Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Metagauss RegistrationMagic.This issue affects RegistrationMagic: from n/a through 5.3.0.0.
A vulnerability was found in Tenda AC7 15.03.06.44. It has been rated as critical. This issue affects the function formWifiWpsStart of the file /goform/WifiWpsStart. The manipulation of the argument index leads to stack-based buffer overflow. The attack may be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The associated identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-257939. NOTE: The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Fix late derefrence 'dsc' check in 'link_set_dsc_pps_packet()'
In link_set_dsc_pps_packet(), 'struct display_stream_compressor *dsc'
was dereferenced in a DC_LOGGER_INIT(dsc->ctx->logger); before the 'dsc'
NULL pointer check.
Fixes the below:
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/link/link_dpms.c:905 link_set_dsc_pps_packet() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'dsc' (see line 903)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Fix variable deferencing before NULL check in edp_setup_replay()
In edp_setup_replay(), 'struct dc *dc' & 'struct dmub_replay *replay'
was dereferenced before the pointer 'link' & 'replay' NULL check.
Fixes the below:
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/link/protocols/link_edp_panel_control.c:947 edp_setup_replay() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'link' (see line 933)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: Fix the null pointer when load rlc firmware
If the RLC firmware is invalid because of wrong header size,
the pointer to the rlc firmware is released in function
amdgpu_ucode_request. There will be a null pointer error
in subsequent use. So skip validation to fix it.
A vulnerability was found in Tenda AC7 15.03.06.44. It has been declared as critical. This vulnerability affects the function formWifiWpsOOB of the file /goform/WifiWpsOOB. The manipulation of the argument index leads to stack-based buffer overflow. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. VDB-257938 is the identifier assigned to this vulnerability. NOTE: The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Refactor DMCUB enter/exit idle interface
[Why]
We can hang in place trying to send commands when the DMCUB isn't
powered on.
[How]
We need to exit out of the idle state prior to sending a command,
but the process that performs the exit also invokes a command itself.
Fixing this issue involves the following:
1. Using a software state to track whether or not we need to start
the process to exit idle or notify idle.
It's possible for the hardware to have exited an idle state without
driver knowledge, but entering one is always restricted to a driver
allow - which makes the SW state vs HW state mismatch issue purely one
of optimization, which should seldomly be hit, if at all.
2. Refactor any instances of exit/notify idle to use a single wrapper
that maintains this SW state.
This works simialr to dc_allow_idle_optimizations, but works at the
DMCUB level and makes sure the state is marked prior to any notify/exit
idle so we don't enter an infinite loop.
3. Make sure we exit out of idle prior to sending any commands or
waiting for DMCUB idle.
This patch takes care of 1/2. A future patch will take care of wrapping
DMCUB command submission with calls to this new interface.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: Fix operation precedence bug in port timestamping napi_poll context
Indirection (*) is of lower precedence than postfix increment (++). Logic
in napi_poll context would cause an out-of-bound read by first increment
the pointer address by byte address space and then dereference the value.
Rather, the intended logic was to dereference first and then increment the
underlying value.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: adc: ad7091r: Allow users to configure device events
AD7091R-5 devices are supported by the ad7091r-5 driver together with
the ad7091r-base driver. Those drivers declared iio events for notifying
user space when ADC readings fall bellow the thresholds of low limit
registers or above the values set in high limit registers.
However, to configure iio events and their thresholds, a set of callback
functions must be implemented and those were not present until now.
The consequence of trying to configure ad7091r-5 events without the
proper callback functions was a null pointer dereference in the kernel
because the pointers to the callback functions were not set.
Implement event configuration callbacks allowing users to read/write
event thresholds and enable/disable event generation.
Since the event spec structs are generic to AD7091R devices, also move
those from the ad7091r-5 driver the base driver so they can be reused
when support for ad7091r-2/-4/-8 be added.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
thermal: intel: hfi: Add syscore callbacks for system-wide PM
The kernel allocates a memory buffer and provides its location to the
hardware, which uses it to update the HFI table. This allocation occurs
during boot and remains constant throughout runtime.
When resuming from hibernation, the restore kernel allocates a second
memory buffer and reprograms the HFI hardware with the new location as
part of a normal boot. The location of the second memory buffer may
differ from the one allocated by the image kernel.
When the restore kernel transfers control to the image kernel, its HFI
buffer becomes invalid, potentially leading to memory corruption if the
hardware writes to it (the hardware continues to use the buffer from the
restore kernel).
It is also possible that the hardware "forgets" the address of the memory
buffer when resuming from "deep" suspend. Memory corruption may also occur
in such a scenario.
To prevent the described memory corruption, disable HFI when preparing to
suspend or hibernate. Enable it when resuming.
Add syscore callbacks to handle the package of the boot CPU (packages of
non-boot CPUs are handled via CPU offline). Syscore ops always run on the
boot CPU. Additionally, HFI only needs to be disabled during "deep" suspend
and hibernation. Syscore ops only run in these cases.
