Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 5.6.8 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: xsk: disable txq irq before flushing hw
ice_qp_dis() intends to stop a given queue pair that is a target of xsk
pool attach/detach. One of the steps is to disable interrupts on these
queues. It currently is broken in a way that txq irq is turned off
*after* HW flush which in turn takes no effect.
ice_qp_dis():
-> ice_qvec_dis_irq()
--> disable rxq irq
--> flush hw
-> ice_vsi_stop_tx_ring()
-->disable txq irq
Below splat can be triggered by following steps:
- start xdpsock WITHOUT loading xdp prog
- run xdp_rxq_info with XDP_TX action on this interface
- start traffic
- terminate xdpsock

In fact, irqs were not disabled and napi managed to be scheduled and run
while xsk_pool pointer was still valid, but SW ring of xdp_buff pointers
was already freed.
To fix this, call ice_qvec_dis_irq() after ice_vsi_stop_tx_ring(). Also
while at it, remove redundant ice_clean_rx_ring() call - this is handled
in ice_qp_clean_rings().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bonding: restore bond's IFF_SLAVE flag if a non-eth dev enslave fails
syzbot reported a warning[1] where the bond device itself is a slave and
we try to enslave a non-ethernet device as the first slave which fails
but then in the error path when ether_setup() restores the bond device
it also clears all flags. In my previous fix[2] I restored the
IFF_MASTER flag, but I didn't consider the case that the bond device
itself might also be a slave with IFF_SLAVE set, so we need to restore
that flag as well. Use the bond_ether_setup helper which does the right
thing and restores the bond's flags properly.
Steps to reproduce using a nlmon dev:
$ ip l add nlmon0 type nlmon
$ ip l add bond1 type bond
$ ip l add bond2 type bond
$ ip l set bond1 master bond2
$ ip l set dev nlmon0 master bond1
$ ip -d l sh dev bond1
22: bond1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,MASTER> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master bond2 state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
(now bond1's IFF_SLAVE flag is gone and we'll hit a warning[3] if we
try to delete it)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: Fix cleanup null-ptr deref on encap lock
During module is unloaded while a peer tc flow is still offloaded,
first the peer uplink rep profile is changed to a nic profile, and so
neigh encap lock is destroyed. Next during unload, the VF reps netdevs
are unregistered which causes the original non-peer tc flow to be deleted,
which deletes the peer flow. The peer flow deletion detaches the encap
entry and try to take the already destroyed encap lock, causing the
below trace.
Fix this by clearing peer flows during tc eswitch cleanup
(mlx5e_tc_esw_cleanup()).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: st-nci: Fix use after free bug in ndlc_remove due to race condition
This bug influences both st_nci_i2c_remove and st_nci_spi_remove.
Take st_nci_i2c_remove as an example.
In st_nci_i2c_probe, it called ndlc_probe and bound &ndlc->sm_work
with llt_ndlc_sm_work.
When it calls ndlc_recv or timeout handler, it will finally call
schedule_work to start the work.
When we call st_nci_i2c_remove to remove the driver, there
may be a sequence as follows:
Fix it by finishing the work before cleanup in ndlc_remove

st_nci_i2c_remove |

st_nci_remove |

IP tunnels can apparently update dev->needed_headroom

More changes might be needed for completeness.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: fix NULL sndbuf_desc in smc_cdc_tx_handler()
When performing a stress test on SMC-R by rmmod mlx5_ib driver
during the wrk/nginx test, we found that there is a probability
of triggering a panic while terminating all link groups.
This issue dues to the race between smc_smcr_terminate_all()
and smc_buf_create().
smc_smcr_terminate_all
smc_buf_create
/* init */
conn->sndbuf_desc = NULL;
...
__smc_lgr_terminate
smc_conn_kill
smc_close_abort
smc_cdc_get_slot_and_msg_send
__softirqentry_text_start
smc_wr_tx_process_cqe
smc_cdc_tx_handler
READ(conn->sndbuf_desc->len);
/* panic dues to NULL sndbuf_desc */
conn->sndbuf_desc = xxx;
This patch tries to fix the issue by always to check the sndbuf_desc
before send any cdc msg, to make sure that no null pointer is
seen during cqe processing.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: update s_journal_inum if it changes after journal replay
When mounting a crafted ext4 image, s_journal_inum may change after journal
replay, which is obviously unreasonable because we have successfully loaded
and replayed the journal through the old s_journal_inum. And the new
s_journal_inum bypasses some of the checks in ext4_get_journal(), which
may trigger a null pointer dereference problem. So if s_journal_inum
changes after the journal replay, we ignore the change, and rewrite the
current journal_inum to the superblock.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Do not let histogram values have some modifiers
Histogram values can not be strings, stacktraces, graphs, symbols,
syscalls, or grouped in buckets or log. Give an error if a value is set to
do so.
Note, the histogram code was not prepared to handle these modifiers for
histograms and caused a bug.
Mark Rutland reported:

# echo 'hist:keys=n:vals=hitcount.buckets=8:sort=hitcount' > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/kprobes/copy_to_user/trigger

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tty: serial: fsl_lpuart: fix race on RX DMA shutdown
From time to time DMA completion can come in the middle of DMA shutdown:
<process ctx>: <IRQ>:
lpuart32_shutdown()
lpuart_dma_shutdown()
del_timer_sync()
lpuart_dma_rx_complete()
lpuart_copy_rx_to_tty()
mod_timer()
lpuart_dma_rx_free()
When the timer fires a bit later, sport->dma_rx_desc is NULL:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000004
pc : lpuart_copy_rx_to_tty+0xcc/0x5bc
lr : lpuart_timer_func+0x1c/0x2c
Call trace:

...
To fix this fold del_timer_sync() into lpuart_dma_rx_free() after
dmaengine_terminate_sync() to make sure timer will not be re-started in
lpuart_copy_rx_to_tty() <= lpuart_dma_rx_complete().
