A flaw was reported in kernel TCP subsystem while calculating a packet round trip time, when a sysctl parameter (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcpminrttwlen) when is set wrongly. This causes an integer over flaw which can lead to a Denial Of Service (DOS) attack.

Additional Information: ----------------------- https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=19fad20d15a6494f47f85d869f00b11343ee5c78

Source: Red Hat

Remedy

This flaw can be mitigated by setting the sysctl parameter (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_min_rtt_wlen) with 300 which means the packet time will not exceed more then 5 minutes and which should not cause an integer overflow.

A flaw was found in OpenSSL. The issue in CVE-2022-1292 did not find other places in the crehash script where it possibly passed the file names of certificates being hashed to a command executed through the shell. Some operating systems distribute this script in a manner where it is automatically executed. On these operating systems, this flaw allows an attacker to execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the script.

Where, while parsing vendor-specific informational attributes, an attacker on the same WiFi physical network segment could cause a system crash, resulting in a denial of service, or potentially execute arbitrary code. This flaw affects the network interface at the most basic level meaning the attacker only needs to affiliate with the same network device as the vulnerable system to create an attack path.

Race Condition, Use After Free
AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

.A flaw was found in the CAN BCM networking protocol in the Linux kernel, where a local attacker can abuse a flaw in the CAN subsystem to corrupt memory, crash the system or escalate privileges. This race condition in net/can/bcm.c in the Linux kernel allows for local privilege escalation to root.

1 / 5

Remedy

As the CAN module will be auto-loaded when required, its use can be disabled by preventing the module from loading with the following instructions: # echo "install can-bcm /bin/true" >> /etc/modprobe.d/disable-can-bcm.conf The system will need to be restarted if the CAN modules are loaded. In most circumstances, the CAN kernel modules will be unable to be unloaded while any network interfaces are active and the protocol is in use. If the system requires this module to work correctly, this mitigation may not be suitable.

The mechanism used to link the process requesting the ptrace and the process being ptraced could allow a local user to obtain root level priviledges by creating an opportunity to abuse the frequently used pattern of dropping privileges and then execve a child with reduced privileges/permissions.

Abnormal termination of an application can a cause a denial of service.

Applications performing certificate name checks (e.g., TLS clients checking server certificates) may attempt to read an invalid memory address when comparing the expected name with an otherName subject alternative name of an X.509 certificate. This may result in an exception that terminates the application program.

Note that basic certificate chain validation (signatures, dates, ...) is not affected, the denial of service can occur only when the application also specifies an expected DNS name, Email address or IP address.

TLS servers rarely solicit client certificates, and even when they do, they generally don't perform a name check against a "reference identifier" (expected identity), but rather extract the presented identity after checking the certificate chain. So TLS servers are generally not affected and the severity of the issue is Moderate.

The FIPS modules in 3.3, 3.2, 3.1 and 3.0 are not affected by this issue. OpenSSL 1.1.1 and 1.0.2 are also not affected by this issue.

OpenSSL 3.3, 3.2, 3.1 and 3.0 are vulnerable to this issue.

OpenSSL 3.3 users should upgrade to OpenSSL 3.3.2

OpenSSL 3.2 users should upgrade to OpenSSL 3.2.3
