Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In May 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: dsa: microchip: Added the condition for scheduling ksz_mib_read_work
When the ksz module is installed and removed using rmmod, kernel crashes
with null pointer dereferrence error. During rmmod, ksz_switch_remove
function tries to cancel the mib_read_workqueue using
cancel_delayed_work_sync routine and unregister switch from dsa.
During dsa_unregister_switch it calls ksz_mac_link_down, which in turn
reschedules the workqueue since mib_interval is non-zero.
Due to which queue executed after mib_interval and it tries to access
dp->slave. But the slave is unregistered in the ksz_switch_remove
function. Hence kernel crashes.
To avoid this crash, before canceling the workqueue, resetted the
mib_interval to 0.
v1 -> v2:
-Removed the if condition in ksz_mib_read_work

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: encx24j600: check error in devm_regmap_init_encx24j600
devm_regmap_init may return error which caused by like out of memory,
this will results in null pointer dereference later when reading
or writing register:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mlxsw: thermal: Fix out-of-bounds memory accesses
Currently, mlxsw allows cooling states to be set above the maximum
cooling state supported by the driver:
# cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone2/cdev0/type
mlxsw_fan
# cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone2/cdev0/max_state
10
# echo 18 > /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone2/cdev0/cur_state
# echo $?
0
This results in out-of-bounds memory accesses when thermal state
transition statistics are enabled (CONFIG_THERMAL_STATISTICS=y), as the
transition table is accessed with a too large index (state) [1].
According to the thermal maintainer, it is the responsibility of the
driver to reject such operations [2].
Therefore, return an error when the state to be set exceeds the maximum
cooling state supported by the driver.
To avoid dead code, as suggested by the thermal maintainer [3],
partially revert commit a421ce088ac8 ("mlxsw: core: Extend cooling
device with cooling levels") that tried to interpret these invalid
cooling states (above the maximum) in a special way. The cooling levels
array is not removed in order to prevent the fans going below 20% PWM,
which would cause them to get stuck at 0% PWM.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/edid: In connector_bad_edid() cap num_of_ext by num_blocks read
In commit e11f5bd8228f ("drm: Add support for DP 1.4 Compliance edid
corruption test") the function connector_bad_edid() started assuming
that the memory for the EDID passed to it was big enough to hold
`edid[0x7e] + 1` blocks of data (1 extra for the base block). It
completely ignored the fact that the function was passed `num_blocks`
which indicated how much memory had been allocated for the EDID.
Let's fix this by adding a bounds check.
This is important for handling the case where there's an error in the
first block of the EDID. In that case we will call
connector_bad_edid() without having re-allocated memory based on
`edid[0x7e]`.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm: Fix null pointer dereference on pointer edp
The initialization of pointer dev dereferences pointer edp before
edp is null checked, so there is a potential null pointer deference
issue. Fix this by only dereferencing edp after edp has been null
checked.

drm/msm/a4xx: fix error handling in a4xx_gpu_init()
This code returns 1 on error instead of a negative error. It leads to
an Oops in the caller. A second problem is that the check for
"if (ret != -ENODATA)" cannot be true because "ret" is set to 1.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: fix possible stall on recvmsg()
recvmsg() can enter an infinite loop if the caller provides the
MSG_WAITALL, the data present in the receive queue is not sufficient to
fulfill the request, and no more data is received by the peer.
When the above happens, mptcp_wait_data() will always return with
no wait, as the MPTCP_DATA_READY flag checked by such function is
set and never cleared in such code path.
Leveraging the above syzbot was able to trigger an RCU stall:
