Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 2.6.16.29 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gfs2: Fix NULL pointer dereference in gfs2_log_flush
In gfs2_jindex_free(), set sdp->sd_jdesc to NULL under the log flush
lock to provide exclusion against gfs2_log_flush().
In gfs2_log_flush(), check if sdp->sd_jdesc is non-NULL before
dereferencing it. Otherwise, we could run into a NULL pointer
dereference when outstanding glock work races with an unmount
(glock_work_func -> run_queue -> do_xmote -> inode_go_sync ->
gfs2_log_flush).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/restrack: Fix potential invalid address access
struct rdma_restrack_entry's kern_name was set to KBUILD_MODNAME
in ib_create_cq(), while if the module exited but forgot del this
rdma_restrack_entry, it would cause a invalid address access in
rdma_restrack_clean() when print the owner of this rdma_restrack_entry.
These code is used to help find one forgotten PD release in one of the
ULPs. But it is not needed anymore, so delete them.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xdp: Remove WARN() from __xdp_reg_mem_model()
syzkaller reports a warning in __xdp_reg_mem_model().
The warning occurs only if __mem_id_init_hash_table() returns an error. It
returns the error in two cases:
1. memory allocation fails;
2. rhashtable_init() fails when some fields of rhashtable_params
struct are not initialized properly.
The second case cannot happen since there is a static const rhashtable_params
struct with valid fields. So, warning is only triggered when there is a
problem with memory allocation.
Thus, there is no sense in using WARN() to handle this error and it can be
safely removed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ionic: fix kernel panic due to multi-buffer handling
Currently, the ionic_run_xdp() doesn't handle multi-buffer packets
properly for XDP_TX and XDP_REDIRECT.
When a jumbo frame is received, the ionic_run_xdp() first makes xdp
frame with all necessary pages in the rx descriptor.
And if the action is either XDP_TX or XDP_REDIRECT, it should unmap
dma-mapping and reset page pointer to NULL for all pages, not only the
first page.
But it doesn't for SG pages. So, SG pages unexpectedly will be reused.
It eventually causes kernel panic.
Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0x504f4e4dbebc64ff: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI

==========
The reproducer should be in the interpreter mode.
The C reproducer is trying to run the following bpf prog:
0: (18) r0 = 0x0
2: (18) r1 = map[id:49]
4: (b7) r8 = 16777216
5: (7b) *(u64 *)(r10 -8) = r8
6: (bf) r2 = r10
7: (07) r2 += -229
^^^^^^^^^^
8: (b7) r3 = 8
9: (b7) r4 = 0
10: (85) call dev_map_lookup_elem#1543472
11: (95) exit
It is due to the "void *key" (r2) passed to the helper. bpf allows uninit
stack memory access for bpf prog with the right privileges. This patch
uses kmsan_unpoison_memory() to mark the stack as initialized.
This should address different syzbot reports on the uninit "void *key"
argument during map_{lookup,delete}_elem.
