libvirt: swtpm privilege escalation via symlink following

A flaw was found in libvirt. A local attacker, specifically a process running as the confined swtpm user, could exploit a symlink-following vulnerability in the virFileChownFiles function. By planting a symbolic link within the swtpm state directory, the attacker could trick the root-level libvir...

libvirt: Integer overflow in NodeGetFreePages RPC handler leading to heap buffer overflow

A flaw was found in libvirt. An unprivileged local user could exploit an integer overflow vulnerability in the NodeGetFreePages RPC handler. This flaw allows crafted values to bypass a size check, leading to an undersized memory buffer. Subsequently, real NUMA node data can overwrite this buffer...

qemu-kvm: VNC WebSocket handshake use-after-free

A flaw was found in QEMU. If the QIOChannelWebsock object is freed while it is waiting to complete a handshake, a GSource is leaked. This can lead to the callback firing later on and triggering a use-after-free in the use of the channel. This can be abused by a malicious client with network acces...

A flaw was found in libvirt. An unprivileged local user could exploit an integer overflow vulnerability in the NodeGetFreePages RPC handler. This flaw allows crafted values to bypass a size check, leading to an undersized memory buffer. Subsequently, real NUMA node data can overwrite this buffer...

libvirt: Integer overflow in NodeGetFreePages RPC handler leading to heap buffer overflow

A flaw was found in libvirt. An unprivileged local user could exploit an integer overflow vulnerability in the NodeGetFreePages RPC handler.

kernel: netfilter: xt_policy: fix strict mode inbound policy matching

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's netfilter component, which is responsible for network packet filtering. This vulnerability, located in the xtpolicy module, involves an error in how strict inbound network policies are matched. This could allow an attacker to bypass established security rule...

kernel: net: guard timestamp cmsgs to real error queue skbs

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's networking component. This vulnerability allows a remote attacker to potentially access sensitive information or cause system instability. By sending specially crafted network packets, an attacker can exploit an issue in how the kernel handles timestamping f...

kernel: net: qrtr: fix 32-bit integer overflow in qrtr_endpoint_post()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's qrtr network component. On 32-bit systems, a 32-bit integer overflow can occur in the qrtrendpointpost function when processing an incoming packet. This overflow can bypass a size validation check, leading to an out-of-bounds write and causing the kernel to...

kernel: xfrm: policy: fix use-after-free on inexact bin in xfrm_policy_bysel_ctx()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A race condition exists in the xfrm policy handling, specifically within the xfrmpolicybyselctx function. This flaw allows for a use-after-free vulnerability, where memory is accessed after it has been released. This can lead to system instability or a denial...

kernel: ip6: vti: Use ip6_tnl.net in vti6_changelink()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IPv6 Virtual Tunnel Interface vti6 component. An unprivileged local user, particularly within a user namespace, could exploit a vulnerability related to incorrect network namespace handling during the movement of a vti6 tunnel. This issue can lead to a kerne...

kernel: xfrm: input: hold netns during deferred transport reinjection

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's xfrm input component. The transport-mode reinjection process, which handles network packet re-injection, stores a network namespace pointer that must remain valid until a deferred callback completes. However, a missing reference count for the network namespa...

kernel: ip6: vti: Use ip6_tnl.net in vti6_siocdevprivate()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IPv6 Virtual Tunnel Interface VTI module. When a VTI tunnel device is moved to a different network environment, an unprivileged user in a separate user space can manipulate tunnel parameters. This manipulation could allow the user to intercept or redirect...

kernel: ipv4: free net->ipv4.sysctl_local_reserved_ports after unregister_net_sysctl_table()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IPv4 networking component. The ipv4sysctlexitnet function prematurely frees the net-ipv4.sysctllocalreservedports memory. This can lead to a use-after-free vulnerability, where other threads might attempt to access deallocated memory. Such an issue can resul...

kernel: xfrm: fix stale skb->prev after async crypto steals a GSO segment

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's xfrm subsystem. This vulnerability arises when asynchronous cryptographic operations incorrectly handle network packet segments, leaving a pointer to memory that has already been released. An attacker could potentially exploit this use-after-free condition t...

kernel: ipvlan: Make the addrs_lock be per port

A race condition vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's ipvlan driver. The per-device addrslock was incorrectly used instead of a per-port lock, and some code paths ipvlanopen/ipvlanclose failed to acquire the lock entirely. For IPv6 address changes that don't require RTNL lock, concurrent...

kernel: ALSA: timer: Fix UAF at snd_timer_user_params()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Advanced Linux Sound Architecture ALSA timer component. A race condition can occur during the release of a timer object, specifically when the SNDRVTIMERIOCTLPARAMS ioctl is called concurrently. This can lead to a use-after-free vulnerability, potentially...

kernel: ipv6: sit: reload inner IPv6 header after GSO offloads

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Simple Internet Transition SIT tunnel driver for IPv6. When processing network traffic with Generic Segmentation Offload GSO enabled, the driver may use a stale pointer to the inner IPv6 header after the socket buffer skb head has been reallocated. This can...

kernel: netfilter: conntrack_irc: fix possible out-of-bounds read

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's netfilter conntrackirc module. This vulnerability allows for a possible out-of-bounds read. When parsing network traffic, if a command string is matched but subsequent parsing fails, the system does not properly exit, leading to the flaw. This could...

kernel: ipv6: mcast: Fix use-after-free when processing MLD queries

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IPv6 multicast mcast component. When processing Multicast Listener Discovery MLD queries, a pointer to the multicast group address is not correctly reloaded after certain packet manipulations. This can lead to a use-after-free vulnerability, potentially...

kernel: xfrm: hold dev ref until after transport_finish NF_HOOK

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's xfrm IP eXtensible FRamework subsystem. This vulnerability involves a race condition where a network device's reference is released too early during packet processing after asynchronous cryptography. This premature release can lead to the system attempting t...
