Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.845125
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-5137-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'linux, linux-aws, linux-aws-5.4, linux-azure, linux-azure-5.4, linux-gcp, linux-gcp-5.4, linux-gke, linux-gkeop, linux-gkeop-5.4, linux-hwe-5.4, linux-ibm, linux-kvm' package(s) announced via the USN-5137-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'linux, linux-aws, linux-aws-5.4, linux-azure, linux-azure-5.4, linux-gcp, linux-gcp-5.4, linux-gke, linux-gkeop, linux-gkeop-5.4, linux-hwe-5.4, linux-ibm, linux-kvm' package(s) announced via the USN-5137-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
It was discovered that the f2fs file system in the Linux kernel did not
properly validate metadata in some situations. An attacker could use this
to construct a malicious f2fs image that, when mounted and operated on,
could cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute
arbitrary code. (CVE-2019-19449)

It was discovered that the Infiniband RDMA userspace connection manager
implementation in the Linux kernel contained a race condition leading to a
use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a
denial of service (system crash) or possible execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2020-36385)

Wolfgang Frisch discovered that the ext4 file system implementation in the
Linux kernel contained an integer overflow when handling metadata inode
extents. An attacker could use this to construct a malicious ext4 file
system image that, when mounted, could cause a denial of service (system
crash). (CVE-2021-3428)

Benedict Schlueter discovered that the BPF subsystem in the Linux kernel
did not properly protect against Speculative Store Bypass (SSB) side-
channel attacks in some situations. A local attacker could possibly use
this to expose sensitive information. (CVE-2021-34556)

Piotr Krysiuk discovered that the BPF subsystem in the Linux kernel did not
properly protect against Speculative Store Bypass (SSB) side-channel
attacks in some situations. A local attacker could possibly use this to
expose sensitive information. (CVE-2021-35477)

It was discovered that the btrfs file system in the Linux kernel did not
properly handle removing a non-existent device id. An attacker with
CAP_SYS_ADMIN could use this to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2021-3739)

It was discovered that the Qualcomm IPC Router protocol implementation in
the Linux kernel did not properly validate metadata in some situations. A
local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash)
or expose sensitive information. (CVE-2021-3743)

It was discovered that the virtual terminal (vt) device implementation in
the Linux kernel contained a race condition in its ioctl handling that led
to an out-of-bounds read vulnerability. A local attacker could possibly use
this to expose sensitive information. (CVE-2021-3753)

It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly account for the
memory usage of certain IPC objects. A local attacker could use this to
cause a denial of service (memory exhaustion). (CVE-2021-3759)

It was discovered that the Aspeed Low Pin Count (LPC) Bus Controller
implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly perform boundary checks
in some situations, allowing out-of-bounds write access. A local attacker
could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly
execute arbitrary code. In Ubuntu, this issue only affected systems running
armhf kernels. (CVE-2021-42252)

Affected Software/OS:
'linux, linux-aws, linux-aws-5.4, linux-azure, linux-azure-5.4, linux-gcp, linux-gcp-5.4, linux-gke, linux-gkeop, linux-gkeop-5.4, linux-hwe-5.4, linux-ibm, linux-kvm' package(s) on Ubuntu 18.04, Ubuntu 20.04.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
