In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kernel: be more careful about dup_mmap() failures and uprobe registering
If a memory allocation fails during dup_mmap(), the maple tree can be left
in an unsafe state for other iterators besides the exit path. All the
locks are dropped before the exit_mmap() call (in mm/mmap.c), but the
incomplete mm_struct can be reached through (at least) the rmap finding
the vmas which have a pointer back to the mm_struct.
Up to this point, there have been no issues with being able to find an
mm_struct that was only partially initialised. Syzbot was able to make
the incomplete mm_struct fail with recent forking changes, so it has been
proven unsafe to use the mm_struct that hasn't been initialised, as
referenced in the link below.
Although 8ac662f5da19f ("fork: avoid inappropriate uprobe access to
invalid mm") fixed the uprobe access, it does not completely remove the
race.
This patch sets the MMF_OOM_SKIP to avoid the iteration of the vmas on the
oom side (even though this is extremely unlikely to be selected as an oom
victim in the race window), and sets MMF_UNSTABLE to avoid other potential
users from using a partially initialised mm_struct.
When registering vmas for uprobe, skip the vmas in an mm that is marked
unstable. Modifying a vma in an unstable mm may cause issues if the mm
isn't fully initialised.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring: prevent reg-wait speculations
With *ENTER_EXT_ARG_REG instead of passing a user pointer with arguments
for the waiting loop the user can specify an offset into a pre-mapped
region of memory, in which case the
[offset, offset + sizeof(io_uring_reg_wait)) will be intepreted as the
argument.
As we address a kernel array using a user given index, it'd be a subject
to speculation type of exploits. Use array_index_nospec() to prevent
that. Make sure to pass not the full region size but truncate by the
maximum offset allowed considering the structure size.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/pseries/iommu: IOMMU incorrectly marks MMIO range in DDW
Power Hypervisor can possibily allocate MMIO window intersecting with
Dynamic DMA Window (DDW) range, which is over 32-bit addressing.
These MMIO pages needs to be marked as reserved so that IOMMU doesn't map
DMA buffers in this range.
The current code is not marking these pages correctly which is resulting
in LPAR to OOPS while booting. The stack is at below

There are 2 issues in the code
1. The index is "int" while the address is "unsigned long". This results in
negative value when setting the bitmap.
2. The DMA offset is page shifted but the MMIO range is used as-is (64-bit
address). MMIO address needs to be page shifted as well.

The crash can be also be reproduced with the following (with a tc
recompiled to allow for sfq limits of 1):
tc qdisc add dev dummy0 handle 1: root tbf rate 1Kbit burst 100b lat 1s
../iproute2-6.9.0/tc/tc qdisc add dev dummy0 handle 2: parent 1:10 sfq limit 1
ifconfig dummy0 up
ping -I dummy0 -f -c2 -W0.1 8.8.8.8
sleep 1
Scenario that triggers the crash:
* the first packet is sent and queued in TBF and SFQ; qdisc qlen is 1
* TBF dequeues: it peeks from SFQ which moves the packet to the
gso_skb list and keeps qdisc qlen set to 1. TBF is out of tokens so
it schedules itself for later.
* the second packet is sent and TBF tries to queues it to SFQ. qdisc
qlen is now 2 and because the SFQ limit is 1 the packet is dropped
by SFQ. At this point qlen is 1, and all of the SFQ slots are empty,
however q->tail is not NULL.
At this point, assuming no more packets are queued, when sch_dequeue
runs again it will decrement the qlen for the current empty slot
causing an underflow and the subsequent out of bounds access.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath12k: fix read pointer after free in ath12k_mac_assign_vif_to_vdev()
In ath12k_mac_assign_vif_to_vdev(), if arvif is created on a different
radio, it gets deleted from that radio through a call to
ath12k_mac_unassign_link_vif(). This action frees the arvif pointer.
Subsequently, there is a check involving arvif, which will result in a
read-after-free scenario.
Fix this by moving this check after arvif is again assigned via call to
ath12k_mac_assign_link_vif().

