Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In May 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/powernv: Add a null pointer check to scom_debug_init_one()
kasprintf() returns a pointer to dynamically allocated memory
which can be NULL upon failure.
Add a null pointer check, and release 'ent' to avoid memory leaks.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/pm: fix a double-free in si_dpm_init
When the allocation of
adev->pm.dpm.dyn_state.vddc_dependency_on_dispclk.entries fails,
amdgpu_free_extended_power_table is called to free some fields of adev.
However, when the control flow returns to si_dpm_sw_init, it goes to
label dpm_failed and calls si_dpm_fini, which calls
amdgpu_free_extended_power_table again and free those fields again. Thus
a double-free is triggered.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: scarlett2: Add missing error check to scarlett2_usb_set_config()
scarlett2_usb_set_config() calls scarlett2_usb_get() but was not
checking the result. Return the error if it fails rather than
continuing with an invalid value.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPI: video: check for error while searching for backlight device parent
If acpi_get_parent() called in acpi_video_dev_register_backlight()
fails, for example, because acpi_ut_acquire_mutex() fails inside
acpi_get_parent), this can lead to incorrect (uninitialized)
acpi_parent handle being passed to acpi_get_pci_dev() for detecting
the parent pci device.
Check acpi_get_parent() result and set parent device only in case of success.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/bridge: tpd12s015: Drop buggy __exit annotation for remove function
With tpd12s015_remove() marked with __exit this function is discarded
when the driver is compiled as a built-in. The result is that when the
driver unbinds there is no cleanup done which results in resource
leakage or worse.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Check writeback connectors in create_validate_stream_for_sink
[WHY & HOW]
This is to check connector type to avoid
unhandled null pointer for writeback connectors.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: Intel: sof_sdw_rt_sdca_jack_common: ctx->headset_codec_dev = NULL
sof_sdw_rt_sdca_jack_exit() are used by different codecs, and some of
them use the same dai name.
For example, rt712 and rt713 both use "rt712-sdca-aif1" and
sof_sdw_rt_sdca_jack_exit().
As a result, sof_sdw_rt_sdca_jack_exit() will be called twice by
mc_dailink_exit_loop(). Set ctx->headset_codec_dev = NULL; after
put_device(ctx->headset_codec_dev); to avoid ctx->headset_codec_dev
being put twice.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
calipso: fix memory leak in netlbl_calipso_add_pass()
If IPv6 support is disabled at boot (ipv6.disable=1),
the calipso_init() -> netlbl_calipso_ops_register() function isn't called,
and the netlbl_calipso_ops_get() function always returns NULL.
In this case, the netlbl_calipso_add_pass() function allocates memory
for the doi_def variable but doesn't free it with the calipso_doi_free().
BUG: memory leak
