The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 4.05, has kernel packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - The inet_csk_clone_lock function in     net/ipv4/inet_connection_sock.c in the Linux kernel     allows attackers to cause a denial of service (double     free) or possibly have unspecified other impact by     leveraging use of the accept system call. An     unprivileged local user could use this flaw to induce     kernel memory corruption on the system, leading to a     crash. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege     escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we     believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2017-8890)

  - The sctp_v6_create_accept_sk function in net/sctp/ipv6.c     in the Linux kernel mishandles inheritance, which allows     local users to cause a denial of service or possibly     have unspecified other impact via crafted system calls,     a related issue to CVE-2017-8890. An unprivileged local     user could use this flaw to induce kernel memory     corruption on the system, leading to a crash. Due to the     nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully     ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely.
    (CVE-2017-9075)

  - The IPv6 DCCP implementation in the Linux kernel     mishandles inheritance, which allows local users to     cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified     other impact via crafted system calls, a related issue     to CVE-2017-8890. An unprivileged local user could use     this flaw to induce kernel memory corruption on the     system, leading to a crash. Due to the nature of the     flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out,     although we believe it is unlikely. (CVE-2017-9076)

  - The tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock function in net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c     in the Linux kernel mishandles inheritance, which allows     local users to cause a denial of service or possibly     have unspecified other impact via crafted system calls,     a related issue to CVE-2017-8890. An unprivileged local     user could use this flaw to induce kernel memory     corruption on the system, leading to a crash. Due to the     nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully     ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely.

The remote Oracle Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2017-1842 advisory.

  - The do_umount function in fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel through 3.17 does not require the     CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability for do_remount_sb calls that change the root filesystem to read-only, which     allows local users to cause a denial of service (loss of writability) by making certain unshare system     calls, clearing the / MNT_LOCKED flag, and making an MNT_FORCE umount system call. (CVE-2014-7975)

  - The proc_keys_show function in security/keys/proc.c in the Linux kernel through 4.8.2, when the GNU     Compiler Collection (gcc) stack protector is enabled, uses an incorrect buffer size for certain timeout     data, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (stack memory corruption and panic) by reading     the /proc/keys file. (CVE-2016-7042)

  - Race condition in the netlink_dump function in net/netlink/af_netlink.c in the Linux kernel before 4.6.3     allows local users to cause a denial of service (double free) or possibly have unspecified other impact     via a crafted application that makes sendmsg system calls, leading to a free operation associated with a     new dump that started earlier than anticipated. (CVE-2016-9806)

  - The blk_rq_map_user_iov function in block/blk-map.c in the Linux kernel before 4.8.14 does not properly     restrict the type of iterator, which allows local users to read or write to arbitrary kernel memory     locations or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) by leveraging access to a /dev/sg device.
    (CVE-2016-9576)

  - The sg implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.9 does not properly restrict write operations in     situations where the KERNEL_DS option is set, which allows local users to read or write to arbitrary     kernel memory locations or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) by leveraging access to a /dev/sg     device, related to block/bsg.c and drivers/scsi/sg.c. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an     incomplete fix for CVE-2016-9576. (CVE-2016-10088)

  - The filesystem implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.8.2 preserves the setgid bit during a setxattr     call, which allows local users to gain group privileges by leveraging the existence of a setgid program     with restrictions on execute permissions. (CVE-2016-7097)

  - The sg_ioctl function in drivers/scsi/sg.c in the Linux kernel through 4.10.4 allows local users to cause     a denial of service (stack-based buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a large     command size in an SG_NEXT_CMD_LEN ioctl call, leading to out-of-bounds write access in the sg_write     function. (CVE-2017-7187)

  - crypto/mcryptd.c in the Linux kernel before 4.8.15 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL     pointer dereference and system crash) by using an AF_ALG socket with an incompatible algorithm, as     demonstrated by mcryptd(md5). (CVE-2016-10147)

  - arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the Linux kernel through 4.9 mismanages the #BP and #OF exceptions, which allows     guest OS users to cause a denial of service (guest OS crash) by declining to handle an exception thrown by     an L2 guest. (CVE-2016-9588)

  - The nested_vmx_check_vmptr function in arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the Linux kernel through 4.9.8 improperly     emulates the VMXON instruction, which allows KVM L1 guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS     memory consumption) by leveraging the mishandling of page references. (CVE-2017-2596)

  - The TCP stack in the Linux kernel before 4.8.10 mishandles skb truncation, which allows local users to     cause a denial of service (system crash) via a crafted application that makes sendto system calls, related     to net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c and net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c. (CVE-2016-8645)

  - The ipv4_pktinfo_prepare function in net/ipv4/ip_sockglue.c in the Linux kernel through 4.9.9 allows     attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via (1) an application that makes crafted system     calls or possibly (2) IPv4 traffic with invalid IP options. (CVE-2017-5970)

  - Race condition in kernel/events/core.c in the Linux kernel before 4.9.7 allows local users to gain     privileges via a crafted application that makes concurrent perf_event_open system calls for moving a     software group into a hardware context. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for     CVE-2016-6786. (CVE-2017-6001)