The issue can easily be reproduced, for example by not wiring correctly
a wilc device through SPI (and so, make it unresponsive to early SPI
commands). It is due to a recent change decoupling wiphy allocation from
wiphy registration, however wilc_netdev_cleanup has not been updated
accordingly, letting it possibly call wiphy unregister on a wiphy which
has never been registered.
Fix this crash by moving wiphy_unregister/wiphy_free out of
wilc_netdev_cleanup, and by adjusting error paths in both drivers

And once one is found, should have aborted the list_for_each_entry. But,

HID: core: Fix assumption that Resolution Multipliers must be in Logical Collections
A report in 2019 by the syzbot fuzzer was found to be connected to two
errors in the HID core associated with Resolution Multipliers. One of
the errors was fixed by commit ea427a222d8b ("HID: core: Fix deadloop
in hid_apply_multiplier."), but the other has not been fixed.
This error arises because hid_apply_multipler() assumes that every
Resolution Multiplier control is contained in a Logical Collection,
i.e., there's no way the routine can ever set multiplier_collection to
NULL. This is in spite of the fact that the function starts with a
big comment saying:
* "The Resolution Multiplier control must be contained in the same
* Logical Collection as the control(s) to which it is to be applied.
...
* If no Logical Collection is
* defined, the Resolution Multiplier is associated with all
* controls in the report."
* HID Usage Table, v1.12, Section 4.3.1, p30
*
* Thus, search from the current collection upwards until we find a
* logical collection...
The comment and the code overlook the possibility that none of the
collections found may be a Logical Collection.
The fix is to set the multiplier_collection pointer to NULL if the
collection found isn't a Logical Collection.

mailbox: th1520: Fix memory corruption due to incorrect array size
The functions th1520_mbox_suspend_noirq and th1520_mbox_resume_noirq are
intended to save and restore the interrupt mask registers in the MBOX
ICU0. However, the array used to store these registers was incorrectly
sized, leading to memory corruption when accessing all four registers.
This commit corrects the array size to accommodate all four interrupt
mask registers, preventing memory corruption during suspend and resume
operations.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: state: fix out-of-bounds read during lookup
lookup and resize can run in parallel.
The xfrm_state_hash_generation seqlock ensures a retry, but the hash
functions can observe a hmask value that is too large for the new hlist
array.
rehash does:
rcu_assign_pointer(net->xfrm.state_bydst, ndst) [..]
net->xfrm.state_hmask = nhashmask;
While state lookup does:
h = xfrm_dst_hash(net, daddr, saddr, tmpl->reqid, encap_family);
hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(x, net->xfrm.state_bydst + h, bydst) {
This is only safe in case the update to state_bydst is larger than
net->xfrm.xfrm_state_hmask (or if the lookup function gets
serialized via state spinlock again).
Fix this by prefetching state_hmask and the associated pointers.
The xfrm_state_hash_generation seqlock retry will ensure that the pointer
and the hmask will be consistent.
The existing helpers, like xfrm_dst_hash(), are now unsafe for RCU side,
add lockdep assertions to document that they are only safe for insert
side.
xfrm_state_lookup_byaddr() uses the spinlock rather than RCU.
AFAICS this is an oversight from back when state lookup was converted to
RCU, this lock should be replaced with RCU in a future patch.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: xhci: Fix NULL pointer dereference on certain command aborts
If a command is queued to the final usable TRB of a ring segment, the
enqueue pointer is advanced to the subsequent link TRB and no further.
If the command is later aborted, when the abort completion is handled
the dequeue pointer is advanced to the first TRB of the next segment.
If no further commands are queued, xhci_handle_stopped_cmd_ring() sees
the ring pointers unequal and assumes that there is a pending command,
so it calls xhci_mod_cmd_timer() which crashes if cur_cmd was NULL.
Don't attempt timer setup if cur_cmd is NULL. The subsequent doorbell
ring likely is unnecessary too, but it's harmless. Leave it alone.
This is probably Bug 219532, but no confirmation has been received.
The issue has been independently reproduced and confirmed fixed using
a USB MCU programmed to NAK the Status stage of SET_ADDRESS forever.
Everything continued working normally after several prevented crashes.

kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:62!
Kernel panic - not syncing: Oops - BUG: Fatal exception
This happens because pps_device_destruct() frees the pps_device with the
embedded cdev immediately after calling cdev_del(), but, as the comment
above cdev_del() notes, fops for previously opened cdevs are still
callable even after cdev_del() returns. I think this bug has always
been there: I can't explain why it suddenly started happening every time
I reboot this particular board.
In commit d953e0e837e6 ("pps: Fix a use-after free bug when
unregistering a source."), George Spelvin suggested removing the
embedded cdev. That seems like the simplest way to fix this, so I've
implemented his suggestion, using __register_chrdev() with pps_idr
becoming the source of truth for which minor corresponds to which
device.
But now that pps_idr defines userspace visibility instead of cdev_add(),
we need to be sure the pps->dev refcount can't reach zero while
userspace can still find it again. So, the idr_remove() call moves to
pps_unregister_cdev(), and pps_idr now holds a reference to pps->dev.

