Class: PATCHFamily: unix




Infinite recursion in ahash.c by triggering EBUSY on a full queue:A vulnerability was found in crypto/ahash.c in the Linux kernel which allows attackers to cause a denial of service by triggering EBUSY on a full queue.Time subsystem allows local users to discover real PID values:The time subsystem in the Linux kernel, when CONFIG_TIMER_STATS is enabled, allows local users to discover real PID values by reading the /proc/timer_list file, related to the print_timer function in kernel/time/timer_list.c and the __timer_stats_timer_set_start_info function in kernel/time/timer.c.Stack-based buffer overflow in sg_ioctl function:The sg_ioctl function in drivers/scsi/sg.c in the Linux kernel allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impacts via a large command size in an SG_NEXT_CMD_LEN ioctl call, leading to out-of-bounds write access in the sg_write function. Incorrect error handling in the set_mempolicy and mbind compat syscalls in mm/mempolicy.c: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. Race condition in Link Layer Control:A race condition leading to a NULL pointer dereference was found in the Linux kernel"s Link Layer Control implementation. A local attacker with access to ping sockets could use this flaw to crash the system. Overflow in check for priv area size:It was found that the packet_set_ring function of the Linux kernel"s networking implementation did not properly validate certain block-size data. A local attacker with CAP_NET_RAW capability could use this flaw to trigger a buffer overflow, resulting in the crash of the system. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely
