Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 3.10.54 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix nilfs_empty_dir() misjudgment and long loop on I/O errors
The error handling in nilfs_empty_dir() when a directory folio/page read
fails is incorrect, as in the old ext2 implementation, and if the
folio/page cannot be read or nilfs_check_folio() fails, it will falsely
determine the directory as empty and corrupt the file system.
In addition, since nilfs_empty_dir() does not immediately return on a
failed folio/page read, but continues to loop, this can cause a long loop
with I/O if i_size of the directory's inode is also corrupted, causing the
log writer thread to wait and hang, as reported by syzbot.
Fix these issues by making nilfs_empty_dir() immediately return a false
value (0) if it fails to get a directory folio/page.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: add error handle to avoid out-of-bounds
if the sdma_v4_0_irq_id_to_seq return -EINVAL, the process should
be stop to avoid out-of-bounds read, so directly return -EINVAL.

If p9_check_errors() fails early in p9_client_rpc(), req->rc.tag
will not be properly initialized. However, trace_9p_client_res()
ends up trying to print it out anyway before p9_client_rpc()
finishes.
Fix this issue by assigning default values to p9_fcall fields
such as 'tag' and (just in case KMSAN unearths something new) 'id'
during the tag allocation stage.

occured when /sys/bus/ap/a[pq]mask was updated with a relative mask value
(like +0x10-0x12,+60,-90) with one of the numeric values exceeding INT_MAX.
The fix is simple: use unsigned long values for the internal variables. The
correct checks are already in place in the function but a simple int for
the internal variables was used with the possibility to overflow.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix potential kernel bug due to lack of writeback flag waiting
Destructive writes to a block device on which nilfs2 is mounted can cause
a kernel bug in the folio/page writeback start routine or writeback end

This is because when the log writer starts a writeback for segment summary
blocks or a super root block that use the backing device's page cache, it
does not wait for the ongoing folio/page writeback, resulting in an
inconsistent writeback state.
Fix this issue by waiting for ongoing writebacks when putting
folios/pages on the backing device into writeback state.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing/probes: fix error check in parse_btf_field()
btf_find_struct_member() might return NULL or an error via the
ERR_PTR() macro. However, its caller in parse_btf_field() only checks
for the NULL condition. Fix this by using IS_ERR() and returning the
error up the stack.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dma-buf/sw-sync: don't enable IRQ from sync_print_obj()
Since commit a6aa8fca4d79 ("dma-buf/sw-sync: Reduce irqsave/irqrestore from
known context") by error replaced spin_unlock_irqrestore() with
spin_unlock_irq() for both sync_debugfs_show() and sync_print_obj() despite
sync_print_obj() is called from sync_debugfs_show(), lockdep complains
inconsistent lock state warning.
Use plain spin_{lock,unlock}() for sync_print_obj(), for
sync_debugfs_show() is already using spin_{lock,unlock}_irq().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: max3100: Update uart_driver_registered on driver removal
The removal of the last MAX3100 device triggers the removal of
the driver. However, code doesn't update the respective global
variable and after insmod — rmmod — insmod cycle the kernel
oopses:
max3100 spi-PRP0001:01: max3100_probe: adding port 0
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000408

Update the actual state so next time UART driver will be registered
again.
Hugo also noticed, that the error path in the probe also affected
by having the variable set, and not cleared. Instead of clearing it
move the assignment after the successfull uart_register_driver() call.
