Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In October 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: cfg80211: Set correct chandef when starting CAC
When starting CAC in a mode other than AP mode, it return a
"WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 63 at cfg80211_chandef_dfs_usable+0x20/0xaf [cfg80211]"
caused by the chandef.chan being null at the end of CAC.
Solution: Ensure the channel definition is set for the different modes
when starting CAC to avoid getting a NULL 'chan' at the end of CAC.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath9k_htc: Use __skb_set_length() for resetting urb before resubmit
Syzbot points out that skb_trim() has a sanity check on the existing length of
the skb, which can be uninitialised in some error paths. The intent here is
clearly just to reset the length to zero before resubmitting, so switch to
calling __skb_set_length(skb, 0) directly. In addition, __skb_set_length()
already contains a call to skb_reset_tail_pointer(), so remove the redundant
call.
The syzbot report came from ath9k_hif_usb_reg_in_cb(), but there's a similar
usage of skb_trim() in ath9k_hif_usb_rx_cb(), change both while we're at it.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtw89: avoid to add interface to list twice when SER
If SER L2 occurs during the WoWLAN resume flow, the add interface flow
is triggered by ieee80211_reconfig(). However, due to
rtw89_wow_resume() return failure, it will cause the add interface flow
to be executed again, resulting in a double add list and causing a kernel
panic. Therefore, we have added a check to prevent double adding of the
list.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
l2tp: prevent possible tunnel refcount underflow
When a session is created, it sets a backpointer to its tunnel. When
the session refcount drops to 0, l2tp_session_free drops the tunnel
refcount if session->tunnel is non-NULL. However, session->tunnel is
set in l2tp_session_create, before the tunnel refcount is incremented
by l2tp_session_register, which leaves a small window where
session->tunnel is non-NULL when the tunnel refcount hasn't been
bumped.
Moving the assignment to l2tp_session_register is trivial but
l2tp_session_create calls l2tp_session_set_header_len which uses
session->tunnel to get the tunnel's encap. Add an encap arg to
l2tp_session_set_header_len to avoid using session->tunnel.
If l2tpv3 sessions have colliding IDs, it is possible for
l2tp_v3_session_get to race with l2tp_session_register and fetch a
session which doesn't yet have session->tunnel set. Add a check for
this case.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpiolib: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in gpiod_get_label()
In `gpiod_get_label()`, it is possible that `srcu_dereference_check()` may
return a NULL pointer, leading to a scenario where `label->str` is accessed
without verifying if `label` itself is NULL.
This patch adds a proper NULL check for `label` before accessing
`label->str`. The check for `label->str != NULL` is removed because
`label->str` can never be NULL if `label` is not NULL.
This fixes the issue where the label name was being printed as `(efault)`
when dumping the sysfs GPIO file when `label == NULL`.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe: Prevent null pointer access in xe_migrate_copy
xe_migrate_copy designed to copy content of TTM resources. When source
resource is null, it will trigger a NULL pointer dereference in
xe_migrate_copy. To avoid this situation, update lacks source flag to
true for this case, the flag will trigger xe_migrate_clear rather than
xe_migrate_copy.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe/guc_submit: add missing locking in wedged_fini
Any non-wedged queue can have a zero refcount here and can be running
concurrently with an async queue destroy, therefore dereferencing the
queue ptr to check wedge status after the lookup can trigger UAF if
queue is not wedged. Fix this by keeping the submission_state lock held
around the check to postpone the free and make the check safe, before
dropping again around the put() to avoid the deadlock.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: set sk_state back to CLOSED if autobind fails in sctp_listen_start
In sctp_listen_start() invoked by sctp_inet_listen(), it should set the
sk_state back to CLOSED if sctp_autobind() fails due to whatever reason.
Otherwise, next time when calling sctp_inet_listen(), if sctp_sk(sk)->reuse
is already set via setsockopt(SCTP_REUSE_PORT), sctp_sk(sk)->bind_hash will
be dereferenced as sk_state is LISTENING, which causes a crash as bind_hash
is NULL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Add null check for head_pipe in dcn32_acquire_idle_pipe_for_head_pipe_in_layer
This commit addresses a potential null pointer dereference issue in the
`dcn32_acquire_idle_pipe_for_head_pipe_in_layer` function. The issue
could occur when `head_pipe` is null.
The fix adds a check to ensure `head_pipe` is not null before asserting
it. If `head_pipe` is null, the function returns NULL to prevent a
potential null pointer dereference.
