Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 4.19.303 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: zoned: initialize device's zone info for seeding
When performing seeding on a zoned filesystem it is necessary to
initialize each zoned device's btrfs_zoned_device_info structure,
otherwise mounting the filesystem will cause a NULL pointer dereference.
This was uncovered by fstests' testcase btrfs/163.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ata: libata-transport: fix error handling in ata_tdev_add()
In ata_tdev_add(), the return value of transport_add_device() is
not checked. As a result, it causes null-ptr-deref while removing
the module, because transport_remove_device() is called to remove
the device that was not added.

In register_synth_event(), if set_synth_event_print_fmt() failed, then
both trace_remove_event_call() and unregister_trace_event() will be
called, which means the trace_event_call will call
__unregister_trace_event() twice. As the result, the second unregister
will causes the wild-memory-access.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: zfcp: Fix double free of FSF request when qdio send fails
We used to use the wrong type of integer in 'zfcp_fsf_req_send()' to cache
the FSF request ID when sending a new FSF request. This is used in case the
sending fails and we need to remove the request from our internal hash
table again (so we don't keep an invalid reference and use it when we free
the request again).
In 'zfcp_fsf_req_send()' we used to cache the ID as 'int' (signed and 32
bit wide), but the rest of the zfcp code (and the firmware specification)
handles the ID as 'unsigned long'/'u64' (unsigned and 64 bit wide [s390x
ELF ABI]). For one this has the obvious problem that when the ID grows
past 32 bit (this can happen reasonably fast) it is truncated to 32 bit
when storing it in the cache variable and so doesn't match the original ID
anymore. The second less obvious problem is that even when the original ID
has not yet grown past 32 bit, as soon as the 32nd bit is set in the
original ID (0x80000000 = 2'147'483'648) we will have a mismatch when we
cast it back to 'unsigned long'. As the cached variable is of a signed
type, the compiler will choose a sign-extending instruction to load the 32
bit variable into a 64 bit register (e.g.: 'lgf %r11,188(%r15)'). So once
we pass the cached variable into 'zfcp_reqlist_find_rm()' to remove the
request again all the leading zeros will be flipped to ones to extend the
sign and won't match the original ID anymore (this has been observed in
practice).
If we can't successfully remove the request from the hash table again after
'zfcp_qdio_send()' fails (this happens regularly when zfcp cannot notify
the adapter about new work because the adapter is already gone during
e.g. a ChpID toggle) we will end up with a double free. We unconditionally
free the request in the calling function when 'zfcp_fsf_req_send()' fails,
but because the request is still in the hash table we end up with a stale
memory reference, and once the zfcp adapter is either reset during recovery
or shutdown we end up freeing the same memory twice.
The resulting stack traces vary depending on the kernel and have no direct
correlation to the place where the bug occurs. Here are three examples that
have been seen in practice:
list_del corruption. next->prev should be 00000001b9d13800, but was 00000000dead4ead. (next=00000001bd131a00)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Prevent bpf program recursion for raw tracepoint probes
We got report from sysbot [1] about warnings that were caused by
bpf program attached to contention_begin raw tracepoint triggering
the same tracepoint by using bpf_trace_printk helper that takes
trace_printk_lock lock.

The can be reproduced by attaching bpf program as raw tracepoint on
contention_begin tracepoint. The bpf prog calls bpf_trace_printk
helper. Then by running perf bench the spin lock code is forced to
take slow path and call contention_begin tracepoint.
Fixing this by skipping execution of the bpf program if it's
already running, Using bpf prog 'active' field, which is being
currently used by trampoline programs for the same reason.
Moving bpf_prog_inc_misses_counter to syscall.c because
trampoline.c is compiled in just for CONFIG_BPF_JIT option.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/9p: use a dedicated spinlock for trans_fd
Shamelessly copying the explanation from Tetsuo Handa's suggested
patch[1] (slightly reworded):
syzbot is reporting inconsistent lock state in p9_req_put()[2],
for p9_tag_remove() from p9_req_put() from IRQ context is using
spin_lock_irqsave() on "struct p9_client"->lock but trans_fd
(not from IRQ context) is using spin_lock().
Since the locks actually protect different things in client.c and in
trans_fd.c, just replace trans_fd.c's lock by a new one specific to the
transport (client.c's protect the idr for fid/tag allocations,
while trans_fd.c's protects its own req list and request status field
that acts as the transport's state machine)
