CVE-2016-10147 – kernel: Kernel crash by spawning mcrypt(alg) with incompatible algorithm
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2016-10147
crypto/mcryptd.c in the Linux kernel before 4.8.15 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) by using an AF_ALG socket with an incompatible algorithm, as demonstrated by mcryptd(md5). crypto/mcryptd.c en el kernel de Linux en versiones anteriores a 4.8.15 permite a usuarios locales provocar una denegación de servicio (referencia a puntero NULL y caída del sistema) usando un socket AF_ALG con un algoritmo incompatible, según lo demostrado por mcryptd(md5). Algorithms not compatible with mcryptd could be spawned by mcryptd with a direct crypto_alloc_tfm invocation using a "mcryptd(alg)" name construct. This causes mcryptd to crash the kernel if an arbitrary "alg" is incompatible and not intended to be used with mcryptd. • http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=48a992727d82cb7db076fa15d372178743b1f4cd http://marc.info/?l=linux-crypto-vger&m=148063683310477&w=2 http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/ChangeLog-4.8.15 http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2017/01/17/13 http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/95677 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:1842 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:2077 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id • CWE-476: NULL Pointer Dereference •
CVE-2017-2584 – Kernel: kvm: use after free in complete_emulated_mmio

arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux kernel through 4.9.3 allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via a crafted application that leverages instruction emulation for fxrstor, fxsave, sgdt, and sidt. arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c en el kernel de Linux hasta la versión 4.9.3 permite a usuarios locales obtener información sensible de memoria del kernel o provocar una denegación de servicio (uso después de liberación de memoria) a través de una aplicación manipulada que aprovecha la emulación de instrucciones para fxrstor, fxsave, sgdt y sidt. • http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=129a72a0d3c8e139a04512325384fe5ac119e74d http://www.debian.org/security/2017/dsa-3791 http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2017/01/13/7 http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/95430 http://www.securitytracker.com/id/1037603 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1413001 https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/129a72a0d3c8e139a04512325384fe5ac119e74d https://usn.ubuntu.com/3754-1 https://access.redhat.com/securit • CWE-200: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor CWE-416: Use After Free •
CVE-2016-10088 – kernel: Use after free in SCSI generic device interface (CVE-2016-9576 regression)
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2016-10088
The sg implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.9 does not properly restrict write operations in situations where the KERNEL_DS option is set, which allows local users to read or write to arbitrary kernel memory locations or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) by leveraging access to a /dev/sg device, related to block/bsg.c and drivers/scsi/sg.c. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2016-9576. La implementación sg en el kernel Linux hasta la versión 4.9 no restringe correctamente operaciones de escritura en situaciones donde la opción KERNEL_DS está activa, lo que permite a usuarios locales leer o escribir a ubicacioes arbitrarias de memoria de kernel o provocar una denegación de servicio (uso despues de liberación) aprovechando el acceso al dispositivo /dev/sg, relacionado con block/bsg.c y drivers/scsi/sg.c. NOTA: esta vulnerabilidad existe debido a una reparación incompleta de CVE-2016-9576. It was found that the fix for CVE-2016-9576 was incomplete: the Linux kernel's sg implementation did not properly restrict write operations in situations where the KERNEL_DS option is set. • http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=128394eff343fc6d2f32172f03e24829539c5835 http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017-0817.html http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2016/12/30/1 http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/95169 http://www.securitytracker.com/id/1037538 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:1842 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:2077 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:2669 https://github.com/torvalds/linux • CWE-416: Use After Free •
CVE-2012-6704
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2012-6704
The sock_setsockopt function in net/core/sock.c in the Linux kernel before 3.5 mishandles negative values of sk_sndbuf and sk_rcvbuf, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for a crafted setsockopt system call with the (1) SO_SNDBUF or (2) SO_RCVBUF option. La función sock_setsockopt en net/core/sock.c en el kernel de Linux en versiones anteriores a 3.5 no maneja adecuadamente valores negativos de sk_sndbuf y sk_rcvbuf, lo que permite a usuarios locales provocar una denegación de servicio (corrupción de memoria y caída del sistema) o posiblemente tener otro impacto no especificado aprovechando la capacidad CAP_NET_ADMIN para una llamada al sistema setsockopt manipulada con la opción (1) SO_SNDBUF o (2) SO_RCVBUF. • http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=82981930125abfd39d7c8378a9cfdf5e1be2002b http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2016/12/03/1 http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/95135 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1402024 https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/82981930125abfd39d7c8378a9cfdf5e1be2002b • CWE-119: Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer •
CVE-2016-9588 – Kernel: kvm: nVMX: uncaught software exceptions in L1 guest leads to DoS
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2016-9588
arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the Linux kernel through 4.9 mismanages the #BP and #OF exceptions, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (guest OS crash) by declining to handle an exception thrown by an L2 guest. arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c en el kernek de Linux hasta la versión 4.9 no gestiona adecuadamente las excepciones #BP y #OF, lo que permite a usuarios del SO invitados provocar una denegación de servicio (caída del SO invitado) declinando el manejo de una excepción lanzada por un invitado L2. Linux kernel built with the KVM visualization support (CONFIG_KVM), with nested visualization(nVMX) feature enabled(nested=1), is vulnerable to an uncaught exception issue. It could occur if an L2 guest was to throw an exception which is not handled by an L1 guest. • http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=ef85b67385436ddc1998f45f1d6a210f935b3388 http://www.debian.org/security/2017/dsa-3804 http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2016/12/15/3 http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/94933 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:1842 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:2077 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1404924 https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/ef85b67385436ddc1998f45f1d6a210f935b3388 https:/ • CWE-248: Uncaught Exception CWE-388: 7PK - Errors •
