Ubuntu Security Notice 3338-2 - USN-3338-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel. However, the fix for CVE-2017-1000364 introduced regressions for some Java applications. This update addresses the issue. It was discovered that the stack guard page for processes in the Linux kernel was not sufficiently large enough to prevent overlapping with the heap. An attacker could leverage this with another vulnerability to execute arbitrary code and gain administrative privileges Various other issues were also addressed.

This Metasploit module attempts to exploit a netfilter bug on Linux Kernels before 4.6.3, and currently only works against Ubuntu 16.04 (not 16.04.1) with kernel 4.4.0-21-generic. Several conditions have to be met for successful exploitation.

This Metasploit module attempts to exploit a netfilter bug on Linux Kernels befoe 4.6.3, and currently only works against Ubuntu 16.04 (not 16.04.1) with kernel 4.4.0-21-generic. Several conditions have to be met for successful exploitation: Ubuntu: 1. ip_tables.ko (ubuntu), iptable_raw (fedora) has to be loaded (root running iptables -L will do such) 2. libc6-dev-i386 (ubuntu), glibc-devel.i686

Red Hat Security Advisory 2016-1847-01 - The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. Security Fix: A security flaw was found in the Linux kernel in the mark_source_chains() function in "net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.c". It is possible for a user-supplied "ipt_entry" structure to have a large "next_offset" field. This field is not bounds checked prior to writing to a counter value at the supplied offset.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2016-1875-01 - The kernel-rt packages provide the Real Time Linux Kernel, which enables fine-tuning for systems with extremely high determinism requirements. The kernel-rt packages have been upgraded to the kernel-3.10.0-327.36.1 source tree, which provides a number of bug fixes over the previous version.

Ubuntu Security Notice 3016-4 - USN-3016-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. This update provides the corresponding updates for the Linux Hardware Enablement (HWE) kernel from Ubuntu 16.04 LTS for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. Jesse Hertz and Tim Newsham discovered that the Linux netfilter implementation did not correctly perform validation when handling 32 bit compatibility IPT_SO_SET_REPLACE events on 64 bit platforms. A local unprivileged attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or execute arbitrary code with administrative privileges. Various other issues were also addressed.
