Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In February 2025
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firewire: test: Fix potential null dereference in firewire kunit test
kunit_kzalloc() may return a NULL pointer, dereferencing it without
NULL check may lead to NULL dereference.
Add a NULL check for test_state.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ethernet: ti: am65-cpsw: fix freeing IRQ in am65_cpsw_nuss_remove_tx_chns()
When getting the IRQ we use k3_udma_glue_tx_get_irq() which returns
negative error value on error. So not NULL check is not sufficient
to deteremine if IRQ is valid. Check that IRQ is greater then zero
to ensure it is valid.
There is no issue at probe time but at runtime user can invoke
.set_channels which results in the following call chain.
am65_cpsw_set_channels()
am65_cpsw_nuss_update_tx_rx_chns()
am65_cpsw_nuss_remove_tx_chns()
am65_cpsw_nuss_init_tx_chns()
At this point if am65_cpsw_nuss_init_tx_chns() fails due to
k3_udma_glue_tx_get_irq() then tx_chn->irq will be set to a
negative value.
Then, at subsequent .set_channels with higher channel count we
will attempt to free an invalid IRQ in am65_cpsw_nuss_remove_tx_chns()
leading to a kernel warning.
The issue is present in the original commit that introduced this driver,
although there, am65_cpsw_nuss_update_tx_rx_chns() existed as
am65_cpsw_nuss_update_tx_chns().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: HWS, fix definer's HWS_SET32 macro for negative offset
When bit offset for HWS_SET32 macro is negative,
UBSAN complains about the shift-out-of-bounds:
UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/steering/hws/definer.c:177:2
shift exponent -8 is negative
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ravb: Fix missing rtnl lock in suspend/resume path
Fix the suspend/resume path by ensuring the rtnl lock is held where
required. Calls to ravb_open, ravb_close and wol operations must be
performed under the rtnl lock to prevent conflicts with ongoing ndo
operations.
Without this fix, the following warning is triggered:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: hns3: fix oops when unload drivers paralleling
When unload hclge driver, it tries to disable sriov first for each
ae_dev node from hnae3_ae_dev_list. If user unloads hns3 driver at
the time, because it removes all the ae_dev nodes, and it may cause
oops.
But we can't simply use hnae3_common_lock for this. Because in the
process flow of pci_disable_sriov(), it will trigger the remove flow
of VF, which will also take hnae3_common_lock.
To fixes it, introduce a new mutex to protect the unload process.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
LoongArch: Fix warnings during S3 suspend
The enable_gpe_wakeup() function calls acpi_enable_all_wakeup_gpes(),
and the later one may call the preempt_schedule_common() function,
resulting in a thread switch and causing the CPU to be in an interrupt
enabled state after the enable_gpe_wakeup() function returns, leading
to the warnings as follow.

The root cause is acpi_enable_all_wakeup_gpes() uses a mutex to protect
acpi_hw_enable_all_wakeup_gpes(), and acpi_ut_acquire_mutex() may cause
a thread switch. Since there is no longer concurrent execution during
loongarch_acpi_suspend(), we can call acpi_hw_enable_all_wakeup_gpes()
directly in enable_gpe_wakeup().
The solution is similar to commit 22db06337f590d01 ("ACPI: sleep: Avoid
breaking S3 wakeup due to might_sleep()").
Nagios XI 2024R1.2.2 is vulnerable to an open redirect flaw on the Tools page, exploitable by users with read-only permissions. This vulnerability allows an attacker to craft a malicious link that redirects users to an arbitrary external URL without their consent.
WP Activity Log 5.3.2 was found to be vulnerable. Unvalidated user input is used directly in an unserialize function in myapp/classes/Writers/class-csv-writer.php.
Mastodon is a self-hosted, federated microblogging platform. In versions prior to 4.1.23, 4.2.16, and 4.3.4, when the visibility for domain blocks/reasons is set to "users" (localized English string: "To logged-in users"), users that are not yet approved can view the block reasons. Instance admins that do not want their domain blocks to be public are impacted. Versions 4.1.23, 4.2.16, and 4.3.4 fix the issue.
A vulnerability has been found in LinZhaoguan pb-cms 2.0 and classified as problematic. This vulnerability affects unknown code of the component Logout. The manipulation leads to cross-site request forgery. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.
