Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 6.1.127 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
printk: Fix signed integer overflow when defining LOG_BUF_LEN_MAX
Shifting 1 << 31 on a 32-bit int causes signed integer overflow, which
leads to undefined behavior. To prevent this, cast 1 to u32 before
performing the shift, ensuring well-defined behavior.
This change explicitly avoids any potential overflow by ensuring that
the shift occurs on an unsigned 32-bit integer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: multitouch: Add NULL check in mt_input_configured
devm_kasprintf() can return a NULL pointer on failure,but this
returned value in mt_input_configured() is not checked.
Add NULL check in mt_input_configured(), to handle kernel NULL
pointer dereference error.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: handle a symlink read error correctly
Patch series "Convert ocfs2 to use folios".
Mark did a conversion of ocfs2 to use folios and sent it to me as a
giant patch for review ;-)
So I've redone it as individual patches, and credited Mark for the patches
where his code is substantially the same. It's not a bad way to do it;
his patch had some bugs and my patches had some bugs. Hopefully all our
bugs were different from each other. And hopefully Mark likes all the
changes I made to his code!
This patch (of 23):
If we can't read the buffer, be sure to unlock the page before returning.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: uvcvideo: Remove dangling pointers
When an async control is written, we copy a pointer to the file handle
that started the operation. That pointer will be used when the device is
done. Which could be anytime in the future.
If the user closes that file descriptor, its structure will be freed,
and there will be one dangling pointer per pending async control, that
the driver will try to use.
Clean all the dangling pointers during release().
To avoid adding a performance penalty in the most common case (no async
operation), a counter has been introduced with some logic to make sure
that it is properly handled.

kvmalloc() and devm_add_action().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI: dwc: ep: Prevent changing BAR size/flags in pci_epc_set_bar()
In commit 4284c88fff0e ("PCI: designware-ep: Allow pci_epc_set_bar() update
inbound map address") set_bar() was modified to support dynamically
changing the backing physical address of a BAR that was already configured.
This means that set_bar() can be called twice, without ever calling
clear_bar() (as calling clear_bar() would clear the BAR's PCI address
assigned by the host).
This can only be done if the new BAR size/flags does not differ from the
existing BAR configuration. Add these missing checks.
If we allow set_bar() to set e.g. a new BAR size that differs from the
existing BAR size, the new address translation range will be smaller than
the BAR size already determined by the host, which would mean that a read
past the new BAR size would pass the iATU untranslated, which could allow
the host to read memory not belonging to the new struct pci_epf_bar.
While at it, add comments which clarifies the support for dynamically
changing the physical address of a BAR. (Which was also missing.)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
soc: qcom: socinfo: Avoid out of bounds read of serial number
On MSM8916 devices, the serial number exposed in sysfs is constant and does
not change across individual devices. It's always:
db410c:/sys/devices/soc0$ cat serial_number
2644893864
The firmware used on MSM8916 exposes SOCINFO_VERSION(0, 8), which does not
have support for the serial_num field in the socinfo struct. There is an
existing check to avoid exposing the serial number in that case, but it's
not correct: When checking the item_size returned by SMEM, we need to make
sure the *end* of the serial_num is within bounds, instead of comparing
with the *start* offset. The serial_number currently exposed on MSM8916
devices is just an out of bounds read of whatever comes after the socinfo
struct in SMEM.
Fix this by changing offsetof() to offsetofend(), so that the size of the
field is also taken into account.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: L2CAP: handle NULL sock pointer in l2cap_sock_alloc
A NULL sock pointer is passed into l2cap_sock_alloc() when it is called
from l2cap_sock_new_connection_cb() and the error handling paths should
also be aware of it.
Seemingly a more elegant solution would be to swap bt_sock_alloc() and
l2cap_chan_create() calls since they are not interdependent to that moment
but then l2cap_chan_create() adds the soon to be deallocated and still
dummy-initialized channel to the global list accessible by many L2CAP
paths. The channel would be removed from the list in short period of time
but be a bit more straight-forward here and just check for NULL instead of
changing the order of function calls.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE static
analysis tool.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
binfmt_flat: Fix integer overflow bug on 32 bit systems
Most of these sizes and counts are capped at 256MB so the math doesn't
result in an integer overflow. The "relocs" count needs to be checked
as well. Otherwise on 32bit systems the calculation of "full_data"
could be wrong.
full_data = data_len + relocs * sizeof(unsigned long);

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm/gem: prevent integer overflow in msm_ioctl_gem_submit()
The "submit->cmd[i].size" and "submit->cmd[i].offset" variables are u32
values that come from the user via the submit_lookup_cmds() function.
This addition could lead to an integer wrapping bug so use size_add()
to prevent that.
