Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Insufficient Entropy (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-4238)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient entropy when generating alphanumeric strings within RandomAlphaNumeric and CryptoRandomAlphaNumeric functions, which always return strings containing at least one digit from 0 to 9. A remote attacker can launch brute-force attacks and gain access to sensitive information.


2) 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.


3) Deadlock (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-4269)

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

The vulnerability exists due to an error in the Linux kernel Traffic Control (TC) subsystem. A local user can use a specific network configuration (redirecting egress packets to ingress using TC action "mirred") to trigger a CPU soft lockup.


4) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-4378)

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the __do_proc_dointvec() function. A local user can trigger a stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
