ALSA: seq: Fix function prototype mismatch in snd_seq_expand_var_event
CVE: CVE-2022-48994
Component: kernel
CWE: CWE-843
Severity: Moderate
CVSS v3: 5.6/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Release date: 2022-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

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

ALSA: seq: Fix function prototype mismatch in snd_seq_expand_var_event

With clang's kernel control flow integrity (kCFI, CONFIG_CFI_CLANG),
indirect call targets are validated against the expected function
pointer prototype to make sure the call target is valid to help mitigate
ROP attacks. If they are not identical, there is a failure at run time,
which manifests as either a kernel panic or thread getting killed.

seq_copy_in_user() and seq_copy_in_kernel() did not have prototypes
matching snd_seq_dump_func_t. Adjust this and remove the casts. There
are not resulting binary output differences.

This was found as a result of Clang's new -Wcast-function-type-strict
flag, which is more sensitive than the simpler -Wcast-function-type,
which only checks for type width mismatches.

net/sched: taprio: avoid disabling offload when it was never enabled
CVE: CVE-2022-48644
Component: kernel
CWE: CWE-824
Severity: Moderate
CVSS v3: 6.2/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:H
Release date: 2022-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s Time-Aware Priority Shaper (taprio) scheduler. The issue arises because the taprio scheduler attempts to disable hardware offload, even if it was never enabled, due to an unusual API design. This issue can result in improper handling and potential system instability.

Statement: The vulnerability has a CVSS v3 score of 6.1, reflecting the potential for local attackers to exploit and impact system availability. However, confidentiality and integrity are less affected by this issue. The vulnerability was resolved by modifying the kernel to ensure offload disabling only occurs when it was actually enabled.

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

net: netsec: fix error handling in netsec_register_mdio()

If phy_device_register() fails, phy_device_free() need be called to

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

wwan_hwsim: fix possible memory leak in wwan_hwsim_dev_new()

Inject fault while probing module, if device_register() fails,
but the refcount of kobject is not decreased to 0, the name
allocated in dev_set_name() is leaked. Fix this by calling
put_device(), so that name can be freed in callback function
kobject_cleanup().

Statement: The bug causes a small memory leak in the wwan_hwsim simulator when device_register() fails, due to using kfree() instead of put_device(). This prevents proper cleanup of the kobject name.
Exploitation is not realistic: it requires privileged module loading and only results in minor memory leakage on error paths, without impact on confidentiality or integrity.

netfilter: conntrack: revisit gc autotuning
CVE: CVE-2022-49110
Component: kernel
Severity: Moderate
CVSS v3: 5.6/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Release date: 2022-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

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

netfilter: conntrack: revisit gc autotuning

as of commit 4608fdfc07e1
("netfilter: conntrack: collect all entries in one cycle")
conntrack gc was changed to run every 2 minutes.

On systems where conntrack hash table is set to large value, most evictions
happen from gc worker rather than the packet path due to hash table
distribution.

This causes netlink event overflows when events are collected.

This change collects average expiry of scanned entries and
reschedules to the average remaining value, within 1 to 60 second interval.

To avoid event overflows, reschedule after each bucket and add a
limit for both run time and number of evictions per run.

If more entries have to be evicted, reschedule and restart 1 jiffy
into the future.

improper parse of mailto URIs allows bypass of Thunderbird security mechanism for attachments
CVE: CVE-2022-4055
Component: xdg-utils
Severity: Moderate
CVSS v3: 7.4/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:N/I:H/A:N
Release date: 2022-08-03T00:00:00+00:00

When xdg-mail is configured to use thunderbird for mailto URLs, improper parsing of the URL can lead to additional headers being passed to thunderbird that should not be included per RFC 2368. An attacker can use this method to create a mailto URL that looks safe to users, but will actually attach files when clicked.

Statement: To exploit this flaw, an attacker would need to convince a user to click on a specially crafted mailto URL. Additionally, the user must have the Thunderbird email client installed and xdg-mail configured to use Thunderbird to handle mailto URLs. Therefore, this vulnerability is rated as moderate rather than important because it requires user interaction and specific system configurations.

Remediation:
To mitigate this flaw, either:
1. Do not use mailto links at all
2. Always double-check in the user interface that there are no unwanted attachments before sending emails; especially when the email originates from clicking a mailto link.
Unsafe client-side session storage leading to authentication bypass / instance takeover via Zabbix Frontend with configured SAML
CVE: CVE-2022-23131

In the case of instances where the SAML SSO authentication is enabled (non-default), session data can be modified by a malicious actor, because a user login stored in the session was not verified. Malicious unauthenticated actor may exploit this issue to escalate privileges and gain admin access to Zabbix Frontend. To perform the attack, SAML authentication is required to be enabled and the actor has to know the username of Zabbix user (or use the guest account, which is disabled by default).

option refcount overflow when leasequery is enabled leading to dhcpd abort
CVE: CVE-2022-2928
Component: dhcp
CWE: CWE-190
Severity: Moderate
CVSS v3: 6.4/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Release date: 2022-10-05T00:00:00+00:00

An integer overflow vulnerability was found in the DHCP server. When the "option_code_hash_lookup()" function is called from "add_option()", it increases the option's "refcount" field. However, there is not a corresponding call to "option_dereference()" to decrement the "refcount" field. The "add_option()" function is only used in server responses to lease query packets. Each lease query response calls this function for several options. Hence, a DHCP server configured with "allow lease query," a remote machine with access to the server, can send lease queries for the same lease multiple times, leading to the "add_option()" function being called repeatedly. This issue could cause the reference counters to overflow and the server to abort or crash.

Statement: Vulnerable servers are network accessible to an attacker and configured to allow and process lease queries.

Internally, reference counters are integers and thus overflow at 2^31 references, so even at 1000 lease query responses per second, it would take more than three weeks to crash the server.

Remediation:
Possible workaround - Disable lease query on the server for DHCPv4 or restart the server periodically.
