An update for kernel is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system.

These updated kernel packages include several security issues and numerous bug fixes, some of which you can see below. Space precludes documenting all of these bug fixes in this advisory. To see the complete list of bug fixes, users are directed to the related Knowledge Article: https://access.redhat.com/ articles/2857831.

Security Fix(es) :

* A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the kernel's socket recvmmsg subsystem. This may allow remote attackers to corrupt memory and may allow execution of arbitrary code. This corruption takes place during the error handling routines within __sys_recvmmsg() function.
(CVE-2016-7117, Important)

* A use-after-free vulnerability was found in tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue and other tcp_* functions. This condition could allow an attacker to send an incorrect selective acknowledgment to existing connections, possibly resetting a connection.
(CVE-2016-6828, Moderate)

* A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of the SCTP protocol. A remote attacker could trigger an out-of-bounds read with an offset of up to 64kB potentially causing the system to crash.
(CVE-2016-9555, Moderate)

Bug Fix(es) :

* Previously, the performance of Internet Protocol over InfiniBand (IPoIB) was suboptimal due to a conflict of IPoIB with the Generic Receive Offload (GRO) infrastructure. With this update, the data cached by the IPoIB driver has been moved from a control block into the IPoIB hard header, thus avoiding the GRO problem and the corruption of IPoIB address information. As a result, the performance of IPoIB has been improved. (BZ#1390668)

* Previously, when a virtual machine (VM) with PCI-Passthrough interfaces was recreated, a race condition between the eventfd daemon and the virqfd daemon occurred. Consequently, the operating system rebooted. This update fixes the race condition. As a result, the operating system no longer reboots in the described situation.
(BZ#1391611)

* Previously, a packet loss occurred when the team driver in round-robin mode was sending a large number of packets. This update fixes counting of the packets in the round-robin runner of the team driver, and the packet loss no longer occurs in the described situation. (BZ#1392023)

* Previously, the virtual network devices contained in the deleted namespace could be deleted in any order. If the loopback device was not deleted as the last item, other netns devices, such as vxlan devices, could end up with dangling references to the loopback device.
Consequently, deleting a network namespace (netns) occasionally ended by a kernel oops. With this update, the underlying source code has been fixed to ensure the correct order when deleting the virtual network devices on netns deletion. As a result, the kernel oops no longer occurs under the described circumstances. (BZ#1392024)

* Previously, a Kabylake system with a Sunrise Point Platform Controller Hub (PCH) with a PCI device ID of 0xA149 showed the following warning messages during the boot :

'Unknown Intel PCH (0xa149) detected.' 'Warning: Intel Kabylake processor with unknown PCH - this hardware has not undergone testing by Red Hat and might not be certified. Please consult https:/ /hardware.redhat.com for certified hardware.'

The messages were shown because this PCH was not properly recognized.
With this update, the problem has been fixed, and the operating system now boots without displaying the warning messages. (BZ#1392033)

* Previously, the operating system occasionally became unresponsive after a long run. This was caused by a race condition between the try_to_wake_up() function and a woken up task in the core scheduler.
With this update, the race condition has been fixed, and the operating system no longer locks up in the described scenario. (BZ#1393719)

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 GA LTSS kernel was updated to 3.12.61 to receive various security and bugfixes. The following feature was implemented :

  - The ext2 filesystem got reenabled and supported to allow     support for 'XIP' (Execute In Place) (FATE#320805). The     following security bugs were fixed :

  - CVE-2017-5551: The tmpfs filesystem implementation in     the Linux kernel preserved the setgid bit during a     setxattr call, which allowed local users to gain group     privileges by leveraging the existence of a setgid     program with restrictions on execute permissions     (bsc#1021258).

  - CVE-2016-7097: The filesystem implementation in the     Linux kernel preserved the setgid bit during a setxattr     call, which allowed local users to gain group privileges     by leveraging the existence of a setgid program with     restrictions on execute permissions (bnc#995968).

  - CVE-2017-2583: A Linux kernel built with the     Kernel-based Virtual Machine (CONFIG_KVM) support was     vulnerable to an incorrect segment selector(SS) value     error. A user/process inside guest could have used this     flaw to crash the guest resulting in DoS or potentially     escalate their privileges inside guest. (bsc#1020602).

