Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 2.6.31.4 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
lib/generic-radix-tree.c: Don't overflow in peek()
When we started spreading new inode numbers throughout most of the 64
bit inode space, that triggered some corner case bugs, in particular
some integer overflows related to the radix tree code. Oops.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vdpa: ifcvf: Do proper cleanup if IFCVF init fails
ifcvf_mgmt_dev leaks memory if it is not freed before
returning. Call is made to correct return statement
so memory does not leak. ifcvf_init_hw does not take
care of this so it is needed to do it here.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/radeon: fix a possible null pointer dereference
In radeon_fp_native_mode(), the return value of drm_mode_duplicate()
is assigned to mode, which will lead to a NULL pointer dereference
on failure of drm_mode_duplicate(). Add a check to avoid npd.
The failure status of drm_cvt_mode() on the other path is checked too.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix underflow in second superblock position calculations
Macro NILFS_SB2_OFFSET_BYTES, which computes the position of the second
superblock, underflows when the argument device size is less than 4096
bytes. Therefore, when using this macro, it is necessary to check in
advance that the device size is not less than a lower limit, or at least
that underflow does not occur.
The current nilfs2 implementation lacks this check, causing out-of-bound
block access when mounting devices smaller than 4096 bytes:
I/O error, dev loop0, sector 36028797018963960 op 0x0:(READ) flags 0x0
phys_seg 1 prio class 2
NILFS (loop0): unable to read secondary superblock (blocksize = 1024)
In addition, when trying to resize the filesystem to a size below 4096
bytes, this underflow occurs in nilfs_resize_fs(), passing a huge number
of segments to nilfs_sufile_resize(), corrupting parameters such as the
number of segments in superblocks. This causes excessive loop iterations
in nilfs_sufile_resize() during a subsequent resize ioctl, causing
semaphore ns_segctor_sem to block for a long time and hang the writer
thread:

This fixes these issues by inserting appropriate minimum device size
checks or anti-underflow checks, depending on where the macro is used.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
phy: mdio: fix memory leak
Syzbot reported memory leak in MDIO bus interface, the problem was in
wrong state logic.
MDIOBUS_ALLOCATED indicates 2 states:
1. Bus is only allocated
2. Bus allocated and __mdiobus_register() fails, but
device_register() was called
In case of device_register() has been called we should call put_device()
to correctly free the memory allocated for this device, but mdiobus_free()
calls just kfree(dev) in case of MDIOBUS_ALLOCATED state
To avoid this behaviour we need to set bus->state to MDIOBUS_UNREGISTERED
_before_ calling device_register(), because put_device() should be
called even in case of device_register() failure.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net_sched: fix NULL deref in fifo_set_limit()
syzbot reported another NULL deref in fifo_set_limit() [1]
I could repro the issue with :
unshare -n
tc qd add dev lo root handle 1:0 tbf limit 200000 burst 70000 rate 100Mbit
tc qd replace dev lo parent 1:0 pfifo_fast
tc qd change dev lo root handle 1:0 tbf limit 300000 burst 70000 rate 100Mbit
pfifo_fast does not have a change() operation.
Make fifo_set_limit() more robust about this.

KVM: x86: Handle SRCU initialization failure during page track init
Check the return of init_srcu_struct(), which can fail due to OOM, when
initializing the page track mechanism. Lack of checking leads to a NULL
pointer deref found by a modified syzkaller.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: betop: fix slab-out-of-bounds Write in betop_probe
Syzbot reported slab-out-of-bounds Write bug in hid-betopff driver.
The problem is the driver assumes the device must have an input report but
some malicious devices violate this assumption.
So this patch checks hid_device's input is non empty before it's been used.
