Description
Jann Horn discovered that the Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF) implementation
in Linux Kernel did not properly check the relationship between pointer
values and the BPF stack. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial
of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2017-17863)
Jann Horn discovered that the Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF) implementation
in Linux Kernel improperly performed sign extension in some situations.
A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash)
or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-16995)
Alexei Starovoitov discovered that the Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF)
implementation in Linux Kernel contained a branch-pruning logic issue
around unreachable code. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial
of service. (CVE-2017-17862)
Jann Horn discovered that the Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF) implementation
in Linux Kernel mishandled pointer data values in some situations. A
local attacker could use this to to expose sensitive information (kernel
memory). (CVE-2017-17864)
