  - arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux kernel through 4.9.3 allows local users to obtain sensitive     information from kernel memory or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via a crafted application     that leverages instruction emulation for fxrstor, fxsave, sgdt, and sidt. (CVE-2017-2584)

  - The ping_unhash function in net/ipv4/ping.c in the Linux kernel through 4.10.8 is too late in obtaining a     certain lock and consequently cannot ensure that disconnect function calls are safe, which allows local     users to cause a denial of service (panic) by leveraging access to the protocol value of IPPROTO_ICMP in a     socket system call. (CVE-2017-2671)

  - The klsi_105_get_line_state function in drivers/usb/serial/kl5kusb105.c in the Linux kernel before 4.9.5     places uninitialized heap-memory contents into a log entry upon a failure to read the line status, which     allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading the log.

  - The hashbin_delete function in net/irda/irqueue.c in the Linux kernel before 4.9.13 improperly manages     lock dropping, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (deadlock) via crafted operations on     IrDA devices. (CVE-2017-6348)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel before version 4.12 in the way the KVM module processed the trap     flag(TF) bit in EFLAGS during emulation of the syscall instruction, which leads to a debug exception(#DB)     being raised in the guest stack. A user/process inside a guest could use this flaw to potentially escalate     their privileges inside the guest. Linux guests are not affected by this. (CVE-2017-7518)

  - The NFSv2/NFSv3 server in the nfsd subsystem in the Linux kernel through 4.10.11 allows remote attackers     to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a long RPC reply, related to net/sunrpc/svc.c,     fs/nfsd/nfs3xdr.c, and fs/nfsd/nfsxdr.c. (CVE-2017-7645)

(CVE-2017-9985)

  - Linux Kernel version 3.18 to 4.16 incorrectly handles an SG_IO ioctl on /dev/sg0 with     dxfer_direction=SG_DXFER_FROM_DEV and an empty 6-byte cmdp. This may lead to copying up to 1000 kernel     heap pages to the userspace. This has been fixed upstream in     https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/a45b599ad808c3c982fdcdc12b0b8611c2f92824 already. The problem has     limited scope, as users don't usually have permissions to access SCSI devices. On the other hand, e.g. the     Nero user manual suggests doing `chmod o+r+w /dev/sg*` to make the devices accessible. NOTE: third parties     dispute the relevance of this report, noting that the requirement for an attacker to have both the     CAP_SYS_ADMIN and CAP_SYS_RAWIO capabilities makes it virtually impossible to exploit. (CVE-2018-1000204)

  - drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_scsi_host.c in the Linux kernel before 4.16 allows local users to cause a denial     of service (ata qc leak) by triggering certain failure conditions. NOTE: a third party disputes the     relevance of this report because the failure can only occur for physically proximate attackers who unplug     SAS Host Bus Adapter cables (CVE-2018-10021)

  - The kernel_wait4 function in kernel/exit.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13, when an unspecified     architecture and compiler is used, might allow local users to cause a denial of service by triggering an     attempted use of the -INT_MIN value. (CVE-2018-10087)

  - The kill_something_info function in kernel/signal.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13, when an unspecified     architecture and compiler is used, might allow local users to cause a denial of service via an INT_MIN     argument. (CVE-2018-10124)

  - The xfs_bmap_extents_to_btree function in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_bmap.c in the Linux kernel through 4.16.3     allows local users to cause a denial of service (xfs_bmapi_write NULL pointer dereference) via a crafted     xfs image. (CVE-2018-10323)

  - The do_get_mempolicy function in mm/mempolicy.c in the Linux kernel before 4.12.9 allows local users to     cause a denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted system     calls. (CVE-2018-10675)

  - Linux kernel ext4 filesystem is vulnerable to an out-of-bound access in the ext4_ext_drop_refs() function     when operating on a crafted ext4 filesystem image. (CVE-2018-10877)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ext4 filesystem. A local user can cause an out-of-bound access in     ext4_get_group_info function, a denial of service, and a system crash by mounting and operating on a     crafted ext4 filesystem image. (CVE-2018-10881)

