Amazon Linux 2 : kernel (ALAS-2021-1712)

The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 4.14.248-189.473. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2-2021-1712 advisory. A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A race condition was discovered in the ext4 subsystem. The highest threat from this...

Medium: kernel

Issue Overview: A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A race condition was discovered in the ext4 subsystem. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability. CVE-2021-40490 Affected Packages: kernel Note: This advisory is applicab...

The vulnerability of the hci_sock_bound_ioctl() function in the HCI subsystem of the Linux operating system allows a attacker to execute arbitrary code in the kernel context.

The vulnerability of the hcisockboundioctl function in the HCI subsystem of the Linux operating system arises from the simultaneous execution using a shared resource with incorrect synchronization of the “race condition”. Exploiting this vulnerability allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code ...

The vulnerability of the syntactic analyzer in the mac80211 subsystem of the Linux operating system’s kernel allows a perpetrator to trigger a service failure due to pointer arithmetic errors.

The vulnerability of the syntactic analyzer in the mac80211 subsystem of the Linux operating system is related to pointer arithmetic errors. Exploiting this vulnerability allows an attacker to cause a service failure by injecting a 802.11a frame...

MGASA-2021-0460 Updated kernel-linus packages fix security vulnerabilities

This kernel-linus update is based on upstream 5.10.70 and fixes at least the following security issues: Use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel exploitable by a local attacker due to reuse of a DCCP socket with an attached dccpshctxccid object as a listener after being released...

USN-5094-2: Linux kernel (Raspberry Pi) vulnerabilities

It was discovered that the KVM hypervisor implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly perform reference counting in some situations, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. An attacker who could start and control a VM could possibly use this to expose sensitive information or execute...

USN-5091-2: Linux kernel (Raspberry Pi) vulnerabilities

Ofek Kirzner, Adam Morrison, Benedict Schlueter, and Piotr Krysiuk discovered that the BPF verifier in the Linux kernel missed possible mispredicted branches due to type confusion, allowing a side-channel attack. An attacker could use this to expose sensitive information. CVE-2021-33624 It was...

The vulnerability of the Linux operating system’s Bluetooth subsystem, which allows a hacker to trigger an emergency shutdown of the system

The vulnerability of the Linux operating system’s Bluetooth subsystem relates to the use of memory after it is freed. Exploiting this vulnerability can allow an attacker to cause the system to crash...
