The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2015:1081 advisory.

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

    * It was found that the Linux kernel's implementation of vectored pipe read     and write functionality did not take into account the I/O vectors that were     already processed when retrying after a failed atomic access operation,     potentially resulting in memory corruption due to an I/O vector array     overrun. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to crash the system     or, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2015-1805,     Important)

    * A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's Intel     AES-NI instructions optimized version of the RFC4106 GCM mode decryption     functionality handled fragmented packets. A remote attacker could use this     flaw to crash, or potentially escalate their privileges on, a system over a     connection with an active AES-GCM mode IPSec security association.
    (CVE-2015-3331, Important)

    * An information leak flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel changed     certain segment registers and thread-local storage (TLS) during a context     switch. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to leak the user     space TLS base address of an arbitrary process. (CVE-2014-9419, Low)

    * It was found that the Linux kernel's ISO file system implementation did     not correctly limit the traversal of Rock Ridge extension Continuation     Entries (CE). An attacker with physical access to the system could use this     flaw to trigger an infinite loop in the kernel, resulting in a denial of     service. (CVE-2014-9420, Low)

    * An information leak flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's Virtual     Dynamic Shared Object (vDSO) implementation performed address     randomization. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to leak     kernel memory addresses to user-space. (CVE-2014-9585, Low)

    Red Hat would like to thank Carl Henrik Lunde for reporting     CVE-2014-9420. The security impact of the CVE-2015-1805 issue was     discovered by Red Hat.

    This update also fixes several bugs and adds various enhancements.
    Documentation for these changes is available from the Technical Notes     document linked to in the References section.

    All kernel users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which     contain backported patches to correct these issues and add these     enhancements. The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

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

Jan Beulich discovered the Xen virtual machine subsystem of the Linux kernel did not properly restrict access to PCI command registers. A local guest user could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (host crash). (CVE-2015-2150)

A privilege escalation was discovered in the fork syscall via the int80 entry on 64 bit kernels with 32 bit emulation support. An unprivileged local attacker could exploit this flaw to increase their privileges on the system. (CVE-2015-2830)

A memory corruption issue was discovered in AES decryption when using the Intel AES-NI accelerated code path. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash) or potentially escalate privileges on Intel base machines with AEC-GCM mode IPSec security association. (CVE-2015-3331)

Wen Xu discovered a use-after-free flaw in the Linux kernel's ipv4 ping support. A local user could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash) or gain administrative privileges on the system. (CVE-2015-3636)

Carl H Lunde discovered missing sanity checks in the the Linux kernel's UDF file system(CONFIG_UDF_FS). A local attack could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash) by using a corrupted filesystem image. (CVE-2015-4167).

The following security bugs were fixed :

  - CVE-2015-5707: An integer overflow in the SCSI generic     driver could be potentially used by local attackers to     crash the kernel or execute code.

  - CVE-2015-2830: arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S in the Linux     kernel did not prevent the TS_COMPAT flag from reaching     a user-mode task, which might have allowed local users     to bypass the seccomp or audit protection mechanism via     a crafted application that uses the (1) fork or (2)     close system call, as demonstrated by an attack against     seccomp before 3.16 (bnc#926240).

  - CVE-2015-0777: drivers/xen/usbback/usbback.c in the     Linux kernel allowed guest OS users to obtain sensitive     information from uninitialized locations in host OS     kernel memory via unspecified vectors (bnc#917830).

  - CVE-2015-2150: Xen and the Linux kernel did not properly     restrict access to PCI command registers, which might     have allowed local guest users to cause a denial of     service (non-maskable interrupt and host crash) by     disabling the (1) memory or (2) I/O decoding for a PCI     Express device and then accessing the device, which     triggers an Unsupported Request (UR) response     (bnc#919463).

  - CVE-2015-5364: A remote denial of service (hang) via UDP     flood with incorrect package checksums was fixed.
    (bsc#936831).

  - CVE-2015-5366: A remote denial of service (unexpected     error returns) via UDP flood with incorrect package     checksums was fixed. (bsc#936831).

