Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In August 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: Correctly set DATA_FIN timeout when number of retransmits is large
Syzkaller with UBSAN uncovered a scenario where a large number of
DATA_FIN retransmits caused a shift-out-of-bounds in the DATA_FIN
timeout calculation:

This change limits the maximum timeout by limiting the size of the
shift, which keeps all intermediate values in-bounds.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: arcnet: com20020: Fix null-ptr-deref in com20020pci_probe()
During driver initialization, the pointer of card info, i.e. the
variable 'ci' is required. However, the definition of
'com20020pci_id_table' reveals that this field is empty for some
devices, which will cause null pointer dereference when initializing
these devices.
The following log reveals it:
[ 3.973806] KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000028-0x000000000000002f]

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: fix connection leak
There's a potential leak issue under following execution sequence :
smc_release smc_connect_work
if (sk->sk_state == SMC_INIT)
send_clc_confirim
tcp_abort();
...
sk.sk_state = SMC_ACTIVE
smc_close_active
switch(sk->sk_state) {
...
case SMC_ACTIVE:
smc_close_final()
// then wait peer closed
Unfortunately, tcp_abort() may discard CLC CONFIRM messages that are
still in the tcp send buffer, in which case our connection token cannot
be delivered to the server side, which means that we cannot get a
passive close message at all. Therefore, it is impossible for the to be
disconnected at all.
This patch tries a very simple way to avoid this issue, once the state
has changed to SMC_ACTIVE after tcp_abort(), we can actively abort the
smc connection, considering that the state is SMC_INIT before
tcp_abort(), abandoning the complete disconnection process should not
cause too much problem.
In fact, this problem may exist as long as the CLC CONFIRM message is
not received by the server. Whether a timer should be added after
smc_close_final() needs to be discussed in the future. But even so, this
patch provides a faster release for connection in above case, it should
also be valuable.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ipv6: ensure we call ipv6_mc_down() at most once
There are two reasons for addrconf_notify() to be called with NETDEV_DOWN:
either the network device is actually going down, or IPv6 was disabled
on the interface.
If either of them stays down while the other is toggled, we repeatedly
call the code for NETDEV_DOWN, including ipv6_mc_down(), while never
calling the corresponding ipv6_mc_up() in between. This will cause a
new entry in idev->mc_tomb to be allocated for each multicast group
the interface is subscribed to, which in turn leaks one struct ifmcaddr6
per nontrivial multicast group the interface is subscribed to.
The following reproducer will leak at least $n objects:
ip addr add ff2e::4242/32 dev eth0 autojoin
sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.eth0.disable_ipv6=1
for i in $(seq 1 $n); do
ip link set up eth0; ip link set down eth0
done
Joining groups with IPV6_ADD_MEMBERSHIP (unprivileged) or setting the
sysctl net.ipv6.conf.eth0.forwarding to 1 (=> subscribing to ff02::2)
can also be used to create a nontrivial idev->mc_list, which will the
leak objects with the right up-down-sequence.
Based on both sources for NETDEV_DOWN events the interface IPv6 state
should be considered:
- not ready if the network interface is not ready OR IPv6 is disabled
for it
- ready if the network interface is ready AND IPv6 is enabled for it
The functions ipv6_mc_up() and ipv6_down() should only be run when this
state changes.
Implement this by remembering when the IPv6 state is ready, and only
run ipv6_mc_down() if it actually changed from ready to not ready.
The other direction (not ready -> ready) already works correctly, as:
- the interface notification triggered codepath for NETDEV_UP /
NETDEV_CHANGE returns early if ipv6 is disabled, and
- the disable_ipv6=0 triggered codepath skips fully initializing the
interface as long as addrconf_link_ready(dev) returns false
- calling ipv6_mc_up() repeatedly does not leak anything

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_queue: fix possible use-after-free
Eric Dumazet says:
The sock_hold() side seems suspect, because there is no guarantee
that sk_refcnt is not already 0.
On failure, we cannot queue the packet and need to indicate an
error. The packet will be dropped by the caller.

blktrace: fix use after free for struct blk_trace

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xen/netfront: destroy queues before real_num_tx_queues is zeroed
xennet_destroy_queues() relies on info->netdev->real_num_tx_queues to
delete queues. Since d7dac083414eb5bb99a6d2ed53dc2c1b405224e5
("net-sysfs: update the queue counts in the unregistration path"),
unregister_netdev() indirectly sets real_num_tx_queues to 0. Those two
facts together means, that xennet_destroy_queues() called from
xennet_remove() cannot do its job, because it's called after
unregister_netdev(). This results in kfree-ing queues that are still
linked in napi, which ultimately crashes:

Fix this by calling xennet_destroy_queues() from xennet_uninit(),
when real_num_tx_queues is still available. This ensures that queues are
destroyed when real_num_tx_queues is set to 0, regardless of how
unregister_netdev() was called.
