There are security vulnerabilities in versions of Linux Kernel that are shipped with versions of IBM Elastic Storage System. A fix for these vulnerabilities is available.
CVEID:CVE-2020-16166
**DESCRIPTION:**Linux Kernel could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by an error related to drivers/char/random.c and kernel/time/timer.c. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information about the internal state of the network RNG.
CVSS Base score: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/186135 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N)
CVEID:CVE-2020-25705
**DESCRIPTION:**Linux Kernel could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by a flaw in the way reply ICMP packets are limited. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to bypass source port UDP randomization to scan open UDP ports.
CVSS Base score: 7.4
