cpufreq: amd-pstate-ut: Fix kernel panic when loading the driver
CVE: CVE-2023-53563
Component: kernel
CWE: CWE-911
Severity: Low
CVSS v3: 5.6/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Release date: 2023-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

A reference leak flaw was found in the Linux kernel's AMD P-state unit test driver in the CPU policy access logic. A local user can trigger this issue by loading the amd-pstate-ut driver, which acquires CPU policy references via cpufreq_cpu_get without releasing them via cpufreq_cpu_put. This causes other processes attempting to access the policy to block indefinitely, resulting in hung tasks and denial of service through system unresponsiveness.

Statement: The amd_pstate_ut_check_perf and amd_pstate_ut_check_freq functions in the unit test driver call cpufreq_cpu_get to obtain and mark the CPU policy as busy. However, these functions fail to call the corresponding cpufreq_cpu_put to release the reference. This violates the cpufreq reference counting protocol and causes any subsequent attempt to access the policy—such as during mode changes or driver unload—to wait indefinitely for the reference to be released. The most visible manifestation is when changing amd_pstate modes, where processes hang for over 120 seconds waiting for completion. Since this is a unit test driver rather than production code, the practical impact is limited to testing scenarios, though the hang can affect system stability when the driver is loaded.

Authentication bypass in certificate verification in TLS-based EAP methods
CVE: CVE-2023-26463
Component: strongswan
CVSS v3: 8.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Release date: 2023-03-06T00:00:00+00:00

strongSwan 5.9.8 and 5.9.9 potentially allows remote code execution because it uses a variable named "public" for two different purposes within the same function. There is initially incorrect access control, later followed by an expired pointer dereference. One attack vector is sending an untrusted client certificate during EAP-TLS. A server is affected only if it loads plugins that implement TLS-based EAP methods (EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS, EAP-PEAP, or EAP-TNC). This is fixed in 5.9.10.

platform/x86: think-lmi: Fix memory leak when showing current settings
CVE: CVE-2023-53830
Component: kernel
CWE: CWE-772
Severity: Low
CVSS v3: 5.6/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Release date: 2023-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

A memory leak was found in the Lenovo ThinkPad LMI driver in the Linux kernel. When current_value_show() encounters malformed item strings from tlmi_setting(), it returns early without freeing the allocated memory. Repeated reads of sysfs attributes could gradually exhaust kernel memory.

Statement: This affects only Lenovo ThinkPad systems using the think-lmi driver. An attacker would need local access and sustained interaction with sysfs to cause noticeable memory pressure.

Remediation:
To mitigate this issue, prevent the think-lmi module from being loaded. See https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 for instructions.

CVE: CVE-2023-39503
Component: PDF-XChange Editor OXPS File Parsing Out-Of-Bounds Read Information Disclosure Vulnerability
Release date: 2023-08-17T19:04:40.198000+00:00

PDF-XChange Editor OXPS File Parsing Out-Of-Bounds Read Information Disclosure Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected installations of PDF-XChange Editor. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.

The specific flaw exists within the parsing of OXPS files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a read past the end of an allocated buffer. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-20036.

Statement: Red Hat Product Security has determined that this vulnerability does not affect any currently supported Red Hat product. This assessment may evolve based on further analysis and discovery.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A local user could exploit a memory leak vulnerability in the Least Recently Used (LRU) and LRU_PERCPU hash maps. This occurs when the kernel allocates a new element during a map update but fails to release it if the hash table bucket cannot be locked.

ov2740_init_controls() won't clean all the allocated resources in fail
path, which may causes the memleaks. Add v4l2_ctrl_handler_free() to
prevent memleak.

denial of Service in FTP
CVE: CVE-2023-46848
Component: squid
CWE: CWE-681
Severity: Important
CVSS v3: 8.5/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:H
Release date: 2023-10-19T00:00:00+00:00

Squid is vulnerable to Denial of Service,  where a remote attacker can perform DoS by sending ftp:// URLs in HTTP Request messages or constructing ftp:// URLs from FTP Native input.

mptcp: stricter state check in mptcp_worker
CVE: CVE-2023-54176
Component: kernel
CWE: CWE-269
Severity: Moderate
CVSS v3: 5.9/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:H
Release date: 2023-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

A vulnerability was identified in the Linux kernel’s implementation of the Multipath TCP  protocol handler. Under certain sequences of socket operations (e.g., connecting, resetting/fast-closing, and re-listening), the MPTCP worker could be invoked while the associated master socket is in an unexpected or closed state. This incorrect state handling can cause a divide-error crash during TCP window selection, leading to system instability and potential denial of service.


Remediation:
For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to:

The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect.
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options don't meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
Linux kernel: Resource leak in arc_uart driver can cause denial of service
CVE: CVE-2023-53719
Component: kernel
CWE: CWE-772
Severity: Low
CVSS v3: 5.6/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Release date: 2023-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel, specifically within the arc_uart serial driver. This vulnerability involves a resource leak where memory allocated for hardware interaction is not properly released under certain error conditions. A local attacker with low privileges could exploit this to exhaust system resources, potentially leading to a Denial of Service (DoS).

CVE: CVE-2023-42108
Component: PDF-XChange Editor EMF File Parsing Use-After-Free Remote Code Execution Vulnerability
Release date: 2023-09-29T19:31:21.654000+00:00

PDF-XChange Editor EMF File Parsing Use-After-Free Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of PDF-XChange Editor. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.

The specific flaw exists within the parsing of EMF files. The issue results from the lack of validating the existence of an object prior to performing operations on the object. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-22135.

Statement: Red Hat Product Security has determined that this vulnerability does not affect any currently supported Red Hat product. This assessment may evolve based on further analysis and discovery.
