  • CVE-2018-13405

    SGID bit was not cleared on the files created by the users not present in the group that owned the SGID directory.

    It was discovered that the local users could create files with an unintended group ownership and with group execution and SGID permission bits set. It was possible when a directory was SGID, belonged to a certain group and was writable by a user who was not a member of this group. This could lead to excessive permissions granted in case when they should not.

    The implementation of mq_notify system call in the Linux kernel through 4.11.9 does not set the sock pointer to NULL upon entry into the retry logic. During a user-space close of a Netlink socket, it allows attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact.

    net: Heap overflow in skb_to_sgvec in macsec.c.

    Heap-based buffer overflow in drivers/net/macsec.c in the MACsec module in the Linux kernel through 4.10.12 allows attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging the use of a MAX_SKB_FRAGS+1 size in conjunction with the NETIF_F_FRAGLIST feature, leading to an error in the skb_to_sgvec function.

  • CVE-2017-8797

    NFSv4 server does not properly validate layout type when processing NFSv4 pNFS LAYOUTGET operand.

    The NFSv4 server in the Linux kernel compiled with CONFIG_NFSD_PNFS enabled does not properly validate layout type when processing NFSv4 pNFS LAYOUTGET and GETDEVICEINFO operands. The attack payload fits to single one-way UDP packet. The provided input value is used for array dereferencing. This may lead to a remote DoS of [knfsd] and so to a soft-lockup of a whole system.

    Use after free in vxlan_dellink().

    A vulnerability was found in the implementation of vxlan interfaces in the Linux kernel. A privileged user inside a container was able to trigger a use-after-free in vxlan_dellink() function with a special sequence of operations with vxlan interfaces, which could result in a system crash or could possibly have other unspecified impact.
  • CVE-2017-9242

    Kernel crash (out-of-bounds write) in __ip6_append_data().

    The __ip6_append_data function in net/ipv6/ip6_output.c in the Linux kernel through 4.11.3 is too late in checking whether an overwrite of an skb data structure may occur, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via crafted system calls.
