Description
This security bulletin contains information about 5 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-12126)
The vulnerability allows a local authenticated user to gain access to sensitive information.
Microarchitectural Store Buffer Data Sampling (MSBDS): Store buffers on some microprocessors utilizing speculative execution may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via a side channel with local access. A list of impacted products can be found here: https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/corporate-information/SA00233-microcode-update-guidance_05132019.pdf
2) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-12130)
The vulnerability allows a local authenticated user to gain access to sensitive information.
Microarchitectural Fill Buffer Data Sampling (MFBDS): Fill buffers on some microprocessors utilizing speculative execution may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via a side channel with local access. A list of impacted products can be found here: https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/corporate-information/SA00233-microcode-update-guidance_05132019.pdf
3) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-12127)
The vulnerability allows a local authenticated user to gain access to sensitive information.
Microarchitectural Load Port Data Sampling (MLPDS): Load ports on some microprocessors utilizing speculative execution may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via a side channel with local access. A list of impacted products can be found here: https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/corporate-information/SA00233-microcode-update-guidance_05132019.pdf
4) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-11091)
The vulnerability allows a local authenticated user to gain access to sensitive information.
Microarchitectural Data Sampling Uncacheable Memory (MDSUM): Uncacheable memory on some microprocessors utilizing speculative execution may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via a side channel with local access. A list of impacted products can be found here: https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/corporate-information/SA00233-microcode-update-guidance_05132019.pdf
5) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-11884)
The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability in the "do_hidp_sock_ioctl" function in "net/bluetooth/hidp/sock.c" exists due to the Bluetooth Human Interface Device Protocol (HIDP) implementation did not properly verify strings were NULL terminated in certain situations. A local authenticated user can gain unauthorized access to sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a "HIDPCONNADD" command, because a name field may not end with a '' character.
