Linux » Linux Kernel : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs,

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: validate mech token in session setup If client send invalid mech token in session setup request, ksmbd validate and make the error if it is invalid.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: fix UAF issue in ksmbd_tcp_new_connection() The race is between the handling of a new TCP connection and its disconnection. It leads to UAF on `struct tcp_transport` in ksmbd_tcp_new_connection() function.

A vulnerability was reported in the Open vSwitch sub-component in the Linux Kernel. The flaw occurs when a recursive operation of code push recursively calls into the code block. The OVS module does not validate the stack depth, pushing too many frames and causing a stack overflow. As a result, this can lead to a crash or other related issues.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: PCI: Avoid potential out-of-bounds read in pci_dev_for_each_resource() Coverity complains that pointer in the pci_dev_for_each_resource() may be wrong, i.e., might be used for the out-of-bounds read. There is no actual issue right now because we have another check afterwards and the out-of-bounds read is not being performed. In any case it's better code with this fixed, hence the proposed change. As Jonas pointed out "It probably makes the code slightly less performant as res will now be checked for being not NULL (which will always be true), but I doubt it will be significant (or in any hot paths)."

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Fix NULL pointer dereference at hibernate During hibernate sequence the source context might not have a clk_mgr. So don't use it to look for DML2 support.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: v4l: async: Fix duplicated list deletion The list deletion call dropped here is already called from the helper function in the line before. Having a second list_del() call results in either a warning (with CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST=y): list_del corruption, c46c8198->next is LIST_POISON1 (00000100) If CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST is disabled the operation results in a kernel error due to NULL pointer dereference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: serial: 8250: omap: Don't skip resource freeing if pm_runtime_resume_and_get() failed Returning an error code from .remove() makes the driver core emit the little helpful error message: remove callback returned a non-zero value. This will be ignored. and then remove the device anyhow. So all resources that were not freed are leaked in this case. Skipping serial8250_unregister_port() has the potential to keep enough of the UART around to trigger a use-after-free. So replace the error return (and with it the little helpful error message) by a more useful error message and continue to cleanup.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: serial: imx: fix tx statemachine deadlock When using the serial port as RS485 port, the tx statemachine is used to control the RTS pin to drive the RS485 transceiver TX_EN pin. When the TTY port is closed in the middle of a transmission (for instance during userland application crash), imx_uart_shutdown disables the interface and disables the Transmission Complete interrupt. afer that, imx_uart_stop_tx bails on an incomplete transmission, to be retriggered by the TC interrupt. This interrupt is disabled and therefore the tx statemachine never transitions out of SEND. The statemachine is in deadlock now, and the TX_EN remains low, making the interface useless. imx_uart_stop_tx now checks for incomplete transmission AND whether TC interrupts are enabled before bailing to be retriggered. This makes sure the state machine handling is reached, and is properly set to WAIT_AFTER_SEND.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu: Don't reserve 0-length IOVA region When the bootloader/firmware doesn't setup the framebuffers, their address and size are 0 in "iommu-addresses" property. If IOVA region is reserved with 0 length, then it ends up corrupting the IOVA rbtree with an entry which has pfn_hi < pfn_lo. If we intend to use display driver in kernel without framebuffer then it's causing the display IOMMU mappings to fail as entire valid IOVA space is reserved when address and length are passed as 0. An ideal solution would be firmware removing the "iommu-addresses" property and corresponding "memory-region" if display is not present. But the kernel should be able to handle this by checking for size of IOVA region and skipping the IOVA reservation if size is 0. Also, add a warning if firmware is requesting 0-length IOVA region reservation.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hisi_acc_vfio_pci: Update migration data pointer correctly on saving/resume When the optional PRE_COPY support was added to speed up the device compatibility check, it failed to update the saving/resuming data pointers based on the fd offset. This results in migration data corruption and when the device gets started on the destination the following error is reported in some cases, [ 478.907684] arm-smmu-v3 arm-smmu-v3.2.auto: event 0x10 received: [ 478.913691] arm-smmu-v3 arm-smmu-v3.2.auto: 0x0000310200000010 [ 478.919603] arm-smmu-v3 arm-smmu-v3.2.auto: 0x000002088000007f [ 478.925515] arm-smmu-v3 arm-smmu-v3.2.auto: 0x0000000000000000 [ 478.931425] arm-smmu-v3 arm-smmu-v3.2.auto: 0x0000000000000000 [ 478.947552] hisi_zip 0000:31:00.0: qm_axi_rresp [error status=0x1] found [ 478.955930] hisi_zip 0000:31:00.0: qm_db_timeout [error status=0x400] found [ 478.955944] hisi_zip 0000:31:00.0: qm sq doorbell timeout in function 2

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: validate session id and tree id in compound request `smb2_get_msg()` in smb2_get_ksmbd_tcon() and smb2_check_user_session() will always return the first request smb2 header in a compound request. if `SMB2_TREE_CONNECT_HE` is the first command in compound request, will return 0, i.e. The tree id check is skipped. This patch use ksmbd_req_buf_next() to get current command in compound.

An out-of-bounds read flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s TeleTYpe subsystem. The issue occurs in how a user triggers a race condition using ioctls TIOCSPTLCK and TIOCGPTPEER and TIOCSTI and TCXONC with leakage of memory in the flush_to_ldisc function. This flaw allows a local user to crash the system or read unauthorized random data from memory.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: prevent memory leak In dcn*_create_resource_pool the allocated memory should be released if construct pool fails.
