Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 2.6.35 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/srp: bound SRP_RSP sense copy by the received length
srp_process_rsp() copies sense data from rsp->data + resp_data_len,
where resp_data_len is the full 32-bit value supplied by the SRP target
and is never checked against the number of bytes actually received
(wc->byte_len). The copy length is bounded to SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE, so
at most 96 bytes are copied, but the source offset is not bounded.
A malicious or compromised SRP target on the InfiniBand/RoCE fabric that
the initiator has logged into can return an SRP_RSP with
SRP_RSP_FLAG_SNSVALID set and a large resp_data_len. The receive buffer
is allocated at the target-chosen max_ti_iu_len, so the source of the
sense copy lands past the bytes actually received; with resp_data_len
near 0xFFFFFFFF it is gigabytes past the buffer and the read faults.
Copy the sense data only if it has not been truncated, that is, only if
the response header, the response data, and the sense region fit within
the bytes actually received; otherwise drop the sense and log. The
in-tree iSER and NVMe-RDMA receive paths already bound their parse by
wc->byte_len; this brings ib_srp into line with them.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: serial: kl5kusb105: fix bulk-out buffer overflow
klsi_105_prepare_write_buffer() is called by the generic write path
with the bulk-out buffer and its size (bulk_out_size, 64 bytes). It
stores a two-byte length header at the start of the buffer and copies
the payload from the write fifo starting at buf + KLSI_HDR_LEN, but
passes the full buffer size as the number of bytes to copy:
count = kfifo_out_locked(&port->write_fifo, buf + KLSI_HDR_LEN,
size, &port->lock);
When the fifo holds at least size bytes, size bytes are copied starting
two bytes into the size-byte buffer, writing KLSI_HDR_LEN bytes past its
end. Copy at most size - KLSI_HDR_LEN bytes instead, leaving room for
the header as safe_serial already does.
Writing bulk_out_size or more bytes to the tty triggers a slab
out-of-bounds write, observed with KASAN by emulating the device with
dummy_hcd and raw-gadget:
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in kfifo_copy_out+0x83/0xc0
Write of size 64 at addr ffff888112c62202 by task python3
kfifo_copy_out
klsi_105_prepare_write_buffer [kl5kusb105]
usb_serial_generic_write_start [usbserial]
Allocated by task 139:
usb_serial_probe [usbserial]
The buggy address is located 2 bytes inside of allocated 64-byte region
The out-of-bounds write no longer occurs with this change applied.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: serial: io_ti: fix heap overflow in build_i2c_fw_hdr()
build_i2c_fw_hdr() allocates a fixed-size buffer of
(16*1024 - 512) + sizeof(struct ti_i2c_firmware_rec) bytes, then
copies le16_to_cpu(img_header->Length) bytes into it without
validating that Length fits within the available space after the
firmware record header.
img_header->Length is a __le16 from the firmware file and can be
up to 65535. check_fw_sanity() validates the total firmware size
but not img_header->Length specifically.
Fix by rejecting images where img_header->Length exceeds the
available destination space.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: phonet: free phonet_device after RCU grace period
phonet_device_destroy() removes a phonet_device from the per-net device
list with list_del_rcu(), but frees it immediately. RCU readers walking
the same list can still hold a pointer to the object after it has been
removed, leading to a slab-use-after-free.
Use kfree_rcu(), matching the lifetime rule already used by
phonet_address_del() for the same object type.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: require Ethernet MAC header before using eth_hdr()
`ip6t_eui64`, `xt_mac`, the `bitmap:ip,mac`, `hash:ip,mac`, and
`hash:mac` ipset types, and `nf_log_syslog` access `eth_hdr(skb)`
after either assuming that the skb is associated with an Ethernet
device or checking only that the `ETH_HLEN` bytes at
`skb_mac_header(skb)` lie between `skb->head` and `skb->data`.
Make these paths first verify that the skb is associated with an
Ethernet device, that the MAC header was set, and that it spans at
least a full Ethernet header before accessing `eth_hdr(skb)`.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/omfs: reject s_sys_blocksize smaller than OMFS_DIR_START
omfs_fill_super() rejects oversized s_sys_blocksize values (> PAGE_SIZE),
but it does not reject values smaller than OMFS_DIR_START (0x1b8 = 440).
