The nfc subsystem in the linux kernel contained a use-after-free vulnerability in its nfc controller interface (nci) implementation.
The sctp protocol implementation in the linux kernel did not properly verify vtags in some situations.
The amd radeon gpu driver in the linux kernel did not properly validate writes in the debugfs file system.
The firedtv firewire driver in the linux kernel did not properly perform bounds checking in some situations.
The kvm implementation for power8 processors in the linux kernel did not properly keep track if a wakeup event could be resolved by a guest.
The tipc protocol implementation in the linux kernel did not properly validate msg_crypto messages in some situations.
The isdn capi implementation in the linux kernel contained a race condition in certain situations that could trigger an array out-of-bounds bug.
Note: The preceding description block is extracted directly from the security advisory. Using automation, we have attempted to clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-3760).
A remote attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (connection disassociation).
(CVE-2021-3772).
A privileged attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-42327).
A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-42739).
An attacker in a guest vm could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (host os crash) (CVE-2021-43056).
An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-43267).
A privileged local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2021-43389).