  - The ext4_iget function in fs/ext4/inode.c in the Linux kernel through 4.15.15 mishandles the case of a     root directory with a zero i_links_count, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service     (ext4_process_freed_data NULL pointer dereference and OOPS) via a crafted ext4 image. (CVE-2018-1092)

  - The ext4_valid_block_bitmap function in fs/ext4/balloc.c in the Linux kernel through 4.15.15 allows     attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and system crash) via a crafted ext4 image     because balloc.c and ialloc.c do not validate bitmap block numbers. (CVE-2018-1093)

  - The cdrom_ioctl_media_changed function in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c in the Linux kernel before 4.16.6 allows     local attackers to use a incorrect bounds check in the CDROM driver CDROM_MEDIA_CHANGED ioctl to read out     kernel memory. (CVE-2018-10940)

  - In the ea_get function in fs/jfs/xattr.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.1, a memory corruption bug in     JFS can be triggered by calling setxattr twice with two different extended attribute names on the same     file. This vulnerability can be triggered by an unprivileged user with the ability to create files and     execute programs. A kmalloc call is incorrect, leading to slab-out-of-bounds in jfs_xattr.
    (CVE-2018-12233)

  - An issue was discovered in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_attr_leaf.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3. An OOPS may     occur for a corrupted xfs image after xfs_da_shrink_inode() is called with a NULL bp. (CVE-2018-13094)

  - The inode_init_owner function in fs/inode.c in the Linux kernel through 3.16 allows local users to create     files with an unintended group ownership, in a scenario where a directory is SGID to a certain group and     is writable by a user who is not a member of that group. Here, the non-member can trigger creation of a     plain file whose group ownership is that group. The intended behavior was that the non-member can trigger     creation of a directory (but not a plain file) whose group ownership is that group. The non-member can     escalate privileges by making the plain file executable and SGID. (CVE-2018-13405)

  - An integer overflow in the uvesafb_setcmap function in drivers/video/fbdev/uvesafb.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.17.4 could result in local attackers being able to crash the kernel or potentially elevate     privileges because kmalloc_array is not used. (CVE-2018-13406)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's client-side     implementation of the cifs protocol. This flaw allows     an attacker controlling the server to kernel panic a     client which has the CIFS server     mounted.(CVE-2018-1066)

  - In the Linux Kernel before version 4.15.8, 4.14.25,     4.9.87, 4.4.121, 4.1.51, and 3.2.102, an error in the     '_sctp_make_chunk()' function     (net/sctp/sm_make_chunk.c) when handling SCTP packets     length can be exploited to cause a kernel     crash.(CVE-2018-5803)

  - Memory leak in the sas_smp_get_phy_events function in     drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_expander.c in the Linux kernel     allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel     memory exhaustion) via multiple read accesses to files     in the /sys/class/sas_phy directory.(CVE-2018-7757)

  - A race condition in the store_int_with_restart()     function in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce.c in the     Linux kernel allows local users to cause a denial of     service (panic) by leveraging root access to write to     the check_interval file in a     /sys/devices/system/machinecheck/machinecheck (cpu     number) directory.(CVE-2018-7995)

  - ALSA sequencer core initializes the event pool on     demand by invoking snd_seq_pool_init() when the first     write happens and the pool is empty. A user can reset     the pool size manually via ioctl concurrently, and this     may lead to UAF or out-of-bound access.(CVE-2018-7566)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation     of 32-bit syscall interface for bridging. This allowed     a privileged user to arbitrarily write to a limited     range of kernel memory.(CVE-2018-1068)

  - A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's     kernel/events/core.c:perf_cpu_time_max_percent_handler(     ) function. Local privileged users could exploit this     flaw to cause a denial of service due to integer     overflow or possibly have unspecified other     impact.(CVE-2017-18255)

  - The code in the drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_scsi_host.c     file in the Linux kernel allow a physically proximate     attacker to cause a memory leak in the ATA command     queue and, thus, denial of service by triggering     certain failure conditions.(CVE-2018-10021)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel where the     keyctl_set_reqkey_keyring() function leaks the thread     keyring. This allows an unprivileged local user to     exhaust kernel memory and thus cause a     DoS.(CVE-2017-7472)

