The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2018:1854 advisory.

    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 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, PowerPC)

    * kernel: net/packet: overflow in check for priv area size (CVE-2017-7308)

    * kernel: AIO interface didn't use rw_verify_area() for checking mandatory locking on files and size of     access (CVE-2012-6701)

    * kernel: AIO write triggers integer overflow in some protocols (CVE-2015-8830)

    * kernel: Null pointer dereference via keyctl (CVE-2016-8650)

    * kernel: ping socket / AF_LLC connect() sin_family race (CVE-2017-2671)

    * kernel: Race condition between multiple sys_perf_event_open() calls (CVE-2017-6001)

    * kernel: Incorrect error handling in the set_mempolicy and mbind compat syscalls in mm/mempolicy.c     (CVE-2017-7616)

    * kernel: mm subsystem does not properly enforce the CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM protection mechanism     (CVE-2017-7889)

    * kernel: Double free in the inet_csk_clone_lock function in net/ipv4/inet_connection_sock.c     (CVE-2017-8890)

    * kernel: net: sctp_v6_create_accept_sk function mishandles inheritance (CVE-2017-9075)

    * kernel: net: IPv6 DCCP implementation mishandles inheritance (CVE-2017-9076)

    * kernel: net: tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock function mishandles inheritance (CVE-2017-9077)

    * kernel: memory leak when merging buffers in SCSI IO vectors (CVE-2017-12190)

    * kernel: vfs: BUG in truncate_inode_pages_range() and fuse client (CVE-2017-15121)

    * kernel: Race condition in drivers/md/dm.c:dm_get_from_kobject() allows local users to cause a denial of     service (CVE-2017-18203)

    * kernel: a null pointer dereference in net/dccp/output.c:dccp_write_xmit() leads to a system crash     (CVE-2018-1130)

    * kernel: Missing length check of payload in net/sctp/sm_make_chunk.c:_sctp_make_chunk() function allows     denial of service (CVE-2018-5803)

    Red Hat would like to thank Ken Johnson (Microsoft Security Response Center) and Jann Horn (Google Project     Zero) for reporting CVE-2018-3639; Vitaly Mayatskih for reporting CVE-2017-12190; and Evgenii Shatokhin     (Virtuozzo Team) for reporting CVE-2018-1130. The CVE-2017-15121 issue was discovered by Miklos Szeredi     (Red Hat).

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04, has kernel packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A non-privileged user is able to mount a fuse filesystem     on RHEL 6 or 7 and crash a system if an application     punches a hole in a file that does not end aligned to a     page boundary. (CVE-2017-15121)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's handling of fork     failure when dealing with event messages in the     userfaultfd code. Failure to fork correctly can create a     fork event that will be removed from an already freed     list of events. (CVE-2017-15126)

  - An out-of-bounds write vulnerability was found in the     Linux kernel's vmw_surface_define_ioctl() function, in     the 'drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_surface.c' file. Due     to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot     be fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely.
    (CVE-2017-7294)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the way the     Linux kernel's KVM hypervisor implements its device     control API. While creating a device via     kvm_ioctl_create_device(), the device holds a reference     to a VM object, later this reference is transferred to     the caller's file descriptor table. If such file     descriptor was to be closed, reference count to the VM     object could become zero, potentially leading to a use-     after-free issue. A user/process could use this flaw to     crash the guest VM resulting in a denial of service     issue or, potentially, gain privileged access to a     system. (CVE-2019-6974)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the way the     Linux kernel's KVM hypervisor emulates a preemption     timer for L2 guests when nested (=1) virtualization is     enabled. This high resolution timer(hrtimer) runs when a     L2 guest is active. After VM exit, the sync_vmcs12()     timer object is stopped. The use-after-free occurs if     the timer object is freed before calling sync_vmcs12()     routine. A guest user/process could use this flaw to     crash the host kernel resulting in a denial of service     or, potentially, gain privileged access to a system.
    (CVE-2019-7221)

The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the UTSA-2026-003029 advisory.

    A non-privileged user is able to mount a fuse filesystem on RHEL 6 or 7 and crash a system if an     application punches a hole in a file that does not end aligned to a page boundary.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Unity Linux security advisory.