If jpeg->pd_dev[i] is an error pointer, then passing it to
pm_runtime_suspended() will lead to an Oops. The other conditions
check for both error pointers and NULL, but it would be more clear to
use the IS_ERR_OR_NULL() check for that.

[CAUSE]
That failure is mostly from cow_file_range(), where we can hit -ENOSPC.
Although the -ENOSPC is already a bug related to our space reservation
code, let's just focus on the error handling.
For example, we have the following dirty range [0, 64K) of an inode,
with 4K sector size and 4K page size:
0 16K 32K 48K 64K
|///////////////////////////////////////|
|#######################################|
Where |///| means page are still dirty, and |###| means the extent io
tree has EXTENT_DELALLOC flag.
- Enter extent_writepage() for page 0
- Enter btrfs_run_delalloc_range() for range [0, 64K)
- Enter cow_file_range() for range [0, 64K)
- Function btrfs_reserve_extent() only reserved one 16K extent
So we created extent map and ordered extent for range [0, 16K)
0 16K 32K 48K 64K
|////////|//////////////////////////////|
|<- OE ->|##############################|
And range [0, 16K) has its delalloc flag cleared.
But since we haven't yet submit any bio, involved 4 pages are still
dirty.
- Function btrfs_reserve_extent() returns with -ENOSPC
Now we have to run error cleanup, which will clear all
EXTENT_DELALLOC* flags and clear the dirty flags for the remaining
ranges:
0 16K 32K 48K 64K
|////////| |
| | |
Note that range [0, 16K) still has its pages dirty.
- Some time later, writeback is triggered again for the range [0, 16K)
since the page range still has dirty flags.
- btrfs_run_delalloc_range() will do nothing because there is no
EXTENT_DELALLOC flag.
- extent_writepage_io() finds page 0 has no ordered flag
Which falls into the COW fixup path, triggering the BUG_ON().
Unfortunately this error handling bug dates back to the introduction of
btrfs. Thankfully with the abuse of COW fixup, at least it won't crash
the kernel.
[FIX]
Instead of immediately unlocking the extent and folios, we keep the extent
and folios locked until either erroring out or the whole delalloc range
finished.
When the whole delalloc range finished without error, we just unlock the
whole range with PAGE_SET_ORDERED (and PAGE_UNLOCK for !keep_locked
cases)

---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---
[CAUSE]
The first two lines of extra debug messages show the problem is caused
by the error handling of run_delalloc_nocow().
E.g. we have the following dirtied range (4K blocksize 4K page size):
0 16K 32K
|//////////////////////////////////////|
| Pre-allocated |
And the range [0, 16K) has a preallocated extent.
- Enter run_delalloc_nocow() for range [0, 16K)
Which found range [0, 16K) is preallocated, can do the proper NOCOW
write.
- Enter fallback_to_fow() for range [16K, 32K)
Since the range [16K, 32K) is not backed by preallocated extent, we
have to go COW.
- cow_file_range() failed for range [16K, 32K)
So cow_file_range() will do the clean up by clearing folio dirty,
unlock the folios.
Now the folios in range [16K, 32K) is unlocked.
- Enter extent_clear_unlock_delalloc() from run_delalloc_nocow()
Which is called with PAGE_START_WRITEBACK to start page writeback.
But folios can only be marked writeback when it's properly locked,
thus this triggered the VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO().
Furthermore there is another hidden but common bug that
run_delalloc_nocow() is not clearing the folio dirty flags in its error
handling path.
This is the common bug shared between run_delalloc_nocow() and
cow_file_range().
[FIX]
- Clear folio dirty for range [@start, @cur_offset)
Introduce a helper, cleanup_dirty_folios(), which
will find and lock the folio in the range, clear the dirty flag and
start/end the writeback, with the extra handling for the
@locked_folio.
- Introduce a helper to clear folio dirty, start and end writeback
- Introduce a helper to record the last failed COW range end
This is to trace which range we should skip, to avoid double
unlocking.
- Skip the failed COW range for the e

