Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 6.1.90 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: fix mbss changed flags corruption on 32 bit systems
On 32-bit systems, the size of an unsigned long is 4 bytes,
while a u64 is 8 bytes. Therefore, when using
or_each_set_bit(bit, &bits, sizeof(changed) * BITS_PER_BYTE),
the code is incorrectly searching for a bit in a 32-bit
variable that is expected to be 64 bits in size,
leading to incorrect bit finding.
Solution: Ensure that the size of the bits variable is correctly
adjusted for each architecture.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ila: serialize calls to nf_register_net_hooks()
syzbot found a race in ila_add_mapping() [1]
commit 031ae72825ce ("ila: call nf_unregister_net_hooks() sooner")
attempted to fix a similar issue.
Looking at the syzbot repro, we have concurrent ILA_CMD_ADD commands.
Add a mutex to make sure at most one thread is calling nf_register_net_hooks().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: restrict SO_REUSEPORT to inet sockets
After blamed commit, crypto sockets could accidentally be destroyed
from RCU call back, as spotted by zyzbot [1].
Trying to acquire a mutex in RCU callback is not allowed.
Restrict SO_REUSEPORT socket option to inet sockets.
v1 of this patch supported TCP, UDP and SCTP sockets,
but fcnal-test.sh test needed RAW and ICMP support.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm: adv7511: Fix use-after-free in adv7533_attach_dsi()
The host_node pointer was assigned and freed in adv7533_parse_dt(), and
later, adv7533_attach_dsi() uses the same. Fix this use-after-free issue
by dropping of_node_put() in adv7533_parse_dt() and calling of_node_put()
in error path of probe() and also in the remove().

The intent of the verifcation done in check_flush_depedency is to ensure
forward progress during memory reclaim, by flagging cases when either a
memory reclaim process, or a memory reclaim work item is flushed from a
context not marked as memory reclaim safe.
This is correct when flushing, but when called from the
cancel(_delayed)_work_sync() paths it is a false positive because work is
either already running, or will not be running at all. Therefore
cancelling it is safe and we can relax the warning criteria by letting the
helper know of the calling context.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinctrl: mcp23s08: Fix sleeping in atomic context due to regmap locking
If a device uses MCP23xxx IO expander to receive IRQs, the following
bug can happen:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context
at kernel/locking/mutex.c:283
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 1, non_block: 0, ...
preempt_count: 1, expected: 0
...
Call Trace:

We observed the problem while experimenting with a touchscreen driver which
used MCP23017 IO expander (I2C).
The regmap in the pinctrl-mcp23s08 driver uses a mutex for protection from
concurrent accesses, which is the default for regmaps without .fast_io,
.disable_locking, etc.
mcp23s08_irq_set_type() calls regmap_update_bits_base(), and the latter
locks the mutex.
However, __setup_irq() locks desc->lock spinlock before calling these
functions. As a result, the system tries to lock the mutex whole holding
the spinlock.
It seems, the internal regmap locks are not needed in this driver at all.
mcp->lock seems to protect the regmap from concurrent accesses already,
except, probably, in mcp_pinconf_get/set.
mcp23s08_irq_set_type() and mcp23s08_irq_mask/unmask() are called under
chip_bus_lock(), which calls mcp23s08_irq_bus_lock(). The latter takes
mcp->lock and enables regmap caching, so that the potentially slow I2C
accesses are deferred until chip_bus_unlock().
The accesses to the regmap from mcp23s08_probe_one() do not need additional
locking.
In all remaining places where the regmap is accessed, except
mcp_pinconf_get/set(), the driver already takes mcp->lock.
This patch adds locking in mcp_pinconf_get/set() and disables internal
locking in the regmap config. Among other things, it fixes the sleeping
in atomic context described above.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/uverbs: Prevent integer overflow issue
In the expression "cmd.wqe_size * cmd.wr_count", both variables are u32
values that come from the user so the multiplication can lead to integer
wrapping. Then we pass the result to uverbs_request_next_ptr() which also
could potentially wrap. The "cmd.sge_count * sizeof(struct ib_uverbs_sge)"
multiplication can also overflow on 32bit systems although it's fine on
64bit systems.
This patch does two things. First, I've re-arranged the condition in
uverbs_request_next_ptr() so that the use controlled variable "len" is on
one side of the comparison by itself without any math. Then I've modified
all the callers to use size_mul() for the multiplications.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: fix slab-use-after-free due to dangling pointer dqi_priv
When mounting ocfs2 and then remounting it as read-only, a
slab-use-after-free occurs after the user uses a syscall to
quota_getnextquota. Specifically, sb_dqinfo(sb, type)->dqi_priv is the
dangling pointer.
During the remounting process, the pointer dqi_priv is freed but is never
set as null leaving it to be accessed. Additionally, the read-only option
for remounting sets the DQUOT_SUSPENDED flag instead of setting the
DQUOT_USAGE_ENABLED flags. Moreover, later in the process of getting the
next quota, the function ocfs2_get_next_id is called and only checks the
quota usage flags and not the quota suspended flags.
To fix this, I set dqi_priv to null when it is freed after remounting with
read-only and put a check for DQUOT_SUSPENDED in ocfs2_get_next_id.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: seq: oss: Fix races at processing SysEx messages
OSS sequencer handles the SysEx messages split in 6 bytes packets, and
ALSA sequencer OSS layer tries to combine those. It stores the data
in the internal buffer and this access is racy as of now, which may
lead to the out-of-bounds access.
As a temporary band-aid fix, introduce a mutex for serializing the
process of the SysEx message packets.
