Arch Linux Security Advisory ASA-201905-4
=========================================
Severity: High
Date : 2019-05-06
CVE-ID : CVE-2019-11683
Package : linux-zen
Type : arbitrary code execution
Remote : Yes
Link : https://security.archlinux.org/AVG-957
Summary
=======
The package linux-zen before version 5.0.12.zen2-1 is vulnerable to
arbitrary code execution.
Resolution
==========
Upgrade to 5.0.12.zen2-1.
# pacman -Syu "linux-zen>=5.0.12.zen2-1"
The problem has been fixed upstream in version 5.0.12.zen2.
Workaround
==========
None.
Description
===========
udp_gro_receive_segment in net/ipv4/udp_offload.c in the Linux kernel
5.x through 5.0.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(slab-out-of-bounds memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified
other impact via UDP packets with a 0 payload, because of mishandling
of padded packets, aka the "GRO packet of death" issue.
Impact
======
A remote attacker is able to cause a denial of service possibly leading
to remote code execution by sending UDP packets with a special payload.
