  - CVE-2015-7550: A local user could have triggered a race     between read and revoke in keyctl (bnc#958951).

  - CVE-2015-8569: The (1) pptp_bind and (2) pptp_connect     functions in drivers/net/ppp/pptp.c in the Linux kernel     did not verify an address length, which allowed local     users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory     and bypass the KASLR protection mechanism via a crafted     application (bnc#959190).

  - CVE-2015-8543: The networking implementation in the     Linux kernel did not validate protocol identifiers for     certain protocol families, which allowed local users to     cause a denial of service (NULL function pointer     dereference and system crash) or possibly gain     privileges by leveraging CLONE_NEWUSER support to     execute a crafted SOCK_RAW application (bnc#958886).

  - CVE-2014-8989: The Linux kernel did not properly     restrict dropping of supplemental group memberships in     certain namespace scenarios, which allowed local users     to bypass intended file permissions by leveraging a     POSIX ACL containing an entry for the group category     that is more restrictive than the entry for the other     category, aka a 'negative groups' issue, related to     kernel/groups.c, kernel/uid16.c, and     kernel/user_namespace.c (bnc#906545).

  - CVE-2015-5157: arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S in the Linux     kernel on the x86_64 platform mishandles IRET faults in     processing NMIs that occurred during userspace     execution, which might allow local users to gain     privileges by triggering an NMI (bnc#937969).

  - CVE-2015-7799: The slhc_init function in     drivers/net/slip/slhc.c in the Linux kernel through     4.2.3 did not ensure that certain slot numbers are     valid, which allowed local users to cause a denial of     service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via     a crafted PPPIOCSMAXCID ioctl call (bnc#949936).

  - CVE-2015-8104: The KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel     through 4.2.6, and Xen 4.3.x through 4.6.x, allowed     guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS     panic or hang) by triggering many #DB (aka Debug)     exceptions, related to svm.c (bnc#954404).

  - CVE-2015-5307: The KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel     through 4.2.6, and Xen 4.3.x through 4.6.x, allowed     guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS     panic or hang) by triggering many #AC (aka Alignment     Check) exceptions, related to svm.c and vmx.c     (bnc#953527).

  - CVE-2014-9529: Race condition in the key_gc_unused_keys     function in security/keys/gc.c in the Linux kernel     allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory     corruption or panic) or possibly have unspecified other     impact via keyctl commands that trigger access to a key     structure member during garbage collection of a key     (bnc#912202).

  - CVE-2015-7990: Race condition in the rds_sendmsg     function in net/rds/sendmsg.c in the Linux kernel     allowed local users to cause a denial of service (NULL     pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact by using a socket that was not     properly bound. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because     of an incomplete fix for CVE-2015-6937 (bnc#952384     953052).

  - CVE-2015-6937: The __rds_conn_create function in     net/rds/connection.c in the Linux kernel allowed local     users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and system crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact by using a socket that was not     properly bound (bnc#945825).

  - CVE-2015-7885: The dgnc_mgmt_ioctl function in     drivers/staging/dgnc/dgnc_mgmt.c in the Linux kernel     through 4.3.3 did not initialize a certain structure     member, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive     information from kernel memory via a crafted application     (bnc#951627).

  - CVE-2015-8215: net/ipv6/addrconf.c in the IPv6 stack in     the Linux kernel did not validate attempted changes to     the MTU value, which allowed context-dependent attackers     to cause a denial of service (packet loss) via a value     that is (1) smaller than the minimum compliant value or     (2) larger than the MTU of an interface, as demonstrated     by a Router Advertisement (RA) message that is not     validated by a daemon, a different vulnerability than     CVE-2015-0272. NOTE: the scope of CVE-2015-0272 is     limited to the NetworkManager product (bnc#955354).

  - CVE-2015-8767: A case can occur when sctp_accept() is     called by the user during a heartbeat timeout event     after the 4-way handshake. Since sctp_assoc_migrate()     changes both assoc->base.sk and assoc->ep, the     bh_sock_lock in sctp_generate_heartbeat_event() will be     taken with the listening socket but released with the     new association socket. The result is a deadlock on any     future attempts to take the listening socket lock.
    (bsc#961509)

  - CVE-2015-8575: Validate socket address length in     sco_sock_bind() to prevent information leak     (bsc#959399).

