Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 3.10.10 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath9k: verify the expected usb_endpoints are present
The bug arises when a USB device claims to be an ATH9K but doesn't
have the expected endpoints. (In this case there was an interrupt
endpoint where the driver expected a bulk endpoint.) The kernel
needs to be able to handle such devices without getting an internal error.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: do not BUG_ON() on ENOMEM when dropping extent items for a range
If we get -ENOMEM while dropping file extent items in a given range, at
btrfs_drop_extents(), due to failure to allocate memory when attempting to
increment the reference count for an extent or drop the reference count,
we handle it with a BUG_ON(). This is excessive, instead we can simply
abort the transaction and return the error to the caller. In fact most
callers of btrfs_drop_extents(), directly or indirectly, already abort
the transaction if btrfs_drop_extents() returns any error.
Also, we already have error paths at btrfs_drop_extents() that may return
-ENOMEM and in those cases we abort the transaction, like for example
anything that changes the b+tree may return -ENOMEM due to a failure to
allocate a new extent buffer when COWing an existing extent buffer, such
as a call to btrfs_duplicate_item() for example.
So replace the BUG_ON() calls with proper logic to abort the transaction
and return the error.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
UM: cpuinfo: Fix a warning for CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK
When CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK and CONFIG_DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS is selected,
cpu_max_bits_warn() generates a runtime warning similar as below while
we show /proc/cpuinfo. Fix this by using nr_cpu_ids (the runtime limit)
instead of NR_CPUS to iterate CPUs.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix delayed allocation bug in ext4_clu_mapped for bigalloc + inline
When converting files with inline data to extents, delayed allocations
made on a file system created with both the bigalloc and inline options
can result in invalid extent status cache content, incorrect reserved
cluster counts, kernel memory leaks, and potential kernel panics.
With bigalloc, the code that determines whether a block must be
delayed allocated searches the extent tree to see if that block maps
to a previously allocated cluster. If not, the block is delayed
allocated, and otherwise, it isn't. However, if the inline option is
also used, and if the file containing the block is marked as able to
store data inline, there isn't a valid extent tree associated with
the file. The current code in ext4_clu_mapped() calls
ext4_find_extent() to search the non-existent tree for a previously
allocated cluster anyway, which typically finds nothing, as desired.
However, a side effect of the search can be to cache invalid content
from the non-existent tree (garbage) in the extent status tree,
including bogus entries in the pending reservation tree.
To fix this, avoid searching the extent tree when allocating blocks
for bigalloc + inline files that are being converted from inline to
extent mapped.

If we enable CONFIG_F2FS_CHECK_FS config, it will trigger a kernel panic
instead of warning.
The root cause is: in fuzzed image, SIT table is inconsistent with inode
mapping table, result in triggering such warning during SIT table update.
This patch introduces a new flag DATA_GENERIC_ENHANCE_UPDATE, w/ this
flag, data block recovery flow can check destination blkaddr's validation
in SIT table, and skip f2fs_replace_block() to avoid inconsistent status.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: dvbdev: adopts refcnt to avoid UAF
dvb_unregister_device() is known that prone to use-after-free.
That is, the cleanup from dvb_unregister_device() releases the dvb_device
even if there are pointers stored in file->private_data still refer to it.
This patch adds a reference counter into struct dvb_device and delays its
deallocation until no pointer refers to the object.
