CVE-2014-7841

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 Service Pack 3 kernel has been updated to fix various bugs and security issues.

The following security bugs have been fixed:

* 

  CVE-2014-1739: The media_device_enum_entities function in
  drivers/media/media-device.c in the Linux kernel before 3.14.6 does
  not initialize a certain data structure, which allows local users to
  obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by leveraging
  /dev/media0 read access for a MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_ENTITIES ioctl call
  (bnc#882804).

* 

  CVE-2014-4171: mm/shmem.c in the Linux kernel through 3.15.1 does not
  properly implement the interaction between range notification and
  hole punching, which allows local users to cause a denial of service
  (i_mutex hold) by using the mmap system call to access a hole, as
  demonstrated by interfering with intended shmem activity by blocking
  completion of (1) an MADV_REMOVE madvise call or (2) an
  FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE fallocate call (bnc#883518).

* 

  CVE-2014-4508: arch/x86/kernel/entry_32.S in the Linux kernel through
  3.15.1 on 32-bit x86 platforms, when syscall auditing is enabled and
  the sep CPU feature flag is set, allows local users to cause a denial
  of service (OOPS and system crash) via an invalid syscall number, as
  demonstrated by number 1000 (bnc#883724).

* 

  CVE-2014-4667: The sctp_association_free function in
  net/sctp/associola.c in the Linux kernel before 3.15.2 does not
  properly manage a certain backlog value, which allows remote
  attackers to cause a denial of service (socket outage) via a crafted
  SCTP packet (bnc#885422).

* 

  CVE-2014-4943: The PPPoL2TP feature in net/l2tp/l2tp_ppp.c in the
  Linux kernel through 3.15.6 allows local users to gain privileges by
  leveraging data-structure differences between an l2tp socket and an
  inet socket (bnc#887082).

* 

  CVE-2014-5077: The sctp_assoc_update function in net/sctp/associola.c
  in the Linux kernel through 3.15.8, when SCTP authentication is
  enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL
  pointer dereference and OOPS) by starting to establish an association
  between two endpoints immediately after an exchange of INIT and INIT
  ACK chunks to establish an earlier association between these
  endpoints in the opposite direction (bnc#889173).

* 

  CVE-2014-5471: Stack consumption vulnerability in the
  parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal function in fs/isofs/rock.c in the
  Linux kernel through 3.16.1 allows local users to cause a denial of
  service (uncontrolled recursion, and system crash or reboot) via a
  crafted iso9660 image with a CL entry referring to a directory entry
  that has a CL entry. (bnc#892490)

* 

  CVE-2014-5472: The parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal function in
  fs/isofs/rock.c in the Linux kernel through 3.16.1 allows local users
  to cause a denial of service (unkillable mount process) via a crafted
  iso9660 image with a self-referential CL entry. (bnc#892490)

* 

  CVE-2014-2706: Race condition in the mac80211 subsystem in the Linux
  kernel before 3.13.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
  service (system crash) via network traffic that improperly interacts
  with the WLAN_STA_PS_STA state (aka power-save mode), related to
  sta_info.c and tx.c. (bnc#871797)

* 

  CVE-2014-4027: The rd_build_device_space function in
  drivers/target/target_core_rd.c in the Linux kernel before 3.14 does
  not properly initialize a certain data structure, which allows local
  users to obtain sensitive information from ramdisk_mcp memory by
  leveraging access to a SCSI initiator. (bnc#882639)

* 

  CVE-2014-3153 The futex_requeue function in kernel/futex.c in the
  Linux kernel through 3.14.5 does not ensure that…

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 12 kernel was updated to 3.12.38 to receive various security and bugfixes.

This update contains the following feature enablements:

• The remote block device (rbd) and ceph drivers have been enabled and are now supported. (FATE#318350) These can be used e.g. for accessing the SUSE Enterprise Storage product services.

• Support for Intel Select Bay trail CPUs has been added. (FATE#316038)

Following security issues were fixed:

• CVE-2014-9419: The __switch_to function in arch/x86/kernel/process_64.c in the Linux kernel through 3.18.1 did not ensure that Thread Local Storage (TLS) descriptors were loaded before proceeding with other steps, which made it easier for local users to bypass the ASLR protection mechanism via a crafted application that reads a TLS base address (bnc#911326).

• CVE-2014-7822: A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernels splice() system call validated its parameters. On certain file systems, a local, unprivileged user could have used this flaw to write past the maximum file size, and thus crash the system.

• CVE-2014-8160: The connection tracking module could be bypassed if a specific protocol module was not loaded, e.g. allowing SCTP traffic while the firewall should have filtered it.

• CVE-2014-9584: The parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal function in fs/isofs/rock.c in the Linux kernel before 3.18.2 did not validate a length value in the Extensions Reference (ER) System Use Field, which allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a crafted iso9660 image (bnc#912654).

The following non-security bugs were fixed:

• audit: Allow login in non-init namespaces (bnc#916107).

