Security Bulletin
Summary
The [All] linux (Kernel) package is used by IBM Integrated Analytics System . IBM Integrated Analytics System has addressed the applicable CVE[CVE-2021-47301, CVE-2024-27070].
Vulnerability Details
CVEID: CVE-2021-47301
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
igb: Fix use-after-free error during reset
Cleans the next descriptor to watch (next_to_watch) when cleaning the
TX ring.
Failure to do so can cause invalid memory accesses. If igb_poll() runs
while the controller is reset this can lead to the driver try to free
a skb that was already freed.
(The crash is harder to reproduce with the igb driver, but the same
potential problem exists as the code is identical to igc)
CWE: CWE-416: Use After Free
CVSS Source: NVD
CVSS Base score: 7.8
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2024-27070
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: fix to avoid use-after-free issue in f2fs_filemap_fault
syzbot reports a f2fs bug as below:

The root cause is: in f2fs_filemap_fault(), vmf->vma may be not alive after
filemap_fault(), so it may cause use-after-free issue when accessing
vmf->vma->vm_flags in trace_f2fs_filemap_fault(). So it needs to keep vm_flags
in separated temporary variable for tracepoint use.

Disclaimer
According to the Forum of Incident Response and Security Teams (FIRST), the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is an "industry open standard designed to convey vulnerability severity and help to determine urgency and priority of response." IBM PROVIDES THE CVSS SCORES ""AS IS"" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. CUSTOMERS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ASSESSING THE IMPACT OF ANY ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL SECURITY VULNERABILITY. In addition to other efforts to address potential vulnerabilities, IBM periodically updates the record of components contained in our product offerings. As part of that effort, if IBM identifies previously unidentified packages in a product/service inventory, we address relevant vulnerabilities regardless of CVE date. Inclusion of an older CVEID does not demonstrate that the referenced product has been used by IBM since that date, nor that IBM was aware of a vulnerability as of that date. We are making clients aware of relevant vulnerabilities as we become aware of them. "Affected Products and Versions" referenced in IBM Security Bulletins are intended to be only products and versions that are supported by IBM and have not passed their end-of-support or warranty date. Thus, failure to reference unsupported or extended-support products and versions in this Security Bulletin does not constitute a determination by IBM that they are unaffected by the vulnerability. Reference to one or more unsupported versions in this Security Bulletin shall not create an obligation for IBM to provide fixes for any unsupported or extended-support products or versions.
