Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In May 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Fix hang/underflow when transitioning to ODM4:1
[Why]
Under some circumstances, disabling an OPTC and attempting to reclaim
its OPP(s) for a different OPTC could cause a hang/underflow due to OPPs
not being properly disconnected from the disabled OPTC.
[How]
Ensure that all OPPs are unassigned from an OPTC when it gets disabled.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pipe: wakeup wr_wait after setting max_usage
Commit c73be61cede5 ("pipe: Add general notification queue support") a
regression was introduced that would lock up resized pipes under certain
conditions. See the reproducer in [1].
The commit resizing the pipe ring size was moved to a different
function, doing that moved the wakeup for pipe->wr_wait before actually
raising pipe->max_usage. If a pipe was full before the resize occured it
would result in the wakeup never actually triggering pipe_write.
Set @max_usage and @nr_accounted before waking writers if this isn't a
watch queue.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Fix a debugfs null pointer error
[WHY & HOW]
Check whether get_subvp_en() callback exists before calling it.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: fix a potential double-free in fs_any_create_groups
When kcalloc() for ft->g succeeds but kvzalloc() for in fails,
fs_any_create_groups() will free ft->g. However, its caller
fs_any_create_table() will free ft->g again through calling
mlx5e_destroy_flow_table(), which will lead to a double-free.
Fix this by setting ft->g to NULL in fs_any_create_groups().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: zoned: fix lock ordering in btrfs_zone_activate()
The btrfs CI reported a lockdep warning as follows by running generic
generic/129.
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
6.7.0-rc5+ #1 Not tainted
------------------------------------------------------
kworker/u5:5/793427 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff88813256d028 (&cache->lock){+.+.}-{2:2}, at: btrfs_zone_finish_one_bg+0x5e/0x130
but task is already holding lock:
ffff88810a23a318 (&fs_info->zone_active_bgs_lock){+.+.}-{2:2}, at: btrfs_zone_finish_one_bg+0x34/0x130
which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
-> #1 (&fs_info->zone_active_bgs_lock){+.+.}-{2:2}:
...
-> #0 (&cache->lock){+.+.}-{2:2}:
...
This is because we take fs_info->zone_active_bgs_lock after a block_group's
lock in btrfs_zone_activate() while doing the opposite in other places.
Fix the issue by expanding the fs_info->zone_active_bgs_lock's critical
section and taking it before a block_group's lock.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: s390/aes - Fix buffer overread in CTR mode
When processing the last block, the s390 ctr code will always read
a whole block, even if there isn't a whole block of data left. Fix
this by using the actual length left and copy it into a buffer first
for processing.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/tegra: rgb: Fix missing clk_put() in the error handling paths of tegra_dc_rgb_probe()
If clk_get_sys(..., "pll_d2_out0") fails, the clk_get_sys() call must be
undone.
Add the missing clk_put and a new 'put_pll_d_out0' label in the error
handling path, and use it.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/vmwgfx: fix a memleak in vmw_gmrid_man_get_node
When ida_alloc_max fails, resources allocated before should be freed,
including *res allocated by kmalloc and ttm_resource_init.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: SOF: amd: Fix memory leak in amd_sof_acp_probe()
Driver uses kasprintf() to initialize fw_{code,data}_bin members of
struct acp_dev_data, but kfree() is never called to deallocate the
memory, which results in a memory leak.
Fix the issue by switching to devm_kasprintf(). Additionally, ensure the
allocation was successful by checking the pointer validity.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: atlantic: eliminate double free in error handling logic
Driver has a logic leak in ring data allocation/free,
where aq_ring_free could be called multiple times on same ring,
if system is under stress and got memory allocation error.
Ring pointer was used as an indicator of failure, but this is
not correct since only ring data is allocated/deallocated.
Ring itself is an array member.
Changing ring allocation functions to return error code directly.
This simplifies error handling and eliminates aq_ring_free
on higher layer.
