CVE-2018-13094

An issue was discovered in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_attr_leaf.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3. An OOPS may occur for a corrupted xfs image after xfs_da_shrink_inode() is called with a NULL bp.

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP3 kernel was updated to 4.4.155 to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed:

• CVE-2018-13093: Prevent NULL pointer dereference and panic in lookup_slow() on a NULL inode->i_ops pointer when doing pathwalks on a corrupted xfs image. This occured because of a lack of proper validation that cached inodes are free during allocation (bnc#1100001).
• CVE-2018-13095: Prevent denial of service (memory corruption and BUG) that could have occurred for a corrupted xfs image upon encountering an inode that is in extent format, but has more extents than fit in the inode fork (bnc#1099999).
• CVE-2018-13094: Prevent OOPS that may have occured for a corrupted xfs image after xfs_da_shrink_inode() is called with a NULL bp (bnc#1100000).
• CVE-2018-12896: Prevent integer overflow in the POSIX timer code that was caused by the way the overrun accounting works. Depending on interval and expiry time values, the overrun can be larger than INT_MAX, but the accounting is int based. This basically made the accounting values, which are visible to user space via timer_getoverrun(2) and siginfo::si_overrun, random. This allowed a local user to cause a denial of service (signed integer overflow) via crafted mmap, futex, timer_create, and timer_settime system calls (bnc#1099922).
• CVE-2018-16658: Prevent information leak in cdrom_ioctl_drive_status that could have been used by local attackers to read kernel memory (bnc#1107689).
• CVE-2018-6555: The irda_setsockopt function allowed local users to cause a denial of service (ias_object use-after-free and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via an AF_IRDA socket (bnc#1106511).
• CVE-2018-6554: Prevent memory leak in the irda_bind function that allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by repeatedly binding an AF_IRDA socket (bnc#1106509).
• CVE-2018-1129: A flaw was found in the way signature calculation was handled by cephx authentication protocol. An attacker having access to ceph cluster network who is able to alter the message payload was able to bypass signature checks done by cephx protocol (bnc#1096748).
• CVE-2018-1128: It was found that cephx authentication protocol did not verify ceph clients correctly and was vulnerable to replay attack. Any attacker having access to ceph cluster network who is able to sniff packets on network can use this vulnerability to authenticate with ceph service and perform actions allowed by ceph service (bnc#1096748).
• CVE-2018-10938: A crafted network packet sent remotely by an attacker forced the kernel to enter an infinite loop in the cipso_v4_optptr() function leading to a denial-of-service (bnc#1106016).
• CVE-2018-15572: The spectre_v2_select_mitigation function did not always fill RSB upon a context switch, which made it easier for attackers to conduct userspace-userspace spectreRSB attacks (bnc#1102517).
• CVE-2018-10902: Protect against concurrent access to prevent double realloc (double free) in snd_rawmidi_input_params() and snd_rawmidi_output_status(). A malicious local attacker could have used this for privilege escalation (bnc#1105322 1105323).
• CVE-2018-9363: Prevent buffer overflow in hidp_process_report (bsc#1105292)
• CVE-2018-10883: A local user could have caused an out-of-bounds write in jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata(), a denial of service, and a system crash by mounting and operating on a crafted ext4 filesystem image (bsc#1099863).
• CVE-2018-10879: A local user could have caused a use-after-free in ext4_xattr_set_entry function and a denial of service or unspecified other impact by renaming a file in a crafted ext4 filesystem image (bsc#1099844).
• CVE-2018-10878: A local user could have caused an out-of-bounds write and a denial of service or unspecified other impact by mounting and operating a crafted ext4 filesystem image (bsc#1099813). -…

• CVE-2018-10883: A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ext4 filesystem. A local user can cause an out-of-bounds write in jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata(), a denial of service, and a system crash by mounting and operating on a crafted ext4 filesystem image. (bnc#1099863)
• CVE-2018-10902: It was found that the raw midi kernel driver did not protect against concurrent access which leads to a double realloc (double free) in snd_rawmidi_input_params() and snd_rawmidi_output_status() which are part of snd_rawmidi_ioctl() handler in rawmidi.c file. A malicious local attacker could possibly use this for privilege escalation (bnc#1105322).
• CVE-2018-10938: A crafted network packet sent remotely by an attacker may force the kernel to enter an infinite loop in the cipso_v4_optptr() function in net/ipv4/cipso_ipv4.c leading to a denial-of-service. A certain non-default configuration of LSM (Linux Security Module) and NetLabel should be set up on a system before an attacker could leverage this flaw (bnc#1106016).
• CVE-2018-10940: The cdrom_ioctl_media_changed function in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c allowed local attackers to use a incorrect bounds check in the CDROM driver CDROM_MEDIA_CHANGED ioctl to read out kernel memory (bnc#1092903).
• CVE-2018-12896: An Integer Overflow in kernel/time/posix-timers.c in the POSIX timer code is caused by the way the overrun accounting works. Depending on interval and expiry time values, the overrun can be larger than INT_MAX, but the accounting is int based. This basically made the accounting values, which are visible to user space via timer_getoverrun(2) and siginfo::si_overrun, random. For example, a local user can cause a denial of service (signed integer overflow) via crafted mmap, futex, timer_create, and timer_settime system calls (bnc#1099922).
