Summary

sysstat security update

Details

The sysstat package contains various utilities, common to many commercial Unixes, to monitor system performance and usage activity:iostat: reports CPU statistics and input/output statistics for block devices and partitions.mpstat: reports individual or combined processor related statistics.pidstat: reports statistics for Linux tasks (processes) : I/O, CPU, memory, etc.tapestat: reports statistics for tape drives connected to the system.cifsiostat: reports CIFS statistics.Sysstat also contains tools you can schedule via cron or systemd to collect and historize performance and activity data:sar： collects, reports and saves system activity information (see below a list of metrics collected by sar).sadc： is the system activity data collector, used as a backend for sar.sa1： collects and stores binary data in the system activity daily data file. It is a front end to sadc designed to be run from cron or systemd.sa2： writes asummarized daily activity report. It is a front end to sar designed to be run from cron or systemd.sadf： displays data collected by sar in multiple formats (CSV, XML, JSON, etc.) and can be used for data exchange with other programs. This command can also be used to draw graphs for the various activities collected by sar using SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) format.

Security Fix(es):

sysstat is a set of system performance tools for the Linux operating system. On 32 bit systems, in versions 9.1.16 and newer but prior to 12.7.1, allocate_structures contains a size_t overflow in sa_common.c. The allocate_structures function insufficiently checks bounds before arithmetic multiplication, allowing for an overflow in the size allocated for the buffer representing system activities. This issue may lead to Remote Code Execution (RCE). This issue has been patched in version 12.7.1.(CVE-2022-39377)

Severity

9.8 (Critical)

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
