Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In July 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: txgbe: free isb resources at the right time
When using MSI/INTx interrupt, the shared interrupts are still being
handled in the device remove routine, before free IRQs. So isb memory
is still read after it is freed. Thus move wx_free_isb_resources()
from txgbe_close() to txgbe_remove(). And fix the improper isb free
action in txgbe_open() error handling path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: txgbe: initialize num_q_vectors for MSI/INTx interrupts
When using MSI/INTx interrupts, wx->num_q_vectors is uninitialized.
Thus there will be kernel panic in wx_alloc_q_vectors() to allocate
queue vectors.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: cfg80211: restrict NL80211_ATTR_TXQ_QUANTUM values
syzbot is able to trigger softlockups, setting NL80211_ATTR_TXQ_QUANTUM
to 2^31.
We had a similar issue in sch_fq, fixed with commit

The parameter passed to kfree was 5a5a5a5a, which corresponds to the target field of
the jffs_inode_info structure. It was found that all variables in the jffs_inode_info
structure were 5a5a5a5a, except for the first member sem. It is suspected that these
variables are not initialized because they were set to 5a5a5a5a during memory testing,
which is meant to detect uninitialized memory.The sem variable is initialized in the
function jffs2_i_init_once, while other members are initialized in
the function jffs2_init_inode_info.
The function jffs2_init_inode_info is called after iget_locked,
but in the iget_locked function, the destroy_inode process is triggered,
which releases the inode and consequently, the target member of the inode
is not initialized.In concurrent high pressure scenarios, iget_locked
may enter the destroy_inode branch as described in the code.
Since the destroy_inode functionality of jffs2 only releases the target,
the fix method is to set target to NULL in jffs2_i_init_once.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: mediatek: vcodec: Only free buffer VA that is not NULL
In the MediaTek vcodec driver, while mtk_vcodec_mem_free() is mostly
called only when the buffer to free exists, there are some instances
that didn't do the check and triggered warnings in practice.
We believe those checks were forgotten unintentionally. Add the checks
back to fix the warnings.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/dasd: Fix invalid dereferencing of indirect CCW data pointer
Fix invalid dereferencing of indirect CCW data pointer in
dasd_eckd_dump_sense() that leads to a kernel panic in error cases.
When using indirect addressing for DASD CCWs (IDAW) the CCW CDA pointer
does not contain the data address itself but a pointer to the IDAL.
This needs to be translated from physical to virtual as well before
using it.
This dereferencing is also used for dasd_page_cache and also fixed
although it is very unlikely that this code path ever gets used.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clk: sunxi-ng: common: Don't call hw_to_ccu_common on hw without common
In order to set the rate range of a hw sunxi_ccu_probe calls
hw_to_ccu_common() assuming all entries in desc->ccu_clks are contained
in a ccu_common struct. This assumption is incorrect and, in
consequence, causes invalid pointer de-references.
Remove the faulty call. Instead, add one more loop that iterates over
the ccu_clks and sets the rate range, if required.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Revert "mm/writeback: fix possible divide-by-zero in wb_dirty_limits(), again"
Patch series "mm: Avoid possible overflows in dirty throttling".
Dirty throttling logic assumes dirty limits in page units fit into
32-bits. This patch series makes sure this is true (see patch 2/2 for
more details).
This patch (of 2):
This reverts commit 9319b647902cbd5cc884ac08a8a6d54ce111fc78.
The commit is broken in several ways. Firstly, the removed (u64) cast
from the multiplication will introduce a multiplication overflow on 32-bit
archs if wb_thresh * bg_thresh >= 1<<32 (which is actually common - the
default settings with 4GB of RAM will trigger this). Secondly, the
div64_u64() is unnecessarily expensive on 32-bit archs. We have
div64_ul() in case we want to be safe & cheap. Thirdly, if dirty
thresholds are larger than 1<<32 pages, then dirty balancing is going to
blow up in many other spectacular ways anyway so trying to fix one
possible overflow is just moot.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix adding block group to a reclaim list and the unused list during reclaim
There is a potential parallel list adding for retrying in
btrfs_reclaim_bgs_work and adding to the unused list. Since the block
group is removed from the reclaim list and it is on a relocation work,
it can be added into the unused list in parallel. When that happens,
adding it to the reclaim list will corrupt the list head and trigger
list corruption like below.
Fix it by taking fs_info->unused_bgs_lock.

[177.843][T2585409] btrfs_delete_unused_bgs+0x3d9/0x14c0 [btrfs]
There is a similar retry_list code in btrfs_delete_unused_bgs(), but it is
safe, AFAICS. Since the block group was in the unused list, the used bytes
should be 0 when it was added to the unused list. Then, it checks
block_group->{used,reserved,pinned} are still 0 under the
block_group->lock. So, they should be still eligible for the unused list,
not the reclaim list.
The reason it is safe there it's because because we're holding
space_info->groups_sem in write mode.
That means no other task can allocate from the block group, so while we
are at deleted_unused_bgs() it's not possible for other tasks to
allocate and deallocate extents from the block group, so it can't be
added to the unused list or the reclaim list by anyone else.
The bug can be reproduced by btrfs/166 after a few rounds. In practice
this can be hit when relocation cannot find more chunk space and ends
with ENOSPC.
