Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 2.0.35 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: hub: Ignore non-compliant devices with too many configs or interfaces
Robert Morris created a test program which can cause
usb_hub_to_struct_hub() to dereference a NULL or inappropriate
pointer:

The cause of this error is that the device has two interfaces, and the
hub driver binds to interface 1 instead of interface 0, which is where
usb_hub_to_struct_hub() looks.
We can prevent the problem from occurring by refusing to accept hub
devices that violate the USB spec by having more than one
configuration or interface.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: avoid buffer overflow attach in smu_sys_set_pp_table()
It malicious user provides a small pptable through sysfs and then
a bigger pptable, it may cause buffer overflow attack in function
smu_sys_set_pp_table().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
partitions: mac: fix handling of bogus partition table
Fix several issues in partition probing:
- The bailout for a bad partoffset must use put_dev_sector(), since the
preceding read_part_sector() succeeded.
- If the partition table claims a silly sector size like 0xfff bytes
(which results in partition table entries straddling sector boundaries),
bail out instead of accessing out-of-bounds memory.
- We must not assume that the partition table contains proper NUL
termination - use strnlen() and strncmp() instead of strlen() and
strcmp().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: brcmfmac: fix NULL pointer dereference in brcmf_txfinalize()
On removal of the device or unloading of the kernel module a potential NULL
pointer dereference occurs.
The following sequence deletes the interface:
brcmf_detach()
brcmf_remove_interface()
brcmf_del_if()
Inside the brcmf_del_if() function the drvr->if2bss[ifidx] is updated to
BRCMF_BSSIDX_INVALID (-1) if the bsscfgidx matches.
After brcmf_remove_interface() call the brcmf_proto_detach() function is
called providing the following sequence:
brcmf_detach()
brcmf_proto_detach()
brcmf_proto_msgbuf_detach()
brcmf_flowring_detach()
brcmf_msgbuf_delete_flowring()
brcmf_msgbuf_remove_flowring()
brcmf_flowring_delete()
brcmf_get_ifp()
brcmf_txfinalize()
Since brcmf_get_ip() can and actually will return NULL in this case the
call to brcmf_txfinalize() will result in a NULL pointer dereference inside
brcmf_txfinalize() when trying to update ifp->ndev->stats.tx_errors.
This will only happen if a flowring still has an skb.
Although the NULL pointer dereference has only been seen when trying to
update the tx statistic, all other uses of the ifp pointer have been
guarded as well with an early return if ifp is NULL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: brcmfmac: Check the return value of of_property_read_string_index()
Somewhen between 6.10 and 6.11 the driver started to crash on my
MacBookPro14,3. The property doesn't exist and 'tmp' remains
uninitialized, so we pass a random pointer to devm_kstrdup().
The crash I am getting looks like this:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: HWS, change error flow on matcher disconnect
Currently, when firmware failure occurs during matcher disconnect flow,
the error flow of the function reconnects the matcher back and returns
an error, which continues running the calling function and eventually
frees the matcher that is being disconnected.
This leads to a case where we have a freed matcher on the matchers list,
which in turn leads to use-after-free and eventual crash.
This patch fixes that by not trying to reconnect the matcher back when
some FW command fails during disconnect.
Note that we're dealing here with FW error. We can't overcome this
problem. This might lead to bad steering state (e.g. wrong connection
between matchers), and will also lead to resource leakage, as it is
the case with any other error handling during resource destruction.
However, the goal here is to allow the driver to continue and not crash
the machine with use-after-free error.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ata: libata-sff: Ensure that we cannot write outside the allocated buffer
reveliofuzzing reported that a SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND ioctl with out_len
set to 0xd42, SCSI command set to ATA_16 PASS-THROUGH, ATA command set to
ATA_NOP, and protocol set to ATA_PROT_PIO, can cause ata_pio_sector() to
write outside the allocated buffer, overwriting random memory.
While a ATA device is supposed to abort a ATA_NOP command, there does seem
to be a bug either in libata-sff or QEMU, where either this status is not
set, or the status is cleared before read by ata_sff_hsm_move().
Anyway, that is most likely a separate bug.
Looking at __atapi_pio_bytes(), it already has a safety check to ensure
that __atapi_pio_bytes() cannot write outside the allocated buffer.
Add a similar check to ata_pio_sector(), such that also ata_pio_sector()
cannot write outside the allocated buffer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
platform/x86: int3472: Check for adev == NULL
Not all devices have an ACPI companion fwnode, so adev might be NULL. This
can e.g. (theoretically) happen when a user manually binds one of
the int3472 drivers to another i2c/platform device through sysfs.
Add a check for adev not being set and return -ENODEV in that case to
avoid a possible NULL pointer deref in skl_int3472_get_acpi_buffer().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: SOF: Intel: hda-dai: Ensure DAI widget is valid during params
Each cpu DAI should associate with a widget. However, the topology might
not create the right number of DAI widgets for aggregated amps. And it
will cause NULL pointer deference.
Check that the DAI widget associated with the CPU DAI is valid to prevent
NULL pointer deference due to missing DAI widgets in topologies with
aggregated amps.
