Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 2.6.23.11 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: avoid use-after-free in ext4_ext_show_leaf()
In ext4_find_extent(), path may be freed by error or be reallocated, so
using a previously saved *ppath may have been freed and thus may trigger
use-after-free, as follows:
ext4_split_extent
path = *ppath;
ext4_split_extent_at(ppath)
path = ext4_find_extent(ppath)
ext4_split_extent_at(ppath)
// ext4_find_extent fails to free path
// but zeroout succeeds
ext4_ext_show_leaf(inode, path)
eh = path[depth].p_hdr
// path use-after-free !!!
Similar to ext4_split_extent_at(), we use *ppath directly as an input to
ext4_ext_show_leaf(). Fix a spelling error by the way.
Same problem in ext4_ext_handle_unwritten_extents(). Since 'path' is only
used in ext4_ext_show_leaf(), remove 'path' and use *ppath directly.
This issue is triggered only when EXT_DEBUG is defined and therefore does
not affect functionality.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: lpfc: Validate hdwq pointers before dereferencing in reset/errata paths
When the HBA is undergoing a reset or is handling an errata event, NULL ptr
dereference crashes may occur in routines such as
lpfc_sli_flush_io_rings(), lpfc_dev_loss_tmo_callbk(), or
lpfc_abort_handler().
Add NULL ptr checks before dereferencing hdwq pointers that may have been
freed due to operations colliding with a reset or errata event handler.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Initialize get_bytes_per_element's default to 1
Variables, used as denominators and maybe not assigned to other values,
should not be 0. bytes_per_element_y & bytes_per_element_c are
initialized by get_bytes_per_element() which should never return 0.
This fixes 10 DIVIDE_BY_ZERO issues reported by Coverity.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Check stream_status before it is used
[WHAT & HOW]
dc_state_get_stream_status can return null, and therefore null must be
checked before stream_status is used.
This fixes 1 NULL_RETURNS issue reported by Coverity.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Fix index out of bounds in degamma hardware format translation
Fixes index out of bounds issue in
`cm_helper_translate_curve_to_degamma_hw_format` function. The issue
could occur when the index 'i' exceeds the number of transfer function
points (TRANSFER_FUNC_POINTS).
The fix adds a check to ensure 'i' is within bounds before accessing the
transfer function points. If 'i' is out of bounds the function returns
false to indicate an error.

drm/amd/display: Fix index out of bounds in DCN30 degamma hardware format translation
This commit addresses a potential index out of bounds issue in the
`cm3_helper_translate_curve_to_degamma_hw_format` function in the DCN30
color management module. The issue could occur when the index 'i'
exceeds the number of transfer function points (TRANSFER_FUNC_POINTS).
The fix adds a check to ensure 'i' is within bounds before accessing the

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: wait for fixup workers before stopping cleaner kthread during umount
During unmount, at close_ctree(), we have the following steps in this order:
1) Park the cleaner kthread - this doesn't destroy the kthread, it basically
halts its execution (wake ups against it work but do nothing);
2) We stop the cleaner kthread - this results in freeing the respective
struct task_struct;
3) We call btrfs_stop_all_workers() which waits for any jobs running in all
the work queues and then free the work queues.
Syzbot reported a case where a fixup worker resulted in a crash when doing
a delayed iput on its inode while attempting to wake up the cleaner at
btrfs_add_delayed_iput(), because the task_struct of the cleaner kthread
was already freed. This can happen during unmount because we don't wait
for any fixup workers still running before we call kthread_stop() against
the cleaner kthread, which stops and free all its resources.
Fix this by waiting for any fixup workers at close_ctree() before we call
kthread_stop() against the cleaner and run pending delayed iputs.
The stack traces reported by syzbot were the following:

[CAUSE]
The allocation failure happens at the start_transaction() inside
prepare_to_relocate(), and during the error handling we call
unset_reloc_control(), which makes fs_info->balance_ctl to be NULL.
Then we continue the error path cleanup in btrfs_balance() by calling
reset_balance_state() which will call del_balance_item() to fully delete
the balance item in the root tree.
However during the small window between set_reloc_contrl() and
unset_reloc_control(), we can have a subvolume tree update and created a
reloc_root for that subvolume.
Then we go into the final btrfs_commit_transaction() of
del_balance_item(), and into btrfs_update_reloc_root() inside
commit_fs_roots().
That function checks if fs_info->reloc_ctl is in the merge_reloc_tree
stage, but since fs_info->reloc_ctl is NULL, it results a NULL pointer
dereference.
[FIX]
Just add extra check on fs_info->reloc_ctl inside
btrfs_update_reloc_root(), before checking
fs_info->reloc_ctl->merge_reloc_tree.
That DEAD_RELOC_TREE handling is to prevent further modification to the
reloc tree during merge stage, but since there is no reloc_ctl at all,
we do not need to bother that.
