=========================================================================== Ubuntu Security Notice USN-3314-1 June 07, 2017 linux, linux-raspi2 vulnerabilities =========================================================================== A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 17.04 Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel. Software Description: - linux: Linux kernel - linux-raspi2: Linux kernel for Raspberry Pi 2 Details: It was discovered that the keyring implementation in the Linux kernel in some situations did not prevent special internal keyrings from being joined by userspace keyrings. A privileged local attacker could use this to bypass module verification. (CVE-2016-9604) It was discovered that a buffer overflow existed in the trace subsystem in the Linux kernel. A privileged local attacker could use this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-0605) Daniel Jiang discovered that a race condition existed in the ipv4 ping socket implementation in the Linux kernel. A local privileged attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2017-2671) JongHwan Kim discovered an out-of-bounds read in the TCP stack of the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or leak sensitive information. (CVE-2017-7277) Eric Biggers discovered a memory leak in the keyring implementation in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (memory consumption). (CVE-2017-7472) Sabrina Dubroca discovered that the asynchronous cryptographic hash (ahash) implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle a full request queue. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (infinite recursion). (CVE-2017-7618) Tuomas Haanp=E4=E4 and Ari Kauppi discovered that the NFSv2 and NFSv3 server implementations in the Linux kernel did not properly handle certain long RPC replies. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2017-7645) Tommi Rantala and Brad Spengler discovered that the memory manager in the Linux kernel did not properly enforce the CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM protection mechanism. A local attacker with access to /dev/mem could use this to expose sensitive information or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-7889) Tuomas Haanp=E4=E4 and Ari Kauppi discovered that the NFSv2 and NFSv3 server implementations in the Linux kernel did not properly check for the end of buffer. A remote attacker could use this to craft requests that cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-7895) Fabian Gr=FCnbichler discovered that the Packet action API implementation in the Linux kernel improperly handled uninitialized data. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-7979) It was discovered that the Conexant USB driver in the Linux kernel improperly handled memory in some configurations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2017-8063) It was discovered that the DVD USB framework in the Linux kernel improperly handled memory in some configurations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2017-8064) It was discovered that the virtio console driver in the Linux kernel improperly handled memory. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2017-8067) Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 17.04: linux-image-4.10.0-1006-raspi2 4.10.0-1006.8 linux-image-4.10.0-22-generic 4.10.0-22.24 linux-image-4.10.0-22-generic-lpae 4.10.0-22.24 linux-image-4.10.0-22-lowlatency 4.10.0-22.24 linux-image-generic 4.10.0.22.24 linux-image-generic-lpae 4.10.0.22.24 linux-image-lowlatency 4.10.0.22.24 linux-image-raspi2 4.10.0.1006.8 After a standard system update you need to reboot your computer to make all the necessary changes. ATTENTION: Due to an unavoidable ABI change the kernel updates have been given a new version number, which requires you to recompile and reinstall all third party kernel modules you might have installed. Unless you manually uninstalled the standard kernel metapackages (e.g. linux-generic, linux-generic-lts-RELEASE, linux-virtual, linux-powerpc), a standard system upgrade will automatically perform this as well.
