Red Hat Security Advisory

Synopsis: Important: kernel security update
Advisory ID: RHSA-2016:1581-01
Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2016-1581.html
Issue date: 2016-08-09
CVE Names: CVE-2016-4565
=====================================================================

1. Summary:

An update for kernel is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4
Advanced Update Support.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact
of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score,
which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability
from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server AUS (v. 6.4) – noarch, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server Optional AUS (v. 6.4) – x86_64

3. Description:

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

Security Fix(es):

* A flaw was found in the way certain interfaces of the Linux kernel’s
Infiniband subsystem used write() as bi-directional ioctl() replacement,
which could lead to insufficient memory security checks when being invoked
using the splice() system call. A local unprivileged user on a system with
either Infiniband hardware present or RDMA Userspace Connection Manager
Access module explicitly loaded, could use this flaw to escalate their
privileges on the system. (CVE-2016-4565)

Red Hat would like to thank Jann Horn for reporting this issue.

4. Solution:

For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes
described in this advisory, refer to:

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

The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect.

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

1310570 – CVE-2016-4565 kernel: infiniband: Unprivileged process can overwrite kernel memory using rdma_ucm.ko
