A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's netfilter: nftables component can be exploited to achieve local privilege escalation.

The function nftpipapowalk did not skip inactive elements during set walk which could lead double deactivations of PIPAPO (Pile Packet Policies) elements, leading to use-after-free.

We recommend upgrading past commit 317eb9685095678f2c9f5a8189de698c5354316a.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's NVMe driver. This issue may allow an unauthenticated malicious actor to send a set of crafted TCP packages when using NVMe over TCP, leading the NVMe driver to a NULL pointer dereference in the NVMe driver and causing kernel panic and a denial of service.

A flaw in the Linux Kernel found. When splice() is called with a ktls socket as destination, the ktls code fails to update the internal "curr"/"copybreak" accounting that tracks which parts of the plaintext scatter-gather buffer (struct skmsgsg) are unused writable memory. This can cause subsequent writes to the socket to overwrite the contents of spliced pages, including pages from files to which the caller is not supposed to have write access.

An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 6.5.9 exploitable by local users with userspace access to MMIO registers. Incorrect access checking in the #VC handler and instruction emulation of the SEV-ES emulation of MMIO accesses could lead to arbitrary write access to kernel memory (and thus privilege escalation). This depends on a race condition through which userspace can replace an instruction before the #VC handler reads it.

A heap out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the Linux kernel's Linux Kernel Performance Events (perf) component can be exploited to achieve local privilege escalation.

If perfreadgroup() is called while an event's siblinglist is smaller than its child's siblinglist, it can increment or write to memory locations outside of the allocated buffer.

We recommend upgrading past commit 32671e3799ca2e4590773fd0e63aaa4229e50c06.

Last updated 30 August 2024

An issue was discovered in drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb/igbmain.c in the IGB driver in the Linux kernel before 6.5.3. A buffer size may not be adequate for frames larger than the MTU.

A use-after-free vulnerability was found in drivers/nvme/target/tcp.c in nvmettcpfreecrypto due to a logical bug in the NVMe-oF/TCP subsystem in the Linux kernel. In this flaw, a malicious user can cause a UAF and a double free, which may lead to RCE (may also lead to an LPE in case the attacker already has local privileges).

Reference: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-nvme/20231002105428.226515-1-sagi@grimberg.me/

An array indexing vulnerability was found in the netfilter subsystem of the Linux kernel. A missing macro could lead to a miscalculation of the h->nets array offset, providing attackers with the primitive to arbitrarily increment/decrement a memory buffer out-of-bound. This issue may allow a local user to crash the system or potentially escalate their privileges on the system.

Incorrect verifier pruning in BPF in Linux Kernel >=5.4 leads to unsafe code paths being incorrectly marked as safe, resulting in arbitrary read/write in kernel memory, lateral privilege escalation, and container escape.

A flaw in the Linux Kernel found. A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: schqfq component can be exploited to achieve local privilege escalation. When the plug qdisc is used as a class of the qfq qdisc, sending network packets triggers use-after-free in qfqdequeue() due to the incorrect .peek handler of schplug and lack of error checking in aggdequeue().

A buffer overflow was discovered in the GNU C Library's dynamic loader ld.so while processing the GLIBCTUNABLES environment variable. This issue could allow a local attacker to use maliciously crafted GLIBCTUNABLES environment variables when launching binaries with SUID permission to execute code with elevated privileges.

A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: schhfsc (HFSC qdisc traffic control) component can be exploited to achieve local privilege escalation.

If a class with a link-sharing curve (i.e. with the HFSCFSC flag set) has a parent without a link-sharing curve, then initvf() will call vttreeinsert() on the parent, but vttreeremove() will be skipped in updatevf(). This leaves a dangling pointer that can cause a use-after-free.

We recommend upgrading past commit b3d26c5702c7d6c45456326e56d2ccf3f103e60f.

A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's afunix component can be exploited to achieve local privilege escalation.

The unixstreamsendpage() function tries to add data to the last skb in the peer's recv queue without locking the queue. Thus there is a race where unixstreamsendpage() could access an skb locklessly that is being released by garbage collection, resulting in use-after-free.

We recommend upgrading past commit 790c2f9d15b594350ae9bca7b236f2b1859de02c.

A flaw was found in pfnswapentrytopage in memory management subsystem in the Linux Kernel. In this flaw, an attacker with a local user privilege may cause a denial of service problem due to a BUG statement referencing pmdt x.

A flaw was found in glibc. When the getaddrinfo function is called with the AFUNSPEC address family and the system is configured with no-aaaa mode via /etc/resolv.conf, a DNS response via TCP larger than 2048 bytes can potentially disclose stack contents through the function returned address data, and may cause a crash.

An issue was discovered in l2capsockrelease in net/bluetooth/l2capsock.c in the Linux kernel before 6.4.10. There is a use-after-free because the children of an sk are mishandled.

A flaw in the Linux Kernel found. Use after free in the net/sched classifiers (clsfw, clsu32 and clsroute) can happen because of mainline/net/sched/clsfw.c incorrect handling of the existing filter in .change method that leads to an extra unbindtcf call for the associated class and that allows that class to be removed while it's still used. These bugs can be used for a local privilege escalation.

A flaw in the Linux Kernel found. An out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: schqfq component can be exploited to achieve local privilege escalation.

A flaw in the Linux Kernel found. If napi frags enabled and patch 363a5328f4b0 ("net: tun: fix bugs for oversize packet when napi frags enabled") not applied, then when local user try to send too large IPV6 packet (with big packet length), it can lead to out of bounds memory bug.

Gather Date Sampling (GDS) is a transient execution side channel vulnerability affecting certain Intel processor. In this flaw, a local attack using gather instruction (load from memory) may infer stale data from previously used vector registers on the same physical core.

Airport. A permissions issue was addressed with improved redaction of sensitive information.

A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the siano smsusb module in the Linux kernel. The bug occurs during device initialization when the siano device is plugged in. This flaw allows a local user to crash the system, causing a denial of service condition.
