Xeon E3-1245 v2, v3, v5, v6 versions; Xeon X7542, etc.
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,

Bug Fix(es):
* When attempting to reread parent blocks in btree traversal, the xfs code
which deletes extended attributes from an inode assumed that the parent
blocks were still on the cache. Under memory pressure and memory reclaim,
such parent blocks were sometimes removed from the cache. Consequently,
attempts to reread previously cached parent blocks caused the file system
to read invalid memory. This update fixes xfs to reinitialize the pointer
to the parent block buffers after the block has been reread. As a result,
pointers to btree blocks now point to valid memory, and the kernel no
longer crashes due to an invalid memory access. (BZ#1512811)
* The write access check for huge pages did not function correctly on IBM z
Systems. Consequently, if asynchronous I/O reads were used, buffers
sometimes contained zeroes rather than data from a file, even when the
io_getevents() system call reported that the associated read had finished
successfully. This update fixes the write access check in the
gup_huge_pmd() function in memory management, and read data is stored in
asynchronous I/O buffers properly. (BZ#1513315)
* With this update, the rule for iptables reloading has been optimized to
complete faster. (BZ#1514040)

Please note that fully mitigating CVE-2017-5715 (Spectre Variant 2)
requires corresponding processor microcode/firmware updates or,
in virtual environments, hypervisor updates. On i386 and amd64
architectures, the IBRS and IBPB features are required to enable the
kernel mitigations. Ubuntu users with a processor from a different vendor should
contact the vendor to identify necessary firmware updates. Ubuntu
will provide corresponding QEMU updates in the future for users of
self-hosted virtual environments in coordination with upstream QEMU.
Ubuntu users in cloud environments should contact the cloud provider
to confirm that the hypervisor has been updated to expose the new
CPU features to virtual machines.

3. Description:
The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux
operating system.
Security Fix(es):
An industry-wide issue was found in the way many modern microprocessor
designs have implemented speculative execution of instructions (a commonly
used performance optimization). There are three primary variants of the
issue which differ in the way the speculative execution can be exploited.
Note: This issue is present in hardware and cannot be fully fixed via
software update. The updated kernel packages provide software mitigation
for this hardware issue at a cost of potential performance penalty. Please
refer to References section for further information about this issue and
the performance impact.
In this update initial mitigations for IBM Power (PowerPC) and IBM zSeries
(S390) architectures are provided.
* Variant CVE-2017-5715 triggers the speculative execution by utilizing
branch target injection. It relies on the presence of a precisely-defined
instruction sequence in the privileged code as well as the fact that memory
accesses may cause allocation into the microprocessor's data cache even for
speculatively executed instructions that never actually commit (retire). As
a result, an unprivileged attacker could use this flaw to cross the syscall
and guest/host boundaries and read privileged memory by conducting targeted
cache side-channel attacks. This fix specifically addresses S390
processors. (CVE-2017-5715, Important)
* Variant CVE-2017-5753 triggers the speculative execution by performing a
bounds-check bypass. It relies on the presence of a precisely-defined
instruction sequence in the privileged code as well as the fact that memory
accesses may cause allocation into the microprocessor's data cache even for
speculatively executed instructions that never actually commit (retire). As
a result, an unprivileged attacker could use this flaw to cross the syscall
boundary and read privileged memory by conducting targeted cache
side-channel attacks. This fix specifically addresses S390 and PowerPC
processors. (CVE-2017-5753, Important)
* Variant CVE-2017-5754 relies on the fact that, on impacted
microprocessors, during speculative execution of instruction permission
faults, exception generation triggered by a faulting access is suppressed
until the retirement of the whole instruction block. In a combination with
the fact that memory accesses may populate the cache even when the block is
being dropped and never committed (executed), an unprivileged local
attacker could use this flaw to read privileged (kernel space) memory by
conducting targeted cache side-channel attacks. Note: CVE-2017-5754 affects
Intel x86-64 microprocessors. AMD x86-64 microprocessors are not affected
by this issue. This fix specifically addresses PowerPC processors.

