Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 2.6.32.2 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
driver core: bus: Fix double free in driver API bus_register()
For bus_register(), any error which happens after kset_register() will
cause that @priv are freed twice, fixed by setting @priv with NULL after
the first free.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: typec: tipd: Free IRQ only if it was requested before
In polling mode, if no IRQ was requested there is no need to free it.
Call devm_free_irq() only if client->irq is set. This fixes the warning
caused by the tps6598x module removal:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: protect uart_port_dtr_rts() in uart_shutdown() too
Commit af224ca2df29 (serial: core: Prevent unsafe uart port access, part
3) added few uport == NULL checks. It added one to uart_shutdown(), so
the commit assumes, uport can be NULL in there. But right after that
protection, there is an unprotected "uart_port_dtr_rts(uport, false);"
call. That is invoked only if HUPCL is set, so I assume that is the
reason why we do not see lots of these reports.
Or it cannot be NULL at this point at all for some reason :P.
Until the above is investigated, stay on the safe side and move this
dereference to the if too.
I got this inconsistency from Coverity under CID 1585130. Thanks.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ppp: fix ppp_async_encode() illegal access

In this case, pppoe_sendmsg() is called with a zero size.
Then ppp_async_encode() is called with an empty skb.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: xtables: avoid NFPROTO_UNSPEC where needed
syzbot managed to call xt_cluster match via ebtables:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 11 at net/netfilter/xt_cluster.c:72 xt_cluster_mt+0x196/0x780
[..]
ebt_do_table+0x174b/0x2a40
Module registers to NFPROTO_UNSPEC, but it assumes ipv4/ipv6 packet
processing. As this is only useful to restrict locally terminating
TCP/UDP traffic, register this for ipv4 and ipv6 family only.
Pablo points out that this is a general issue, direct users of the
set/getsockopt interface can call into targets/matches that were only
intended for use with ip(6)tables.
Check all UNSPEC matches and targets for similar issues:
- matches and targets are fine except if they assume skb_network_header()
is valid -- this is only true when called from inet layer: ip(6) stack
pulls the ip/ipv6 header into linear data area.
- targets that return XT_CONTINUE or other xtables verdicts must be
restricted too, they are incompatbile with the ebtables traverser, e.g.
EBT_CONTINUE is a completely different value than XT_CONTINUE.
Most matches/targets are changed to register for NFPROTO_IPV4/IPV6, as
they are provided for use by ip(6)tables.
The MARK target is also used by arptables, so register for NFPROTO_ARP too.
While at it, bail out if connbytes fails to enable the corresponding
conntrack family.
This change passes the selftests in iptables.git.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: accept TCA_STAB only for root qdisc
Most qdiscs maintain their backlog using qdisc_pkt_len(skb)
on the assumption it is invariant between the enqueue()
and dequeue() handlers.
Unfortunately syzbot can crash a host rather easily using
a TBF + SFQ combination, with an STAB on SFQ [1]
We can't support TCA_STAB on arbitrary level, this would
require to maintain per-qdisc storage.
