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

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

CVE-2018-13093, CVE-2018-13094

Wen Xu from SSLab at Gatech reported several NULL pointer dereference flaws that may be triggered when mounting and operating a crafted XFS volume. An attacker able to mount arbitrary XFS volumes could use this to cause a denial of service (crash).

CVE-2018-20976

It was discovered that the XFS file-system implementation did not correctly handle some mount failure conditions, which could lead to a use-after-free. The security impact of this is unclear.

CVE-2018-21008

It was discovered that the rsi wifi driver did not correctly handle some failure conditions, which could lead to a use-after- free. The security impact of this is unclear.

CVE-2019-0136

It was discovered that the wifi soft-MAC implementation (mac80211) did not properly authenticate Tunneled Direct Link Setup (TDLS) messages.
A nearby attacker could use this for denial of service (loss of wifi connectivity).

CVE-2019-2215

The syzkaller tool discovered a use-after-free vulnerability in the Android binder driver. A local user on a system with this driver enabled could use this to cause a denial of service (memory corruption or crash) or possibly for privilege escalation. However, this driver is not enabled on Debian packaged kernels.

CVE-2019-10220

Various developers and researchers found that if a crafted file- system or malicious file server presented a directory with filenames including a '/' character, this could confuse and possibly defeat security checks in applications that read the directory.

The kernel will now return an error when reading such a directory, rather than passing the invalid filenames on to user-space.
