Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In September 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Validate function returns
[WHAT & HOW]
Function return values must be checked before data can be used
in subsequent functions.
This fixes 4 CHECKED_RETURN issues reported by Coverity.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Run DC_LOG_DC after checking link->link_enc
[WHAT]
The DC_LOG_DC should be run after link->link_enc is checked, not before.
This fixes 1 REVERSE_INULL issue reported by Coverity.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
udf: Avoid excessive partition lengths
Avoid mounting filesystems where the partition would overflow the
32-bits used for block number. Also refuse to mount filesystems where
the partition length is so large we cannot safely index bits in a
block bitmap.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Check UnboundedRequestEnabled's value
CalculateSwathAndDETConfiguration_params_st's UnboundedRequestEnabled
is a pointer (i.e. dml_bool_t *UnboundedRequestEnabled), and thus
if (p->UnboundedRequestEnabled) checks its address, not bool value.
This fixes 1 REVERSE_INULL issue reported by Coverity.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/imagination: Free pvr_vm_gpuva after unlink
This caused a measurable memory leak. Although the individual
allocations are small, the leaks occurs in a high-usage codepath
(remapping or unmapping device memory) so they add up quickly.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: protect references to superblock parameters exposed in sysfs
The superblock buffers of nilfs2 can not only be overwritten at runtime
for modifications/repairs, but they are also regularly swapped, replaced
during resizing, and even abandoned when degrading to one side due to
backing device issues. So, accessing them requires mutual exclusion using
the reader/writer semaphore "nilfs->ns_sem".
Some sysfs attribute show methods read this superblock buffer without the
necessary mutual exclusion, which can cause problems with pointer
dereferencing and memory access, so fix it.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix missing cleanup on rollforward recovery error
In an error injection test of a routine for mount-time recovery, KASAN
found a use-after-free bug.
It turned out that if data recovery was performed using partial logs
created by dsync writes, but an error occurred before starting the log
writer to create a recovered checkpoint, the inodes whose data had been
recovered were left in the ns_dirty_files list of the nilfs object and
were not freed.
Fix this issue by cleaning up inodes that have read the recovery data if
the recovery routine fails midway before the log writer starts.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ila: call nf_unregister_net_hooks() sooner
syzbot found an use-after-free Read in ila_nf_input [1]
Issue here is that ila_xlat_exit_net() frees the rhashtable,
then call nf_unregister_net_hooks().
It should be done in the reverse way, with a synchronize_rcu().
This is a good match for a pre_exit() method.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp_bpf: fix return value of tcp_bpf_sendmsg()
When we cork messages in psock->cork, the last message triggers the
flushing will result in sending a sk_msg larger than the current
message size. In this case, in tcp_bpf_send_verdict(), 'copied' becomes
negative at least in the following case:
468 case __SK_DROP:
469 default:
470 sk_msg_free_partial(sk, msg, tosend);
471 sk_msg_apply_bytes(psock, tosend);
472 *copied -= (tosend + delta); // <==== HERE
473 return -EACCES;
Therefore, it could lead to the following BUG with a proper value of
'copied' (thanks to syzbot). We should not use negative 'copied' as a
return value here.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mana: Fix error handling in mana_create_txq/rxq's NAPI cleanup
Currently napi_disable() gets called during rxq and txq cleanup,
even before napi is enabled and hrtimer is initialized. It causes
kernel panic.
