Kernel Update Version:
3.10.0-862.9.1.vz7.63.3
Release Date:
2022-03-02 08:28:02
  • PSBM-91361

    Kernel crash (BUG_ON) ploop_relocblks_ioc().

  • PSBM-91032

    /proc/sys/net/core/somaxconn was not available in the containers.

  • CVE-2018-18397

    userfaultfd bypasses tmpfs file permissions.

    A flaw was found in the implementation of userfaultfd. An attacker is able to bypass file permissions on filesystems mounted with tmpfs/hugetlbs to modify a file and possibly disrupt normal system behaviour. At this time there is an understanding there is no crash or priviledge escalation but the impact of modifications on these filesystems of files in production systems may have adverse affects.

  • PSBM-91527

    ipvs: an unneeded debug message is output when a network namespace is initialized.

    Debug message 'IPVS: Creating netns size=... id=...' could be output many times to the system log when the network namespaces are initialized, making the log less readable.
  • PSBM-91181

    'perf record -a' causes segfaults in applications executing vsyscalls.

  • PSBM-90803

    Some operations with ebtables could consume large amounts of memory, resulting in DoS.

    A flaw was found in the implementation of ebtables in the Linux kernel. A local attacker in a container could exploit it to consume large amounts of memory, eventually causing denial of service on the host.
  • PSBM-90329

    Kernel crash (access out of bounds) in SyS_mincore().

  • PSBM-90291

    vhost: kernel crash (access out of bounds) in memcpy_fromiovecend().

  • PSBM-89403

    tcache was not shrunk in some situations.

  • CVE-2018-16884

    NFS: use-after-free in svc_process_common().

    A flaw was found in the implementation of NFS v4.1 in the Linux kernel. NFS v4.1 shares mounted in different network namespaces at the same time can make bc_svc_process() use wrong back-channel id and cause a use-after-free. A malicious user in a container can exploit this to cause a host kernel memory corruption and a system crash.

  • CVE-2018-9568

    Memory corruption due to incorrect socket cloning.

    Transforming an IPv6-socket to an IPv4, and then transforming it back to a listening socket could result in a kernel memory corruption. An unprivileged user on the host or in a container could exploit this to crash the kernel.

  • CVE-2018-14646

    NULL pointer dereference in af_netlink.c: __netlink_ns_capable() allows for denial of service.

    The Linux kernel was found to be vulnerable to a NULL pointer dereference bug in the __netlink_ns_capable() function in the net/netlink/af_netlink.c file. A local attacker could exploit this when a net namespace with a netnsid is assigned to cause a kernel panic and a denial of service.

  • PSBM-90052

    Asynchronous discard requests could fail with EIO because ploop did not properly align them.

  • PSBM-90024

    Some operations with NFS server running in a container could crash the host kernel.

    It was discovered that a special sequence of operations involving NFS server in a container with FEATURES="nfsd=on" could crash the host kernel.
  • PSBM-89856

    Data corruption after online resize of an empty ploop image located on Virtuozzo Storage.

  • CVE-2018-16862

    cleancache: missing invalidation of an inode could cause data corruption.

  • PSBM-89583

    Errors in the implementation of online resize in ext4 caused failures of ploop resize operations.

  • PSBM-89323

    Potential kernel crash in cbt_flush_cpu_cache().

  • PSBM-89725

    Ploop: integer overflow in the implementation of direct IO could lead to errors when resizing the ploop image.

  • PSBM-89520

    Incorrect accounting of network namespaces in the error paths in copy_net_ns().

  • PSBM-89717

    Use-after-free in the implementation of the shared memory.

    A flaw was found in the implementation of the shared memory in the Linux kernel. shm_mmap() function did not always check if the underlying file structures were valid, which could lead to use-after-free. A local unprivileged user could exploit this to crash the kernel by executing a special sequence of system calls.
  • CVE-2018-18559

    Use-after-free due to race condition in AF_PACKET implementation.

