-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 ============================================================================= FreeBSD-SA-20:05.if_oce_ioctl Security Advisory The FreeBSD Project Topic: Insufficient oce(4) ioctl(2) privilege checking Category: core Module: oce(4) Announced: 2020-03-19 Credits: Ilja Van Sprundel Affects: All supported versions of FreeBSD. Corrected: 2019-12-26 16:56:42 UTC (stable/12, 12.1-STABLE) 2020-03-19 16:48:29 UTC (releng/12.1, 12.1-RELEASE-p3) 2019-12-26 16:58:11 UTC (stable/11, 11.3-STABLE) 2020-03-19 16:48:29 UTC (releng/11.3, 11.3-RELEASE-p7) CVE Name: CVE-2019-15876 For general information regarding FreeBSD Security Advisories, including descriptions of the fields above, security branches, and the following sections, please visit . I. Background The primary interface used for network driver configuration is ioctl(2). Several ioctl(2) commands are reserved for driver-specific purposes. For instance, a driver may use one of these ioctls to implement an interface for updating device firmware. II. Problem Description The driver-specific ioctl(2) command handlers in oce(4) failed to check whether the caller has sufficient privileges to perform the corresponding operation. III. Impact The oce(4) handler permits unprivileged users to send passthrough commands to device firmware. IV. Workaround No workaround is available. Systems that do not contain devices driven by oce(4) are unaffected. V. Solution Upgrade your vulnerable system to a supported FreeBSD stable or release / security branch (releng) dated after the correction date, and reboot. Perform one of the following: 1) To update your vulnerable system via a binary patch: Systems running a RELEASE version of FreeBSD on the i386 or amd64 platforms can be updated via the freebsd-update(8) utility: # freebsd-update fetch # freebsd-update install # shutdown -r +10min "Rebooting for a security update" 2) To update your vulnerable system via a source code patch: The following patches have been verified to apply to the applicable FreeBSD release branches. a) Download the relevant patch from the location below, and verify the detached PGP signature using your PGP utility. # fetch https://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-20:05/if_oce_ioctl.patch # fetch https://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-20:05/if_oce_ioctl.patch.asc # gpg --verify if_oce_ioctl.patch.asc b) Apply the patch. Execute the following commands as root: # cd /usr/src # patch < /path/to/patch c) Recompile your kernel as described in and reboot the system. VI. Correction details The following list contains the correction revision numbers for each affected branch. Branch/path Revision - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- stable/12/ r356089 releng/12.1/ r359139 stable/11/ r356090 releng/11.3/ r359139 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- To see which files were modified by a particular revision, run the following command, replacing NNNNNN with the revision number, on a machine with Subversion installed: # svn diff -cNNNNNN --summarize svn://svn.freebsd.org/base Or visit the following URL, replacing NNNNNN with the revision number: VII.
