Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In September 2024
A vulnerability in the JSON-RPC API feature in Cisco Crosswork Network Services Orchestrator (NSO) and ConfD that is used by the web-based management interfaces of Cisco Optical Site Manager and Cisco RV340 Dual WAN Gigabit VPN Routers could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to modify the configuration of an affected application or device.
This vulnerability is due to improper authorization checks on the API. An attacker with privileges sufficient to access the affected application or device could exploit this vulnerability by sending malicious requests to the JSON-RPC API. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to make unauthorized modifications to the configuration of the affected application or device, including creating new user accounts or elevating their own privileges on an affected system.

A vulnerability in the Dedicated XML Agent feature of Cisco IOS XR Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) on XML TCP listen port 38751.
This vulnerability is due to a lack of proper error validation of ingress XML packets. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a sustained, crafted stream of XML traffic to a targeted device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause XML TCP port 38751 to become unreachable while the attack traffic persists.

A vulnerability in the CLI of Cisco IOS XR Software could allow an authenticated, local attacker to obtain read/write file system access on the underlying operating system of an affected device.
This vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of user arguments that are passed to specific CLI commands. An attacker with a low-privileged account could exploit this vulnerability by using crafted commands at the prompt. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to elevate privileges to root.

A vulnerability in the multicast traceroute version 2 (Mtrace2) feature of Cisco IOS XR Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to exhaust the UDP packet memory of an affected device.
This vulnerability exists because the Mtrace2 code does not properly handle packet memory. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending crafted packets to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to exhaust the incoming UDP packet memory. The affected device would not be able to process higher-level UDP-based protocols packets, possibly causing a denial of service (DoS) condition.
Note: This vulnerability can be exploited using IPv4 or IPv6.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix a kernel verifier crash in stacksafe()
Daniel Hodges reported a kernel verifier crash when playing with sched-ext.
Further investigation shows that the crash is due to invalid memory access
in stacksafe(). More specifically, it is the following code:
if (exact != NOT_EXACT &&
old->stack[spi].slot_type[i % BPF_REG_SIZE] !=
cur->stack[spi].slot_type[i % BPF_REG_SIZE])
return false;
The 'i' iterates old->allocated_stack.
If cur->allocated_stack < old->allocated_stack the out-of-bound
access will happen.
To fix the issue add 'i >= cur->allocated_stack' check such that if
the condition is true, stacksafe() should fail. Otherwise,
cur->stack[spi].slot_type[i % BPF_REG_SIZE] memory access is legal.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/vmalloc: fix page mapping if vm_area_alloc_pages() with high order fallback to order 0
The __vmap_pages_range_noflush() assumes its argument pages** contains
pages with the same page shift. However, since commit e9c3cda4d86e ("mm,
vmalloc: fix high order __GFP_NOFAIL allocations"), if gfp_flags includes
__GFP_NOFAIL with high order in vm_area_alloc_pages() and page allocation
failed for high order, the pages** may contain two different page shifts
(high order and order-0). This could lead __vmap_pages_range_noflush() to
perform incorrect mappings, potentially resulting in memory corruption.
Users might encounter this as follows (vmap_allow_huge = true, 2M is for
PMD_SIZE):
kvmalloc(2M, __GFP_NOFAIL|GFP_X)
__vmalloc_node_range_noprof(vm_flags=VM_ALLOW_HUGE_VMAP)
vm_area_alloc_pages(order=9) ---> order-9 allocation failed and fallback to order-0
vmap_pages_range()
vmap_pages_range_noflush()
__vmap_pages_range_noflush(page_shift = 21) ----> wrong mapping happens
We can remove the fallback code because if a high-order allocation fails,
__vmalloc_node_range_noprof() will retry with order-0. Therefore, it is
unnecessary to fallback to order-0 here. Therefore, fix this by removing
the fallback code.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md/raid1: Fix data corruption for degraded array with slow disk
read_balance() will avoid reading from slow disks as much as possible,
however, if valid data only lands in slow disks, and a new normal disk
is still in recovery, unrecovered data can be read:
raid1_read_request
read_balance
raid1_should_read_first
-> return false
choose_best_rdev
-> normal disk is not recovered, return -1
choose_bb_rdev
-> missing the checking of recovery, return the normal disk
-> read unrecovered data
Root cause is that the checking of recovery is missing in
choose_bb_rdev(). Hence add such checking to fix the problem.
Also fix similar problem in choose_slow_rdev().
