Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 6.1.119 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/gem: Acquire references on GEM handles for framebuffers
A GEM handle can be released while the GEM buffer object is attached
to a DRM framebuffer. This leads to the release of the dma-buf backing
the buffer object, if any. [1] Trying to use the framebuffer in further
mode-setting operations leads to a segmentation fault. Most easily
happens with driver that use shadow planes for vmap-ing the dma-buf
during a page flip. An example is shown below.

Acquiring GEM handles for the framebuffer's GEM buffer objects prevents
this from happening. The framebuffer's cleanup later puts the handle
references.
Commit 1a148af06000 ("drm/gem-shmem: Use dma_buf from GEM object
instance") triggers the segmentation fault easily by using the dma-buf
field more widely. The underlying issue with reference counting has
been present before.
v2:
- acquire the handle instead of the BO (Christian)
- fix comment style (Christian)
- drop the Fixes tag (Christian)
- rename err_ gotos
- add missing Link tag

nbd_genl_connect() does not properly stop the device on certain
error paths after nbd_start_device() has been called. This causes
the error path to put nbd->config while recv_work continue to use
the config after putting it, leading to use-after-free in recv_work.
This patch moves nbd_start_device() after the backend file creation.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md/raid1: Fix stack memory use after return in raid1_reshape
In the raid1_reshape function, newpool is
allocated on the stack and assigned to conf->r1bio_pool.
This results in conf->r1bio_pool.wait.head pointing
to a stack address.
Accessing this address later can lead to a kernel panic.
Example access path:
raid1_reshape()
{
// newpool is on the stack
mempool_t newpool, oldpool;
// initialize newpool.wait.head to stack address
mempool_init(&newpool, ...);
conf->r1bio_pool = newpool;
}
raid1_read_request() or raid1_write_request()
{
alloc_r1bio()
{
mempool_alloc()
{
// if pool->alloc fails
remove_element()
{
--pool->curr_nr;
}
}
}
}
mempool_free()
{
if (pool->curr_nr < pool->min_nr) {
// pool->wait.head is a stack address
// wake_up() will try to access this invalid address
// which leads to a kernel panic
return;
wake_up(&pool->wait);
}
}
Fix:
reinit conf->r1bio_pool.wait after assigning newpool.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/scheduler: signal scheduled fence when kill job
When an entity from application B is killed, drm_sched_entity_kill()
removes all jobs belonging to that entity through
drm_sched_entity_kill_jobs_work(). If application A's job depends on a
scheduled fence from application B's job, and that fence is not properly
signaled during the killing process, application A's dependency cannot be
cleared.
This leads to application A hanging indefinitely while waiting for a
dependency that will never be resolved. Fix this issue by ensuring that
scheduled fences are properly signaled when an entity is killed, allowing
dependent applications to continue execution.
