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

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

Update to the latest upstream stable release, Linux v4.5.7.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora update system website.
Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

This update fixes the CVEs described below.

CVE-2016-0821

Solar Designer noted that the list 'poisoning' feature, intended to mitigate the effects of bugs in list manipulation in the kernel, used poison values within the range of virtual addresses that can be allocated by user processes.

CVE-2016-1583

Jann Horn of Google Project Zero reported that the eCryptfs filesystem could be used together with the proc filesystem to cause a kernel stack overflow. If the ecryptfs-utils package was installed, local users could exploit this, via the mount.ecryptfs_private program, for denial of service (crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2016-2184, CVE-2016-2185, CVE-2016-2186, CVE-2016-2187, CVE-2016-3136, CVE-2016-3137, CVE-2016-3138, CVE-2016-3140

Ralf Spenneberg of OpenSource Security reported that various USB drivers do not sufficiently validate USB descriptors. This allowed a physically present user with a specially designed USB device to cause a denial of service (crash). Not all the drivers have yet been fixed.

CVE-2016-3134

The Google Project Zero team found that the netfilter subsystem does not sufficiently validate filter table entries. A user with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability could use this for denial of service (crash) or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2016-3157 / XSA-171

Andy Lutomirski discovered that the x86_64 (amd64) task switching implementation did not correctly update the I/O permission level when running as a Xen paravirtual (PV) guest. In some configurations this would allow local users to cause a denial of service (crash) or to escalate their privileges within the guest.

CVE-2016-3672

Hector Marco and Ismael Ripoll noted that it was still possible to disable Address Space Layout Randomisation (ASLR) for x86_32 (i386) programs by removing the stack resource limit. This made it easier for local users to exploit security flaws in programs that have the setuid or setgid flag set.

CVE-2016-3951

It was discovered that the cdc_ncm driver would free memory prematurely if certain errors occurred during its initialisation. This allowed a physically present user with a specially designed USB device to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly to escalate their privileges.

CVE-2016-3955

Ignat Korchagin reported that the usbip subsystem did not check the length of data received for a USB buffer. This allowed denial of service (crash) or privilege escalation on a system configured as a usbip client, by the usbip server or by an attacker able to impersonate it over the network. A system configured as a usbip server might be similarly vulnerable to physically present users.

CVE-2016-3961 / XSA-174

Vitaly Kuznetsov of Red Hat discovered that Linux allowed use of hugetlbfs on x86 (i386 and amd64) systems even when running as a Xen paravirtualised (PV) guest, although Xen does not support huge pages.
This allowed users with access to /dev/hugepages to cause a denial of service (crash) in the guest.

CVE-2016-4482, CVE-2016-4485, CVE-2016-4486, CVE-2016-4569, CVE-2016-4578, CVE-2016-4580, CVE-2016-5243, CVE-2016-5244

Kangjie Lu reported that the USB devio, llc, rtnetlink, ALSA timer, x25, tipc, and rds facilities leaked information from the kernel stack.

CVE-2016-4565

Jann Horn of Google Project Zero reported that various components in the InfiniBand stack implemented unusual semantics for the write() operation. On a system with InfiniBand drivers loaded, local users could use this for denial of service or privilege escalation.

CVE-2016-4913

Al Viro found that the ISO9660 filesystem implementation did not correctly count the length of certain invalid name entries. Reading a directory containing such name entries would leak information from kernel memory. Users permitted to mount disks or disk images could use this to obtain sensitive information.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version 3.2.81-1.

This update also fixes bug #627782, which caused data corruption in some applications running on an aufs filesystem, and includes many other bug fixes from upstream stable updates 3.2.79, 3.2.80 and 3.2.81.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you upgrade your linux packages.

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information leaks.

  - CVE-2015-7515, CVE-2016-2184, CVE-2016-2185,     CVE-2016-2186, CVE-2016-2187, CVE-2016-3136,     CVE-2016-3137, CVE-2016-3138, CVE-2016-3140     Ralf Spenneberg of OpenSource Security reported that     various USB drivers do not sufficiently validate USB     descriptors. This allowed a physically present user with     a specially designed USB device to cause a denial of     service (crash).

  - CVE-2016-0821     Solar Designer noted that the list 'poisoning' feature,     intended to mitigate the effects of bugs in list     manipulation in the kernel, used poison values within     the range of virtual addresses that can be allocated by     user processes.

