Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In July 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/lima: fix shared irq handling on driver remove
lima uses a shared interrupt, so the interrupt handlers must be prepared
to be called at any time. At driver removal time, the clocks are
disabled early and the interrupts stay registered until the very end of
the remove process due to the devm usage.
This is potentially a bug as the interrupts access device registers
which assumes clocks are enabled. A crash can be triggered by removing
the driver in a kernel with CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ enabled.
This patch frees the interrupts at each lima device finishing callback
so that the handlers are already unregistered by the time we fully
disable clocks.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
leds: an30259a: Use devm_mutex_init() for mutex initialization
In this driver LEDs are registered using devm_led_classdev_register()
so they are automatically unregistered after module's remove() is done.
led_classdev_unregister() calls module's led_set_brightness() to turn off
the LEDs and that callback uses mutex which was destroyed already
in module's remove() so use devm API instead.

leds: mlxreg: Use devm_mutex_init() for mutex initialization
In this driver LEDs are registered using devm_led_classdev_register()

led_classdev_unregister() calls module's led_set_brightness() to turn off

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix inode number range checks
Patch series "nilfs2: fix potential issues related to reserved inodes".
This series fixes one use-after-free issue reported by syzbot, caused by
nilfs2's internal inode being exposed in the namespace on a corrupted
filesystem, and a couple of flaws that cause problems if the starting
number of non-reserved inodes written in the on-disk super block is
intentionally (or corruptly) changed from its default value.
This patch (of 3):
In the current implementation of nilfs2, "nilfs->ns_first_ino", which
gives the first non-reserved inode number, is read from the superblock,
but its lower limit is not checked.
As a result, if a number that overlaps with the inode number range of
reserved inodes such as the root directory or metadata files is set in the
super block parameter, the inode number test macros (NILFS_MDT_INODE and
NILFS_VALID_INODE) will not function properly.
In addition, these test macros use left bit-shift calculations using with
the inode number as the shift count via the BIT macro, but the result of a
shift calculation that exceeds the bit width of an integer is undefined in
the C specification, so if "ns_first_ino" is set to a large value other
than the default value NILFS_USER_INO (=11), the macros may potentially
malfunction depending on the environment.
Fix these issues by checking the lower bound of "nilfs->ns_first_ino" and
by preventing bit shifts equal to or greater than the NILFS_USER_INO
constant in the inode number test macros.
Also, change the type of "ns_first_ino" from signed integer to unsigned
integer to avoid the need for type casting in comparisons such as the
lower bound check introduced this time.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
inet_diag: Initialize pad field in struct inet_diag_req_v2
KMSAN reported uninit-value access in raw_lookup() [1]. Diag for raw
sockets uses the pad field in struct inet_diag_req_v2 for the
underlying protocol. This field corresponds to the sdiag_raw_protocol
field in struct inet_diag_req_raw.
inet_diag_get_exact_compat() converts inet_diag_req to
inet_diag_req_v2, but leaves the pad field uninitialized. So the issue
occurs when raw_lookup() accesses the sdiag_raw_protocol field.
Fix this by initializing the pad field in
inet_diag_get_exact_compat(). Also, do the same fix in
inet_diag_dump_compat() to avoid the similar issue in the future.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: Don't process extts if PTP is disabled
The ice_ptp_extts_event() function can race with ice_ptp_release() and
result in a NULL pointer dereference which leads to a kernel panic.
Panic occurs because the ice_ptp_extts_event() function calls
ptp_clock_event() with a NULL pointer. The ice driver has already
released the PTP clock by the time the interrupt for the next external
timestamp event occurs.
To fix this, modify the ice_ptp_extts_event() function to check the
PTP state and bail early if PTP is not ready.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: rswitch: Avoid use-after-free in rswitch_poll()
The use-after-free is actually in rswitch_tx_free(), which is inlined in
rswitch_poll(). Since `skb` and `gq->skbs[gq->dirty]` are in fact the
same pointer, the skb is first freed using dev_kfree_skb_any(), then the
value in skb->len is used to update the interface statistics.
Let's move around the instructions to use skb->len before the skb is
freed.
This bug is trivial to reproduce using KFENCE. It will trigger a splat
every few packets. A simple ARP request or ICMP echo request is enough.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: unconditionally flush pending work before notifier

Problem is that the notifier does a conditional flush, but its possible
that the table-to-be-removed is still referenced by transactions being
processed by the worker, so we need to flush unconditionally.
We could make the flush_work depend on whether we found a table to delete
in nf-next to avoid the flush for most cases.
AFAICS this problem is only exposed in nf-next, with
commit e169285f8c56 ("netfilter: nf_tables: do not store nft_ctx in transaction objects"),
with this commit applied there is an unconditional fetch of
table->family which is whats triggering the above splat.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ntb_netdev: Move ntb_netdev_rx_handler() to call netif_rx() from __netif_rx()
The following is emitted when using idxd (DSA) dmanegine as the data
mover for ntb_transport that ntb_netdev uses.

The cause is due to the idxd driver interrupt completion handler uses
threaded interrupt and the threaded handler is not hard or soft interrupt
context. However __netif_rx() can only be called from interrupt context.
Change the call to netif_rx() in order to allow completion via normal
context for dmaengine drivers that utilize threaded irq handling.
While the following commit changed from netif_rx() to __netif_rx(),
baebdf48c360 ("net: dev: Makes sure netif_rx() can be invoked in any context."),
the change should've been a noop instead. However, the code precedes this
fix should've been using netif_rx_ni() or netif_rx_any_context().

And it also pinned it down to commit b5357cb268c4 ("btrfs: qgroup: do not
check qgroup inherit if qgroup is disabled").
[CAUSE]
That offending commit skips the whole qgroup inherit check if qgroup is
not enabled.
But that also skips the very basic checks like
num_ref_copies/num_excl_copies and the structure size checks.
Meaning if a qgroup enable/disable race is happening at the background,
and we pass a btrfs_qgroup_inherit structure when the qgroup is
disabled, the check would be completely skipped.
Then at the time of transaction commitment, qgroup is re-enabled and
btrfs_qgroup_inherit() is going to use the incorrect structure and
causing the above KASAN error.
[FIX]
Make btrfs_qgroup_check_inherit() only skip the source qgroup checks.
So that even if invalid btrfs_qgroup_inherit structure is passed in, we
can still reject invalid ones no matter if qgroup is enabled or not.
Furthermore we do already have an extra safety inside
btrfs_qgroup_inherit(), which would just ignore invalid qgroup sources,
so even if we only skip the qgroup source check we're still safe.