  - The KEYS subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.18 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial     of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via vectors involving a NULL value for a certain     match field, related to the keyring_search_iterator function in keyring.c. (CVE-2017-2647)

  - The inet_csk_clone_lock function in net/ipv4/inet_connection_sock.c in the Linux kernel through 4.10.15     allows attackers to cause a denial of service (double free) or possibly have unspecified other impact by     leveraging use of the accept system call. (CVE-2017-8890)

  - The tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock function in net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c in the Linux kernel through 4.11.1 mishandles     inheritance, which allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other     impact via crafted system calls, a related issue to CVE-2017-8890. (CVE-2017-9077)

  - The pivot_root implementation in fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel through 3.17 does not properly     interact with certain locations of a chroot directory, which allows local users to cause a denial of     service (mount-tree loop) via . (dot) values in both arguments to the pivot_root system call.
    (CVE-2014-7970)

  - crypto/algif_skcipher.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4.2 does not verify that a setkey operation has been     performed on an AF_ALG socket before an accept system call is processed, which allows local users to cause     a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a crafted application that does not     supply a key, related to the lrw_crypt function in crypto/lrw.c. (CVE-2015-8970)

  - Race condition in the L2TPv3 IP Encapsulation feature in the Linux kernel before 4.8.14 allows local users     to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) by making multiple bind system calls     without properly ascertaining whether a socket has the SOCK_ZAPPED status, related to net/l2tp/l2tp_ip.c     and net/l2tp/l2tp_ip6.c. (CVE-2016-10200)

  - fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel before 4.9 does not restrict how many mounts may exist in a mount     namespace, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and deadlock) via     MS_BIND mount system calls, as demonstrated by a loop that triggers exponential growth in the number of     mounts. (CVE-2016-6213)

  - It was discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.11-rc8 that root can gain direct access to an internal     keyring, such as '.dns_resolver' in RHEL-7 or '.builtin_trusted_keys' upstream, by joining it as its     session keyring. This allows root to bypass module signature verification by adding a new public key of     its own devising to the keyring. (CVE-2016-9604)

  - The ping_unhash function in net/ipv4/ping.c in the Linux kernel through 4.10.8 is too late in obtaining a     certain lock and consequently cannot ensure that disconnect function calls are safe, which allows local     users to cause a denial of service (panic) by leveraging access to the protocol value of IPPROTO_ICMP in a     socket system call. (CVE-2017-2671)

  - The keyring_search_aux function in security/keys/keyring.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.79 allows     local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and OOPS) via a request_key system call     for the dead type. (CVE-2017-6951)

  - Incorrect error handling in the set_mempolicy and mbind compat syscalls in mm/mempolicy.c in the Linux     kernel through 4.10.9 allows local users to obtain sensitive information from uninitialized stack data by     triggering failure of a certain bitmap operation. (CVE-2017-7616)

  - The mm subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.2 does not properly enforce the CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM     protection mechanism, which allows local users to read or write to kernel memory locations in the first     megabyte (and bypass slab-allocation access restrictions) via an application that opens the /dev/mem file,     related to arch/x86/mm/init.c and drivers/char/mem.c. (CVE-2017-7889)

  - The IPv6 fragmentation implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.11.1 does not consider that the     nexthdr field may be associated with an invalid option, which allows local users to cause a denial of     service (out-of-bounds read and BUG) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted socket and send     system calls. (CVE-2017-9074)

  - The dccp_v6_request_recv_sock function in net/dccp/ipv6.c in the Linux kernel through 4.11.1 mishandles     inheritance, which allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other     impact via crafted system calls, a related issue to CVE-2017-8890. (CVE-2017-9076)

  - The __ip6_append_data function in net/ipv6/ip6_output.c in the Linux kernel through 4.11.3 is too late in     checking whether an overwrite of an skb data structure may occur, which allows local users to cause a     denial of service (system crash) via crafted system calls. (CVE-2017-9242)

  - Multiple race conditions in the ext4 filesystem implementation in the Linux kernel before 4.5 allow local     users to cause a denial of service (disk corruption) by writing to a page that is associated with a     different user's file after unsynchronized hole punching and page-fault handling. (CVE-2015-8839)

  - Multiple memory leaks in error paths in fs/xfs/xfs_attr_list.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5.1 allow     local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via crafted XFS filesystem operations.
    (CVE-2016-9685)

  - The NFSv4 server in the Linux kernel before 4.11.3 does not properly validate the layout type when     processing the NFSv4 pNFS GETDEVICEINFO or LAYOUTGET operand in a UDP packet from a remote attacker. This     type value is uninitialized upon encountering certain error conditions. This value is used as an array     index for dereferencing, which leads to an OOPS and eventually a DoS of knfsd and a soft-lockup of the     whole system. (CVE-2017-8797)

  - The sctp_v6_create_accept_sk function in net/sctp/ipv6.c in the Linux kernel through 4.11.1 mishandles     inheritance, which allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other     impact via crafted system calls, a related issue to CVE-2017-8890. (CVE-2017-9075)