  - A reference counter leak in Linux kernel in     ipxitf_ioctl function was found which results in a use     after free vulnerability that's triggerable from     unprivileged userspace when IPX interface is     configured.(CVE-2017-7487)

  - A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel where     filesystems mounted with data=ordered mode may allow an     attacker to read stale data from recently allocated     blocks in new files after a system 'reset' by abusing     ext4 mechanics of delayed allocation.(CVE-2017-7495)

  - A race condition was found in the Linux kernel, present     since v3.14-rc1 through v4.12. The race happens between     threads of inotify_handle_event() and vfs_rename()     while running the rename operation against the same     file. As a result of the race the next slab data or the     slab's free list pointer can be corrupted with     attacker-controlled data, which may lead to the     privilege escalation.(CVE-2017-7533)

  - Kernel memory corruption due to a buffer overflow was     found in brcmf_cfg80211_mgmt_tx() function in Linux     kernels from v3.9-rc1 to v4.13-rc1. The vulnerability     can be triggered by sending a crafted NL80211_CMD_FRAME     packet via netlink. This flaw is unlikely to be     triggered remotely as certain userspace code is needed     for this. An unprivileged local user could use this     flaw to induce kernel memory corruption on the system,     leading to a crash. Due to the nature of the flaw,     privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out,     although it is unlikely.(CVE-2017-7541)

  - An integer overflow vulnerability in     ip6_find_1stfragopt() function was found. A local     attacker that has privileges (of CAP_NET_RAW) to open     raw socket can cause an infinite loop inside the     ip6_find_1stfragopt() function.(CVE-2017-7542)

  - Incorrect error handling in the set_mempolicy() and     mbind() compat syscalls in 'mm/mempolicy.c' in the     Linux kernel allows local users to obtain sensitive     information from uninitialized stack data by triggering     failure of a certain bitmap operation.(CVE-2017-7616)

  - The NFS2/3 RPC client could send long arguments to the     NFS server. These encoded arguments are stored in an     array of memory pages, and accessed using pointer     variables. Arbitrarily long arguments could make these     pointers point outside the array and cause an     out-of-bounds memory access. A remote user or program     could use this flaw to crash the kernel, resulting in     denial of service.(CVE-2017-7645)

  - The NFSv2 and NFSv3 server implementations in the Linux     kernel through 4.10.13 lacked certain checks for the     end of a buffer. A remote attacker could trigger a     pointer-arithmetic error or possibly cause other     unspecified impacts using crafted requests related to     fs/nfsd/nfs3xdr.c and fs/nfsd/nfsxdr.c.(CVE-2017-7895)

  - It was found that the NFSv4 server in the Linux kernel     did not properly validate layout type when processing     NFSv4 pNFS LAYOUTGET and GETDEVICEINFO operands. A     remote attacker could use this flaw to soft-lockup the     system and thus cause denial of service.(CVE-2017-8797)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability was found in DCCP socket     code affecting the Linux kernel since 2.6.16. This     vulnerability could allow an attacker to their escalate     privileges.(CVE-2017-8824)

  - The inet_csk_clone_lock function in     net/ipv4/inet_connection_sock.c in the Linux kernel     allows attackers to cause a denial of service (double     free) or possibly have unspecified other impact by     leveraging use of the accept system call. An     unprivileged local user could use this flaw to induce     kernel memory corruption on the system, leading to a     crash. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege     escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we     believe it is unlikely.(CVE-2017-8890)

  - The edge_bulk_in_callback function in     drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c in the Linux kernel allows     local users to obtain sensitive information (in the     dmesg ringbuffer and syslog) from uninitialized kernel     memory by using a crafted USB device (posing as an     io_ti USB serial device) to trigger an integer     underflow.(CVE-2017-8924)

  - The IPv6 fragmentation implementation in the Linux     kernel does not consider that the nexthdr field may be     associated with an invalid option, which allows local     users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read     and BUG) or possibly have unspecified other impact via     crafted socket and send system calls. Due to the nature     of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled     out, although we believe it is unlikely.(CVE-2017-9074)

