Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In October 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: MGMT: Fix possible crash on mgmt_index_removed
If mgmt_index_removed is called while there are commands queued on
cmd_sync it could lead to crashes like the bellow trace:
0x0000053D: __list_del_entry_valid_or_report+0x98/0xdc
0x0000053D: mgmt_pending_remove+0x18/0x58 [bluetooth]
0x0000053E: mgmt_remove_adv_monitor_complete+0x80/0x108 [bluetooth]
0x0000053E: hci_cmd_sync_work+0xbc/0x164 [bluetooth]
So while handling mgmt_index_removed this attempts to dequeue
commands passed as user_data to cmd_sync.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: prevent nf_skb_duplicated corruption
syzbot found that nf_dup_ipv4() or nf_dup_ipv6() could write
per-cpu variable nf_skb_duplicated in an unsafe way [1].
Disabling preemption as hinted by the splat is not enough,
we have to disable soft interrupts as well.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: Fix crash caused by calling __xfrm_state_delete() twice
The km.state is not checked in driver's delayed work. When
xfrm_state_check_expire() is called, the state can be reset to
XFRM_STATE_EXPIRED, even if it is XFRM_STATE_DEAD already. This
happens when xfrm state is deleted, but not freed yet. As
__xfrm_state_delete() is called again in xfrm timer, the following
crash occurs.
To fix this issue, skip xfrm_state_check_expire() if km.state is not
XFRM_STATE_VALID.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
static_call: Replace pointless WARN_ON() in static_call_module_notify()
static_call_module_notify() triggers a WARN_ON(), when memory allocation
fails in __static_call_add_module().
That's not really justified, because the failure case must be correctly
handled by the well known call chain and the error code is passed
through to the initiating userspace application.
A memory allocation fail is not a fatal problem, but the WARN_ON() takes
the machine out when panic_on_warn is set.
Replace it with a pr_warn().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPI: battery: Fix possible crash when unregistering a battery hook
When a battery hook returns an error when adding a new battery, then
the battery hook is automatically unregistered.
However the battery hook provider cannot know that, so it will later
call battery_hook_unregister() on the already unregistered battery
hook, resulting in a crash.
Fix this by using the list head to mark already unregistered battery
hooks as already being unregistered so that they can be ignored by
battery_hook_unregister().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gfs2: fix double destroy_workqueue error
When gfs2_fill_super() fails, destroy_workqueue() is called within
gfs2_gl_hash_clear(), and the subsequent code path calls
destroy_workqueue() on the same work queue again.
This issue can be fixed by setting the work queue pointer to NULL after
the first destroy_workqueue() call and checking for a NULL pointer
before attempting to destroy the work queue again.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: fix null-ptr-deref when journal load failed.
During the mounting process, if journal_reset() fails because of too short
journal, then lead to jbd2_journal_load() fails with NULL j_sb_buffer.
Subsequently, ocfs2_journal_shutdown() calls
jbd2_journal_flush()->jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail()->
__jbd2_update_log_tail()->jbd2_journal_update_sb_log_tail()
->lock_buffer(journal->j_sb_buffer), resulting in a null-pointer
dereference error.
To resolve this issue, we should check the JBD2_LOADED flag to ensure the
journal was properly loaded. Additionally, use journal instead of
osb->journal directly to simplify the code.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath12k: fix array out-of-bound access in SoC stats
Currently, the ath12k_soc_dp_stats::hal_reo_error array is defined with a
maximum size of DP_REO_DST_RING_MAX. However, the ath12k_dp_rx_process()
function access ath12k_soc_dp_stats::hal_reo_error using the REO
destination SRNG ring ID, which is incorrect. SRNG ring ID differ from
normal ring ID, and this usage leads to out-of-bounds array access. To
fix this issue, modify ath12k_dp_rx_process() to use the normal ring ID
directly instead of the SRNG ring ID to avoid out-of-bounds array access.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: don't readahead the relocation inode on RST
On relocation we're doing readahead on the relocation inode, but if the
filesystem is backed by a RAID stripe tree we can get ENOENT (e.g. due to
preallocated extents not being mapped in the RST) from the lookup.
But readahead doesn't handle the error and submits invalid reads to the
device, causing an assertion in the scatter-gather list code:
BTRFS info (device nvme1n1): balance: start -d -m -s
BTRFS info (device nvme1n1): relocating block group 6480920576 flags data|raid0

blk_iocost: fix more out of bound shifts
Recently running UBSAN caught few out of bound shifts in the
ioc_forgive_debts() function:
UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in block/blk-iocost.c:2142:38
shift exponent 80 is too large for 64-bit type 'u64' (aka 'unsigned long
long')
...

Actual impact of this issue was not identified but I propose to fix the
undefined behaviour.
The proposed fix to prevent those out of bound shifts consist of
precalculating exponent before using it the shift operations by taking
min value from the actual exponent and maximum possible number of bits.
