Security Vulnerabilities

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sfc: fix TX channel offset when using legacy interrupts
In legacy interrupt mode the tx_channel_offset was hardcoded to 1, but
that's not correct if efx_sepparate_tx_channels is false. In that case,
the offset is 0 because the tx queues are in the single existing channel
at index 0, together with the rx queue.
Without this fix, as soon as you try to send any traffic, it tries to
get the tx queues from an uninitialized channel getting these errors:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sfc: fix null pointer dereference in efx_hard_start_xmit
Trying to get the channel from the tx_queue variable here is wrong
because we can only be here if tx_queue is NULL, so we shouldn't
dereference it. As the above comment in the code says, this is very
unlikely to happen, but it's wrong anyway so let's fix it.
I hit this issue because of a different bug that caused tx_queue to be
NULL. If that happens, this is the error message that we get here:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000020

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/slab_common: fix possible double free of kmem_cache
When doing slub_debug test, kfence's 'test_memcache_typesafe_by_rcu'
kunit test case cause a use-after-free error:

The cause is inside kmem_cache_destroy():
kmem_cache_destroy
acquire lock/mutex
shutdown_cache
schedule_work(kmem_cache_release) (if RCU flag set)
release lock/mutex
kmem_cache_release (if RCU flag not set)
In some certain timing, the scheduled work could be run before
the next RCU flag checking, which can then get a wrong value
and lead to double kmem_cache_release().
Fix it by caching the RCU flag inside protected area, just like 'refcnt'
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: qla2xxx: Fix memory leak in __qlt_24xx_handle_abts()
Commit 8f394da36a36 ("scsi: qla2xxx: Drop TARGET_SCF_LOOKUP_LUN_FROM_TAG")
made the __qlt_24xx_handle_abts() function return early if
tcm_qla2xxx_find_cmd_by_tag() didn't find a command, but it missed to clean
up the allocated memory for the management command.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipvlan: Fix out-of-bound bugs caused by unset skb->mac_header
If an AF_PACKET socket is used to send packets through ipvlan and the
default xmit function of the AF_PACKET socket is changed from
dev_queue_xmit() to packet_direct_xmit() via setsockopt() with the option
name of PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS, the skb->mac_header may not be reset and
remains as the initial value of 65535, this may trigger slab-out-of-bounds
bugs as following:
=================================================================

entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd
The root cause is:
1. packet_snd() only reset skb->mac_header when sock->type is SOCK_RAW
and skb->protocol is not specified as in packet_parse_headers()
2. packet_direct_xmit() doesn't reset skb->mac_header as dev_queue_xmit()
In this case, skb->mac_header is 65535 when ipvlan_xmit_mode_l2() is
called. So when ipvlan_xmit_mode_l2() gets mac header with eth_hdr() which
use "skb->head + skb->mac_header", out-of-bound access occurs.
This patch replaces eth_hdr() with skb_eth_hdr() in ipvlan_xmit_mode_l2()
and reset mac header in multicast to solve this out-of-bound bug.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: Fix crash by keep old cfg when update TCs more than queues
There are problems if allocated queues less than Traffic Classes.
Commit a632b2a4c920 ("ice: ethtool: Prohibit improper channel config
for DCB") already disallow setting less queues than TCs.
Another case is if we first set less queues, and later update more TCs
config due to LLDP, ice_vsi_cfg_tc() will failed but left dirty
num_txq/rxq and tc_cfg in vsi, that will cause invalid pointer access.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: Don't double unplug aux on peer initiated reset
In the IDC callback that is accessed when the aux drivers request a reset,
the function to unplug the aux devices is called. This function is also
called in the ice_prepare_for_reset function. This double call is causing
a "scheduling while atomic" BUG.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nfnetlink_osf: fix possible bogus match in nf_osf_find()
nf_osf_find() incorrectly returns true on mismatch, this leads to
copying uninitialized memory area in nft_osf which can be used to leak
stale kernel stack data to userspace.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Harden accesses to the reset domains
Accessing reset domains descriptors by the index upon the SCMI drivers
requests through the SCMI reset operations interface can potentially
lead to out-of-bound violations if the SCMI driver misbehave.
Add an internal consistency check before any such domains descriptors
accesses.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: ti: k3-udma-private: Fix refcount leak bug in of_xudma_dev_get()
We should call of_node_put() for the reference returned by
of_parse_phandle() in fail path or when it is not used anymore.
Here we only need to move the of_node_put() before the check.