  - The sctp_v6_create_accept_sk function in     net/sctp/ipv6.c in the Linux kernel mishandles     inheritance, which allows local users to cause a denial     of service or possibly have unspecified other impact     via crafted system calls, a related issue to     CVE-2017-8890. An unprivileged local user could use     this flaw to induce kernel memory corruption on the     system, leading to a crash. Due to the nature of the     flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out,     although we believe it is unlikely.(CVE-2017-9075)

  - The IPv6 DCCP implementation in the Linux kernel     mishandles inheritance, which allows local users to     cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified     other impact via crafted system calls, a related issue     to CVE-2017-8890. An unprivileged local user could use     this flaw to induce kernel memory corruption on the     system, leading to a crash. Due to the nature of the     flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out,     although we believe it is unlikely.(CVE-2017-9076)

  - The tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock function in     net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c in the Linux kernel mishandles     inheritance, which allows local users to cause a denial     of service or possibly have unspecified other impact     via crafted system calls, a related issue to     CVE-2017-8890. An unprivileged local user could use     this flaw to induce kernel memory corruption on the     system, leading to a crash. Due to the nature of the     flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out,     although we believe it is unlikely.(CVE-2017-9077)

  - The __ip6_append_data function in net/ipv6/ip6_output.c     in the Linux kernel through 4.11.3 is too late in     checking whether an overwrite of an skb data structure     may occur, which allows local users to cause a denial     of service (system crash) via crafted system     calls.(CVE-2017-9242)

  - The vmw_gb_surface_define_ioctl function (accessible     via DRM_IOCTL_VMW_GB_SURFACE_CREATE) in     drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_surface.c in the Linux     kernel through 4.11.4 defines a backup_handle variable     but does not give it an initial value. If one attempts     to create a GB surface, with a previously allocated DMA     buffer to be used as a backup buffer, the backup_handle     variable does not get written to and is then later     returned to user space, allowing local users to obtain     sensitive information from uninitialized kernel memory     via a crafted ioctl call.(CVE-2017-9605)

  - In the Linux kernel versions 4.12, 3.10, 2.6, and     possibly earlier, a race condition vulnerability exists     in the sound system allowing for a potential deadlock     and memory corruption due to use-after-free condition     and thus denial of service. Due to the nature of the     flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out,     although we believe it is unlikely.(CVE-2018-1000004)

  - The code in the drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_scsi_host.c     file in the Linux kernel allow a physically proximate     attacker to cause a memory leak in the ATA command     queue and, thus, denial of service by triggering     certain failure conditions.(CVE-2018-10021)

  - The kernel_wait4 function in kernel/exit.c in the Linux     kernel, when an unspecified architecture and compiler     is used, might allow local users to cause a denial of     service by triggering an attempted use of the -INT_MIN     value.(CVE-2018-10087)

The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3678-1 advisory.

  - drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_scsi_host.c in the Linux kernel before 4.16 allows local users to cause a denial     of service (ata qc leak) by triggering certain failure conditions. NOTE: a third party disputes the     relevance of this report because the failure can only occur for physically proximate attackers who unplug     SAS Host Bus Adapter cables (CVE-2018-10021)

  - The ext4_iget function in fs/ext4/inode.c in the Linux kernel through 4.15.15 mishandles the case of a     root directory with a zero i_links_count, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service     (ext4_process_freed_data NULL pointer dereference and OOPS) via a crafted ext4 image. (CVE-2018-1092)

  - Memory leak in the hwsim_new_radio_nl function in drivers/net/wireless/mac80211_hwsim.c in the Linux     kernel through 4.15.9 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering     an out-of-array error case. (CVE-2018-8087)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

An update of the linux package has been released.

Linux 4.9 has been packaged for Debian 8 as linux-4.9. This provides a supported upgrade path for systems that currently use kernel packages from the 'jessie-backports' suite.

There is no need to upgrade systems using Linux 3.16, as that kernel version will also continue to be supported in the LTS period.

This backport does not include the following binary packages :

hyperv-daemons libcpupower1 libcpupower-dev libusbip-dev linux-compiler-gcc-4.9-x86 linux-cpupower linux-libc-dev usbip

Older versions of most of those are built from other source packages in Debian 8.

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information leaks.

CVE-2017-5753

Further instances of code that was vulnerable to Spectre variant 1 (bounds-check bypass) have been mitigated.

