Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 6.1.93 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: rcar: Use raw_spinlock to protect register access
Use raw_spinlock in order to fix spurious messages about invalid context
when spinlock debugging is enabled. The lock is only used to serialize
register access.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/amd_nb: Use rdmsr_safe() in amd_get_mmconfig_range()
Xen doesn't offer MSR_FAM10H_MMIO_CONF_BASE to all guests. This results
in the following warning:
unchecked MSR access error: RDMSR from 0xc0010058 at rIP: 0xffffffff8101d19f (xen_do_read_msr+0x7f/0xa0)

based on quirks for a "PNP0c01" device. Treating MMCFG as disabled is the
right course of action, so no change is needed there.
This was most likely exposed by fixing the Xen MSR accessors to not be
silently-safe.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
slimbus: messaging: Free transaction ID in delayed interrupt scenario
In case of interrupt delay for any reason, slim_do_transfer()
returns timeout error but the transaction ID (TID) is not freed.
This results into invalid memory access inside
qcom_slim_ngd_rx_msgq_cb() due to invalid TID.
Fix the issue by freeing the TID in slim_do_transfer() before
returning timeout error to avoid invalid memory access.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ftrace: Avoid potential division by zero in function_stat_show()
Check whether denominator expression x * (x - 1) * 1000 mod {2^32, 2^64}
produce zero and skip stddev computation in that case.
For now don't care about rec->counter * rec->counter overflow because
rec->time * rec->time overflow will likely happen earlier.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Fix bad hist from corrupting named_triggers list
The following commands causes a crash:
~# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/events/rcu/rcu_callback
~# echo 'hist:name=bad:keys=common_pid:onmax(bogus).save(common_pid)' > trigger
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
~# echo 'hist:name=bad:keys=common_pid' > trigger
Because the following occurs:
event_trigger_write() {
trigger_process_regex() {
event_hist_trigger_parse() {
data = event_trigger_alloc(..);
event_trigger_register(.., data) {
cmd_ops->reg(.., data, ..) [hist_register_trigger()] {
data->ops->init() [event_hist_trigger_init()] {
save_named_trigger(name, data) {
list_add(&data->named_list, &named_triggers);
}
}
}
}
ret = create_actions(); (return -EINVAL)
if (ret)
goto out_unreg;
[..]
ret = hist_trigger_enable(data, ...) {
list_add_tail_rcu(&data->list, &file->triggers); <<<---- SKIPPED!!! (this is important!)
[..]
out_unreg:
event_hist_unregister(.., data) {
cmd_ops->unreg(.., data, ..) [hist_unregister_trigger()] {
list_for_each_entry(iter, &file->triggers, list) {
if (!hist_trigger_match(data, iter, named_data, false)) <- never matches
continue;
[..]
test = iter;
}
if (test && test->ops->free) <<<-- test is NULL
test->ops->free(test) [event_hist_trigger_free()] {
[..]
if (data->name)
del_named_trigger(data) {
list_del(&data->named_list); <<<<-- NEVER gets removed!
}
}
}
}
[..]
kfree(data); <<<-- frees item but it is still on list
The next time a hist with name is registered, it causes an u-a-f bug and
the kernel can crash.
Move the code around such that if event_trigger_register() succeeds, the
next thing called is hist_trigger_enable() which adds it to the list.
A bunch of actions is called if get_named_trigger_data() returns false.
But that doesn't need to be called after event_trigger_register(), so it
can be moved up, allowing event_trigger_register() to be called just
before hist_trigger_enable() keeping them together and allowing the
file->triggers to be properly populated.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
caif_virtio: fix wrong pointer check in cfv_probe()
del_vqs() frees virtqueues, therefore cfv->vq_tx pointer should be checked
for NULL before calling it, not cfv->vdev. Also the current implementation
is redundant because the pointer cfv->vdev is dereferenced before it is
checked for NULL.
Fix this by checking cfv->vq_tx for NULL instead of cfv->vdev before
calling del_vqs().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: iwlwifi: limit printed string from FW file
There's no guarantee here that the file is always with a
NUL-termination, so reading the string may read beyond the
end of the TLV. If that's the last TLV in the file, it can
perhaps even read beyond the end of the file buffer.
Fix that by limiting the print format to the size of the
buffer we have.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: enetc: VFs do not support HWTSTAMP_TX_ONESTEP_SYNC
Actually ENETC VFs do not support HWTSTAMP_TX_ONESTEP_SYNC because only
ENETC PF can access PMa_SINGLE_STEP registers. And there will be a crash
if VFs are used to test one-step timestamp, the crash log as follows.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
thermal: core: call put_device() only after device_register() fails
put_device() shouldn't be called before a prior call to
device_register(). __thermal_cooling_device_register() doesn't follow
that properly and needs fixing. Also
thermal_cooling_device_destroy_sysfs() is getting called unnecessarily
on few error paths.
Fix all this by placing the calls at the right place.
Based on initial work done by Caleb Connolly.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: fix UaF in netns ops registration error path
If net_assign_generic() fails, the current error path in ops_init() tries
to clear the gen pointer slot. Anyway, in such error path, the gen pointer
itself has not been modified yet, and the existing and accessed one is
smaller than the accessed index, causing an out-of-bounds error:
