USN-6896-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

Read Time:4 Minute, 27 Second

It was discovered that the ATA over Ethernet (AoE) driver in the Linux
kernel contained a race condition, leading to a use-after-free
vulnerability. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or
possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-6270)

It was discovered that the Atheros 802.11ac wireless driver did not
properly validate certain data structures, leading to a NULL pointer
dereference. An attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of
service. (CVE-2023-7042)

Yuxuan Hu discovered that the Bluetooth RFCOMM protocol driver in the Linux
Kernel contained a race condition, leading to a NULL pointer dereference.
An attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (system
crash). (CVE-2024-22099)

Gui-Dong Han discovered that the software RAID driver in the Linux kernel
contained a race condition, leading to an integer overflow vulnerability. A
privileged attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service
(system crash). (CVE-2024-23307)

It was discovered that a race condition existed in the Bluetooth subsystem
in the Linux kernel when modifying certain settings values through debugfs.
A privileged local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.
(CVE-2024-24857, CVE-2024-24858, CVE-2024-24859)

Bai Jiaju discovered that the Xceive XC4000 silicon tuner device driver in
the Linux kernel contained a race condition, leading to an integer overflow
vulnerability. An attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of
service (system crash). (CVE-2024-24861)

Chenyuan Yang discovered that the Unsorted Block Images (UBI) flash device
volume management subsystem did not properly validate logical eraseblock
sizes in certain situations. An attacker could possibly use this to cause a
denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2024-25739)

Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel.
An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.

strings. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Apport to
make arbitrary network connections. (CVE-2022-28655)

Gerrit Venema discovered that Apport did not limit the amount of memory
being consumed during D-Bus connections. A local attacker could possibly
use this issue to cause Apport to consume memory, leading to a denial of
service. (CVE-2022-28656)

USN-6885-2: Apache HTTP Server regression

Read Time:1 Minute, 24 Second

USN-6885-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Apache HTTP Server. One of the security
fixes introduced a regression when proxying requests to a HTTP/2 server.
This update fixes the problem.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Original advisory details:

Marc Stern discovered that the Apache HTTP Server incorrectly handled
serving WebSocket protocol upgrades over HTTP/2 connections. A remote
attacker could possibly use this issue to cause the server to crash,
resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2024-36387)

Orange Tsai discovered that the Apache HTTP Server mod_proxy module
incorrectly sent certain request URLs with incorrect encodings to backends.
A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass authentication.
(CVE-2024-38473)

Orange Tsai discovered that the Apache HTTP Server mod_rewrite module
incorrectly handled certain substitutions. A remote attacker could possibly
use this issue to execute scripts in directories not directly reachable
by any URL, or cause a denial of service. Some environments may require
using the new UnsafeAllow3F flag to handle unsafe substitutions.
(CVE-2024-38474, CVE-2024-38475, CVE-2024-39573)

Orange Tsai discovered that the Apache HTTP Server incorrectly handled
certain response headers. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue
to obtain sensitive information, execute local scripts, or perform SSRF
attacks. (CVE-2024-38476)

Orange Tsai discovered that the Apache HTTP Server mod_proxy module
incorrectly handled certain requests. A remote attacker could possibly use
this issue to cause the server to crash, resulting in a denial of service.
(CVE-2024-38477)

It was discovered that the Apache HTTP Server incorrectly handled certain
handlers configured via AddType. A remote attacker could possibly use this
issue to obtain source code. (CVE-2024-39884)