  - CVE-2017-2584: arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux     kernel allowed 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 (bnc#1019851).

  - CVE-2016-10088: The sg implementation in the Linux     kernel did not properly restrict write operations in     situations where the KERNEL_DS option is set, which     allowed local users to read or write to arbitrary kernel     memory locations or cause a denial of service     (use-after-free) by leveraging access to a /dev/sg     device, related to block/bsg.c and drivers/scsi/sg.c.
    NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete     fix for CVE-2016-9576 (bnc#1017710).

  - CVE-2016-8645: The TCP stack in the Linux kernel     mishandled skb truncation, which allowed local users to     cause a denial of service (system crash) via a crafted     application that made sendto system calls, related to     net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c and net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c     (bnc#1009969).

  - CVE-2016-8399: An elevation of privilege vulnerability     in the kernel networking subsystem could enable a local     malicious application to execute arbitrary code within     the context of the kernel. This issue is rated as     Moderate because it first requires compromising a     privileged process and current compiler optimizations     restrict access to the vulnerable code. Product:
    Android. Versions: Kernel-3.10, Kernel-3.18. Android ID:
    A-31349935 (bnc#1014746).

  - CVE-2016-9806: Race condition in the netlink_dump     function in net/netlink/af_netlink.c in the Linux kernel     allowed local users to cause a denial of service (double     free) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a     crafted application that made sendmsg system calls,     leading to a free operation associated with a new dump     that started earlier than anticipated (bnc#1013540).

  - CVE-2016-9756: arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux     kernel did not properly initialize Code Segment (CS) in     certain error cases, which allowed local users to obtain     sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a     crafted application (bnc#1013038).

  - CVE-2016-9793: The sock_setsockopt function in     net/core/sock.c in the Linux kernel mishandled negative     values of sk_sndbuf and sk_rcvbuf, which allowed local     users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption     and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other     impact by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for a     crafted setsockopt system call with the (1)     SO_SNDBUFFORCE or (2) SO_RCVBUFFORCE option     (bnc#1013531).

  - CVE-2016-7910: Use-after-free vulnerability in the     disk_seqf_stop function in block/genhd.c in the Linux     kernel allowed local users to gain privileges by     leveraging the execution of a certain stop operation     even if the corresponding start operation had failed     (bnc#1010716).

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 Linux kernel. There is an     information leak in file 'sound/core/timer.c' of the     latest mainline Linux kernel, the stack object     aEURoetreadaEUR has a total size of 32 bytes. It contains a     8-bytes padding, which is not initialized but sent to     user via copy_to_user(), resulting a kernel     leak.(CVE-2016-4569)

  - A vulnerability was found in Linux kernel. There is an     information leak in file sound/core/timer.c of the     latest mainline Linux kernel. The stack object aEURoer1aEUR     has a total size of 32 bytes. Its field aEURoeeventaEUR and     aEURoevalaEUR both contain 4 bytes padding. These 8 bytes     padding bytes are sent to user without being     initialized.(CVE-2016-4578)

  - The x25_negotiate_facilities function in     net/x25/x25_facilities.c in the Linux kernel before     4.5.5 does not properly initialize a certain data     structure, which allows attackers to obtain sensitive     information from kernel stack memory via an X.25 Call     Request.(CVE-2016-4580)

  - fs/pnode.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5.4 does not     properly traverse a mount propagation tree in a certain     case involving a slave mount, which allows local users     to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference     and OOPS) via a crafted series of mount system     calls.(CVE-2016-4581)

  - Use after free vulnerability was found in percpu using     previously allocated memory in bpf. First
    __alloc_percpu_gfp() is called, then the memory is     freed with free_percpu() which triggers async     pcpu_balance_work and then pcpu_extend_area_map could     use a chunk after it has been freed.(CVE-2016-4794)

  - Use-after-free vulnerability in     drivers/net/ppp/ppp_generic.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.5.2 allows local users to cause a denial of     service (memory corruption and system crash, or     spinlock) or possibly have unspecified other impact by     removing a network namespace, related to the     ppp_register_net_channel and ppp_unregister_channel     functions.(CVE-2016-4805)

