Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 6.6.62 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: brcm80211: fmac: Add error handling for brcmf_usb_dl_writeimage()
The function brcmf_usb_dl_writeimage() calls the function
brcmf_usb_dl_cmd() but dose not check its return value. The
'state.state' and the 'state.bytes' are uninitialized if the
function brcmf_usb_dl_cmd() fails. It is dangerous to use
uninitialized variables in the conditions.
Add error handling for brcmf_usb_dl_cmd() to jump to error
handling path if the brcmf_usb_dl_cmd() fails and the
'state.state' and the 'state.bytes' are uninitialized.
Improve the error message to report more detailed error
information.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
parisc: Fix double SIGFPE crash
Camm noticed that on parisc a SIGFPE exception will crash an application with
a second SIGFPE in the signal handler. Dave analyzed it, and it happens
because glibc uses a double-word floating-point store to atomically update
function descriptors. As a result of lazy binding, we hit a floating-point
store in fpe_func almost immediately.
When the T bit is set, an assist exception trap occurs when when the
co-processor encounters *any* floating-point instruction except for a double
store of register %fr0. The latter cancels all pending traps. Let's fix this
by clearing the Trap (T) bit in the FP status register before returning to the
signal handler in userspace.
The issue can be reproduced with this test program:
root@parisc:~# cat fpe.c
static void fpe_func(int sig, siginfo_t *i, void *v) {
sigset_t set;
sigemptyset(&set);
sigaddset(&set, SIGFPE);
sigprocmask(SIG_UNBLOCK, &set, NULL);
printf("GOT signal %d with si_code %ld\n", sig, i->si_code);
}
int main() {
struct sigaction action = {
.sa_sigaction = fpe_func,
.sa_flags = SA_RESTART|SA_SIGINFO };
sigaction(SIGFPE, &action, 0);
feenableexcept(FE_OVERFLOW);
return printf("%lf\n",1.7976931348623158E308*1.7976931348623158E308);
}
root@parisc:~# gcc fpe.c -lm
root@parisc:~# ./a.out
Floating point exception
root@parisc:~# strace -f ./a.out
execve("./a.out", ["./a.out"], 0xf9ac7034 /* 20 vars */) = 0
getrlimit(RLIMIT_STACK, {rlim_cur=8192*1024, rlim_max=RLIM_INFINITY}) = 0
...
rt_sigaction(SIGFPE, {sa_handler=0x1110a, sa_mask=[], sa_flags=SA_RESTART|SA_SIGINFO}, NULL, 8) = 0
--- SIGFPE {si_signo=SIGFPE, si_code=FPE_FLTOVF, si_addr=0x1078f} ---
--- SIGFPE {si_signo=SIGFPE, si_code=FPE_FLTOVF, si_addr=0xf8f21237} ---

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: ufs: exynos: Disable iocc if dma-coherent property isn't set
If dma-coherent property isn't set then descriptors are non-cacheable
and the iocc shareability bits should be disabled. Without this UFS can
end up in an incompatible configuration and suffer from random cache
related stability issues.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: qcom: Fix sc7280 lpass potential buffer overflow
Case values introduced in commit
5f78e1fb7a3e ("ASoC: qcom: Add driver support for audioreach solution")
cause out of bounds access in arrays of sc7280 driver data (e.g. in case
of RX_CODEC_DMA_RX_0 in sc7280_snd_hw_params()).
Redefine LPASS_MAX_PORTS to consider the maximum possible port id for
q6dsp as sc7280 driver utilizes some of those values.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: fix resource leak in blk_register_queue() error path
When registering a queue fails after blk_mq_sysfs_register() is
successful but the function later encounters an error, we need
to clean up the blk_mq_sysfs resources.
Add the missing blk_mq_sysfs_unregister() call in the error path
to properly clean up these resources and prevent a memory leak.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: wl1251: fix memory leak in wl1251_tx_work
The skb dequeued from tx_queue is lost when wl1251_ps_elp_wakeup fails
with a -ETIMEDOUT error. Fix that by queueing the skb back to tx_queue.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: typec: ucsi: displayport: Fix deadlock
This patch introduces the ucsi_con_mutex_lock / ucsi_con_mutex_unlock
functions to the UCSI driver. ucsi_con_mutex_lock ensures the connector
mutex is only locked if a connection is established and the partner pointer
is valid. This resolves a deadlock scenario where
ucsi_displayport_remove_partner holds con->mutex waiting for
dp_altmode_work to complete while dp_altmode_work attempts to acquire it.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: light: opt3001: fix deadlock due to concurrent flag access
The threaded IRQ function in this driver is reading the flag twice: once to
lock a mutex and once to unlock it. Even though the code setting the flag
is designed to prevent it, there are subtle cases where the flag could be
true at the mutex_lock stage and false at the mutex_unlock stage. This
results in the mutex not being unlocked, resulting in a deadlock.
Fix it by making the opt3001_irq() code generally more robust, reading the
flag into a variable and using the variable value at both stages.
