important
An update for gnutls/grub2 is now available for NewStart CGSL MAIN 6.06.
NewStart Security has rated this update as having a security impact of important. A Common Vunlnerability Scoring System(CVSS)base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVElink(s) in the References section.
gnutls: GnuTLS is a secure communications library implementing the SSL, TLS and DTLS protocols and technologies around them. It provides a simple C language application programming interface (API) to access the secure communications protocols as well as APIs to parse and write X.509, PKCS #12, OpenPGP and other required structures.
grub2: This package provides some directories which are required by various grub2 subpackages.
Security Fix(es):
gnutls: A flaw was found in gnutls. A use after free issue in client_send_params in lib/ext/pre_shared_key.c may lead to memory corruption and other potential consequences.(CVE-2021-20232)
gnutls: A flaw was found in gnutls. A use after free issue in client sending key_share extension may lead to memory corruption and other consequences.(CVE-2021-20231)
gnutls: A flaw was found in GnuTLS, where the server can trigger the client to run into heap buffer overflow if a no_renegotiation alert is sent in an unexpected timing. This flaw allows the client to crash at the session deinitialization timing. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.(CVE-2020-24659)
gnutls: A vulnerability was found in gnutls. This issue is due to a double-free error that occurs during the verification of pkcs7 signatures in the gnutls_pkcs7_verify function.(CVE-2022-2509)
gnutls: bugfix
grub2: A flaw was found in grub2 when handling JPEG images. This flaw allows an attacker to craft a malicious JPEG image, which leads to an underflow on a grub2's internal pointer, leading to a heap-based out-of-bounds write. Secure-boot mechanisms circumvention and arbitrary code execution may also be achievable.(CVE-2021-3697)
grub2: A flaw was found in grub2. Setparam_prefix() in the menu rendering code performs a length calculation on the assumption that expressing a quoted single quote will require 3 characters, while it actually requires 4 characters which allows an attacker to corrupt memory by one byte for each quote in the input. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.(CVE-2021-20233)
grub2: A flaw was found in grub2. During USB device initialization, descriptors are read with very little bounds checking and assumes the USB device is providing sane values. If properly exploited, an attacker could trigger memory corruption leading to arbitrary code execution allowing a bypass of the Secure Boot mechanism. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.(CVE-2020-25647)
grub2: A flaw was found in grub2 when handling IPv4 packets. This flaw allows an attacker to craft a malicious packet, triggering an integer underflow in grub code. Consequently, the memory allocation for handling the packet data may be smaller than the size needed. This issue causes an out-of-bands write during packet handling, compromising data integrity, confidentiality issues, a denial of service, and remote code execution.(CVE-2022-28733)
grub2: A flaw was found in shim during the handling of EFI executables. A crafted EFI image can lead to an overflow in shim. This flaw allows an attacker to perform an out-of-bounds write in memory. A successful attack can lead to data integrity, confidentiality issues, and arbitrary code execution.(CVE-2022-28737)
grub2: A flaw was found in grub 2, where a crafted 16-bit grayscale PNG image may lead to an out-of-bounds write. This flaw allows an attacker to corrupt the data on the heap portion of the grub2's memory, leading to possible code execution and the circumvention of the secure boot mechanism.(CVE-2021-3695)
grub2: A flaw in grub2 was found where its configuration file, known as grub.cfg, is being created with the wrong permission set allowing non privileged users to read its content. This represents a low severity confidentiality issue, as those users can eventually read any encrypted passwords present in grub.cfg.(CVE-2021-3981)
grub2: A flaw was found in grub2. The rmmod implementation allows the unloading of a module used as a dependency without checking if any other dependent module is still loaded leading to a use-after-free scenario. This could allow arbitrary code to be executed or a bypass of Secure Boot protections. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.(CVE-2020-25632)
grub2: A use-after-free vulnerability was found on grub2's chainloader command. This flaw allows an attacker to gain access to restricted data or cause arbitrary code execution if they can establish control from grub's memory allocation pattern.(CVE-2022-28736)
grub2: A flaw was found in grub2. The shim_lock verifier from grub2 allows non-kernel files to be loaded when secure boot is enabled, giving the possibility of unverified code or modules to be loaded when it should not be allowed.(CVE-2022-28735)
grub2: A flaw was found in GRUB 2, where it incorrectly enables the usage of the ACPI command when Secure Boot is enabled. This flaw allows an attacker with privileged access to craft a Secondary System Description Table (SSDT) containing code to overwrite the Linux kernel lockdown variable content directly into memory. The table is further loaded and executed by the kernel, defeating its Secure Boot lockdown and allowing the attacker to load unsigned code. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity, as well as system availability.(CVE-2020-14372)
grub2: A flaw was found in grub2. The option parser allows an attacker to write past the end of a heap-allocated buffer by calling certain commands with a large number of specific short forms of options. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.(CVE-2021-20225)
grub2: A flaw was found in grub2. Variable names present are expanded in the supplied command line into their corresponding variable contents, using a 1kB stack buffer for temporary storage, without sufficient bounds checking. If the function is called with a command line that references a variable with a sufficiently large payload, it is possible to overflow the stack buffer, corrupt the stack frame and control execution which could also circumvent Secure Boot protections. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.(CVE-2020-27749)
grub2: A flaw was found in grub2 when handling a PNG image header. When decoding the data contained in the Huffman table at the PNG file header, an out-of-bounds write may happen on grub's heap.(CVE-2021-3696)
grub2: A flaw was found in grub2. The cutmem command does not honor secure boot locking allowing an privileged attacker to remove address ranges from memory creating an opportunity to circumvent SecureBoot protections after proper triage about grub's memory layout. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.(CVE-2020-27779)
grub2: A flaw was found in grub2 when handling split HTTP headers. While processing a split HTTP header, grub2 wrongly advances its control pointer to the internal buffer by one position, which can lead to an out-of-bounds write. This flaw allows an attacker to leverage this issue by crafting a malicious set of HTTP packages making grub2 corrupt its internal memory metadata structure. This leads to data integrity and confidentiality issues or forces grub to crash, resulting in a denial of service attack.(CVE-2022-28734)
