CVE-2024-56708 |
Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
EDAC/igen6: Avoid segmentation fault on module unload
The segmentation fault happens because:
During modprobe:
1. In igen6_probe(), igen6_pvt will be allocated with kzalloc()
2. In igen6_register_mci(), mci->pvt_info will point to
&igen6_pvt->imc[mc]
During rmmod:
1. In mci_release() in edac_mc.c, it will kfree(mci->pvt_info)
2. In igen6_remove(), it will kfree(igen6_pvt);
Fix this issue by setting mci->pvt_info to NULL to avoid the double
kfree.

CVE-2024-56706 |
Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/cpum_sf: Fix and protect memory allocation of SDBs with mutex
Reservation of the PMU hardware is done at first event creation
and is protected by a pair of mutex_lock() and mutex_unlock().
After reservation of the PMU hardware the memory
required for the PMUs the event is to be installed on is
allocated by allocate_buffers() and alloc_sampling_buffer().
This done outside of the mutex protection.
Without mutex protection two or more concurrent invocations of
perf_event_init() may run in parallel.
This can lead to allocation of Sample Data Blocks (SDBs)
multiple times for the same PMU.
Prevent this and protect memory allocation of SDBs by
mutex.

CVE-2024-56705 |
Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: atomisp: Add check for rgby_data memory allocation failure
In ia_css_3a_statistics_allocate(), there is no check on the allocation
result of the rgby_data memory. If rgby_data is not successfully
allocated, it may trigger the assert(host_stats->rgby_data) assertion in
ia_css_s3a_hmem_decode(). Adding a check to fix this potential issue.

CVE-2024-56703 |
Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: Fix soft lockups in fib6_select_path under high next hop churn
Soft lockups have been observed on a cluster of Linux-based edge routers
located in a highly dynamic environment. Using the `bird` service, these
routers continuously update BGP-advertised routes due to frequently
changing nexthop destinations, while also managing significant IPv6
traffic. The lockups occur during the traversal of the multipath
circular linked-list in the `fib6_select_path` function, particularly
while iterating through the siblings in the list. The issue typically
arises when the nodes of the linked list are unexpectedly deleted
concurrently on a different core—indicated by their 'next' and
'previous' elements pointing back to the node itself and their reference
count dropping to zero. This results in an infinite loop, leading to a
soft lockup that triggers a system panic via the watchdog timer.
Apply RCU primitives in the problematic code sections to resolve the
issue. Where necessary, update the references to fib6_siblings to
annotate or use the RCU APIs.
Include a test script that reproduces the issue. The script
periodically updates the routing table while generating a heavy load
of outgoing IPv6 traffic through multiple iperf3 clients. It
consistently induces infinite soft lockups within a couple of minutes.

CVE-2024-56702 |
Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Mark raw_tp arguments with PTR_MAYBE_NULL
Arguments to a raw tracepoint are tagged as trusted, which carries the
semantics that the pointer will be non-NULL. However, in certain cases,
a raw tracepoint argument may end up being NULL. More context about this
issue is available in [0].
Thus, there is a discrepancy between the reality, that raw_tp arguments
can actually be NULL, and the verifier's knowledge, that they are never
NULL, causing explicit NULL checks to be deleted, and accesses to such
pointers potentially crashing the kernel.
To fix this, mark raw_tp arguments as PTR_MAYBE_NULL, and then special
case the dereference and pointer arithmetic to permit it, and allow
passing them into helpers/kfuncs; these exceptions are made for raw_tp
programs only. Ensure that we don't do this when ref_obj_id > 0, as in
that case this is an acquired object and doesn't need such adjustment.
The reason we do mask_raw_tp_trusted_reg logic is because other will
recheck in places whether the register is a trusted_reg, and then
consider our register as untrusted when detecting the presence of the
PTR_MAYBE_NULL flag.
To allow safe dereference, we enable PROBE_MEM marking when we see loads
into trusted pointers with PTR_MAYBE_NULL.
While trusted raw_tp arguments can also be passed into helpers or kfuncs
where such broken assumption may cause issues, a future patch set will
tackle their case separately, as PTR...

CVE-2024-56700 |
Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: wl128x: Fix atomicity violation in fmc_send_cmd()
Atomicity violation occurs when the fmc_send_cmd() function is executed
simultaneously with the modification of the fmdev->resp_skb value.
Consider a scenario where, after passing the validity check within the
function, a non-null fmdev->resp_skb variable is assigned a null value.
This results in an invalid fmdev->resp_skb variable passing the validity
check. As seen in the later part of the function, skb = fmdev->resp_skb;
when the invalid fmdev->resp_skb passes the check, a null pointer
dereference error may occur at line 478, evt_hdr = (void *)skb->data;
To address this issue, it is recommended to include the validity check of
fmdev->resp_skb within the locked section of the function. This
modification ensures that the value of fmdev->resp_skb does not change
during the validation process, thereby maintaining its validity.
This possible bug is found by an experimental static analysis tool
developed by our team. This tool analyzes the locking APIs
to extract function pairs that can be concurrently executed, and then
analyzes the instructions in the paired functions to identify possible
concurrency bugs including data races and atomicity violations.
