Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 6.1.124 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI: Avoid putting some root ports into D3 on TUXEDO Sirius Gen1
commit 9d26d3a8f1b0 ("PCI: Put PCIe ports into D3 during suspend") sets the
policy that all PCIe ports are allowed to use D3. When the system is
suspended if the port is not power manageable by the platform and won't be
used for wakeup via a PME this sets up the policy for these ports to go
into D3hot.
This policy generally makes sense from an OSPM perspective but it leads to
problems with wakeup from suspend on the TUXEDO Sirius 16 Gen 1 with a
specific old BIOS. This manifests as a system hang.
On the affected Device + BIOS combination, add a quirk for the root port of
the problematic controller to ensure that these root ports are not put into
D3hot at suspend.
This patch is based on
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20230708214457.1229-2-mario.limonciello@amd.com
but with the added condition both in the documentation and in the code to
apply only to the TUXEDO Sirius 16 Gen 1 with a specific old BIOS and only
the affected root ports.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: don't revert iter for -EIOCBQUEUED
blkdev_read_iter() has a few odd checks, like gating the position and
count adjustment on whether or not the result is bigger-than-or-equal to
zero (where bigger than makes more sense), and not checking the return
value of blkdev_direct_IO() before doing an iov_iter_revert(). The
latter can lead to attempting to revert with a negative value, which
when passed to iov_iter_revert() as an unsigned value will lead to
throwing a WARN_ON() because unroll is bigger than MAX_RW_COUNT.
Be sane and don't revert for -EIOCBQUEUED, like what is done in other
spots.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/vt-d: Avoid use of NULL after WARN_ON_ONCE
There is a WARN_ON_ONCE to catch an unlikely situation when
domain_remove_dev_pasid can't find the `pasid`. In case it nevertheless
happens we must avoid using a NULL pointer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/v3d: Stop active perfmon if it is being destroyed
If the active performance monitor (`v3d->active_perfmon`) is being
destroyed, stop it first. Currently, the active perfmon is not
stopped during destruction, leaving the `v3d->active_perfmon` pointer
stale. This can lead to undefined behavior and instability.
This patch ensures that the active perfmon is stopped before being
destroyed, aligning with the behavior introduced in commit
7d1fd3638ee3 ("drm/v3d: Stop the active perfmon before being destroyed").

When too many rdma resources are allocated, rxe needs more time to
handle these rdma resources. Sometimes with the current timeout, rxe
can not release the rdma resources correctly.
Compared with other rdma drivers, a bigger timeout is used.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
landlock: Handle weird files
A corrupted filesystem (e.g. bcachefs) might return weird files.
Instead of throwing a warning and allowing access to such file, treat
them as regular files.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: uvcvideo: Fix crash during unbind if gpio unit is in use
We used the wrong device for the device managed functions. We used the
usb device, when we should be using the interface device.
If we unbind the driver from the usb interface, the cleanup functions
are never called. In our case, the IRQ is never disabled.
If an IRQ is triggered, it will try to access memory sections that are
already free, causing an OOPS.
We cannot use the function devm_request_threaded_irq here. The devm_*
clean functions may be called after the main structure is released by
uvc_delete.
Luckily this bug has small impact, as it is only affected by devices
with gpio units and the user has to unbind the device, a disconnect will
not trigger this error.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clk: qcom: dispcc-sm6350: Add missing parent_map for a clock
If a clk_rcg2 has a parent, it should also have parent_map defined,
otherwise we'll get a NULL pointer dereference when calling clk_set_rate
like the following:
[ 3.388105] Call trace:
[ 3.390664] qcom_find_src_index+0x3c/0x70 (P)
[ 3.395301] qcom_find_src_index+0x1c/0x70 (L)

[ 3.455886] clk_set_rate+0x38/0x14c
Add the parent_map property for the clock where it's missing and also
un-inline the parent_data as well to keep the matching parent_map and
parent_data together.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: Explicitly verify target vCPU is online in kvm_get_vcpu()
Explicitly verify the target vCPU is fully online _prior_ to clamping the
index in kvm_get_vcpu(). If the index is "bad", the nospec clamping will
generate '0', i.e. KVM will return vCPU0 instead of NULL.
In practice, the bug is unlikely to cause problems, as it will only come
into play if userspace or the guest is buggy or misbehaving, e.g. KVM may
send interrupts to vCPU0 instead of dropping them on the floor.
However, returning vCPU0 when it shouldn't exist per online_vcpus is
problematic now that KVM uses an xarray for the vCPUs array, as KVM needs
to insert into the xarray before publishing the vCPU to userspace (see
commit c5b077549136 ("KVM: Convert the kvm->vcpus array to a xarray")),
i.e. before vCPU creation is guaranteed to succeed.
As a result, incorrectly providing access to vCPU0 will trigger a
use-after-free if vCPU0 is dereferenced and kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu()
bails out of vCPU creation due to an error and frees vCPU0. Commit
afb2acb2e3a3 ("KVM: Fix vcpu_array[0] races") papered over that issue, but
in doing so introduced an unsolvable teardown conundrum. Preventing
accesses to vCPU0 before it's fully online will allow reverting commit
afb2acb2e3a3, without re-introducing the vcpu_array[0] UAF race.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tomoyo: don't emit warning in tomoyo_write_control()
syzbot is reporting too large allocation warning at tomoyo_write_control(),
for one can write a very very long line without new line character. To fix
this warning, I use __GFP_NOWARN rather than checking for KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE,
for practically a valid line should be always shorter than 32KB where the
"too small to fail" memory-allocation rule applies.
One might try to write a valid line that is longer than 32KB, but such
request will likely fail with -ENOMEM. Therefore, I feel that separately
returning -EINVAL when a line is longer than KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE is redundant.
There is no need to distinguish over-32KB and over-KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE.
