Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 2.0.22 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xtensa: Fix refcount leak bug in time.c
In calibrate_ccount(), of_find_compatible_node() will return a node
pointer with refcount incremented. We should use of_node_put() when
it is not used anymore.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm raid: fix KASAN warning in raid5_add_disks
There's a KASAN warning in raid5_add_disk when running the LVM testsuite.
The warning happens in the test
lvconvert-raid-reshape-linear_to_raid6-single-type.sh. We fix the warning
by verifying that rdev->saved_raid_disk is within limits.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm raid: fix accesses beyond end of raid member array
On dm-raid table load (using raid_ctr), dm-raid allocates an array
rs->devs[rs->raid_disks] for the raid device members. rs->raid_disks
is defined by the number of raid metadata and image tupples passed
into the target's constructor.
In the case of RAID layout changes being requested, that number can be
different from the current number of members for existing raid sets as
defined in their superblocks. Example RAID layout changes include:
- raid1 legs being added/removed
- raid4/5/6/10 number of stripes changed (stripe reshaping)
- takeover to higher raid level (e.g. raid5 -> raid6)
When accessing array members, rs->raid_disks must be used in control
loops instead of the potentially larger value in rs->md.raid_disks.
Otherwise it will cause memory access beyond the end of the rs->devs
array.
Fix this by changing code that is prone to out-of-bounds access.
Also fix validate_raid_redundancy() to validate all devices that are
added. Also, use braces to help clean up raid_iterate_devices().
The out-of-bounds memory accesses was discovered using KASAN.
This commit was verified to pass all LVM2 RAID tests (with KASAN
enabled).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xtensa: xtfpga: Fix refcount leak bug in setup
In machine_setup(), of_find_compatible_node() will return a node
pointer with refcount incremented. We should use of_node_put() when
it is not used anymore.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
srcu: Tighten cleanup_srcu_struct() GP checks
Currently, cleanup_srcu_struct() checks for a grace period in progress,
but it does not check for a grace period that has not yet started but
which might start at any time. Such a situation could result in a
use-after-free bug, so this commit adds a check for a grace period that
is needed but not yet started to cleanup_srcu_struct().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinctrl: aspeed: Fix potential NULL dereference in aspeed_pinmux_set_mux()
pdesc could be null but still dereference pdesc->name and it will lead to
a null pointer access. So we move a null check before dereference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: sfp: fix memory leak in sfp_probe()
sfp_probe() allocates a memory chunk from sfp with sfp_alloc(). When
devm_add_action() fails, sfp is not freed, which leads to a memory leak.
We should use devm_add_action_or_reset() instead of devm_add_action().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cpufreq: pmac32-cpufreq: Fix refcount leak bug
In pmac_cpufreq_init_MacRISC3(), we need to add corresponding
of_node_put() for the three node pointers whose refcount have
been incremented by of_find_node_by_name().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: avoid skb access on nf_stolen
When verdict is NF_STOLEN, the skb might have been freed.
When tracing is enabled, this can result in a use-after-free:
1. access to skb->nf_trace
2. access to skb->mark
3. computation of trace id
4. dump of packet payload
To avoid 1, keep a cached copy of skb->nf_trace in the
trace state struct.
Refresh this copy whenever verdict is != STOLEN.
Avoid 2 by skipping skb->mark access if verdict is STOLEN.
3 is avoided by precomputing the trace id.
Only dump the packet when verdict is not "STOLEN".
