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

  - The skb_flow_dissect function in     net/core/flow_dissector.c in the Linux kernel through     3.12 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of     service (infinite loop) via a small value in the IHL     field of a packet with IPIP     encapsulation.(CVE-2013-4348)

  - The IPv6 SCTP implementation in net/sctp/ipv6.c in the     Linux kernel through 3.11.1 uses data structures and     function calls that do not trigger an intended     configuration of IPsec encryption, which allows remote     attackers to obtain sensitive information by sniffing     the network.(CVE-2013-4350)

  - net/ipv6/ip6_output.c in the Linux kernel through     3.11.4 does not properly determine the need for UDP     Fragmentation Offload (UFO) processing of small packets     after the UFO queueing of a large packet, which allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory     corruption and system crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via network traffic that     triggers a large response packet.(CVE-2013-4387)

  - The Linux kernel before 3.12, when UDP Fragmentation     Offload (UFO) is enabled, does not properly initialize     certain data structures, which allows local users to     cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system     crash) or possibly gain privileges via a crafted     application that uses the UDP_CORK option in a     setsockopt system call and sends both short and long     packets, related to the ip_ufo_append_data function in     net/ipv4/ip_output.c and the ip6_ufo_append_data     function in net/ipv6/ip6_output.c.(CVE-2013-4470)

  - Multiple integer overflows in Alchemy LCD frame-buffer     drivers in the Linux kernel before 3.12 allow local     users to create a read-write memory mapping for the     entirety of kernel memory, and consequently gain     privileges, via crafted mmap operations, related to the     (1) au1100fb_fb_mmap function in     drivers/video/au1100fb.c and the (2) au1200fb_fb_mmap     function in drivers/video/au1200fb.c.(CVE-2013-4511)

  - The udp6_ufo_fragment function in     net/ipv6/udp_offload.c in the Linux kernel through     3.12, when UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) is enabled,     does not properly perform a certain size comparison     before inserting a fragment header, which allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) via a     large IPv6 UDP packet, as demonstrated by use of the     Token Bucket Filter (TBF) queueing     discipline.(CVE-2013-4563)

  - The ath9k_htc_set_bssid_mask function in     drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/htc_drv_main.c in the     Linux kernel through 3.12 uses a BSSID masking approach     to determine the set of MAC addresses on which a Wi-Fi     device is listening, which allows remote attackers to     discover the original MAC address after spoofing by     sending a series of packets to MAC addresses with     certain bit manipulations.(CVE-2013-4579)

  - Array index error in the kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu     function in virt/kvm/kvm_main.c in the KVM subsystem in     the Linux kernel through 3.12.5 allows local users to     gain privileges via a large id value.(CVE-2013-4587)

  - The apic_get_tmcct function in arch/x86/kvm/lapic.c in     the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.12.5     allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service     (divide-by-zero error and host OS crash) via crafted     modifications of the TMICT value.(CVE-2013-6367)

  - The KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.12.5     allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial     of service (system crash) via a VAPIC synchronization     operation involving a page-end address.(CVE-2013-6368)

  - The recalculate_apic_map function in     arch/x86/kvm/lapic.c in the KVM subsystem in the Linux     kernel through 3.12.5 allows guest OS users to cause a     denial of service (host OS crash) via a crafted ICR     write operation in x2apic mode.(CVE-2013-6376)

  - The lbs_debugfs_write function in     drivers/net/wireless/libertas/debugfs.c in the Linux     kernel through 3.12.1 allows local users to cause a     denial of service (OOPS) by leveraging root privileges     for a zero-length write operation.(CVE-2013-6378)

  - The aac_send_raw_srb function in     drivers/scsi/aacraid/commctrl.c in the Linux kernel     through 3.12.1 does not properly validate a certain     size value, which allows local users to cause a denial     of service (invalid pointer dereference) or possibly     have unspecified other impact via an     FSACTL_SEND_RAW_SRB ioctl call that triggers a crafted     SRB command.(CVE-2013-6380)

  - Multiple buffer underflows in the XFS implementation in     the Linux kernel through 3.12.1 allow local users to     cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or     possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging     the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability for a (1)     XFS_IOC_ATTRLIST_BY_HANDLE or (2)     XFS_IOC_ATTRLIST_BY_HANDLE_32 ioctl call with a crafted     length value, related to the xfs_attrlist_by_handle     function in fs/xfs/xfs_ioctl.c and the     xfs_compat_attrlist_by_handle function in     fs/xfs/xfs_ioctl32.c.(CVE-2013-6382)

  - The aac_compat_ioctl function in     drivers/scsi/aacraid/linit.c in the Linux kernel before     3.11.8 does not require the CAP_SYS_RAWIO capability,     which allows local users to bypass intended access     restrictions via a crafted ioctl call.(CVE-2013-6383)

  - The fib6_add function in net/ipv6/ip6_fib.c in the     Linux kernel before 3.11.5 does not properly implement     error-code encoding, which allows local users to cause     a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and     system crash) by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN     capability for an IPv6 SIOCADDRT ioctl     call.(CVE-2013-6431)

