CVE-2021-3753 – kernel: a race out-of-bound read in vt
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2021-3753
A race problem was seen in the vt_k_ioctl in drivers/tty/vt/vt_ioctl.c in the Linux kernel, which may cause an out of bounds read in vt as the write access to vc_mode is not protected by lock-in vt_ioctl (KDSETMDE). The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality. Se observó un problema de carrera en el la función vt_k_ioctl en el archivo drivers/tty/vt/vt_ioctl.c en el kernel de Linux, que puede causar una lectura fuera de límites en vt ya que el acceso de escritura a vc_mode no está protegido por el bloqueo de vt_ioctl (KDSETMDE). La mayor amenaza de esta vulnerabilidad es para la confidencialidad de los datos • https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1999589 https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/2287a51ba822384834dafc1c798453375d1107c7 https://security.netapp.com/advisory/ntap-20221028-0003 https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2021/09/01/4 https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2021-3753 • CWE-125: Out-of-bounds Read CWE-362: Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition') •
CVE-2021-3739
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2021-3739
A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the btrfs_rm_device function in fs/btrfs/volumes.c in the Linux Kernel, where triggering the bug requires ‘CAP_SYS_ADMIN’. This flaw allows a local attacker to crash the system or leak kernel internal information. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.

CVE-2021-20317 – kernel: timer tree corruption leads to missing wakeup and system freeze
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2021-20317
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A corrupted timer tree caused the task wakeup to be missing in the timerqueue_add function in lib/timerqueue.c. This flaw allows a local attacker with special user privileges to cause a denial of service, slowing and eventually stopping the system while running OSP. Se ha encontrado un fallo en el kernel de Linux. Un árbol de temporizadores corrompido hacía que faltara el despertar de la tarea en la función timerqueue_add en el archivo lib/timerqueue.c. • https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2005258 https://cert-portal.siemens.com/productcert/pdf/ssa-222547.pdf https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git/commit/?id=511885d7061eda3eb1faf3f57dcc936ff75863f1 https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2021/12/msg00012.html https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2022/03/msg00012.html https://www.debian.org/security/2022/dsa-5096 https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2021-20317 • CWE-665: Improper Initialization •
CVE-2021-38300
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2021-38300
arch/mips/net/bpf_jit.c in the Linux kernel before 5.4.10 can generate undesirable machine code when transforming unprivileged cBPF programs, allowing execution of arbitrary code within the kernel context. This occurs because conditional branches can exceed the 128 KB limit of the MIPS architecture. arch/mips/net/bpf_jit.c en el kernel de Linux anterior a la versión 5.4.10 puede generar código máquina no deseado al transformar programas cBPF sin privilegios, permitiendo la ejecución de código arbitrario dentro del contexto del kernel.

CVE-2021-3656 – kernel: SVM nested virtualization issue in KVM (VMLOAD/VMSAVE)
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2021-3656
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 "virt_ext" field, this issue could allow a malicious L1 to disable both VMLOAD/VMSAVE intercepts and VLS (Virtual VMLOAD/VMSAVE) 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. Se ha encontrado un fallo en el código AMD de KVM para soportar la virtualización anidada SVM. • https://github.com/rami08448/CVE-2021-3656-Demo https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1983988 https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm.git/commit/?id=c7dfa4009965a9b2d7b329ee970eb8da0d32f0bc https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/c7dfa4009965a9b2d7b329ee970eb8da0d32f0bc https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2021/08/16/1 https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2021-3656 • CWE-862: Missing Authorization •
