tracing: Fix warning in trace_buffered_event_disable()
Warning happened in trace_buffered_event_disable() at
WARN_ON_ONCE(!trace_buffered_event_ref)
Call Trace:
? __warn+0xa5/0x1b0
? trace_buffered_event_disable+0x189/0x1b0

[...]
The cause of the warning is in __ftrace_event_enable_disable(),
trace_buffered_event_enable() was called once while
trace_buffered_event_disable() was called twice.
Reproduction script show as below, for analysis, see the comments:
```
#!/bin/bash
cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
# 1. Register a 'disable_event' command, then:
# 1) SOFT_DISABLED_BIT was set;
# 2) trace_buffered_event_enable() was called first time;
echo 'cmdline_proc_show:disable_event:initcall:initcall_finish' > \
set_ftrace_filter
# 2. Enable the event registered, then:
# 1) SOFT_DISABLED_BIT was cleared;
# 2) trace_buffered_event_disable() was called first time;
echo 1 > events/initcall/initcall_finish/enable
# 3. Try to call into cmdline_proc_show(), then SOFT_DISABLED_BIT was
# set again!!!
cat /proc/cmdline
# 4. Unregister the 'disable_event' command, then:
# 1) SOFT_DISABLED_BIT was cleared again;
# 2) trace_buffered_event_disable() was called second time!!!
echo '!cmdline_proc_show:disable_event:initcall:initcall_finish' > \
set_ftrace_filter
```
To fix it, IIUC, we can change to call trace_buffered_event_enable() at
fist time soft-mode enabled, and call trace_buffered_event_disable() at
last time soft-mode disabled. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
regulator: raa215300: Fix resource leak in case of error
The clk_register_clkdev() allocates memory by calling vclkdev_alloc() and
this memory is not freed in the error path. Similarly, resources allocated
by clk_register_fixed_rate() are not freed in the error path.
Fix these issues by using devm_clk_hw_register_fixed_rate() and
devm_clk_hw_register_clkdev().
After this, the static variable clk is not needed. Replace it withÂ
local variable hw in probe() and drop calling clk_unregister_fixed_rate()
from raa215300_rtc_unregister_device(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ethernet: mtk_eth_soc: fix possible NULL pointer dereference in mtk_hwlro_get_fdir_all()
rule_locs is allocated in ethtool_get_rxnfc and the size is determined by
rule_cnt from user space. So rule_cnt needs to be check before using
rule_locs to avoid NULL pointer dereference. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/meson: explicitly remove aggregate driver at module unload time
Because component_master_del wasn't being called when unloading the
meson_drm module, the aggregate device would linger forever in the global
aggregate_devices list. That means when unloading and reloading the
meson_dw_hdmi module, component_add would call into
try_to_bring_up_aggregate_device and find the unbound meson_drm aggregate
device.
This would in turn dereference some of the aggregate_device's struct
entries which point to memory automatically freed by the devres API when
unbinding the aggregate device from meson_drv_unbind, and trigger an
use-after-free bug:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: SOF: avoid a NULL dereference with unsupported widgets
If an IPC4 topology contains an unsupported widget, its .module_info
field won't be set, then sof_ipc4_route_setup() will cause a kernel
Oops trying to dereference it. Add a check for such cases. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: hi311x: fix null pointer dereference when resuming from sleep before interface was enabled
This issue is similar to the vulnerability in the `mcp251x` driver,
which was fixed in commit 03c427147b2d ("can: mcp251x: fix resume from
sleep before interface was brought up").
In the `hi311x` driver, when the device resumes from sleep, the driver
schedules `priv->restart_work`. However, if the network interface was
not previously enabled, the `priv->wq` (workqueue) is not allocated and
initialized, leading to a null pointer dereference.
To fix this, we move the allocation and initialization of the workqueue
from the `hi3110_open` function to the `hi3110_can_probe` function.
This ensures that the workqueue is properly initialized before it is
used during device resume. And added logic to destroy the workqueue
in the error handling paths of `hi3110_can_probe` and in the
`hi3110_can_remove` function to prevent resource leaks. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: stricter state check in mptcp_worker
As reported by Christoph, the mptcp protocol can run the
worker when the relevant msk socket is in an unexpected state:
connect()
// incoming reset + fastclose
// the mptcp worker is scheduled
mptcp_disconnect()
// msk is now CLOSED

| VestaCP commit a3f0fa1 (2018-05-31) up to commit ee03eff (2018-06-13) contain embedded malicious code that resulted in a supply-chain compromise. New installations created from the compromised installer since at least May 2018 were subject to installation of Linux/ChachaDDoS, a multi-stage DDoS bot that uses Lua for second- and third-stage components. The compromise leaked administrative credentials (base64-encoded admin password and server domain) to an external URL during installation and/or resulted in the installer dropping and executing a DDoS malware payload under local system privileges. Compromised servers were subsequently observed participating in large-scale DDoS activity. Vesta acknowledged exploitation in the wild in October 2018. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rapidio: rio: fix possible name leak in rio_register_mport()
If device_register() returns error, the name allocated by dev_set_name()
need be freed. It should use put_device() to give up the reference in the
error path, so that the name can be freed in kobject_cleanup(), and
list_del() is called to delete the port from rio_mports. |

