Debian Bug : 825141
Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that
may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service, or information
leak.
CVE-2022-2873
Zheyu Ma discovered that an out-of-bounds memory access flaw in
the Intel iSMT SMBus 2.0 host controller driver may result in
denial of service (system crash).
CVE-2022-3424
Zheng Wang and Zhuorao Yang reported a flaw in the SGI GRU driver
which could lead to a use-after-free. On systems where this driver
is used, a local user can explit this for denial of service (crash
or memory corruption) or possibly for privilege escalation.
This driver is not enabled in Debian's official kernel
configurations.
CVE-2022-3545
It was discovered that the Netronome Flow Processor (NFP) driver
contained a use-after-free flaw in area_cache_get(), which may
result in denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code.
CVE-2022-3707
Zheng Wang reported a flaw in the i915 graphics driver's
virtualisation (GVT-g) support that could lead to a double-free.
On systems where this feature is used, a guest can exploit this
for denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for
privilege escalation.
CVE-2022-4744
The syzkaller tool found a flaw in the TUN/TAP network driver,
which can lead to a double-free. A local user can exploit this
for denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for
privilege escalation.
CVE-2022-36280
An out-of-bounds memory write vulnerability was discovered in the
vmwgfx driver, which may allow a local unprivileged user to cause
a denial of service (system crash).
CVE-2022-41218
Hyunwoo Kim reported a use-after-free flaw in the Media DVB core
subsystem caused by refcount races, which may allow a local user
to cause a denial of service or escalate privileges.
CVE-2022-45934
An integer overflow in l2cap_config_req() in the Bluetooth
subsystem was discovered, which may allow a physically proximate
attacker to cause a denial of service (system crash).
CVE-2022-47929
Frederick Lawler reported a NULL pointer dereference in the
traffic control subsystem allowing an unprivileged user to cause a
denial of service by setting up a specially crafted traffic
control configuration.
CVE-2023-0045
Rodrigo Branco and Rafael Correa De Ysasi reported that when a
user-space task told the kernel to enable Spectre v2 mitigation
for it, the mitigation was not enabled until the task was next
rescheduled. This might be exploitable by a local or remote
attacker to leak sensitive information from such an application.
CVE-2023-0266
A use-after-free flaw in the sound subsystem due to missing
locking may result in denial of service or privilege escalation.
CVE-2023-0394
Kyle Zeng discovered a NULL pointer dereference flaw in
rawv6_push_pending_frames() in the network subsystem allowing a
local user to cause a denial of service (system crash).
CVE-2023-0458
Jordy Zimmer and Alexandra Sandulescu found that getrlimit() and
related system calls were vulnerable to speculative execution
attacks such as Spectre v1. A local user could explot this to
leak sensitive information from the kernel.
CVE-2023-0459
Jordy Zimmer and Alexandra Sandulescu found a regression in
Spectre v1 mitigation in the user-copy functions for the amd64
(64-bit PC) architecture. Where the CPUs do not implement SMAP or
it is disabled, a local user could exploit this to leak sensitive
information from the kernel. Other architectures may also be
affected.
CVE-2023-0461
"slipper" reported a flaw in the kernel's support for ULPs (Upper
Layer Protocols) on top of TCP that can lead to a double-free when
using kernel TLS sockets. A local user can exploit this for
denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for
privilege escalation.
Kernel TLS is not enabled in Debian's official kernel
configurations.
CVE-2023-1073
Pietro Borrello reported a type confusion flaw in the HID (Human
Interface Device) subsystem. An attacker able to insert and
remove USB devices might be able to use this to cause a denial of
service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly to run arbitrary
code in the kernel.
CVE-2023-1074
Pietro Borrello reported a type confusion flaw in the SCTP
protocol implementation which can lead to a memory leak. A local
user could exploit this to cause a denial of service (resource
exhaustion).
CVE-2023-1078
Pietro Borrello reported a type confusion flaw in the RDS protocol
implementation. A local user could exploit this to cause a denial
of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for privilege
escalation.
CVE-2023-1079
Pietro Borrello reported a race condition in the hid-asus HID
driver which could lead to a use-after-free. An attacker able to
insert and remove USB devices can use this to cause a denial of
service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly to run arbitrary
code in the kernel.
CVE-2023-1118
Duoming Zhou reported a race condition in the ene_ir remote
control driver that can lead to a use-after-free if the driver
is unbound. It is not clear what the security impact of this is.
CVE-2023-1281, CVE-2023-1829
"valis" reported two flaws in the cls_tcindex network traffic
classifier which could lead to a use-after-free. A local user can
exploit these for privilege escalation. This update removes
cls_tcindex entirely.
CVE-2023-1513
Xingyuan Mo reported an information leak in the KVM implementation
for the i386 (32-bit PC) architecture. A local user could exploit
this to leak sensitive information from the kernel.
CVE-2023-1670
Zheng Wang reported a race condition in the xirc2ps_cs network
driver which can lead to a use-after-free. An attacker able to
insert and remove PCMCIA devices can use this to cause a denial of
service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly to run arbitrary
code in the kernel.
CVE-2023-1855
Zheng Wang reported a race condition in the xgene-hwmon hardware
monitoring driver that may lead to a use-after-free. It is not
clear what the security impact of this is.
CVE-2023-1859