  - CVE-2015-1420: CVE-2015-1420: Race condition in the     handle_to_path function in fs/fhandle.c in the Linux     kernel allowed local users to bypass intended size     restrictions and trigger read operations on additional     memory locations by changing the handle_bytes value of a     file handle during the execution of this function     (bnc#915517).

  - CVE-2015-4700: A local user could have created a bad     instruction in the JIT processed BPF code, leading to a     kernel crash (bnc#935705).

  - CVE-2015-1805: The (1) pipe_read and (2) pipe_write     implementations in fs/pipe.c in the Linux kernel did not     properly consider the side effects of failed
    __copy_to_user_inatomic and __copy_from_user_inatomic     calls, which allowed local users to cause a denial of     service (system crash) or possibly gain privileges via a     crafted application, aka an 'I/O vector array overrun'     (bnc#933429).

  - CVE-2015-3331: The __driver_rfc4106_decrypt function in     arch/x86/crypto/aesni-intel_glue.c in the Linux kernel     did not properly determine the memory locations used for     encrypted data, which allowed context-dependent     attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow     and system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code by     triggering a crypto API call, as demonstrated by use of     a libkcapi test program with an AF_ALG(aead) socket     (bnc#927257).

  - CVE-2015-2922: The ndisc_router_discovery function in     net/ipv6/ndisc.c in the Neighbor Discovery (ND) protocol     implementation in the IPv6 stack in the Linux kernel     allowed remote attackers to reconfigure a hop-limit     setting via a small hop_limit value in a Router     Advertisement (RA) message (bnc#922583).

  - CVE-2015-2041: net/llc/sysctl_net_llc.c in the Linux     kernel used an incorrect data type in a sysctl table,     which allowed local users to obtain potentially     sensitive information from kernel memory or possibly     have unspecified other impact by accessing a sysctl     entry (bnc#919007).

  - CVE-2015-3636: The ping_unhash function in     net/ipv4/ping.c in the Linux kernel did not initialize a     certain list data structure during an unhash operation,     which allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a     denial of service (use-after-free and system crash) by     leveraging the ability to make a SOCK_DGRAM socket     system call for the IPPROTO_ICMP or IPPROTO_ICMPV6     protocol, and then making a connect system call after a     disconnect (bnc#929525).

  - CVE-2014-8086: Race condition in the     ext4_file_write_iter function in fs/ext4/file.c in the     Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of     service (file unavailability) via a combination of a     write action and an F_SETFL fcntl operation for the     O_DIRECT flag (bnc#900881).

  - CVE-2014-8159: The InfiniBand (IB) implementation in the     Linux kernel did not properly restrict use of User Verbs     for registration of memory regions, which allowed local     users to access arbitrary physical memory locations, and     consequently cause a denial of service (system crash) or     gain privileges, by leveraging permissions on a uverbs     device under /dev/infiniband/ (bnc#914742).

  - CVE-2014-9683: Off-by-one error in the     ecryptfs_decode_from_filename function in     fs/ecryptfs/crypto.c in the eCryptfs subsystem in the     Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of     service (buffer overflow and system crash) or possibly     gain privileges via a crafted filename (bnc#918333).

  - CVE-2015-2042: net/rds/sysctl.c in the Linux kernel used     an incorrect data type in a sysctl table, which allowed     local users to obtain potentially sensitive information     from kernel memory or possibly have unspecified other     impact by accessing a sysctl entry (bnc#919018).

  - CVE-2015-1421: Use-after-free vulnerability in the     sctp_assoc_update function in net/sctp/associola.c in     the Linux kernel allowed remote attackers to cause a     denial of service (slab corruption and panic) or     possibly have unspecified other impact by triggering an     INIT collision that leads to improper handling of     shared-key data (bnc#915577).

The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE 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-2026-001805 advisory.

