Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In July 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drop_monitor: replace spin_lock by raw_spin_lock
trace_drop_common() is called with preemption disabled, and it acquires
a spin_lock. This is problematic for RT kernels because spin_locks are
sleeping locks in this configuration, which causes the following splat:

trace_drop_common() also disables interrupts, but this is a minor issue
because we could easily replace it with a local_lock.
Replace the spin_lock with raw_spin_lock to avoid sleeping in atomic
context.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: bypass empty buckets in batadv_purge_orig_ref()
Many syzbot reports are pointing to soft lockups in
batadv_purge_orig_ref() [1]
Root cause is unknown, but we can avoid spending too much
time there and perhaps get more interesting reports.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tipc: force a dst refcount before doing decryption
As it says in commit 3bc07321ccc2 ("xfrm: Force a dst refcount before
entering the xfrm type handlers"):
"Crypto requests might return asynchronous. In this case we leave the
rcu protected region, so force a refcount on the skb's destination
entry before we enter the xfrm type input/output handlers."
On TIPC decryption path it has the same problem, and skb_dst_force()
should be called before doing decryption to avoid a possible crash.
Shuang reported this issue when this warning is triggered:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPICA: Revert "ACPICA: avoid Info: mapping multiple BARs. Your kernel is fine."
Undo the modifications made in commit d410ee5109a1 ("ACPICA: avoid
"Info: mapping multiple BARs. Your kernel is fine.""). The initial
purpose of this commit was to stop memory mappings for operation
regions from overlapping page boundaries, as it can trigger warnings
if different page attributes are present.
However, it was found that when this situation arises, mapping
continues until the boundary's end, but there is still an attempt to
read/write the entire length of the map, leading to a NULL pointer
deference. For example, if a four-byte mapping request is made but
only one byte is mapped because it hits the current page boundary's
end, a four-byte read/write attempt is still made, resulting in a NULL
pointer deference.
Instead, map the entire length, as the ACPI specification does not
mandate that it must be within the same page boundary. It is
permissible for it to be mapped across different regions.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: prevent possible NULL dereference in rt6_probe()

Enabling CONFIG_BTRFS_ASSERT revealed the following assertion to
trigger:
assertion failed: !list_empty(&ordered->list), in fs/btrfs/zoned.c:1815
This indicates, that we're missing the checksums list on the
ordered_extent. As btrfs/167 is doing a NOCOW write this is to be
expected.
Further analysis with drgn confirmed the assumption:
>>> inode = prog.crashed_thread().stack_trace()[11]['ordered'].inode
>>> btrfs_inode = drgn.container_of(inode, "struct btrfs_inode", \
"vfs_inode")
>>> print(btrfs_inode.flags)
(u32)1
As zoned emulation mode simulates conventional zones on regular devices,
we cannot use zone-append for writing. But we're only attaching dummy
checksums if we're doing a zone-append write.
So for NOCOW zoned data writes on conventional zones, also attach a
dummy checksum.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mips: bmips: BCM6358: make sure CBR is correctly set
It was discovered that some device have CBR address set to 0 causing
kernel panic when arch_sync_dma_for_cpu_all is called.
This was notice in situation where the system is booted from TP1 and
BMIPS_GET_CBR() returns 0 instead of a valid address and
!!(read_c0_brcm_cmt_local() & (1 << 31)); not failing.
The current check whether RAC flush should be disabled or not are not
enough hence lets check if CBR is a valid address or not.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: hda: cs35l41: Possible null pointer dereference in cs35l41_hda_unbind()
The cs35l41_hda_unbind() function clears the hda_component entry
matching it's index and then dereferences the codec pointer held in the
first element of the hda_component array, this is an issue when the
device index was 0.
Instead use the codec pointer stashed in the cs35l41_hda structure as it
will still be valid.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: lpi2c: Avoid calling clk_get_rate during transfer
Instead of repeatedly calling clk_get_rate for each transfer, lock
the clock rate and cache the value.
A deadlock has been observed while adding tlv320aic32x4 audio codec to
the system. When this clock provider adds its clock, the clk mutex is
locked already, it needs to access i2c, which in return needs the mutex
for clk_get_rate as well.