The Xen Project reports :

A malicious HVM guest administrator can cause a denial of service.
Specifically, prevent use of a physical CPU for a significant, perhaps indefinite period. If a host watchdog (Xen or dom0) is in use, this can lead to a watchdog timeout and consequently a reboot of the host.
If another, innocent, guest, is configured with a watchdog, this issue can lead to a reboot of such a guest.

This security update fixes a number of security issues in Xen in wheezy.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version 4.1.6.1-1+deb7u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your libidn packages.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2016:0046 advisory.

    The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux     operating system.

    * It was found that the x86 ISA (Instruction Set Architecture) is prone to     a denial of service attack inside a virtualized environment in the form of     an infinite loop in the microcode due to the way (sequential) delivering of     benign exceptions such as #AC (alignment check exception) and #DB (debug     exception) is handled. A privileged user inside a guest could use these     flaws to create denial of service conditions on the host kernel.
    (CVE-2015-5307, CVE-2015-8104, Important)

    Red Hat would like to thank Ben Serebrin of Google Inc. for reporting the     CVE-2015-5307 issue.

    All kernel users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which     contain backported patches to correct these issues. The system must be     rebooted for this update to take effect.

The Oracle VM VirtualBox application installed on the remote host is a version prior to 4.0.36, 4.1.44, 4.2.36, 4.3.34, or 5.0.10. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists due to an     infinite loop condition in the KVM subsystem of the Linux     kernel. A local attacker can exploit this, by triggering     many Alignment Check (#AC) exceptions, to cause an OS     panic or hang. (CVE-2015-5307)

  - A integer overflow condition exists in the     PL_ARENA_ALLOCATE implementation in Netscape Portable     Runtime (NSPR) due to a failure to properly validate     user-supplied input during memory allocation. A remote     attacker can exploit this to corrupt memory, resulting     in a denial of service or execution of arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2015-7183)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists due to an     infinite loop condition in the KVM subsystem of the Linux     kernel. A local attacker can exploit this, by triggering     many Debug (#DB) exceptions, to cause an OS panic or hang.

NOTE: the vendor states 'there is no     kernel bug here (bnc#959709).

  - CVE-2015-8767: net/sctp/sm_sideeffect.c in the Linux     kernel did not properly manage the relationship between     a lock and a socket, which allowed local users to cause     a denial of service (deadlock) via a crafted sctp_accept     call. (bsc#961509)

  - CVE-2015-8785: The fuse_fill_write_pages function in     fs/fuse/file.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users     to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a     writev system call that triggers a zero length for the     first segment of an iov (bnc#963765).

  - CVE-2015-8787: The nf_nat_redirect_ipv4 function in     net/netfilter/nf_nat_redirect.c in the Linux kernel     allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly     have unspecified other impact by sending certain IPv4     packets to an incompletely configured interface, a     related issue to CVE-2003-1604 (bnc#963931).

  - CVE-2015-8812: A flaw was found in the CXGB3 kernel     driver when the network was considered congested. The     kernel would incorrectly misinterpret the congestion as     an error condition and incorrectly free/clean up the     skb. When the device would then send the skb's queued,     these structures would be referenced and may panic the     system or allow an attacker to escalate privileges in a     use-after-free scenario. (bsc#966437).

  - CVE-2016-0723: Race condition in the tty_ioctl function     in drivers/tty/tty_io.c in the Linux kernel allowed     local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel     memory or cause a denial of service (use-after-free and     system crash) by making a TIOCGETD ioctl call during     processing of a TIOCSETD ioctl call (bnc#961500).

  - CVE-2016-2069: When Linux invalidated a paging structure     that is not in use locally, it could, in principle, race     against another CPU that is switching to a process that     uses the paging structure in question. (bsc#963767)

  - CVE-2016-2184: A malicious USB device could cause a     kernel crash in the alsa usb-audio driver. (bsc#971125)

  - CVE-2016-2383: Incorrect branch fixups for eBPF allow     arbitrary read of kernel memory. (bsc#966684)

  - CVE-2016-2384: A malicious USB device could cause a     kernel crash in the alsa usb-audio driver. (bsc#966693)

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2016:0103 advisory.

    The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux     operating system.

