Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In May 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ixgbe: Fix NULL pointer dereference in ixgbe_xdp_setup
The ixgbe driver currently generates a NULL pointer dereference with
some machine (online cpus < 63). This is due to the fact that the
maximum value of num_xdp_queues is nr_cpu_ids. Code is in
"ixgbe_set_rss_queues"".
Here's how the problem repeats itself:
Some machine (online cpus < 63), And user set num_queues to 63 through
ethtool. Code is in the "ixgbe_set_channels",
adapter->ring_feature[RING_F_FDIR].limit = count;
It becomes 63.
When user use xdp, "ixgbe_set_rss_queues" will set queues num.
adapter->num_rx_queues = rss_i;
adapter->num_tx_queues = rss_i;
adapter->num_xdp_queues = ixgbe_xdp_queues(adapter);
And rss_i's value is from
f = &adapter->ring_feature[RING_F_FDIR];
rss_i = f->indices = f->limit;
So "num_rx_queues" > "num_xdp_queues", when run to "ixgbe_xdp_setup",
for (i = 0; i < adapter->num_rx_queues; i++)
if (adapter->xdp_ring[i]->xsk_umem)
It leads to panic.

So I fix ixgbe_max_channels so that it will not allow a setting of queues
to be higher than the num_online_cpus(). And when run to ixgbe_xdp_setup,
take the smaller value of num_rx_queues and num_xdp_queues.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: hns3: do not allow call hns3_nic_net_open repeatedly
hns3_nic_net_open() is not allowed to called repeatly, but there
is no checking for this. When doing device reset and setup tc
concurrently, there is a small oppotunity to call hns3_nic_net_open
repeatedly, and cause kernel bug by calling napi_enable twice.

Once hns3_nic_net_open() is excute success, the flag
HNS3_NIC_STATE_DOWN will be cleared. So add checking for this
flag, directly return when HNS3_NIC_STATE_DOWN is no set.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipack: ipoctal: fix stack information leak
The tty driver name is used also after registering the driver and must
specifically not be allocated on the stack to avoid leaking information
to user space (or triggering an oops).
Drivers should not try to encode topology information in the tty device
name but this one snuck in through staging without anyone noticing and
another driver has since copied this malpractice.
Fixing the ABI is a separate issue, but this at least plugs the security
hole.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: sched: flower: protect fl_walk() with rcu
Patch that refactored fl_walk() to use idr_for_each_entry_continue_ul()
also removed rcu protection of individual filters which causes following
use-after-free when filter is deleted concurrently. Fix fl_walk() to obtain
rcu read lock while iterating and taking the filter reference and temporary
release the lock while calling arg->fn() callback that can sleep.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipack: ipoctal: fix module reference leak
A reference to the carrier module was taken on every open but was only
released once when the final reference to the tty struct was dropped.
Fix this by taking the module reference and initialising the tty driver
data when installing the tty.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: betop: fix slab-out-of-bounds Write in betop_probe
Syzbot reported slab-out-of-bounds Write bug in hid-betopff driver.
The problem is the driver assumes the device must have an input report but
some malicious devices violate this assumption.
So this patch checks hid_device's input is non empty before it's been used.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (w83792d) Fix NULL pointer dereference by removing unnecessary structure field
If driver read val value sufficient for
(val & 0x08) && (!(val & 0x80)) && ((val & 0x7) == ((val >> 4) & 0x7))
from device then Null pointer dereference occurs.
(It is possible if tmp = 0b0xyz1xyz, where same literals mean same numbers)
Also lm75[] does not serve a purpose anymore after switching to
devm_i2c_new_dummy_device() in w83791d_detect_subclients().
The patch fixes possible NULL pointer dereference by removing lm75[].
Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mac80211: fix use-after-free in CCMP/GCMP RX
When PN checking is done in mac80211, for fragmentation we need
to copy the PN to the RX struct so we can later use it to do a
comparison, since commit bf30ca922a0c ("mac80211: check defrag
PN against current frame").
Unfortunately, in that commit I used the 'hdr' variable without
it being necessarily valid, so use-after-free could occur if it
was necessary to reallocate (parts of) the frame.
Fix this by reloading the variable after the code that results
in the reallocations, if any.
This fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=214401.
