| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm flakey: fix a crash with invalid table line
This command will crash with NULL pointer dereference:
dmsetup create flakey --table \
"0 `blockdev --getsize /dev/ram0` flakey /dev/ram0 0 0 1 2 corrupt_bio_byte 512"
Fix the crash by checking if arg_name is non-NULL before comparing it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
FS: JFS: Check for read-only mounted filesystem in txBegin
This patch adds a check for read-only mounted filesystem
in txBegin before starting a transaction potentially saving
from NULL pointer deref. |

The reason for this is that on certain arm64 configuration since
e35123d83ee3 ("arm64: lto: Strengthen READ_ONCE() to acquire when
CONFIG_LTO=y"), READ_ONCE() may be promoted to a full atomic acquire
instruction which cannot be used on unaligned addresses.
Fix it by avoiding READ_ONCE() in read_instrumented_memory(), and simply
forcing the compiler to do the required access by casting to the
appropriate volatile type. In terms of generated code this currently
only affects architectures that do not use the default READ_ONCE()
implementation.
The only downside is that we are not guaranteed atomicity of the access
itself, although on most architectures a plain load up to machine word
size should still be atomic (a fact the default READ_ONCE() still relies
on itself). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
posix-timers: Ensure timer ID search-loop limit is valid
posix_timer_add() tries to allocate a posix timer ID by starting from the
cached ID which was stored by the last successful allocation.
This is done in a loop searching the ID space for a free slot one by
one. The loop has to terminate when the search wrapped around to the
starting point.
But that's racy vs. establishing the starting point. That is read out
lockless, which leads to the following problem:
CPU0 CPU1
posix_timer_add()
start = sig->posix_timer_id;
lock(hash_lock);
... posix_timer_add()
if (++sig->posix_timer_id < 0)
start = sig->posix_timer_id;
sig->posix_timer_id = 0;
So CPU1 can observe a negative start value, i.e. -1, and the loop break
never happens because the condition can never be true:
if (sig->posix_timer_id == start)
break;
While this is unlikely to ever turn into an endless loop as the ID space is
huge (INT_MAX), the racy read of the start value caught the attention of
KCSAN and Dmitry unearthed that incorrectness.
Rewrite it so that all id operations are under the hash lock. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md: raid1: fix potential OOB in raid1_remove_disk()
If rddev->raid_disk is greater than mddev->raid_disks, there will be
an out-of-bounds in raid1_remove_disk(). We have already found
similar reports as follows:
1) commit d17f744e883b ("md-raid10: fix KASAN warning")
2) commit 1ebc2cec0b7d ("dm raid: fix KASAN warning in raid5_remove_disk")
Fix this bug by checking whether the "number" variable is
valid. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ring-buffer: Do not swap cpu_buffer during resize process
When ring_buffer_swap_cpu was called during resize process,
the cpu buffer was swapped in the middle, resulting in incorrect state.
Continuing to run in the wrong state will result in oops.
This issue can be easily reproduced using the following two scripts:
/tmp # cat test1.sh
//#! /bin/sh
for i in `seq 0 100000`
do
echo 2000 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/buffer_size_kb
sleep 0.5
echo 5000 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/buffer_size_kb
sleep 0.5
done
/tmp # cat test2.sh
//#! /bin/sh
for i in `seq 0 100000`
do
echo irqsoff > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
sleep 1
echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
sleep 1
done
/tmp # ./test1.sh &
/tmp # ./test2.sh &
A typical oops log is as follows, sometimes with other different oops logs.

wifi: brcmfmac: cfg80211: Pass the PMK in binary instead of hex
Apparently the hex passphrase mechanism does not work on newer
chips/firmware (e.g. BCM4387). It seems there was a simple way of
passing it in binary all along, so use that and avoid the hexification.
OpenBSD has been doing it like this from the beginning, so this should
work on all chips.
Also clear the structure before setting the PMK. This was leaking
uninitialized stack contents to the device. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPI: x86: s2idle: Catch multiple ACPI_TYPE_PACKAGE objects
If a badly constructed firmware includes multiple `ACPI_TYPE_PACKAGE`
objects while evaluating the AMD LPS0 _DSM, there will be a memory
leak. Explicitly guard against this. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
udf: Detect system inodes linked into directory hierarchy
When UDF filesystem is corrupted, hidden system inodes can be linked
into directory hierarchy which is an avenue for further serious
corruption of the filesystem and kernel confusion as noticed by syzbot
fuzzed images. Refuse to access system inodes linked into directory
hierarchy and vice versa. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: uhci: fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup()
When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it,
otherwise the memory will leak over time. To make things simpler, just
call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic
at once. |

Add a simple check that avoids incrementing a pointer by zero, but
otherwise behaves as before. Note that our findings are against ACPICA
20221020, but the same code exists on master. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: 8250: Reinit port->pm on port specific driver unbind
When we unbind a serial port hardware specific 8250 driver, the generic
serial8250 driver takes over the port. After that we see an oops about 10
seconds later. This can produce the following at least on some TI SoCs:
Unhandled fault: imprecise external abort (0x1406)
Internal error: : 1406 [#1] SMP ARM
Turns out that we may still have the serial port hardware specific driver
port->pm in use, and serial8250_pm() tries to call it after the port
specific driver is gone:
serial8250_pm [8250_base] from uart_change_pm+0x54/0x8c [serial_base]
uart_change_pm [serial_base] from uart_hangup+0x154/0x198 [serial_base]
uart_hangup [serial_base] from __tty_hangup.part.0+0x328/0x37c
__tty_hangup.part.0 from disassociate_ctty+0x154/0x20c
disassociate_ctty from do_exit+0x744/0xaac
do_exit from do_group_exit+0x40/0x8c
do_group_exit from __wake_up_parent+0x0/0x1c
Let's fix the issue by calling serial8250_set_defaults() in
serial8250_unregister_port(). This will set the port back to using
the serial8250 default functions, and sets the port->pm to point to
serial8250_pm. |

md/raid10: prevent soft lockup while flush writes
Currently, there is no limit for raid1/raid10 plugged bio. While flushing
writes, raid1 has cond_resched() while raid10 doesn't, and too many
writes can cause soft lockup.
Follow up soft lockup can be triggered easily with writeback test for
raid10 with ramdisks:
watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#10 stuck for 27s! [md0_raid10:1293]

Fix the problem by adding cond_resched() to raid10 like what raid1 did.
Note that unlimited plugged bio still need to be optimized, for example,
in the case of lots of dirty pages writeback, this will take lots of
memory and io will spend a long time in plug, hence io latency is bad. |
