Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 5.10.70 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: iscsi: iscsi_tcp: Fix null-ptr-deref while calling getpeername()
Fix a NULL pointer crash that occurs when we are freeing the socket at the
same time we access it via sysfs.
The problem is that:
1. iscsi_sw_tcp_conn_get_param() and iscsi_sw_tcp_host_get_param() take
the frwd_lock and do sock_hold() then drop the frwd_lock. sock_hold()
does a get on the "struct sock".
2. iscsi_sw_tcp_release_conn() does sockfd_put() which does the last put
on the "struct socket" and that does __sock_release() which sets the
sock->ops to NULL.
3. iscsi_sw_tcp_conn_get_param() and iscsi_sw_tcp_host_get_param() then
call kernel_getpeername() which accesses the NULL sock->ops.
Above we do a get on the "struct sock", but we needed a get on the "struct
socket". Originally, we just held the frwd_lock the entire time but in
commit bcf3a2953d36 ("scsi: iscsi: iscsi_tcp: Avoid holding spinlock while
calling getpeername()") we switched to refcount based because the network
layer changed and started taking a mutex in that path, so we could no
longer hold the frwd_lock.
Instead of trying to maintain multiple refcounts, this just has us use a
mutex for accessing the socket in the interface code paths.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
MIPS: vpe-mt: fix possible memory leak while module exiting
Afer commit 1fa5ae857bb1 ("driver core: get rid of struct device's
bus_id string array"), the name of device is allocated dynamically,
it need be freed when module exiting, call put_device() to give up
reference, so that it can be freed in kobject_cleanup() when the
refcount hit to 0. The vpe_device is static, so remove kfree() from
vpe_device_release().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/52xx: Fix a resource leak in an error handling path
The error handling path of mpc52xx_lpbfifo_probe() has a request_irq()
that is not balanced by a corresponding free_irq().
Add the missing call, as already done in the remove function.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: sched: cake: fix null pointer access issue when cake_init() fails
When the default qdisc is cake, if the qdisc of dev_queue fails to be
inited during mqprio_init(), cake_reset() is invoked to clear
resources. In this case, the tins is NULL, and it will cause gpf issue.
The process is as follows:
qdisc_create_dflt()
cake_init()
q->tins = kvcalloc(...) --->failed, q->tins is NULL
...
qdisc_put()
...
cake_reset()
...
cake_dequeue_one()
b = &q->tins[...] --->q->tins is NULL
The following is the Call Trace information:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpiolib: cdev: fix NULL-pointer dereferences
There are several places where we can crash the kernel by requesting
lines, unbinding the GPIO device, then calling any of the system calls
relevant to the GPIO character device's annonymous file descriptors:
ioctl(), read(), poll().
While I observed it with the GPIO simulator, it will also happen for any
of the GPIO devices that can be hot-unplugged - for instance any HID GPIO
expander (e.g. CP2112).
This affects both v1 and v2 uAPI.
This fixes it partially by checking if gdev->chip is not NULL but it
doesn't entirely remedy the situation as we still have a race condition
in which another thread can remove the device after the check.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/nouveau: fix a use-after-free in nouveau_gem_prime_import_sg_table()
nouveau_bo_init() is backed by ttm_bo_init() and ferries its return code
back to the caller. On failures, ttm will call nouveau_bo_del_ttm() and
free the memory.Thus, when nouveau_bo_init() returns an error, the gem
object has already been released. Then the call to nouveau_bo_ref() will
use the freed "nvbo->bo" and lead to a use-after-free bug.
We should delete the call to nouveau_bo_ref() to avoid the use-after-free.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix resolving backrefs for inline extent followed by prealloc
If a file consists of an inline extent followed by a regular or prealloc
extent, then a legitimate attempt to resolve a logical address in the
non-inline region will result in add_all_parents reading the invalid
offset field of the inline extent. If the inline extent item is placed
in the leaf eb s.t. it is the first item, attempting to access the
offset field will not only be meaningless, it will go past the end of
the eb and cause this panic:
