Security Vulnerabilities

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: fix RCU use in TDLS fast-xmit
This looks up the link under RCU protection, but isn't
guaranteed to actually have protection. Fix that.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm/dpu: check for valid hw_pp in dpu_encoder_helper_phys_cleanup
The commit 8b45a26f2ba9 ("drm/msm/dpu: reserve cdm blocks for writeback
in case of YUV output") introduced a smatch warning about another
conditional block in dpu_encoder_helper_phys_cleanup() which had assumed
hw_pp will always be valid which may not necessarily be true.
Lets fix the other conditional block by making sure hw_pp is valid
before dereferencing it.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nft_limit: reject configurations that cause integer overflow
Reject bogus configs where internal token counter wraps around.
This only occurs with very very large requests, such as 17gbyte/s.
Its better to reject this rather than having incorrect ratelimit.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: flower: Fix chain template offload
When a qdisc is deleted from a net device the stack instructs the
underlying driver to remove its flow offload callback from the
associated filter block using the 'FLOW_BLOCK_UNBIND' command. The stack
then continues to replay the removal of the filters in the block for
this driver by iterating over the chains in the block and invoking the
'reoffload' operation of the classifier being used. In turn, the
classifier in its 'reoffload' operation prepares and emits a
'FLOW_CLS_DESTROY' command for each filter.
However, the stack does not do the same for chain templates and the
underlying driver never receives a 'FLOW_CLS_TMPLT_DESTROY' command when
a qdisc is deleted. This results in a memory leak [1] which can be
reproduced using [2].
Fix by introducing a 'tmplt_reoffload' operation and have the stack
invoke it with the appropriate arguments as part of the replay.
Implement the operation in the sole classifier that supports chain
templates (flower) by emitting the 'FLOW_CLS_TMPLT_{CREATE,DESTROY}'
command based on whether a flow offload callback is being bound to a
filter block or being unbound from one.
As far as I can tell, the issue happens since cited commit which
reordered tcf_block_offload_unbind() before tcf_block_flush_all_chains()
in __tcf_block_put(). The order cannot be reversed as the filter block
is expected to be freed after flushing all the chains.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: entry: fix ARM64_WORKAROUND_SPECULATIVE_UNPRIV_LOAD
Currently the ARM64_WORKAROUND_SPECULATIVE_UNPRIV_LOAD workaround isn't
quite right, as it is supposed to be applied after the last explicit
memory access, but is immediately followed by an LDR.
The ARM64_WORKAROUND_SPECULATIVE_UNPRIV_LOAD workaround is used to
handle Cortex-A520 erratum 2966298 and Cortex-A510 erratum 3117295,
which are described in:
* https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN2444153/0600/?lang=en
* https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN1873361/1600/?lang=en
In both cases the workaround is described as:
| If pagetable isolation is disabled, the context switch logic in the
| kernel can be updated to execute the following sequence on affected
| cores before exiting to EL0, and after all explicit memory accesses:
|
| 1. A non-shareable TLBI to any context and/or address, including
| unused contexts or addresses, such as a `TLBI VALE1 Xzr`.
|
| 2. A DSB NSH to guarantee completion of the TLBI.
The important part being that the TLBI+DSB must be placed "after all
explicit memory accesses".
Unfortunately, as-implemented, the TLBI+DSB is immediately followed by
an LDR, as we have:
| alternative_if ARM64_WORKAROUND_SPECULATIVE_UNPRIV_LOAD
| tlbi vale1, xzr
| dsb nsh
| alternative_else_nop_endif
| alternative_if_not ARM64_UNMAP_KERNEL_AT_EL0
| ldr lr, [sp, #S_LR]
| add sp, sp, #PT_REGS_SIZE // restore sp
| eret
| alternative_else_nop_endif
|
| [ ... KPTI exception return path ... ]
This patch fixes this by reworking the logic to place the TLBI+DSB
immediately before the ERET, after all explicit memory accesses.
