net/smc: Fix NULL pointer dereference in smc_pnet_find_ib()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: Fix NULL pointer dereference in smc_pnet_find_ib()
dev_name() was called with dev.parent as argument but without to
NULL-check it before.
Solve this by checking the pointer before the call to dev_name().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: nci: add flush_workqueue to prevent uaf
Our detector found a concurrent use-after-free bug when detaching an
NCI device. The main reason for this bug is the unexpected scheduling
between the used delayed mechanism (timer and workqueue).
The race can be demonstrated below:
Thread-1 Thread-2
| nci_dev_up()
| nci_open_device()
| __nci_request(nci_reset_req)
| nci_send_cmd
cifs: potential buffer overflow in handling symlinks
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cifs: potential buffer overflow in handling symlinks
Smatch printed a warning:
arch/x86/crypto/poly1305_glue.c:198 poly1305_update_arch() error:
__memcpy() 'dctx->buf' too small (16 vs u32max)
It's caused because Smatch marks 'link_len' as untrusted since it comes
from sscanf(). Add a check to ensure that 'link_len' is not larger than
the size of the 'link_str' buffer.
drm/amdkfd: Check for potential null return of kmalloc_array()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdkfd: Check for potential null return of kmalloc_array()
As the kmalloc_array() may return null, the 'event_waiters[i].wait' would lead to null-pointer dereference.
Therefore, it is better to check the return value of kmalloc_array() to avoid this confusion.
Drivers: hv: vmbus: Deactivate sysctl_record_panic_msg by default in isolated guests
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Drivers: hv: vmbus: Deactivate sysctl_record_panic_msg by default in isolated guests
hv_panic_page might contain guest-sensitive information, do not dump it
over to Hyper-V by default in isolated guests.
While at it, update some comments in hyperv_{panic,die}_event().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: tcmu: Fix possible page UAF
tcmu_try_get_data_page() looks up pages under cmdr_lock, but it does not
take refcount properly and just returns page pointer. When
tcmu_try_get_data_page() returns, the returned page may have been freed by
tcmu_blocks_release().
We need to get_page() under cmdr_lock to avoid concurrent
tcmu_blocks_release().

net: usb: aqc111: Fix out-of-bounds accesses in RX fixup
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: usb: aqc111: Fix out-of-bounds accesses in RX fixup
aqc111_rx_fixup() contains several out-of-bounds accesses that can be
triggered by a malicious (or defective) USB device, in particular:
- The metadata array (desc_offset..desc_offset+2*pkt_count) can be out of bounds,
causing OOB reads and (on big-endian systems) OOB endianness flips.
- A packet can overlap the metadata array, causing a later OOB
endianness flip to corrupt data used by a cloned SKB that has already
been handed off into the network stack.
- A packet SKB can be constructed whose tail is fa
memory: renesas-rpc-if: fix platform-device leak in error path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
memory: renesas-rpc-if: fix platform-device leak in error path
Make sure to free the flash platform device in the event that
registration fails during probe.
mm/secretmem: fix panic when growing a memfd_secret
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/secretmem: fix panic when growing a memfd_secret
When one tries to grow an existing memfd_secret with ftruncate, one gets
a panic [1]. For example, doing the following reliably induces the
panic:
fd = memfd_secret();
ftruncate(fd, 10);
ptr = mmap(NULL, 10, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
strcpy(ptr, "123456789");
munmap(ptr, 10);
ftruncate(fd, 20);
The basic reason for this is, when we grow with ftruncate, we call down
into simple_setattr, and then truncate_inode_pages_range, and eventually
we try to zero part of the memory. The
ipv6: fix panic when forwarding a pkt with no in6 dev
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: fix panic when forwarding a pkt with no in6 dev
kongweibin reported a kernel panic in ip6_forward() when input interface
has no in6 dev associated.
The following tc commands were used to reproduce this panic:
tc qdisc del dev vxlan100 root
tc qdisc add dev vxlan100 root netem corrupt 5%
i2c: dev: check return value when calling dev_set_name()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: dev: check return value when calling dev_set_name()
If dev_set_name() fails, the dev_name() is null, check the return
value of dev_set_name() to avoid the null-ptr-deref.
dm integrity: fix memory corruption when tag_size is less than digest size
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm integrity: fix memory corruption when tag_size is less than digest size
It is possible to set up dm-integrity in such a way that the
"tag_size" parameter is less than the actual digest size. In this
situation, a part of the digest beyond tag_size is ignored.
In this case, dm-integrity would write beyond the end of the
ic->recalc_tags array and corrupt memory. The corruption happened in
integrity_recalc->integrity_sector_checksum->crypto_shash_final.
Fix this corruption by increasing the tags array so that it has enough
padding at the end to accomodate the loop in integ
drm/virtio: Ensure that objs is not NULL in virtio_gpu_array_put_free()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/virtio: Ensure that objs is not NULL in virtio_gpu_array_put_free()
If virtio_gpu_object_shmem_init() fails (e.g. due to fault injection, as it
happened in the bug report by syzbot), virtio_gpu_array_put_free() could be
called with objs equal to NULL.
Ensure that objs is not NULL in virtio_gpu_array_put_free(), or otherwise
return from the function.
jffs2: fix use-after-free in jffs2_clear_xattr_subsystem
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
jffs2: fix use-after-free in jffs2_clear_xattr_subsystem
When we mount a jffs2 image, assume that the first few blocks of
the image are normal and contain at least one xattr-related inode,
but the next block is abnormal. As a result, an error is returned
in jffs2_scan_eraseblock(). jffs2_clear_xattr_subsystem() is then
called in jffs2_build_filesystem() and then again in
jffs2_do_fill_super().
Finally we can observe the following report:
==================================================================
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in jffs2_clear_xattr_subsystem+0x95/0x6ac

media: davinci: vpif: fix use-after-free on driver unbind
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: davinci: vpif: fix use-after-free on driver unbind
The driver allocates and registers two platform device structures during
probe, but the devices were never deregistered on driver unbind.
This results in a use-after-free on driver unbind as the device
structures were allocated using devres and would be freed by driver
core when remove() returns.
Fix this by adding the missing deregistration calls to the remove()
callback and failing probe on registration errors.
Note that the platform device structures must be freed using a proper
release callback to avoid leakin

soc: qcom: rpmpd: Check for null return of devm_kcalloc
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
soc: qcom: rpmpd: Check for null return of devm_kcalloc
Because of the possible failure of the allocation, data->domains might
be NULL pointer and will cause the dereference of the NULL pointer
later.
Therefore, it might be better to check it and directly return -ENOMEM
without releasing data manually if fails, because the comment of the
devm_kmalloc() says "Memory allocated with this function is
automatically freed on driver detach.".
ASoC: soc-compress: prevent the potentially use of null pointer
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: soc-compress: prevent the potentially use of null pointer
There is one call trace that snd_soc_register_card()
->snd_soc_bind_card()->soc_init_pcm_runtime()
->snd_soc_dai_compress_new()->snd_soc_new_compress().
In the trace the 'codec_dai' transfers from card->dai_link,
and we can see from the snd_soc_add_pcm_runtime() in
snd_soc_bind_card() that, if value of card->dai_link->num_codecs
is 0, then 'codec_dai' could be null pointer caused
by index out of bound in 'asoc_rtd_to_codec(rtd, 0)'.
And snd_soc_register_card() is called by various platforms.
Therefore, it is be
