Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 6.19 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm: Set old handle to NULL before prime swap in change_handle
There was a potential race condition in change_handle. The ioctl
briefly had a single object with two idr entries; a concurrent
gem_close could delete the object and remove one of the handles
while leaving the other one dangling, which could subsequently
be dereferenced for a use-after-free.
To fix this, do the same dance that gem_close itself does.
(f6cd7daecff5 drm: Release driver references to handle before making it available again)
First idr_replace the old handle to NULL. Later, if the prime
operations are successful, actually close it.
create_tail required a similar dance to avoid a similar problem.
(bd46cece51a3 drm/gem: Fix race in drm_gem_handle_create_tail())
It idr_allocs the new handle with NULL, then swaps in the correct
object later to avoid races. We don't need to do that here, since
the only operations that could race are drm_prime, and
change_handle holds the prime lock for the entire duration.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe/hdcp: Add NULL check for media_gt in intel_hdcp_gsc_check_status()
When media GT is disabled via configfs, there is no allocation for
media_gt, which is kept as NULL. In such scenario,
intel_hdcp_gsc_check_status() results in a kernel pagefault error due to
>->uc.gsc being evaluated as an invalid memory address.
Fix that by introducing a NULL check on media_gt and bailing out early
if so.
While at it, also drop the NULL check for gsc, since it can't be NULL if
media_gt is not NULL.
v2:
- Get address for gsc only after checking that gt is not NULL.
(Shuicheng)
- Drop the NULL check for gsc. (Shuicheng)
v3:
- Add "Fixes" and "Cc: <stable...>" tags. (Matt)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: Add bounds checking to ib_{get,set}_value
The uvd/vce/vcn code accesses the IB at predefined offsets without
checking that the IB is large enough. Check the bounds here. The caller
is responsible for making sure it can handle arbitrary return values.
Also make the idx a uint32_t to prevent overflows causing the condition
to fail.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: mpc52xx: fix use-after-free on unbind
The state machine work is scheduled by the interrupt handler and
therefore needs to be cancelled after disabling interrupts to avoid a
potential use-after-free.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu/sdma4: replace BUG_ON with WARN_ON in fence emission
sdma_v4_0_ring_emit_fence() contains two BUG_ON(addr & 0x3) assertions
that verify fence writeback addresses are dword-aligned. These
assertions can be reached from unprivileged userspace via crafted
DRM_IOCTL_AMDGPU_CS submissions, causing a fatal kernel panic in a
scheduler worker thread.
Replace both BUG_ON() calls with WARN_ON() to log the condition without
crashing the kernel. A misaligned fence address at this point indicates
a driver bug, but crashing the kernel is never the correct response when
the assertion is reachable from userspace.
The CS IOCTL path is the correct place to filter invalid submissions;
the ring emission callback is too late to do anything about it.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
EDAC/versalnet: Fix device name memory leak
The device name allocated via kzalloc() in init_one_mc() is assigned to
dev->init_name but never freed on the normal removal path. device_register()
copies init_name and then sets dev->init_name to NULL, so the name pointer
becomes unreachable from the device. Thus leaking memory.
Use a stack-local char array instead of using kzalloc() for name.

drm/amdgpu/vcn4: Prevent OOB reads when parsing IB
Rewrite the IB parsing to use amdgpu_ib_get_value() which handles the

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: media: atomisp: Disallow all private IOCTLs
Disallow all private IOCTLs. These aren't quite as safe as one could
assume of IOCTL handlers; disable them for now. Instead of removing the
code, return in the beginning of the function if cmd is non-zero in order
to keep static checkers happy.
