CVE-2013-0231

This kernel update provides the upstream 3.4.52 kernel and fixes the following security issues:

The pciback_enable_msi function in the PCI backend driver (drivers/xen/pciback/conf_space_capability_msi.c) in Xen for the Linux kernel 2.6.18 and 3.8 allows guest OS users with PCI device access to cause a denial of service via a large number of kernel log messages. (CVE-2013-0231 / XSA-43)

ipv6: ip6_sk_dst_check() must not assume ipv6 dst It's possible to use AF_INET6 sockets and to connect to an IPv4 destination. After this, socket dst cache is a pointer to a rtable, not rt6_info. This bug can be exploited by local non-root users to trigger various corruptions/crashes (CVE-2013-2232)

af_key: fix info leaks in notify messages key_notify_sa_flush() and key_notify_policy_flush() miss to initialize the sadb_msg_reserved member of the broadcasted message and thereby leak 2 bytes of heap memory to listeners (CVE-2013-2234)

af_key: initialize satype in key_notify_policy_flush() key_notify_policy_flush() miss to nitialize the sadb_msg_satype member of the broadcasted message and thereby leak heap memory to listeners (CVE-2013-2237)

Heap-based buffer overflow in the iscsi_add_notunderstood_response function in drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target_parameters.c in the iSCSI target subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.9.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and OOPS) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long key that is not properly handled during construction of an error-response packet. A reproduction case requires patching open-iscsi to send overly large keys. Performing discovery in a loop will Oops the remote server. (CVE-2013-2850)

Format string vulnerability in the b43_request_firmware function in drivers/net/wireless/b43/main.c in the Broadcom B43 wireless driver in the Linux kernel through 3.9.4 allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging root access and including format string specifiers in an fwpostfix modprobe parameter, leading to improper construction of an error message. (CVE-2013-2852)

These are all security issues fixed in the kernel-debug-4.8.13-1.1 package on the GA media of openSUSE Tumbleweed.

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 Service Pack 2 kernel was updated to fix a regression introduced by the previous update:

* scsi_dh_alua: Incorrect reference counting in the SCSI ALUA
  initialization code lead to system crashes on boot (bnc#858831).

As the update introducing the regression was marked security, this is also marked security even though this bug is not security relevant.

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 SP1 Teradata kernel was updated to fix bugs and security issues.

Following security issues were fixed:

CVE-2011-1083: Limit the path length users can build using epoll() to avoid local attackers consuming lots of kernel CPU time.

CVE-2011-4086: Fixed a oops in jbd/jbd2 that could be caused by specific filesystem access patterns.

CVE-2011-4622: KVM: Prevent starting PIT timers in the absence of irqchip support.

CVE-2012-0045: KVM: Extend 'struct x86_emulate_ops' with 'get_cpuid' and fix missing checks in syscall emulation.

CVE-2012-0879: Fix io_context leak after clone with CLONE_IO.

CVE-2012-1090: Fixed a dentry refcount leak in the CIFS file system that could lead to a crash on unmount.

CVE-2012-1097: The regset common infrastructure assumed that regsets would always have .get and .set methods, but necessarily .active methods. Unfortunately people have since written regsets without .set method, so NULL pointer dereference attacks were possible.

Following non-security issues were fixed:

* SCSI inquiry doesn't return data on SLES 11-SP1 Xen VMs (bnc#745929).
* FC transport driver killing off the timers/work queues (bnc#734300).
* The driver ixgbevf doesn't work on newer SLES 11-SP1 kernels
  (bnc#752972).
* Pack sparsemem memmap sections closer together and in higher zones
  (bnc#743870).

Following feature was implemented:

* The megaraid_sas driver update to version 5.40-LSI (bnc#736813).

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 SP4 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.

Four new speculative execution information leak issues have been identified in Intel CPUs. (bsc#1111331)

• CVE-2018-12126: Microarchitectural Store Buffer Data Sampling (MSBDS)
• CVE-2018-12127: Microarchitectural Fill Buffer Data Sampling (MFBDS)
• CVE-2018-12130: Microarchitectural Load Port Data Samling (MLPDS)
• CVE-2019-11091: Microarchitectural Data Sampling Uncacheable Memory (MDSUM)

This kernel update contains software mitigations for these issues, which also utilize CPU microcode updates shipped in parallel.

For more information on this set of information leaks, check out https://www.suse.com/support/kb/doc/?id=7023736

The following security bugs were fixed:

• CVE-2019-9213: The expand_downwards function in mm/mmap.c lacked a check for the mmap minimum address, which made it easier for attackers to exploit kernel NULL pointer dereferences on non-SMAP platforms. This is related to a capability check for the wrong task (bnc#1128166).
• CVE-2013-0216: The Xen netback functionality allowed guest OS users to cause a denial of service (loop) by triggering ring pointer corruption (bnc#800280).
• CVE-2013-0231: The pciback_enable_msi function in the PCI backend driver (drivers/xen/pciback/conf_space_capability_msi.c) in Xen allowed guest OS users with PCI device access to cause a denial of service via a large number of kernel log messages. (bnc#801178).
• CVE-2012-3430: The rds_recvmsg function in net/rds/recv.c did not initialize a certain structure member, which allowed local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a recvfrom or recvmsg system call on an RDS socket (bnc#773383).
• CVE-2012-3412: The sfc (aka Solarflare Solarstorm) driver allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (DMA descriptor consumption and network-controller outage) via crafted TCP packets that trigger a small MSS value (bnc#774523).
• CVE-2013-0160: The kernel allowed local users to obtain sensitive information about keystroke timing by using the inotify API on the /dev/ptmx device (bnc#797175).
• CVE-2013-1979: The scm_set_cred function in include/net/scm.h uses incorrect uid and gid values during credentials passing, which allowed local users to gain privileges via a crafted application (bnc#816708).

The following non-security bugs were fixed:

• Add opcodes from net: filter: BPF 'JIT' compiler for PPC64 (bsc#1131107).
• EHCI: improved logic for isochronous scheduling (bsc#1117515).
• KVM: x86: Use jmp to invoke kvm_spurious_fault() from .fixup (bsc#1129439).
• USB: Add new USB LPM helpers (bsc#1129770).
• USB: Consolidate LPM checks to avoid enabling LPM twice (bsc#1129770).
