Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In May 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
icmp: prevent possible NULL dereferences from icmp_build_probe()
First problem is a double call to __in_dev_get_rcu(), because
the second one could return NULL.
if (__in_dev_get_rcu(dev) && __in_dev_get_rcu(dev)->ifa_list)
Second problem is a read from dev->ip6_ptr with no NULL check:
if (!list_empty(&rcu_dereference(dev->ip6_ptr)->addr_list))
Use the correct RCU API to fix these.
v2: add missing include <net/addrconf.h>
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bcmasp: fix memory leak when bringing down interface
When bringing down the TX rings we flush the rings but forget to
reclaimed the flushed packets. This leads to a memory leak since we
do not free the dma mapped buffers. This also leads to tx control
block corruption when bringing down the interface for power
management.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: fix module reference leakage from bdev_open_by_dev error path
At the time bdev_may_open() is called, module reference is grabbed
already, hence module reference should be released if bdev_may_open()
failed.
This problem is found by code review.
A vulnerability has been found in SourceCodester Gas Agency Management System 1.0 and classified as critical. This vulnerability affects unknown code of the file edituser.php. The manipulation of the argument id leads to sql injection. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-264748.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mlxsw: spectrum_acl_tcam: Fix memory leak when canceling rehash work
The rehash delayed work is rescheduled with a delay if the number of
credits at end of the work is not negative as supposedly it means that
the migration ended. Otherwise, it is rescheduled immediately.
After "mlxsw: spectrum_acl_tcam: Fix possible use-after-free during
rehash" the above is no longer accurate as a non-negative number of
credits is no longer indicative of the migration being done. It can also
happen if the work encountered an error in which case the migration will
resume the next time the work is scheduled.
The significance of the above is that it is possible for the work to be
pending and associated with hints that were allocated when the migration
started. This leads to the hints being leaked [1] when the work is
canceled while pending as part of ACL region dismantle.
Fix by freeing the hints if hints are associated with a work that was
canceled while pending.
Blame the original commit since the reliance on not having a pending
work associated with hints is fragile.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mlxsw: spectrum_acl_tcam: Fix memory leak during rehash
The rehash delayed work migrates filters from one region to another.
This is done by iterating over all chunks (all the filters with the same
priority) in the region and in each chunk iterating over all the
filters.
If the migration fails, the code tries to migrate the filters back to
the old region. However, the rollback itself can also fail in which case
another migration will be erroneously performed. Besides the fact that
this ping pong is not a very good idea, it also creates a problem.
Each virtual chunk references two chunks: The currently used one
('vchunk->chunk') and a backup ('vchunk->chunk2'). During migration the
first holds the chunk we want to migrate filters to and the second holds
the chunk we are migrating filters from.
The code currently assumes - but does not verify - that the backup chunk
does not exist (NULL) if the currently used chunk does not reference the
target region. This assumption breaks when we are trying to rollback a
rollback, resulting in the backup chunk being overwritten and leaked
[1].
Fix by not rolling back a failed rollback and add a warning to avoid
future cases.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mlxsw: spectrum_acl_tcam: Fix possible use-after-free during rehash
The rehash delayed work migrates filters from one region to another
according to the number of available credits.
The migrated from region is destroyed at the end of the work if the
number of credits is non-negative as the assumption is that this is
indicative of migration being complete. This assumption is incorrect as
a non-negative number of credits can also be the result of a failed
migration.
The destruction of a region that still has filters referencing it can
result in a use-after-free [1].
Fix by not destroying the region if migration failed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mlxsw: spectrum_acl_tcam: Fix possible use-after-free during activity update
The rule activity update delayed work periodically traverses the list of
configured rules and queries their activity from the device.
As part of this task it accesses the entry pointed by 'ventry->entry',
but this entry can be changed concurrently by the rehash delayed work,
leading to a use-after-free [1].
Fix by closing the race and perform the activity query under the
'vregion->lock' mutex.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: btusb: mediatek: Fix double free of skb in coredump
hci_devcd_append() would free the skb on error so the caller don't
have to free it again otherwise it would cause the double free of skb.
Reported-by : Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@linaro.org>
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: bridge: replace physindev with physinif in nf_bridge_info
An skb can be added to a neigh->arp_queue while waiting for an arp
reply. Where original skb's skb->dev can be different to neigh's
neigh->dev. For instance in case of bridging dnated skb from one veth to
another, the skb would be added to a neigh->arp_queue of the bridge.
As skb->dev can be reset back to nf_bridge->physindev and used, and as
there is no explicit mechanism that prevents this physindev from been
freed under us (for instance neigh_flush_dev doesn't cleanup skbs from
different device's neigh queue) we can crash on e.g. this stack:
arp_process
neigh_update
skb = __skb_dequeue(&neigh->arp_queue)
neigh_resolve_output(..., skb)
...
br_nf_dev_xmit
br_nf_pre_routing_finish_bridge_slow
skb->dev = nf_bridge->physindev
br_handle_frame_finish
Let's use plain ifindex instead of net_device link. To peek into the
original net_device we will use dev_get_by_index_rcu(). Thus either we
get device and are safe to use it or we don't get it and drop skb.
