Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In February 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: spi-zynqmp-gqspi: fix use-after-free in zynqmp_qspi_exec_op
When handling op->addr, it is using the buffer "tmpbuf" which has been
freed. This will trigger a use-after-free KASAN warning. Let's use
temporary variables to store op->addr.val and op->cmd.opcode to fix
this issue.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Drivers: hv: vmbus: Use after free in __vmbus_open()
The "open_info" variable is added to the &vmbus_connection.chn_msg_list,
but the error handling frees "open_info" without removing it from the
list. This will result in a use after free. First remove it from the
list, and then free it.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
memory: renesas-rpc-if: fix possible NULL pointer dereference of resource
The platform_get_resource_byname() can return NULL which would be
immediately dereferenced by resource_size(). Instead dereference it
after validating the resource.
Addresses-Coverity: Dereference null return value
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: fsl-lpspi: Fix PM reference leak in lpspi_prepare_xfer_hardware()
pm_runtime_get_sync will increment pm usage counter even it failed.
Forgetting to putting operation will result in reference leak here.
Fix it by replacing it with pm_runtime_resume_and_get to keep usage
counter balanced.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: sa2ul - Fix memory leak of rxd
There are two error return paths that are not freeing rxd and causing
memory leaks. Fix these.
Addresses-Coverity: ("Resource leak")
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: sun8i-ss - Fix memory leak of pad
It appears there are several failure return paths that don't seem
to be free'ing pad. Fix these.
Addresses-Coverity: ("Resource leak")
The Under Construction / Maintenance Mode from Acurax plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in versions up to, and including, 2.6 via the 'acx_csma_subscribe_ajax' function. This can allow authenticated attackers to extract sensitive data such as names and email addresses of subscribed visitors.
The Gestpay for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 20221130. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the 'ajax_set_default_card' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to set the default card token for a user via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/64: Fix the definition of the fixmap area
At the time being, the fixmap area is defined at the top of
the address space or just below KASAN.
This definition is not valid for PPC64.
For PPC64, use the top of the I/O space.
Because of circular dependencies, it is not possible to include
asm/fixmap.h in asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h , so define a fixed size
AREA at the top of the I/O space for fixmap and ensure during
build that the size is big enough.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mt76: mt7921: fix possible invalid register access
Disable the interrupt and synchronze for the pending irq handlers to ensure
the irq tasklet is not being scheduled after the suspend to avoid the
possible invalid register access acts when the host pcie controller is
suspended.
