Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In October 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, lsm: Add check for BPF LSM return value
A bpf prog returning a positive number attached to file_alloc_security
hook makes kernel panic.
This happens because file system can not filter out the positive number
returned by the LSM prog using IS_ERR, and misinterprets this positive
number as a file pointer.
Given that hook file_alloc_security never returned positive number
before the introduction of BPF LSM, and other BPF LSM hooks may
encounter similar issues, this patch adds LSM return value check
in verifier, to ensure no unexpected value is returned.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Check link_res->hpo_dp_link_enc before using it
[WHAT & HOW]
Functions dp_enable_link_phy and dp_disable_link_phy can pass link_res
without initializing hpo_dp_link_enc and it is necessary to check for
null before dereferencing.
This fixes 2 FORWARD_NULL issues reported by Coverity.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: check discard support for conventional zones
As the helper function f2fs_bdev_support_discard() shows, f2fs checks if
the target block devices support discard by calling
bdev_max_discard_sectors() and bdev_is_zoned(). This check works well
for most cases, but it does not work for conventional zones on zoned
block devices. F2fs assumes that zoned block devices support discard,
and calls __submit_discard_cmd(). When __submit_discard_cmd() is called
for sequential write required zones, it works fine since
__submit_discard_cmd() issues zone reset commands instead of discard
commands. However, when __submit_discard_cmd() is called for
conventional zones, __blkdev_issue_discard() is called even when the
devices do not support discard.
The inappropriate __blkdev_issue_discard() call was not a problem before
the commit 30f1e7241422 ("block: move discard checks into the ioctl
handler") because __blkdev_issue_discard() checked if the target devices
support discard or not. If not, it returned EOPNOTSUPP. After the
commit, __blkdev_issue_discard() no longer checks it. It always returns
zero and sets NULL to the given bio pointer. This NULL pointer triggers
f2fs_bug_on() in __submit_discard_cmd(). The BUG is recreated with the
commands below at the umount step, where /dev/nullb0 is a zoned null_blk
with 5GB total size, 128MB zone size and 10 conventional zones.
$ mkfs.f2fs -f -m /dev/nullb0
$ mount /dev/nullb0 /mnt
$ for ((i=0;i<5;i++)); do dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test bs=65536 count=1600 conv=fsync; done
$ umount /mnt
To fix the BUG, avoid the inappropriate __blkdev_issue_discard() call.
When discard is requested for conventional zones, check if the device
supports discard or not. If not, return EOPNOTSUPP.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mt76: mt7996: fix NULL pointer dereference in mt7996_mcu_sta_bfer_he
Fix the NULL pointer dereference in mt7996_mcu_sta_bfer_he
routine adding an sta interface to the mt7996 driver.
Found by code review.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: sd: Fix off-by-one error in sd_read_block_characteristics()
Ff the device returns page 0xb1 with length 8 (happens with qemu v2.x, for
example), sd_read_block_characteristics() may attempt an out-of-bounds
memory access when accessing the zoned field at offset 8.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Skip Recompute DSC Params if no Stream on Link
[why]
Encounter NULL pointer dereference uner mst + dsc setup.

dsc recompute should be skipped if no mode change detected on the new

current state or not.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp: check skb is non-NULL in tcp_rto_delta_us()
We have some machines running stock Ubuntu 20.04.6 which is their 5.4.0-174-generic
kernel that are running ceph and recently hit a null ptr dereference in
tcp_rearm_rto(). Initially hitting it from the TLP path, but then later we also
saw it getting hit from the RACK case as well. Here are examples of the oops
messages we saw in each of those cases:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ep93xx: clock: Fix off by one in ep93xx_div_recalc_rate()
The psc->div[] array has psc->num_div elements. These values come from
when we call clk_hw_register_div(). It's adc_divisors and
ARRAY_SIZE(adc_divisors)) and so on. So this condition needs to be >=
instead of > to prevent an out of bounds read.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vdpa/mlx5: Fix invalid mr resource destroy
Certain error paths from mlx5_vdpa_dev_add() can end up releasing mr
resources which never got initialized in the first place.
This patch adds the missing check in mlx5_vdpa_destroy_mr_resources()
to block releasing non-initialized mr resources.
