Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 2.16.12 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
blk-throttle: Set BIO_THROTTLED when bio has been throttled
1.In current process, all bio will set the BIO_THROTTLED flag
after __blk_throtl_bio().
2.If bio needs to be throttled, it will start the timer and
stop submit bio directly. Bio will submit in
blk_throtl_dispatch_work_fn() when the timer expires.But in
the current process, if bio is throttled. The BIO_THROTTLED
will be set to bio after timer start. If the bio has been
completed, it may cause use-after-free blow.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinctrl: renesas: rzn1: Fix possible null-ptr-deref in sh_pfc_map_resources()
It will cause null-ptr-deref when using 'res', if platform_get_resource()
returns NULL, so move using 'res' after devm_ioremap_resource() that
will check it to avoid null-ptr-deref.
And use devm_platform_get_and_ioremap_resource() to simplify code.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
soc: ti: ti_sci_pm_domains: Check for null return of devm_kcalloc
The allocation funciton devm_kcalloc may fail and return a null pointer,
which would cause a null-pointer dereference later.
It might be better to check it and directly return -ENOMEM just like the
usage of devm_kcalloc in previous code.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: sparcspkr - fix refcount leak in bbc_beep_probe
of_find_node_by_path() calls of_find_node_opts_by_path(),
which returns a node pointer with refcount
incremented, we should use of_node_put() on it when done.
Add missing of_node_put() to avoid refcount leak.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bfq: Avoid merging queues with different parents
It can happen that the parent of a bfqq changes between the moment we
decide two queues are worth to merge (and set bic->stable_merge_bfqq)
and the moment bfq_setup_merge() is called. This can happen e.g. because
the process submitted IO for a different cgroup and thus bfqq got
reparented. It can even happen that the bfqq we are merging with has
parent cgroup that is already offline and going to be destroyed in which
case the merge can lead to use-after-free issues such as:

firmware: dmi-sysfs: Fix memory leak in dmi_sysfs_register_handle
kobject_init_and_add() takes reference even when it fails.
According to the doc of kobject_init_and_add()
If this function returns an error, kobject_put() must be called to
properly clean up the memory associated with the object.
Fix this issue by calling kobject_put().

Reason is first directory entry which 'rec_len' is 34478, then will get illegal
parent entry. Now, we do not check directory entry after read directory block
in 'ext4_get_first_dir_block'.
To solve this issue, check directory entry in 'ext4_get_first_dir_block'.
[ Trigger an ext4_error() instead of just warning if the directory is
missing a '.' or '..' entry. Also make sure we return an error code
if the file system is corrupted. -TYT ]
