In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
binder: fix UAF caused by offsets overwrite
Binder objects are processed and copied individually into the target
buffer during transactions. Any raw data in-between these objects is
copied as well. However, this raw data copy lacks an out-of-bounds
check. If the raw data exceeds the data section size then the copy
overwrites the offsets section. This eventually triggers an error that
attempts to unwind the processed objects. However, at this point the
offsets used to index these objects are now corrupted.
Unwinding with corrupted offsets can result in decrements of arbitra
uio_hv_generic: Fix kernel NULL pointer dereference in hv_uio_rescind
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
uio_hv_generic: Fix kernel NULL pointer dereference in hv_uio_rescind
For primary VM Bus channels, primary_channel pointer is always NULL. This
pointer is valid only for the secondary channels. Also, rescind callback
is meant for primary channels only.
Fix NULL pointer dereference by retrieving the device_obj from the parent
for the primary channel.
VMCI: Fix use-after-free when removing resource in vmci_resource_remove()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
VMCI: Fix use-after-free when removing resource in vmci_resource_remove()
When removing a resource from vmci_resource_table in
vmci_resource_remove(), the search is performed using the resource
handle by comparing context and resource fields.
It is possible though to create two resources with different types
but same handle (same context and resource fields).
When trying to remove one of the resources, vmci_resource_remove()
may not remove the intended one, but the object will still be freed
as in the case of the datagram type in vmci_datagram_destroy_handle().

nvmet-tcp: fix kernel crash if commands allocation fails
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvmet-tcp: fix kernel crash if commands allocation fails
If the commands allocation fails in nvmet_tcp_alloc_cmds()
the kernel crashes in nvmet_tcp_release_queue_work() because of
a NULL pointer dereference.
nvmet: failed to install queue 0 cntlid 1 ret 6
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at
virtual address 0000000000000008
Fix the bug by setting queue->nr_cmds to zero in case
nvmet_tcp_alloc_cmd() fails.
drm/amd/display: Assign linear_pitch_alignment even for VM
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Assign linear_pitch_alignment even for VM
[Description]
Assign linear_pitch_alignment so we don't cause a divide by 0
error in VM environments
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/pm: fix the Out-of-bounds read warning
using index i - 1U may beyond element index
for mc_data[] when i = 0.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: Fix out-of-bounds write warning
Check the ring type value to fix the out-of-bounds
write warning
drm/amdgpu: Fix out-of-bounds read of df_v1_7_channel_number
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: Fix out-of-bounds read of df_v1_7_channel_number
Check the fb_channel_number range to avoid the array out-of-bounds
read error
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: fix ucode out-of-bounds read warning
Clear warning that read ucode[] may out-of-bounds.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: fix mc_data out-of-bounds read warning
Clear warning that read mc_data[i-1] may out-of-bounds.
usb: typec: ucsi: Fix null pointer dereference in trace
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: typec: ucsi: Fix null pointer dereference in trace
ucsi_register_altmode checks IS_ERR for the alt pointer and treats
NULL as valid. When CONFIG_TYPEC_DP_ALTMODE is not enabled,
ucsi_register_displayport returns NULL which causes a NULL pointer
dereference in trace. Rather than return NULL, call
typec_port_register_altmode to register DisplayPort alternate mode
as a non-controllable mode when CONFIG_TYPEC_DP_ALTMODE is not enabled.
drm/amd/display: Skip wbscl_set_scaler_filter if filter is null
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Skip wbscl_set_scaler_filter if filter is null
Callers can pass null in filter (i.e. from returned from the function
wbscl_get_filter_coeffs_16p) and a null check is added to ensure that is
not the case.
This fixes 4 NULL_RETURNS issues reported by Coverity.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf/aux: Fix AUX buffer serialization
Ole reported that event->mmap_mutex is strictly insufficient to
serialize the AUX buffer, add a per RB mutex to fully serialize it.
Note that in the lock order comment the perf_event::mmap_mutex order
was already wrong, that is, it nesting under mmap_lock is not new with
this patch.
KVM: arm64: Make ICC_*SGI*_EL1 undef in the absence of a vGICv3
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: Make ICC_*SGI*_EL1 undef in the absence of a vGICv3
On a system with a GICv3, if a guest hasn't been configured with
GICv3 and that the host is not capable of GICv2 emulation,
a write to any of the ICC_*SGI*_EL1 registers is trapped to EL2.
We therefore try to emulate the SGI access, only to hit a NULL
pointer as no private interrupt is allocated (no GIC, remember?).
The obvious fix is to give the guest what it deserves, in the
shape of a UNDEF exception.
thunderbolt: Mark XDomain as unplugged when router is removed
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
thunderbolt: Mark XDomain as unplugged when router is removed
I noticed that when we do discrete host router NVM upgrade and it gets
hot-removed from the PCIe side as a result of NVM firmware authentication,
if there is another host connected with enabled paths we hang in tearing
them down. This is due to fact that the Thunderbolt networking driver
also tries to cleanup the paths and ends up blocking in
tb_disconnect_xdomain_paths() waiting for the domain lock.
However, at this point we already cleaned the paths in tb_stop() so
there is really no need for tb_disconnect_xdo
selinux,smack: don't bypass permissions check in inode_setsecctx hook
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
selinux,smack: don't bypass permissions check in inode_setsecctx hook
Marek Gresko reports that the root user on an NFS client is able to
change the security labels on files on an NFS filesystem that is
exported with root squashing enabled.
The end of the kerneldoc comment for __vfs_setxattr_noperm() states:
* This function requires the caller to lock the inode's i_mutex before it
* is executed. It also assumes that the caller will make the appropriate
* permission checks.
nfsd_setattr() does do permissions checking via fh_verify() and
nfsd_permission(), but those
soc: qcom: cmd-db: Map shared memory as WC, not WB
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
soc: qcom: cmd-db: Map shared memory as WC, not WB
Linux does not write into cmd-db region. This region of memory is write
protected by XPU. XPU may sometime falsely detect clean cache eviction
as "write" into the write protected region leading to secure interrupt
which causes an endless loop somewhere in Trust Zone.
The only reason it is working right now is because Qualcomm Hypervisor
maps the same region as Non-Cacheable memory in Stage 2 translation
tables. The issue manifests if we want to use another hypervisor (like
Xen or KVM), which does not know anything about th
pinctrl: single: fix potential NULL dereference in pcs_get_function()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinctrl: single: fix potential NULL dereference in pcs_get_function()
pinmux_generic_get_function() can return NULL and the pointer 'function'
was dereferenced without checking against NULL. Add checking of pointer
'function' in pcs_get_function().
Found by code review.
ethtool: check device is present when getting link settings
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ethtool: check device is present when getting link settings
A sysfs reader can race with a device reset or removal, attempting to
read device state when the device is not actually present. eg:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gtp: fix a potential NULL pointer dereference
When sockfd_lookup() fails, gtp_encap_enable_socket() returns a
NULL pointer, but its callers only check for error pointers thus miss
the NULL pointer case.
Fix it by returning an error pointer with the error code carried from
sockfd_lookup().
(I found this bug during code inspection.)