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 for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - It was found that the parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal()     function of the Linux kernel's ISOFS implementation did     not correctly check relocated directories when     processing Rock Ridge child link (CL) tags. An attacker     with physical access to the system could use a     specially crafted ISO image to crash the system or,     potentially, escalate their privileges on the     system.(CVE-2014-5472i1/4%0

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel's F2FS     filesystem code. An out-of-bounds access vulnerability     is possible the in __remove_dirty_segment() in     fs/f2fs/segment.c function when mounting a crafted f2fs     image.(CVE-2018-14614i1/4%0

  - Race condition in kernel/events/core.c in the Linux     kernel before 4.4 allows local users to gain privileges     or cause a denial of service via use-after-free     vulnerability by leveraging incorrect handling of an     swevent data structure during a CPU unplug     operation.(CVE-2015-8963i1/4%0

  - The skbs processed by ip_cmsg_recv() are not guaranteed     to be linear (e.g. when sending UDP packets over     loopback with MSGMORE). Using csum_partial() on     potentially the whole skb len is dangerous instead be     on the safe side and use skb_checksum(). This may lead     to an infoleak as the kernel memory may be checksummed     and sent as part of the packet.(CVE-2017-6347i1/4%0

  - The apic_get_tmcct function in arch/x86/kvm/lapic.c in     the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.12.5     allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service     (divide-by-zero error and host OS crash) via crafted     modifications of the TMICT value.(CVE-2013-6367i1/4%0

  - A use-after-free issue was found in the way the Linux     kernel's KVM hypervisor processed posted interrupts     when nested(=1) virtualization is enabled. In     nested_get_vmcs12_pages(), in case of an error while     processing posted interrupt address, it unmaps the     'pi_desc_page' without resetting 'pi_desc' descriptor     address, which is later used in pi_test_and_clear_on().
    A guest user/process could use this flaw to crash the     host kernel resulting in DoS or potentially gain     privileged access to a system.(CVE-2018-16882i1/4%0

  - It was discovered that the atl2_probe() function in the     Atheros L2 Ethernet driver in the Linux kernel     incorrectly enabled scatter/gather I/O. A remote     attacker could use this flaw to obtain potentially     sensitive information from the kernel     memory.(CVE-2016-2117i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the way the nft_flush_table()     function of the Linux kernel's netfilter tables     implementation flushed rules that were referencing     deleted chains. A local user who has the CAP_NET_ADMIN     capability could use this flaw to crash the     system.(CVE-2015-1573i1/4%0

  - The powermate_probe function in     drivers/input/misc/powermate.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to     cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and     system crash) via a crafted endpoints value in a USB     device descriptor.(CVE-2016-2186i1/4%0

  - It was found that KVM's Write to Model Specific     Register (WRMSR) instruction emulation would write     non-canonical values passed in by the guest to certain     MSRs in the host's context. A privileged guest user     could use this flaw to crash the host.(CVE-2014-3610i1/4%0

  - The BPF_S_ANC_NLATTR_NEST extension implementation in     the sk_run_filter function in net/core/filter.c in the     Linux kernel through 3.14.3 uses the reverse order in a     certain subtraction, which allows local users to cause     a denial of service (over-read and system crash) via     crafted BPF instructions. NOTE: the affected code was     moved to the __skb_get_nlattr_nest function before the     vulnerability was announced.(CVE-2014-3145i1/4%0

  - The yam_ioctl function in drivers/net/hamradio/yam.c in     the Linux kernel before 3.12.8 does not initialize a     certain structure member, which allows local users to     obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by     leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for an     SIOCYAMGCFG ioctl call.(CVE-2014-1446i1/4%0

  - A race condition flaw was found in the N_HLDC Linux     kernel driver when accessing n_hdlc.tbuf list that can     lead to double free. A local, unprivileged user able to     set the HDLC line discipline on the tty device could     use this flaw to increase their privileges on the     system.(CVE-2017-2636i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the way Linux kernel's Transparent     Huge Pages (THP) implementation handled non-huge page     migration. A local, unprivileged user could use this     flaw to crash the kernel by migrating transparent     hugepages.(CVE-2014-3940i1/4%0

  - A security flaw was found in the     chap_server_compute_md5() function in the ISCSI target     code in the Linux kernel in a way an authentication     request from an ISCSI initiator is processed. An     unauthenticated remote attacker can cause a stack     buffer overflow and smash up to 17 bytes of the stack.
    The attack requires the iSCSI target to be enabled on     the victim host. Depending on how the target's code was     built (i.e. depending on a compiler, compile flags and     hardware architecture) an attack may lead to a system     crash and thus to a denial of service or possibly to a     non-authorized access to data exported by an iSCSI     target. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege     escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we     believe it is highly unlikely.(CVE-2018-14633i1/4%0