  - A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel. Payloads     of NM entries are not supposed to contain NUL. When     such entry is processed, only the part prior to the     first NUL goes into the concatenation (i.e. the     directory entry name being encoded by a bunch of NM     entries). The process stops when the amount collected     so far + the claimed amount in the current NM entry     exceed 254. However, the value returned as the total     length is the sum of *claimed* sizes, not the actual     amount collected. And that's what will be passed to     readdir() callback as the name length - 8Kb

    __get_free_page().(CVE-2016-4913)

  - A flaw was discovered in processing setsockopt for 32     bit processes on 64 bit systems. This flaw will allow     attackers to alter arbitrary kernel memory when     unloading a kernel module. This action is usually     restricted to root-privileged users but can also be     leveraged if the kernel is compiled with CONFIG_USER_NS     and CONFIG_NET_NS and the user is granted elevated     privileges.(CVE-2016-4997)

  - An out-of-bounds heap memory access leading to a Denial     of Service, heap disclosure, or further impact was     found in setsockopt(). The function call is normally     restricted to root, however some processes with     cap_sys_admin may also be able to trigger this flaw in     privileged container environments.(CVE-2016-4998)

  - A race condition was found in the way the Linux     kernel's memory subsystem handled the copy-on-write     (COW) breakage of private read-only memory mappings. An     unprivileged, local user could use this flaw to gain     write access to otherwise read-only memory mappings and     thus increase their privileges on the     system.(CVE-2016-5195)

  - It was found that the RFC 5961 challenge ACK rate     limiting as implemented in the Linux kernel's     networking subsystem allowed an off-path attacker to     leak certain information about a given connection by     creating congestion on the global challenge ACK rate     limit counter and then measuring the changes by probing     packets. An off-path attacker could use this flaw to     either terminate TCP connection and/or inject payload     into non-secured TCP connection between two endpoints     on the network.(CVE-2016-5696)

  - A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was found in     the Linux kernel's hiddev driver. This flaw could allow     a local attacker to corrupt kernel memory, possible     privilege escalation or crashing the     system.(CVE-2016-5829)

  - When creating audit records for parameters to executed     children processes, an attacker can convince the Linux     kernel audit subsystem can create corrupt records which     may allow an attacker to misrepresent or evade logging     of executing commands.(CVE-2016-6136)

  - It was found that the unlink and rename functionality     in overlayfs did not verify the upper dentry for     staleness. A local, unprivileged user could use the     rename syscall on overlayfs on top of xfs to panic or     crash the system.(CVE-2016-6197)

  - A flaw was found that the vfs_rename() function did not     detect hard links on overlayfs. A local, unprivileged     user could use the rename syscall on overlayfs on top     of xfs to crash the system.(CVE-2016-6198)

  - System using the infiniband support module ib_srpt were     vulnerable to a denial of service by system crash by a     local attacker who is able to abort writes to a device     using this initiator.(CVE-2016-6327)

  - A race condition flaw was found in the ioctl_send_fib()     function in the Linux kernel's aacraid implementation.
    A local attacker could use this flaw to cause a denial     of service (out-of-bounds access or system crash) by     changing a certain size value.(CVE-2016-6480)

  - kernel/events/core.c in the performance subsystem in     the Linux kernel before 4.0 mismanages locks during     certain migrations, which allows local users to gain     privileges via a crafted application, aka Android     internal bug 30955111.(CVE-2016-6786)

  - kernel/events/core.c in the performance subsystem in     the Linux kernel before 4.0 mismanages locks during     certain migrations, which allows local users to gain     privileges via a crafted application, aka Android     internal bug 31095224.(CVE-2016-6787)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability was found in     tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue and other tcp_* functions.
    This condition could allow an attacker to send an     incorrect selective acknowledgment to existing     connections, possibly resetting a     connection.(CVE-2016-6828)

  - Linux kernel built with the 802.1Q/802.1ad     VLAN(CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q) OR Virtual eXtensible Local     Area Network(CONFIG_VXLAN) with Transparent Ethernet     Bridging(TEB) GRO support, is vulnerable to a stack     overflow issue. It could occur while receiving large     packets via GRO path, as an unlimited recursion could     unfold in both VLAN and TEB modules, leading to a stack     corruption in the kernel.(CVE-2016-7039)

  - It was found that when the gcc stack protector was     enabled, reading the /proc/keys file could cause a     panic in the Linux kernel due to stack corruption. This     happened because an incorrect buffer size was used to     hold a 64-bit timeout value rendered as     weeks.(CVE-2016-7042)

