IBM QRadar SIEM: Multiple Vulnerabilities

CVSS 9.8 CRITICAL

Risk Summary

A cleverly devised username might bypass LDAP authentication checks. In LDAP-authenticated Derby installations, this could let an attacker fill up the disk by creating junk Derby databases. In LDAP-authenticated Derby installations, this could also allow the attacker to execute malware which was visible to and executable by the account which booted the Derby server. In LDAP-protected databases which weren't also protected by SQL GRANT/REVOKE authorization, this vulnerability could also let an attacker view and corrupt sensitive data and run sensitive database functions and procedures. Mitigation: Users should upgrade to Java 21 and Derby 10.17.1.0. Alternatively, users who wish to remain on older Java versions should build their own Derby distribution from one of the release families to which the fix was backported: 10.16, 10.15, and 10.14. Those are the releases which correspond, respectively, with Java LTS versions 17, 11, and 8. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: fix use-after-free in ext4_orphan_cleanup I caught a issue as follows: ================================================================== BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in __list_add_valid+0x28/0x1a0 Read of size 8 at addr ffff88814b13f378 by task mount/710 CPU: 1 PID: 710 Comm: mount Not tainted 6.1.0-rc3-next #370 Call Trace: <TASK> dump_stack_lvl+0x73/0x9f print_report+0x25d/0x759 kasan_report+0xc0/0x120 __asan_load8+0x99/0x140 __list_add_valid+0x28/0x1a0 ext4_orphan_cleanup+0x564/0x9d0 [ext4] __ext4_fill_super+0x48e2/0x5300 [ext4] ext4_fill_super+0x19f/0x3a0 [ext4] get_tree_bdev+0x27b/0x450 ext4_get_tree+0x19/0x30 [ext4] vfs_get_tree+0x49/0x150 path_mount+0xaae/0x1350 do_mount+0xe2/0x110 __x64_sys_mount+0xf0/0x190 do_syscall_64+0x35/0x80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd </TASK> [...] ================================================================== Above issue may happen as follows: ------------------------------------- ext4_fill_super ext4_orphan_cleanup --- loop1: assume last_orphan is 12 --- list_add(&EXT4_I(inode)->i_orphan, &EXT4_SB(sb)->s_orphan) ext4_truncate --> return 0 ext4_inode_attach_jinode --> return -ENOMEM iput(inode) --> free inode<12> --- loop2: last_orphan is still 12 --- list_add(&EXT4_I(inode)->i_orphan, &EXT4_SB(sb)->s_orphan); // use inode<12> and trigger UAF To solve this issue, we need to propagate the return value of ext4_inode_attach_jinode() appropriately. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tcp: fix a signed-integer-overflow bug in tcp_add_backlog() The type of sk_rcvbuf and sk_sndbuf in struct sock is int, and in tcp_add_backlog(), the variable limit is caculated by adding sk_rcvbuf, sk_sndbuf and 64 * 1024, it may exceed the max value of int and overflow. This patch reduces the limit budget by halving the sndbuf to solve this issue since ACK packets are much smaller than the payload.
