Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In May 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: Fix NULL dereference on XCOPY completion
CPU affinity control added with commit 39ae3edda325 ("scsi: target: core:
Make completion affinity configurable") makes target_complete_cmd() queue
work on a CPU based on se_tpg->se_tpg_wwn->cmd_compl_affinity state.
LIO's EXTENDED COPY worker is a special case in that read/write cmds are
dispatched using the global xcopy_pt_tpg, which carries a NULL se_tpg_wwn
pointer following initialization in target_xcopy_setup_pt().
The NULL xcopy_pt_tpg->se_tpg_wwn pointer is dereferenced on completion of
any EXTENDED COPY initiated read/write cmds. E.g using the libiscsi
SCSI.ExtendedCopy.Simple test:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000000000001a8
RIP: 0010:target_complete_cmd+0x9d/0x130 [target_core_mod]

? transport_complete_task_attr+0x130/0x130 [target_core_mod]
target_xcopy_do_work+0x61f/0xc00 [target_core_mod]
This fix makes target_complete_cmd() queue work on se_cmd->cpuid if
se_tpg_wwn is NULL.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: fix another slab-out-of-bounds in fib6_nh_flush_exceptions
While running the self-tests on a KASAN enabled kernel, I observed a
slab-out-of-bounds splat very similar to the one reported in
commit 821bbf79fe46 ("ipv6: Fix KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds Read in
fib6_nh_flush_exceptions").
We additionally need to take care of fib6_metrics initialization
failure when the caller provides an nh.
The fix is similar, explicitly free the route instead of calling
fib6_info_release on a half-initialized object.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring: fix memleak in io_init_wq_offload()
I got memory leak report when doing fuzz test:

When calling io_uring_enter() in parallel, the 'hash_map' will be leaked,
add uring_lock to protect 'hash_map'.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: act_skbmod: Skip non-Ethernet packets
Currently tcf_skbmod_act() assumes that packets use Ethernet as their L2
protocol, which is not always the case. As an example, for CAN devices:
$ ip link add dev vcan0 type vcan
$ ip link set up vcan0
$ tc qdisc add dev vcan0 root handle 1: htb
$ tc filter add dev vcan0 parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 \
matchall action skbmod swap mac
Doing the above silently corrupts all the packets. Do not perform skbmod
actions for non-Ethernet packets.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netrom: Decrease sock refcount when sock timers expire
Commit 63346650c1a9 ("netrom: switch to sock timer API") switched to use
sock timer API. It replaces mod_timer() by sk_reset_timer(), and
del_timer() by sk_stop_timer().
Function sk_reset_timer() will increase the refcount of sock if it is
called on an inactive timer, hence, in case the timer expires, we need to
decrease the refcount ourselves in the handler, otherwise, the sock
refcount will be unbalanced and the sock will never be freed.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: sched: fix memory leak in tcindex_partial_destroy_work
Syzbot reported memory leak in tcindex_set_parms(). The problem was in
non-freed perfect hash in tcindex_partial_destroy_work().
In tcindex_set_parms() new tcindex_data is allocated and some fields from
old one are copied to new one, but not the perfect hash. Since
tcindex_partial_destroy_work() is the destroy function for old
tcindex_data, we need to free perfect hash to avoid memory leak.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: PPC: Fix kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl vcpu_load leak
vcpu_put is not called if the user copy fails. This can result in preempt
notifier corruption and crashes, among other issues.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: fix uninit-value in caif_seqpkt_sendmsg
When nr_segs equal to zero in iovec_from_user, the object
msg->msg_iter.iov is uninit stack memory in caif_seqpkt_sendmsg
which is defined in ___sys_sendmsg. So we cann't just judge
msg->msg_iter.iov->base directlly. We can use nr_segs to judge
msg in caif_seqpkt_sendmsg whether has data buffers.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, sockmap: Fix potential memory leak on unlikely error case
If skb_linearize is needed and fails we could leak a msg on the error
handling. To fix ensure we kfree the msg block before returning error.
Found during code review.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xdp, net: Fix use-after-free in bpf_xdp_link_release
The problem occurs between dev_get_by_index() and dev_xdp_attach_link().
At this point, dev_xdp_uninstall() is called. Then xdp link will not be
detached automatically when dev is released. But link->dev already
points to dev, when xdp link is released, dev will still be accessed,
but dev has been released.
