| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath9k: avoid referencing uninit memory in ath9k_wmi_ctrl_rx
For the reasons also described in commit b383e8abed41 ("wifi: ath9k: avoid
uninit memory read in ath9k_htc_rx_msg()"), ath9k_htc_rx_msg() should
validate pkt_len before accessing the SKB.
For example, the obtained SKB may have been badly constructed with
pkt_len = 8. In this case, the SKB can only contain a valid htc_frame_hdr
but after being processed in ath9k_htc_rx_msg() and passed to
ath9k_wmi_ctrl_rx() endpoint RX handler, it is expected to have a WMI
command header which should be located inside its data payload.
Implement sanity checking inside ath9k_wmi_ctrl_rx(). Otherwise, uninit
memory can be referenced.
Tested on Qualcomm Atheros Communications AR9271 802.11n .

platform/x86: think-lmi: Fix memory leaks when parsing ThinkStation WMI strings
My previous commit introduced a memory leak where the item allocated
from tlmi_setting was not freed.
This commit also renames it to avoid confusion with the similarly name
variable in the same function. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
misc: fastrpc: fix memory corruption on open
The probe session-duplication overflow check incremented the session
count also when there were no more available sessions so that memory
beyond the fixed-size slab-allocated session array could be corrupted in
fastrpc_session_alloc() on open(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware_loader: Fix memory leak in firmware upload
In the case of firmware-upload, an instance of struct fw_upload is
allocated in firmware_upload_register(). This data needs to be freed
in fw_dev_release(). Create a new fw_upload_free() function in
sysfs_upload.c to handle the firmware-upload specific memory frees
and incorporate the missing kfree call for the fw_upload structure. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: allow exp not to be removed in nf_ct_find_expectation
Currently nf_conntrack_in() calling nf_ct_find_expectation() will
remove the exp from the hash table. However, in some scenario, we
expect the exp not to be removed when the created ct will not be
confirmed, like in OVS and TC conntrack in the following patches.
This patch allows exp not to be removed by setting IPS_CONFIRMED
in the status of the tmpl. |
| A heap out-of-bounds write affecting Linux since v2.6.19-rc1 was discovered in net/netfilter/x_tables.c. This allows an attacker to gain privileges or cause a DoS (via heap memory corruption) through user name space |
| This CVE ID has been rejected or withdrawn by its CVE Numbering Authority. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
opp: Fix use-after-free in lazy_opp_tables after probe deferral
When dev_pm_opp_of_find_icc_paths() in _allocate_opp_table() returns
-EPROBE_DEFER, the opp_table is freed again, to wait until all the
interconnect paths are available.
However, if the OPP table is using required-opps then it may already
have been added to the global lazy_opp_tables list. The error path
does not remove the opp_table from the list again.
This can cause crashes later when the provider of the required-opps
is added, since we will iterate over OPP tables that have already been
freed. E.g.:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference when read
CPU: 0 PID: 7 Comm: kworker/0:0 Not tainted 6.4.0-rc3
PC is at _of_add_opp_table_v2 (include/linux/of.h:949
drivers/opp/of.c:98 drivers/opp/of.c:344 drivers/opp/of.c:404
drivers/opp/of.c:1032) -> lazy_link_required_opp_table()
Fix this by calling _of_clear_opp_table() to remove the opp_table from
the list and clear other allocated resources. While at it, also add the
missing mutex_destroy() calls in the error path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtl8xxxu: Fix memory leaks with RTL8723BU, RTL8192EU
The wifi + bluetooth combo chip RTL8723BU can leak memory (especially?)
when it's connected to a bluetooth audio device. The busy bluetooth
traffic generates lots of C2H (card to host) messages, which are not
freed correctly.
To fix this, move the dev_kfree_skb() call in rtl8xxxu_c2hcmd_callback()
inside the loop where skb_dequeue() is called.
The RTL8192EU leaks memory because the C2H messages are added to the
queue and left there forever. (This was fine in the past because it
probably wasn't sending any C2H messages until commit e542e66b7c2e
("wifi: rtl8xxxu: gen2: Turn on the rate control"). Since that commit
it sends a C2H message when the TX rate changes.)
To fix this, delete the check for rf_paths > 1 and the goto. Let the
function process the C2H messages from RTL8192EU like the ones from
the other chips.
Theoretically the RTL8188FU could also leak like RTL8723BU, but it
most likely doesn't send C2H messages frequently enough.
This change was tested with RTL8723BU by Erhard F. I tested it with
RTL8188FU and RTL8192EU. |

wifi: mt76: mt7921s: fix slab-out-of-bounds access in sdio host
SDIO may need addtional 511 bytes to align bus operation. If the tailroom
of this skb is not big enough, we would access invalid memory region.
For low level operation, increase skb size to keep valid memory access in
SDIO host.

USB: gadget: Fix use-after-free during usb config switch
In the process of switching USB config from rndis to other config,
if the hardware does not support the ->pullup callback, or the
hardware encounters a low probability fault, both of them may cause
the ->pullup callback to fail, which will then cause a system panic
(use after free).