    * It was found that the x86 ISA (Instruction Set Architecture) is prone to     a denial of service attack inside a virtualized environment in the form of     an infinite loop in the microcode due to the way (sequential) delivering of     benign exceptions such as #DB (debug exception) is handled. A privileged     user inside a guest could use this flaw to create denial of service     conditions on the host kernel. (CVE-2015-8104, Important)

    * A use-after-free flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's key     management subsystem handled keyring object reference counting in certain     error path of the join_session_keyring() function. A local, unprivileged     user could use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system.
    (CVE-2016-0728, Important)

    * It was found that the fix for CVE-2015-1805 incorrectly kept buffer     offset and buffer length in sync on a failed atomic read, potentially     resulting in a pipe buffer state corruption. A local, unprivileged user     could use this flaw to crash the system or leak kernel memory to user     space. (CVE-2016-0774, Moderate)

    Red Hat would like to thank the Perception Point research team for     reporting the CVE-2016-0728 issue. The security impact of the CVE-2016-0774     issue was discovered by Red Hat.

    Bug fixes:

    * NMI watchdog of guests using legacy LVT0-based NMI delivery did not work     with APICv. Now, NMI works with LVT0 regardless of APICv. (BZ#1244726)

    * Parallel file-extending direct I/O writes could previously race to update     the size of the file. If they executed out-of-order, the file size could     move backwards and push a previously completed write beyond the end of the     file, causing it to be lost. (BZ#1258942)

    * The GHES NMI handler had a global spin lock that significantly increased     the latency of each perf sample collection. This update simplifies locking     inside the handler. (BZ#1280200)

    * Sometimes, iptables rules are updated along with ip rules, and routes are     reloaded. Previously, skb->sk was mistakenly attached to some IPv6     forwarding traffic packets, which could cause kernel panic. Now, such     packets are checked and not processed. (BZ#1281700)

    * The NUMA node was not reported for PCI adapters, which affected every     POWER system deployed with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 and caused     significant decrease in the system performance. (BZ#1283525)

    * Processing packets with a lot of different IPv6 source addresses caused     the kernel to return warnings concerning soft-lockups due to high lock     contention and latency increase. (BZ#1285369)

    * Running edge triggered interrupts with an ack notifier when     simultaneously reconfiguring the Intel I/O IOAPIC did not work correctly,     so EOI in the interrupt did not cause a VM to exit if APICv was enabled.
    Consequently, the VM sometimes became unresponsive. (BZ#1287001)

    * Block device readahead was artificially limited, so the read performance     was poor, especially on RAID devices. Now, per-device readahead limits are     used for each device, which has improved read performance. (BZ#1287548)

    * Identical expectations could not be tracked simultaneously even if they     resided in different connection tracking zones. Now, an expectation insert     attempt is rejected only if the zone is also identical. (BZ#1290093)

    * The storvsc kernel driver for Microsoft Hyper-V storage was setting     incorrect SRB flags, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 guests running on     Microsoft Hyper-V were experiencing slow I/O as well as I/O failures when     they were connected to a virtual SAN. Now, SRB flags are set correctly.
    (BZ#1290095)

    * When a NUMA system with no memory in node 0 was used, the system     terminated unexpectedly during boot or when using OpenVSwitch. Now, the     kernel tries to allocate memory from other nodes when node 0 is not     present. (BZ#1300950)

    Enhancement:

    * IPsec has been updated to provide many fixes and some enhancements.
    Of particular note is the ability to match on outgoing interfaces.
    (BZ#1287407)

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 openSUSE 13.2 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.

Following security bugs were fixed :

  - CVE-2016-0728: A reference leak in keyring handling with     join_session_keyring() could lead to local attackers     gain root privileges. (bsc#962075).

  - CVE-2015-7550: A local user could have triggered a race     between read and revoke in keyctl (bnc#958951).

  - CVE-2015-8569: The (1) pptp_bind and (2) pptp_connect     functions in drivers/net/ppp/pptp.c in the Linux kernel     did not verify an address length, which allowed local     users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory     and bypass the KASLR protection mechanism via a crafted     application (bnc#959190).

  - CVE-2015-8543: The networking implementation in the     Linux kernel did not validate protocol identifiers for     certain protocol families, which allowed local users to     cause a denial of service (NULL function pointer     dereference and system crash) or possibly gain     privileges by leveraging CLONE_NEWUSER support to     execute a crafted SOCK_RAW application (bnc#958886).

