Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 3.10.31 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: usb: kalmia: bound RX frame length in kalmia_rx_fixup()
kalmia_rx_fixup() computes usb_packet_length = skb->len - (2 *
KALMIA_HEADER_LENGTH) as a u16, guarded only by a pre-loop check that
skb->len is at least KALMIA_HEADER_LENGTH, which is 6. A device can
deliver a short bulk-IN frame with skb->len in the 6 to 11 range, or
leave a short trailing remainder on a later loop iteration. Either case
underflows usb_packet_length to about 65530.
That bypasses the usb_packet_length < ether_packet_length truncation path.
The device-supplied ether_packet_length, a le16 up to 65535 read from
header_start[2], then drives a memcmp() and the following skb_trim() and
skb_pull() past the end of the rx buffer. The rx buffer is hard_mtu * 10,
which is 14000 bytes. That is an out of bounds read.
Require both the start and end framing headers to be present before
subtracting them, on every loop iteration.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: iowarrior: fix use-after-free on disconnect race
mutex_unlock() may access the mutex structure after releasing the lock
and therefore cannot be used to manage lifetime of objects directly
(unlike spinlocks and refcounts). [1][2]
Use a kref to release the driver data to avoid use-after-free in
mutex_unlock() when release() races with disconnect().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: iowarrior: fix use-after-free on disconnect
Submitted write URBs are not stopped on close() and therefore need to be
stopped unconditionally on disconnect() to avoid use-after-free in the
completion handler.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: serial: digi_acceleport: fix write buffer corruption
The digi_write_inb_command() is supposed to wait for the write urb to
become available or return an error, but instead it updates the transfer
buffer and tries to resubmit the urb on timeout.
To make things worse, for commands like break control where no timeout
is used, the driver would corrupt the urb immediately due to a broken
jiffies comparison (on 32-bit machines this takes five minutes of uptime
to trigger due to INITIAL_JIFFIES).
Fix this by adding the missing return on timeout and waiting
indefinitely when no timeout has been specified as intended.
This issue was (sort of) flagged by Sashiko when reviewing an unrelated
change to the driver.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: serial: digi_acceleport: fix hard lockup on disconnect
If submitting the OOB write urb fails persistently (e.g if the device is
being disconnected) the driver would loop indefinitely with interrupts
disabled.
Check for urb submission errors when sending OOB commands to avoid
hanging if, for example, open(), set_termios() or close() races with a
physical disconnect.
This is issue was flagged by Sashiko when reviewing an unrelated change
to the driver.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: serial: digi_acceleport: fix broken rx after throttle
If the port is closed while throttled, the read urb is never resubmitted
and the port will not receive any further data until the device is
reconnected (or the driver is rebound).
Clear the throttle flags and submit the urb if needed when opening the
port.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
isofs: bound Rock Ridge symlink components to the SL record
get_symlink_chunk() and the SL handling in
parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal() walk the variable-length components of
a Rock Ridge "SL" (symbolic link) record. Each component is a two-byte
header (flags, len) followed by len bytes of text, so it occupies
slp->len + 2 bytes. Both loops read slp->len and advance to the next
component, and get_symlink_chunk() additionally does
memcpy(rpnt, slp->text, slp->len), but neither checks that the component
lies within the SL record before dereferencing it.
A crafted SL record whose component declares a len that runs past the
record (rr->len) therefore triggers an out-of-bounds read of up to 255
bytes. When the record sits at the tail of its backing buffer - for
example a small kmalloc()ed continuation block reached through a CE
record - the read crosses the allocation; get_symlink_chunk() then
copies the out-of-bounds bytes into the symlink body returned to user
space by readlink(), disclosing adjacent kernel memory.
ISO 9660 images are routinely mounted from untrusted removable media -
desktop environments auto-mount them (e.g. via udisks2) without
CAP_SYS_ADMIN - so the record contents are attacker-controlled.
Reject any component that does not fit in the remaining record bytes
before using it. In get_symlink_chunk() return NULL, like the existing
output-buffer (plimit) checks, so a malformed record makes readlink()
fail with -EIO rather than silently returning a truncated target; in
parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal() stop the inode-size walk.
