CVE-2016-6213 – kernel: Overflowing kernel mount table using shared bind mount
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2016-6213
fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel before 4.9 does not restrict how many mounts may exist in a mount namespace, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and deadlock) via MS_BIND mount system calls, as demonstrated by a loop that triggers exponential growth in the number of mounts. fs/namespace.c en el kernel de Linux en versiones anteriores a 4.9 no restringe la cantidad de montajes que pueden existir en un espacio de nombre del montaje, lo que permite a usuarios locales provocar una denegación de servicio (consumo de memoria y punto muerto) a través de llamadas al sistema de montaje MS_BIND, según lo demostrado por un bucle que desencadena un crecimiento exponencial en el número de montajes. It was found that in Linux kernel the mount table expands by a power-of-two with each bind mount command. If a system is configured to allow non-privileged user to do bind mounts, or allows to do so in a container or unprivileged mount namespace, then non-privileged user is able to cause a local DoS by overflowing the mount table, which causes a deadlock for the whole system. • http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=d29216842a85c7970c536108e093963f02714498 http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2016/07/13/8 http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/91754 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:1842 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:2077 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1356471 https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/d29216842a85c7970c536108e093963f02714498 https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2016-6213 • CWE-400: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption CWE-770: Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling •

arch/arm64/kernel/sys.c in the Linux kernel before 4.0 allows local users to bypass the "strict page permissions" protection mechanism and modify the system-call table, and consequently gain privileges, by leveraging write access. arch/arm64/kernel/sys.c en el kernel de Linux en versiones anteriores a 4.0 permiten a usuarios locales eludir el mecanismo de protección de "permisos de página estricta" y modificar la tabla de llamadas del sistema, y consecuentemente obtener privilegios, aprovechando el acceso de escritura. • http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=c623b33b4e9599c6ac5076f7db7369eb9869aa04 http://source.android.com/security/bulletin/2016-12-01.html http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/94680 https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/c623b33b4e9599c6ac5076f7db7369eb9869aa04 • CWE-264: Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls •
CVE-2016-8650 – kernel: Null pointer dereference via keyctl
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2016-8650
The mpi_powm function in lib/mpi/mpi-pow.c in the Linux kernel through 4.8.11 does not ensure that memory is allocated for limb data, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (stack memory corruption and panic) via an add_key system call for an RSA key with a zero exponent. La función mpi_powm en lib/mpi/mpi-pow.c en el kernel Linux hasta la versión 4.8.11 no se asegura que la memoria esté alojada para datos limb, lo que permite a usuarios locales provocar una denegación de servicio (corrupción de memoria de pila y pánico) a través de una llamada de sistema add_key para una llave RSA con un componente cero. A flaw was found in the Linux kernel key management subsystem in which a local attacker could crash the kernel or corrupt the stack and additional memory (denial of service) by supplying a specially crafted RSA key. This flaw panics the machine during the verification of the RSA key. • http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=f5527fffff3f002b0a6b376163613b82f69de073 http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2016/Nov/76 http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2016/11/24/8 http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/94532 http://www.securitytracker.com/id/1037968 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:0931 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:0932 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:0933 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA- • CWE-20: Improper Input Validation CWE-399: Resource Management Errors CWE-476: NULL Pointer Dereference •
CVE-2016-8646 – kernel: Oops in shash_async_export()
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2016-8646
The hash_accept function in crypto/algif_hash.c in the Linux kernel before 4.3.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) by attempting to trigger use of in-kernel hash algorithms for a socket that has received zero bytes of data. La función hash_accept en crypto/algif_hash.c en el kernel Linux en versiones anteriores a 4.3.6 permite a usuarios locales provocar una denegación de servicio (OOPS) intentando desencadenar el uso de algoritmos hash in-kernel para un enchufe que ha recibido cero bytes de datos. A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel.
