Уязвимость функций copy_page_to_iter_pipe и push_pipe ядра операционной системы Linux, позволяющая нарушителю перезаписать содержимое страничного кэша произвольных файлов

Уязвимость драйвера ядра операционной системы Linux для устройств USB 2.0/3.0 Gigabit Ethernet на базе ASIX AX88179_178A, позволяющая нарушителю получить потенциально конфиденциальную информацию

A flaw was found in the way the "flags" member of the new pipe buffer structure was lacking proper initialization in copy_page_to_iter_pipe and push_pipe functions in the Linux kernel and could thus contain stale values. An unprivileged local user could use this flaw to write to pages in the page cache backed by read only files and as such escalate their privileges on the system.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s driver for the ASIX AX88179_178A-based USB 2.0/3.0 Gigabit Ethernet Devices. The vulnerability contains multiple out-of-bounds reads and possible out-of-bounds writes.