. Unfortunately, the update caused some
systems to fail to boot.
We apologize for the inconvenience. Description:
The microcode_ctl packages provide microcode updates for Intel and AMD
processors.
CVE-2017-5715
Multiple researchers have discovered a vulnerability in various
processors supporting speculative execution, enabling an attacker
controlling an unprivileged process to read memory from arbitrary
addresses, including from the kernel and all other processes running on
the system.
CVE-2017-5754
Multiple researchers have discovered a vulnerability in Intel
processors, enabling an attacker controlling an unprivileged process to
read memory from arbitrary addresses, including from the kernel and all
other processes running on the system.
This specific attack has been named Meltdown and is addressed in the
Linux kernel on the powerpc/ppc64el architectures by flushing the L1
data cache on exit from kernel mode to user mode (or from hypervisor to
kernel).
This works on Power7, Power8 and Power9 processors.
CVE-2017-13166
A bug in the 32-bit compatibility layer of the v4l2 IOCTL handling code
has been found. Memory protections ensuring user-provided buffers always
point to userland memory were disabled, allowing . This bug could be
exploited by an attacker to overwrite kernel memory from an unprivileged
userland process, leading to privilege escalation. The
acpi_smbus_hc_add() prints a kernel address in the kernel log at every
boot, which could be used by an attacker on the system to defeat kernel
ASLR.
Additionnaly to those vulnerability, some mitigations for CVE-2017-5753 are
included in this release.
CVE-2017-5753
Multiple researchers have discovered a vulnerability in various
processors supporting speculative execution, enabling an attacker
controlling an unprivileged process to read memory from arbitrary
addresses, including from the kernel and all other processes running on
the system.
This specific attack has been named Spectre variant 1 (bounds-check
bypass) and is mitigated in the Linux kernel architecture by identifying
vulnerable code sections (array bounds checking followed by array
access) and replacing the array access with the speculation-safe
array_index_nospec() function.
More use sites will be added over time.
For the stable distribution (stretch), these problems have been fixed in
version 4.9.82-1+deb9u2.

| VAR-201801-1708 | CVE-2017-18017 | Linux kernel Resource Management Error Vulnerability |
CVSS V2: 10.0 CVSS V3: 9.8 Severity: CRITICAL |
The tcpmss_mangle_packet function in net/netfilter/xt_TCPMSS.c in the Linux kernel before 4.11, and 4.9.x before 4.9.36, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging the presence of xt_TCPMSS in an iptables action. Linux Kernel is prone to a denial-of-service vulnerability.
An attacker can exploit this issue to cause a denial-of-service condition.
Linux kernel versions prior to 4.11, and 4.9.x prior to 4.9.36 are vulnerable. 6) - i386, x86_64

Security Fix(es):
* An industry-wide issue was found in the way many modern microprocessor
designs have implemented speculative execution of Load & Store instructions
(a commonly used performance optimization). It relies on the presence of a
precisely-defined instruction sequence in the privileged code as well as
the fact that memory read from address to which a recent memory write has
occurred may see an older value and subsequently cause an update into the
microprocessor's data cache even for speculatively executed instructions
that never actually commit (retire). As a result, an unprivileged attacker
could use this flaw to read privileged memory by conducting targeted cache
side-channel attacks. (CVE-2018-3639)
Note: This issue is present in hardware and cannot be fully fixed via
software update. To be fully functional, up-to-date CPU
microcode applied on the system might be required. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/):

