Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 6.6.49 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: ti: Add NULL check in udma_probe()
devm_kasprintf() returns NULL when memory allocation fails. Currently,
udma_probe() does not check for this case, which results in a NULL
pointer dereference.
Add NULL check after devm_kasprintf() to prevent this issue.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm: limit swapping tables for devices with zone write plugs
dm_revalidate_zones() only allowed new or previously unzoned devices to
call blk_revalidate_disk_zones(). If the device was already zoned,
disk->nr_zones would always equal md->nr_zones, so dm_revalidate_zones()
returned without doing any work. This would make the zoned settings for
the device not match the new table. If the device had zone write plug
resources, it could run into errors like bdev_zone_is_seq() reading
invalid memory because disk->conv_zones_bitmap was the wrong size.
If the device doesn't have any zone write plug resources, calling
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() will always correctly update device. If
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() fails, it can still overwrite or clear the
current disk->nr_zones value. In this case, DM must restore the previous
value of disk->nr_zones, so that the zoned settings will continue to
match the previous value that it fell back to.
If the device already has zone write plug resources,
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() will not correctly update them, if it is
called for arbitrary zoned device changes. Since there is not much need
for this ability, the easiest solution is to disallow any table reloads
that change the zoned settings, for devices that already have zone plug
resources. Specifically, if a device already has zone plug resources
allocated, it can only switch to another zoned table that also emulates
zone append. Also, it cannot change the device size or the zone size. A
device can switch to an error target.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (asus-ec-sensors) check sensor index in read_string()
Prevent a potential invalid memory access when the requested sensor
is not found.
find_ec_sensor_index() may return a negative value (e.g. -ENOENT),
but its result was used without checking, which could lead to
undefined behavior when passed to get_sensor_info().
Add a proper check to return -EINVAL if sensor_index is negative.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
[groeck: Return error code returned from find_ec_sensor_index]

root cause is:

spin_lock(&r->producer_lock);

//recycle last page to pool
page_pool_release

__page_pool_destroy
free_percpu(pool->recycle_stats);
free(pool) //free
spin_unlock(&r->producer_lock); //pool->ring uaf read
recycle_stat_inc(pool, ring);
page_pool can be free while page pool recycle the last page in ring.
Add producer-lock barrier to page_pool_release to prevent the page
pool from being free before all pages have been recycled.
recycle_stat_inc() is empty when CONFIG_PAGE_POOL_STATS is not
enabled, which will trigger Wempty-body build warning. Add definition
for pool stat macro to fix warning.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
coresight: prevent deactivate active config while enabling the config
While enable active config via cscfg_csdev_enable_active_config(),
active config could be deactivated via configfs' sysfs interface.
This could make UAF issue in below scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
(sysfs enable) load module
cscfg_load_config_sets()
activate config. // sysfs
(sys_active_cnt == 1)
...
cscfg_csdev_enable_active_config()
lock(csdev->cscfg_csdev_lock)
// here load config activate by CPU1
unlock(csdev->cscfg_csdev_lock)
deactivate config // sysfs
(sys_activec_cnt == 0)
cscfg_unload_config_sets()
unload module
// access to config_desc which freed
// while unloading module.
cscfg_csdev_enable_config
To address this, use cscfg_config_desc's active_cnt as a reference count
which will be holded when
- activate the config.
- enable the activated config.
and put the module reference when config_active_cnt == 0.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
coresight: holding cscfg_csdev_lock while removing cscfg from csdev
There'll be possible race scenario for coresight config:
CPU0 CPU1
(perf enable) load module
cscfg_load_config_sets()
activate config. // sysfs
(sys_active_cnt == 1)
...
cscfg_csdev_enable_active_config()
lock(csdev->cscfg_csdev_lock)
deactivate config // sysfs
(sys_activec_cnt == 0)
cscfg_unload_config_sets()
<iterating config_csdev_list> cscfg_remove_owned_csdev_configs()
// here load config activate by CPU1
unlock(csdev->cscfg_csdev_lock)
iterating config_csdev_list could be raced with config_csdev_list's
entry delete.
To resolve this race , hold csdev->cscfg_csdev_lock() while
cscfg_remove_owned_csdev_configs()

netfilter: nf_set_pipapo_avx2: fix initial map fill
If the first field doesn't cover the entire start map, then we must zero
out the remainder, else we leak those bits into the next match round map.
The early fix was incomplete and did only fix up the generic C
implementation.
A followup patch adds a test case to nft_concat_range.sh.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gve: add missing NULL check for gve_alloc_pending_packet() in TX DQO
gve_alloc_pending_packet() can return NULL, but gve_tx_add_skb_dqo()
did not check for this case before dereferencing the returned pointer.
Add a missing NULL check to prevent a potential NULL pointer
dereference when allocation fails.
This improves robustness in low-memory scenarios.

net: wwan: t7xx: Fix napi rx poll issue
When driver handles the napi rx polling requests, the netdev might
have been released by the dellink logic triggered by the disconnect
operation on user plane. However, in the logic of processing skb in
polling, an invalid netdev is still being used, which causes a panic.
