Descriptions
A denial of service (DOS) issue was found in the Linux kernel’s smb2_ioctl_query_info function in the fs/cifs/smb2ops.c Common Internet File System (CIFS) due to an incorrect return from the memdup_user function. This flaw allows a local, privileged (CAP_SYS_ADMIN) attacker to crash the system.
Se encontró un problema de denegación de servicio (DOS) en la función smb2_ioctl_query_info del kernel de Linux en el archivo fs/cifs/smb2ops.c Common Internet File System (CIFS) debido a un retorno incorrecto de la función memdup_user. Este fallo permite a un atacante local privilegiado (CAP_SYS_ADMIN) bloquear el sistema.
It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly restrict access to the kernel debugger when booted in secure boot environments. A privileged attacker could use this to bypass UEFI Secure Boot restrictions. Aaron Adams discovered that the netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle the removal of stateful expressions in some situations, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code.
