USN-6775-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

Read Time:25 Second

Zheng Wang discovered that the Broadcom FullMAC WLAN driver in the Linux
kernel contained a race condition during device removal, leading to a use-
after-free vulnerability. A physically proximate attacker could possibly
use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2023-47233)

Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel.
An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems:
– MAC80211 subsystem;
– Tomoyo security module;
(CVE-2024-26622, CVE-2023-52530)

use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2023-47233)

Sander Wiebing, Alvise de Faveri Tron, Herbert Bos, and Cristiano Giuffrida
discovered that the Linux kernel mitigations for the initial Branch History
Injection vulnerability (CVE-2022-0001) were insufficient for Intel
processors. A local attacker could potentially use this to expose sensitive
information. (CVE-2024-2201)

Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel.
An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems:
– Hardware random number generator core;

– Bluetooth subsystem;
– Networking core;
– IPv4 networking;
– Logical Link layer;
– Netlink;
– Tomoyo security module;

USN-6773-1: .NET vulnerabilities

Read Time:20 Second

It was discovered that .NET did not properly handle memory in it’s
Double Parse routine. An attacker could possibly use this issue to
achieve remote code execution. (CVE-2024-30045)

It was discovered that .NET did not properly handle the usage of a
shared resource. An attacker could possibly use this to cause a dead-lock
condition, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2024-30046)
