CVSS v3.1 |
| ntfs3 in the Linux kernel through 6.8.0 allows a physically proximate attacker to read kernel memory by mounting a filesystem (e.g., if a Linux distribution is configured to allow unprivileged mounts of removable media) and then leveraging local access to trigger an out-of-bounds read. A length value can be larger than the amount of memory allocated. NOTE: the supplier's perspective is that there is no vulnerability when an attack requires an attacker-modified filesystem image. |
| bt_sock_recvmsg in net/bluetooth/af_bluetooth.c in the Linux kernel through 6.6.8 has a use-after-free because of a bt_sock_ioctl race condition. |
| In the Linux kernel through 6.9, an untrusted hypervisor can inject virtual interrupts 0 and 14 at any point in time and can trigger the SIGFPE signal handler in userspace applications. This affects AMD SEV-SNP and AMD SEV-ES. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
m68k: Only force 030 bus error if PC not in exception table
__get_kernel_nofault() does copy data in supervisor mode when
forcing a task backtrace log through /proc/sysrq_trigger.
This is expected cause a bus error exception on e.g. NULL
pointer dereferencing when logging a kernel task has no
workqueue associated. This bus error ought to be ignored.
Our 030 bus error handler is ill equipped to deal with this:
Whenever ssw indicates a kernel mode access on a data fault,
we don't even attempt to handle the fault and instead always
send a SEGV signal (or panic). As a result, the check
for exception handling at the fault PC (buried in
send_sig_fault() which gets called from do_page_fault()
eventually) is never used.
In contrast, both 040 and 060 access error handlers do not
care whether a fault happened on supervisor mode access,
and will call do_page_fault() on those, ultimately honoring
the exception table.
Add a check in bus_error030 to call do_page_fault() in case
we do have an entry for the fault PC in our exception table.
I had attempted a fix for this earlier in 2019 that did rely
on testing pagefault_disabled() (see link below) to achieve
the same thing, but this patch should be more generic.
Tested on 030 Atari Falcon. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ipa: only reset hashed tables when supported
Last year, the code that manages GSI channel transactions switched
from using spinlock-protected linked lists to using indexes into the
ring buffer used for a channel. Recently, Google reported seeing
transaction reference count underflows occasionally during shutdown.
Doug Anderson found a way to reproduce the issue reliably, and
bisected the issue to the commit that eliminated the linked lists
and the lock. The root cause was ultimately determined to be
related to unused transactions being committed as part of the modem
shutdown cleanup activity. Unused transactions are not normally
expected (except in error cases).
The modem uses some ranges of IPA-resident memory, and whenever it
shuts down we zero those ranges. In ipa_filter_reset_table() a
transaction is allocated to zero modem filter table entries. If
hashing is not supported, hashed table memory should not be zeroed.
But currently nothing prevents that, and the result is an unused
transaction. Something similar occurs when we zero routing table
entries for the modem.
By preventing any attempt to clear hashed tables when hashing is not
supported, the reference count underflow is avoided in this case.
Note that there likely remains an issue with properly freeing unused
transactions (if they occur due to errors). This patch addresses
only the underflows that Google originally reported. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clk: imx93: fix memory leak and missing unwind goto in imx93_clocks_probe
In function probe(), it returns directly without unregistered hws
when error occurs.
Fix this by adding 'goto unregister_hws;' on line 295 and
line 310.
Use devm_kzalloc() instead of kzalloc() to automatically
free the memory using devm_kfree() when error occurs.
Replace of_iomap() with devm_of_iomap() to automatically
handle the unused ioremap region and delete 'iounmap(anatop_base);'
in unregister_hws. |

Revert "drm/msm: Add missing check and destroy for alloc_ordered_workqueue"
This reverts commit 643b7d0869cc7f1f7a5ac7ca6bd25d88f54e31d0.
A recent patch that tried to fix up the msm_drm_init() paths with
respect to the workqueue but only ended up making things worse:
First, the newly added calls to msm_drm_uninit() on early errors would
trigger NULL-pointer dereferences, for example, as the kms pointer would
not have been initialised. (Note that these paths were also modified by
a second broken error handling patch which in effect cancelled out this
part when merged.)
Second, the newly added allocation sanity check would still leak the
previously allocated drm device.
Instead of trying to salvage what was badly broken (and clearly not
tested), let's revert the bad commit so that clean and backportable
fixes can be added in its place.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: brcmfmac: cfg80211: Pass the PMK in binary instead of hex
Apparently the hex passphrase mechanism does not work on newer
chips/firmware (e.g. BCM4387). It seems there was a simple way of
passing it in binary all along, so use that and avoid the hexification.
OpenBSD has been doing it like this from the beginning, so this should
work on all chips.
Also clear the structure before setting the PMK. This was leaking
uninitialized stack contents to the device. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm: fix a race condition in retrieve_deps
There's a race condition in the multipath target when retrieve_deps
races with multipath_message calling dm_get_device and dm_put_device.
retrieve_deps walks the list of open devices without holding any lock
but multipath may add or remove devices to the list while it is
running. The end result may be memory corruption or use-after-free
memory access.
See this description of a UAF with multipath_message():
https://listman.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2022-October/052373.html
Fix this bug by introducing a new rw semaphore "devices_lock". We grab
devices_lock for read in retrieve_deps and we grab it for write in
dm_get_device and dm_put_device. |

platform/x86/amd: pmc: Fix memory leak in amd_pmc_stb_debugfs_open_v2()
Function amd_pmc_stb_debugfs_open_v2() may be called when the STB
debug mechanism enabled.
When amd_pmc_send_cmd() fails, the 'buf' needs to be released. |

pinctrl: at91-pio4: check return value of devm_kasprintf()
devm_kasprintf() returns a pointer to dynamically allocated memory.
Pointer could be NULL in case allocation fails. Check pointer validity.

refscale: Fix uninitalized use of wait_queue_head_t
Running the refscale test occasionally crashes the kernel with the
following error:

The likely cause is that init_waitqueue_head() is called after the call to
the torture_create_kthread() function that creates the ref_scale_reader
kthread. Although this init_waitqueue_head() call will very likely
complete before this kthread is created and starts running, it is
possible that the calling kthread will be delayed between the calls to
torture_create_kthread() and init_waitqueue_head(). In this case, the
new kthread will use the waitqueue head before it is properly initialized,
which is not good for the kernel's health and well-being.
The above crash happened here:
static inline void __add_wait_queue(...)
{
:
if (!(wq->flags & WQ_FLAG_PRIORITY)) <=== Crash here
The offset of flags from list_head entry in wait_queue_entry is
-0x18. If reader_tasks[i].wq.head.next is NULL as allocated reader_task
structure is zero initialized, the instruction will try to access address
0xffffffffffffffe8, which is exactly the fault address listed above.
This commit therefore invokes init_waitqueue_head() before creating
the kthread. |
