Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 2.1.120 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sunrpc: fix reference count leaks in rpc_sysfs_xprt_state_change
The refcount leak issues take place in an error handling path. When the
3rd argument buf doesn't match with "offline", "online" or "remove", the
function simply returns -EINVAL and forgets to decrease the reference
count of a rpc_xprt object and a rpc_xprt_switch object increased by
rpc_sysfs_xprt_kobj_get_xprt() and
rpc_sysfs_xprt_kobj_get_xprt_switch(), causing reference count leaks of
both unused objects.
Fix this issue by jumping to the error handling path labelled with
out_put when buf matches none of "offline", "online" or "remove".

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xprtrdma: fix pointer derefs in error cases of rpcrdma_ep_create
If there are failures then we must not leave the non-NULL pointers with
the error value, otherwise `rpcrdma_ep_destroy` gets confused and tries
free them, resulting in an Oops.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/sqpoll: work around a potential audit memory leak
kmemleak complains that there's a memory leak related to connect
handling:
unreferenced object 0xffff0001093bdf00 (size 128):

which can can happen if:
1) The command type does something on the prep side that triggers an
audit call.
2) The thread hasn't done any operations before this that triggered
an audit call inside ->issue(), where we have audit_uring_entry()
and audit_uring_exit().
Work around this by issuing a blanket NOP operation before the SQPOLL
does anything.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: hisilicon/sec - Fix memory leak for sec resource release
The AIV is one of the SEC resources. When releasing resources,
it need to release the AIV resources at the same time.
Otherwise, memory leakage occurs.
The aiv resource release is added to the sec resource release
function.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netpoll: Fix race condition in netpoll_owner_active
KCSAN detected a race condition in netpoll:
BUG: KCSAN: data-race in net_rx_action / netpoll_send_skb
write (marked) to 0xffff8881164168b0 of 4 bytes by interrupt on cpu 10:
net_rx_action (./include/linux/netpoll.h:90 net/core/dev.c:6712 net/core/dev.c:6822)
<snip>
read to 0xffff8881164168b0 of 4 bytes by task 1 on cpu 2:
netpoll_send_skb (net/core/netpoll.c:319 net/core/netpoll.c:345 net/core/netpoll.c:393)
netpoll_send_udp (net/core/netpoll.c:?)
<snip>
value changed: 0x0000000a -> 0xffffffff
This happens because netpoll_owner_active() needs to check if the
current CPU is the owner of the lock, touching napi->poll_owner
non atomically. The ->poll_owner field contains the current CPU holding
the lock.
Use an atomic read to check if the poll owner is the current CPU.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix uninitialized ratelimit_state->lock access in __ext4_fill_super()
In the following concurrency we will access the uninitialized rs->lock:
ext4_fill_super
ext4_register_sysfs
// sysfs registered msg_ratelimit_interval_ms
// Other processes modify rs->interval to
// non-zero via msg_ratelimit_interval_ms
ext4_orphan_cleanup
ext4_msg(sb, KERN_INFO, "Errors on filesystem, "
__ext4_msg
___ratelimit(&(EXT4_SB(sb)->s_msg_ratelimit_state)
if (!rs->interval) // do nothing if interval is 0
return 1;
raw_spin_trylock_irqsave(&rs->lock, flags)
raw_spin_trylock(lock)
_raw_spin_trylock
__raw_spin_trylock
spin_acquire(&lock->dep_map, 0, 1, _RET_IP_)
lock_acquire
__lock_acquire
register_lock_class
assign_lock_key
dump_stack();
ratelimit_state_init(&sbi->s_msg_ratelimit_state, 5 * HZ, 10);
raw_spin_lock_init(&rs->lock);
// init rs->lock here
and get the following dump_stack:
=========================================================

you didn't initialize this object before use?

=========================================================
Normally interval is 0 until s_msg_ratelimit_state is initialized, so
___ratelimit() does nothing. But registering sysfs precedes initializing
rs->lock, so it is possible to change rs->interval to a non-zero value
via the msg_ratelimit_interval_ms interface of sysfs while rs->lock is
uninitialized, and then a call to ext4_msg triggers the problem by
accessing an uninitialized rs->lock. Therefore register sysfs after all
initializations are complete to avoid such problems.

Historically, the signed integer overflow sanitizer did not work in the
kernel due to its interaction with `-fwrapv` but this has since been
changed [1] in the newest version of Clang; It was re-enabled in the
kernel with Commit 557f8c582a9ba8ab ("ubsan: Reintroduce signed overflow
sanitizer").
Let's rework this overflow checking logic to not actually perform an
overflow during the check itself, thus avoiding the UBSAN splat.
