Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 4.19.269 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/ioc32: stop speculation on the drm_compat_ioctl path
The drm compat ioctl path takes a user controlled pointer, and then
dereferences it into a table of function pointers, the signature method
of spectre problems. Fix this up by calling array_index_nospec() on the
index to the function pointer list.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: SMP: derive legacy responder STK authentication from MITM state
The legacy responder path in smp_random() currently labels the stored
STK as authenticated whenever pending_sec_level is BT_SECURITY_HIGH.
That reflects what the local service requested, not what the pairing
flow actually achieved.
For Just Works/Confirm legacy pairing, SMP_FLAG_MITM_AUTH stays clear
and the resulting STK should remain unauthenticated even if the local
side requested HIGH security. Use the established MITM state when
storing the responder STK so the key metadata matches the pairing result.
This also keeps the legacy path aligned with the Secure Connections code,
which already treats JUST_WORKS/JUST_CFM as unauthenticated.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: gyro: mpu3050: Move iio_device_register() to correct location
iio_device_register() should be at the end of the probe function to
prevent race conditions.
Place iio_device_register() at the end of the probe function and place
iio_device_unregister() accordingly.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: gyro: mpu3050: Fix irq resource leak
The interrupt handler is setup but only a few lines down if
iio_trigger_register() fails the function returns without properly
releasing the handler.
Add cleanup goto to resolve resource leak.
Detected by Smatch:
drivers/iio/gyro/mpu3050-core.c:1128 mpu3050_trigger_probe() warn:
'irq' from request_threaded_irq() not released on lines: 1124.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: gyro: mpu3050: Fix incorrect free_irq() variable
The handler for the IRQ part of this driver is mpu3050->trig but,
in the teardown free_irq() is called with handler mpu3050.
Use correct IRQ handler when calling free_irq().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: adc: ti-adc161s626: use DMA-safe memory for spi_read()
Add a DMA-safe buffer and use it for spi_read() instead of a stack
memory. All SPI buffers must be DMA-safe.
Since we only need up to 3 bytes, we just use a u8[] instead of __be16
and __be32 and change the conversion functions appropriately.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bridge: br_nd_send: validate ND option lengths
br_nd_send() walks ND options according to option-provided lengths.
A malformed option can make the parser advance beyond the computed
option span or use a too-short source LLADDR option payload.
Validate option lengths against the remaining NS option area before
advancing, and only read source LLADDR when the option is large enough
for an Ethernet address.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: usbtmc: Flush anchored URBs in usbtmc_release
When calling usbtmc_release, pending anchored URBs must be flushed or
killed to prevent use-after-free errors (e.g. in the HCD giveback
path). Call usbtmc_draw_down() to allow anchored URBs to be completed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: ulpi: fix double free in ulpi_register_interface() error path
When device_register() fails, ulpi_register() calls put_device() on
ulpi->dev.
The device release callback ulpi_dev_release() drops the OF node
reference and frees ulpi, but the current error path in
ulpi_register_interface() then calls kfree(ulpi) again, causing a
double free.
Let put_device() handle the cleanup through ulpi_dev_release() and
avoid freeing ulpi again in ulpi_register_interface().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
comedi: me4000: Fix potential overrun of firmware buffer
`me4000_xilinx_download()` loads the firmware that was requested by
`request_firmware()`. It is possible for it to overrun the source
buffer because it blindly trusts the file format. It reads a data
stream length from the first 4 bytes into variable `file_length` and
reads the data stream contents of length `file_length` from offset 16
onwards.
Add a test to ensure that the supplied firmware is long enough to
contain the header and the data stream. On failure, log an error and
return `-EINVAL`.
Note: The firmware loading was totally broken before commit ac584af59945
("staging: comedi: me4000: fix firmware downloading"), but that is the
most sensible target for this fix.