CVE-2017-18255

It was discovered that the performance events subsystem did not properly validate the value of the kernel.perf_cpu_time_max_percent sysctl. Setting a large value could have an unspecified security impact. However, only a privileged user can set this sysctl.

CVE-2018-1118

The syzbot software found that the vhost driver did not initialise message buffers which would later be read by user processes. A user with access to the /dev/vhost-net device could use this to read sensitive information from the kernel or other users' processes.

CVE-2018-1120

Qualys reported that a user able to mount FUSE filesystems can create a process such that when another process attempting to read its command line will be blocked for an arbitrarily long time. This could be used for denial of service, or to aid in exploiting a race condition in the other program.

CVE-2018-1130

The syzbot software found that the DCCP implementation of sendmsg() does not check the socket state, potentially leading to a NULL pointer dereference. A local user could use this to cause a denial of service (crash). 

CVE-2018-3639

Multiple researchers have discovered that Speculative Store Bypass (SSB), a feature implemented in many processors, could be used to read sensitive information from another context. In particular, code in a software sandbox may be able to read sensitive information from outside the sandbox. This issue is also known as Spectre variant 4.

This update allows the issue to be mitigated on some x86 processors by disabling SSB. This requires an update to the processor's microcode, which is non-free. It may be included in an update to the system BIOS or UEFI firmware, or in a future update to the intel-microcode or amd64-microcode packages.

Disabling SSB can reduce performance significantly, so by default it is only done in tasks that use the seccomp feature. Applications that require this mitigation should request it explicitly through the prctl() system call. Users can control where the mitigation is enabled with the spec_store_bypass_disable kernel parameter.

CVE-2018-5814

Jakub Jirasek reported race conditions in the USB/IP host driver. A malicious client could use this to cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption), and possibly to execute code, on a USB/IP server.

CVE-2018-10021

A physically present attacker who unplugs a SAS cable can cause a denial of service (memory leak and WARN).

CVE-2018-10087, CVE-2018-10124

zhongjiang found that the wait4() and kill() system call implementations did not check for the invalid pid value of INT_MIN. If a user passed this value, the behaviour of the code was formally undefined and might have had a security impact.

CVE-2018-10853

Andy Lutomirski and Mika Penttil&auml; reported that KVM for x86 processors did not perform a necessary privilege check when emulating certain instructions. This could be used by an unprivileged user in a guest VM to escalate their privileges within the guest.

CVE-2018-10876, CVE-2018-10877, CVE-2018-10878, CVE-2018-10879, CVE-2018-10880, CVE-2018-10881, CVE-2018-10882, CVE-2018-10883

Wen Xu at SSLab, Gatech, reported that crafted ext4 filesystem images could trigger a crash or memory corruption. A local user able to mount arbitrary filesystems, or an attacker providing filesystems to be mounted, could use this for denial of service or possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2018-10940

Dan Carpenter reported that the optical disc driver (cdrom) does not correctly validate the parameter to the CDROM_MEDIA_CHANGED ioctl. A user with access to a cdrom device could use this to cause a denial of service (crash).

CVE-2018-11506

Piotr Gabriel Kosinski and Daniel Shapira reported that the SCSI optical disc driver (sr) did not allocate a sufficiently large buffer for sense data. A user with access to a SCSI optical disc device that can produce more than 64 bytes of sense data could use this to cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption), and possibly for privilege escalation.

CVE-2018-12233

Shankara Pailoor reported that a crafted JFS filesystem image could trigger a denial of service (memory corruption). This could possibly also be used for privilege escalation.

CVE-2018-1000204

The syzbot software found that the SCSI generic driver (sg) would in some circumstances allow reading data from uninitialised buffers, which could include sensitive information from the kernel or other tasks. However, only privileged users with the CAP_SYS_ADMIN or CAP_SYS_RAWIO capability were allowed to do this, so this has little or no security impact.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 4.9.110-1~deb8u1. This update additionally fixes Debian bugs #860900, #872907, #892057, #896775, #897590, and #898137; and includes many more bug fixes from stable updates 4.9.89-4.9.110 inclusive.

We recommend that you upgrade your linux-4.9 packages.