CVE-2018-1000199
Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that
may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information
leaks.
CVE-2015-9016
Ming Lei reported a race condition in the multiqueue block layer
(blk-mq). On a system with a driver using blk-mq (mtip32xx,
null_blk, or virtio_blk), a local user might be able to use this
for denial of service or possibly for privilege escalation.
CVE-2017-0861
Robb Glasser reported a potential use-after-free in the ALSA (sound)
PCM core. We believe this was not possible in practice.
CVE-2017-5715
Multiple researchers have discovered a vulnerability in various
processors supporting speculative execution, enabling an attacker
controlling an unprivileged process to read memory from arbitrary
addresses, including from the kernel and all other processes
running on the system.
This specific attack has been named Spectre variant 2 (branch
target injection) and is mitigated for the x86 architecture (amd64
and i386) by using the "retpoline" compiler feature which allows
indirect branches to be isolated from speculative execution.
CVE-2017-5753
Multiple researchers have discovered a vulnerability in various
processors supporting speculative execution, enabling an attacker
controlling an unprivileged process to read memory from arbitrary
addresses, including from the kernel and all other processes
running on the system.
This specific attack has been named Spectre variant 1
(bounds-check bypass) and is mitigated by identifying vulnerable
code sections (array bounds checking followed by array access) and
replacing the array access with the speculation-safe
array_index_nospec() function.
More use sites will be added over time.
CVE-2017-13166
A bug in the 32-bit compatibility layer of the v4l2 ioctl handling
code has been found. Memory protections ensuring user-provided
buffers always point to userland memory were disabled, allowing
destination addresses to be in kernel space. On a 64-bit kernel a
local user with access to a suitable video device can exploit this
to overwrite kernel memory, leading to privilege escalation.
CVE-2017-13220
Al Viro reported that the Bluetooth HIDP implementation could
dereference a pointer before performing the necessary type check.
A local user could use this to cause a denial of service.
CVE-2017-16526
Andrey Konovalov reported that the UWB subsystem may dereference
an invalid pointer in an error case. A local user might be able
to use this for denial of service.
CVE-2017-16911
Secunia Research reported that the USB/IP vhci_hcd driver exposed
kernel heap addresses to local users. This information could aid the
exploitation of other vulnerabilities.
CVE-2017-16912
Secunia Research reported that the USB/IP stub driver failed to
perform a range check on a received packet header field, leading
to an out-of-bounds read. A remote user able to connect to the
USB/IP server could use this for denial of service.
CVE-2017-16913
Secunia Research reported that the USB/IP stub driver failed to
perform a range check on a received packet header field, leading
to excessive memory allocation. A remote user able to connect to
the USB/IP server could use this for denial of service.
CVE-2017-16914
Secunia Research reported that the USB/IP stub driver failed to
check for an invalid combination of fields in a received packet,
leading to a null pointer dereference. A remote user able to
connect to the USB/IP server could use this for denial of service.
CVE-2017-18017
Denys Fedoryshchenko reported that the netfilter xt_TCPMSS module
failed to validate TCP header lengths, potentially leading to a
use-after-free. If this module is loaded, it could be used by a
remote attacker for denial of service or possibly for code
execution.
CVE-2017-18203
Hou Tao reported that there was a race condition in creation and
deletion of device-mapper (DM) devices. A local user could
potentially use this for denial of service.
CVE-2017-18216
Alex Chen reported that the OCFS2 filesystem failed to hold a
necessary lock during nodemanager sysfs file operations,
potentially leading to a null pointer dereference. A local user
could use this for denial of service.
CVE-2017-18232
Jason Yan reported a race condition in the SAS (Serial-Attached
SCSI) subsystem, between probing and destroying a port. This
could lead to a deadlock.
CVE-2017-18241
Yunlei He reported that the f2fs implementation does not properly
initialise its state if the "noflush_merge" mount option is used.
A local user with access to a filesystem mounted with this option
could use this to cause a denial of service.
CVE-2018-1066
Dan Aloni reported to Red Hat that the CIFS client implementation
would dereference a null pointer if the server sent an invalid
response during NTLMSSP setup negotiation. This could be used
by a malicious server for denial of service.
CVE-2018-1068
The syzkaller tool found that the 32-bit compatibility layer of
ebtables did not sufficiently validate offset values. On a 64-bit
kernel, a local user with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability (in any user
namespace) could use this to overwrite kernel memory, possibly
leading to privilege escalation. Debian disables unprivileged user
namespaces by default.
CVE-2018-1092
Wen Xu reported that a crafted ext4 filesystem image would
trigger a null dereference when mounted. A local user able
to mount arbitrary filesystems could use this for denial of
service.
CVE-2018-5332
Mohamed Ghannam reported that the RDS protocol did not
sufficiently validate RDMA requests, leading to an out-of-bounds
write. A local attacker on a system with the rds module loaded
could use this for denial of service or possibly for privilege
escalation.
CVE-2018-5333
Mohamed Ghannam reported that the RDS protocol did not properly
handle an error case, leading to a null pointer dereference. A
local attacker on a system with the rds module loaded could
possibly use this for denial of service.
CVE-2018-5750
Wang Qize reported that the ACPI sbshc driver logged a kernel heap
address. This information could aid the exploitation of other
vulnerabilities.
CVE-2018-5803
Alexey Kodanev reported that the SCTP protocol did not range-check
the length of chunks to be created. A local or remote user could
use this to cause a denial of service.
CVE-2018-6927
Li Jinyue reported that the FUTEX_REQUEUE operation on futexes did
not check for negative parameter values, which might lead to a
denial of service or other security impact.
CVE-2018-7492
The syzkaller tool found that the RDS protocol was lacking a null
pointer check. A local attacker on a system with the rds module
loaded could use this for denial of service.
CVE-2018-7566
Fan LongFei reported a race condition in the ALSA (sound)
sequencer core, between write and ioctl operations. This could
lead to an out-of-bounds access or use-after-free. A local user
with access to a sequencer device could use this for denial of
service or possibly for privilege escalation.
CVE-2018-7740
Nic Losby reported that the hugetlbfs filesystem's mmap operation
did not properly range-check the file offset. A local user with
access to files on a hugetlbfs filesystem could use this to cause
a denial of service.
CVE-2018-7757
Jason Yan reported a memory leak in the SAS (Serial-Attached
SCSI) subsystem. A local user on a system with SAS devices
could use this to cause a denial of service.
CVE-2018-7995
Seunghun Han reported a race condition in the x86 MCE
(Machine Check Exception) driver. This is unlikely to have
any security impact.
CVE-2018-8781
Eyal Itkin reported that the udl (DisplayLink) driver's mmap
operation did not properly range-check the file offset. A local
user with access to a udl framebuffer device could exploit this to
overwrite kernel memory, leading to privilege escalation.
CVE-2018-8822
Dr Silvio Cesare of InfoSect reported that the ncpfs client
implementation did not validate reply lengths from the server. An
ncpfs server could use this to cause a denial of service or
remote code execution in the client.
CVE-2018-1000004
Luo Quan reported a race condition in the ALSA (sound) sequencer
core, between multiple ioctl operations. This could lead to a
deadlock or use-after-free. A local user with access to a
sequencer device could use this for denial of service or possibly
for privilege escalation.
CVE-2018-1000199
Andy Lutomirski discovered that the ptrace subsystem did not
sufficiently validate hardware breakpoint settings. Local users
can use this to cause a denial of service, or possibly for
privilege escalation, on x86 (amd64 and i386) and possibly other
architectures.
For the oldstable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed
in version 3.16.56-1.

