Synopsis: Important: kernel security and bug fix update
Advisory ID: RHSA-2015:0726-01
Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2015-0726.html
Issue date: 2015-03-26
CVE Names: CVE-2014-8159 CVE-2015-1421
=====================================================================

1. Summary:

Updated kernel packages that fix two security issues and several bugs are
now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Important security
impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give
detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the
CVE links in the References section.

3. Description:

The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux
operating system.

* It was found that the Linux kernel’s Infiniband subsystem did not
properly sanitize input parameters while registering memory regions from
user space via the (u)verbs API. A local user with access to a
/dev/infiniband/uverbsX device could use this flaw to crash the system or,
potentially, escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2014-8159,
Important)

* A use-after-free flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel’s SCTP
implementation handled authentication key reference counting during INIT
collisions. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash the system or,
potentially, escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2015-1421,
Important)

Red Hat would like to thank Mellanox for reporting the CVE-2014-8159 issue.
The CVE-2015-1421 issue was discovered by Sun Baoliang of Red Hat.

This update also fixes the following bugs:

* In certain systems with multiple CPUs, when a crash was triggered on one
CPU with an interrupt handler and this CPU sent Non-Maskable Interrupt
(NMI) to another CPU, and, at the same time, ioapic_lock had already been
acquired, a deadlock occurred in ioapic_lock. As a consequence, the kdump
service could become unresponsive. This bug has been fixed and kdump now
works as expected. (BZ#1197742)

* On Lenovo X1 Carbon 3rd Gen, X250, and T550 laptops, the thinkpad_acpi
module was not properly loaded, and thus the function keys and radio
switches did not work. This update applies a new string pattern of BIOS
version, which fixes this bug, and function keys and radio switches now
work as intended. (BZ#1197743)

* During a heavy file system load involving many worker threads, all worker
threads in the pool became blocked on a resource, and no manager thread
existed to create more workers. As a consequence, the running processes
became unresponsive. With this update, the logic around manager creation
has been changed to assure that the last worker thread becomes a manager
thread and does not start executing work items. Now, a manager thread
exists, spawns new workers as needed, and processes no longer hang.
(BZ#1197744)

* If a thin-pool’s metadata enters read-only or fail mode, for example, due
to thin-pool running out of metadata or data space, any attempt to make
metadata changes such as creating a thin device or snapshot thin device
should error out cleanly. However, previously, the kernel code returned
verbose and alarming error messages to the user. With this update, due to
early trapping of attempt to make metadata changes, informative errors are
displayed, no longer unnecessarily alarming the user. (BZ#1197745)

* When running Red Hat Enterprise Linux as a guest on Microsoft Hyper-V
hypervisor, the storvsc module did not return the correct error code for
the upper level Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) subsystem. As a
consequence, a SCSI command failed and storvsc did not handle such a
failure properly under some conditions, for example, when RAID devices were
created on top of storvsc devices. An upstream patch has been applied to
fix this bug, and storvsc now returns the correct error code in the
described situation. (BZ#1197749)

All kernel users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain backported patches to correct these issues. The system must be
rebooted for this update to take effect.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

For details on how to apply this update, refer to:

https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258

5. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/):

1181166 – CVE-2014-8159 kernel: infiniband: uverbs: unprotected physical memory access
1196581 – CVE-2015-1421 kernel: net: slab corruption from use after free on INIT collisions

Red Hat Security Advisory

Synopsis: Important: kernel-rt security and bug fix update
Advisory ID: RHSA-2015:0727-01
Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2015-0727.html
Issue date: 2015-03-26
CVE Names: CVE-2014-8159 CVE-2015-1421
=====================================================================

1. Summary:

Updated kernel-rt packages that fix two security issues and several bugs
are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Realtime (v. 7) – noarch, x86_64

3. Description:

The kernel-rt packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux
operating system.

Red Hat would like to thank Mellanox for reporting the CVE-2014-8159 issue.
The CVE-2015-1421 issue was discovered by Sun Baoliang of Red Hat.

The kernel-rt packages have been upgraded to version 3.10.0-229.1.2, which
provides a number of bug fixes over the previous version, including:

* The kdump service could become unresponsive due to a deadlock in the
kernel call ioapic_lock.

* Attempt to make metadata changes such as creating a thin device or
snapshot thin device did not error out cleanly.

(BZ#1203359)

All kernel-rt users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
correct these issues. The system must be rebooted for this update to take
effect.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

For details on how to apply this update, refer to:

https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258

5. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/):

1181166 – CVE-2014-8159 kernel: infiniband: uverbs: unprotected physical memory access
