Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 4.19.113 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: Fix double increment of client_count in dma_chan_get()
The first time dma_chan_get() is called for a channel the channel
client_count is incorrectly incremented twice for public channels,
first in balance_ref_count(), and again prior to returning. This
results in an incorrect client count which will lead to the
channel resources not being freed when they should be. A simple
test of repeated module load and unload of async_tx on a Dell
Power Edge R7425 also shows this resulting in a kref underflow
warning.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_fs: Prevent race during ffs_ep0_queue_wait
While performing fast composition switch, there is a possibility that the
process of ffs_ep0_write/ffs_ep0_read get into a race condition
due to ep0req being freed up from functionfs_unbind.
Consider the scenario that the ffs_ep0_write calls the ffs_ep0_queue_wait
by taking a lock &ffs->ev.waitq.lock. However, the functionfs_unbind isn't
bounded so it can go ahead and mark the ep0req to NULL, and since there
is no NULL check in ffs_ep0_queue_wait we will end up in use-after-free.
Fix this by making a serialized execution between the two functions using
a mutex_lock(ffs->mutex).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
EDAC/highbank: Fix memory leak in highbank_mc_probe()
When devres_open_group() fails, it returns -ENOMEM without freeing memory
allocated by edac_mc_alloc().
Call edac_mc_free() on the error handling path to avoid a memory leak.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: imx-sdma: Fix a possible memory leak in sdma_transfer_init
If the function sdma_load_context() fails, the sdma_desc will be
freed, but the allocated desc->bd is forgot to be freed.
We already met the sdma_load_context() failure case and the log as
below:
[ 450.699064] imx-sdma 30bd0000.dma-controller: Timeout waiting for CH0 ready
...
In this case, the desc->bd will not be freed without this change.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: designware: use casting of u64 in clock multiplication to avoid overflow
In functions i2c_dw_scl_lcnt() and i2c_dw_scl_hcnt() may have overflow
by depending on the values of the given parameters including the ic_clk.
For example in our use case where ic_clk is larger than one million,
multiplication of ic_clk * 4700 will result in 32 bit overflow.
Add cast of u64 to the calculation to avoid multiplication overflow, and
use the corresponding define for divide.

cpufreq: CPPC: Add u64 casts to avoid overflowing
The fields of the _CPC object are unsigned 32-bits values.
To avoid overflows while using _CPC's values, add 'u64' casts.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gfs2: Always check inode size of inline inodes
Check if the inode size of stuffed (inline) inodes is within the allowed
range when reading inodes from disk (gfs2_dinode_in()). This prevents
us from on-disk corruption.
The two checks in stuffed_readpage() and gfs2_unstuffer_page() that just
truncate inline data to the maximum allowed size don't actually make
sense, and they can be removed now as well.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: brcmfmac: Check the count value of channel spec to prevent out-of-bounds reads
This patch fixes slab-out-of-bounds reads in brcmfmac that occur in
brcmf_construct_chaninfo() and brcmf_enable_bw40_2g() when the count
value of channel specifications provided by the device is greater than
the length of 'list->element[]', decided by the size of the 'list'
allocated with kzalloc(). The patch adds checks that make the functions
free the buffer and return -EINVAL if that is the case. Note that the
negative return is handled by the caller, brcmf_setup_wiphybands() or
brcmf_cfg80211_attach().
Found by a modified version of syzkaller.
