Synopsis

The remote SUSE host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed :

CVE-2021-3348: Fixed a use-after-free in nbd_add_socket that could be triggered by local attackers (with access to the nbd device) via an I/O request at a certain point during device setup (bnc#1181504).

CVE-2021-3347: A use-after-free was discovered in the PI futexes during fault handling, allowing local users to execute code in the kernel (bnc#1181349).

CVE-2020-25211: Fixed a buffer overflow in ctnetlink_parse_tuple_filter() which could be triggered by a local attackers by injecting conntrack netlink configuration (bnc#1176395).

CVE-2020-27835: A use-after-free in the infiniband hfi1 driver was found, specifically in the way user calls Ioctl after open dev file and fork. A local user could use this flaw to crash the system (bnc#1179878).

CVE-2020-29569: Fixed a potential privilege escalation and information leaks related to the PV block backend, as used by Xen (bnc#1179509).

CVE-2020-29568: Fixed a denial of service issue, related to processing watch events (bnc#1179508).

CVE-2020-0444: Fixed a bad kfree due to a logic error in audit_data_to_entry (bnc#1180027).

CVE-2020-0465: Fixed multiple missing bounds checks in hid-multitouch.c that could have led to local privilege escalation (bnc#1180029).

CVE-2020-0466: Fixed a use-after-free due to a logic error in do_epoll_ctl and ep_loop_check_proc of eventpoll.c (bnc#1180031).

CVE-2020-4788: Fixed an issue with IBM Power9 processors could have allowed a local user to obtain sensitive information from the data in the L1 cache under extenuating circumstances (bsc#1177666).

CVE-2020-10781: A flaw was found in the ZRAM kernel module, where a user with a local account and the ability to read the /sys/class/zram-control/hot_add file can create ZRAM device nodes in the /dev/ directory. This read allocates kernel memory and is not accounted for a user that triggers the creation of that ZRAM device. With this vulnerability, continually reading the device may consume a large amount of system memory and cause the Out-of-Memory (OOM) killer to activate and terminate random userspace processes, possibly making the system inoperable (bnc#1173074).

CVE-2020-15436: Fixed a use after free vulnerability in fs/block_dev.c which could have allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (bsc#1179141).

CVE-2020-27068: Fixed an out-of-bounds read due to a missing bounds check in the nl80211_policy policy of nl80211.c (bnc#1180086).

CVE-2020-25639: Fixed a NULL pointer dereference via nouveau ioctl (bnc#1176846).

CVE-2020-27777: Fixed a privilege escalation in the Run-Time Abstraction Services (RTAS) interface, affecting guests running on top of PowerVM or KVM hypervisors (bnc#1179107).

CVE-2020-27786: Fixed an out-of-bounds write in the MIDI implementation (bnc#1179601).

CVE-2020-27825: Fixed a race in the trace_open and buffer resize calls (bsc#1179960).

CVE-2020-29660: Fixed a locking inconsistency in the tty subsystem that may have allowed a read-after-free attack against TIOCGSID (bnc#1179745).

CVE-2020-29661: Fixed a locking issue in the tty subsystem that allowed a use-after-free attack against TIOCSPGRP (bsc#1179745).

CVE-2020-28974: Fixed a slab-out-of-bounds read in fbcon which could have been used by local attackers to read privileged information or potentially crash the kernel (bsc#1178589).

CVE-2020-28915: Fixed a buffer over-read in the fbcon code which could have been used by local attackers to read kernel memory (bsc#1178886).

CVE-2020-28374: Fixed a Linux SCSI target issue (bsc#1178372).

CVE-2020-25669: Fixed a use-after-free read in sunkbd_reinit() (bsc#1178182).

CVE-2020-29371: An issue was discovered in romfs_dev_read in fs/romfs/storage.c where uninitialized memory leaks to userspace (bnc#1179429).

CVE-2020-15437: Fixed a NULL pointer dereference which could have allowed local users to cause a denial of service(bsc#1179140).

CVE-2020-36158: Fixed a potential remote code execution in the Marvell mwifiex driver (bsc#1180559).

CVE-2020-11668: Fixed the mishandling of invalid descriptors in the Xirlink camera USB driver (bnc#1168952).

CVE-2019-20934: Fixed a use-after-free in show_numa_stats() because NUMA fault statistics were inappropriately freed (bsc#1179663).

CVE-2019-20806: Fixed a NULL pointer dereference in tw5864_handle_frame() in drivers/media/pci/tw5864/tw5864-video.c, which may cause denial of service (bnc#1172199).

The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details.

How to Run

Here is how to run the SUSE SLES15 Security Update : kernel (SUSE-SU-2021:0438-1) as a standalone plugin via the Nessus web user interface (https://localhost:8834/):

  1. Click to start a New Scan.
  2. Select Advanced Scan.
  3. Navigate to the Plugins tab.
  4. On the top right corner click to Disable All plugins.
  5. On the left side table select SuSE Local Security Checks plugin family.
  6. On the right side table select SUSE SLES15 Security Update : kernel (SUSE-SU-2021:0438-1) plugin ID 146474.
  7. Specify the target on the Settings tab and click to Save the scan.
  8. Run the scan.

Here are a few examples of how to run the plugin in the command line. Note that the examples below demonstrate the usage on the Linux / Unix platform.

Basic usage:

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl suse_SU-2021-0438-1.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with audit trail message on the console:

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -a suse_SU-2021-0438-1.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with trace script execution written to the console (useful for debugging):

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -T - suse_SU-2021-0438-1.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with using a state file for the target and updating it (useful for running multiple plugins on the target):

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -K /tmp/state suse_SU-2021-0438-1.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Go back to menu.
