Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In November 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, arm64: Fix address emission with tag-based KASAN enabled
When BPF_TRAMP_F_CALL_ORIG is enabled, the address of a bpf_tramp_image
struct on the stack is passed during the size calculation pass and
an address on the heap is passed during code generation. This may
cause a heap buffer overflow if the heap address is tagged because
emit_a64_mov_i64() will emit longer code than it did during the size
calculation pass. The same problem could occur without tag-based
KASAN if one of the 16-bit words of the stack address happened to
be all-ones during the size calculation pass. Fix the problem by
assuming the worst case (4 instructions) when calculating the size
of the bpf_tramp_image address emission.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs: don't try and remove empty rbtree node
When copying a namespace we won't have added the new copy into the
namespace rbtree until after the copy succeeded. Calling free_mnt_ns()
will try to remove the copy from the rbtree which is invalid. Simply
free the namespace skeleton directly.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: firewire-lib: Avoid division by zero in apply_constraint_to_size()
The step variable is initialized to zero. It is changed in the loop,
but if it's not changed it will remain zero. Add a variable check
before the division.
The observed behavior was introduced by commit 826b5de90c0b
("ALSA: firewire-lib: fix insufficient PCM rule for period/buffer size"),
and it is difficult to show that any of the interval parameters will
satisfy the snd_interval_test() condition with data from the
amdtp_rate_table[] table.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ethernet: mtk_eth_soc: fix memory corruption during fq dma init
The loop responsible for allocating up to MTK_FQ_DMA_LENGTH buffers must
only touch as many descriptors, otherwise it ends up corrupting unrelated
memory. Fix the loop iteration count accordingly.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
remoteproc: k3-r5: Fix error handling when power-up failed
By simply bailing out, the driver was violating its rule and internal
assumptions that either both or no rproc should be initialized. E.g.,
this could cause the first core to be available but not the second one,
leading to crashes on its shutdown later on while trying to dereference
that second instance.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: fix a UBSAN warning in DML2.1
When programming phantom pipe, since cursor_width is explicity set to 0,
this causes calculation logic to trigger overflow for an unsigned int
triggering the kernel's UBSAN check as below:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: sisfb: Fix strbuf array overflow
The values of the variables xres and yres are placed in strbuf.
These variables are obtained from strbuf1.
The strbuf1 array contains digit characters
and a space if the array contains non-digit characters.
Then, when executing sprintf(strbuf, "%ux%ux8", xres, yres);
more than 16 bytes will be written to strbuf.
It is suggested to increase the size of the strbuf array to 24.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
secretmem: disable memfd_secret() if arch cannot set direct map
Return -ENOSYS from memfd_secret() syscall if !can_set_direct_map(). This
is the case for example on some arm64 configurations, where marking 4k
PTEs in the direct map not present can only be done if the direct map is
set up at 4k granularity in the first place (as ARM's break-before-make
semantics do not easily allow breaking apart large/gigantic pages).
More precisely, on arm64 systems with !can_set_direct_map(),
set_direct_map_invalid_noflush() is a no-op, however it returns success
(0) instead of an error. This means that memfd_secret will seemingly
"work" (e.g. syscall succeeds, you can mmap the fd and fault in pages),
but it does not actually achieve its goal of removing its memory from the
direct map.
Note that with this patch, memfd_secret() will start erroring on systems
where can_set_direct_map() returns false (arm64 with
CONFIG_RODATA_FULL_DEFAULT_ENABLED=n, CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=n and
CONFIG_KFENCE=n), but that still seems better than the current silent
failure. Since CONFIG_RODATA_FULL_DEFAULT_ENABLED defaults to 'y', most
arm64 systems actually have a working memfd_secret() and aren't be
affected.
From going through the iterations of the original memfd_secret patch
series, it seems that disabling the syscall in these scenarios was the
intended behavior [1] (preferred over having
set_direct_map_invalid_noflush return an error as that would result in
SIGBUSes at page-fault time), however the check for it got dropped between
v16 [2] and v17 [3], when secretmem moved away from CMA allocations.
