Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 4.19.246 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: Add bounds checking to ib_{get,set}_value
The uvd/vce/vcn code accesses the IB at predefined offsets without
checking that the IB is large enough. Check the bounds here. The caller
is responsible for making sure it can handle arbitrary return values.
Also make the idx a uint32_t to prevent overflows causing the condition
to fail.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu/sdma4: replace BUG_ON with WARN_ON in fence emission
sdma_v4_0_ring_emit_fence() contains two BUG_ON(addr & 0x3) assertions
that verify fence writeback addresses are dword-aligned. These
assertions can be reached from unprivileged userspace via crafted
DRM_IOCTL_AMDGPU_CS submissions, causing a fatal kernel panic in a
scheduler worker thread.
Replace both BUG_ON() calls with WARN_ON() to log the condition without
crashing the kernel. A misaligned fence address at this point indicates
a driver bug, but crashing the kernel is never the correct response when
the assertion is reachable from userspace.
The CS IOCTL path is the correct place to filter invalid submissions;
the ring emission callback is too late to do anything about it.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: media: atomisp: Disallow all private IOCTLs
Disallow all private IOCTLs. These aren't quite as safe as one could
assume of IOCTL handlers; disable them for now. Instead of removing the
code, return in the beginning of the function if cmd is non-zero in order
to keep static checkers happy.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: stop tp_meter sessions during mesh teardown
TP meter sessions remain linked on bat_priv->tp_list after the netlink
request has already finished. When the mesh interface is removed,
batadv_mesh_free() currently tears down the mesh without first draining
these sessions.
A running sender thread or a late incoming tp_meter packet can then keep
processing against a mesh instance which is already shutting down.
Synchronize tp_meter with the mesh lifetime by stopping all active
sessions from batadv_mesh_free() and waiting for sender threads to exit
before teardown continues.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/gem: Fix inconsistent plane dimension calculation in drm_gem_fb_init_with_funcs()
drm_gem_fb_init_with_funcs() computes sub-sampled plane dimensions
using plain integer division:
unsigned int width = mode_cmd->width / (i ? info->hsub : 1);
unsigned int height = mode_cmd->height / (i ? info->vsub : 1);
However, the ioctl-level framebuffer_check() in drm_framebuffer.c uses
drm_format_info_plane_width/height() which round up dimensions via
DIV_ROUND_UP(). This inconsistency corrupts the subsequent GEM object
size check for certain pixel format and dimension combinations.
For example, with NV12 (vsub=2) and a 1-pixel-tall framebuffer the
GEM size validation path sees height=0 instead of height=1. The
expression (height - 1) then wraps to UINT_MAX as an unsigned int,
causing min_size to overflow and wrap back to a small value. A tiny
GEM object therefore passes the size guard, yet when the GPU accesses
the chroma plane it will read or write memory beyond the object's
bounds.
Fix by replacing the open-coded divisions with drm_format_info_plane_width()
and drm_format_info_plane_height(), which use DIV_ROUND_UP() and match
the calculation already used in framebuffer_check().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: bla: prevent use-after-free when deleting claims
When batadv_bla_del_backbone_claims() removes all claims for a backbone, it
does this by dropping the link entry in the hash list. This list entry
itself was one of the references which need to be dropped at the same time
via batadv_claim_put().
But the batadv_claim_put() must not be done before the last access to the
claim object in this function. Otherwise the claim might be freed already
by the batadv_claim_release() function before the list entry was dropped.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracepoint: balance regfunc() on func_add() failure in tracepoint_add_func()
When a tracepoint goes through the 0 -> 1 transition, tracepoint_add_func()
invokes the subsystem's ext->regfunc() before attempting to install the
new probe via func_add(). If func_add() then fails (for example, when
allocate_probes() cannot allocate a new probe array under memory pressure
and returns -ENOMEM), the function returns the error without calling the
matching ext->unregfunc(), leaving the side effects of regfunc() behind
with no installed probe to justify them.
For syscall tracepoints this is particularly unpleasant: syscall_regfunc()
bumps sys_tracepoint_refcount and sets SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT on every task.
After a leaked failure, the refcount is stuck at a non-zero value with no
consumer, and every task continues paying the syscall trace entry/exit
overhead until reboot. Other subsystems providing regfunc()/unregfunc()
pairs exhibit similarly scoped persistent state.
Mirror the existing 1 -> 0 cleanup and call ext->unregfunc() in the
func_add() error path, gated on the same condition used there so the
unwind is symmetric with the registration.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: fix integer overflow on buff_pos
Fixing an integer overflow present in batadv_iv_ogm_send_to_if. The size
check is done using the int type in batadv_iv_ogm_aggr_packet whereas the
buff_pos variable uses the s16 type. This could lead to an out-of-bound
read.
