Red Hat Red Hat Virtualization 4 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 vulnerabilities

CVE-2023-6606 High · 7.1 CWE-125 Dec 8, 2023

Kernel: out-of-bounds read vulnerability in smbcalcsize

An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in smbCalcSize in fs/smb/client/netmisc.c in the Linux Kernel. This issue could allow a local attacker to crash the system or leak internal kernel information.

CVE-2023-5178 High · 8.8 CWE-416 Nov 1, 2023

Kernel: use after free in nvmet_tcp_free_crypto in nvme

A use-after-free vulnerability was found in drivers/nvme/target/tcp.c` in `nvmet_tcp_free_crypto` due to a logical bug in the NVMe/TCP subsystem in the Linux kernel. This issue may allow a malicious user to cause a use-after-free and double-free problem, which may permit remote code execution or lead to local privilege escalation.

CVE-2023-4911 High · 7.8 KEV Urgent · 76 Public exploit CWE-787 Oct 3, 2023

GNU C Library Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

A buffer overflow was discovered in the GNU C Library's dynamic loader ld.so while processing the GLIBC_TUNABLES environment variable. This issue could allow a local attacker to use maliciously crafted GLIBC_TUNABLES environment variables when launching binaries with SUID permission to execute code with elevated privileges.

CVE-2023-42753 High · 7.8 CWE-787 Sep 25, 2023

Kernel: netfilter: potential slab-out-of-bound access due to integer underflow

An array indexing vulnerability was found in the netfilter subsystem of the Linux kernel. A missing macro could lead to a miscalculation of the `h->nets` array offset, providing attackers with the primitive to arbitrarily increment/decrement a memory buffer out-of-bound. This issue may allow a local user to crash the system or potentially escalate their privileges on the system.

CVE-2023-4806 Medium · 5.9 CWE-416 Sep 18, 2023

Glibc: potential use-after-free in getaddrinfo()

A flaw has been identified in glibc. In an extremely rare situation, the getaddrinfo function may access memory that has been freed, resulting in an application crash. This issue is only exploitable when a NSS module implements only the _nss_*_gethostbyname2_r and _nss_*_getcanonname_r hooks without implementing the _nss_*_gethostbyname3_r hook. The resolved name should return a large number of IPv6 and IPv4, and the call to the getaddrinfo function should have the AF_INET6 address family with AI_CANONNAME, AI_ALL and AI_V4MAPPED as flags.

CVE-2023-4813 Medium · 5.9 CWE-416 Sep 12, 2023

Glibc: potential use-after-free in gaih_inet()

A flaw has been identified in glibc. In an uncommon situation, the gaih_inet function may use memory that has been freed, resulting in an application crash. This issue is only exploitable when the getaddrinfo function is called and the hosts database in /etc/nsswitch.conf is configured with SUCCESS=continue or SUCCESS=merge.

CVE-2023-4459 Medium · 5.5 CWE-476 Aug 21, 2023

Kernel: vmxnet3: null pointer dereference in vmxnet3_rq_cleanup()

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in vmxnet3_rq_cleanup in drivers/net/vmxnet3/vmxnet3_drv.c in the networking sub-component in vmxnet3 in the Linux Kernel. This issue may allow a local attacker with normal user privilege to cause a denial of service due to a missing sanity check during cleanup.

CVE-2023-4004 High · 7.8 CWE-416 Jul 31, 2023

Kernel: netfilter: use-after-free due to improper element removal in nft_pipapo_remove()

A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel's netfilter in the way a user triggers the nft_pipapo_remove function with the element, without a NFT_SET_EXT_KEY_END. This issue could allow a local user to crash the system or potentially escalate their privileges on the system.

CVE-2023-3772 Medium · 4.4 CWE-476 Jul 25, 2023

Kernel: xfrm: null pointer dereference in xfrm_update_ae_params()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s IP framework for transforming packets (XFRM subsystem). This issue may allow a malicious user with CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges to directly dereference a NULL pointer in xfrm_update_ae_params(), leading to a possible kernel crash and denial of service.
