Zephyrproject: Security Vulnerabilities
In updatehub_probe, right after JSON parsing is complete, objects\[1] is accessed from the output structure in two different places. If the JSON contained less than two elements, this access would reference unitialized stack memory. This could result in a crash, denial of service, or possibly an information leak. Provided the fix in CVE-2020-10059 is applied, the attack requires compromise of the server. See NCC-ZEP-030 This issue affects: zephyrproject-rtos zephyr version 2.1.0 and later versions. version 2.2.0 and later versions.

A malicious userspace application can cause a integer overflow and bypass security checks performed by system call handlers. The impact would depend on the underlying system call and can range from denial of service to information leak to memory corruption resulting in code execution within the kernel. See NCC-ZEP-005 This issue affects: zephyrproject-rtos zephyr version 1.14.1 and later versions. version 2.1.0 and later versions.

USB DFU has a potential buffer overflow where the requested length (wLength) is not checked against the buffer size. This could be used by a malicious USB host to exploit the buffer overflow. See NCC-ZEP-002 This issue affects: zephyrproject-rtos zephyr version 1.14.1 and later versions. version 2.1.0 and later versions.

A malformed JSON payload that is received from an UpdateHub server may trigger memory corruption in the Zephyr OS. This could result in a denial of service in the best case, or code execution in the worst case. See NCC-NCC-016 This issue affects: zephyrproject-rtos zephyr version 2.1.0 and later versions. version 2.2.0 and later versions.

The shell subsystem contains a buffer overflow, whereby an adversary with physical access to the device is able to cause a memory corruption, resulting in denial of service or possibly code execution within the Zephyr kernel. See NCC-NCC-019 This issue affects: zephyrproject-rtos zephyr version 1.14.0 and later versions. version 2.1.0 and later versions.

The arm platform-specific code uses a signed integer comparison when validating system call numbers. An attacker who has obtained code execution within a user thread is able to elevate privileges to that of the kernel. See NCC-ZEP-001 This issue affects: zephyrproject-rtos zephyr version 1.14.0 and later versions. version 2.1.0 and later versions.