  - CVE-2016-1237     David Sinquin discovered that nfsd does not check     permissions when setting ACLs, allowing users to grant     themselves permissions to a file by setting the ACL.

  - CVE-2016-1583     Jann Horn of Google Project Zero reported that the     eCryptfs filesystem could be used together with the proc     filesystem to cause a kernel stack overflow. If the     ecryptfs-utils package is installed, local users could     exploit this, via the mount.ecryptfs_private program,     for denial of service (crash) or possibly for privilege     escalation.

  - CVE-2016-2117     Justin Yackoski of Cryptonite discovered that the     Atheros L2 ethernet driver incorrectly enables     scatter/gather I/O. A remote attacker could take     advantage of this flaw to obtain potentially sensitive     information from kernel memory.

  - CVE-2016-2143     Marcin Koscielnicki discovered that the fork     implementation in the Linux kernel on s390 platforms     mishandles the case of four page-table levels, which     allows local users to cause a denial of service (system     crash).

  - CVE-2016-3070     Jan Stancek of Red Hat discovered a local denial of     service vulnerability in AIO handling.

  - CVE-2016-3134     The Google Project Zero team found that the netfilter     subsystem does not sufficiently validate filter table     entries. A user with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability could     use this for denial of service (crash) or possibly for     privilege escalation. Debian disables unprivileged user     namespaces by default, if locally enabled with the     kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone sysctl, this allows     privilege escalation.

  - CVE-2016-3156     Solar Designer discovered that the IPv4 implementation     in the Linux kernel did not perform the destruction of     inet device objects properly. An attacker in a guest OS     could use this to cause a denial of service (networking     outage) in the host OS.

  - CVE-2016-3157 / XSA-171     Andy Lutomirski discovered that the x86_64 (amd64) task     switching implementation did not correctly update the     I/O permission level when running as a Xen paravirtual     (PV) guest. In some configurations this would allow     local users to cause a denial of service (crash) or to     escalate their privileges within the guest.

  - CVE-2016-3672     Hector Marco and Ismael Ripoll noted that it was     possible to disable Address Space Layout Randomisation     (ASLR) for x86_32 (i386) programs by removing the stack     resource limit. This made it easier for local users to     exploit security flaws in programs that have the setuid     or setgid flag set.

  - CVE-2016-3951     It was discovered that the cdc_ncm driver would free     memory prematurely if certain errors occurred during its     initialisation. This allowed a physically present user     with a specially designed USB device to cause a denial     of service (crash) or possibly to escalate their     privileges.

  - CVE-2016-3955     Ignat Korchagin reported that the usbip subsystem did     not check the length of data received for a USB buffer.
    This allowed denial of service (crash) or privilege     escalation on a system configured as a usbip client, by     the usbip server or by an attacker able to impersonate     it over the network. A system configured as a usbip     server might be similarly vulnerable to physically     present users.

  - CVE-2016-3961 / XSA-174     Vitaly Kuznetsov of Red Hat discovered that Linux     allowed the use of hugetlbfs on x86 (i386 and amd64)     systems even when running as a Xen paravirtualised (PV)     guest, although Xen does not support huge pages. This     allowed users with access to /dev/hugepages to cause a     denial of service (crash) in the guest.

  - CVE-2016-4470     David Howells of Red Hat discovered that a local user     can trigger a flaw in the Linux kernel's handling of key     lookups in the keychain subsystem, leading to a denial     of service (crash) or possibly to privilege escalation.

  - CVE-2016-4482, CVE-2016-4485, CVE-2016-4486,     CVE-2016-4569, CVE-2016-4578, CVE-2016-4580,     CVE-2016-5243, CVE-2016-5244

    Kangjie Lu reported that the USB devio, llc, rtnetlink,     ALSA timer, x25, tipc, and rds facilities leaked     information from the kernel stack.

  - CVE-2016-4565     Jann Horn of Google Project Zero reported that various     components in the InfiniBand stack implemented unusual     semantics for the write() operation. On a system with     InfiniBand drivers loaded, local users could use this     for denial of service or privilege escalation.

  - CVE-2016-4581     Tycho Andersen discovered that in some situations the     Linux kernel did not handle propagated mounts correctly.
    A local user can take advantage of this flaw to cause a     denial of service (system crash).

