The implementation of TIOCGSERIAL ioctl(2) does not clear the output |
40 |
+ |
struct before sending to userland in the linux emulation layer. |

Kernel Security updates |
59 |
+ |
|
60 |
+ |
atkbd(4) - Incorrect signedness comparison in the ioctl(2) handler allows a malicious |
61 |
+ |
local user to overwrite a portion of the kernel memory. |
62 |
+ |
|
63 |
+ |
Incorrect argument handling in sendmsg(2) |
64 |
+ |
|
65 |
+ |
Incorrect argument handling in the socket code allows malicious local |
66 |
+ |
user to overwrite large portion of the kernel memory. |

|
68 |
+ |
20160505: |
69 |
+ |
OpenSSL security patch |
70 |
+ |
|
71 |
+ |
The padding check in AES-NI CBC MAC was rewritten to be in constant time |
72 |
+ |
by making sure that always the same bytes are read and compared against |
73 |
+ |
either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer checked that there was |
74 |
+ |
enough data to have both the MAC and padding bytes. [CVE-2016-2107] |
75 |
+ |
|
76 |
+ |
An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for |
77 |
+ |
Base64 encoding of binary data. [CVE-2016-2105] |
78 |
+ |
|
79 |
+ |
An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function, however it is |
80 |
+ |
believed that there can be no overflows in internal code due to this problem. |
81 |
+ |
[CVE-2016-2106] |
82 |
+ |
|
83 |
+ |
When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio() |
84 |
+ |
a short invalid encoding can casuse allocation of large amounts of memory |
85 |
+ |
potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory. |
86 |
+ |
[CVE-2016-2109] |
87 |
+ |
|
88 |
+ |
20160412: |

106 |
+ |
Incorrect argument validation in sysarch(2) |
107 |
+ |
|
108 |
+ |
A special combination of sysarch(2) arguments, specify a request to |
109 |
+ |
uninstall a set of descriptors from the LDT. The start descriptor |
110 |
+ |
is cleared and the number of descriptors are provided. Due to invalid |
111 |
+ |
use of a signed intermediate value in the bounds checking during argument |
112 |
+ |
validity verification, unbound zero'ing of the process LDT and adjacent |
113 |
+ |
memory can be initiated from usermode. |

|
129 |
+ |
The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer dereference |
130 |
+ |
if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS algorithm and absent |
131 |
+ |
mask generation function parameter. [CVE-2015-3194] |
132 |

A lack of proper input checks in the ICMPv6 processing in the SCTP stack |
149 |
+ |
can lead to either a failed kernel assertion or to a NULL pointer |
150 |
+ |
dereference. In either case, a kernel panic will follow. |

164 |
+ |
|
165 |
+ |
20150930: |
166 |
+ |
In rpcbind(8), netbuf structures are copied directly, which would result in |
167 |
+ |
two netbuf structures that reference to one shared address buffer. When one |
168 |
+ |
of the two netbuf structures is freed, access to the other netbuf structure |
169 |
+ |
would result in an undefined result that may crash the rpcbind(8) daemon. |
170 |
+ |
|
171 |
+ |
20150926: |
172 |
+ |
libmport now supports @preexec, @postexec, @preunexec and @postunexec |
173 |
+ |
to replace @exec and @unexec. |
174 |

|
175 |
+ |
pre exec runs afer pre-install scripts but before actual installation |
176 |
+ |
|
177 |
+ |
post exec runs after install but before post install scripts and |
178 |
+ |
pkg message. |
179 |
+ |
|
180 |
+ |
pre unexec runs before pre uninstall scripts |
181 |
