Class: PATCH | Family: unix |
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of wireless drivers using the Atheros chipsets. An attacker within wireless range could send crafted traffic leading to information disclosure. A flaw was found in the KVM's AMD code for supporting SVM nested virtualization. The flaw occurs when processing the VMCB provided by the L1 guest to spawn/handle a nested guest . Due to improper validation of the int_ctl field, this issue could allow a malicious L1 to enable AVIC support for the L2 guest. As a result, the L2 guest would be allowed to read/write physical pages of the host, resulting in a crash of the entire system, leak of sensitive data or potential guest-to-host escape. A flaw was found in the KVM's AMD code for supporting SVM nested virtualization. The flaw occurs when processing the VMCB provided by the L1 guest to spawn/handle a nested guest . Due to improper validation of the virt_ext field, this issue could allow a malicious L1 to disable both VMLOAD/VMSAVE intercepts and VLS for the L2 guest. As a result, the L2 guest would be allowed to read/write physical pages of the host, resulting in a crash of the entire system, leak of sensitive data or potential guest-to-host escape. A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the btrfs_rm_device function in fs/btrfs/volumes.c in the Linux Kernel, where triggering the bug requires 'CAP_SYS_ADMIN'. This flaw allows a local attacker to crash the system or leak kernel internal information. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability. A race problem was seen in the vt_k_ioctl in drivers/tty/vt/vt_ioctl.c in the Linux kernel, which may cause an out of bounds read in vt as the write access to vc_mode is not protected by lock-in vt_ioctl . The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality. A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. An integer overflow can allow an out-of-bounds write when many elements are placed in a hash's bucket. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability. A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A race condition was discovered in the ext4 subsystem. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability
