Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In March 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: dsa: sja1105: add error handling in sja1105_setup()
If any of sja1105_static_config_load(), sja1105_clocking_setup() or
sja1105_devlink_setup() fails, we can't just return in the middle of
sja1105_setup() or memory will leak. Add a cleanup path.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mld: fix panic in mld_newpack()
mld_newpack() doesn't allow to allocate high order page,
only order-0 allocation is allowed.
If headroom size is too large, a kernel panic could occur in skb_put().
Test commands:
ip netns del A
ip netns del B
ip netns add A
ip netns add B
ip link add veth0 type veth peer name veth1
ip link set veth0 netns A
ip link set veth1 netns B
ip netns exec A ip link set lo up
ip netns exec A ip link set veth0 up
ip netns exec A ip -6 a a 2001:db8:0::1/64 dev veth0
ip netns exec B ip link set lo up
ip netns exec B ip link set veth1 up
ip netns exec B ip -6 a a 2001:db8:0::2/64 dev veth1
for i in {1..99}
do
let A=$i-1
ip netns exec A ip link add ip6gre$i type ip6gre \
local 2001:db8:$A::1 remote 2001:db8:$A::2 encaplimit 100
ip netns exec A ip -6 a a 2001:db8:$i::1/64 dev ip6gre$i
ip netns exec A ip link set ip6gre$i up
ip netns exec B ip link add ip6gre$i type ip6gre \
local 2001:db8:$A::2 remote 2001:db8:$A::1 encaplimit 100
ip netns exec B ip -6 a a 2001:db8:$i::2/64 dev ip6gre$i
ip netns exec B ip link set ip6gre$i up
done

Allowing high order page allocation could fix this problem.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ptp: ocp: Fix a resource leak in an error handling path
If an error occurs after a successful 'pci_ioremap_bar()' call, it must be
undone by a corresponding 'pci_iounmap()' call, as already done in the
remove function.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
octeontx2-pf: fix a buffer overflow in otx2_set_rxfh_context()
This function is called from ethtool_set_rxfh() and "*rss_context"
comes from the user. Add some bounds checking to prevent memory
corruption.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: fujitsu: fix potential null-ptr-deref
In fmvj18x_get_hwinfo(), if ioremap fails there will be NULL pointer
deref. To fix this, check the return value of ioremap and return -1
to the caller in case of failure.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: fec: fix the potential memory leak in fec_enet_init()
If the memory allocated for cbd_base is failed, it should
free the memory allocated for the queues, otherwise it causes
memory leak.
And if the memory allocated for the queues is failed, it can
return error directly.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
interconnect: qcom: bcm-voter: add a missing of_node_put()
Add a missing of_node_put() in of_bcm_voter_get() to avoid the
reference leak.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: fix data stream corruption
Maxim reported several issues when forcing a TCP transparent proxy
to use the MPTCP protocol for the inbound connections. He also
provided a clean reproducer.
The problem boils down to 'mptcp_frag_can_collapse_to()' assuming
that only MPTCP will use the given page_frag.
If others - e.g. the plain TCP protocol - allocate page fragments,
we can end-up re-using already allocated memory for mptcp_data_frag.
Fix the issue ensuring that the to-be-expanded data fragment is
located at the current page frag end.
v1 -> v2:
- added missing fixes tag (Mat)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: i801: Don't generate an interrupt on bus reset
Now that the i2c-i801 driver supports interrupts, setting the KILL bit
in a attempt to recover from a timed out transaction triggers an
interrupt. Unfortunately, the interrupt handler (i801_isr) is not
prepared for this situation and will try to process the interrupt as
if it was signaling the end of a successful transaction. In the case
of a block transaction, this can result in an out-of-range memory
access.
This condition was reproduced several times by syzbot:

https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=8c8dedc0ba9e03f6c79e

https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=b4d3fd1dfd53e90afd79
So disable interrupts while trying to reset the bus. Interrupts will
be enabled again for the following transaction.
Dell PowerScale OneFS 9.5.0.x through 9.7.0.x contain a covert timing channel vulnerability. A remote unauthenticated attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to denial of service.
