Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: control: Avoid WARN() for symlink errors
Using WARN() for showing the error of symlink creations don't give
more information than telling that something goes wrong, since the
usual code path is a lregister callback from each control element
creation. More badly, the use of WARN() rather confuses fuzzer as if
it were serious issues.
This patch downgrades the warning messages to use the normal dev_err()
instead of WARN(). For making it clearer, add the function name to
the prefix, too.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: defer final 'struct net' free in netns dismantle
Ilya reported a slab-use-after-free in dst_destroy [1]
Issue is in xfrm6_net_init() and xfrm4_net_init() :
They copy xfrm[46]_dst_ops_template into net->xfrm.xfrm[46]_dst_ops.
But net structure might be freed before all the dst callbacks are
called. So when dst_destroy() calls later :
if (dst->ops->destroy)
dst->ops->destroy(dst);
dst->ops points to the old net->xfrm.xfrm[46]_dst_ops, which has been freed.
See a relevant issue fixed in :
ac888d58869b ("net: do not delay dst_entries_add() in dst_release()")
A fix is to queue the 'struct net' to be freed after one
another cleanup_net() round (and existing rcu_barrier())

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: DR, prevent potential error pointer dereference
The dr_domain_add_vport_cap() function generally returns NULL on error
but sometimes we want it to return ERR_PTR(-EBUSY) so the caller can
retry. The problem here is that "ret" can be either -EBUSY or -ENOMEM
and if it's and -ENOMEM then the error pointer is propogated back and
eventually dereferenced in dr_ste_v0_build_src_gvmi_qpn_tag().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tipc: fix NULL deref in cleanup_bearer()
syzbot found [1] that after blamed commit, ub->ubsock->sk
was NULL when attempting the atomic_dec() :
atomic_dec(&tipc_net(sock_net(ub->ubsock->sk))->wq_count);
Fix this by caching the tipc_net pointer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: Fix icmp host relookup triggering ip_rt_bug

The script below reproduces this scenario:
ip xfrm policy add src 0.0.0.0/0 dst 0.0.0.0/0 \
dir out priority 0 ptype main flag localok icmp
ip l a veth1 type veth
ip a a 192.168.141.111/24 dev veth0
ip l s veth0 up
ping 192.168.141.155 -c 1
icmp_route_lookup() create input routes for locally generated packets
while xfrm relookup ICMP traffic.Then it will set input route
(dst->out = ip_rt_bug) to skb for DESTUNREACH.
For ICMP err triggered by locally generated packets, dst->dev of output
route is loopback. Generally, xfrm relookup verification is not required
on loopback interfaces (net.ipv4.conf.lo.disable_xfrm = 1).
Skip icmp relookup for locally generated packets to fix it.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: hsr: avoid potential out-of-bound access in fill_frame_info()
syzbot is able to feed a packet with 14 bytes, pretending
it is a vlan one.
Since fill_frame_info() is relying on skb->mac_len already,
extend the check to cover this case.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: enetc: Do not configure preemptible TCs if SIs do not support
Both ENETC PF and VF drivers share enetc_setup_tc_mqprio() to configure
MQPRIO. And enetc_setup_tc_mqprio() calls enetc_change_preemptible_tcs()
to configure preemptible TCs. However, only PF is able to configure
preemptible TCs. Because only PF has related registers, while VF does not
have these registers. So for VF, its hw->port pointer is NULL. Therefore,
VF will access an invalid pointer when accessing a non-existent register,
which will cause a crash issue. The simplified log is as follows.

In addition, some PFs also do not support configuring preemptible TCs,
such as eno1 and eno3 on LS1028A. It won't crash like it does for VFs,
but we should prevent these PFs from accessing these unimplemented
registers.
