In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: prevent underflow in nfssvc_decode_writeargs()
Smatch complains:
fs/nfsd/nfsxdr.c:341 nfssvc_decode_writeargs()
warn: no lower bound on 'args->len'
Change the type to unsigned to prevent this issue.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwrng: cavium - fix NULL but dereferenced coccicheck error
Fix following coccicheck warning:
./drivers/char/hw_random/cavium-rng-vf.c:182:17-20: ERROR:
pdev is NULL but dereferenced.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: do not clean up repair bio if submit fails
The submit helper will always run bio_endio() on the bio if it fails to
submit, so cleaning up the bio just leads to a variety of use-after-free
and NULL pointer dereference bugs because we race with the endio
function that is cleaning up the bio. Instead just return BLK_STS_OK as
the repair function has to continue to process the rest of the pages,
and the endio for the repair bio will do the appropriate cleanup for the
page that it was given.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
XArray: Fix xas_create_range() when multi-order entry present
If there is already an entry present that is of order >= XA_CHUNK_SHIFT
when we call xas_create_range(), xas_create_range() will misinterpret
that entry as a node and dereference xa_node->parent, generally leading
to a crash that looks something like this:
general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000001:
0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN
KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000008-0x000000000000000f]
CPU: 0 PID: 32 Comm: khugepaged Not tainted 5.17.0-rc8-syzkaller-00003-g56e337f2cf13 #0
RIP: 0010:xa_parent_locked include/linux/xarray.h:1207 [inline]
RIP: 0010:xas_create_range+0x2d9/0x6e0 lib/xarray.c:725
It's deterministically reproducable once you know what the problem is,
but producing it in a live kernel requires khugepaged to hit a race.
While the problem has been present since xas_create_range() was
introduced, I'm not aware of a way to hit it before the page cache was
converted to use multi-index entries.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: fix null ptr deref on hci_sync_conn_complete_evt
This event is just specified for SCO and eSCO link types.
On the reception of a HCI_Synchronous_Connection_Complete for a BDADDR
of an existing LE connection, LE link type and a status that triggers the
second case of the packet processing a NULL pointer dereference happens,
as conn->link is NULL.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/bridge: Add missing pm_runtime_put_sync
pm_runtime_get_sync() will increase the rumtime PM counter
even when it returns an error. Thus a pairing decrement is needed
to prevent refcount leak. Fix this by replacing this API with
pm_runtime_resume_and_get(), which will not change the runtime
PM counter on error. Besides, a matching decrement is needed
on the error handling path to keep the counter balanced.