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.

| VAR-201712-0583 | CVE-2017-17910 | Hoermann BiSecur Device cryptographic vulnerability |
CVSS V2: 3.3 CVSS V3: 6.5 Severity: MEDIUM |
On Hoermann BiSecur devices before 2018, a vulnerability can be exploited by recording a single radio transmission. An attacker can intercept an arbitrary radio frame exchanged between a BiSecur transmitter and a receiver to obtain the encrypted packet and the 32-bit serial number. The interception of the one-time pairing process is specifically not required. Due to use of AES-128 with an initial static random value and static data vector (all of this static information is the same across different customers' installations), the attacker can easily derive the utilized encryption key and decrypt the intercepted packet. The key can be verified by decrypting the intercepted packet and checking for known plaintext. Subsequently, an attacker can create arbitrary radio frames with the correct encryption key to control BiSecur garage and entrance gate operators and possibly other BiSecur systems as well ("wireless cloning"). To conduct the attack, a low cost Software Defined Radio (SDR) is sufficient. This affects Hoermann Hand Transmitter HS5-868-BS, HSE1-868-BS, and HSE2-868-BS devices. Hoermann BiSecur The device contains a cryptographic vulnerability.Denial of service (DoS) May be in a state. HoermannBiSecurdevices is a security door remote control device from Hoermann, Germany.
