Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In April 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: hisi_sas: Fix a deadlock issue related to automatic dump
If we issue a disabling PHY command, the device attached with it will go
offline, if a 2 bit ECC error occurs at the same time, a hung task may be
found:

This is because when the device goes offline, we obtain the hisi_hba
semaphore and send the ABORT_DEV command to the device. However, the
internal abort timed out due to the 2 bit ECC error and triggers automatic
dump. In addition, since the hisi_hba semaphore has been obtained, the dump
cannot be executed and the controller cannot be reset.
Therefore, the deadlocks occur on the following circular dependencies

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/mediatek: Fix a null pointer crash in mtk_drm_crtc_finish_page_flip
It's possible that mtk_crtc->event is NULL in
mtk_drm_crtc_finish_page_flip().
pending_needs_vblank value is set by mtk_crtc->event, but in
mtk_drm_crtc_atomic_flush(), it's is not guarded by the same
lock in mtk_drm_finish_page_flip(), thus a race condition happens.
Consider the following case:
CPU1 CPU2
step 1:
mtk_drm_crtc_atomic_begin()
mtk_crtc->event is not null,
step 1:
mtk_drm_crtc_atomic_flush:
mtk_drm_crtc_update_config(
!!mtk_crtc->event)
step 2:
mtk_crtc_ddp_irq ->
mtk_drm_finish_page_flip:
lock
mtk_crtc->event set to null,
pending_needs_vblank set to false
unlock
pending_needs_vblank set to true,
step 2:
mtk_crtc_ddp_irq ->
mtk_drm_finish_page_flip called again,
pending_needs_vblank is still true
//null pointer
Instead of guarding the entire mtk_drm_crtc_atomic_flush(), it's more
efficient to just check if mtk_crtc->event is null before use.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Task A set disconnect_flag = !0, which resulted in Task B's condition being met
and releasing mp, leading to this issue.
[Fix]
Place the disconnect_flag assignment operation after all code in pvr2_context_disconnect()
to avoid this issue.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
quota: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference
Below race may cause NULL pointer dereference
P1 P2
dquot_free_inode quota_off
drop_dquot_ref
remove_dquot_ref
dquots = i_dquot(inode)
dquots = i_dquot(inode)
srcu_read_lock
dquots[cnt]) != NULL (1)
dquots[type] = NULL (2)
spin_lock(&dquots[cnt]->dq_dqb_lock) (3)
....
If dquot_free_inode(or other routines) checks inode's quota pointers (1)
before quota_off sets it to NULL(2) and use it (3) after that, NULL pointer
dereference will be triggered.
So let's fix it by using a temporary pointer to avoid this issue.

[jbrunet: add missing Fixes tag]
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm: call the resume method on internal suspend
There is this reported crash when experimenting with the lvm2 testsuite.
The list corruption is caused by the fact that the postsuspend and resume
methods were not paired correctly; there were two consecutive calls to the
origin_postsuspend function. The second call attempts to remove the
"hash_list" entry from a list, while it was already removed by the first
call.
Fix __dm_internal_resume so that it calls the preresume and resume
methods of the table's targets.
If a preresume method of some target fails, we are in a tricky situation.
We can't return an error because dm_internal_resume isn't supposed to
return errors. We can't return success, because then the "resume" and
"postsuspend" methods would not be paired correctly. So, we set the
DMF_SUSPENDED flag and we fake normal suspend - it may confuse userspace
tools, but it won't cause a kernel crash.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: b43: Stop/wake correct queue in DMA Tx path when QoS is disabled
When QoS is disabled, the queue priority value will not map to the correct
ieee80211 queue since there is only one queue. Stop/wake queue 0 when QoS
is disabled to prevent trying to stop/wake a non-existent queue and failing
to stop/wake the actual queue instantiated.
Log of issue before change (with kernel parameter qos=0):

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/rtas: use correct function name for resetting TCE tables
The PAPR spec spells the function name as
"ibm,reset-pe-dma-windows"
but in practice firmware uses the singular form:
"ibm,reset-pe-dma-window"
in the device tree. Since we have the wrong spelling in the RTAS
function table, reverse lookups (token -> name) fail and warn:
unexpected failed lookup for token 86

And oopses are possible when lockdep is enabled or the RTAS
tracepoints are active, since those paths dereference the result of
the lookup.
Use the correct spelling to match firmware's behavior, adjusting the
related constants to match.
