integer underflow in DNS packet decompression
CVE: CVE-2023-31137
Component: maradns
CVSS v3: 7.5/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Release date: 2023-05-09T00:00:00+00:00

MaraDNS is open-source software that implements the Domain Name System (DNS). In version 3.5.0024 and prior, a remotely exploitable integer underflow vulnerability in the DNS packet decompression function allows an attacker to cause a Denial of Service by triggering an abnormal program termination.

The vulnerability exists in the `decomp_get_rddata` function within the `Decompress.c` file. When handling a DNS packet with an Answer RR of qtype 16 (TXT record) and any qclass, if the `rdlength` is smaller than `rdata`, the result of the line `Decompress.c:886` is a negative number `len = rdlength - total;`. This value is then passed to the `decomp_append_bytes` function without proper validation, causing the program to attempt to allocate a massive chunk of memory that is impossible to allocate. Consequently, the program exits with an error code of 64, causing a Denial of Service.

One proposed fix for this vulnerability is to patch `Decompress.c:887` by breaking `if(len <= 0)`, which has been incorporated in version 3.5.0036 via commit bab062bde40b2ae8a91eecd522e84d8b993bab58.

KVM: nSVM: Load L1's TSC multiplier based on L1 state, not L2 state
CVE: CVE-2023-53208
Component: kernel
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

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

KVM: nSVM: Load L1's TSC multiplier based on L1 state, not L2 state

When emulating nested VM-Exit, load L1's TSC multiplier if L1's desired
ratio doesn't match the current ratio, not if the ratio L1 is using for
L2 diverges from the default.  Functionally, the end result is the same
as KVM will run L2 with L1's multiplier if L2's multiplier is the default,
i.e. checking that L1's multiplier is loaded is equivalent to checking if
L2 has a non-default multiplier.

However, the assertion that TSC scaling is exposed to L1 is flawed, as
userspace can trigger the WARN at will by writing the MSR and then
updating guest CPUID to hide the feature (modifying guest CPUID is
allowed anytime before KVM_RUN).  E.g. hacking KVM's state_test
selftest to do

                vcpu_set_msr(vcpu, MSR_AMD64_TSC_RATIO, 0);
                vcpu_clear_cpuid_feature(vcpu, X86_FEATURE_TSCRATEMSR);

after restoring state in a new VM+vCPU yields an endless supply of:

  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  WARNING: CPU: 10 PID: 206939 at arch/x86/kvm/svm/nested.c:1105
           nested_svm_vmexit+0x6af/0x720 [kvm_amd]
  Call Trace:

   entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd

Unlike the nested VMRUN path, hoisting the svm->tsc_scaling_enabled check
into the if-statement is wrong as KVM needs to ensure L1's multiplier is
loaded in the above scenario.   Alternatively, the WARN_ON() could simply
be deleted, but that would make KVM's behavior even more subtle, e.g. it's
not immediately obvious why it's safe to write MSR_AMD64_TSC_RATIO when
checking only tsc_ratio_msr.

spi: bcm-qspi: return error if neither hif_mspi nor mspi is available
CVE: CVE-2023-53658
Component: kernel
Severity: None
Release date: 2023-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

spi: bcm-qspi: return error if neither hif_mspi nor mspi is available

If neither a "hif_mspi" nor "mspi" resource is present, the driver will
just early exit in probe but still return success. Apart from not doing
anything meaningful, this would then also lead to a null pointer access
on removal, as platform_get_drvdata() would return NULL, which it would
then try to dereference when trying to unregister the spi master.

Fix this by unconditionally calling devm_ioremap_resource(), as it can
handle a NULL res and will then return a viable ERR_PTR() if we get one.

The "return 0;" was previously a "goto qspi_resource_err;" where then
ret was returned, but since ret was still initialized to 0 at this place
this was a valid conversion in 63c5395bb7a9 ("spi: bcm-qspi: Fix
use-after-free on unbind"). The issue was not introduced by this commit,
only made more obvious.

Shell Captive Portal Hijack
CVE: CVE-2023-50977
Component: gnome-shell
CWE: CWE-20
Severity: Moderate
CVSS v3: 7.5/AV:A/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Release date: 2023-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

A flaw was found In gnome-shell. The GNOME Network Manager and GNOME Shell Portal Helper connectivity checks send DNS checks that, if intercepted, may be used to launch a GNOME Captive Portal in a WebKitGTK browser and load arbitrary HTML and Javascript code.

Statement: This vulnerability is classified as moderate severity rather than high because it requires a specific and controlled environment to be exploited effectively. The attacker needs to perform DNS hijacking within the same local network, which limits the scope of potential targets. Additionally, the exploit depends on the GNOME Captive Portal automatically opening a WebKitGTK browser, which, while a default behavior, may not be universally applicable across all GNOME configurations. Furthermore, modern web browsers use sandboxing as a mechanism to contain malicious activity, significantly reducing the potential impact of the exploit. This sandboxing mitigates the risk of the attack affecting other parts of the system, thus lowering the severity of this flaw to moderate. The exploitation vector, while technically feasible, involves multiple steps that reduce the likelihood of widespread, automated attacks. Thus, the impact, while serious, is confined to scenarios with network control and specific GNOME settings, justifying its moderate severity classification.

Remediation:
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.
CVE: CVE-2023-42049

ALSA: ymfpci: Create card with device-managed snd_devm_card_new()
CVE: CVE-2023-54308
Component: kernel
CWE: CWE-459
Severity: Low
CVSS v3: 4.7/AV:L/AC:H/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's ALSA ymfpci sound driver. During a previous refactoring commit that removed snd_card_ymfpci_remove(), the snd_card_new() call was not updated to snd_devm_card_new(). This omission means snd_card_free() is never called during module unload, leading to a kernel oops when userspace attempts to access the sound device after module removal.

Statement: This affects systems with Yamaha YMF724/740/744/754 PCI sound cards using the ymfpci driver. The crash occurs only after the module is unloaded and a subsequent access attempt is made to the sound device. Standard system operation without module unloading is unaffected, limiting the impact to administrative driver management scenarios.

ext4: Fix possible corruption when moving a directory
CVE: CVE-2023-53137
Component: kernel
CWE: CWE-362
Severity: Low
CVSS v3: 3.7/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L
Release date: 2023-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

No description is available for this CVE.

Statement: Although this CVE has been officially rejected, it could be considered a low-impact security issue, as local unprivileged users might theoretically trigger filesystem corruption. However, exploitation would be highly impractical in real-world conditions.
A race in ext4_rename() could let a local user who can rename directories trigger metadata corruption when the target directory changes format concurrently (inline to normal), potentially leading to filesystem corruption or crashes. The issue requires local access and precise timing (high complexity), but impacts integrity and availability of the filesystem.
This issue does not provide a path for privilege escalation, but it can lead to a kernel crash and potentially result in file system corruption.
