Security Bulletin
Summary
Linux Kernel as used by IBM QRadar SIEM is vulnerable to Denial of Service
Vulnerability Details
CVEID: CVE-2019-11477
Description: Linux Kernel is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an integer overflow when processing TCP Selective Acknowledgement (SACK) capabilities. By sending specially-crafted SACKs requests, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a kernel panic condition.
CVSS Base Score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/162662 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score: *Undefined
CVSS Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
CVEID: CVE-2019-11478
Description: Linux Kernel is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an issue with fragmenting the TCP retransmission queue when processing TCP Selective Acknowledgement (SACK) capabilities. By sending specially-crafted SACKs requests, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause an excess of system resource usage.
CVSS Base Score: 7.5
