Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In July 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
watch_queue: Fix filter limit check
In watch_queue_set_filter(), there are a couple of places where we check
that the filter type value does not exceed what the type_filter bitmap
can hold. One place calculates the number of bits by:
if (tf[i].type >= sizeof(wfilter->type_filter) * 8)
which is fine, but the second does:
if (tf[i].type >= sizeof(wfilter->type_filter) * BITS_PER_LONG)
which is not. This can lead to a couple of out-of-bounds writes due to
a too-large type:
(1) __set_bit() on wfilter->type_filter
(2) Writing more elements in wfilter->filters[] than we allocated.
Fix this by just using the proper WATCH_TYPE__NR instead, which is the
number of types we actually know about.
The bug may cause an oops looking something like:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: usbtmc: Fix bug in pipe direction for control transfers
The syzbot fuzzer reported a minor bug in the usbtmc driver:

The problem is that usbtmc_ioctl_request() uses usb_rcvctrlpipe() for
all of its transfers, whether they are in or out. It's easy to fix.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: f_fs: Fix use-after-free for epfile
Consider a case where ffs_func_eps_disable is called from
ffs_func_disable as part of composition switch and at the
same time ffs_epfile_release get called from userspace.
ffs_epfile_release will free up the read buffer and call
ffs_data_closed which in turn destroys ffs->epfiles and
mark it as NULL. While this was happening the driver has
already initialized the local epfile in ffs_func_eps_disable
which is now freed and waiting to acquire the spinlock. Once
spinlock is acquired the driver proceeds with the stale value
of epfile and tries to free the already freed read buffer
causing use-after-free.
Following is the illustration of the race:
CPU1 CPU2
ffs_func_eps_disable
epfiles (local copy)
ffs_epfile_release
ffs_data_closed
if (last file closed)
ffs_data_reset
ffs_data_clear
ffs_epfiles_destroy
spin_lock
dereference epfiles
Fix this races by taking epfiles local copy & assigning it under
spinlock and if epfiles(local) is null then update it in ffs->epfiles
then finally destroy it.
Extending the scope further from the race, protecting the ep related
structures, and concurrent accesses.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: myrs: Fix crash in error case
In myrs_detect(), cs->disable_intr is NULL when privdata->hw_init() fails
with non-zero. In this case, myrs_cleanup(cs) will call a NULL ptr and
crash the kernel.

Rafael reports that on a system with LX2160A and Marvell DSA switches,
if a reboot occurs while the DSA master (dpaa2-eth) is up, the following
panic can be seen:

It can be seen from the stack trace that the problem is that the
deregistration of the master causes a dev_close(), which gets notified
as NETDEV_GOING_DOWN to dsa_slave_netdevice_event().
But dsa_switch_shutdown() has already run, and this has unregistered the
DSA slave interfaces, and yet, the NETDEV_GOING_DOWN handler attempts to
call dev_close_many() on those slave interfaces, leading to the problem.
The previous attempt to avoid the NETDEV_GOING_DOWN on the master after
dsa_switch_shutdown() was called seems improper. Unregistering the slave
interfaces is unnecessary and unhelpful. Instead, after the slaves have
stopped being uppers of the DSA master, we can now reset to NULL the
master->dsa_ptr pointer, which will make DSA start ignoring all future
notifier events on the master.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: fix a memleak when uncloning an skb dst and its metadata
When uncloning an skb dst and its associated metadata, a new
dst+metadata is allocated and later replaces the old one in the skb.
This is helpful to have a non-shared dst+metadata attached to a specific
skb.
The issue is the uncloned dst+metadata is initialized with a refcount of
1, which is increased to 2 before attaching it to the skb. When
tun_dst_unclone returns, the dst+metadata is only referenced from a
single place (the skb) while its refcount is 2. Its refcount will never
drop to 0 (when the skb is consumed), leading to a memory leak.
Fix this by removing the call to dst_hold in tun_dst_unclone, as the
dst+metadata refcount is already 1.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
phy: stm32: fix a refcount leak in stm32_usbphyc_pll_enable()
This error path needs to decrement "usbphyc->n_pll_cons.counter" before
returning.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86: nSVM: fix potential NULL derefernce on nested migration
Turns out that due to review feedback and/or rebases
I accidentally moved the call to nested_svm_load_cr3 to be too early,
before the NPT is enabled, which is very wrong to do.
KVM can't even access guest memory at that point as nested NPT
is needed for that, and of course it won't initialize the walk_mmu,
which is main issue the patch was addressing.
Fix this for real.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu: Fix potential use-after-free during probe
Kasan has reported the following use after free on dev->iommu.
when a device probe fails and it is in process of freeing dev->iommu
in dev_iommu_free function, a deferred_probe_work_func runs in parallel
and tries to access dev->iommu->fwspec in of_iommu_configure path thus
causing use after free.