    The __driver_rfc4106_decrypt function in arch/x86/crypto/aesni-intel_glue.c in the Linux kernel before     3.19.3 does not properly determine the memory locations used for encrypted data, which allows context-     dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow and system crash) or possibly execute     arbitrary code by triggering a crypto API call, as demonstrated by use of a libkcapi test program with an     AF_ALG(aead) socket.

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.

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information leaks.

  - CVE-2014-8159     It was found that the Linux kernel's InfiniBand/RDMA     subsystem did not properly sanitize input parameters     while registering memory regions from user space via the     (u)verbs API. A local user with access to a     /dev/infiniband/uverbsX device could use this flaw to     crash the system or, potentially, escalate their     privileges on the system.

  - CVE-2014-9715     It was found that the netfilter connection tracking     subsystem used too small a type as an offset within each     connection's data structure, following a bug fix in     Linux 3.2.33 and 3.6. In some configurations, this would     lead to memory corruption and crashes (even without     malicious traffic). This could potentially also result     in violation of the netfilter policy or remote code     execution.

  This can be mitigated by disabling connection tracking   accounting:sysctl net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_acct=0

  - CVE-2015-2041     Sasha Levin discovered that the LLC subsystem exposed     some variables as sysctls with the wrong type. On a     64-bit kernel, this possibly allows privilege escalation     from a process with CAP_NET_ADMIN capability; it also     results in a trivial information leak.

  - CVE-2015-2042     Sasha Levin discovered that the RDS subsystem exposed     some variables as sysctls with the wrong type. On a     64-bit kernel, this results in a trivial information     leak.

  - CVE-2015-2150     Jan Beulich discovered that Xen guests are currently     permitted to modify all of the (writable) bits in the     PCI command register of devices passed through to them.
    This in particular allows them to disable memory and I/O     decoding on the device unless the device is an SR-IOV     virtual function, which can result in denial of service     to the host.

  - CVE-2015-2830     Andrew Lutomirski discovered that when a 64-bit task on     an amd64 kernel makes a fork(2) or clone(2) system call     using int $0x80, the 32-bit compatibility flag is set     (correctly) but is not cleared on return. As a result,     both seccomp and audit will misinterpret the following     system call by the task(s), possibly leading to a     violation of security policy.

  - CVE-2015-2922     Modio AB discovered that the IPv6 subsystem would     process a router advertisement that specifies no route     but only a hop limit, which would then be applied to the     interface that received it. This can result in loss of     IPv6 connectivity beyond the local network.

  This may be mitigated by disabling processing of IPv6 router   advertisements if they are not needed:sysctl   net.ipv6.conf.default.accept_ra=0sysctl   net.ipv6.conf.<interface>.accept_ra=0

  - CVE-2015-3331     Stephan Mueller discovered that the optimised     implementation of RFC4106 GCM for x86 processors that     support AESNI miscalculated buffer addresses in some     cases. If an IPsec tunnel is configured to use this mode     (also known as AES-GCM-ESP) this can lead to memory     corruption and crashes (even without malicious traffic).
    This could potentially also result in remote code     execution.

  - CVE-2015-3332     Ben Hutchings discovered that the TCP Fast Open feature     regressed in Linux 3.16.7-ckt9, resulting in a kernel     BUG when it is used. This can be used as a local denial     of service.

  - CVE-2015-3339     It was found that the execve(2) system call can race     with inode attribute changes made by chown(2). Although     chown(2) clears the setuid/setgid bits of a file if it     changes the respective owner ID, this race condition     could result in execve(2) setting effective uid/gid to     the new owner ID, a privilege escalation.

- A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way the Linux     kernel's Intel AES-NI instructions optimized version of     the RFC4106 GCM mode decryption functionality handled     fragmented packets. A remote attacker could use this     flaw to crash, or potentially escalate their privileges     on, a system over a connection with an active AEC-GCM     mode IPSec security association. (CVE-2015-3331,     Important)

This update also fixes the following bugs :

  - Previously, the kernel audit subsystem did not correctly     track file path names which could lead to empty, or     '(null)' path names in the PATH audit records. This     update fixes the bug by correctly tracking file path     names and displaying the names in the audit PATH     records.

