security FreeBSD Security Advisory - FreeBSD-SA-19:08.rack By packetstormsecurity.com Published On :: Fri, 21 Jun 2019 18:32:22 GMT FreeBSD Security Advisory - While processing acknowledgements, the RACK code uses several linked lists to maintain state entries. A malicious attacker can cause the lists to grow unbounded. This can cause an expensive list traversal on every packet being processed, leading to resource exhaustion and a denial of service. An attacker with the ability to send specially crafted TCP traffic to a victim system can degrade network performance and/or consume excessive CPU by exploiting the inefficiency of traversing the potentially very large RACK linked lists with relatively small bandwidth cost.

security FreeBSD Security Advisory - FreeBSD-SA-19:11.cd_ioctl By packetstormsecurity.com Published On :: Wed, 03 Jul 2019 18:23:20 GMT FreeBSD Security Advisory - To implement one particular ioctl, the Linux emulation code used a special interface present in the cd(4) driver which allows it to copy subchannel information directly to a kernel address. This interface was erroneously made accessible to userland, allowing users with read access to a cd(4) device to arbitrarily overwrite kernel memory when some media is present in the device. A user in the operator group can make use of this interface to gain root privileges on a system with a cd(4) device when some media is present in the device. Full Article

security FreeBSD Security Advisory - FreeBSD-SA-19:12.telnet By packetstormsecurity.com Published On :: Wed, 24 Jul 2019 14:02:22 GMT FreeBSD Security Advisory - Insufficient validation of environment variables in the telnet client supplied in FreeBSD can lead to stack-based buffer overflows. A stack-based overflow is present in the handling of environment variables when connecting via the telnet client to remote telnet servers. This issue only affects the telnet client. Inbound telnet sessions to telnetd(8) are not affected by this issue. These buffer overflows may be triggered when connecting to a malicious server, or by an active attacker in the network path between the client and server. Specially crafted TELNET command sequences may cause the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking telnet(1). Full Article

A user who can invoke 32-bit FreeBSD ioctls may be able to read the contents of small portions of kernel memory. Such memory might contain sensitive information, such as portions of the file cache or terminal buffers. This information might be directly useful, or it might be leveraged to obtain elevated privileges in some way; for example, a terminal buffer might include a user-entered password. Full Article

security FreeBSD Security Advisory - FreeBSD-SA-19:18.bzip2 By packetstormsecurity.com Published On :: Tue, 06 Aug 2019 21:16:44 GMT FreeBSD Security Advisory - The decompressor used in bzip2 contains a bug which can lead to an out-of-bounds write when processing a specially crafted bzip2(1) file. bzip2recover contains a heap use-after-free bug which can be triggered when processing a specially crafted bzip2(1) file. An attacker who can cause maliciously crafted input to be processed may trigger either of these bugs. The bzip2recover bug may cause a crash, permitting a denial-of-service. The bzip2 decompressor bug could potentially be exploited to execute arbitrary code. Note that some utilities, including the tar(1) archiver and the bspatch(1) binary patching utility (used in portsnap(8) and freebsd-update(8)) decompress bzip2(1)-compressed data internally; system administrators should assume that their systems will at some point decompress bzip2(1)-compressed data even if they never explicitly invoke the bunzip2(1) utility.

security FreeBSD Security Advisory - FreeBSD-SA-19:21.bhyve By packetstormsecurity.com Published On :: Tue, 06 Aug 2019 21:18:57 GMT FreeBSD Security Advisory - The e1000 network adapters permit a variety of modifications to an Ethernet packet when it is being transmitted. These include the insertion of IP and TCP checksums, insertion of an Ethernet VLAN header, and TCP segmentation offload ("TSO"). The e1000 device model uses an on-stack buffer to generate the modified packet header when simulating these modifications on transmitted packets. When TCP segmentation offload is requested for a transmitted packet, the e1000 device model used a guest-provided value to determine the size of the on-stack buffer without validation. The subsequent header generation could overflow an incorrectly sized buffer or indirect a pointer composed of stack garbage. A misbehaving bhyve guest could overwrite memory in the bhyve process on the host. Full Article

security FreeBSD Security Advisory - FreeBSD-SA-19:23.midi By packetstormsecurity.com Published On :: Wed, 21 Aug 2019 19:35:17 GMT FreeBSD Security Advisory - The kernel driver for /dev/midistat implements a handler for read(2). This handler is not thread-safe, and a multi-threaded program can exploit races in the handler to cause it to copy out kernel memory outside the boundaries of midistat's data buffer. The races allow a program to read kernel memory within a 4GB window centered at midistat's data buffer. The buffer is allocated each time the device is opened, so an attacker is not limited to a static 4GB region of memory. On 32-bit platforms, an attempt to trigger the race may cause a page fault in kernel mode, leading to a panic. Full Article
