Descriptions

A flaw was found in the Netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel. The issue is in the nft_byteorder_eval() function, where the code iterates through a loop and writes to the `dst` array. On each iteration, 8 bytes are written, but `dst` is an array of u32, so each element only has space for 4 bytes. That means every iteration overwrites part of the previous element corrupting this array of u32. This flaw allows a local user to cause a denial of service or potentially break NetFilter functionality.

Se encontró una falla en el subsistema Netfilter en el kernel de Linux. El problema está en la función nft_byteorder_eval(), donde el código itera a través de un bucle y escribe en la matriz `dst`. En cada iteración, se escriben 8 bytes, pero `dst` es una matriz de u32, por lo que cada elemento solo tiene espacio para 4 bytes. Eso significa que cada iteración sobrescribe parte del elemento anterior, lo que posiblemente lleve a una escritura fuera de los límites. Esta falla permite que un usuario local provoque una denegación de servicio o potencialmente aumente sus privilegios en el sistema.

It was discovered that the DesignWare USB3 for Qualcomm SoCs driver in the Linux kernel did not properly handle certain error conditions during device registration. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service. It was discovered that a race condition existed in the Cypress touchscreen driver in the Linux kernel during device removal, leading to a use-after- free vulnerability. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.
