The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 4.14.343-259.562. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2024-2549 advisory.
2024-06-06: CVE-2023-52486 was added to this advisory.
2024-06-06: CVE-2023-52464 was added to this advisory.
2024-06-06: CVE-2023-52698 was added to this advisory.
2024-06-06: CVE-2024-0607 was added to this advisory.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
EDAC/thunderx: Fix possible out-of-bounds string access
Enabling -Wstringop-overflow globally exposes a warning for a common bugin the usage of strncat():
drivers/edac/thunderx_edac.c: In function 'thunderx_ocx_com_threaded_isr':drivers/edac/thunderx_edac.c:1136:17: error: 'strncat' specified bound 1024 equals destination size [-Werror=stringop-overflow=]1136 | strncat(msg, other, OCX_MESSAGE_SIZE);| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~...1145 | strncat(msg, other, OCX_MESSAGE_SIZE);...1150 | strncat(msg, other, OCX_MESSAGE_SIZE);
...
Apparently the author of this driver expected strncat() to behave theway that strlcat() does, which uses the size of the destination bufferas its third argument rather than the length of the source buffer.
Theresult is that there is no check on the size of the allocated buffer.
Change it to strlcat().
[ bp: Trim compiler output, fixup commit message. ] (CVE-2023-52464)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm: Don't unref the same fb many times by mistake due to deadlock handling (CVE-2023-52486)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
calipso: fix memory leak in netlbl_calipso_add_pass() (CVE-2023-52698)
netfilter: nf_tables: fix pointer math issue in nft_byteorder_eval() (CVE-2024-0607)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
