​​Canonical released new Linux kernel security updates for Ubuntu 19.04 (Disco Dingo) and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) operating system series to address various security vulnerabilities.

πŸ”° Addresses various security vulnerabilities and issues
πŸ”°


The new security updates are here to address a race condition (CVE-2019-11599) in Linux kernel when performing core dumps, and an integer overflow (CVE-2019-11487) when referencing counting pages. Both issues affect only Ubuntu 19.04 systems and could allow a local attacker to crash the system by causing a denial of service (DoS attack) or possibly execute arbitrary code.

On Ubuntu 18.04 LTS systems, the new security patch fixes a flaw (CVE-2019-11085) discovered by Adam Zabrocki in Linux kernel's Intel i915 kernel mode graphics driver, which failed to correctly restrict mmap() ranges under certain situations, allowing local attackers to either execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service attack and crash the system.

Moreover, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS systems were affected by a race condition (CVE-2019-11815) discovered in Linux kernel's RDS (Reliable Datagram Sockets) protocol implementation, which is blacklisted by default. If the RDS protocol was enabled, the flaw could allow a local attacker to cause crash the system or execute arbitrary code.

These Linux kernel security updates also address an issue (CVE-2019-11833) discovered in the EXT4 file system, which failed to zero out memory under certain situations, and a problem (CVE-2019-11884) discovered in the Bluetooth Human Interface Device Protocol (HIDP) implementation, which improperly verified strings in certain situations.

These two issues affect both Ubuntu 19.04 and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS systems, and they could allow local attackers to expose sensitive information (kernel memory). The updated Ubuntu 18.04 LTS kernel is also available for users of the Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS (Xenial Xerus) operating system series using the HWE (Hardware Enablement) Linux kernel packages from Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

Users are urged to update their systems immediately
If you're using Ubuntu 19.04, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, or Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS with the HWE kernel from Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, you are urged to update your systems as soon as possible to linux-image 5.0.0-21.22 on Ubuntu 19.04, linux-image 4.15.0-55.60 on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and later systems, as well as to linux-image 4.15.0-55.60~16.04.2 on Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS and later systems.

Please keep in mind that after installing a new Linux kernel version, you will need to reboot your computer and also rebuild and reinstall any third-party kernel modules you might have installed on your Ubuntu machines. To update your Ubuntu installations, please follow the instructions provided by Canonical at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Security/Upgrades or run the command below in the Terminal app.

sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade

Linux Botnet Adding BlueKeep-Flawed Windows RDP Servers to Its Target List

Cybersecurity
researchers have discovered a new variant of WatchBog, a Linux-based cryptocurrency mining malware botnet, which now also includes a module to scan the Internet for Windows RDP servers vulnerable to the Bluekeep flaw.

BlueKeep is a highly-critical, wormable, remote code execution vulnerability in the Windows Remote Desktop Services that could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to take full control over vulnerable systems just by sending specially crafted requests over RDP protocol.

Though the patches for the BlueKeep vulnerability (CVE–2019-0708) was already released by Microsoft in May this year, more than 800,000 Windows machines accessible over the Internet are still vulnerable to the critical flaw.
