In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: fix out-of-bounds access in ops_init
net_alloc_generic is called by net_alloc, which is called without any
locking. It reads max_gen_ptrs, which is changed under pernet_ops_rwsem. It
is read twice, first to allocate an array, then to set s.len, which is
later used to limit the bounds of the array access.
It is possible that the array is allocated and another thread is
registering a new pernet ops, increments max_gen_ptrs, which is then used
to set s.len with a larger than allocated length for the variable array.
Fix it by reading max_gen_ptrs only once in net_alloc_g
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: qca: add missing firmware sanity checks
Add the missing sanity checks when parsing the firmware files before
downloading them to avoid accessing and corrupting memory beyond the
vmalloced buffer.
Bluetooth: qca: fix info leak when fetching fw build id
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: qca: fix info leak when fetching fw build id
Add the missing sanity checks and move the 255-byte build-id buffer off
the stack to avoid leaking stack data through debugfs in case the
build-info reply is malformed.
clk: sunxi-ng: h6: Reparent CPUX during PLL CPUX rate change
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clk: sunxi-ng: h6: Reparent CPUX during PLL CPUX rate change
While PLL CPUX clock rate change when CPU is running from it works in
vast majority of cases, now and then it causes instability. This leads
to system crashes and other undefined behaviour. After a lot of testing
(30+ hours) while also doing a lot of frequency switches, we can't
observe any instability issues anymore when doing reparenting to stable
clock like 24 MHz oscillator.
mmc: sdhci-msm: pervent access to suspended controller
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: sdhci-msm: pervent access to suspended controller
Generic sdhci code registers LED device and uses host->runtime_suspended
flag to protect access to it. The sdhci-msm driver doesn't set this flag,
which causes a crash when LED is accessed while controller is runtime
suspended. Fix this by setting the flag correctly.
scsi: qla2xxx: Fix off by one in qla_edif_app_getstats()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: qla2xxx: Fix off by one in qla_edif_app_getstats()
The app_reply->elem[] array is allocated earlier in this function and it
has app_req.num_ports elements. Thus this > comparison needs to be >= to
prevent memory corruption.
i40e: fix vf may be used uninitialized in this function warning
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i40e: fix vf may be used uninitialized in this function warning
To fix the regression introduced by commit 52424f974bc5, which causes
servers hang in very hard to reproduce conditions with resets races.
Using two sources for the information is the root cause.
In this function before the fix bumping v didn't mean bumping vf
pointer. But the code used this variables interchangeably, so stale vf
could point to different/not intended vf.
Remove redundant "v" variable and iterate via single VF pointer across
whole function instead to guarantee VF pointer validity.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rtnetlink: Correct nested IFLA_VF_VLAN_LIST attribute validation
Each attribute inside a nested IFLA_VF_VLAN_LIST is assumed to be a
struct ifla_vf_vlan_info so the size of such attribute needs to be at least
of sizeof(struct ifla_vf_vlan_info) which is 14 bytes.
The current size validation in do_setvfinfo is against NLA_HDRLEN (4 bytes)
which is less than sizeof(struct ifla_vf_vlan_info) so this validation
is not enough and a too small attribute might be cast to a
struct ifla_vf_vlan_info, this might result in an out of bands
read access when accessing the saved (casted) e
tty: n_gsm: fix possible out-of-bounds in gsm0_receive()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tty: n_gsm: fix possible out-of-bounds in gsm0_receive()
Assuming the following:
- side A configures the n_gsm in basic option mode
- side B sends the header of a basic option mode frame with data length 1
- side A switches to advanced option mode
- side B sends 2 data bytes which exceeds gsm->len
Reason: gsm->len is not used in advanced option mode.
- side A switches to basic option mode
- side B keeps sending until gsm0_receive() writes past gsm->buf
Reason: Neither gsm->state nor gsm->len have been reset after
reconfiguration.
Fix this by changing gsm->count to gs
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp: do not accept ACK of bytes we never sent
This patch is based on a detailed report and ideas from Yepeng Pan
and Christian Rossow.
ACK seq validation is currently following RFC 5961 5.2 guidelines:
The ACK value is considered acceptable only if
it is in the range of ((SND.UNA - MAX.SND.WND) <= SEG.ACK <=
SND.NXT). All incoming segments whose ACK value doesn't satisfy the
above condition MUST be discarded and an ACK sent back. It needs to
be noted that RFC 793 on page 72 (fifth check) says: "If the ACK is a
duplicate (SEG.ACK < SND.UNA), it can be i
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ppdev: Add an error check in register_device
In register_device, the return value of ida_simple_get is unchecked,
in witch ida_simple_get will use an invalid index value.
To address this issue, index should be checked after ida_simple_get. When
the index value is abnormal, a warning message should be printed, the port
should be dropped, and the value should be recorded.
drm/arm/malidp: fix a possible null pointer dereference
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/arm/malidp: fix a possible null pointer dereference
In malidp_mw_connector_reset, new memory is allocated with kzalloc, but
no check is performed. In order to prevent null pointer dereferencing,
ensure that mw_state is checked before calling
__drm_atomic_helper_connector_reset.
tty: n_gsm: require CAP_NET_ADMIN to attach N_GSM0710 ldisc
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tty: n_gsm: require CAP_NET_ADMIN to attach N_GSM0710 ldisc
Any unprivileged user can attach N_GSM0710 ldisc, but it requires
CAP_NET_ADMIN to create a GSM network anyway.
Require initial namespace CAP_NET_ADMIN to do that.
can: dev: can_put_echo_skb(): don't crash kernel if can_priv::echo_skb is accessed out of bounds
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: dev: can_put_echo_skb(): don't crash kernel if can_priv::echo_skb is accessed out of bounds
If the "struct can_priv::echoo_skb" is accessed out of bounds, this
would cause a kernel crash. Instead, issue a meaningful warning
message and return with an error.
usb: typec: tcpm: Fix NULL pointer dereference in tcpm_pd_svdm()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: typec: tcpm: Fix NULL pointer dereference in tcpm_pd_svdm()

When port->partner is an error, a NULL pointer dereference may occur as
shown below.