  - Due to a change in the internal representation of field     types, AUDIT_LOGINUID set to -1 (4294967295) by the     audit API was asymmetrically converted to an     AUDIT_LOGINUID_SET field with a value of 0, unrecognized     by an older audit API. To fix this bug, the kernel takes     note about the way the rule has been formulated and     reports the rule in the originally given form. As a     result, older versions of audit provide a report as     expected, in the AUDIT_LOGINUID field type form, whereas     the newer versions can migrate to the new     AUDIT_LOGINUID_SET filed type.

  - The GFS2 file system 'Splice Read' operation, which is     used for the sendfile() function, was not properly     allocating a required multi-block reservation structure     in memory. Consequently, when the GFS2 block allocator     was called to assign blocks of data, it attempted to     dereference the structure, which resulted in a kernel     panic. With this update, 'Splice read' operation     properly allocates the necessary reservation structure     in memory prior to calling the block allocator, and     sendfile() thus works properly for GFS2.

  - Moving an Open vSwitch (OVS) internal vport to a     different net name space and subsequently deleting that     name space led to a kernel panic. This bug has been     fixed by removing the OVS internal vport at net name     space deletion.

  - Previously, the kernel audit subsystem was not correctly     handling file and directory moves, leading to audit     records that did not match the audit file watches. This     fix correctly handles moves such that the audit file     watches work correctly.

  - Due to a regression, the crypto adapter could not be set     online. A patch has been provided that fixes the device     registration process so that the device can be used also     before the registration process is completed, thus     fixing this bug.

  - Due to incorrect calculation for entropy during the     entropy addition, the amount of entropy in the     /dev/random file could be overestimated. The formula for     the entropy addition has been changed, thus fixing this     bug.

  - Previously, the ansi_cprng and drbg utilities did not     obey the call convention and returned the positive value     on success instead of the correct value of zero.
    Consequently, Internet Protocol Security (IPsec)     terminated unexpectedly when ansi_cprng or drbg were     used. With this update, ansi_cprng and drbg have been     changed to return zero on success, and IPsec now     functions correctly.

  - Due to a failure to clear the timestamp flag when     reusing a tx descriptor in the mlx4_en driver, programs     that did not request a hardware timestamp packet on     their sent data received it anyway, resulting in     unexpected behavior in certain applications. With this     update, when reusing the tx descriptor in the mlx4_en     driver in the aforementioned situation, the hardware     timestamp flag is cleared, and applications now behave     as expected.

The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect.

Alexandre Oliva reported a race condition flaw in the btrfs file system's handling of extended attributes (xattrs). A local attacker could exploit this flaw to bypass ACLs and potentially escalate privileges. (CVE-2014-9710)

A memory corruption issue was discovered in AES decryption when using the Intel AES-NI accelerated code path. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash) or potentially escalate privileges on Intel base machines with AEC-GCM mode IPSec security association. (CVE-2015-3331)

A flaw was discovered in the Linux kernel's IPv4 networking when using TCP fast open to initiate a connection. An unprivileged local user could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash).
(CVE-2015-3332).

  - CVE-2014-8159: The InfiniBand (IB) implementation did     not properly restrict use of User Verbs for registration     of memory regions, which allowed local users to access     arbitrary physical memory locations, and consequently     cause a denial of service (system crash) or gain     privileges, by leveraging permissions on a uverbs device     under /dev/infiniband/ (bsc#914742).

  - CVE-2015-1465: The IPv4 implementation in the Linux     kernel before 3.18.8 did not properly consider the     length of the Read-Copy Update (RCU) grace period for     redirecting lookups in the absence of caching, which     allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (memory consumption or system crash) via a flood of     packets (bsc#916225).

  - CVE-2015-2041: net/llc/sysctl_net_llc.c in the Linux     kernel before 3.19 used an incorrect data type in a     sysctl table, which allowed local users to obtain     potentially sensitive information from kernel memory or     possibly have unspecified other impact by accessing a     sysctl entry (bsc#919007).