  - CVE-2016-4805     Baozeng Ding discovered a use-after-free in the generic     PPP layer in the Linux kernel. A local user can take     advantage of this flaw to cause a denial of service     (system crash), or potentially escalate their     privileges.

  - CVE-2016-4913     Al Viro found that the ISO9660 filesystem implementation     did not correctly count the length of certain invalid     name entries. Reading a directory containing such name     entries would leak information from kernel memory. Users     permitted to mount disks or disk images could use this     to obtain sensitive information.

  - CVE-2016-4997 / CVE-2016-4998     Jesse Hertz and Tim Newsham discovered that missing     input sanitising in Netfilter socket handling may result     in denial of service. Debian disables unprivileged user     namespaces by default, if locally enabled with the     kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone sysctl, this also     allows privilege escalation.

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP1 kernel was updated to 3.12.62 to receive various security and bugfixes. The following security bugs were fixed :

  - CVE-2014-9904: The snd_compress_check_input function in     sound/core/compress_offload.c in the ALSA subsystem in     the Linux kernel did not properly check for an integer     overflow, which allowed local users to cause a denial of     service (insufficient memory allocation) or possibly     have unspecified other impact via a crafted     SNDRV_COMPRESS_SET_PARAMS ioctl call (bnc#986811).

  - CVE-2015-7833: The usbvision driver in the Linux kernel     allowed physically proximate attackers to cause a denial     of service (panic) via a nonzero bInterfaceNumber value     in a USB device descriptor (bnc#950998).

  - CVE-2015-8551: The PCI backend driver in Xen, when     running on an x86 system and using Linux as the driver     domain, allowed local guest administrators to hit BUG     conditions and cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and host OS crash) by leveraging a system     with access to a passed-through MSI or MSI-X capable     physical PCI device and a crafted sequence of     XEN_PCI_OP_* operations, aka 'Linux pciback missing     sanity checks (bnc#957990).

  - CVE-2015-8552: The PCI backend driver in Xen, when     running on an x86 system and using Linux as the driver     domain, allowed local guest administrators to generate a     continuous stream of WARN messages and cause a denial of     service (disk consumption) by leveraging a system with     access to a passed-through MSI or MSI-X capable physical     PCI device and XEN_PCI_OP_enable_msi operations, aka     'Linux pciback missing sanity checks (bnc#957990).

  - CVE-2015-8845: The tm_reclaim_thread function in     arch/powerpc/kernel/process.c in the Linux kernel on     powerpc platforms did not ensure that TM suspend mode     exists before proceeding with a tm_reclaim call, which     allowed local users to cause a denial of service (TM Bad     Thing exception and panic) via a crafted application     (bnc#975533).

  - CVE-2016-2053: The asn1_ber_decoder function in     lib/asn1_decoder.c in the Linux kernel allowed attackers     to cause a denial of service (panic) via an ASN.1 BER     file that lacks a public key, leading to mishandling by     the public_key_verify_signature function in     crypto/asymmetric_keys/public_key.c (bnc#963762).

  - CVE-2016-3672: The arch_pick_mmap_layout function in     arch/x86/mm/mmap.c in the Linux kernel did not properly     randomize the legacy base address, which made it easier     for local users to defeat the intended restrictions on     the ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE flag, and bypass the ASLR     protection mechanism for a setuid or setgid program, by     disabling stack-consumption resource limits     (bnc#974308).

  - CVE-2016-4470: The key_reject_and_link function in     security/keys/key.c in the Linux kernel did not ensure     that a certain data structure is initialized, which     allowed local users to cause a denial of service (system     crash) via vectors involving a crafted keyctl request2     command (bnc#984755).

  - CVE-2016-4482: The proc_connectinfo function in     drivers/usb/core/devio.c in the Linux kernel did not     initialize a certain data structure, which allowed local     users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack     memory via a crafted USBDEVFS_CONNECTINFO ioctl call     (bsc#978401).

  - CVE-2016-4486: The rtnl_fill_link_ifmap function in     net/core/rtnetlink.c in the Linux kernel did not     initialize a certain data structure, which allowed local     users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack     memory by reading a Netlink message (bnc#978822).

  - CVE-2016-4565: The InfiniBand (aka IB) stack in the     Linux kernel incorrectly relied on the write system     call, which allowed local users to cause a denial of     service (kernel memory write operation) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a uAPI interface     (bnc#979548).