  - It was found that when file permissions were modified     via chmod and the user modifying them was not in the     owning group or capable of CAP_FSETID, the setgid bit     would be cleared. Setting a POSIX ACL via setxattr sets     the file permissions as well as the new ACL, but     doesn't clear the setgid bit in a similar way. This     could allow a local user to gain group privileges via     certain setgid applications.(CVE-2016-7097)

  - CVE-2016-7117: Use-after-free vulnerability in the
    __sys_recvmmsg function in net/socket.c in the Linux     kernel allowed remote attackers to execute arbitrary     code via vectors involving a recvmmsg system call that     is mishandled during error processing (bnc#1003077).

  - CVE-2016-0823: The pagemap_open function in     fs/proc/task_mmu.c in the Linux kernel before 3.19.3, as     used in Android 6.0.1 before 2016-03-01, allowed local     users to obtain sensitive physical-address information     by reading a pagemap file, aka Android internal bug     25739721 (bnc#994759).

  - CVE-2016-7425: The arcmsr_iop_message_xfer function in     drivers/scsi/arcmsr/arcmsr_hba.c in the Linux kernel did     not restrict a certain length field, which allowed local     users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service     (heap-based buffer overflow) via an     ARCMSR_MESSAGE_WRITE_WQBUFFER control code (bnc#999932).

  - CVE-2016-6327: drivers/infiniband/ulp/srpt/ib_srpt.c in     the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial     of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash)     by using an ABORT_TASK command to abort a device write     operation (bnc#994748).

  - CVE-2016-6828: The tcp_check_send_head function in     include/net/tcp.h in the Linux kernel did not properly     maintain certain SACK state after a failed data copy,     which allowed local users to cause a denial of service     (tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue use-after-free and system     crash) via a crafted SACK option (bnc#994296).

  - CVE-2016-5696: net/ipv4/tcp_input.c in the Linux kernel     did not properly determine the rate of challenge ACK     segments, which made it easier for man-in-the-middle     attackers to hijack TCP sessions via a blind in-window     attack (bnc#989152)

  - CVE-2016-6480: Race condition in the ioctl_send_fib     function in drivers/scsi/aacraid/commctrl.c in the Linux     kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service     (out-of-bounds access or system crash) by changing a     certain size value, aka a 'double fetch' vulnerability     (bnc#991608).

  - CVE-2015-7513: arch/x86/kvm/x86.c in the Linux kernel     did not reset the PIT counter values during state     restoration, which allowed guest OS users to cause a     denial of service (divide-by-zero error and host OS     crash) via a zero value, related to the     kvm_vm_ioctl_set_pit and kvm_vm_ioctl_set_pit2 functions     (bnc#960689).

  - CVE-2016-1237: nfsd in the Linux kernel allowed local     users to bypass intended file-permission restrictions by     setting a POSIX ACL, related to nfs2acl.c, nfs3acl.c,     and nfs4acl.c (bnc#986570).

