CVE-2022-39377

sysstat is a set of system performance tools for the Linux operating system. On 32 bit systems, in versions 9.1.16 and newer but prior to 12.7.1, allocate_structures contains a size_t overflow in sa_common.c. The allocate_structures function insufficiently checks bounds before arithmetic multiplication, allowing for an overflow in the size allocated for the buffer representing system activities. This issue may lead to Remote Code Execution (RCE). This issue has been patched in version 12.7.1.

This issue may lead to Remote Code Execution (RCE). This issue has been patched in version 12.7.1.

The sysstat package contains various utilities, common to many commercial Unixes, to monitor system performance and usage activity:iostat: reports CPU statistics and input/output statistics for block devices and partitions.mpstat: reports individual or combined processor related statistics.pidstat: reports statistics for Linux tasks (processes) : I/O, CPU, memory, etc.tapestat: reports statistics for tape drives connected to the system.cifsiostat: reports CIFS statistics.Sysstat also contains tools you can schedule via cron or systemd to collect and historize performance and activity data:sar： collects, reports and saves system activity information (see below a list of metrics collected by sar).sadc： is the system activity data collector, used as a backend for sar.sa1： collects and stores binary data in the system activity daily data file. It is a front end to sadc designed to be run from cron or systemd.sa2： writes asummarized daily activity report. It is a front end to sar designed to be run from cron or systemd.sadf： displays data collected by sar in multiple formats (CSV, XML, JSON, etc.) and can be used for data exchange with other programs. This command can also be used to draw graphs for the various activities collected by sar using SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) format.

The sysstat packages provide the sar and iostat commands. These commands enable system monitoring of disk, network, and other I/O activity.

Security Fix(es):

• sysstat: arithmetic overflow in allocate_structures() on 32 bit systems (CVE-2022-39377)

This update for sysstat fixes the following issues:

• CVE-2023-33204: Fixed a multiplication integer overflow in check_overflow in common.c (bsc#1211507)
• CVE-2022-39377: Fixed arithmetic overflow in allocate_structures() (bsc#1205224)

It was discovered that Sysstat did not properly check bounds when perfoming certain arithmetic operations on 32 bit systems. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a crash or arbitrary code execution.

It was discovered that Sysstat incorrectly handled certain arithmetic multiplications. An attacker could use this issue to cause Sysstat to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.

It was discovered that Sysstat incorrectly handled certain arithmetic multiplications. An attacker could use this issue to cause Sysstat to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue was only fixed for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. (CVE-2022-39377)
