In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix infinite loop when replaying fast_commit
When doing fast_commit replay an infinite loop may occur due to an
uninitialized extent_status struct. ext4_ext_determine_insert_hole() does
not detect the replay and calls ext4_es_find_extent_range(), which will
return immediately without initializing the 'es' variable.
Because 'es' contains garbage, an integer overflow may happen causing an
infinite loop in this function, easily reproducible using fstest generic/039.
This commit fixes this issue by unconditionally initializing the structure
in function ext4_es_find_extent_range().
Thanks to Zhang Yi, for figuring out the real problem!
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
leds: trigger: Unregister sysfs attributes before calling deactivate()
Triggers which have trigger specific sysfs attributes typically store
related data in trigger-data allocated by the activate() callback and
freed by the deactivate() callback.
Calling device_remove_groups() after calling deactivate() leaves a window
where the sysfs attributes show/store functions could be called after
deactivation and then operate on the just freed trigger-data.
Move the device_remove_groups() call to before deactivate() to close
this race window.
This also makes the deactivation path properly do things in reverse order
of the activation path which calls the activate() callback before calling
device_add_groups().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: mediatek: vcodec: Handle invalid decoder vsi
Handle an invalid decoder vsi in vpu_dec_init to ensure the decoder vsi
is valid for future use.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/gma500: fix null pointer dereference in cdv_intel_lvds_get_modes
In cdv_intel_lvds_get_modes(), the return value of drm_mode_duplicate()
is assigned to mode, which will lead to a NULL pointer dereference on
failure of drm_mode_duplicate(). Add a check to avoid npd.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: venus: fix use after free in vdec_close
There appears to be a possible use after free with vdec_close().
The firmware will add buffer release work to the work queue through
HFI callbacks as a normal part of decoding. Randomly closing the
decoder device from userspace during normal decoding can incur
a read after free for inst.
Fix it by cancelling the work in vdec_close.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
landlock: Don't lose track of restrictions on cred_transfer
When a process' cred struct is replaced, this _almost_ always invokes
the cred_prepare LSM hook; but in one special case (when
KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT updates the parent's credentials), the
cred_transfer LSM hook is used instead. Landlock only implements the
cred_prepare hook, not cred_transfer, so KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT causes
all information on Landlock restrictions to be lost.
This basically means that a process with the ability to use the fork()
and keyctl() syscalls can get rid of all Landlock restrictions on
itself.
Fix it by adding a cred_transfer hook that does the same thing as the
existing cred_prepare hook. (Implemented by having hook_cred_prepare()
call hook_cred_transfer() so that the two functions are less likely to
accidentally diverge in the future.)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mailbox: mtk-cmdq: Move devm_mbox_controller_register() after devm_pm_runtime_enable()
When mtk-cmdq unbinds, a WARN_ON message with condition
pm_runtime_get_sync() < 0 occurs.
According to the call tracei below:
cmdq_mbox_shutdown
mbox_free_channel
mbox_controller_unregister
__devm_mbox_controller_unregister
...
The root cause can be deduced to be calling pm_runtime_get_sync() after
calling pm_runtime_disable() as observed below:
1. CMDQ driver uses devm_mbox_controller_register() in cmdq_probe()
to bind the cmdq device to the mbox_controller, so
devm_mbox_controller_unregister() will automatically unregister
the device bound to the mailbox controller when the device-managed
resource is removed. That means devm_mbox_controller_unregister()
and cmdq_mbox_shoutdown() will be called after cmdq_remove().
2. CMDQ driver also uses devm_pm_runtime_enable() in cmdq_probe() after
devm_mbox_controller_register(), so that devm_pm_runtime_disable()
will be called after cmdq_remove(), but before
devm_mbox_controller_unregister().
To fix this problem, cmdq_probe() needs to move
devm_mbox_controller_register() after devm_pm_runtime_enable() to make
devm_pm_runtime_disable() be called after
devm_mbox_controller_unregister().