According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz),     the core of any Linux operating system. The kernel     handles the basic functions of the operating system:
    memory allocation, process allocation, device input and     output, etc.Security Fix(es):A flaw named FragmentSmack     was found in the way the Linux kernel handled     reassembly of fragmented IPv4 and IPv6 packets. A     remote attacker could use this flaw to trigger time and     calculation expensive fragment reassembly algorithm by     sending specially crafted packets which could lead to a     CPU saturation and hence a denial of service on the     system.(CVE-2018-5391)Multiple out-of-bounds write     flaws were found in the way the Cherry Cymotion     keyboard driver, KYE/Genius device drivers, Logitech     device drivers, Monterey Genius KB29E keyboard driver,     Petalynx Maxter remote control driver, and Sunplus     wireless desktop driver handled HID reports with an     invalid report descriptor size. An attacker with     physical access to the system could use either of these     flaws to write data past an allocated memory     buffer.(CVE-2014-3184)The __get_data_block function in     fs/f2fs/data.c in the Linux kernel before 4.11 allows     local users to cause a denial of service (integer     overflow and loop) via crafted use of the open and     fallocate system calls with an FS_IOC_FIEMAP     ioctl.(CVE-2017-18257)netetfilter/xt_osf.c in the Linux     kernel through 4.14.4 does not require the     CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for add_callback and     remove_callback operations. This allows local users to     bypass intended access restrictions because the     xt_osf_fingers data structure is shared across all     network namespaces.(CVE-2017-17450)A denial of service     flaw was discovered in the Linux kernel, where a race     condition caused a NULL pointer dereference in the RDS     socket-creation code. A local attacker could use this     flaw to create a situation in which a NULL pointer     crashed the kernel.(CVE-2015-7990)An issue was     discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.19.9. The USB     subsystem mishandles size checks during the reading of     an extra descriptor, related to
    __usb_get_extra_descriptor in     drivers/usb/core/usb.c.(CVE-2018-20169)mm/memory.c in     the Linux kernel before 4.1.4 mishandles anonymous     pages, which allows local users to gain privileges or     cause a denial of service (page tainting) via a crafted     application that triggers writing to page     zero.(CVE-2015-3288)The ovl_setattr function in     fs/overlayfs/inode.c in the Linux kernel through 4.3.3     attempts to merge distinct setattr operations, which     allows local users to bypass intended access     restrictions and modify the attributes of arbitrary     overlay files via a crafted     application.(CVE-2015-8660)A flaw was found in the     Linux kernel where a local user with a shell account     can abuse the userfaultfd syscall when using hugetlbfs.
    A missing size check in hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte could     create an invalid inode variable, leading to a kernel     panic.(CVE-2017-15128)An integer overflow flaw was     found in the way the lzo1x_decompress_safe() function     of the Linux kernel's LZO implementation processed     Literal Runs. A local attacker could, in extremely rare     cases, use this flaw to crash the system or,     potentially, escalate their privileges on the     system.(CVE-2014-4608)It was found that Linux kernel's     ptrace subsystem did not properly sanitize the     address-space-control bits when the program-status word     (PSW) was being set. On IBM S/390 systems, a local,     unprivileged user could use this flaw to set     address-space-control bits to the kernel space, and     thus gain read and write access to kernel     memory.(CVE-2014-3534)A use-after-free flaw was found     in the Linux kernel's file system encryption     implementation. A local user could revoke keyring keys     being used for ext4, f2fs, or ubifs encryption, causing     a denial of service on the system.(CVE-2017-7374)The     usbip_recv_xbuff function in     drivers/usb/usbip/usbip_common.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.5.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial     of service (out-of-bounds write) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a crafted length value in     a USB/IP packet.(CVE-2016-3955)A flaw was found in the     patches used to fix the 'dirtycow' vulnerability     (CVE-2016-5195). An attacker, able to run local code,     can exploit a race condition in transparent huge pages     to modify usually read-only huge     pages.(CVE-2017-1000405)The aio_mount function in     fs/aio.c in the Linux kernel does not properly restrict     execute access, which makes it easier for local users     to bypass intended SELinux W^X policy     restrictions.(CVE-2016-10044)The Serial Attached SCSI     (SAS) implementation in the Linux kernel mishandles a     mutex within libsas. This allows local users to cause a     denial of service (deadlock) by triggering certain     error-handling code.(CVE-2017-18232)A use-after-free     vulnerability was found in tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue     and other tcp_* functions. This condition could allow     an attacker to send an incorrect selective     acknowledgment to existing connections, possibly     resetting a connection.(CVE-2016-6828)The instruction     decoder in arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the KVM subsystem     in the Linux kernel before 3.18-rc2 does not properly     handle invalid instructions, which allows guest OS     users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and host OS crash) via a crafted     application that triggers (1) an improperly fetched     instruction or (2) an instruction that occupies too     many bytes. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of     an incomplete fix for CVE-2014-8480.(CVE-2014-8481)The     snd_compress_check_input function in     sound/core/compress_offload.c in the ALSA subsystem in     the Linux kernel before 3.17 does not properly check     for an integer overflow, which allows local users to     cause a denial of service (insufficient memory     allocation) or possibly have unspecified other impact     via a crafted SNDRV_COMPRESS_SET_PARAMS ioctl     call.(CVE-2014-9904)The resv_map_release function in     mm/hugetlb.c in the Linux kernel, through 4.15.7,     allows local users to cause a denial of service (BUG)     via a crafted application that makes mmap system calls     and has a large pgoff argument to the remap_file_pages     system call.(CVE-2018-7740)
