Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 6.1.54 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: iscsi: Fix buffer overflow in lio_target_nacl_info_show()
The function lio_target_nacl_info_show() uses sprintf() in a loop to print
details for every iSCSI connection in a session without checking for the
buffer length. With enough iSCSI connections it's possible to overflow the
buffer provided by configfs and corrupt the memory.
This patch replaces sprintf() with sysfs_emit_at() that checks for buffer
boundries.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: Don't tx before switchdev is fully configured
There is possibility that ice_eswitch_port_start_xmit might be
called while some resources are still not allocated which might
cause NULL pointer dereference. Fix this by checking if switchdev
configuration was finished.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: hisi_sas: Grab sas_dev lock when traversing the members of sas_dev.list
When freeing slots in function slot_complete_v3_hw(), it is possible that
sas_dev.list is being traversed elsewhere, and it may trigger a NULL
pointer exception, such as follows:
==>cq thread ==>scsi_eh_6
==>scsi_error_handler()
==>sas_eh_handle_sas_errors()
==>sas_scsi_find_task()
==>lldd_abort_task()
==>slot_complete_v3_hw() ==>hisi_sas_abort_task()
==>hisi_sas_slot_task_free() ==>dereg_device_v3_hw()
==>list_del_init() ==>list_for_each_entry_safe()

JFS_IP(ipimap)->i_imap is not setting to NULL after free in diUnmount.
If jfs_remount() free JFS_IP(ipimap)->i_imap but then failed at diMount().
JFS_IP(ipimap)->i_imap will be freed once again.
Fix this problem by setting JFS_IP(ipimap)->i_imap to NULL after free.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: check for station first in client probe
When probing a client, first check if we have it, and then
check for the channel context, otherwise you can trigger
the warning there easily by probing when the AP isn't even
started yet. Since a client existing means the AP is also
operating, we can then keep the warning.
Also simplify the moved code a bit.

This occurs when logical inode resolution takes a tree mod log sequence
number, and then while backref walking hits a rewind on a busy node
which has the following sequence of tree mod log operations (numbers
filled in from a specific example, but they are somewhat arbitrary)

When this sequence gets applied via btrfs_tree_mod_log_rewind, it
allocates a fresh rewind eb, and first inserts the correct key info for
the 533 elements, then overwrites the first 456 of them, then decrements
the count by 456 via the add ops, then rewinds the move by doing a
memmove from 456:988->0:532. We have never written anything past 532,

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
qed: Don't collect too many protection override GRC elements
In the protection override dump path, the firmware can return far too
many GRC elements, resulting in attempting to write past the end of the
previously-kmalloc'ed dump buffer.
This will result in a kernel panic with reason:
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ADDRESS
where "ADDRESS" is just past the end of the protection override dump
buffer. The start address of the buffer is:
p_hwfn->cdev->dbg_features[DBG_FEATURE_PROTECTION_OVERRIDE].dump_buf
and the size of the buffer is buf_size in the same data structure.
The panic can be arrived at from either the qede Ethernet driver path:
