Affected Products:

openSUSE Leap 42.2

______________________________________________________________________________

 

An update that solves 12 vulnerabilities and has 75 fixes

is now available.

 

Description:

 

 

 

The openSUSE Leap 42.2 kernel was updated to 4.4.36 to receive various

security and bugfixes.

 

The following security bugs were fixed:

 

- CVE-2015-1350: The VFS subsystem in the Linux kernel 3.x provides an

incomplete set of requirements for setattr operations that

underspecifies removing extended privilege attributes, which allowed

local users to cause a denial of service (capability stripping) via a

failed invocation of a system call, as demonstrated by using chown to

remove a capability from the ping or Wireshark dumpcap program

(bnc#914939).

- CVE-2015-8964: The tty_set_termios_ldisc function in

drivers/tty/tty_ldisc.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to

obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by reading a tty data

structure (bnc#1010507).

- CVE-2016-7042: The proc_keys_show function in security/keys/proc.c in

the Linux kernel through 4.8.2, when the GNU Compiler Collection (gcc)

stack protector is enabled, uses an incorrect buffer size for certain

timeout data, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service

(stack memory corruption and panic) by reading the /proc/keys file

(bnc#1004517).

- CVE-2016-7913: The xc2028_set_config function in

drivers/media/tuners/tuner-xc2028.c in the Linux kernel allowed local

users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free)

via vectors involving omission of the firmware name from a certain data

structure (bnc#1010478).

- CVE-2016-7917: The nfnetlink_rcv_batch function in

net/netfilter/nfnetlink.c in the Linux kernel did not check whether a

batch message's length field is large enough, which allowed local users

to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory or cause a denial of

service (infinite loop or out-of-bounds read) by leveraging the

CAP_NET_ADMIN capability (bnc#1010444).

- CVE-2016-8632: The tipc_msg_build function in net/tipc/msg.c in the

Linux kernel did not validate the relationship between the minimum

fragment length and the maximum packet size, which allowed local users

to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer

overflow) by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability (bnc#1008831).

- CVE-2016-8655: A race condition in the af_packet packet_set_ring

function could be used by local attackers to crash the kernel or gain

privileges (bsc#1012754).

- CVE-2016-8666: The IP stack in the Linux kernel allowed remote attackers

to cause a denial of service (stack consumption and panic) or possibly

have unspecified other impact by triggering use of the GRO path for

packets with tunnel stacking, as demonstrated by interleaved IPv4

headers and GRE headers, a related issue to CVE-2016-7039 (bnc#1001486).

- CVE-2016-9083: drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci.c in the Linux kernel allowed

local users to bypass integer overflow checks, and cause a denial of

service (memory corruption) or have unspecified other impact, by

leveraging access to a vfio PCI device file for a VFIO_DEVICE_SET_IRQS

ioctl call, aka a "state machine confusion bug (bnc#1007197).

- CVE-2016-9084: drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_intrs.c in the Linux kernel

misuses the kzalloc function, which allowed local users to cause a

denial of service (integer overflow) or have unspecified other impact by

leveraging access to a vfio PCI device file (bnc#1007197).

- CVE-2016-9555: The sctp_sf_ootb function in net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c in

the Linux kernel lacks chunk-length checking for the first chunk, which

allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds

slab access) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted SCTP

data (bnc#1011685).

- CVE-2016-9794: A use-after-free in alsa pcm could lead to crashes or

allowed local users to potentially gain privileges (bsc#1013533).

kernel because openSUSE does not enable kernel module signature check

(bsc#843661). Without kernel module signature check, the root account is

allowed to load arbitrary kernel module to kernel space. Then lock

functions by securelevel is pointless.
