Debian: Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: check/clear fast rx for non-4addr sta VLAN changes
When moving a station out of a VLAN and deleting the VLAN afterwards, the
fast_rx entry still holds a pointer to the VLAN's netdev, which can cause
use-after-free bugs. Fix this by immediately calling ieee80211_check_fast_rx
after the VLAN change.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: SVM: Flush pages under kvm->lock to fix UAF in svm_register_enc_region()
Do the cache flush of converted pages in svm_register_enc_region() before
dropping kvm->lock to fix use-after-free issues where region and/or its
array of pages could be freed by a different task, e.g. if userspace has
__unregister_enc_region_locked() already queued up for the region.
Note, the "obvious" alternative of using local variables doesn't fully
resolve the bug, as region->pages is also dynamically allocated. I.e. the
region structure itself would be fine, but region->pages could be freed.
Flushing multiple pages under kvm->lock is unfortunate, but the entire
flow is a rare slow path, and the manual flush is only needed on CPUs that
lack coherency for encrypted memory.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cpumap: Zero-initialise xdp_rxq_info struct before running XDP program
When running an XDP program that is attached to a cpumap entry, we don't
initialise the xdp_rxq_info data structure being used in the xdp_buff
that backs the XDP program invocation. Tobias noticed that this leads to
random values being returned as the xdp_md->rx_queue_index value for XDP
programs running in a cpumap.
This means we're basically returning the contents of the uninitialised
memory, which is bad. Fix this by zero-initialising the rxq data
structure before running the XDP program.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_event: Fix handling of HCI_EV_IO_CAPA_REQUEST
If we received HCI_EV_IO_CAPA_REQUEST while
HCI_OP_READ_REMOTE_EXT_FEATURES is yet to be responded assume the remote
does support SSP since otherwise this event shouldn't be generated.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: fix potential "struct net" leak in inet6_rtm_getaddr()
It seems that if userspace provides a correct IFA_TARGET_NETNSID value
but no IFA_ADDRESS and IFA_LOCAL attributes, inet6_rtm_getaddr()
returns -EINVAL with an elevated "struct net" refcount.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netrom: Fix data-races around sysctl_net_busy_read
We need to protect the reader reading the sysctl value because the
value can be changed concurrently.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
power: supply: bq27xxx-i2c: Do not free non existing IRQ
The bq27xxx i2c-client may not have an IRQ, in which case
client->irq will be 0. bq27xxx_battery_i2c_probe() already has
an if (client->irq) check wrapping the request_threaded_irq().
But bq27xxx_battery_i2c_remove() unconditionally calls
free_irq(client->irq) leading to:
[ 190.310742] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[ 190.310843] Trying to free already-free IRQ 0
[ 190.310861] WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 1304 at kernel/irq/manage.c:1893 free_irq+0x1b8/0x310
Followed by a backtrace when unbinding the driver. Add
an if (client->irq) to bq27xxx_battery_i2c_remove() mirroring
probe() to fix this.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
efi/capsule-loader: fix incorrect allocation size
gcc-14 notices that the allocation with sizeof(void) on 32-bit architectures
is not enough for a 64-bit phys_addr_t:
drivers/firmware/efi/capsule-loader.c: In function 'efi_capsule_open':
drivers/firmware/efi/capsule-loader.c:295:24: error: allocation of insufficient size '4' for type 'phys_addr_t' {aka 'long long unsigned int'} with size '8' [-Werror=alloc-size]
295 | cap_info->phys = kzalloc(sizeof(void *), GFP_KERNEL);
| ^
Use the correct type instead here.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rtnetlink: fix error logic of IFLA_BRIDGE_FLAGS writing back
In the commit d73ef2d69c0d ("rtnetlink: let rtnl_bridge_setlink checks
IFLA_BRIDGE_MODE length"), an adjustment was made to the old loop logic
in the function `rtnl_bridge_setlink` to enable the loop to also check
the length of the IFLA_BRIDGE_MODE attribute. However, this adjustment
removed the `break` statement and led to an error logic of the flags
writing back at the end of this function.
if (have_flags)
memcpy(nla_data(attr), &flags, sizeof(flags));
// attr should point to IFLA_BRIDGE_FLAGS NLA !!!
Before the mentioned commit, the `attr` is granted to be IFLA_BRIDGE_FLAGS.
However, this is not necessarily true fow now as the updated loop will let
the attr point to the last NLA, even an invalid NLA which could cause
overflow writes.
This patch introduces a new variable `br_flag` to save the NLA pointer
that points to IFLA_BRIDGE_FLAGS and uses it to resolve the mentioned
error logic.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: nl80211: reject iftype change with mesh ID change
It's currently possible to change the mesh ID when the
interface isn't yet in mesh mode, at the same time as
changing it into mesh mode. This leads to an overwrite
of data in the wdev->u union for the interface type it
currently has, causing cfg80211_change_iface() to do
wrong things when switching.
We could probably allow setting an interface to mesh
while setting the mesh ID at the same time by doing a
different order of operations here, but realistically
there's no userspace that's going to do this, so just
disallow changes in iftype when setting mesh ID.
