  • CVE-2017-1000253

    load_elf_binary() does not allocate sufficient space for the entire binary in some cases.

    A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel loaded ELF executables. Provided that an application was built as Position Independent Executable (PIE), the loader could allow part of that application's data segment to map over the memory area reserved for its stack, potentially resulting in memory corruption. An unprivileged local user with access to SUID (or otherwise privileged) PIE binary could use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system.

  • CVE-2016-2053

    Kernel panic and system lockup by triggering BUG_ON() in public_key_verify_signature()

    A syntax vulnerability was discovered in the kernel's ASN1.1 DER decoder, which could lead to memory corruption or a complete local denial of service through x509 certificate DER files. A local system user could use a specially created key file to trigger BUG_ON() in the public_key_verify_signature() function (crypto/asymmetric_keys/public_key.c), to cause a kernel panic and crash the system.

    kvm: x86: NULL pointer dereference during instruction decode.

    An error was found in the x86 instruction decoder in KVM that may result in the kernel crash on the host. Trying to process some invalid instructions may trigger a NULL pointer dereference.

  • CVE-2016-7097

    Setting a POSIX ACL via setxattr doesn't clear the setgid bit.

    When file permissions are modified via chmod and the user is not in the owning group or capable of CAP_FSETID, the setgid bit is cleared in inode_change_ok(). Setting a POSIX ACL via setxattr sets the file permissions as well as the new ACL, but doesn't clear the setgid bit in a similar way; this allows to bypass the check in chmod.

    Out of bounds access in sctp_add_bind_addr.

    It was found that sctp_add_bind_addr() may read more bytes than expected in case the parameter is a IPv4 address supplied by the user. The kernel might crash as a result.

  • CVE-2016-7039

    Remotely triggerable unbounded recursion in the VLAN GRO code leading to a kernel crash.

    Linux kernel built with the 802.1Q/802.1ad VLAN(CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q) OR Virtual eXtensible Local Area Network(CONFIG_VXLAN) with Transparent Ethernet Bridging(TEB) GRO support is vulnerable to a stack overflow issue. It could occur while receiving large packets via GRO path, as an unlimited recursion could happen in both VLAN and TEB modules, leading to a stack corruption in the kernel.

    mm: privilege escalation via MAP_PRIVATE COW breakage.

    A race condition was found in the way the Linux kernel's memory subsystem handled the copy-on-write (COW) breakage of private read-only memory mappings. An unprivileged local user could use this flaw to gain write access to otherwise read-only memory mappings and thus increase their privileges on the system.

    netfilter: missing bounds check in ipt_entry structure.

    A security flaw was found in the Linux kernel in the mark_source_chains() function in "net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.c". It is possible for a user-supplied "ipt_entry" structure to have a large "next_offset" field. This field is not bounds checked prior to writing to a counter value at the supplied offset.
