Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In February 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: qat - ADF_STATUS_PF_RUNNING should be set after adf_dev_init
ADF_STATUS_PF_RUNNING is (only) used and checked by adf_vf2pf_shutdown()
before calling adf_iov_putmsg()->mutex_lock(vf2pf_lock), however the
vf2pf_lock is initialized in adf_dev_init(), which can fail and when it
fail, the vf2pf_lock is either not initialized or destroyed, a subsequent
use of vf2pf_lock will cause issue.
To fix this issue, only set this flag if adf_dev_init() returns 0.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: sun8i-ss - Fix memory leak of object d when dma_iv fails to map
In the case where the dma_iv mapping fails, the return error path leaks
the memory allocated to object d. Fix this by adding a new error return
label and jumping to this to ensure d is free'd before the return.
Addresses-Coverity: ("Resource leak")

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
regmap: set debugfs_name to NULL after it is freed
There is a upstream commit cffa4b2122f5("regmap:debugfs:
Fix a memory leak when calling regmap_attach_dev") that
adds a if condition when create name for debugfs_name.
With below function invoking logical, debugfs_name is
freed in regmap_debugfs_exit(), but it is not created again
because of the if condition introduced by above commit.
regmap_reinit_cache()
regmap_debugfs_exit()
...
regmap_debugfs_init()
So, set debugfs_name to NULL after it is freed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: Stop looking for coalesced MMIO zones if the bus is destroyed
Abort the walk of coalesced MMIO zones if kvm_io_bus_unregister_dev()
fails to allocate memory for the new instance of the bus. If it can't
instantiate a new bus, unregister_dev() destroys all devices _except_ the
target device. But, it doesn't tell the caller that it obliterated the
bus and invoked the destructor for all devices that were on the bus. In
the coalesced MMIO case, this can result in a deleted list entry
dereference due to attempting to continue iterating on coalesced_zones
after future entries (in the walk) have been deleted.
Opportunistically add curly braces to the for-loop, which encompasses
many lines but sneaks by without braces due to the guts being a single
if statement.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: Destroy I/O bus devices on unregister failure _after_ sync'ing SRCU
If allocating a new instance of an I/O bus fails when unregistering a
device, wait to destroy the device until after all readers are guaranteed
to see the new null bus. Destroying devices before the bus is nullified
could lead to use-after-free since readers expect the devices on their
reference of the bus to remain valid.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: SVM: Use online_vcpus, not created_vcpus, to iterate over vCPUs
Use the kvm_for_each_vcpu() helper to iterate over vCPUs when encrypting
VMSAs for SEV, which effectively switches to use online_vcpus instead of
created_vcpus. This fixes a possible null-pointer dereference as
created_vcpus does not guarantee a vCPU exists, since it is updated at
the very beginning of KVM_CREATE_VCPU. created_vcpus exists to allow the
bulk of vCPU creation to run in parallel, while still correctly
restricting the max number of max vCPUs.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm: bridge/panel: Cleanup connector on bridge detach
If we don't call drm_connector_cleanup() manually in
panel_bridge_detach(), the connector will be cleaned up with the other
DRM objects in the call to drm_mode_config_cleanup(). However, since our
drm_connector is devm-allocated, by the time drm_mode_config_cleanup()
will be called, our connector will be long gone. Therefore, the
connector must be cleaned up when the bridge is detached to avoid
use-after-free conditions.
v2: Cleanup connector only if it was created
v3: Add FIXME
v4: (Use connector->dev) directly in if() block

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mt76: fix potential DMA mapping leak
With buf uninitialized in mt76_dma_tx_queue_skb_raw, its field skip_unmap
could potentially inherit a non-zero value from stack garbage.
If this happens, it will cause DMA mappings for MCU command frames to not be
unmapped after completion
