Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In August 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix null pointer dereference in resolve_prog_type() for BPF_PROG_TYPE_EXT
When loading a EXT program without specifying `attr->attach_prog_fd`,
the `prog->aux->dst_prog` will be null. At this time, calling
resolve_prog_type() anywhere will result in a null pointer dereference.
Example stack trace:

One way to fix it is by forcing `attach_prog_fd` non-empty when
bpf_prog_load(). But this will lead to `libbpf_probe_bpf_prog_type`
API broken which use verifier log to probe prog type and will log
nothing if we reject invalid EXT prog before bpf_check().
Another way is by adding null check in resolve_prog_type().
The issue was introduced by commit 4a9c7bbe2ed4 ("bpf: Resolve to
prog->aux->dst_prog->type only for BPF_PROG_TYPE_EXT") which wanted
to correct type resolution for BPF_PROG_TYPE_TRACING programs. Before
that, the type resolution of BPF_PROG_TYPE_EXT prog actually follows
the logic below:
prog->aux->dst_prog ? prog->aux->dst_prog->type : prog->type;
It implies that when EXT program is not yet attached to `dst_prog`,
the prog type should be EXT itself. This code worked fine in the past.
So just keep using it.
Fix this by returning `prog->type` for BPF_PROG_TYPE_EXT if `dst_prog`
is not present in resolve_prog_type().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: fix overflow check in adjust_jmp_off()
adjust_jmp_off() incorrectly used the insn->imm field for all overflow check,
which is incorrect as that should only be done or the BPF_JMP32 | BPF_JA case,
not the general jump instruction case. Fix it by using insn->off for overflow
check in the general case.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bna: adjust 'name' buf size of bna_tcb and bna_ccb structures
To have enough space to write all possible sprintf() args. Currently
'name' size is 16, but the first '%s' specifier may already need at
least 16 characters, since 'bnad->netdev->name' is used there.
For '%d' specifiers, assume that they require:
* 1 char for 'tx_id + tx_info->tcb[i]->id' sum, BNAD_MAX_TXQ_PER_TX is 8
* 2 chars for 'rx_id + rx_info->rx_ctrl[i].ccb->id', BNAD_MAX_RXP_PER_RX
is 16
And replace sprintf with snprintf.
Detected using the static analysis tool - Svace.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, arm64: Fix trampoline for BPF_TRAMP_F_CALL_ORIG
When BPF_TRAMP_F_CALL_ORIG is set, the trampoline calls
__bpf_tramp_enter() and __bpf_tramp_exit() functions, passing them
the struct bpf_tramp_image *im pointer as an argument in R0.
The trampoline generation code uses emit_addr_mov_i64() to emit
instructions for moving the bpf_tramp_image address into R0, but
emit_addr_mov_i64() assumes the address to be in the vmalloc() space
and uses only 48 bits. Because bpf_tramp_image is allocated using
kzalloc(), its address can use more than 48-bits, in this case the
trampoline will pass an invalid address to __bpf_tramp_enter/exit()
causing a kernel crash.
Fix this by using emit_a64_mov_i64() in place of emit_addr_mov_i64()
as it can work with addresses that are greater than 48-bits.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: virt_wifi: avoid reporting connection success with wrong SSID
When user issues a connection with a different SSID than the one
virt_wifi has advertised, the __cfg80211_connect_result() will
trigger the warning: WARN_ON(bss_not_found).
The issue is because the connection code in virt_wifi does not
check the SSID from user space (it only checks the BSSID), and
virt_wifi will call cfg80211_connect_result() with WLAN_STATUS_SUCCESS
even if the SSID is different from the one virt_wifi has advertised.
Eventually cfg80211 won't be able to find the cfg80211_bss and generate
the warning.
Fixed it by checking the SSID (from user space) in the connection code.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtw89: Fix array index mistake in rtw89_sta_info_get_iter()
In rtw89_sta_info_get_iter() 'status->he_gi' is compared to array size.
But then 'rate->he_gi' is used as array index instead of 'status->he_gi'.
This can lead to go beyond array boundaries in case of 'rate->he_gi' is
not equal to 'status->he_gi' and is bigger than array size. Looks like
"copy-paste" mistake.
Fix this mistake by replacing 'rate->he_gi' with 'status->he_gi'.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
riscv, bpf: Fix out-of-bounds issue when preparing trampoline image
We get the size of the trampoline image during the dry run phase and
allocate memory based on that size. The allocated image will then be
populated with instructions during the real patch phase. But after
commit 26ef208c209a ("bpf: Use arch_bpf_trampoline_size"), the `im`
argument is inconsistent in the dry run and real patch phase. This may
cause emit_imm in RV64 to generate a different number of instructions
when generating the 'im' address, potentially causing out-of-bounds
issues. Let's emit the maximum number of instructions for the "im"
address during dry run to fix this problem.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
udf: Fix bogus checksum computation in udf_rename()
Syzbot reports uninitialized memory access in udf_rename() when updating
checksum of '..' directory entry of a moved directory. This is indeed
true as we pass on-stack diriter.fi to the udf_update_tag() and because
that has only struct fileIdentDesc included in it and not the impUse or
name fields, the checksumming function is going to checksum random stack
contents beyond the end of the structure. This is actually harmless
because the following udf_fiiter_write_fi() will recompute the checksum
from on-disk buffers where everything is properly included. So all that
is needed is just removing the bogus calculation.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
lib: objagg: Fix general protection fault
The library supports aggregation of objects into other objects only if
the parent object does not have a parent itself. That is, nesting is not
supported.
Aggregation happens in two cases: Without and with hints, where hints
are a pre-computed recommendation on how to aggregate the provided
objects.
Nesting is not possible in the first case due to a check that prevents
it, but in the second case there is no check because the assumption is
that nesting cannot happen when creating objects based on hints. The
violation of this assumption leads to various warnings and eventually to
a general protection fault [1].
Before fixing the root cause, error out when nesting happens and warn.