SELinux: Context system_u:object_r:pssp_rsyslog_log_t:s0:c0 is
not valid (left unmapped).
It was found that within a critical section of spin_lock_irqsave in
sidtab_context_to_sid(), convert_context() (hooked by
sidtab_convert_params.func) might cause the process to sleep via
allocating memory with GFP_KERNEL, which is problematic.
As Ondrej pointed out [1], convert_context()/sidtab_convert_params.func
has another caller sidtab_convert_tree(), which is okay with GFP_KERNEL.
Therefore, fix this problem by adding a gfp_t argument for
convert_context()/sidtab_convert_params.func and pass GFP_KERNEL/_ATOMIC
properly in individual callers.

In externel_lb process, the hns3 driver call napi_disable()
first, then the reset happen, then the restore process of the
externel_lb will fail, and will not call napi_enable(). When
doing externel_lb again, napi_disable() will be double call,
cause a deadlock of rtnl_lock().
This patch use the HNS3_NIC_STATE_DOWN state to protect the
calling of napi_disable() and napi_enable() in externel_lb
process, just as the usage in ndo_stop() and ndo_start(). |

net/ieee802154: don't warn zero-sized raw_sendmsg()
syzbot is hitting skb_assert_len() warning at __dev_queue_xmit() [1],
for PF_IEEE802154 socket's zero-sized raw_sendmsg() request is hitting
__dev_queue_xmit() with skb->len == 0.
Since PF_IEEE802154 socket's zero-sized raw_sendmsg() request was
able to return 0, don't call __dev_queue_xmit() if packet length is 0.
----------
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
struct sockaddr_in addr = { .sin_family = AF_INET, .sin_addr.s_addr = htonl(INADDR_LOOPBACK) };
struct iovec iov = { };
struct msghdr hdr = { .msg_name = &addr, .msg_namelen = sizeof(addr), .msg_iov = &iov, .msg_iovlen = 1 };
sendmsg(socket(PF_IEEE802154, SOCK_RAW, 0), &hdr, 0);
return 0;
}
----------
Note that this might be a sign that commit fd1894224407c484 ("bpf: Don't
redirect packets with invalid pkt_len") should be reverted, for
skb->len == 0 was acceptable for at least PF_IEEE802154 socket. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm/dpu: Disallow unallocated resources to be returned
In the event that the topology requests resources that have not been
created by the system (because they are typically not represented in
dpu_mdss_cfg ^1), the resource(s) in global_state (in this case DSC
blocks, until their allocation/assignment is being sanity-checked in
"drm/msm/dpu: Reject topologies for which no DSC blocks are available")
remain NULL but will still be returned out of
dpu_rm_get_assigned_resources, where the caller expects to get an array
containing num_blks valid pointers (but instead gets these NULLs).
To prevent this from happening, where null-pointer dereferences
typically result in a hard-to-debug platform lockup, num_blks shouldn't
increase past NULL blocks and will print an error and break instead.
After all, max_blks represents the static size of the maximum number of
blocks whereas the actual amount varies per platform.
^1: which can happen after a git rebase ended up moving additions to
_dpu_cfg to a different struct which has the same patch context.

Example thread interleaving that causes the general protection fault
is as follows:
CPU1 (vmci_host_poll) CPU2 (vmci_host_do_init_context)
----- -----
// Read uninitialized context
context = vmci_host_dev->context;
// Initialize context
vmci_host_dev->context = vmci_ctx_create();
vmci_host_dev->ct_type = VMCIOBJ_CONTEXT;
if (vmci_host_dev->ct_type == VMCIOBJ_CONTEXT) {
// Dereferencing the wrong pointer
poll_wait(..., &context->host_context);
}
In this scenario, vmci_host_poll() reads vmci_host_dev->context first,
and then reads vmci_host_dev->ct_type to check that
vmci_host_dev->context is initialized. However, since these two reads
are not atomically executed, there is a chance of a race condition as
described above.
To fix this race condition, read vmci_host_dev->context after checking
the value of vmci_host_dev->ct_type so that vmci_host_poll() always
reads an initialized context. |

virtio_vdpa: build affinity masks conditionally
We try to build affinity mask via create_affinity_masks()
unconditionally which may lead several issues:
- the affinity mask is not used for parent without affinity support
(only VDUSE support the affinity now)
- the logic of create_affinity_masks() might not work for devices
other than block. For example it's not rare in the networking device
where the number of queues could exceed the number of CPUs. Such
case breaks the current affinity logic which is based on
group_cpus_evenly() who assumes the number of CPUs are not less than
the number of groups. This can trigger a warning[1]:
if (ret >= 0)
WARN_ON(nr_present + nr_others < numgrps);
Fixing this by only build the affinity masks only when
- Driver passes affinity descriptor, driver like virtio-blk can make
sure to limit the number of queues when it exceeds the number of CPUs
- Parent support affinity setting config ops
This help to avoid the warning. More optimizations could be done on
top.

ping: Fix potentail NULL deref for /proc/net/icmp.
After commit dbca1596bbb0 ("ping: convert to RCU lookups, get rid
of rwlock"), we use RCU for ping sockets, but we should use spinlock
for /proc/net/icmp to avoid a potential NULL deref mentioned in
the previous patch.
Let's go back to using spinlock there.
Note we can convert ping sockets to use hlist instead of hlist_nulls
because we do not use SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU for ping sockets. |
