Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) 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.


2) Use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-38023)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to security features bypass in Netlogon RPC. A remote attacker can bypass the Netlogon cryptography feature for signing and sealing traffic during Netlogon authentication.


3) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41222)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error caused by a stale TLB in mm/mremap.c, because an rmap lock is not held during a PUD move. A local user can gain access to sensitive information.


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.


5) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0461)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the Upper Level Protocol (ULP) subsystem in Linux kernel caused by improper handling of sockets entering the LISTEN state in certain protocols. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.



6) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-1668)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when processing IP packets. A remote attacker can send specially crafted IP packets with "ip proto" set to "0" and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability requires that flow rules contain 'set' actions on other fields in the IP protocol header.
