- CVEs Published In September 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: btnxpuart: Fix Null pointer dereference in btnxpuart_flush()
This adds a check before freeing the rx->skb in flush and close
functions to handle the kernel crash seen while removing driver after FW
download fails or before FW download completes.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI: Add missing bridge lock to pci_bus_lock()
One of the true positives that the cfg_access_lock lockdep effort
identified is this sequence:

Where pci_reset_bus() users are triggering unlocked secondary bus resets.
Ironically pci_bus_reset(), several calls down from pci_reset_bus(), uses
pci_bus_lock() before issuing the reset which locks everything *but* the
bridge itself.
For the same motivation as adding:
bridge = pci_upstream_bridge(dev);
if (bridge)
pci_dev_lock(bridge);
to pci_reset_function() for the "bus" and "cxl_bus" reset cases, add
pci_dev_lock() for @bus->self to pci_bus_lock().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix race between direct IO write and fsync when using same fd
If we have 2 threads that are using the same file descriptor and one of
them is doing direct IO writes while the other is doing fsync, we have a
race where we can end up either:
1) Attempt a fsync without holding the inode's lock, triggering an
assertion failures when assertions are enabled;
2) Do an invalid memory access from the fsync task because the file private
points to memory allocated on stack by the direct IO task and it may be
used by the fsync task after the stack was destroyed.
The race happens like this:
1) A user space program opens a file descriptor with O_DIRECT;
2) The program spawns 2 threads using libpthread for example;
3) One of the threads uses the file descriptor to do direct IO writes,
while the other calls fsync using the same file descriptor.
4) Call task A the thread doing direct IO writes and task B the thread
doing fsyncs;
5) Task A does a direct IO write, and at btrfs_direct_write() sets the
file's private to an on stack allocated private with the member
'fsync_skip_inode_lock' set to true;
6) Task B enters btrfs_sync_file() and sees that there's a private
structure associated to the file which has 'fsync_skip_inode_lock' set
to true, so it skips locking the inode's VFS lock;
7) Task A completes the direct IO write, and resets the file's private to
NULL since it had no prior private and our private was stack allocated.
Then it unlocks the inode's VFS lock;
8) Task B enters btrfs_get_ordered_extents_for_logging(), then the
assertion that checks the inode's VFS lock is held fails, since task B
never locked it and task A has already unlocked it.
The stack trace produced is the following:
assertion failed: inode_is_locked(&inode->vfs_inode), in fs/btrfs/ordered-data.c:983

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Ensure array index tg_inst won't be -1
[WHY & HOW]
tg_inst will be a negative if timing_generator_count equals 0, which
should be checked before used.
This fixes 2 OVERRUN issues reported by Coverity.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/pm: fix the Out-of-bounds read warning
using index i - 1U may beyond element index
for mc_data[] when i = 0.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Assign linear_pitch_alignment even for VM
[Description]
Assign linear_pitch_alignment so we don't cause a divide by 0
error in VM environments
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix qgroup reserve leaks in cow_file_range
In the buffered write path, the dirty page owns the qgroup reserve until
it creates an ordered_extent.
Therefore, any errors that occur before the ordered_extent is created
must free that reservation, or else the space is leaked. The fstest
generic/475 exercises various IO error paths, and is able to trigger
errors in cow_file_range where we fail to get to allocating the ordered
extent. Note that because we *do* clear delalloc, we are likely to
remove the inode from the delalloc list, so the inodes/pages to not have
invalidate/launder called on them in the commit abort path.
This results in failures at the unmount stage of the test that look like:
BTRFS: error (device dm-8 state EA) in cleanup_transaction:2018: errno=-5 IO failure
BTRFS: error (device dm-8 state EA) in btrfs_replace_file_extents:2416: errno=-5 IO failure

BTRFS error (device dm-8 state EA): qgroup reserved space leaked
Cases 2 and 3 in the out_reserve path both pertain to this type of leak
and must free the reserved qgroup data. Because it is already an error
path, I opted not to handle the possible errors in
btrfs_free_qgroup_data.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Skip wbscl_set_scaler_filter if filter is null
Callers can pass null in filter (i.e. from returned from the function
wbscl_get_filter_coeffs_16p) and a null check is added to ensure that is
not the case.
This fixes 4 NULL_RETURNS issues reported by Coverity.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
driver: iio: add missing checks on iio_info's callback access
Some callbacks from iio_info structure are accessed without any check, so
if a driver doesn't implement them trying to access the corresponding
sysfs entries produce a kernel oops such as:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: altera-msgdma: properly free descriptor in msgdma_free_descriptor
Remove list_del call in msgdma_chan_desc_cleanup, this should be the role
of msgdma_free_descriptor. In consequence replace list_add_tail with
list_move_tail in msgdma_free_descriptor.
This fixes the path:
msgdma_free_chan_resources -> msgdma_free_descriptors ->
msgdma_free_desc_list -> msgdma_free_descriptor
which does not correctly free the descriptors as first nodes were not
removed from the list.
