Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In February 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/fpu: Stop relying on userspace for info to fault in xsave buffer
Before this change, the expected size of the user space buffer was
taken from fx_sw->xstate_size. fx_sw->xstate_size can be changed
from user-space, so it is possible construct a sigreturn frame where:
* fx_sw->xstate_size is smaller than the size required by valid bits in
fx_sw->xfeatures.
* user-space unmaps parts of the sigrame fpu buffer so that not all of
the buffer required by xrstor is accessible.
In this case, xrstor tries to restore and accesses the unmapped area
which results in a fault. But fault_in_readable succeeds because buf +
fx_sw->xstate_size is within the still mapped area, so it goes back and
tries xrstor again. It will spin in this loop forever.
Instead, fault in the maximum size which can be touched by XRSTOR (taken
from fpstate->user_size).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Revert "kobject: Remove redundant checks for whether ktype is NULL"
This reverts commit 1b28cb81dab7c1eedc6034206f4e8d644046ad31.
It is reported to cause problems, so revert it for now until the root
cause can be found.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI/ASPM: Fix deadlock when enabling ASPM
A last minute revert in 6.7-final introduced a potential deadlock when
enabling ASPM during probe of Qualcomm PCIe controllers as reported by
lockdep:
============================================
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
6.7.0 #40 Not tainted
--------------------------------------------
kworker/u16:5/90 is trying to acquire lock:
ffffacfa78ced000 (pci_bus_sem){++++}-{3:3}, at: pcie_aspm_pm_state_change+0x58/0xdc
but task is already holding lock:
ffffacfa78ced000 (pci_bus_sem){++++}-{3:3}, at: pci_walk_bus+0x34/0xbc
other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:

The deadlock can easily be reproduced on machines like the Lenovo ThinkPad
X13s by adding a delay to increase the race window during asynchronous
probe where another thread can take a write lock.
Add a new pci_set_power_state_locked() and associated helper functions that
can be called with the PCI bus semaphore held to avoid taking the read lock
twice.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
binder: signal epoll threads of self-work
In (e)poll mode, threads often depend on I/O events to determine when
data is ready for consumption. Within binder, a thread may initiate a
command via BINDER_WRITE_READ without a read buffer and then make use
of epoll_wait() or similar to consume any responses afterwards.
It is then crucial that epoll threads are signaled via wakeup when they
queue their own work. Otherwise, they risk waiting indefinitely for an
event leaving their work unhandled. What is worse, subsequent commands
won't trigger a wakeup either as the thread has pending work.

Amazon Fire OS 7 before 7.6.6.9 and 8 before 8.1.0.3 allows Fire TV applications to establish local ADB (Android Debug Bridge) connections. NOTE: some third parties dispute whether this has security relevance, because an ADB connection is only possible after the (non-default) ADB Debugging option is enabled, and after the initiator of that specific connection attempt has been approved via a full-screen prompt.

langchain_experimental (aka LangChain Experimental) in LangChain before 0.1.8 allows an attacker to bypass the CVE-2023-44467 fix and execute arbitrary code via the __import__, __subclasses__, __builtins__, __globals__, __getattribute__, __bases__, __mro__, or __base__ attribute in Python code. These are not prohibited by pal_chain/base.py.
