Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 6.1.124 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Remove register from DCN35 DMCUB diagnostic collection
[Why]
These registers should not be read from driver and triggering the
security violation when DMCUB work times out and diagnostics are
collected blocks Z8 entry.
[How]
Remove the register read from DCN35.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: hisi-kunpeng: Add verification for the max_frequency provided by the firmware
If the value of max_speed_hz is 0, it may cause a division by zero
error in hisi_calc_effective_speed().
The value of max_speed_hz is provided by firmware.
Firmware is generally considered as a trusted domain. However, as
division by zero errors can cause system failure, for defense measure,
the value of max_speed is validated here. So 0 is regarded as invalid
and an error code is returned.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: pm80xx: Set phy->enable_completion only when we wait for it
pm8001_phy_control() populates the enable_completion pointer with a stack
address, sends a PHY_LINK_RESET / PHY_HARD_RESET, waits 300 ms, and
returns. The problem arises when a phy control response comes late. After
300 ms the pm8001_phy_control() function returns and the passed
enable_completion stack address is no longer valid. Late phy control
response invokes complete() on a dangling enable_completion pointer which
leads to a kernel crash.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Disable DMCUB timeout for DCN35
[Why]
DMCUB can intermittently take longer than expected to process commands.
Old ASIC policy was to continue while logging a diagnostic error - which
works fine for ASIC without IPS, but with IPS this could lead to a race
condition where we attempt to access DCN state while it's inaccessible,
leading to a system hang when the NIU port is not disabled or register
accesses that timeout and the display configuration in an undefined
state.
[How]
We need to investigate why these accesses take longer than expected, but
for now we should disable the timeout on DCN35 to avoid this race
condition. Since the waits happen only at lower interrupt levels the
risk of taking too long at higher IRQ and causing a system watchdog
timeout are minimal.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: stm32/cryp - call finalize with bh disabled
The finalize operation in interrupt mode produce a produces a spinlock
recursion warning. The reason is the fact that BH must be disabled
during this process.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mt76: mt7921: fix NULL pointer access in mt7921_ipv6_addr_change
When disabling wifi mt7921_ipv6_addr_change() is called as a notifier.
At this point mvif->phy is already NULL so we cannot use it here.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usbnet: ipheth: do not stop RX on failing RX callback
RX callbacks can fail for multiple reasons:
* Payload too short
* Payload formatted incorrecly (e.g. bad NCM framing)
* Lack of memory
None of these should cause the driver to seize up.
Make such failures non-critical and continue processing further
incoming URBs.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: Intel: soc-acpi-intel-lnl-match: add missing empty item
There is no links_num in struct snd_soc_acpi_mach {}, and we test
!link->num_adr as a condition to end the loop in hda_sdw_machine_select().
So an empty item in struct snd_soc_acpi_link_adr array is required.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: don't BUG_ON on ENOMEM from btrfs_lookup_extent_info() in walk_down_proc()
We handle errors here properly, ENOMEM isn't fatal, return the error.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: lpfc: Handle mailbox timeouts in lpfc_get_sfp_info
The MBX_TIMEOUT return code is not handled in lpfc_get_sfp_info and the
routine unconditionally frees submitted mailbox commands regardless of
return status. The issue is that for MBX_TIMEOUT cases, when firmware
returns SFP information at a later time, that same mailbox memory region
references previously freed memory in its cmpl routine.
Fix by adding checks for the MBX_TIMEOUT return code. During mailbox
resource cleanup, check the mbox flag to make sure that the wait did not
timeout. If the MBOX_WAKE flag is not set, then do not free the resources
because it will be freed when firmware completes the mailbox at a later
time in its cmpl routine.
Also, increase the timeout from 30 to 60 seconds to accommodate boot
scripts requiring longer timeouts.
