In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: Fix UAF in ieee80211_scan_rx()
ieee80211_scan_rx() tries to access scan_req->flags after a
null check, but a UAF is observed when the scan is completed
and __ieee80211_scan_completed() executes, which then calls
cfg80211_scan_done() leading to the freeing of scan_req.
Since scan_req is rcu_dereference()'d, prevent the racing in
__ieee80211_scan_completed() by ensuring that from mac80211's
POV it is no longer accessed from an RCU read critical section
before we call cfg80211_scan_done().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
alloc_tag: allocate percpu counters for module tags dynamically
When a module gets unloaded it checks whether any of its tags are still in
use and if so, we keep the memory containing module's allocation tags
alive until all tags are unused. However percpu counters referenced by
the tags are freed by free_module(). This will lead to UAF if the memory
allocated by a module is accessed after module was unloaded.
To fix this we allocate percpu counters for module allocation tags
dynamically and we keep it alive for tags which are still in use after
module unloading. This also removes the requirement of a larger
PERCPU_MODULE_RESERVE when memory allocation profiling is enabled because
percpu memory for counters does not need to be reserved anymore.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
platform/x86: dell-wmi-sysman: Avoid buffer overflow in current_password_store()
If the 'buf' array received from the user contains an empty string, the
'length' variable will be zero. Accessing the 'buf' array element with
index 'length - 1' will result in a buffer overflow.
Add a check for an empty string.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: pcm: Fix race of buffer access at PCM OSS layer
The PCM OSS layer tries to clear the buffer with the silence data at
initialization (or reconfiguration) of a stream with the explicit call
of snd_pcm_format_set_silence() with runtime->dma_area. But this may
lead to a UAF because the accessed runtime->dma_area might be freed
concurrently, as it's performed outside the PCM ops.
For avoiding it, move the code into the PCM core and perform it inside
the buffer access lock, so that it won't be changed during the
operation.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: algif_hash - fix double free in hash_accept
If accept(2) is called on socket type algif_hash with
MSG_MORE flag set and crypto_ahash_import fails,
sk2 is freed. However, it is also freed in af_alg_release,
leading to slab-use-after-free error.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Increase block_sequence array size
[Why]
It's possible to generate more than 50 steps in hwss_build_fast_sequence,
for example with a 6-pipe asic where all pipes are in one MPC chain. This
overflows the block_sequence buffer and corrupts block_sequence_steps,
causing a crash.
[How]
Expand block_sequence to 100 items. A naive upper bound on the possible
number of steps for a 6-pipe asic, ignoring the potential for steps to be
mutually exclusive, is 91 with current code, therefore 100 is sufficient.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi-rockchip: Fix register out of bounds access
Do not write native chip select stuff for GPIO chip selects.
GPIOs can be numbered much higher than native CS.
Also, it makes no sense.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: virtuser: fix potential out-of-bound write
If the caller wrote more characters, count is truncated to the max
available space in "simple_write_to_buffer". Check that the input
size does not exceed the buffer size. Write a zero termination
afterwards.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI: endpoint: pci-epf-test: Fix double free that causes kernel to oops
Fix a kernel oops found while testing the stm32_pcie Endpoint driver
with handling of PERST# deassertion:
During EP initialization, pci_epf_test_alloc_space() allocates all BARs,
which are further freed if epc_set_bar() fails (for instance, due to no
free inbound window).
However, when pci_epc_set_bar() fails, the error path:
pci_epc_set_bar() ->
pci_epf_free_space()
does not clear the previous assignment to epf_test->reg[bar].
Then, if the host reboots, the PERST# deassertion restarts the BAR
allocation sequence with the same allocation failure (no free inbound
window), creating a double free situation since epf_test->reg[bar] was
deallocated and is still non-NULL.
Thus, make sure that pci_epf_alloc_space() and pci_epf_free_space()
invocations are symmetric, and as such, set epf_test->reg[bar] to NULL
when memory is freed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: sma1307: Add NULL check in sma1307_setting_loaded()
All varibale allocated by kzalloc and devm_kzalloc could be NULL.
Multiple pointer checks and their cleanup are added.
