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

  - CVE-2017-15649: net/packet/af_packet.c in the Linux     kernel allowed local users to gain privileges via     crafted system calls that trigger mishandling of     packet_fanout data structures, because of a race     condition (involving fanout_add and packet_do_bind) that     leads to a use-after-free, a different vulnerability     than CVE-2017-6346 (bnc#1064388).

  - CVE-2015-9004: kernel/events/core.c in the Linux kernel     mishandled counter grouping, which allowed local users     to gain privileges via a crafted application, related to     the perf_pmu_register and perf_event_open functions     (bnc#1037306).

  - CVE-2016-10229: udp.c in the Linux kernel allowed remote     attackers to execute arbitrary code via UDP traffic that     triggers an unsafe second checksum calculation during     execution of a recv system call with the MSG_PEEK flag     (bnc#1032268).

  - CVE-2016-9604: The handling of keyrings starting with     '.' in KEYCTL_JOIN_SESSION_KEYRING, which could have     allowed local users to manipulate privileged keyrings,     was fixed (bsc#1035576)

  - CVE-2017-1000363: Linux drivers/char/lp.c Out-of-Bounds     Write. Due to a missing bounds check, and the fact that     parport_ptr integer is static, a 'secure boot' kernel     command line adversary (can happen due to bootloader     vulns, e.g. Google Nexus 6's CVE-2016-10277, where due     to a vulnerability the adversary has partial control     over the command line) can overflow the parport_nr array     in the following code, by appending many (>LP_NO)     'lp=none' arguments to the command line (bnc#1039456).

  - CVE-2017-1000365: The Linux Kernel imposes a size     restriction on the arguments and environmental strings     passed through RLIMIT_STACK/RLIM_INFINITY (1/4 of the     size), but did not take the argument and environment     pointers into account, which allowed attackers to bypass     this limitation. (bnc#1039354).

  - CVE-2017-1000380: sound/core/timer.c in the Linux kernel     is vulnerable to a data race in the ALSA /dev/snd/timer     driver resulting in local users being able to read     information belonging to other users, i.e.,     uninitialized memory contents may be disclosed when a     read and an ioctl happen at the same time (bnc#1044125).

  - CVE-2017-10661: Race condition in fs/timerfd.c in the     Linux kernel allowed local users to gain privileges or     cause a denial of service (list corruption or     use-after-free) via simultaneous file-descriptor     operations that leverage improper might_cancel queueing     (bnc#1053152).

  - CVE-2017-11176: The mq_notify function in the Linux     kernel did not set the sock pointer to NULL upon entry     into the retry logic. During a user-space close of a     Netlink socket, it allowed attackers to cause a denial     of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified     other impact (bnc#1048275).

  - CVE-2017-12153: A security flaw was discovered in the     nl80211_set_rekey_data() function in     net/wireless/nl80211.c in the Linux kernel This function     did not check whether the required attributes are     present in a Netlink request. This request can be issued     by a user with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability and may     result in a NULL pointer dereference and system crash     (bnc#1058410).

  - CVE-2017-12154: The prepare_vmcs02 function in     arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the Linux kernel did not ensure     that the 'CR8-load exiting' and 'CR8-store exiting' L0     vmcs02 controls exist in cases where L1 omits the 'use     TPR shadow' vmcs12 control, which allowed KVM L2 guest     OS users to obtain read and write access to the hardware     CR8 register (bnc#1058507).

  - CVE-2017-12762: In /drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_net.c: A     user-controlled buffer is copied into a local buffer of     constant size using strcpy without a length check which     can cause a buffer overflow. (bnc#1053148).

  - CVE-2017-13080: Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA and WPA2)     allowed reinstallation of the Group Temporal Key (GTK)     during the group key handshake, allowing an attacker     within radio range to replay frames from access points     to clients (bnc#1063667).

  - CVE-2017-14051: An integer overflow in the     qla2x00_sysfs_write_optrom_ctl function in     drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_attr.c in the Linux kernel     allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory     corruption and system crash) by leveraging root access     (bnc#1056588).

