Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: mgb4: protect driver against spectre
Frequency range is set from sysfs via frequency_range_store(),
being vulnerable to spectre, as reported by smatch:
drivers/media/pci/mgb4/mgb4_cmt.c:231 mgb4_cmt_set_vin_freq_range() warn: potential spectre issue 'cmt_vals_in' [r]
drivers/media/pci/mgb4/mgb4_cmt.c:238 mgb4_cmt_set_vin_freq_range() warn: possible spectre second half. 'reg_set'
Fix it.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: dvbdev: prevent the risk of out of memory access
The dvbdev contains a static variable used to store dvb minors.
The behavior of it depends if CONFIG_DVB_DYNAMIC_MINORS is set
or not. When not set, dvb_register_device() won't check for
boundaries, as it will rely that a previous call to
dvb_register_adapter() would already be enforcing it.
On a similar way, dvb_device_open() uses the assumption
that the register functions already did the needed checks.
This can be fragile if some device ends using different
calls. This also generate warnings on static check analysers
like Coverity.
So, add explicit guards to prevent potential risk of OOM issues.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
idpf: fix idpf_vc_core_init error path
In an event where the platform running the device control plane
is rebooted, reset is detected on the driver. It releases
all the resources and waits for the reset to complete. Once the
reset is done, it tries to build the resources back. At this
time if the device control plane is not yet started, then
the driver timeouts on the virtchnl message and retries to
establish the mailbox again.
In the retry flow, mailbox is deinitialized but the mailbox
workqueue is still alive and polling for the mailbox message.
This results in accessing the released control queue leading to
null-ptr-deref. Fix it by unrolling the work queue cancellation
and mailbox deinitialization in the reverse order which they got
initialized.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/slab: fix warning caused by duplicate kmem_cache creation in kmem_buckets_create
Commit b035f5a6d852 ("mm: slab: reduce the kmalloc() minimum alignment
if DMA bouncing possible") reduced ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to 8 on arm64.
However, with KASAN_HW_TAGS enabled, arch_slab_minalign() becomes 16.
This causes kmalloc_caches[*][8] to be aliased to kmalloc_caches[*][16],
resulting in kmem_buckets_create() attempting to create a kmem_cache for
size 16 twice. This duplication triggers warnings on boot:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/panthor: Be stricter about IO mapping flags
The current panthor_device_mmap_io() implementation has two issues:
1. For mapping DRM_PANTHOR_USER_FLUSH_ID_MMIO_OFFSET,
panthor_device_mmap_io() bails if VM_WRITE is set, but does not clear
VM_MAYWRITE. That means userspace can use mprotect() to make the mapping
writable later on. This is a classic Linux driver gotcha.
I don't think this actually has any impact in practice:
When the GPU is powered, writes to the FLUSH_ID seem to be ignored; and
when the GPU is not powered, the dummy_latest_flush page provided by the
driver is deliberately designed to not do any flushes, so the only thing
writing to the dummy_latest_flush could achieve would be to make *more*
flushes happen.
2. panthor_device_mmap_io() does not block MAP_PRIVATE mappings (which are
mappings without the VM_SHARED flag).
MAP_PRIVATE in combination with VM_MAYWRITE indicates that the VMA has
copy-on-write semantics, which for VM_PFNMAP are semi-supported but
fairly cursed.
In particular, in such a mapping, the driver can only install PTEs
during mmap() by calling remap_pfn_range() (because remap_pfn_range()
wants to **store the physical address of the mapped physical memory into
the vm_pgoff of the VMA**); installing PTEs later on with a fault
handler (as panthor does) is not supported in private mappings, and so
if you try to fault in such a mapping, vmf_insert_pfn_prot() splats when
it hits a BUG() check.
Fix it by clearing the VM_MAYWRITE flag (userspace writing to the FLUSH_ID
doesn't make sense) and requiring VM_SHARED (copy-on-write semantics for
the FLUSH_ID don't make sense).
Reproducers for both scenarios are in the notes of my patch on the mailing
list; I tested that these bugs exist on a Rock 5B machine.
Note that I only compile-tested the patch, I haven't tested it; I don't
have a working kernel build setup for the test machine yet. Please test it
before applying it.
