Article contents: o Vulnerability Description o McAfee Product Vulnerability Status o Remediation o Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) o Resources o Disclaimer Vulnerability Description Scope of this Security Bulletin: o Any product that McAfee offers that comes bundled with an operating system, either on hardware or as a virtual machine, will be covered in this Security Bulletin. o Where McAfee software is installed on an operating system provided by the customer, we will only list the product here if we are releasing a fix. By default, these products will be protected by the Intel and operating system vendor provided updates. McAfee products that ship as appliances or virtual images are vulnerable to these CVEs as they run on affected Intel CPUs. These systems are 'closed' as they do not allow multiple users to log on and execute programs of their choice. As such the likelihood of being exploited is considered low. As with previous related CVEs (Spectre/Meltdown variants), McAfee plans to address these vulnerabilities as part of the regular update cycles for the impacted products. These vulnerabilities have been given the code name "ZombieLoad". For McAfee virtual appliances, including instances running in the cloud, ensure that you have applied the vendor fixes to the virtual environment they are running in. 1. CVE-2019-11091 Uncacheable memory on some microprocessors utilizing speculative execution can allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via a side channel with local access. http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cginame=CVE-2019-11091 https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/cve-2019-11091 2. CVE-2018-12126 Modern Intel ^ microprocessors implement hardware-level micro-optimizations to improve the performance of writing data back to CPU caches. The write operation is split into STA (STore Address) and STD (STore Data) sub operations. These sub operations allow the processor to hand-off address generation logic into these sub operations for optimized writes. Both of these sub operations write to a shared distributed processor structure called the 'processor store buffer'. As a result, an unprivileged attacker could use this flaw to read private data resident within the CPU's processor store buffer. http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cginame=CVE-2018-12126 https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/cve-2018-12126 3. CVE-2018-12130 A flaw was found in the implementation of the "fill buffer," a mechanism used by modern CPUs when a cache-miss is made on L1 CPU cache. If an attacker can generate a load operation that would create a page fault, the execution continues speculatively with incorrect data from the fill buffer while the data is fetched from higher-level caches. This response time can be measured to infer data in the fill buffer. http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cginame=CVE-2018-12130 https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/cve-2018-12130 4. CVE-2018-12127 Microprocessors use a 'load port' subcomponent to perform load operations from memory or IO. During a load operation, the load port receives data from the memory or IO subsystem and then provides the data to the CPU registers and operations in the CPU's pipelines. Stale load operations results are stored in the 'load port' table until overwritten by newer operations. Certain load-port operations triggered by an attacker can be used to reveal data about previous stale requests leaking data back to the attacker via a timing side-channel. http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cginame=CVE-2018-12127 https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/cve-2018-12127 McAfee Product Vulnerability Status The table below shows the status of all currently supported products where McAfee provides the operating system.

Where can I find a list of all Security Bulletins All Security Bulletins are published on our external PSIRT website at http:// www.mcafee.com/us/threat-center/product-security-bulletins.aspx > Security Bulletins. Security Bulletins are retired (removed) once a product is both End of Sale and End of Support (End of Life). How do I report a product vulnerability to McAfee If you have information about a security issue or vulnerability with a McAfee product, visit the McAfee PSIRT website for instructions at http:// www.mcafee.com/us/threat-center/product-security-bulletins.aspx > Report a Security Vulnerability. How does McAfee respond to this and any other reported security flaws Our key priority is the security of our customers. If a vulnerability is found within any McAfee software or services, we work closely with the relevant security software development team to ensure the rapid and effective development of a fix and communication plan. McAfee only publishes Security Bulletins if they include something actionable such as a workaround, mitigation, version update, or hotfix. Otherwise, we would simply be informing the hacker community that our products are a target, putting our customers at greater risk. For products that are updated automatically, a non-actionable Security Bulletin might be published to acknowledge the discoverer.