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
udp: Deal with race between UDP socket address change and rehash
If a UDP socket changes its local address while it's receiving
datagrams, as a result of connect(), there is a period during which
a lookup operation might fail to find it, after the address is changed
but before the secondary hash (port and address) and the four-tuple
hash (local and remote ports and addresses) are updated.
Secondary hash chains were introduced by commit 30fff9231fad ("udp:
bind() optimisation") and, as a result, a rehash operation became
needed to make a bound socket reachable again after a connect().
This operation was introduced by commit 719f835853a9 ("udp: add
rehash on connect()") which isn't however a complete fix: the
socket will be found once the rehashing completes, but not while
it's pending.
This is noticeable with a socat(1) server in UDP4-LISTEN mode, and a
client sending datagrams to it. After the server receives the first
datagram (cf. _xioopen_ipdgram_listen()), it issues a connect() to
the address of the sender, in order to set up a directed flow.
Now, if the client, running on a different CPU thread, happens to
send a (subsequent) datagram while the server's socket changes its
address, but is not rehashed yet, this will result in a failed
lookup and a port unreachable error delivered to the client, as
apparent from the following reproducer:
LEN=$(($(cat /proc/sys/net/core/wmem_default) / 4))
dd if=/dev/urandom bs=1 count=${LEN} of=tmp.in
while :; do
taskset -c 1 socat UDP4-LISTEN:1337,null-eof OPEN:tmp.out,create,trunc &
sleep 0.1 || sleep 1
taskset -c 2 socat OPEN:tmp.in UDP4:localhost:1337,shut-null
wait
done
where the client will eventually get ECONNREFUSED on a write()
(typically the second or third one of a given iteration):
2024/11/13 21:28:23 socat[46901] E write(6, 0x556db2e3c000, 8192): Connection refused
This issue was first observed as a seldom failure in Podman's tests
checking UDP functionality while using pasta(1) to connect the
container's network namespace, which leads us to a reproducer with
the lookup error resulting in an ICMP packet on a tap device:
LOCAL_ADDR="$(ip -j -4 addr show|jq -rM '.[] | .addr_info[0] | select(.scope == "global").local')"
while :; do
./pasta --config-net -p pasta.pcap -u 1337 socat UDP4-LISTEN:1337,null-eof OPEN:tmp.out,create,trunc &
sleep 0.2 || sleep 1
socat OPEN:tmp.in UDP4:${LOCAL_ADDR}:1337,shut-null
wait
cmp tmp.in tmp.out
done
Once this fails:
tmp.in tmp.out differ: char 8193, line 29
we can finally have a look at what's going on:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rdma/cxgb4: Prevent potential integer overflow on 32bit
The "gl->tot_len" variable is controlled by the user. It comes from
process_responses(). On 32bit systems, the "gl->tot_len + sizeof(struct
cpl_pass_accept_req) + sizeof(struct rss_header)" addition could have an
integer wrapping bug. Use size_add() to prevent this.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rtc: tps6594: Fix integer overflow on 32bit systems
The problem is this multiply in tps6594_rtc_set_offset()
tmp = offset * TICKS_PER_HOUR;
The "tmp" variable is an s64 but "offset" is a long in the
(-277774)-277774 range. On 32bit systems a long can hold numbers up to
approximately two billion. The number of TICKS_PER_HOUR is really large,
(32768 * 3600) or roughly a hundred million. When you start multiplying
by a hundred million it doesn't take long to overflow the two billion
mark.
Probably the safest way to fix this is to change the type of
TICKS_PER_HOUR to long long because it's such a large number.
A flaw was found in the quarkus-resteasy extension, which causes memory leaks when client requests with low timeouts are made. If a client request times out, a buffer is not released correctly, leading to increased memory usage and eventual application crash due to OutOfMemoryError.
picklescan before 0.0.21 does not treat 'pip' as an unsafe global. An attacker could craft a malicious model that uses Pickle to pull in a malicious PyPI package (hosted, for example, on pypi.org or GitHub) via `pip.main()`. Because pip is not a restricted global, the model, when scanned with picklescan, would pass security checks and appear to be safe, when it could instead prove to be problematic.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

