Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 4.1.11 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdkfd: Correct the migration DMA map direction
The SVM DMA device map direction should be set the same as
the DMA unmap setting, otherwise the DMA core will report
the following warning.
Before finialize this solution, there're some discussion on
the DMA mapping type(stream-based or coherent) in this KFD
migration case, followed by https://lore.kernel.org/all/04d4ab32
-45a1-4b88-86ee-fb0f35a0ca40@amd.com/T/.
As there's no dma_sync_single_for_*() in the DMA buffer accessed
that because this migration operation should be sync properly and
automatically. Give that there's might not be a performance problem
in various cache sync policy of DMA sync. Therefore, in order to
simplify the DMA direction setting alignment, let's set the DMA map
direction as BIDIRECTIONAL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: cfg80211: clear link ID from bitmap during link delete after clean up
Currently, during link deletion, the link ID is first removed from the
valid_links bitmap before performing any clean-up operations. However, some
functions require the link ID to remain in the valid_links bitmap. One
such example is cfg80211_cac_event(). The flow is -
nl80211_remove_link()
cfg80211_remove_link()
ieee80211_del_intf_link()
ieee80211_vif_set_links()
ieee80211_vif_update_links()
ieee80211_link_stop()
cfg80211_cac_event()
cfg80211_cac_event() requires link ID to be present but it is cleared
already in cfg80211_remove_link(). Ultimately, WARN_ON() is hit.
Therefore, clear the link ID from the bitmap only after completing the link
clean-up.

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:
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:
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.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm: hugetlb: independent PMD page table shared count
The folio refcount may be increased unexpectly through try_get_folio() by
caller such as split_huge_pages. In huge_pmd_unshare(), we use refcount
to check whether a pmd page table is shared. The check is incorrect if
the refcount is increased by the above caller, and this can cause the page
table leaked:

The issue may be triggered by damon, offline_page, page_idle, etc, which
will increase the refcount of page table.
1. The page table itself will be discarded after reporting the
"nonzero mapcount".
2. The HugeTLB page mapped by the page table miss freeing since we
treat the page table as shared and a shared page table will not be
unmapped.
Fix it by introducing independent PMD page table shared count. As
described by comment, pt_index/pt_mm/pt_frag_refcount are used for s390
gmap, x86 pgds and powerpc, pt_share_count is used for x86/arm64/riscv
pmds, so we can reuse the field as pt_share_count.

This issue occurs because the skb buffer is too small, and it's actual
allocation is aligned. This hides an actual issue, which is that nr_route_frame
does not validate the buffer size before using it.
Fix this issue by checking skb->len before accessing any fields in skb->data.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Syzkaller.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
virtio-net: fix overflow inside virtnet_rq_alloc
When the frag just got a page, then may lead to regression on VM.
Specially if the sysctl net.core.high_order_alloc_disable value is 1,
then the frag always get a page when do refill.
Which could see reliable crashes or scp failure (scp a file 100M in size
to VM).
The issue is that the virtnet_rq_dma takes up 16 bytes at the beginning
of a new frag. When the frag size is larger than PAGE_SIZE,
everything is fine. However, if the frag is only one page and the
total size of the buffer and virtnet_rq_dma is larger than one page, an
overflow may occur.
The commit f9dac92ba908 ("virtio_ring: enable premapped mode whatever
use_dma_api") introduced this problem. And we reverted some commits to
fix this in last linux version. Now we try to enable it and fix this
bug directly.
Here, when the frag size is not enough, we reduce the buffer len to fix
this problem.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/cpum_sf: Handle CPU hotplug remove during sampling
CPU hotplug remove handling triggers the following function
call sequence:
CPUHP_AP_PERF_S390_SF_ONLINE --> s390_pmu_sf_offline_cpu()
...
CPUHP_AP_PERF_ONLINE --> perf_event_exit_cpu()
The s390 CPUMF sampling CPU hotplug handler invokes:
s390_pmu_sf_offline_cpu()
+--> cpusf_pmu_setup()
+--> setup_pmc_cpu()
+--> deallocate_buffers()
This function de-allocates all sampling data buffers (SDBs) allocated
for that CPU at event initialization. It also clears the
PMU_F_RESERVED bit. The CPU is gone and can not be sampled.
With the event still being active on the removed CPU, the CPU event
hotplug support in kernel performance subsystem triggers the
following function calls on the removed CPU:
perf_event_exit_cpu()
+--> perf_event_exit_cpu_context()
+--> __perf_event_exit_context()
+--> __perf_remove_from_context()
+--> event_sched_out()
+--> cpumsf_pmu_del()
+--> cpumsf_pmu_stop()
+--> hw_perf_event_update()
to stop and remove the event. During removal of the event, the
sampling device driver tries to read out the remaining samples from
the sample data buffers (SDBs). But they have already been freed
(and may have been re-assigned). This may lead to a use after free
situation in which case the samples are most likely invalid. In the
best case the memory has not been reassigned and still contains
valid data.
Remedy this situation and check if the CPU is still in reserved
state (bit PMU_F_RESERVED set). In this case the SDBs have not been
released an contain valid data. This is always the case when
the event is removed (and no CPU hotplug off occured).
If the PMU_F_RESERVED bit is not set, the SDB buffers are gone.