  - CVE-2014-8989: The Linux kernel did not properly     restrict dropping of supplemental group memberships in     certain namespace scenarios, which allowed local users     to bypass intended file permissions by leveraging a     POSIX ACL containing an entry for the group category     that is more restrictive than the entry for the other     category, aka a 'negative groups' issue, related to     kernel/groups.c, kernel/uid16.c, and     kernel/user_namespace.c (bnc#906545).

  - CVE-2015-5157: arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S in the Linux     kernel on the x86_64 platform mishandles IRET faults in     processing NMIs that occurred during userspace     execution, which might allow local users to gain     privileges by triggering an NMI (bnc#937969).

  - CVE-2015-7799: The slhc_init function in     drivers/net/slip/slhc.c in the Linux kernel through     4.2.3 did not ensure that certain slot numbers are     valid, which allowed local users to cause a denial of     service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via     a crafted PPPIOCSMAXCID ioctl call (bnc#949936).

  - CVE-2015-8104: The KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel     through 4.2.6, and Xen 4.3.x through 4.6.x, allowed     guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS     panic or hang) by triggering many #DB (aka Debug)     exceptions, related to svm.c (bnc#954404).

  - CVE-2015-5307: The KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel     through 4.2.6, and Xen 4.3.x through 4.6.x, allowed     guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS     panic or hang) by triggering many #AC (aka Alignment     Check) exceptions, related to svm.c and vmx.c     (bnc#953527).

  - CVE-2014-9529: Race condition in the key_gc_unused_keys     function in security/keys/gc.c in the Linux kernel     allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory     corruption or panic) or possibly have unspecified other     impact via keyctl commands that trigger access to a key     structure member during garbage collection of a key     (bnc#912202).

  - CVE-2015-7990: Race condition in the rds_sendmsg     function in net/rds/sendmsg.c in the Linux kernel     allowed local users to cause a denial of service (NULL     pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact by using a socket that was not     properly bound. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because     of an incomplete fix for CVE-2015-6937 (bnc#952384     953052).

  - CVE-2015-6937: The __rds_conn_create function in     net/rds/connection.c in the Linux kernel allowed local     users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and system crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact by using a socket that was not     properly bound (bnc#945825).

  - CVE-2015-7885: The dgnc_mgmt_ioctl function in     drivers/staging/dgnc/dgnc_mgmt.c in the Linux kernel     through 4.3.3 did not initialize a certain structure     member, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive     information from kernel memory via a crafted application     (bnc#951627).

  - CVE-2015-8215: net/ipv6/addrconf.c in the IPv6 stack in     the Linux kernel did not validate attempted changes to     the MTU value, which allowed context-dependent attackers     to cause a denial of service (packet loss) via a value     that is (1) smaller than the minimum compliant value or     (2) larger than the MTU of an interface, as demonstrated     by a Router Advertisement (RA) message that is not     validated by a daemon, a different vulnerability than     CVE-2015-0272. NOTE: the scope of CVE-2015-0272 is     limited to the NetworkManager product (bnc#955354).

  - CVE-2015-8767: A case can occur when sctp_accept() is     called by the user during a heartbeat timeout event     after the 4-way handshake. Since sctp_assoc_migrate()     changes both assoc->base.sk and assoc->ep, the     bh_sock_lock in sctp_generate_heartbeat_event() will be     taken with the listening socket but released with the     new association socket. The result is a deadlock on any     future attempts to take the listening socket lock.
    (bsc#961509)

  - CVE-2015-8575: Validate socket address length in     sco_sock_bind() to prevent information leak     (bsc#959399).

  - CVE-2015-8551, CVE-2015-8552: xen/pciback: For     XEN_PCI_OP_disable_msi[|x] only disable if device has     MSI(X) enabled (bsc#957990).

  - CVE-2015-8550: Compiler optimizations in the XEN PV     backend drivers could have lead to double fetch     vulnerabilities, causing denial of service or arbitrary     code execution (depending on the configuration)     (bsc#957988).

The following non-security bugs were fixed :

  - ALSA: hda - Disable 64bit address for Creative HDA     controllers (bnc#814440).

  - ALSA: hda - Fix noise problems on Thinkpad T440s     (boo#958504).
