Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 2.6.27.15 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: remove two BUG() from skb_checksum_help()
I have a syzbot report that managed to get a crash in skb_checksum_help()
If syzbot can trigger these BUG(), it makes sense to replace
them with more friendly WARN_ON_ONCE() since skb_checksum_help()
can instead return an error code.
Note that syzbot will still crash there, until real bug is fixed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: pvrusb2: fix array-index-out-of-bounds in pvr2_i2c_core_init
Syzbot reported that -1 is used as array index. The problem was in
missing validation check.
hdw->unit_number is initialized with -1 and then if init table walk fails
this value remains unchanged. Since code blindly uses this member for
array indexing adding sanity check is the easiest fix for that.
hdw->workpoll initialization moved upper to prevent warning in
__flush_work.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: phy: micrel: Allow probing without .driver_data
Currently, if the .probe element is present in the phy_driver structure
and the .driver_data is not, a NULL pointer dereference happens.
Allow passing .probe without .driver_data by inserting NULL checks
for priv->type.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ARM: versatile: Add missing of_node_put in dcscb_init
The device_node pointer is returned by of_find_compatible_node
with refcount incremented. We should use of_node_put() to avoid
the refcount leak.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
blk-throttle: Set BIO_THROTTLED when bio has been throttled
1.In current process, all bio will set the BIO_THROTTLED flag
after __blk_throtl_bio().
2.If bio needs to be throttled, it will start the timer and
stop submit bio directly. Bio will submit in
blk_throtl_dispatch_work_fn() when the timer expires.But in
the current process, if bio is throttled. The BIO_THROTTLED
will be set to bio after timer start. If the bio has been
completed, it may cause use-after-free blow.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinctrl: renesas: rzn1: Fix possible null-ptr-deref in sh_pfc_map_resources()
It will cause null-ptr-deref when using 'res', if platform_get_resource()
returns NULL, so move using 'res' after devm_ioremap_resource() that
will check it to avoid null-ptr-deref.
And use devm_platform_get_and_ioremap_resource() to simplify code.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
soc: ti: ti_sci_pm_domains: Check for null return of devm_kcalloc
The allocation funciton devm_kcalloc may fail and return a null pointer,
which would cause a null-pointer dereference later.
It might be better to check it and directly return -ENOMEM just like the
usage of devm_kcalloc in previous code.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: sparcspkr - fix refcount leak in bbc_beep_probe
of_find_node_by_path() calls of_find_node_opts_by_path(),
which returns a node pointer with refcount
incremented, we should use of_node_put() on it when done.
Add missing of_node_put() to avoid refcount leak.