  - CVE-2017-14106: The tcp_disconnect function in     net/ipv4/tcp.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users     to cause a denial of service (__tcp_select_window     divide-by-zero error and system crash) by triggering a     disconnect within a certain tcp_recvmsg code path     (bnc#1056982).

  - CVE-2017-14140: The move_pages system call in     mm/migrate.c in the Linux kernel doesn't check the     effective uid of the target process, enabling a local     attacker to learn the memory layout of a setuid     executable despite ASLR (bnc#1057179).

  - CVE-2017-15265: Use-after-free vulnerability in the     Linux kernel allowed local users to have unspecified     impact via vectors related to /dev/snd/seq     (bnc#1062520).

  - CVE-2017-15274: security/keys/keyctl.c in the Linux     kernel did not consider the case of a NULL payload in     conjunction with a nonzero length value, which allowed     local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and OOPS) via a crafted add_key or keyctl     system call, a different vulnerability than     CVE-2017-12192 (bnc#1045327).

  - CVE-2017-2647: The KEYS subsystem in the Linux kernel     allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial     of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash)     via vectors involving a NULL value for a certain match     field, related to the keyring_search_iterator function     in keyring.c (bnc#1030593).

  - CVE-2017-6951: The keyring_search_aux function in     security/keys/keyring.c in the Linux kernel allowed     local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and OOPS) via a request_key system call for     the 'dead' type (bnc#1029850).

  - CVE-2017-7482: A potential memory corruption was fixed     in decoding of krb5 principals in the kernels kerberos     handling. (bnc#1046107).

  - CVE-2017-7487: The ipxitf_ioctl function in     net/ipx/af_ipx.c in the Linux kernel mishandled     reference counts, which allowed local users to cause a     denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a failed SIOCGIFADDR ioctl     call for an IPX interface (bnc#1038879).

  - CVE-2017-7518: The Linux kernel was vulnerable to an     incorrect debug exception(#DB) error. It could occur     while emulating a syscall instruction and potentially     lead to guest privilege escalation. (bsc#1045922).

  - CVE-2017-7541: The brcmf_cfg80211_mgmt_tx function in     drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/cfg8021     1.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a     denial of service (buffer overflow and system crash) or     possibly gain privileges via a crafted NL80211_CMD_FRAME     Netlink packet (bnc#1049645).

  - CVE-2017-7542: The ip6_find_1stfragopt function in     net/ipv6/output_core.c in the Linux kernel allowed local     users to cause a denial of service (integer overflow and     infinite loop) by leveraging the ability to open a raw     socket (bnc#1049882).

  - CVE-2017-7889: The mm subsystem in the Linux kernel did     not properly enforce the CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM protection     mechanism, which allowed local users to read or write to     kernel memory locations in the first megabyte (and     bypass slab-allocation access restrictions) via an     application that opens the /dev/mem file, related to     arch/x86/mm/init.c and drivers/char/mem.c (bnc#1034405).

  - CVE-2017-8106: The handle_invept function in     arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the Linux kernel 3.12 allowed     privileged KVM guest OS users to cause a denial of     service (NULL pointer dereference and host OS crash) via     a single-context INVEPT instruction with a NULL EPT     pointer (bnc#1035877).

  - CVE-2017-8831: The saa7164_bus_get function in     drivers/media/pci/saa7164/saa7164-bus.c in the Linux     kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service     (out-of-bounds array access) or possibly have     unspecified other impact by changing a certain     sequence-number value, aka a 'double fetch'     vulnerability (bnc#1037994).

  - CVE-2017-8890: The inet_csk_clone_lock function in     net/ipv4/inet_connection_sock.c in the Linux kernel     allowed attackers to cause a denial of service (double     free) or possibly have unspecified other impact by     leveraging use of the accept system call (bnc#1038544).

  - CVE-2017-8924: The edge_bulk_in_callback function in     drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c in the Linux kernel allowed     local users to obtain sensitive information (in the     dmesg ringbuffer and syslog) from uninitialized kernel     memory by using a crafted USB device (posing as an io_ti     USB serial device) to trigger an integer underflow     (bnc#1037182 bsc#1038982).

