USN-6818-2: Linux kernel (ARM laptop) vulnerabilities

Read Time:4 Minute, 5 Second

Alon Zahavi discovered that the NVMe-oF/TCP subsystem in the Linux kernel
did not properly validate H2C PDU data, leading to a null pointer
dereference vulnerability. A remote attacker could use this to cause a
denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2023-6356, CVE-2023-6535,
CVE-2023-6536)

It was discovered that the Intel Data Streaming and Intel Analytics
Accelerator drivers in the Linux kernel allowed direct access to the
devices for unprivileged users and virtual machines. A local attacker could
use this to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2024-21823)

Chenyuan Yang discovered that the RDS Protocol implementation in the Linux
kernel contained an out-of-bounds read vulnerability. An attacker could use
this to possibly cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2024-23849)

It was discovered that a race condition existed in the Bluetooth subsystem
in the Linux kernel, leading to a null pointer dereference vulnerability. A
privileged local attacker could use this to possibly cause a denial of
service (system crash). (CVE-2024-24860)

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

Read Time:56 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 a race condition existed in the AppleTalk networking
subsystem of the Linux kernel, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A
local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash)
or possibly execute arbitrary code.(CVE-2023-51781)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been
resolved: netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: skip end interval element from gc

It was discovered that Node.js incorrectly handled certain inputs when it is
using the policy mechanism. If a user or an automated system were tricked into
opening a specially crafted input file, a remote attacker could possibly use
this issue to bypass the policy mechanism. (CVE-2023-32002, CVE-2023-32006)

It was discovered that Node.js incorrectly handled certain inputs when it is
using the policy mechanism. If a user or an automated system were tricked into
