Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 2.6.34.2 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: serialize accept_q access
bt_sock_poll() walks the accept queue without synchronization, while
child teardown can unlink the same socket and drop its last reference.
The unsynchronized accept queue walk has existed since the initial
Bluetooth import.
Protect accept_q with a dedicated lock for queue updates and polling.
Also rework bt_accept_dequeue() to take temporary child references under
the queue lock before dropping it and locking the child socket.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: xt_policy: fix strict mode inbound policy matching
match_policy_in() walks sec_path entries from the last transform to the
first one, but strict policy matching needs to consume info->pol[] in
the same forward order as the rule layout.
Derive the strict-match policy position from the number of transforms
already consumed so that multi-element inbound rules are matched
consistently.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm: fix a buffer overflow in ioctl processing
Tony Asleson (using Claude) found a buffer overflow in dm-ioctl in the
function retrieve_status:
1. The code in retrieve_status checks that the output string fits into
the output buffer and writes the output string there
2. Then, the code aligns the "outptr" variable to the next 8-byte
boundary:
outptr = align_ptr(outptr);
3. The alignment doesn't check overflow, so outptr could point past the
buffer end
4. The "for" loop is iterated again, it executes:
remaining = len - (outptr - outbuf);
5. If "outptr" points past "outbuf + len", the arithmetics wraps around
and the variable "remaining" contains unusually high number
6. With "remaining" being high, the code writes more data past the end of
the buffer
Luckily, this bug has no security implications because:
1. Only root can issue device mapper ioctls
2. The commonly used libraries that communicate with device mapper
(libdevmapper and devicemapper-rs) use buffer size that is aligned to
8 bytes - thus, "outptr = align_ptr(outptr)" can't overshoot the input
buffer and the bug can't happen accidentally

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
inet: RAW sockets using IPPROTO_RAW MUST drop incoming ICMP
Yizhou Zhao reported that simply having one RAW socket on protocol
IPPROTO_RAW (255) was dangerous.
socket(AF_INET, SOCK_RAW, 255);
A malicious incoming ICMP packet can set the protocol field to 255
and match this socket, leading to FNHE cache changes.
inner = IP(src="192.168.2.1", dst="8.8.8.8", proto=255)/Raw("TEST")
pkt = IP(src="192.168.1.1", dst="192.168.2.1")/ICMP(type=3, code=4, nexthopmtu=576)/inner
"man 7 raw" states:
A protocol of IPPROTO_RAW implies enabled IP_HDRINCL and is able
to send any IP protocol that is specified in the passed header.
Receiving of all IP protocols via IPPROTO_RAW is not possible
using raw sockets.
Make sure we drop these malicious packets.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
procfs: fix missing RCU protection when reading real_parent in do_task_stat()
When reading /proc/[pid]/stat, do_task_stat() accesses task->real_parent
without proper RCU protection, which leads to:
cpu 0 cpu 1
----- -----
do_task_stat
var = task->real_parent
release_task
call_rcu(delayed_put_task_struct)
task_tgid_nr_ns(var)
rcu_read_lock <--- Too late to protect task->real_parent!
task_pid_ptr <--- UAF!
rcu_read_unlock
This patch uses task_ppid_nr_ns() instead of task_tgid_nr_ns() to add
proper RCU protection for accessing task->real_parent.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: reject userspace cifs.spnego descriptions
cifs.spnego key descriptions contain authority-bearing fields such as
pid, uid, creduid, and upcall_target that cifs.upcall treats as
kernel-originating inputs. However, userspace can also create keys of
this type through request_key(2) or add_key(2), allowing those fields to
be supplied without CIFS origin.
Only accept cifs.spnego descriptions while CIFS is using its private
spnego_cred to request the key.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: saa7164: add ioremap return checks and cleanups
Add checks for ioremap return values in saa7164_dev_setup(). If
ioremap for BAR0 or BAR2 fails, release the already allocated PCI
memory regions, remove the device from the global list, decrement
the device count, and return -ENODEV.
This prevents potential null pointer dereferences and ensures proper
cleanup on memory mapping failures.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: mpc52xx: fix use-after-free on registration failure
Make sure to disable and free the interrupts in case controller
registration fails to avoid a potential use-after-free and resource
leak.
This issue was flagged by Sashiko when reviewing a controller
deregistration fix.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sound: ua101: fix division by zero at probe
Add a missing sanity check for bNrChannels in detect_usb_format()
to prevent a division by zero in playback_urb_complete() and
capture_urb_complete().
USB core does not validate class-specific descriptor fields such
as bNrChannels, so drivers must verify them before use. If a
device provides bNrChannels = 0, frame_bytes becomes zero and is
later used as a divisor in the URB completion handlers, leading
to a kernel crash.