  - CVE-2017-8925: The omninet_open function in     drivers/usb/serial/omninet.c in the Linux kernel allowed     local users to cause a denial of service (tty     exhaustion) by leveraging reference count mishandling     (bnc#1037183 bsc#1038981).

  - CVE-2017-9074: The IPv6 fragmentation implementation in     the Linux kernel did not consider that the nexthdr field     may be associated with an invalid option, which allowed     local users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds     read and BUG) or possibly have unspecified other impact     via crafted socket and send system calls (bnc#1039882).

  - CVE-2017-9075: The sctp_v6_create_accept_sk function in     net/sctp/ipv6.c in the Linux kernel mishandled     inheritance, which allowed local users to cause a denial     of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via     crafted system calls, a related issue to CVE-2017-8890     (bnc#1039883).

  - CVE-2017-9076: The dccp_v6_request_recv_sock function in     net/dccp/ipv6.c in the Linux kernel mishandled     inheritance, which allowed local users to cause a denial     of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via     crafted system calls, a related issue to CVE-2017-8890     (bnc#1039885).

  - CVE-2017-9077: The tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock function in     net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c in the Linux kernel mishandled     inheritance, which allowed local users to cause a denial     of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via     crafted system calls, a related issue to CVE-2017-8890     (bnc#1040069).

  - CVE-2017-9242: The __ip6_append_data function in     net/ipv6/ip6_output.c in the Linux kernel is too late in     checking whether an overwrite of an skb data structure     may occur, which allowed local users to cause a denial     of service (system crash) via crafted system calls     (bnc#1041431).

The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details.

According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's perf     subsystem retrieved userlevel stack traces on PowerPC     systems. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw     to cause a denial of service on the system by creating     a special stack layout that would force the     perf_callchain_user_64() function into an infinite     loop.(CVE-2015-6526i1/4%0

  - A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel. Payloads     of NM entries are not supposed to contain NUL. When     such entry is processed, only the part prior to the     first NUL goes into the concatenation (i.e. the     directory entry name being encoded by a bunch of NM     entries). The process stops when the amount collected     so far + the claimed amount in the current NM entry     exceed 254. However, the value returned as the total     length is the sum of *claimed* sizes, not the actual     amount collected. And that's what will be passed to     readdir() callback as the name length - 8Kb
    __copy_to_user() from a buffer allocated by
    __get_free_page().(CVE-2016-4913i1/4%0

  - The perf_trace_event_perm function in     kernel/trace/trace_event_perf.c in the Linux kernel     before 3.12.2 does not properly restrict access to the     perf subsystem, which allows local users to enable     function tracing via a crafted     application.(CVE-2013-2930i1/4%0

  - The mincore() implementation in mm/mincore.c in the     Linux kernel through 4.19.13 allowed local attackers to     observe page cache access patterns of other processes     on the same system, potentially allowing sniffing of     secret information. (Fixing this affects the output of     the fincore program.) Limited remote exploitation may     be possible, as demonstrated by latency differences in     accessing public files from an Apache HTTP     Server.(CVE-2019-5489i1/4%0

  - It was found that the espfix functionality could be     bypassed by installing a 16-bit RW data segment into     GDT instead of LDT (which espfix checks), and using     that segment on the stack. A local, unprivileged user     could potentially use this flaw to leak kernel stack     addresses.(CVE-2014-8133i1/4%0

  - An issue was discovered in the btrfs filesystem code in     the Linux kernel. An out-of-bounds access is possible     in write_extent_buffer() when mounting and operating a     crafted btrfs image due to a lack of verification at     mount time within the btrfs_read_block_groups() in     fs/btrfs/extent-tree.c function. This could lead to a     system crash and a denial of service.(CVE-2018-14610i1/4%0

  - kernel/bpf/verifier.c in the Linux kernel through     4.14.8 mishandles states_equal comparisons between the     pointer data type and the UNKNOWN_VALUE data type,     which allows local users to obtain potentially     sensitive address information, aka a 'pointer     leak.'(CVE-2017-17864i1/4%0

