CVE-2021-47515

CVE-2021-47515 affects Linux kernel segmentation with IPv6 SRH encapsulation. When an IPv4 packet is received, the kernel assigns the receiving interface index to IPCB(iif). If that packet is later encapsulated in an outer IPv6+SRH header, seg6_do_srh_encap clears the IPv6 socket state (IP6CB) an...

Linux Kernel Security Vulnerabilities

Linux kernel is the kernel used by Linux, the open source operating system of the Linux Foundation in the United States. A security vulnerability exists in the Linux kernel that originates in the iif in the IPv6 socket control block of the seg6 module...

SUSE CVE-2023-52846

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hsr: Prevent use after free in prpcreatetaggedframe The prpfillrct function can fail. In that situation, it frees the skb and returns NULL. Meanwhile on the success path, it returns the original skb. So it's straight forward to f...

kernel: gro: fix ownership transfer

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Generic Receive Offload GRO feature, where packets processed with a fragment list are not properly orphaned due to incorrect handling of socket references. This vulnerability can cause system instability or kernel bugs. The issue has been fixed by making sur...

SUSE CVE-2021-47248

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: udp: fix race between close and udpabort Kaustubh reported and diagnosed a panic in udpliblookup. The root cause is udpabort racing with close. Both racing functions acquire the socket lock, but udpv6destroysock release it before...

SUSE CVE-2021-47294

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netrom: Decrease sock refcount when sock timers expire Commit 63346650c1a9 "netrom: switch to sock timer API" switched to use sock timer API. It replaces modtimer by skresettimer, and deltimer by skstoptimer. Function skresettime...

SUSE CVE-2021-47301

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: igb: Fix use-after-free error during reset Cleans the next descriptor to watch nexttowatch when cleaning the TX ring. Failure to do so can cause invalid memory accesses. If igbpoll runs while the controller is reset this can lead...

SUSE CVE-2021-47302

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: igc: Fix use-after-free error during reset Cleans the next descriptor to watch nexttowatch when cleaning the TX ring. Failure to do so can cause invalid memory accesses. If igcpoll runs while the controller is being reset this ca...

SUSE CVE-2023-52701

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: use a bounce buffer for copying skb-mark syzbot found arm64 builds would crash in sockrecvmark when CONFIGHARDENEDUSERCOPY=y x86 and powerpc are not detecting the issue because they define useraccessbegin. This will be handl...

SUSE-SU-2024:1757-1 Security update for the Linux Kernel (Live Patch 5 for SLE 15 SP5)

This update for the Linux Kernel 5.14.21-1505005528 fixes several issues. The following security issues were fixed: - CVE-2023-6931: Fixed a heap out-of-bounds write vulnerability in perfreadgroup bsc1216644. - CVE-2024-26610: Fixed memory corruption in wifi/iwlwifi bsc1221302. - CVE-2022-48651:...

kernel: x86/platform/uv: Use alternate source for socket to node data

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: x86/platform/uv: Use alternate source for socket to node data The UV code attempts to build a set of tables to allow it to do bidirectional socketnode lookups. But when nrcpus is set to a smaller number than actually present, the...

kernel: mptcp: fix UaF in listener shutdown

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Multipath TCP MPTCP subsystem. An improper cleanup sequence during listener socket shutdown can lead to a use-after-free condition where the kernel accesses socket memory after it has already been released. A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability t...

kernel: bluetooth: bt_sock_ioctl race condition leads to use-after-free in bt_sock_recvmsg

A flaw was found in the Bluetooth subsystem of the Linux kernel. A race condition between the btsockrecvmsg and btsockioctl functions could lead to a use-after-free on a socket buffer "skb". This flaw allows a local user to cause a denial of service condition or potential code execution...

kernel: ip6_vti: fix slab-use-after-free in decode_session6

A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the IPv6 VTI Virtual Tunnel Interface implementation in the Linux kernel. When an IPv6 VTI device uses the SFB Stochastic Fair Blue qdisc, the control block cb field of an skb can be modified during packet enqueuing. The decodesession6 function then rea...

kernel: ipv4: NULL pointer dereference in ipv4_send_dest_unreach()

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel ipv4 stack. The socket buffer skb was assumed to be associated with a device before calling ipoptionscompile, which is not always the case if the skb is re-routed by ipvs. This issue may allow a local user with CAPNETADMIN privileges t...