Later, omfs_make_empty() uses
sbi->s_sys_blocksize - OMFS_DIR_START
as the length argument to memset(). Since s_sys_blocksize is u32,
a crafted filesystem image with s_sys_blocksize < OMFS_DIR_START causes
an unsigned underflow there, wrapping to a value near 2^32. That drives
a ~4 GiB memset() from bh->b_data + OMFS_DIR_START and overwrites kernel
memory far beyond the backing block buffer.
Add the corresponding lower-bound check alongside the existing upper-bound
check in omfs_fill_super(), so that malformed images are rejected during
superblock validation before any filesystem data is processed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: hamradio: 6pack: fix uninit-value in sixpack_receive_buf
sixpack_receive_buf() does not properly skip bytes with TTY error flags.
The while loop iterates through the flags buffer but never advances the
data pointer (cp), and passes the original count (including error bytes)
to sixpack_decode(). This causes sixpack_decode() to process bytes that
should have been skipped due to TTY errors. The TTY layer does not
guarantee that cp[i] holds a meaningful value when fp[i] is set, so
passing those positions to sixpack_decode() results in KMSAN reporting
an uninit-value read.
Fix this by processing bytes one at a time, advancing cp on each
iteration, and only passing valid (non-error) bytes to sixpack_decode().
This matches the pattern used by slip_receive_buf() and
mkiss_receive_buf() for the same purpose.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ppp: require CAP_NET_ADMIN in target netns for unattached ioctls
/dev/ppp open is currently authorized against file->f_cred->user_ns,
while unattached administrative ioctls operate on current->nsproxy->net_ns.
As a result, a local unprivileged user can create a new user namespace
with CLONE_NEWUSER, gain CAP_NET_ADMIN only in that new user namespace,
and still issue PPPIOCNEWUNIT, PPPIOCATTACH, or PPPIOCATTCHAN against
an inherited network namespace.
Require CAP_NET_ADMIN in the user namespace that owns the target network
namespace before handling unattached PPP administrative ioctls.
This preserves normal pppd operation in the network namespace it is
actually privileged in, while rejecting the userns-only inherited-netns
case.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm log: fix out-of-bounds write due to region_count overflow
The local variable region_count in create_log_context() is declared as
unsigned int (32-bit), but dm_sector_div_up() returns sector_t (64-bit).
When a device-mapper target has a sufficiently large ti->len with a small
region_size, the division result can exceed UINT_MAX. The truncated
value is then used to calculate bitset_size, causing clean_bits,
sync_bits, and recovering_bits to be allocated far smaller than needed
for the actual number of regions.
Subsequent log operations (log_set_bit, log_clear_bit, log_test_bit) use
region indices derived from the full untruncated region space, causing
out-of-bounds writes to kernel heap memory allocated by vmalloc.
This can be reproduced by creating a mirror target whose region_count
overflows 32 bits:
dmsetup create bigzero --table '0 8589934594 zero'
dmsetup create mymirror --table '0 8589934594 mirror \
core 2 2 nosync 2 /dev/mapper/bigzero 0 \
/dev/mapper/bigzero 0'
The status output confirms the truncation (sync_count=1 instead of
4294967297, because 0x100000001 was truncated to 1):
$ dmsetup status mymirror
0 8589934594 mirror 2 254:1 254:1 1/4294967297 ...
This leads to a kernel crash in core_in_sync:
BUG: scheduling while atomic: (udev-worker)/9150/0x00000000
RIP: 0010:core_in_sync+0x14/0x30 [dm_log]
CR2: 0000000000000008
Fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed!
Fix by widening the local region_count to sector_t and adding an
explicit overflow check before the value is assigned to lc->region_count.

[CAUSE]
ocfs2_group_add() calls ocfs2_set_new_buffer_uptodate() on a
user-controlled group block before ocfs2_verify_group_and_input()
validates that block number. That helper is only valid for newly
allocated metadata and asserts that the block is not already present in
the chosen metadata cache. The code also uses INODE_CACHE(inode) even
though the group descriptor belongs to main_bm_inode and later journal
accesses use that cache context instead.
[FIX]
Validate the on-disk group descriptor before caching it, then add it to
the metadata cache tracked by INODE_CACHE(main_bm_inode). Keep the
validation failure path separate from the later cleanup path so we only
remove the buffer from that cache after it has actually been inserted.
This keeps the group buffer lifetime consistent across validation,
journaling, and cleanup.
