Descriptions
fs/nfsd/trace.h in the Linux kernel before 5.13.4 might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read in strlen) by sending NFS traffic when the trace event framework is being used for nfsd.
El archivo fs/nfsd/trace.h en el kernel de Linux versiones anteriores a 5.13.4, podría permitir a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (lectura fuera de los límites en strlen) mediante el envío de tráfico NFS cuando el marco de eventos de rastreo se está usando para nfsd
Valentina Palmiotti discovered that the io_uring subsystem in the Linux kernel could be coerced to free adjacent memory. A local attacker could use this to execute arbitrary code. Benedict Schlueter discovered that the BPF subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly protect against Speculative Store Bypass side- channel attacks in some situations. A local attacker could possibly use this to expose sensitive information. Various other issues were also addressed.
