Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hfsplus: don't query the device logical block size multiple times
Devices block sizes may change. One of these cases is a loop device by
using ioctl LOOP_SET_BLOCK_SIZE.
While this may cause other issues like IO being rejected, in the case of
hfsplus, it will allocate a block by using that size and potentially write
out-of-bounds when hfsplus_read_wrapper calls hfsplus_submit_bio and the
latter function reads a different io_size.
Using a new min_io_size initally set to sb_min_blocksize works for the
purposes of the original fix, since it will be set to the max between
HFSPLUS_SECTOR_SIZE and the first seen logical block size. We still use the
max between HFSPLUS_SECTOR_SIZE and min_io_size in case the latter is not
initialized.
Tested by mounting an hfsplus filesystem with loop block sizes 512, 1024
and 4096.
The produced KASAN report before the fix looks like this:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cachefiles: Fix NULL pointer dereference in object->file
At present, the object->file has the NULL pointer dereference problem in
ondemand-mode. The root cause is that the allocated fd and object->file
lifetime are inconsistent, and the user-space invocation to anon_fd uses
object->file. Following is the process that triggers the issue:
[write fd] [umount]
cachefiles_ondemand_fd_write_iter
fscache_cookie_state_machine
cachefiles_withdraw_cookie
if (!file) return -ENOBUFS
cachefiles_clean_up_object
cachefiles_unmark_inode_in_use
fput(object->file)
object->file = NULL
// file NULL pointer dereference!
__cachefiles_write(..., file, ...)
Fix this issue by add an additional reference count to the object->file
before write/llseek, and decrement after it finished.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtw89: coex: check NULL return of kmalloc in btc_fw_set_monreg()
kmalloc may fail, return value might be NULL and will cause
NULL pointer dereference. Add check NULL return of kmalloc in
btc_fw_set_monreg().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: cw1200: Fix potential NULL dereference
A recent refactoring was identified by static analysis to
cause a potential NULL dereference, fix this!
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm: xlnx: zynqmp_disp: layer may be null while releasing
layer->info can be null if we have an error on the first layer in
zynqmp_disp_create_layers
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm: zynqmp_kms: Unplug DRM device before removal
Prevent userspace accesses to the DRM device from causing
use-after-frees by unplugging the device before we remove it. This
causes any further userspace accesses to result in an error without
further calls into this driver's internals.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mwifiex: Fix memcpy() field-spanning write warning in mwifiex_config_scan()
Replace one-element array with a flexible-array member in `struct
mwifiex_ie_types_wildcard_ssid_params` to fix the following warning
on a MT8173 Chromebook (mt8173-elm-hana):
[ 356.775250] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[ 356.784543] memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 6) of single field "wildcard_ssid_tlv->ssid" at drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/scan.c:904 (size 1)
[ 356.813403] WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 742 at drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/scan.c:904 mwifiex_scan_networks+0x4fc/0xf28 [mwifiex]
The "(size 6)" above is exactly the length of the SSID of the network
this device was connected to. The source of the warning looks like:
ssid_len = user_scan_in->ssid_list[i].ssid_len;
[...]
memcpy(wildcard_ssid_tlv->ssid,
user_scan_in->ssid_list[i].ssid, ssid_len);
There is a #define WILDCARD_SSID_TLV_MAX_SIZE that uses sizeof() on this
struct, but it already didn't account for the size of the one-element
array, so it doesn't need to be changed.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
accel/ivpu: Prevent recovery invocation during probe and resume
Refactor IPC send and receive functions to allow correct
handling of operations that should not trigger a recovery process.
Expose ivpu_send_receive_internal(), which is now utilized by the D0i3
entry, DCT initialization, and HWS initialization functions.
These functions have been modified to return error codes gracefully,
rather than initiating recovery.
The updated functions are invoked within ivpu_probe() and ivpu_resume(),
ensuring that any errors encountered during these stages result in a proper
teardown or shutdown sequence. The previous approach of triggering recovery
within these functions could lead to a race condition, potentially causing
undefined behavior and kernel crashes due to null pointer dereferences.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath12k: fix use-after-free in ath12k_dp_cc_cleanup()
During ath12k module removal, in ath12k_core_deinit(),
ath12k_mac_destroy() un-registers ah->hw from mac80211 and frees
the ah->hw as well as all the ar's in it. After this
ath12k_core_soc_destroy()-> ath12k_dp_free()-> ath12k_dp_cc_cleanup()
tries to access one of the freed ar's from pending skb.
This is because during mac destroy, driver failed to flush few
data packets, which were accessed later in ath12k_dp_cc_cleanup()
and freed, but using ar from the packet led to this use-after-free.

Commit 24de1b7b231c ("wifi: ath12k: fix flush failure in recovery
scenarios") added the change to decrement the pending packets count
in case of recovery which make sense as ah->hw as well all
ar's in it are intact during recovery, but during core deinit there
is no use in decrementing packets count or waking up the empty waitq
as the module is going to be removed also ar's from pending skb's
can't be used and the packets should just be released back.
To fix this, avoid accessing ar from skb->cb when driver is being
unregistered.

This is caused by lost memory during early init phase. First time driver
is removed, memory is freed but when second time the driver is inserted,
VBIOS dmub is not active, since the PSP policy is to retain the driver
loaded version on subsequent warm boots. Hence, communication with VBIOS
DMUB fails.
Fix this by aborting further comm
