kernel: netfilter: potential slab-out-of-bound access due to integer underflow

An array indexing vulnerability was found in the netfilter subsystem of the Linux kernel. A missing macro could lead to a miscalculation of the h-nets array offset, providing attackers with the primitive to arbitrarily increment/decrement a memory buffer out-of-bound. This issue may allow a local...

kernel: Slab-out-of-bound read in compare_netdev_and_ip

A vulnerability was found in comparenetdevandip in drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c in RDMA in the Linux kernel. An improper cleanup results in an out-of-boundary read. This flaw allows a local user to crash or escalate privileges on the system...

kernel: use-after-free in smb2_is_status_io_timeout()

A use-after-free flaw was found in smb2isstatusiotimeout in CIFS in the Linux Kernel. After CIFS transfers response data to a system call, there are still local variable points to the memory region, and if the system call frees it faster than CIFS uses it, CIFS will access a free memory region,...

FreeType: Segmentation violation via FNT_Size_Request

A segmentation fault was found in the FreeType library. This flaw allows an attacker to attempt access to a memory location in a way that could cause an application to halt or crash, leading to a denial of service...

Freetype: Segmentation violation via FT_Request_Size

A segmentation fault was found in FreeType’s FTRequestSize function in the ftobjs.c file. This flaw allows an attacker to access a memory location in a way that could cause an application to halt or crash, leading to a denial of service...

kernel: swiotlb information leak with DMA_FROM_DEVICE

A memory leak flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s DMA subsystem, in the way a user calls DMAFROMDEVICE. This flaw allows a local user to read random memory from the kernel space...

kernel: tun: bugs for oversize packet when napi frags enabled in tun_napi_alloc_frags

An out-of-bounds memory access flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s TUN/TAP device driver functionality in how a user generates a malicious too big networking packet when napi frags is enabled. This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system...

kernel: out-of-bounds write in qfq_change_class function

An out-of-bounds memory access flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s traffic control QoS subsystem in how a user triggers the qfqchangeclass function with an incorrect MTU value of the network device used as lmax. This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on t...

QEMU: hcd-ehci: DMA reentrancy issue leads to use-after-free

A DMA reentrancy issue was found in the USB EHCI controller emulation of QEMU. EHCI does not verify if the Buffer Pointer overlaps with its MMIO region when it transfers the USB packets. Crafted content may be written to the controller's registers and trigger undesirable actions such as reset whi...

The vulnerability of the `tls_sw_sendmsg_splice` function (/net/tls/tls_sw.c) in the Linux operating system allows a hacker to exploit their privileges.

The vulnerability of the tlsswsendmsgsplice function /net/tls/tlssw.c in the Linux operating system is related to the execution of operations outside of the buffer boundaries in memory. Exploiting this vulnerability can allow an attacker to gain increased privileges...

RHEL 9 : kpatch-patch (RHSA-2024:0340)
