USN-6726-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

Pratyush Yadav discovered that the Xen network backend implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle zero length data request, leading to a null pointer dereference vulnerability. An attacker in a guest VM could possibly use this to cause a denial of service host domain crash...

Escape Sequence Injection

util-linux is vulnerable to Escape Sequence Injection. The vulnerability is due to escape sequences being allowed to be sent to other users' terminals through argv, especially when util-linux is often installed with setgid tty permissions, potentially leading to account takeover scenarios...

MGASA-2024-0112 Updated util-linux packages fix security vulnerability

wall in util-linux through 2.40, often installed with setgid tty permissions, allows escape sequences to be sent to other users' terminals through argv. Specifically, escape sequences received from stdin are blocked, but escape sequences received from argv are not blocked. There may be plausible...

OESA-2024-1352 util-linux security update

The util-linux package contains a random collection of files that implements some low-level basic linux utilities. Security Fixes: wall in util-linux through 2.40, often installed with setgid tty permissions, allows escape sequences to be sent to other users' terminals through argv. Specifically,...

kernel: GSM multiplexing race condition leads to privilege escalation

A race condition was found in the GSM 0710 tty multiplexor in the Linux kernel. This issue occurs when two threads execute the GSMIOCSETCONF ioctl on the same tty file descriptor with the gsm line discipline enabled, and can lead to a use-after-free problem on a struct gsmdlci while restarting th...

wall in util-linux through 2.40 often installed with setgid tty permissions allows escape sequences to be sent to other users' terminals through argv. (Specifically escape sequences received from stdin are blocked but escape sequences received from argv are not blocked.) There may be plausible scenarios where this leads to account takeover.