    It was discovered that a race condition between packet_do_bind() and packet_notifier() in the implementation of AF_PACKET could lead to use-after-free. An unprivileged user on the host or in a container could exploit this to crash the kernel or, potentially, to escalate their privileges in the system.

  • PSBM-88809

    Potential kernel crash in ext4_close_pfcache().

  • CVE-2018-14634

    Integer overflow in create_elf_tables() function.

    An integer overflow flaw was found in create_elf_tables(). An unprivileged local user with access to SUID (or otherwise privileged) binary could use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system.
    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=CVE-2018-14634
  • CVE-2017-1000365

    Bypass of the size restriction on the arguments and environment variables of a process.

    The Linux kernel imposes a size limit on the memory needed to store the arguments and environment variables of a process, 1/4 of the maximum stack size (RLIMIT_STACK). However, the pointers to these data were not taken into account, which allowed attackers to bypass the limit and even exhaust the stack of the process.
    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=CVE-2017-1000365
  • PSBM-88818

    Kernel crash in __run_hrtimer().

    It was found that the implementation of high resolution timers ('hrtimer' subsystem) did not handle the situation when a timer was started simultaneously with its restart in another thread. As a result, a BUG_ON() could trigger in __run_hrtimer() leading to kernel crash.
  • PSBM-88577

    Soft lockup in xfrm_policy_flush().

    If an error occurred during execution of xfrm_net_init() when a new network namespace was created, xfrm_policy_lock could remain uninitialized. As a result, soft lockup could happen in xfrm_policy_flush() if it tried to acquire the lock after that.
  • PSBM-88561

    ploop: kernel crash in dio_open().

    It was found that the implementation of ploop did not handle errors reported by kthread_create() properly. This could lead to a kernel crash in dio_open().
  • PSBM-87836

    Containers with NFS mounts failed to migrate: CRIU complained about nfs/clntX files.

    It was discovered that a container with NFS mounts could keep the files /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs/nfs/clntX open, even if no NFS server was running there. As a result, CRIU reported errors when the users tried to migrate the container.
  • PSBM-88082

    File systems: insufficient error handling in sget() could lead to excessive memory consumption.

  • PSBM-87859

    Kernel bug: scheduling while atomic in scsi_register_device_handler().

  • PSBM-73001

    sunrpc: potential kernel crash (use after free) in svc_process_common().

  • PSBM-87665

    fuse_kio_pcs: potential kernel crash (NULL pointer dereference) in pcs_map_encode_req().

  • PSBM-87649

    Potential out-of-bounds read in fuse_dev_splice_write().

  • PSBM-87670

    Attempts to start a container fail with errors like 'cannot create directory /sys/fs/cgroup/beancounter/{something}'.

  • PSBM-87281

    'libvirtd' service was unresponsive because 'cgroup_mutex' was held for a long time.

  • PSBM-87858

    Haproxy processes are getting stuck in D state in lock_sock().

  • PSBM-87877

    Processes could get stuck in an unkillable state when using large FUSE KIO messages.

    It was found that rpc_get_hdr() function from 'fuse_kio_pcs' module did not return valid values in 'msg_size' in some cases. As a result, the processes using large FUSE KIO messages could get stuck in an unkillable state.
  • PSBM-87338

    Containers failed to start due to memory allocation failure in ip_set_net_init().

    Kernel module 'ip_set' tried to allocate physically contiguous memory areas for its array of pointers to 'ip_set' structures in ip_set_net_init(). If large enough maximum number of IP sets was requested from the user space, memory allocation would fail. Containers would fail to start as a result.
  • CVE-2017-18344

    Out-of-bounds access in show_timer() function.

    The implementation of timer_create system call in the Linux kernel before 4.14.8 doesn't properly validate the sigevent::sigev_notify field, which leads to out-of-bounds access in the show_timer function (called when /proc/$PID/timers is read). This allows userspace applications to read arbitrary kernel memory (on a kernel built with CONFIG_POSIX_TIMERS and CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE).
