Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In May 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: qca: fix NULL-deref on non-serdev suspend
Qualcomm ROME controllers can be registered from the Bluetooth line
discipline and in this case the HCI UART serdev pointer is NULL.
Add the missing sanity check to prevent a NULL-pointer dereference when
wakeup() is called for a non-serdev controller during suspend.
Just return true for now to restore the original behaviour and address
the crash with pre-6.2 kernels, which do not have commit e9b3e5b8c657
("Bluetooth: hci_qca: only assign wakeup with serial port support") that
causes the crash to happen already at setup() time.

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().