• btrfs: improve free space cache management and space allocation.
• btrfs: make btrfs_search_forward return with nodes unlocked.
• btrfs: scrub, fix sleep in atomic context (bnc#915456).
• btrfs: unlock nodes earlier when inserting items in a btree.
• drm/i915: On G45 enable cursor plane briefly after enabling the display plane (bnc#918161).
• Fix Module.supported handling for external modules (bnc#905304).

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 LTSS kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed:

• CVE-2021-37159: hso_free_net_device in drivers/net/usb/hso.c called unregister_netdev without checking for the NETREG_REGISTERED state, leading to a use-after-free and a double free (bnc#1188601).
• CVE-2021-3772: Fixed sctp vtag check in sctp_sf_ootb (bsc#1190351).
• CVE-2021-3655: Missing size validations on inbound SCTP packets may have allowed the kernel to read uninitialized memory (bnc#1188563 bnc#1192267).
• CVE-2014-7841: The sctp_process_param function in net/sctp/sm_make_chunk.c in the SCTP implementation, when ASCONF is used, allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a malformed INIT chunk (bnc#904899 bnc#905100).
• CVE-2021-20265: A flaw was found in the way memory resources were freed in the unix_stream_recvmsg function when a signal was pending. This flaw allowed an unprivileged local user to crash the system by exhausting available memory. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability (bnc#1183089).
• CVE-2021-42739: The firewire subsystem had a buffer overflow related to drivers/media/firewire/firedtv-avc.c and drivers/media/firewire/firedtv-ci.c, because avc_ca_pmt mishandled bounds checking (bnc#1184673 bnc#1192036).
• CVE-2021-33033: The Linux kernel has a use-after-free in cipso_v4_genopt in net/ipv4/cipso_ipv4.c because the CIPSO and CALIPSO refcounting for the DOI definitions is mishandled, aka CID-ad5d07f4a9cd. This leads to writing an arbitrary value (bnc#1186109 bnc#1188876).
• CVE-2021-43389: There was an array-index-out-of-bounds flaw in the detach_capi_ctr function in drivers/isdn/capi/kcapi.c (bnc#1191958).
• CVE-2021-42008: The decode_data function in drivers/net/hamradio/6pack.c had a slab out-of-bounds write. Input from a process that has the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability can lead to root access (bnc#1191315).
• CVE-2021-38160: Data corruption or loss could be triggered by an untrusted device that supplies a buf->len value exceeding the buffer size in drivers/char/virtio_console.c (bsc#1190117)
• CVE-2021-3640: Fixed a Use-After-Free vulnerability in function sco_sock_sendmsg() in the bluetooth stack (bsc#1188172).
• CVE-2021-38198: arch/x86/kvm/mmu/paging_tmpl.h incorrectly computed the access permissions of a shadow page, leading to a missing guest protection page fault (bnc#1189262).
• CVE-2021-3653: A flaw was found in the KVM's AMD code for supporting SVM nested virtualization. The flaw occurs when processing the VMCB (virtual machine control block) provided by the L1 guest to spawn/handle a nested guest (L2). Due to improper validation of the 'int_ctl' field, this issue could allow a malicious L1 to enable AVIC support (Advanced Virtual Interrupt Controller) for the L2 guest. As a result, the L2 guest would be allowed to read/write physical pages of the host, resulting in a crash of the entire system, leak of sensitive data or potential guest-to-host escape. (bnc#1189399).
• CVE-2021-3679: A lack of CPU resource in the Linux kernel tracing module functionality was found in the way user uses trace ring buffer in a specific way. Only privileged local users (with CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability) could use this flaw to starve the resources causing denial of service (bnc#1189057).
• CVE-2021-3609: A potential local privilege escalation in the CAN BCM networking protocol was fixed (bsc#1187215).
• CVE-2020-36385: drivers/infiniband/core/ucma.c has a use-after-free because the ctx is reached via the ctx_list in some ucma_migrate_id situations where ucma_close is called, aka CID-f5449e74802c (bnc#1187050).

The following non-security bugs were fixed:

• sctp: check asoc peer.asconf_capable before processing asconf (bsc#1190351).
• sctp: fully initialize v4 addr in some functions (bsc#1188563).
• sctp: simplify addr copy (bsc#1188563).

The sctp_process_param function in net/sctp/sm_make_chunk.c in the SCTP implementation in the Linux kernel before 3.17.4, when ASCONF is used, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a malformed INIT chunk.

A null pointer dereference flaw was discovered in the the Linux kernel's SCTP implementation when ASCONF is used. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a malformed INIT chunk. (CVE-2014-7841)

A race condition with MMIO and PIO transactions in the KVM (Kernel Virtual Machine) subsystem of the Linux kernel was discovered. A guest OS user could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (guest OS crash) via a specially crafted application. (CVE-2014-7842)

Miloš Prchlík reported a flaw in how the ARM64 platform handles a single byte overflow in __clear_user. A local user could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash) by reading one byte beyond a /dev/zero page boundary. (CVE-2014-7843)

A stack buffer overflow was discovered in the ioctl command handling for the Technotrend/Hauppauge USB DEC devices driver. A local user could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly gain privileges. (CVE-2014-8884)
