USN-4094-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

It was discovered that the alarmtimer implementation in the Linux kernel contained an integer overflow vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. CVE-2018-13053 Wen Xu discovered that the XFS filesystem implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly track...

kernel: NULL pointer dereference in lookup_slow function

An issue was discovered in the XFS filesystem in fs/xfs/xfsicache.c in the Linux kernel. There is a NULL pointer dereference leading to a system panic in lookupslow on a NULL inode-iops pointer when doing pathwalks on a corrupted xfs image. This occurs because of a lack of proper validation that...

kernel: NULL pointer dereference in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_inode_buf.c

An issue was discovered in the XFS filesystem in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfsinodebuf.c in the Linux kernel. A denial of service due to the NULL pointer dereference can occur for a corrupted xfs image upon encountering an inode that is in extent format, but has more extents than fit in the inode fork...

Denial Of Service (DoS)

Linux kernel is vulnerable to denial of serviceDoS attacks. The xfsdinodeverify function in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfsinodebuf.c in the Linux kernel could cause a NULL pointer dereference in xfsilockattrmapshared function. An attacker could exploit this by mounting a crafted xfs filesystem image to cause ...