  - 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-2017-7495i1/4%0

  - drivers/media/platform/msm/broadcast/tsc.c in the TSC     driver for the Linux kernel 3.x, as used in Qualcomm     Innovation Center (QuIC) Android contributions for MSM     devices and other products, allows attackers to cause a     denial of service (invalid pointer dereference) or     possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted     application that makes a TSC_GET_CARD_STATUS ioctl     call.(CVE-2015-0573i1/4%0

  - 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-2016-6197i1/4%0

  - In net/socket.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.1,     there is a race condition between fchownat and close in     cases where they target the same socket file     descriptor, related to the sock_close and     sockfs_setattr functions. fchownat does not increment     the file descriptor reference count, which allows close     to set the socket to NULL during fchownat's execution,     leading to a NULL pointer dereference and system     crash.(CVE-2018-12232i1/4%0

  - The ath9k_htc_set_bssid_mask function in     drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/htc_drv_main.c in the     Linux kernel through 3.12 uses a BSSID masking approach     to determine the set of MAC addresses on which a Wi-Fi     device is listening, which allows remote attackers to     discover the original MAC address after spoofing by     sending a series of packets to MAC addresses with     certain bit manipulations.(CVE-2013-4579i1/4%0

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.

The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the UTSA-2026-002097 advisory.

    The ath9k_htc_set_bssid_mask function in drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/htc_drv_main.c in the Linux kernel     through 3.12 uses a BSSID masking approach to determine the set of MAC addresses on which a Wi-Fi device     is listening, which allows remote attackers to discover the original MAC address after spoofing by sending     a series of packets to MAC addresses with certain bit manipulations.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Unity Linux security advisory.

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

Mathy Vanhoef discovered an error in the the way the ath9k driver was handling the BSSID masking. A remote attacker could exploit this error to discover the original MAC address after a spoofing atack.

This update for the compat-wireless kernel modules provides many fixes and enhancements :

  - Fix potential crash problem in ath9k. (CVE-2014-2672,     bnc#871148)

  - Fix improper updates of MAC addresses in ath9k_htc.
    (bnc#851426, CVE-2013-4579)

  - Fix stability issues in iwlwifi. (bnc#865475)

  - Improve support for Intel 7625 cards in iwlwifi.
    (bnc#51021) Installation notes :

New driver modules may conflict with old modules, which are automatically loaded from the initrd file after reboot. To apply this maintenance update correctly, the following steps need to be executed on a SLEPOS system :

  - Rebuild image

  - Create specific scDistributionContainer with newly built     initrd and kernel

  - Put the updated system image in it as a scPosImage     object Alternatively, you can use a kernel parameter to     enforce using the kernel from the system image :

  - Rebuild image

  - Set the kernel parameter FORCE_KEXEC, by adding the     scPxeFileTemplate object under the relevant scPosImage     object, with the scKernelParameters attribute containing     'FORCE_KEXEC=yes'.

The Linux Kernel was updated to fix various security issues and bugs.

Main security issues fixed :

A security issue in the tty layer that was fixed that could be used by local attackers for code execution (CVE-2014-0196).

Two security issues in the floppy driver were fixed that could be used by local attackers on machines with the floppy to crash the kernel or potentially execute code in the kernel (CVE-2014-1737 CVE-2014-1738).

Other security issues and bugs that were fixed :

  - netfilter: nf_nat: fix access to uninitialized buffer in     IRC NAT helper (bnc#860835 CVE-2014-1690).

  - Update config files: re-enable twofish crypto support     Software twofish crypto support was disabled in several     architectures since openSUSE 10.3. For i386 and x86_64     it was on purpose, because hardware-accelerated     alternatives exist. However for all other architectures     it was by accident. Re-enable software twofish crypto     support in arm, ia64 and ppc configuration files, to     guarantee that at least one implementation is always     available (bnc#871325).

  - Update config files: disable CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_W90X900     The w90p910_ts driver only makes sense on the W90x900     architecture, which we do not support.

  - ath9k: protect tid->sched check     (bnc#871148,CVE-2014-2672).

  - Revert 'Delete     patches.fixes/xfs-fix-xfs_buf_find-oops-on-blocks-beyond
    -the-filesystem-end.' (bnc#858233) Put back again the     patch     patches.fixes/xfs-fix-xfs_buf_find-oops-on-blocks-beyond
    -the-filesystem-end back as there is a better fix than     reverting the affecting patch.

  - Delete     patches.fixes/xfs-fix-xfs_buf_find-oops-on-blocks-beyond
    -the-filesystem-end. It turned out that this patch     causes regressions (bnc#858233) The upstream 3.7.x also     reverted it in the end (commit c3793e0d94af2).

  - tcp: syncookies: reduce cookie lifetime to 128 seconds     (bnc#833968).

  - tcp: syncookies: reduce mss table to four values     (bnc#833968).

  - x86, cpu, amd: Add workaround for family 16h, erratum     793 (bnc#852967 CVE-2013-6885).
