Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In May 2024
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:
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().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdkfd: Confirm list is non-empty before utilizing list_first_entry in kfd_topology.c
Before using list_first_entry, make sure to check that list is not
empty, if list is empty return -ENODATA.
Fixes the below:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
of: Fix double free in of_parse_phandle_with_args_map
In of_parse_phandle_with_args_map() the inner loop that
iterates through the map entries calls of_node_put(new)
to free the reference acquired by the previous iteration
of the inner loop. This assumes that the value of "new" is
NULL on the first iteration of the inner loop.
Make sure that this is true in all iterations of the outer
loop by setting "new" to NULL after its value is assigned to "cur".
Extend the unittest to detect the double free and add an additional
test case that actually triggers this path.

ALSA: scarlett2: Add missing error checks to *_ctl_get()
The *_ctl_get() functions which call scarlett2_update_*() were not
checking the return value. Fix to check the return value and pass to
the caller.