was done to allow creating psocks for non-inet sockets.
Unfortunately the destruction path for psock includes the ULP
unwind, so we need to fail the sk_psock_init() itself.
Otherwise if ULP is already present we'll notice that later,
and call tcp_update_ulp() with the sk_proto of the ULP
itself, which will most likely result in the ULP looping
its callbacks.
This advisory addresses an authorization vulnerability in Mautic's HTTP Basic Authentication implementation. This flaw could allow unauthorized access to sensitive report data.
* Improper Authorization: An authorization flaw exists in Mautic's API Authorization implementation. Any authenticated user, regardless of assigned roles or permissions, can access all reports and their associated data via the API. This bypasses the intended access controls governed by the "Reporting Permissions > View Own" and "Reporting Permissions > View Others" permissions, which should restrict access to non-System Reports.
This advisory addresses two critical security vulnerabilities present in Mautic versions before 5.2.3. These vulnerabilities could be exploited by authenticated users.
* Remote Code Execution (RCE) via Asset Upload: A Remote Code Execution vulnerability has been identified in the asset upload functionality. Insufficient enforcement of allowed file extensions allows an attacker to bypass restrictions and upload executable files, such as PHP scripts.
* Path Traversal File Deletion: A Path Traversal vulnerability exists in the upload validation process. Due to improper handling of path components, an authenticated user can manipulate the file deletion process to delete arbitrary files on the host system.
The CalendApp WordPress plugin through 1.1 does not sanitise and escape a parameter before outputting it back in the page, leading to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting which could be used against high privilege users such as admin.
This advisory addresses a file placement vulnerability that could allow assets to be uploaded to unintended directories on the server.
* Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory: A vulnerability exists in the asset upload functionality that allows users to upload files to directories outside of the intended temporary directory.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ata: libata-core: fix NULL pointer deref in ata_host_alloc_pinfo()
In an unlikely (and probably wrong?) case that the 'ppi' parameter of
ata_host_alloc_pinfo() points to an array starting with a NULL pointer,
there's going to be a kernel oops as the 'pi' local variable won't get
reassigned from the initial value of NULL. Initialize 'pi' instead to
'&ata_dummy_port_info' to fix the possible kernel oops for good...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: nfcmrvl: Fix memory leak in nfcmrvl_play_deferred
Similar to the handling of play_deferred in commit 19cfe912c37b
("Bluetooth: btusb: Fix memory leak in play_deferred"), we thought
a patch might be needed here as well.
Currently usb_submit_urb is called directly to submit deferred tx
urbs after unanchor them.
So the usb_giveback_urb_bh would failed to unref it in usb_unanchor_urb
and cause memory leak.
Put those urbs in tx_anchor to avoid the leak, and also fix the error
handling.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Changes since v1:
-Change the variable [length] type to unsigned, as Eric Dumazet suggested.
Changes since v2:
-Don't change exthdrlen type in ip6_make_skb, as Paolo Abeni suggested.
Changes since v3:
-Don't change ulen type in udpv6_sendmsg and l2tp_ip6_sendmsg, as
Jakub Kicinski suggested.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: Fix signed integer overflow in l2tp_ip6_sendmsg
When len >= INT_MAX - transhdrlen, ulen = len + transhdrlen will be
overflow. To fix, we can follow what udpv6 does and subtract the
transhdrlen from the max.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clocksource: hyper-v: unexport __init-annotated hv_init_clocksource()
EXPORT_SYMBOL and __init is a bad combination because the .init.text
section is freed up after the initialization. Hence, modules cannot
use symbols annotated __init. The access to a freed symbol may end up
with kernel panic.
modpost used to detect it, but it has been broken for a decade.
Recently, I fixed modpost so it started to warn it again, then this
showed up in linux-next builds.
There are two ways to fix it:
- Remove __init
- Remove EXPORT_SYMBOL
I chose the latter for this case because the only in-tree call-site,
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mshyperv.c is never compiled as modular.
(CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST is boolean)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i40e: Fix call trace in setup_tx_descriptors
After PF reset and ethtool -t there was call trace in dmesg
sometimes leading to panic. When there was some time, around 5
seconds, between reset and test there were no errors.
Problem was that pf reset calls i40e_vsi_close in prep_for_reset
and ethtool -t calls i40e_vsi_close in diag_test. If there was not
enough time between those commands the second i40e_vsi_close starts
before previous i40e_vsi_close was done which leads to crash.
Add check to diag_test if pf is in reset and don't start offline
tests if it is true.
Add netif_info("testing failed") into unhappy path of i40e_diag_test()
