Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In August 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
apparmor: Fix null pointer deref when receiving skb during sock creation
The panic below is observed when receiving ICMP packets with secmark set
while an ICMP raw socket is being created. SK_CTX(sk)->label is updated
in apparmor_socket_post_create(), but the packet is delivered to the
socket before that, causing the null pointer dereference.
Drop the packet if label context is not set.
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 000000000000004c

The BackWPup plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in versions up to, and including, 4.0.1 via the job-specific backup folder. This allows authenticated attackers to store backups in arbitrary folders on the server provided they can be written to by the server. Additionally, default settings will place an index.php and a .htaccess file into the chosen directory (unless already present) when the first backup job is run that are intended to prevent directory listing and file access. This means that an attacker could set the backup directory to the root of another site in a shared environment and thus disable that site.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/v3d: Validate passed in drm syncobj handles in the performance extension
If userspace provides an unknown or invalid handle anywhere in the handle
array the rest of the driver will not handle that well.
Fix it by checking handle was looked up successfully or otherwise fail the
extension by jumping into the existing unwind.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/v3d: Fix potential memory leak in the performance extension
If fetching of userspace memory fails during the main loop, all drm sync
objs looked up until that point will be leaked because of the missing
drm_syncobj_put.
Fix it by exporting and using a common cleanup helper.

Check that the number of perfmons userspace is passing in the copy and
reset extensions is not greater than the internal kernel storage where
the ids will be copied into.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
protect the fetch of ->fd[fd] in do_dup2() from mispredictions
both callers have verified that fd is not greater than ->max_fds;
however, misprediction might end up with
tofree = fdt->fd[fd];
being speculatively executed. That's wrong for the same reasons
why it's wrong in close_fd()/file_close_fd_locked(); the same
solution applies - array_index_nospec(fd, fdt->max_fds) could differ
from fd only in case of speculative execution on mispredicted path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: make cow_file_range_inline() honor locked_page on error
The btrfs buffered write path runs through __extent_writepage() which
has some tricky return value handling for writepage_delalloc().
Specifically, when that returns 1, we exit, but for other return values
we continue and end up calling btrfs_folio_end_all_writers(). If the
folio has been unlocked (note that we check the PageLocked bit at the
start of __extent_writepage()), this results in an assert panic like
this one from syzbot:
BTRFS: error (device loop0 state EAL) in free_log_tree:3267: errno=-5 IO failure
BTRFS warning (device loop0 state EAL): Skipping commit of aborted transaction.
BTRFS: error (device loop0 state EAL) in cleanup_transaction:2018: errno=-5 IO failure

The Bricks theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 1.8.1. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the 'save_settings' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify the theme's settings, including enabling a setting which allows lower-privileged users such as contributors to perform code execution, via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
