Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In 2024
An issue in smarts-srl.com Smart Agent v.1.1.0 allows a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information via command injection through a vulnerable unsanitized parameter defined in the /youtubeInfo.php component.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
blk-cgroup: Fix UAF in blkcg_unpin_online()
blkcg_unpin_online() walks up the blkcg hierarchy putting the online pin. To
walk up, it uses blkcg_parent(blkcg) but it was calling that after
blkcg_destroy_blkgs(blkcg) which could free the blkcg, leading to the
following UAF:

Note that the UAF is not easy to trigger as the free path is indirected
behind a couple RCU grace periods and a work item execution. I could only
trigger it with artifical msleep() injected in blkcg_unpin_online().
Fix it by reading the parent pointer before destroying the blkcg's blkg's.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
riscv: mm: Do not call pmd dtor on vmemmap page table teardown
The vmemmap's, which is used for RV64 with SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, page
tables are populated using pmd (page middle directory) hugetables.
However, the pmd allocation is not using the generic mechanism used by
the VMA code (e.g. pmd_alloc()), or the RISC-V specific
create_pgd_mapping()/alloc_pmd_late(). Instead, the vmemmap page table
code allocates a page, and calls vmemmap_set_pmd(). This results in
that the pmd ctor is *not* called, nor would it make sense to do so.
Now, when tearing down a vmemmap page table pmd, the cleanup code
would unconditionally, and incorrectly call the pmd dtor, which
results in a crash (best case).
This issue was found when running the HMM selftests:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
virtio_net: correct netdev_tx_reset_queue() invocation point
When virtnet_close is followed by virtnet_open, some TX completions can
possibly remain unconsumed, until they are finally processed during the
first NAPI poll after the netdev_tx_reset_queue(), resulting in a crash
[1]. Commit b96ed2c97c79 ("virtio_net: move netdev_tx_reset_queue() call
before RX napi enable") was not sufficient to eliminate all BQL crash
cases for virtio-net.
This issue can be reproduced with the latest net-next master by running:
`while :; do ip l set DEV down; ip l set DEV up; done` under heavy network
TX load from inside the machine.
netdev_tx_reset_queue() can actually be dropped from virtnet_open path;
the device is not stopped in any case. For BQL core part, it's just like
traffic nearly ceases to exist for some period. For stall detector added
to BQL, even if virtnet_close could somehow lead to some TX completions
delayed for long, followed by virtnet_open, we can just take it as stall
as mentioned in commit 6025b9135f7a ("net: dqs: add NIC stall detector
based on BQL"). Note also that users can still reset stall_max via sysfs.
So, drop netdev_tx_reset_queue() from virtnet_enable_queue_pair(). This
eliminates the BQL crashes. As a result, netdev_tx_reset_queue() is now
explicitly required in freeze/restore path. This patch adds it to
immediately after free_unused_bufs(), following the rule of thumb:
netdev_tx_reset_queue() should follow any SKB freeing not followed by
netdev_tx_completed_queue(). This seems the most consistent and
streamlined approach, and now netdev_tx_reset_queue() runs whenever
free_unused_bufs() is done.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix UAF via mismatching bpf_prog/attachment RCU flavors
Uprobes always use bpf_prog_run_array_uprobe() under tasks-trace-RCU
protection. But it is possible to attach a non-sleepable BPF program to a
uprobe, and non-sleepable BPF programs are freed via normal RCU (see
__bpf_prog_put_noref()). This leads to UAF of the bpf_prog because a normal
RCU grace period does not imply a tasks-trace-RCU grace period.
Fix it by explicitly waiting for a tasks-trace-RCU grace period after
removing the attachment of a bpf_prog to a perf_event.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
acpi: nfit: vmalloc-out-of-bounds Read in acpi_nfit_ctl
Fix an issue detected by syzbot with KASAN:
BUG: KASAN: vmalloc-out-of-bounds in cmd_to_func drivers/acpi/nfit/
core.c:416 [inline]
BUG: KASAN: vmalloc-out-of-bounds in acpi_nfit_ctl+0x20e8/0x24a0
drivers/acpi/nfit/core.c:459
The issue occurs in cmd_to_func when the call_pkg->nd_reserved2
array is accessed without verifying that call_pkg points to a buffer
that is appropriately sized as a struct nd_cmd_pkg. This can lead
to out-of-bounds access and undefined behavior if the buffer does not
have sufficient space.
To address this, a check was added in acpi_nfit_ctl() to ensure that
buf is not NULL and that buf_len is less than sizeof(*call_pkg)
before accessing it. This ensures safe access to the members of
call_pkg, including the nd_reserved2 array.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: nl80211: fix NL80211_ATTR_MLO_LINK_ID off-by-one
Since the netlink attribute range validation provides inclusive
checking, the *max* of attribute NL80211_ATTR_MLO_LINK_ID should be
IEEE80211_MLD_MAX_NUM_LINKS - 1 otherwise causing an off-by-one.
One crash stack for demonstration:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, sockmap: Fix race between element replace and close()
Element replace (with a socket different from the one stored) may race
with socket's close() link popping & unlinking. __sock_map_delete()
unconditionally unrefs the (wrong) element:
// set map[0] = s0
map_update_elem(map, 0, s0)
// drop fd of s0
close(s0)
sock_map_close()
lock_sock(sk) (s0!)
sock_map_remove_links(sk)
link = sk_psock_link_pop()
sock_map_unlink(sk, link)
sock_map_delete_from_link
// replace map[0] with s1
map_update_elem(map, 0, s1)
sock_map_update_elem
(s1!) lock_sock(sk)
sock_map_update_common
psock = sk_psock(sk)
spin_lock(&stab->lock)
osk = stab->sks[idx]
sock_map_add_link(..., &stab->sks[idx])
sock_map_unref(osk, &stab->sks[idx])
psock = sk_psock(osk)
sk_psock_put(sk, psock)
if (refcount_dec_and_test(&psock))
sk_psock_drop(sk, psock)
spin_unlock(&stab->lock)
unlock_sock(sk)
__sock_map_delete
spin_lock(&stab->lock)
sk = *psk // s1 replaced s0; sk == s1
if (!sk_test || sk_test == sk) // sk_test (s0) != sk (s1); no branch
sk = xchg(psk, NULL)
if (sk)
sock_map_unref(sk, psk) // unref s1; sks[idx] will dangle
psock = sk_psock(sk)
sk_psock_put(sk, psock)
if (refcount_dec_and_test())
sk_psock_drop(sk, psock)
spin_unlock(&stab->lock)
release_sock(sk)
Then close(map) enqueues bpf_map_free_deferred, which finally calls
sock_map_free(). This results in some refcount_t warnings along with
a KASAN splat [1].
Fix __sock_map_delete(), do not allow sock_map_unref() on elements that
may have been replaced.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf,perf: Fix invalid prog_array access in perf_event_detach_bpf_prog
Syzbot reported [1] crash that happens for following tracing scenario:
- create tracepoint perf event with attr.inherit=1, attach it to the
process and set bpf program to it
- attached process forks -> chid creates inherited event
the new child event shares the parent's bpf program and tp_event
(hence prog_array) which is global for tracepoint
- exit both process and its child -> release both events
- first perf_event_detach_bpf_prog call will release tp_event->prog_array
and second perf_event_detach_bpf_prog will crash, because
tp_event->prog_array is NULL
The fix makes sure the perf_event_detach_bpf_prog checks prog_array
is valid before it tries to remove the bpf program from it.
