Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 6.1.52 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: dummy: iio_simply_dummy_buffer: fix information leak in triggered buffer
The 'data' array is allocated via kmalloc() and it is used to push data
to user space from a triggered buffer, but it does not set values for
inactive channels, as it only uses iio_for_each_active_channel()
to assign new values.
Use kzalloc for the memory allocation to avoid pushing uninitialized
information to userspace.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: pressure: zpa2326: fix information leak in triggered buffer
The 'sample' local struct is used to push data to user space from a
triggered buffer, but it has a hole between the temperature and the
timestamp (u32 pressure, u16 temperature, GAP, u64 timestamp).
This hole is never initialized.
Initialize the struct to zero before using it to avoid pushing
uninitialized information to userspace.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_fs: Remove WARN_ON in functionfs_bind
This commit addresses an issue related to below kernel panic where
panic_on_warn is enabled. It is caused by the unnecessary use of WARN_ON
in functionsfs_bind, which easily leads to the following scenarios.
1.adb_write in adbd 2. UDC write via configfs
================= =====================
->usb_ffs_open_thread() ->UDC write
->open_functionfs() ->configfs_write_iter()
->adb_open() ->gadget_dev_desc_UDC_store()
->adb_write() ->usb_gadget_register_driver_owner
->driver_register()
->StartMonitor() ->bus_add_driver()
->adb_read() ->gadget_bind_driver()
<times-out without BIND event> ->configfs_composite_bind()
->usb_add_function()
->open_functionfs() ->ffs_func_bind()
->adb_open() ->functionfs_bind()
<ffs->state !=FFS_ACTIVE>
The adb_open, adb_read, and adb_write operations are invoked from the
daemon, but trying to bind the function is a process that is invoked by
UDC write through configfs, which opens up the possibility of a race
condition between the two paths. In this race scenario, the kernel panic
occurs due to the WARN_ON from functionfs_bind when panic_on_warn is
enabled. This commit fixes the kernel panic by removing the unnecessary
WARN_ON.

misc: microchip: pci1xxxx: Resolve kernel panic during GPIO IRQ handling
Resolve kernel panic caused by improper handling of IRQs while
accessing GPIO values. This is done by replacing generic_handle_irq with
handle_nested_irq.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
topology: Keep the cpumask unchanged when printing cpumap
During fuzz testing, the following warning was discovered:
different return values (15 and 11) from vsnprintf("%*pbl
", ...)
test:keyward is WARNING in kvasprintf
WARNING: CPU: 55 PID: 1168477 at lib/kasprintf.c:30 kvasprintf+0x121/0x130
Call Trace:

entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x78/0xe2
The call trace shows that kvasprintf() reported this warning during the
printing of core_siblings_list. kvasprintf() has several steps:
(1) First, calculate the length of the resulting formatted string.
(2) Allocate a buffer based on the returned length.
(3) Then, perform the actual string formatting.
(4) Check whether the lengths of the formatted strings returned in
steps (1) and (2) are consistent.
If the core_cpumask is modified between steps (1) and (3), the lengths
obtained in these two steps may not match. Indeed our test includes cpu
hotplugging, which should modify core_cpumask while printing.
To fix this issue, cache the cpumask into a temporary variable before
calling cpumap_print_{list, cpumask}_to_buf(), to keep it unchanged
during the printing process.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: adc: at91: call input_free_device() on allocated iio_dev
Current implementation of at91_ts_register() calls input_free_deivce()
on st->ts_input, however, the err label can be reached before the
allocated iio_dev is stored to st->ts_input. Thus call
input_free_device() on input instead of st->ts_input.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
platform/x86/amd/pmc: Only disable IRQ1 wakeup where i8042 actually enabled it
Wakeup for IRQ1 should be disabled only in cases where i8042 had
actually enabled it, otherwise "wake_depth" for this IRQ will try to
drop below zero and there will be an unpleasant WARN() logged:
kernel: atkbd serio0: Disabling IRQ1 wakeup source to avoid platform firmware bug
kernel: ------------[ cut here ]------------
kernel: Unbalanced IRQ 1 wake disable
kernel: WARNING: CPU: 10 PID: 6431 at kernel/irq/manage.c:920 irq_set_irq_wake+0x147/0x1a0
The PMC driver uses DEFINE_SIMPLE_DEV_PM_OPS() to define its dev_pm_ops
which sets amd_pmc_suspend_handler() to the .suspend, .freeze, and
.poweroff handlers. i8042_pm_suspend(), however, is only set as
the .suspend handler.
Fix the issue by call PMC suspend handler only from the same set of
dev_pm_ops handlers as i8042_pm_suspend(), which currently means just
the .suspend handler.
To reproduce this issue try hibernating (S4) the machine after a fresh boot
without putting it into s2idle first.
