io_uring Same Type Object Reuse Privilege Escalation

This Metasploit module exploits a bug in io_uring leading to an additional put_cred() that can be exploited to hijack credentials of other processes. This exploit will spawn SUID programs to get the freed cred object reallocated by a privileged process and abuse them to create a SUID root binary that will pop a shell. The dangling cred pointer will, however, lead to a kernel panic as soon as the task terminates and its credentials are destroyed. We therefore detach from the controlling terminal, block all signals and rest in silence until the system shuts down and we get killed hard, just to cry in vain, seeing the kernel collapse. The bug affected kernels from v5.12-rc3 to v5.14-rc7. More than 1 CPU is required for exploitation. Successfully tested against Ubuntu 22.04.01 with kernel 5.13.12-051312-generic.

vmwgfx Driver File Descriptor Handling Privilege Escalation

If the vmwgfx driver fails to copy the fence_rep object to userland, it tries to recover by deallocating the (already populated) file descriptor. This is wrong, as the fd gets released via put_unused_fd() which shouldn't be used, as the fd table slot was already populated via the previous call to fd_install(). This leaves userland with a valid fd table entry pointing to a freed file object. The authors use this bug to overwrite a SUID binary with their payload and gain root. Linux kernel versions 4.14-rc1 - 5.17-rc1 are vulnerable. Successfully tested against Ubuntu 22.04.01 with kernel 5.13.12-051312-generic.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-4781-2

Ubuntu Security Notice 4781-2 - USN-4781-1 fixed several vulnerabilities in Slurm. This update provides the corresponding updates for Ubuntu 14.04 ESM and Ubuntu 16.04 ESM. It was discovered that Slurm incorrectly handled certain messages between the daemon and the user. An attacker could possibly use this issue to assume control of an arbitrary file on the system. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 ESM.