The problem was caused by the fact that the driver does not check
whether the endpoints it uses are actually present and have the
appropriate types. This can be fixed by adding a simple check of
the endpoints. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: stream: purge sk_error_queue in sk_stream_kill_queues()
Changheon Lee reported TCP socket leaks, with a nice repro.
It seems we leak TCP sockets with the following sequence:
1) SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_ACK is enabled on the socket.
Each ACK will cook an skb put in error queue, from __skb_tstamp_tx().
__skb_tstamp_tx() is using skb_clone(), unless
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY was also requested.
2) If the application is also using MSG_ZEROCOPY, then we put in the
error queue cloned skbs that had a struct ubuf_info attached to them.
Whenever an struct ubuf_info is allocated, sock_zerocopy_alloc()
does a sock_hold().
As long as the cloned skbs are still in sk_error_queue,
socket refcount is kept elevated.
3) Application closes the socket, while error queue is not empty.
Since tcp_close() no longer purges the socket error queue,
we might end up with a TCP socket with at least one skb in
error queue keeping the socket alive forever.
This bug can be (ab)used to consume all kernel memory
and freeze the host.
We need to purge the error queue, with proper synchronization
against concurrent writers. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
remoteproc: sysmon: fix memory leak in qcom_add_sysmon_subdev()
The kfree() should be called when of_irq_get_byname() fails or
devm_request_threaded_irq() fails in qcom_add_sysmon_subdev(),
otherwise there will be a memory leak, so add kfree() to fix it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
auxdisplay: hd44780: Fix potential memory leak in hd44780_remove()
hd44780_probe() allocates a memory chunk for hd with kzalloc() and
makes "lcd->drvdata->hd44780" point to it. When we call hd44780_remove(),
we should release all relevant memory and resource. But "lcd->drvdata
->hd44780" is not released, which will lead to a memory leak.
We should release the "lcd->drvdata->hd44780" in hd44780_remove() to fix
the memory leak bug. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath9k: hif_usb: Fix use-after-free in ath9k_hif_usb_reg_in_cb()
It is possible that skb is freed in ath9k_htc_rx_msg(), then
usb_submit_urb() fails and we try to free skb again. It causes
use-after-free bug. Moreover, if alloc_skb() fails, urb->context becomes
NULL but rx_buf is not freed and there can be a memory leak.
The patch removes unnecessary nskb and makes skb processing more clear: it
is supposed that ath9k_htc_rx_msg() either frees old skb or passes its
managing to another callback function.

scsi: snic: Fix possible UAF in snic_tgt_create()
Smatch reports a warning as follows:
drivers/scsi/snic/snic_disc.c:307 snic_tgt_create() warn:
'&tgt->list' not removed from list
If device_add() fails in snic_tgt_create(), tgt will be freed, but
tgt->list will not be removed from snic->disc.tgt_list, then list traversal
may cause UAF.
Remove from snic->disc.tgt_list before free(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix deadlock when converting an inline directory in nojournal mode
In no journal mode, ext4_finish_convert_inline_dir() can self-deadlock
by calling ext4_handle_dirty_dirblock() when it already has taken the
directory lock. There is a similar self-deadlock in
ext4_incvert_inline_data_nolock() for data files which we'll fix at
the same time.
A simple reproducer demonstrating the problem:
mke2fs -Fq -t ext2 -O inline_data -b 4k /dev/vdc 64
mount -t ext4 -o dirsync /dev/vdc /vdc
cd /vdc

powerpc/powernv/sriov: perform null check on iov before dereferencing iov
Currently pointer iov is being dereferenced before the null check of iov
which can lead to null pointer dereference errors. Fix this by moving the
iov null check before the dereferencing.

the condition '!iov' is redundant or there is possible null pointer
dereference: iov. [nullPointerRedundantCheck]

dm: fix a race condition in retrieve_deps
There's a race condition in the multipath target when retrieve_deps
races with multipath_message calling dm_get_device and dm_put_device.
retrieve_deps walks the list of open devices without holding any lock
but multipath may add or remove devices to the list while it is
running. The end result may be memory corruption or use-after-free
memory access.
See this description of a UAF with multipath_message():
https://listman.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2022-October/052373.html
Fix this bug by introducing a new rw semaphore "devices_lock". We grab
devices_lock for read in retrieve_deps and we grab it for write in
dm_get_device and dm_put_device. |
