CVE-2019-3874 Kernel buffers allocated by the SCTP network protocol were not limited by the memory cgroup controller. A local user could potentially use this to evade container memory limits and to cause a denial of service (excessive memory use). CVE-2019-19448, CVE-2019-19813, CVE-2019-19816 "Team bobfuzzer" reported bugs in Btrfs that could lead to a use-after-free or heap buffer overflow, and could be triggered by crafted filesystem images. A user permitted to mount and access arbitrary filesystems could use these to cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for privilege escalation. CVE-2020-10781 Luca Bruno of Red Hat discovered that the zram control file /sys/class/zram-control/hot_add was readable by all users. On a system with zram enabled, a local user could use this to cause a denial of service (memory exhaustion). CVE-2020-12888 It was discovered that the PCIe Virtual Function I/O (vfio-pci) driver allowed users to disable a device's memory space while it was still mapped into a process. On some hardware platforms, local users or guest virtual machines permitted to access PCIe Virtual Functions could use this to cause a denial of service (hardware error and crash). CVE-2020-14314 A bug was discovered in the ext4 filesystem that could lead to an out-of-bound read. A local user permitted to mount and access arbitrary filesystem images could use this to cause a denial of service (crash). CVE-2020-14331 A bug was discovered in the VGA console driver's soft-scrollback feature that could lead to a heap buffer overflow. On a system with a custom kernel that has CONFIG_VGACON_SOFT_SCROLLBACK enabled, a local user with access to a console could use this to cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for privilege escalation. CVE-2020-14356 A bug was discovered in the cgroup subsystem's handling of socket references to cgroups. In some cgroup configurations, this could lead to a use-after-free. A local user might be able to use this to cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for privilege escalation. CVE-2020-14385 A bug was discovered in XFS, which could lead to an extended attribute (xattr) wrongly being detected as invalid. A local user with access to an XFS filesystem could use this to cause a denial of service (filesystem shutdown). CVE-2020-14386 Or Cohen discovered a bug in the packet socket (AF_PACKET) implementation which could lead to a heap buffer overflow. A local user with the CAP_NET_RAW capability (in any user namespace) could use this to cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for privilege escalation. CVE-2020-14390 Minh Yuan discovered a bug in the framebuffer console driver's scrollback feature that could lead to a heap buffer overflow. On a system using framebuffer consoles, a local user with access to a console could use this to cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for privilege escalation. The scrollback feature has been disabled for now, as no other fix was available for this issue. CVE-2020-16166 Amit Klein reported that the random number generator used by the network stack might not be re-seeded for long periods of time, making e.g. client port number allocations more predictable. This made it easier for remote attackers to carry out some network- based attacks such as DNS cache poisoning or device tracking. CVE-2020-25212 A bug was discovered in the NFSv4 client implementation that could lead to a heap buffer overflow. A malicious NFS server could use this to cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly to execute arbitrary code on the client. CVE-2020-25284 It was discovered that the Rados block device (rbd) driver allowed tasks running as uid 0 to add and remove rbd devices, even if they dropped capabilities. On a system with the rbd driver loaded, this might allow privilege escalation from a container with a task running as root. CVE-2020-25285 A race condition was discovered in the hugetlb filesystem's sysctl handlers, that could lead to stack corruption. A local user permitted to write to hugepages sysctls could use this to cause a denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for privilege escalation. By default only the root user can do this. CVE-2020-25641 The syzbot tool found a bug in the block layer that could lead to an infinite loop. A local user with access to a raw block device could use this to cause a denial of service (unbounded CPU use and possible system hang). CVE-2020-26088 It was discovered that the NFC (Near Field Communication) socket implementation allowed any user to create raw sockets. On a system with an NFC interface, this allowed local users to evade local network security policy. For Debian 9 stretch, these problems have been fixed in version 4.19.146-1~deb9u1. This update additionally fixes Debian bugs #966846, #966917, and #968567; and includes many more bug fixes from stable updates 4.19.133-4.19.146 inclusive. We recommend that you upgrade your linux-4.19 packages. For the detailed security status of linux-4.19 please refer to its security tracker page at: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/linux-4.19 Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be found at: https://wiki.debian.org/LTS -- Ben Hutchings - Debian developer, member of kernel, installer and LTS teams
