Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In May 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
blk-mq: make sure active queue usage is held for bio_integrity_prep()
blk_integrity_unregister() can come if queue usage counter isn't held
for one bio with integrity prepared, so this request may be completed with
calling profile->complete_fn, then kernel panic.
Another constraint is that bio_integrity_prep() needs to be called
before bio merge.
Fix the issue by:
- call bio_integrity_prep() with one queue usage counter grabbed reliably
- call bio_integrity_prep() before bio merge
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i915/perf: Fix NULL deref bugs with drm_dbg() calls
When i915 perf interface is not available dereferencing it will lead to
NULL dereferences.
As returning -ENOTSUPP is pretty clear return when perf interface is not
available.
[tursulin: added stable tag]
(cherry picked from commit 36f27350ff745bd228ab04d7845dfbffc177a889)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tty: vcc: Add check for kstrdup() in vcc_probe()
Add check for the return value of kstrdup() and return the error, if it
fails in order to avoid NULL pointer dereference.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
swiotlb: fix out-of-bounds TLB allocations with CONFIG_SWIOTLB_DYNAMIC
Limit the free list length to the size of the IO TLB. Transient pool can be
smaller than IO_TLB_SEGSIZE, but the free list is initialized with the
assumption that the total number of slots is a multiple of IO_TLB_SEGSIZE.
As a result, swiotlb_area_find_slots() may allocate slots past the end of
a transient IO TLB buffer.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: core: Run atomic i2c xfer when !preemptible
Since bae1d3a05a8b, i2c transfers are non-atomic if preemption is
disabled. However, non-atomic i2c transfers require preemption (e.g. in
wait_for_completion() while waiting for the DMA).
panic() calls preempt_disable_notrace() before calling
emergency_restart(). Therefore, if an i2c device is used for the
restart, the xfer should be atomic. This avoids warnings like:
[ 12.667612] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 1 at kernel/rcu/tree_plugin.h:318 rcu_note_context_switch+0x33c/0x6b0

[ 13.001050] machine_restart from panic+0x2a8/0x32c
Use !preemptible() instead, which is basically the same check as
pre-v5.2.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cxl/region: Do not try to cleanup after cxl_region_setup_targets() fails
Commit 5e42bcbc3fef ("cxl/region: decrement ->nr_targets on error in
cxl_region_attach()") tried to avoid 'eiw' initialization errors when
->nr_targets exceeded 16, by just decrementing ->nr_targets when
cxl_region_setup_targets() failed.
Commit 86987c766276 ("cxl/region: Cleanup target list on attach error")
extended that cleanup to also clear cxled->pos and p->targets[pos]. The
initialization error was incidentally fixed separately by:
Commit 8d4285425714 ("cxl/region: Fix port setup uninitialized variable
warnings") which was merged a few days after 5e42bcbc3fef.
But now the original cleanup when cxl_region_setup_targets() fails
prevents endpoint and switch decoder resources from being reused:
1) the cleanup does not set the decoder's region to NULL, which results
in future dpa_size_store() calls returning -EBUSY
2) the decoder is not properly freed, which results in future commit
errors associated with the upstream switch
Now that the initialization errors were fixed separately, the proper
cleanup for this case is to just return immediately. Then the resources
associated with this target get cleanup up as normal when the failed
region is deleted.
The ->nr_targets decrement in the error case also helped prevent
a p->targets[] array overflow, so add a new check to prevent against
that overflow.
Tested by trying to create an invalid region for a 2 switch * 2 endpoint
topology, and then following up with creating a valid region.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath12k: fix htt mlo-offset event locking
The ath12k active pdevs are protected by RCU but the htt mlo-offset
event handling code calling ath12k_mac_get_ar_by_pdev_id() was not
marked as a read-side critical section.
Mark the code in question as an RCU read-side critical section to avoid
any potential use-after-free issues.
Compile tested only.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: split initial and dynamic conditions for extent_cache
Let's allocate the extent_cache tree without dynamic conditions to avoid a
missing condition causing a panic as below.
# create a file w/ a compressed flag
# disable the compression
# panic while updating extent_cache
F2FS-fs (dm-64): Swapfile: last extent is not aligned to section
F2FS-fs (dm-64): Swapfile (3) is not align to section: 1) creat(), 2) ioctl(F2FS_IOC_SET_PIN_FILE), 3) fallocate(2097152 * N)
Adding 124996k swap on ./swap-file. Priority:0 extents:2 across:17179494468k

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cxl/port: Fix delete_endpoint() vs parent unregistration race
The CXL subsystem, at cxl_mem ->probe() time, establishes a lineage of
ports (struct cxl_port objects) between an endpoint and the root of a
CXL topology. Each port including the endpoint port is attached to the
cxl_port driver.
Given that setup, it follows that when either any port in that lineage
goes through a cxl_port ->remove() event, or the memdev goes through a
cxl_mem ->remove() event. The hierarchy below the removed port, or the
entire hierarchy if the memdev is removed needs to come down.
The delete_endpoint() callback is careful to check whether it is being
called to tear down the hierarchy, or if it is only being called to
teardown the memdev because an ancestor port is going through
->remove().
That care needs to take the device_lock() of the endpoint's parent.
Which requires 2 bugs to be fixed:
1/ A reference on the parent is needed to prevent use-after-free
scenarios like this signature:

2/ In the case of RCH topologies, the parent device that needs to be
locked is not always @port->dev as returned by cxl_mem_find_port(), use
endpoint->dev.parent instead.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
af_unix: fix use-after-free in unix_stream_read_actor()