  - drivers/hid/hid-lenovo-tpkbd.c in the Human Interface     Device (HID) subsystem in the Linux kernel through     3.11, when CONFIG_HID_LENOVO_TPKBD is enabled, allows     physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of     service (heap-based out-of-bounds write) via a crafted     device.(CVE-2013-2894i1/4%0

  - Memory leak in the sas_smp_get_phy_events function in     drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_expander.c in the Linux kernel     allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel     memory exhaustion) via multiple read accesses to files     in the /sys/class/sas_phy directory.(CVE-2018-7757i1/4%0

  - It was found that the original fix for CVE-2016-6786     was incomplete. There exist a race between two     concurrent sys_perf_event_open() calls when both try     and move the same pre-existing software group into a     hardware context.(CVE-2017-6001i1/4%0

  - In the Linux kernel before 4.20.12,     net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_nat_snmp_basic_main.c in the SNMP     NAT module has insufficient ASN.1 length checks (aka an     array index error), making out-of-bounds read and write     operations possible, leading to an OOPS or local     privilege escalation. This affects snmp_version and     snmp_helper.(CVE-2019-9162i1/4%0

  - An information leak flaw was found in the way the Linux     kernel's Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA)     implementation handled access of the user control's     state. A local, privileged user could use this flaw to     leak kernel memory to user space.(CVE-2014-4652i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found that the vfs_rename() function did not     detect hard links on overlayfs. A local, unprivileged     user could use the rename syscall on overlayfs on top     of xfs to crash the system.(CVE-2016-6198i1/4%0

  - It was found that when file permissions were modified     via chmod and the user modifying them was not in the     owning group or capable of CAP_FSETID, the setgid bit     would be cleared. Setting a POSIX ACL via setxattr sets     the file permissions as well as the new ACL, but     doesn't clear the setgid bit in a similar way. This     could allow a local user to gain group privileges via     certain setgid applications.(CVE-2016-7097i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's Crypto     subsystem handled automatic loading of kernel modules.
    A local user could use this flaw to load any installed     kernel module, and thus increase the attack surface of     the running kernel.(CVE-2014-9644i1/4%0

  - An arbitrary memory r/w access issue was found in the     Linux kernel compiled with the eBPF bpf(2) system call     (CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL) support. The issue could occur due     to calculation errors in the eBPF verifier module,     triggered by user supplied malicious BPF program. An     unprivileged user could use this flaw to escalate their     privileges on a system. Setting parameter     'kernel.unprivileged_bpf_disabled=1' prevents such     privilege escalation by restricting access to bpf(2)     call.(CVE-2017-16995i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the implementation of associative     arrays where the add_key systemcall and KEYCTL_UPDATE     operations allowed for a NULL payload with a nonzero     length. When accessing the payload within this length     parameters value, an unprivileged user could trivially     cause a NULL pointer dereference (kernel     oops).(CVE-2017-15274i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's keyring handling     code: the key_reject_and_link() function could be     forced to free an arbitrary memory block. An attacker     could use this flaw to trigger a use-after-free     condition on the system, potentially allowing for     privilege escalation.(CVE-2016-4470i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the way certain interfaces of the     Linux kernel's Infiniband subsystem used write() as     bi-directional ioctl() replacement, which could lead to     insufficient memory security checks when being invoked     using the splice() system call. A local unprivileged     user on a system with either Infiniband hardware     present or RDMA Userspace Connection Manager Access     module explicitly loaded, could use this flaw to     escalate their privileges on the     system.(CVE-2016-4565i1/4%0

  - It was found that the Linux kernel's IPv6 network stack     did not properly validate the value of the MTU variable     when it was set. A remote attacker could potentially     use this flaw to disrupt a target system's networking     (packet loss) by setting an invalid MTU value, for     example, via a NetworkManager daemon that is processing     router advertisement packets running on the target     system.(CVE-2015-8215i1/4%0
