Affected: Alpaquita:23: linux-lts, Alpaquita:25: linux-lts, Alpaquita:stream: linux-lts

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

smack: tcp: ipv4, fix incorrect labeling

Currently, Smack mirrors the label of incoming tcp/ipv4 connections: when a label 'foo' connects to a label 'bar' with tcp/ipv4, 'foo' always gets 'foo' in returned ipv4 packets. So, 1) returned packets are incorrectly labeled ('foo' instead of 'bar') 2) 'bar' can write to 'foo' without being authorized to write.

Here is a scenario how to see this:

* Take two machines, let's call them C and S, with active Smack in the default state (no settings, no rules, no labeled hosts, only builtin labels)

* At S, add Smack rule 'foo bar w' (labels 'foo' and 'bar' are instantiated at S at this moment)

* At S, at label 'bar', launch a program that listens for incoming tcp/ipv4 connections

* From C, at label 'foo', connect to the listener at S. (label 'foo' is instantiated at C at this moment) Connection succeedes and works.

* Send some data in both directions. * Collect network traffic of this connection.

All packets in both directions are labeled with the CIPSO of the label 'foo'. Hence, label 'bar' writes to 'foo' without being authorized, and even without ever being known at C.

If anybody cares: exactly the same happens with DCCP.

This behavior 1st manifested in release 2.6.29.4 (see Fixes below) and it looks unintentional. At least, no explanation was provided.

I changed returned packes label into the 'bar', to bring it into line with the Smack doc…

nfsd: NULL dereference in nfs3svc_encode_getaclres. scsi: core: use-after-free vulnerability. NFSD: vulnerability caused by loff_t overflow on the server when a client reads near the maximum offset, causing the server to return an EINVAL error, which the client retries indefinitely, instead of handling out-of-range READ requests by returning a short result with an EOF flag. NFSD: Vulnerability caused by an underflow in ia_size due to a mismatch between signed and unsigned 64-bit file size values, which can cause issues when handling large file sizes from NFS clients. NFSD: Vulnerability handling large file sizes for NFSv3 improperly capping client size values larger than s64_max, leading to unexpected behavior and potential data corruption. sh: cpuinfo: warning for CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK. When CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK and CONFIG_DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS are selected, cpu_max_bits_warn() generates a runtime warning when showing /proc/cpuinfo. A failure in the -fstack-protector feature in GCC-based toolchains that target AArch64 allows an attacker to exploit an existing buffer overflow in dynamically-sized local variables in your application without this being detected. This stack-protector failure only applies to C99-style dynamically-sized local variables or those created using alloca(). The stack-protector operates as intended for statically-sized local variables.

The default behavior when the stack-protector detects an overflow is to terminate your application, resulting…

The Linux Kernel, the operating system core itself. Security Fix(es): In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ntb: intel: Fix the NULL vs IS_ERR() bug for debugfs_create_dir() The debugfs_create_dir() function returns error pointers. It never returns NULL. So use IS_ERR() to check it.(CVE-2023-52917) In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: pci: cx23885: check cx23885_vdev_init() return cx23885_vdev_init() can return a NULL pointer, but that pointer is used in the next line without a check. Add a NULL pointer check and go to the error unwind if it is NULL.(CVE-2023-52918) In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: make sure that WRITTEN is set on all metadata blocks We previously would call btrfs_check_leaf() if we had the check integrity code enabled, which meant that we could only run the extended leaf checks if we had WRITTEN set on the header flags. This leaves a gap in our checking, because we could end up with corruption on disk where WRITTEN isn't set on the leaf, and then the extended leaf checks don't get run which we rely on to validate all of the item pointers to make sure we don't access memory outside of the extent buffer. However, since 732fab95abe2 ("btrfs: check-integrity: remove CONFIG_BTRFS_FS_CHECK_INTEGRITY option") we no longer call btrfs_check_leaf() from btrfs_mark_buffer_dirty(), which means we only ever c…
