Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: caam - Fix the pointer passed to caam_qi_shutdown()
The type of the last parameter given to devm_add_action_or_reset() is
"struct caam_drv_private *", but in caam_qi_shutdown(), it is casted to
"struct device *".
Pass the correct parameter to devm_add_action_or_reset() so that the
resources are released as expected.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: Initialize cfid->tcon before performing network ops
Avoid leaking a tcon ref when a lease break races with opening the
cached directory. Processing the leak break might take a reference to
the tcon in cached_dir_lease_break() and then fail to release the ref in
cached_dir_offload_close, since cfid->tcon is still NULL.

net/9p/usbg: fix handling of the failed kzalloc() memory allocation
On the linux-next, next-20241108 vanilla kernel, the coccinelle tool gave the
following error report:
./net/9p/trans_usbg.c:912:5-11: ERROR: allocation function on line 911 returns
NULL not ERR_PTR on failure
kzalloc() failure is fixed to handle the NULL return case on the memory exhaustion.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rtc: check if __rtc_read_time was successful in rtc_timer_do_work()
If the __rtc_read_time call fails,, the struct rtc_time tm; may contain
uninitialized data, or an illegal date/time read from the RTC hardware.
When calling rtc_tm_to_ktime later, the result may be a very large value
(possibly KTIME_MAX). If there are periodic timers in rtc->timerqueue,
they will continually expire, may causing kernel softlockup.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfs/localio: must clear res.replen in nfs_local_read_done
Otherwise memory corruption can occur due to NFSv3 LOCALIO reads
leaving garbage in res.replen:
- nfs3_read_done() copies that into server->read_hdrsize; from there
nfs3_proc_read_setup() copies it to args.replen in new requests.
- nfs3_xdr_enc_read3args() passes that to rpc_prepare_reply_pages()
which includes it in hdrsize for xdr_init_pages, so that rq_rcv_buf
contains a ridiculous len.
- This is copied to rq_private_buf and xs_read_stream_request()
eventually passes the kvec to sock_recvmsg() which receives incoming
data into entirely the wrong place.
This is easily reproduced with NFSv3 LOCALIO that is servicing reads
when it is made to pivot back to using normal RPC. This switch back
to using normal NFSv3 with RPC can occur for a few reasons but this
issue was exposed with a test that stops and then restarts the NFSv3
server while LOCALIO is performing heavy read IO.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vfio/mlx5: Fix an unwind issue in mlx5vf_add_migration_pages()
Fix an unwind issue in mlx5vf_add_migration_pages().
If a set of pages is allocated but fails to be added to the SG table,
they need to be freed to prevent a memory leak.
Any pages successfully added to the SG table will be freed as part of
mlx5vf_free_data_buffer().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfs_common: must not hold RCU while calling nfsd_file_put_local
Move holding the RCU from nfs_to_nfsd_file_put_local to
nfs_to_nfsd_net_put. It is the call to nfs_to->nfsd_serv_put that
requires the RCU anyway (the puts for nfsd_file and netns were
combined to avoid an extra indirect reference but that
micro-optimization isn't possible now).
This fixes xfstests generic/013 and it triggering:
"Voluntary context switch within RCU read-side critical section!"

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI: Fix reset_method_store() memory leak
In reset_method_store(), a string is allocated via kstrndup() and assigned
to the local "options". options is then used in with strsep() to find
spaces:
while ((name = strsep(&options, " ")) != NULL) {
If there are no remaining spaces, then options is set to NULL by strsep(),
so the subsequent kfree(options) doesn't free the memory allocated via
kstrndup().
Fix by using a separate tmp_options to iterate with strsep() so options is
preserved.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, sockmap: Several fixes to bpf_msg_pop_data
Several fixes to bpf_msg_pop_data,
1. In sk_msg_shift_left, we should put_page
2. if (len == 0), return early is better
3. pop the entire sk_msg (last == msg->sg.size) should be supported
4. Fix for the value of variable "a"
5. In sk_msg_shift_left, after shifting, i has already pointed to the next
element. Addtional sk_msg_iter_var_next may result in BUG.
