Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 6.6.59 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: DR, prevent potential error pointer dereference
The dr_domain_add_vport_cap() function generally returns NULL on error
but sometimes we want it to return ERR_PTR(-EBUSY) so the caller can
retry. The problem here is that "ret" can be either -EBUSY or -ENOMEM
and if it's and -ENOMEM then the error pointer is propogated back and
eventually dereferenced in dr_ste_v0_build_src_gvmi_qpn_tag().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dccp: Fix memory leak in dccp_feat_change_recv
If dccp_feat_push_confirm() fails after new value for SP feature was accepted
without reconciliation ('entry == NULL' branch), memory allocated for that value
with dccp_feat_clone_sp_val() is never freed.
Here is the kmemleak stack for this:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/ipv6: release expired exception dst cached in socket
Dst objects get leaked in ip6_negative_advice() when this function is
executed for an expired IPv6 route located in the exception table. There
are several conditions that must be fulfilled for the leak to occur:
* an ICMPv6 packet indicating a change of the MTU for the path is received,
resulting in an exception dst being created
* a TCP connection that uses the exception dst for routing packets must
start timing out so that TCP begins retransmissions
* after the exception dst expires, the FIB6 garbage collector must not run
before TCP executes ip6_negative_advice() for the expired exception dst
When TCP executes ip6_negative_advice() for an exception dst that has
expired and if no other socket holds a reference to the exception dst, the
refcount of the exception dst is 2, which corresponds to the increment
made by dst_init() and the increment made by the TCP socket for which the
connection is timing out. The refcount made by the socket is never
released. The refcount of the dst is decremented in sk_dst_reset() but
that decrement is counteracted by a dst_hold() intentionally placed just
before the sk_dst_reset() in ip6_negative_advice(). After
ip6_negative_advice() has finished, there is no other object tied to the
dst. The socket lost its reference stored in sk_dst_cache and the dst is
no longer in the exception table. The exception dst becomes a leaked
object.
As a result of this dst leak, an unbalanced refcount is reported for the
loopback device of a net namespace being destroyed under kernels that do
not contain e5f80fcf869a ("ipv6: give an IPv6 dev to blackhole_netdev"):
unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 2
Fix the dst leak by removing the dst_hold() in ip6_negative_advice(). The
patch that introduced the dst_hold() in ip6_negative_advice() was
92f1655aa2b22 ("net: fix __dst_negative_advice() race"). But 92f1655aa2b22
merely refactored the code with regards to the dst refcount so the issue
was present even before 92f1655aa2b22. The bug was introduced in
54c1a859efd9f ("ipv6: Don't drop cache route entry unless timer actually
expired.") where the expired cached route is deleted and the sk_dst_cache
member of the socket is set to NULL by calling dst_negative_advice() but
the refcount belonging to the socket is left unbalanced.
The IPv4 version - ipv4_negative_advice() - is not affected by this bug.
When the TCP connection times out ipv4_negative_advice() merely resets the
sk_dst_cache of the socket while decrementing the refcount of the
exception dst.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: j1939: j1939_session_new(): fix skb reference counting
Since j1939_session_skb_queue() does an extra skb_get() for each new
skb, do the same for the initial one in j1939_session_new() to avoid
refcount underflow.

icmp_route_lookup() create input routes for locally generated packets
while xfrm relookup ICMP traffic.Then it will set input route
(dst->out = ip_rt_bug) to skb for DESTUNREACH.
For ICMP err triggered by locally generated packets, dst->dev of output
route is loopback. Generally, xfrm relookup verification is not required
on loopback interfaces (net.ipv4.conf.lo.disable_xfrm = 1).
Skip icmp relookup for locally generated packets to fix it.

net: hsr: avoid potential out-of-bound access in fill_frame_info()
syzbot is able to feed a packet with 14 bytes, pretending

Since fill_frame_info() is relying on skb->mac_len already,

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: enetc: Do not configure preemptible TCs if SIs do not support
Both ENETC PF and VF drivers share enetc_setup_tc_mqprio() to configure
MQPRIO. And enetc_setup_tc_mqprio() calls enetc_change_preemptible_tcs()
to configure preemptible TCs. However, only PF is able to configure
preemptible TCs. Because only PF has related registers, while VF does not
have these registers. So for VF, its hw->port pointer is NULL. Therefore,
VF will access an invalid pointer when accessing a non-existent register,
which will cause a crash issue. The simplified log is as follows.

In addition, some PFs also do not support configuring preemptible TCs,
such as eno1 and eno3 on LS1028A. It won't crash like it does for VFs,
but we should prevent these PFs from accessing these unimplemented
registers.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: hi311x: hi3110_can_ist(): fix potential use-after-free
The commit a22bd630cfff ("can: hi311x: do not report txerr and rxerr
during bus-off") removed the reporting of rxerr and txerr even in case
of correct operation (i. e. not bus-off).
The error count information added to the CAN frame after netif_rx() is
a potential use after free, since there is no guarantee that the skb
is in the same state. It might be freed or reused.
Fix the issue by postponing the netif_rx() call in case of txerr and
rxerr reporting.
