Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.844758
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-4659-2)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'linux, linux-aws, linux-azure, linux-gcp, linux-kvm, linux-oracle, linux-raspi' package(s) announced via the USN-4659-2 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'linux, linux-aws, linux-azure, linux-gcp, linux-kvm, linux-oracle, linux-raspi' package(s) announced via the USN-4659-2 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
USN-4659-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel. Unfortunately,
that update introduced a regression in the software raid10 driver
when used with fstrim that could lead to data corruption. This update
fixes the problem.

Original advisory details:

It was discovered that a race condition existed in the binder IPC
implementation in the Linux kernel, leading to a use-after-free
vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service
(system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2020-0423)

Daniele Antonioli, Nils Ole Tippenhauer, and Kasper Rasmussen discovered
that legacy pairing and secure-connections pairing authentication in the
Bluetooth protocol could allow an unauthenticated user to complete
authentication without pairing credentials via adjacent access. A
physically proximate attacker could use this to impersonate a previously
paired Bluetooth device. (CVE-2020-10135)

It was discovered that a race condition existed in the perf subsystem of
the Linux kernel, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. An attacker
with access to the perf subsystem could use this to cause a denial of
service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2020-14351)

Keyu Man discovered that the ICMP global rate limiter in the Linux kernel
could be used to assist in scanning open UDP ports. A remote attacker could
use to facilitate attacks on UDP based services that depend on source port
randomization. (CVE-2020-25705)

It was discovered that the KVM hypervisor in the Linux kernel did not
properly handle interrupts in certain situations. A local attacker in a
guest VM could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (host system
crash). (CVE-2020-27152)

It was discovered that the framebuffer implementation in the Linux kernel
did not properly perform range checks in certain situations. A local
attacker could use this to expose sensitive information (kernel memory).
(CVE-2020-28915)

It was discovered that Power 9 processors could be coerced to expose
information from the L1 cache in certain situations. A local attacker could
use this to expose sensitive information. (CVE-2020-4788)

Affected Software/OS:
'linux, linux-aws, linux-azure, linux-gcp, linux-kvm, linux-oracle, linux-raspi' package(s) on Ubuntu 20.10.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
