Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In September 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe: prevent UAF around preempt fence
The fence lock is part of the queue, therefore in the current design
anything locking the fence should then also hold a ref to the queue to
prevent the queue from being freed.
However, currently it looks like we signal the fence and then drop the
queue ref, but if something is waiting on the fence, the waiter is
kicked to wake up at some later point, where upon waking up it first
grabs the lock before checking the fence state. But if we have already
dropped the queue ref, then the lock might already be freed as part of
the queue, leading to uaf.
To prevent this, move the fence lock into the fence itself so we don't
run into lifetime issues. Alternative might be to have device level
lock, or only release the queue in the fence release callback, however
that might require pushing to another worker to avoid locking issues.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: aacraid: Fix double-free on probe failure
aac_probe_one() calls hardware-specific init functions through the
aac_driver_ident::init pointer, all of which eventually call down to
aac_init_adapter().
If aac_init_adapter() fails after allocating memory for aac_dev::queues,
it frees the memory but does not clear that member.
After the hardware-specific init function returns an error,
aac_probe_one() goes down an error path that frees the memory pointed to
by aac_dev::queues, resulting.in a double-free.

The WPFactory Helper plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting due to the use of add_query_arg without appropriate escaping on the URL in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.0. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

IBM Concert 1.0 does not set the secure attribute on authorization tokens or session cookies. Attackers may be able to get the cookie values by sending a http:// link to a user or by planting this link in a site the user goes to. The cookie will be sent to the insecure link and the attacker can then obtain the cookie value by snooping the traffic.
