Slackware Security Advisory - New kernel packages are available for Slackware 14.2 to fix security issues.
89355d12b17a57544c4036152b14969eRed Hat Security Advisory 2019-3517-01 - The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. Issues addressed include denial of service, heap overflow, information leakage, and use-after-free vulnerabilities.
6d1ca3b131a0815a02a22b4f2f5f2856Red Hat Security Advisory 2019-3309-01 - The kernel-rt packages provide the Real Time Linux Kernel, which enables fine-tuning for systems with extremely high determinism requirements. Issues addressed include denial of service, heap overflow, information leakage, null pointer, and use-after-free vulnerabilities.
a0f2e867941fc69f77f5654ca781bae3Ubuntu Security Notice 4115-2 - USN 4115-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the Linux 4.15 kernel for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. Unfortunately, as part of the update, a regression was introduced that caused a kernel crash when handling fragmented packets in some situations. This update addresses the issue. Various other issues were also addressed.
f3c403ca6993818b3a6b46a2dc892b23Ubuntu Security Notice 4118-1 - It was discovered that the alarmtimer implementation in the Linux kernel contained an integer overflow vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Wen Xu discovered that the XFS filesystem implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly track inode validations. An attacker could use this to construct a malicious XFS image that, when mounted, could cause a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.
606239d761ad7f615ccb6ead5cc82c96Ubuntu Security Notice 4116-1 - It was discovered that a use-after-free error existed in the block layer subsystem of the Linux kernel when certain failure conditions occurred. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Amit Klein and Benny Pinkas discovered that the Linux kernel did not sufficiently randomize IP ID values generated for connectionless networking protocols. A remote attacker could use this to track particular Linux devices. Various other issues were also addressed.
6f30126d89e5e8e65cce204ca2609ebaUbuntu Security Notice 4117-1 - It was discovered that a heap buffer overflow existed in the Marvell Wireless LAN device driver for the Linux kernel. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Amit Klein and Benny Pinkas discovered that the Linux kernel did not sufficiently randomize IP ID values generated for connectionless networking protocols. A remote attacker could use this to track particular Linux devices. Various other issues were also addressed.
5eadaf8ccbc112d9e27cc01c1d4ad083Ubuntu Security Notice 4115-1 - Hui Peng and Mathias Payer discovered that the Option USB High Speed driver in the Linux kernel did not properly validate metadata received from the device. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Zhipeng Xie discovered that an infinite loop could triggered in the CFS Linux kernel process scheduler. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.
d33b91a9062e22127c5fc65115ec33feUbuntu Security Notice 4114-1 - Amit Klein and Benny Pinkas discovered that the Linux kernel did not sufficiently randomize IP ID values generated for connectionless networking protocols. A remote attacker could use this to track particular Linux devices. Praveen Pandey discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly validate sent signals in some situations on PowerPC systems with transactional memory disabled. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.
635859f0d4e4c0dfd65dacd8d57d3a34Debian Linux Security Advisory 4497-1 - Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information leaks.
5cbc4a8b5b504c3bf0d4fe88ab472dd3Debian Linux Security Advisory 4495-1 - Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information leaks.
