Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In October 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
IB/core: Fix ib_cache_setup_one error flow cleanup
When ib_cache_update return an error, we exit ib_cache_setup_one
instantly with no proper cleanup, even though before this we had
already successfully done gid_table_setup_one, that results in
the kernel WARN below.
Do proper cleanup using gid_table_cleanup_one before returning
the err in order to fix the issue.

IB/mlx5: Fix UMR pd cleanup on error flow of driver init
The cited commit moves the pd allocation from function
mlx5r_umr_resource_cleanup() to a new function mlx5r_umr_cleanup().
So the fix in commit [1] is broken. In error flow, will hit panic [2].
Fix it by checking pd pointer to avoid panic if it is NULL;

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/rtrs-clt: Reset cid to con_num - 1 to stay in bounds
In the function init_conns(), after the create_con() and create_cm() for
loop if something fails. In the cleanup for loop after the destroy tag, we
access out of bound memory because cid is set to clt_path->s.con_num.
This commits resets the cid to clt_path->s.con_num - 1, to stay in bounds
in the cleanup loop later.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/iwcm: Fix WARNING:at_kernel/workqueue.c:#check_flush_dependency
In the commit aee2424246f9 ("RDMA/iwcm: Fix a use-after-free related to
destroying CM IDs"), the function flush_workqueue is invoked to flush the
work queue iwcm_wq.
But at that time, the work queue iwcm_wq was created via the function
alloc_ordered_workqueue without the flag WQ_MEM_RECLAIM.
Because the current process is trying to flush the whole iwcm_wq, if
iwcm_wq doesn't have the flag WQ_MEM_RECLAIM, verify that the current
process is not reclaiming memory or running on a workqueue which doesn't
have the flag WQ_MEM_RECLAIM as that can break forward-progress guarantee
leading to a deadlock.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drivers: media: dvb-frontends/rtl2830: fix an out-of-bounds write error
Ensure index in rtl2830_pid_filter does not exceed 31 to prevent
out-of-bounds access.
dev->filters is a 32-bit value, so set_bit and clear_bit functions should
only operate on indices from 0 to 31. If index is 32, it will attempt to
access a non-existent 33rd bit, leading to out-of-bounds access.
Change the boundary check from index > 32 to index >= 32 to resolve this
issue.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix potential null-ptr-deref in nilfs_btree_insert()
Patch series "nilfs2: fix potential issues with empty b-tree nodes".
This series addresses three potential issues with empty b-tree nodes that
can occur with corrupted filesystem images, including one recently
discovered by syzbot.
This patch (of 3):
If a b-tree is broken on the device, and the b-tree height is greater than
2 (the level of the root node is greater than 1) even if the number of
child nodes of the b-tree root is 0, a NULL pointer dereference occurs in
nilfs_btree_prepare_insert(), which is called from nilfs_btree_insert().
This is because, when the number of child nodes of the b-tree root is 0,
nilfs_btree_do_lookup() does not set the block buffer head in any of
path[x].bp_bh, leaving it as the initial value of NULL, but if the level
of the b-tree root node is greater than 1, nilfs_btree_get_nonroot_node(),
which accesses the buffer memory of path[x].bp_bh, is called.
Fix this issue by adding a check to nilfs_btree_root_broken(), which
performs sanity checks when reading the root node from the device, to
detect this inconsistency.
Thanks to Lizhi Xu for trying to solve the bug and clarifying the cause
early on.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: check stripe size compatibility on remount as well
We disable stripe size in __ext4_fill_super if it is not a multiple of
the cluster ratio however this check is missed when trying to remount.
This can leave us with cases where stripe < cluster_ratio after
remount:set making EXT4_B2C(sbi->s_stripe) become 0 that can cause some
unforeseen bugs like divide by 0.
Fix that by adding the check in remount path as well.

Calling ext4_xattr_ibody_find right after reading the inode with
ext4_get_inode_loc will lead to a check of the validity of the xattrs,
avoiding this problem.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fail verification for sign-extension of packet data/data_end/data_meta
syzbot reported a kernel crash due to
commit 1f1e864b6555 ("bpf: Handle sign-extenstin ctx member accesses").
The reason is due to sign-extension of 32-bit load for
packet data/data_end/data_meta uapi field.
The original code looks like:
r2 = *(s32 *)(r1 + 76) /* load __sk_buff->data */
r3 = *(u32 *)(r1 + 80) /* load __sk_buff->data_end */
r0 = r2
r0 += 8
if r3 > r0 goto +1
...
Note that __sk_buff->data load has 32-bit sign extension.
After verification and convert_ctx_accesses(), the final asm code looks like:
r2 = *(u64 *)(r1 +208)
r2 = (s32)r2
r3 = *(u64 *)(r1 +80)
r0 = r2
r0 += 8
if r3 > r0 goto pc+1
...
Note that 'r2 = (s32)r2' may make the kernel __sk_buff->data address invalid
which may cause runtime failure.
Currently, in C code, typically we have
void *data = (void *)(long)skb->data;
void *data_end = (void *)(long)skb->data_end;
...
and it will generate
r2 = *(u64 *)(r1 +208)
r3 = *(u64 *)(r1 +80)
r0 = r2
r0 += 8
if r3 > r0 goto pc+1
If we allow sign-extension,
void *data = (void *)(long)(int)skb->data;
void *data_end = (void *)(long)skb->data_end;
...
the generated code looks like
r2 = *(u64 *)(r1 +208)
r2 <<= 32
r2 s>>= 32
r3 = *(u64 *)(r1 +80)
r0 = r2
r0 += 8
if r3 > r0 goto pc+1
and this will cause verification failure since "r2 <<= 32" is not allowed
as "r2" is a packet pointer.
To fix this issue for case
r2 = *(s32 *)(r1 + 76) /* load __sk_buff->data */
this patch added additional checking in is_valid_access() callback
function for packet data/data_end/data_meta access. If those accesses
are with sign-extenstion, the verification will fail.