The ERET is currently in a separate alternative block, and alternatives
cannot be nested. To account for this, the alternative block for
ARM64_UNMAP_KERNEL_AT_EL0 is replaced with a single alternative branch
to skip the KPTI logic, with the new shape of the logic being:
| alternative_insn "b .L_skip_tramp_exit_\@", nop, ARM64_UNMAP_KERNEL_AT_EL0
| [ ... KPTI exception return path ... ]
| .L_skip_tramp_exit_\@:
|
| ldr lr, [sp, #S_LR]
| add sp, sp, #PT_REGS_SIZE // restore sp
|
| alternative_if ARM64_WORKAROUND_SPECULATIVE_UNPRIV_LOAD
| tlbi vale1, xzr
| dsb nsh
| alternative_else_nop_endif
| eret
The new structure means that the workaround is only applied when KPTI is
not in use; this is fine as noted in the documented implications of the
erratum:
| Pagetable isolation between EL0 and higher level ELs prevents the
| issue from occurring.
... and as per the workaround description quoted above, the workaround
is only necessary "If pagetable isolation is disabled".
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
blk-mq: fix IO hang from sbitmap wakeup race
In blk_mq_mark_tag_wait(), __add_wait_queue() may be re-ordered
with the following blk_mq_get_driver_tag() in case of getting driver
tag failure.
Then in __sbitmap_queue_wake_up(), waitqueue_active() may not observe
the added waiter in blk_mq_mark_tag_wait() and wake up nothing, meantime
blk_mq_mark_tag_wait() can't get driver tag successfully.
This issue can be reproduced by running the following test in loop, and
fio hang can be observed in < 30min when running it on my test VM
in laptop.
modprobe -r scsi_debug
modprobe scsi_debug delay=0 dev_size_mb=4096 max_queue=1 host_max_queue=1 submit_queues=4
dev=`ls -d /sys/bus/pseudo/drivers/scsi_debug/adapter*/host*/target*/*/block/* | head -1 | xargs basename`
fio --filename=/dev/"$dev" --direct=1 --rw=randrw --bs=4k --iodepth=1 \
--runtime=100 --numjobs=40 --time_based --name=test \
--ioengine=libaio
Fix the issue by adding one explicit barrier in blk_mq_mark_tag_wait(), which
is just fine in case of running out of tag.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: Fix variable 'mca_funcs' dereferenced before NULL check in 'amdgpu_mca_smu_get_mca_entry()'
Fixes the below:
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_mca.c:377 amdgpu_mca_smu_get_mca_entry() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'mca_funcs' (see line 368)
357 int amdgpu_mca_smu_get_mca_entry(struct amdgpu_device *adev,
enum amdgpu_mca_error_type type,
358 int idx, struct mca_bank_entry *entry)
359 {
360 const struct amdgpu_mca_smu_funcs *mca_funcs =
adev->mca.mca_funcs;
361 int count;
362
363 switch (type) {
364 case AMDGPU_MCA_ERROR_TYPE_UE:
365 count = mca_funcs->max_ue_count;
mca_funcs is dereferenced here.
366 break;
367 case AMDGPU_MCA_ERROR_TYPE_CE:
368 count = mca_funcs->max_ce_count;
mca_funcs is dereferenced here.
369 break;
370 default:
371 return -EINVAL;
372 }
373
374 if (idx >= count)
375 return -EINVAL;
376
377 if (mca_funcs && mca_funcs->mca_get_mca_entry)
^^^^^^^^^

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nft_ct: sanitize layer 3 and 4 protocol number in custom expectations
- Disallow families other than NFPROTO_{IPV4,IPV6,INET}.
- Disallow layer 4 protocol with no ports, since destination port is a
mandatory attribute for this object.
in OpenHarmony v3.2.4 and prior versions allow a local attacker cause apps crash through get permission.
in OpenHarmony v4.0.0 and prior versions allow a local attacker cause DOS through use after free.
