Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: flowtable: validate pppoe header Ensure there is sufficient room to access the protocol field of the
PPPoe header. Validate it once before the flowtable lookup, then use a
helper function to access protocol field.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: netfilter: flowtable: validar encabezado pppoe Asegúrese de que haya suficiente espacio para acceder al campo de protocolo del encabezado PPPoe.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: flowtable: validate pppoe header Ensure there is sufficient room to access the protocol field of the PPPoe header. Validate it once before the flowtable lookup, then use a helper function to access protocol field.

Ziming Zhang discovered that the DRM driver for VMware Virtual GPU did not properly handle certain error conditions, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. A local attacker could possibly trigger this vulnerability to cause a denial of service. Gui-Dong Han discovered that the software RAID driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition, leading to an integer overflow vulnerability. A privileged attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service.
