Description

linux-aws, linux-azure, linux-bluefield, linux-gcp, linux-gke, linux-gkeop, linux-ibm, linux-kvm, linux-oracle, linux-raspi vulnerabilities

It was discovered that the TUN/TAP driver in the Linux kernel did not

properly initialize socket data. A local attacker could use this to cause a

denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2023-1076)

It was discovered that the Real-Time Scheduling Class implementation in the

Linux kernel contained a type confusion vulnerability in some situations. A

local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash).

(CVE-2023-1077)

It was discovered that the ASUS HID driver in the Linux kernel did not

properly handle device removal, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability.

A local attacker with physical access could plug in a specially crafted USB

device to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2023-1079)

It was discovered that the Xircom PCMCIA network device driver in the Linux

kernel did not properly handle device removal events. A physically

proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system

crash). (CVE-2023-1670)

It was discovered that a race condition existed in the Xen transport layer

implementation for the 9P file system protocol in the Linux kernel, leading

to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause

a denial of service (guest crash) or expose sensitive information (guest

kernel memory). (CVE-2023-1859)

Jose Oliveira and Rodrigo Branco discovered that the Spectre Variant 2

mitigations with prctl syscall were insufficient in some situations. A

local attacker could possibly use this to expose sensitive information.

(CVE-2023-1998)

It was discovered that the BigBen Interactive Kids' gamepad driver in the

Linux kernel did not properly handle device removal, leading to a use-

after-free vulnerability. A local attacker with physical access could plug

in a specially crafted USB device to cause a denial of service (system

crash). (CVE-2023-25012)

It was discovered that a use-after-free vulnerability existed in the HFS+

file system implementation in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could

possibly use this to cause a denial of service (system crash).

(CVE-2023-2985)
