    Summary: linux, linux-gcp, linux-gcp-5.15, linux-lowlatency, linux-lowlatency-hwe-5.15, linux-xilinx-zynqmp vulnerabilities

    Details: It was discovered that the ATA over Ethernet (AoE) driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-6270) It was discovered that the Atheros 802.11ac wireless driver did not properly validate certain data structures, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. An attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2023-7042) It was discovered that the HugeTLB file system component of the Linux Kernel contained a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability. A privileged attacker could possibly use this to to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2024-0841) It was discovered that the Intel Data Streaming and Intel Analytics Accelerator drivers in the Linux kernel allowed direct access to the devices for unprivileged users and virtual machines. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2024-21823) Yuxuan Hu discovered that the Bluetooth RFCOMM protocol driver in the Linux Kernel contained a race condition, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. An attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2024-22099) It was discovered that the MediaTek SoC Gigabit Ethernet driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition when stopping the device. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (device unavailability). (CVE-2024-27432) Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems: - ARM32 architecture; - RISC-V architecture; - x86 architecture; - ACPI drivers; - Block layer subsystem; - Clock framework and drivers; - CPU frequency scaling framework; - Cryptographic API; - DMA engine subsystem; - EFI core; - GPU drivers; - InfiniBand drivers; - IOMMU subsystem; - Multiple devices driver; - Media drivers; - MMC subsystem; - Network drivers; - NTB driver; - NVME drivers; - PCI subsystem; - MediaTek PM domains; - Power supply drivers; - SPI subsystem; - Media staging drivers; - TCM subsystem; - USB subsystem; - Framebuffer layer; - AFS file system; - File systems infrastructure; - BTRFS file system; - EROFS file system; - Ext4 file system; - F2FS file system; - Network file system client; - NTFS3 file system; - Diskquota system; - SMB network file system; - BPF subsystem; - Netfilter; - TLS protocol; - io_uring subsystem; - Bluetooth subsystem; - Memory management; - Ethernet bridge; - Networking core; - HSR network protocol; - IPv4 networking; - IPv6 networking; - L2TP protocol; - MAC80211 subsystem; - Multipath TCP; - Netlink; - NET/ROM layer; - Packet sockets; - RDS protocol; - Sun RPC protocol; - Unix domain sockets; - Wireless networking; - USB sound devices; (CVE-2024-26776, CVE-2024-26802, CVE-2024-26790, CVE-2024-27388, CVE-2024-27077, CVE-2024-26884, CVE-2024-26779, CVE-2024-26897, CVE-2024-27045, CVE-2024-26851, CVE-2024-27065, CVE-2024-26843, CVE-2024-26743, CVE-2024-27052, CVE-2024-26855, CVE-2024-27436, CVE-2024-27078, CVE-2024-26898, CVE-2024-27405, CVE-2024-26894, CVE-2024-26584, CVE-2024-26915, CVE-2024-26763, CVE-2024-27047, CVE-2024-26809, CVE-2024-26883, CVE-2024-26901, CVE-2024-27412, CVE-2024-26803, CVE-2024-26751, CVE-2024-35829, CVE-2024-27432, CVE-2023-52447, CVE-2024-26748, CVE-2024-27051, CVE-2023-52434, CVE-2024-26749, CVE-2024-27034, CVE-2024-27390, CVE-2024-26879, CVE-2024-26859, CVE-2024-26835, CVE-2024-26861, CVE-2024-27030, CVE-2024-27415, CVE-2023-52656, CVE-2024-26773, CVE-2024-27043, CVE-2024-26601, CVE-2024-27073, CVE-2024-26782, CVE-2024-27413, CVE-2024-26880, CVE-2024-26793, CVE-2024-26766, CVE-2024-26750, CVE-2024-26852, CVE-2024-26805, CVE-2024-35830, CVE-2024-26798, CVE-2023-52644, CVE-2024-26787, CVE-2024-26846, CVE-2024-26857, CVE-2024-26752, CVE-2024-26792, CVE-2023-52641, CVE-2024-26771, CVE-2024-26736, CVE-2024-27417, CVE-2024-26840, CVE-2024-26838, CVE-2024-26820, CVE-2024-26778, CVE-2024-26688, CVE-2024-27403, CVE-2024-26862, CVE-2024-27038, CVE-2024-26839, CVE-2024-26889, CVE-2024-26774, CVE-2024-26907, CVE-2023-52645, CVE-2024-27431, CVE-2024-27410, CVE-2024-27416, CVE-2024-26795, CVE-2023-52497, CVE-2024-27419, CVE-2024-26744, CVE-2024-26833, CVE-2024-26735, CVE-2024-26651, CVE-2024-27074, CVE-2023-52652, CVE-2024-27044, CVE-2024-26733, CVE-2024-26659, CVE-2024-35811, CVE-2024-27053, CVE-2024-27037, CVE-2023-52620, CVE-2024-26882, CVE-2024-35828, CVE-2024-26856, CVE-2024-26881, CVE-2024-27075, CVE-2024-26583, CVE-2023-52662, CVE-2024-26788, CVE-2024-26903, CVE-2024-26870, CVE-2024-26777, CVE-2024-26874, CVE-2024-26906, CVE-2024-26872, CVE-2024-26895, CVE-2024-26845, CVE-2024-27024, CVE-2024-27076, CVE-2024-26603, CVE-2024-27054, CVE-2024-26754, CVE-2024-35844, CVE-2024-26764, CVE-2024-26885, CVE-2024-26772, CVE-2024-26804, CVE-2024-26585, CVE-2024-26791, CVE-2024-27414, CVE-2024-26878, CVE-2024-26816, CVE-2024-27046, CVE-2024-26891, CVE-2024-26875, CVE-2024-26747, CVE-2024-26863, CVE-2023-52640, CVE-2023-52650, CVE-2024-27039, CVE-2024-26877, CVE-2024-26801, CVE-2024-35845, CVE-2024-26769, CVE-2024-27028, CVE-2024-26737)
