Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.15

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fs/ntfs3: validate BOOT sectorsperclusters When the NTFS BOOT sectorsperclusters field is greater than 0x80, it represents a shift value. Ensure that the shift value is not too large before using it the maximum cluster size for...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 5.10, Linux 5.15

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rtc: cmos: Fix event handler registration ordering issue Since acpiinstallfixedeventhandler automatically enables the event handling mechanism upon success, it is incorrect to call it before the handler routine is ready to handle...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in edk2

In Ubuntu’s EDK2, a insecure default setting was left enabled, allowing UEFI Shell to be used. This enables an attacker with access to the operating system to bypass Secure Boot...

Astra Linux – Vulnerabilities in Linux 5.10, Linux 5.15

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: x86/i8259: The legacy PIC interrupts have been marked with the IRQLEVEL flag. Baoquan reported that after triggering a crash, the subsequent boot process fails about half of the time. This occurs due to a NULL pointer dereference...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in edk2

The BootPerformanceTable pointer is retrieved from an NVRAM variable within PEI. It is recommended that the PcdFirmwarePerformanceDataTableS3Support be set to FALSE...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 5.15, Linux 6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: remoteproc: mediatek: Ensure that the IPI buffer fits within the L2TCM. The location of the IPI buffer is determined from the firmware that we load into the System Companion Processor. It’s not guaranteed that both the SRAM size...

Astra Linux – Vulnerabilities in Linux, Linux-5.10, Linux-5.15, Linux-6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mips: bmips: BCM6358 – Ensure that CBR is set correctly. It was discovered that some devices have the CBR address set to 0, causing kernel panic when archsyncdmaforcpuall is called. This issue occurs when the system is booted fro...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in grub2

A flaw was discovered in grub2 in versions prior to 2.06. The rmmod implementation allows the unloading of a module that serves as a dependency without checking whether any other dependent modules are still loaded, leading to a “use-after-free” scenario. This could allow arbitrary code to be...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in grub2

A flaw was discovered in grub2 in versions prior to 2.06. During USB device initialization, descriptors are read without sufficient bounds checking, assuming that the USB device provides valid values. If exploited properly, an attacker could cause memory corruption, leading to arbitrary code...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in grub2

A flaw was discovered in grub2 in versions prior to 2.06, where it incorrectly enabled the use of the ACPI command when Secure Boot was enabled. This flaw allows an attacker with privileged access to create a Secondary System Description Table SSDT containing code that can overwrite the Linux...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: “Reapply ‘drm/qxl: simplify qxlfencewait’” This change reverts the commit 07ed11afb68d94eadd4ffc082b97c2331307c5ea. Stephen Rostedt reported: “I tried running my tests on my virtual machines, but the tests failed upon boot-up...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: powerpc/pseries/iommu: The LPAR panics during bootup due to a frozen PE. During the LPAR bootup, the partition firmware provides the ibm,dma-window property for the PE. This property is provided on the PCI bus to which the PE is...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 5.10, Linux 6.1, Linux, Linux 5.15

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iscsistart: A UBSAN out-of-bounds warning has been fixed in ibftattrshownic. When performing an iSCSI boot using IPv6, iscsistart still reads the /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernetX/subnet-mask entry. Since the IPv6 prefix length is 64,...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in grub2

A flaw was discovered in the HFS filesystem. When reading the name of an HFS volume during the grubfsmount function, the HFS filesystem driver uses the user-provided volume name as input without properly verifying the length of that name. This issue may lead to a heap-based out-of-bounds write...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerabilities have been resolved: x86/kvm: The teardown of PV features also occurs during boot-up. Various PV features Async PF, PV EOI, steal time work through memory shared with the hypervisor. When we resume from hibernation, we must properly teardown all...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.10, Linux, Linux 5.15

In the Linux kernel, if the IMA appraisal method is used with the “imaappraiselog” boot parameter, lockdown can be circumvented using kexec on any machine when Secure Boot is disabled or unavailable. IMA prevents the “imaappraiselog” parameter from being set during boot, but this does not cover...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in grub2

The GRUB2’s shimlock verifier allows non-kernel files to be loaded on shim-powered secure boot systems. Allowing such files to be loaded may lead to unverified code and modules being loaded in GRUB2, thereby breaking the secure boot trust-chain...
