Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In May 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mlxsw: thermal: Fix out-of-bounds memory accesses
Currently, mlxsw allows cooling states to be set above the maximum
cooling state supported by the driver:
# cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone2/cdev0/type
mlxsw_fan
# cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone2/cdev0/max_state
10
# echo 18 > /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone2/cdev0/cur_state
# echo $?
0
This results in out-of-bounds memory accesses when thermal state
transition statistics are enabled (CONFIG_THERMAL_STATISTICS=y), as the
transition table is accessed with a too large index (state) [1].
According to the thermal maintainer, it is the responsibility of the
driver to reject such operations [2].
Therefore, return an error when the state to be set exceeds the maximum
cooling state supported by the driver.
To avoid dead code, as suggested by the thermal maintainer [3],
partially revert commit a421ce088ac8 ("mlxsw: core: Extend cooling
device with cooling levels") that tried to interpret these invalid
cooling states (above the maximum) in a special way. The cooling levels
array is not removed in order to prevent the fans going below 20% PWM,
which would cause them to get stuck at 0% PWM.

NFC: digital: fix possible memory leak in digital_in_send_sdd_req()
'skb' is allocated in digital_in_send_sdd_req(), but not free when
digital_in_send_cmd() failed, which will cause memory leak. Fix it

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/edid: In connector_bad_edid() cap num_of_ext by num_blocks read
In commit e11f5bd8228f ("drm: Add support for DP 1.4 Compliance edid
corruption test") the function connector_bad_edid() started assuming
that the memory for the EDID passed to it was big enough to hold
`edid[0x7e] + 1` blocks of data (1 extra for the base block). It
completely ignored the fact that the function was passed `num_blocks`
which indicated how much memory had been allocated for the EDID.
Let's fix this by adding a bounds check.
This is important for handling the case where there's an error in the
first block of the EDID. In that case we will call
connector_bad_edid() without having re-allocated memory based on
`edid[0x7e]`.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm: Fix null pointer dereference on pointer edp
The initialization of pointer dev dereferences pointer edp before
edp is null checked, so there is a potential null pointer deference
issue. Fix this by only dereferencing edp after edp has been null
checked.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm/a4xx: fix error handling in a4xx_gpu_init()
This code returns 1 on error instead of a negative error. It leads to
an Oops in the caller. A second problem is that the check for
"if (ret != -ENODATA)" cannot be true because "ret" is set to 1.

These error paths returned 1 on failure, instead of a negative error

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: fix possible stall on recvmsg()
recvmsg() can enter an infinite loop if the caller provides the
MSG_WAITALL, the data present in the receive queue is not sufficient to
fulfill the request, and no more data is received by the peer.
When the above happens, mptcp_wait_data() will always return with
no wait, as the MPTCP_DATA_READY flag checked by such function is
set and never cleared in such code path.
Leveraging the above syzbot was able to trigger an RCU stall:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix abort logic in btrfs_replace_file_extents
Error injection testing uncovered a case where we'd end up with a
corrupt file system with a missing extent in the middle of a file. This
occurs because the if statement to decide if we should abort is wrong.
The only way we would abort in this case is if we got a ret !=
-EOPNOTSUPP and we called from the file clone code. However the
prealloc code uses this path too. Instead we need to abort if there is
an error, and the only error we _don't_ abort on is -EOPNOTSUPP and only
if we came from the clone file code.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xhci: Fix command ring pointer corruption while aborting a command
The command ring pointer is located at [6:63] bits of the command
ring control register (CRCR). All the control bits like command stop,
abort are located at [0:3] bits. While aborting a command, we read the
CRCR and set the abort bit and write to the CRCR. The read will always
give command ring pointer as all zeros. So we essentially write only
the control bits. Since we split the 64 bit write into two 32 bit writes,
there is a possibility of xHC command ring stopped before the upper
dword (all zeros) is written. If that happens, xHC updates the upper
dword of its internal command ring pointer with all zeros. Next time,
when the command ring is restarted, we see xHC memory access failures.
Fix this issue by only writing to the lower dword of CRCR where all
control bits are located.
