QID 355815: Amazon Linux Security Advisory for kernel : ALAS2023-2023-285
An issue was discovered in the linux kernel before 6.2.
The ntfs3 subsystem does not properly check for correctness during disk reads, leading to an out-of-bounds read in ntfs_set_ea in fs/ntfs3/xattr.c. (
( CVE-2022-48502) an issue in "zen 2" cpus, under specific microarchitectural circumstances, may allow an attacker to potentially access sensitive information. (
( CVE-2023-20593) an out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the linux kernel's net/sched: sch_qfq component can be exploited to achieve local privilege escalation. the qfq_change_agg() function in net/sched/sch_qfq.c allows an out-of-bounds write because lmax is updated according to packet sizes without bounds checks. we recommend upgrading past commit 3e337087c3b5805fe0b8a46ba622a962880b5d64. (
( CVE-2023-3611) a use-after-free vulnerability in the linux kernel's net/sched: cls_fw component can be exploited to achieve local privilege escalation. if tcf_change_indev() fails, fw_set_parms() will immediately return an error after incrementing or decrementing the reference counter in tcf_bind_filter().
If an attacker can control the reference counter and set it to zero, they can cause the reference to be freed, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. we recommend upgrading past commit 0323bce598eea038714f941ce2b22541c46d488f. (
( CVE-2023-3776)
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.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to a securitybreach or could affect integrity, availability, and confidentiality.
