Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 4.10.5 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: usb: smsc75xx: Limit packet length to skb->len
Packet length retrieved from skb data may be larger than
the actual socket buffer length (up to 9026 bytes). In such
case the cloned skb passed up the network stack will leak
kernel memory contents.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
loop: Fix use-after-free issues
do_req_filebacked() calls blk_mq_complete_request() synchronously or
asynchronously when using asynchronous I/O unless memory allocation fails.
Hence, modify loop_handle_cmd() such that it does not dereference 'cmd' nor
'rq' after do_req_filebacked() finished unless we are sure that the request
has not yet been completed. This patch fixes the following kernel crash:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000054

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvmet: avoid potential UAF in nvmet_req_complete()
An nvme target ->queue_response() operation implementation may free the
request passed as argument. Such implementation potentially could result
in a use after free of the request pointer when percpu_ref_put() is
called in nvmet_req_complete().
Avoid such problem by using a local variable to save the sq pointer
before calling __nvmet_req_complete(), thus avoiding dereferencing the
req pointer after that function call.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: zero i_disksize when initializing the bootloader inode
If the boot loader inode has never been used before, the
EXT4_IOC_SWAP_BOOT inode will initialize it, including setting the
i_size to 0. However, if the "never before used" boot loader has a
non-zero i_size, then i_disksize will be non-zero, and the
inconsistency between i_size and i_disksize can trigger a kernel
warning:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 2580 at fs/ext4/file.c:319
CPU: 0 PID: 2580 Comm: bb Not tainted 6.3.0-rc1-00004-g703695902cfa

ksys_write+0x77/0x160
__x64_sys_write+0x22/0x30

Reproducer:
1. create corrupted image and mount it:
mke2fs -t ext4 /tmp/foo.img 200
debugfs -wR "sif <5> size 25700" /tmp/foo.img
mount -t ext4 /tmp/foo.img /mnt
cd /mnt
echo 123 > file
2. Run the reproducer program:
posix_memalign(&buf, 1024, 1024)
fd = open("file", O_RDWR | O_DIRECT);
ioctl(fd, EXT4_IOC_SWAP_BOOT);
write(fd, buf, 1024);
Fix this by setting i_disksize as well as i_size to zero when
initiaizing the boot loader inode.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bonding: restore bond's IFF_SLAVE flag if a non-eth dev enslave fails
syzbot reported a warning[1] where the bond device itself is a slave and
we try to enslave a non-ethernet device as the first slave which fails
but then in the error path when ether_setup() restores the bond device
it also clears all flags. In my previous fix[2] I restored the
IFF_MASTER flag, but I didn't consider the case that the bond device
itself might also be a slave with IFF_SLAVE set, so we need to restore
that flag as well. Use the bond_ether_setup helper which does the right
thing and restores the bond's flags properly.
Steps to reproduce using a nlmon dev:
$ ip l add nlmon0 type nlmon
$ ip l add bond1 type bond
$ ip l add bond2 type bond
$ ip l set bond1 master bond2
$ ip l set dev nlmon0 master bond1
$ ip -d l sh dev bond1
22: bond1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,MASTER> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master bond2 state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
(now bond1's IFF_SLAVE flag is gone and we'll hit a warning[3] if we
try to delete it)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: st-nci: Fix use after free bug in ndlc_remove due to race condition
This bug influences both st_nci_i2c_remove and st_nci_spi_remove.
Take st_nci_i2c_remove as an example.
In st_nci_i2c_probe, it called ndlc_probe and bound &ndlc->sm_work
with llt_ndlc_sm_work.
When it calls ndlc_recv or timeout handler, it will finally call
schedule_work to start the work.
When we call st_nci_i2c_remove to remove the driver, there
may be a sequence as follows:
Fix it by finishing the work before cleanup in ndlc_remove

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: tunnels: annotate lockless accesses to dev->needed_headroom
IP tunnels can apparently update dev->needed_headroom
in their xmit path.
This patch takes care of three tunnels xmit, and also the
core LL_RESERVED_SPACE() and LL_RESERVED_SPACE_EXTRA()
helpers.
More changes might be needed for completeness.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: update s_journal_inum if it changes after journal replay
When mounting a crafted ext4 image, s_journal_inum may change after journal
replay, which is obviously unreasonable because we have successfully loaded
and replayed the journal through the old s_journal_inum. And the new
s_journal_inum bypasses some of the checks in ext4_get_journal(), which
may trigger a null pointer dereference problem. So if s_journal_inum
changes after the journal replay, we ignore the change, and rewrite the
current journal_inum to the superblock.
