Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.844041
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-4008-2)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'apparmor' package(s) announced via the USN-4008-2 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'apparmor' package(s) announced via the USN-4008-2 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
USN-4008-1 fixed multiple security issues in the Linux kernel. This update
provides the corresponding changes to AppArmor policy for correctly
operating under the Linux kernel with fixes for CVE-2019-11190. Without
these changes, some profile transitions may be unintentionally denied due
to missing mmap ('m') rules.

Original advisory details:

Robert Swiecki discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly apply
Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) in some situations for setuid elf
binaries. A local attacker could use this to improve the chances of
exploiting an existing vulnerability in a setuid elf binary.
(CVE-2019-11190)

It was discovered that a null pointer dereference vulnerability existed in
the LSI Logic MegaRAID driver in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could
use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2019-11810)

It was discovered that a race condition leading to a use-after-free existed
in the Reliable Datagram Sockets (RDS) protocol implementation in the Linux
kernel. The RDS protocol is disabled via blocklist by default in Ubuntu. If
enabled, a local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service
(system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2019-11815)

Federico Manuel Bento discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly
apply Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) in some situations for
setuid a.out binaries. A local attacker could use this to improve the
chances of exploiting an existing vulnerability in a setuid a.out binary.
(CVE-2019-11191)

As a hardening measure, this update disables a.out support.

Affected Software/OS:
'apparmor' package(s) on Ubuntu 16.04.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
