Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3112)

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error within the amvdec_set_canvases() function in drivers/staging/media/meson/vdec/vdec_helpers.c. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


2) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3115)

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error within the malidp_crtc_reset() function in drivers/gpu/drm/arm/malidp_crtc.c. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


3) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3564)

The vulnerability allows an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the l2cap_reassemble_sdu() function in net/bluetooth/l2cap_core.c. An attacker with physical access to device can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.


4) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-47520)

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the drivers/net/wireless/microchip/wilc1000/hif.c in the WILC1000 wireless driver.  A local user can trigger an out-of-bounds read when parsing a Robust Security Network (RSN) information element from a Netlink packet and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


5) Type Confusion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-23454)

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a type confusion error within the cbq_classify() function in net/sched/sch_cbq.c in the Linux kernel. A local user can trigger a type confusion error and crash the kernel.


6) Type Confusion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-23455)

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a type confusion error within the atm_tc_enqueue() function in net/sched/sch_atm.c in the Linux kernel. A local user can trigger a type confusion error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
