Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 4.19.149 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: solo6x10: fix possible memory leak in solo_sysfs_init()
If device_register() returns error in solo_sysfs_init(), the
name allocated by dev_set_name() need be freed. As comment of
device_register() says, it should use put_device() to give up
the reference in the error path. So fix this by calling
put_device(), then the name can be freed in kobject_cleanup().

ARM: OMAP2+: omap4-common: Fix refcount leak bug
In omap4_sram_init(), of_find_compatible_node() will return a node
pointer with refcount incremented. We should use of_node_put() when

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: si470x: Fix use-after-free in si470x_int_in_callback()
syzbot reported use-after-free in si470x_int_in_callback() [1]. This
indicates that urb->context, which contains struct si470x_device
object, is freed when si470x_int_in_callback() is called.
The cause of this issue is that si470x_int_in_callback() is called for
freed urb.
si470x_usb_driver_probe() calls si470x_start_usb(), which then calls
usb_submit_urb() and si470x_start(). If si470x_start_usb() fails,
si470x_usb_driver_probe() doesn't kill urb, but it just frees struct
si470x_device object, as depicted below:
si470x_usb_driver_probe()
...
si470x_start_usb()
...
usb_submit_urb()
retval = si470x_start()
return retval
if (retval < 0)
free struct si470x_device object, but don't kill urb
This patch fixes this issue by killing urb when si470x_start_usb()
fails and urb is submitted. If si470x_start_usb() fails and urb is
not submitted, i.e. submitting usb fails, it just frees struct
si470x_device object.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: host: xhci: Fix potential memory leak in xhci_alloc_stream_info()
xhci_alloc_stream_info() allocates stream context array for stream_info
->stream_ctx_array with xhci_alloc_stream_ctx(). When some error occurs,
stream_info->stream_ctx_array is not released, which will lead to a
memory leak.
We can fix it by releasing the stream_info->stream_ctx_array with
xhci_free_stream_ctx() on the error path to avoid the potential memory
leak.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
r6040: Fix kmemleak in probe and remove
There is a memory leaks reported by kmemleak:
unreferenced object 0xffff888116111000 (size 2048):

[<ffffffffa01f5d24>] r6040_init_one+0x714/0xd2c [r6040]
...
The problem occurs in probe process as follows:
r6040_init_one:
mdiobus_register
mdiobus_scan <- alloc and register phy_device,
the reference count of phy_device is 3
r6040_mii_probe
phy_connect <- connect to the first phy_device,
so the reference count of the first
phy_device is 4, others are 3
register_netdev <- fault inject succeeded, goto error handling path
// error handling path
err_out_mdio_unregister:
mdiobus_unregister(lp->mii_bus);
err_out_mdio:
mdiobus_free(lp->mii_bus); <- the reference count of the first
phy_device is 1, it is not released
and other phy_devices are released
// similarly, the remove process also has the same problem
The root cause is traced to the phy_device is not disconnected when
removes one r6040 device in r6040_remove_one() or on error handling path
after r6040_mii probed successfully. In r6040_mii_probe(), a net ethernet
device is connected to the first PHY device of mii_bus, in order to
notify the connected driver when the link status changes, which is the
default behavior of the PHY infrastructure to handle everything.
Therefore the phy_device should be disconnected when removes one r6040
device or on error handling path.
Fix it by adding phy_disconnect() when removes one r6040 device or on
error handling path after r6040_mii probed successfully.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mcb: mcb-parse: fix error handing in chameleon_parse_gdd()
If mcb_device_register() returns error in chameleon_parse_gdd(), the refcount
of bus and device name are leaked. Fix this by calling put_device() to give up
the reference, so they can be released in mcb_release_dev() and kobject_cleanup().
