MGASA-2021-0151 Updated kernel packages fix security issues

This kernel update is based on upstream 5.10.25 and fixes at least the following security issues: Unprivileged BPF programs running on affected systems can bypass the protection and execute speculatively out-of-bounds loads from any location within the kernel memory. This can be abused to extract...

MGASA-2021-0152 Updated kernel-linus packages fix security issues

This kernel-linus update is based on upstream 5.10.25 and fixes at least the following security issues: A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel's GPU Nouveau driver functionality in versions prior to 5.12-rc1 in the way the user calls ioctl DRMIOCTLNOUVEAUCHANNELALLOC. This...

DEBIAN-CVE-2020-27171

An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.11.8. kernel/bpf/verifier.c has an off-by-one error with a resultant integer underflow affecting out-of-bounds speculation on pointer arithmetic, leading to side-channel attacks that defeat Spectre mitigations and obtain sensitive information...

AZL-6525 CVE-2020-27170 affecting package kernel for versions less than 5.10.78.1-1

An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.11.8. kernel/bpf/verifier.c performs undesirable out-of-bounds speculation on pointer arithmetic, leading to side-channel attacks that defeat Spectre mitigations and obtain sensitive information from kernel memory, aka CID-f232326f6966. This...

Privilege Escalation

linux is vulnerable to privilege escalation. The vulnerability exists if kernel compiled with config params CONFIGBPFSYSCALL=y , CONFIGBPF=y , CONFIGCGROUPS=y , CONFIGCGROUPBPF=y, and CONFIGHARDENEDUSERCOPY not set, and BPF hook to getsockopt is registered. During the execution of BPF, the local...
