The Linux Kernel, the operating system core itself.

Security Fix(es):

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

jfs: fix null ptr deref in dtInsertEntry

[syzbot reported] general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000001: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTI KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000008-0x000000000000000f] CPU: 0 PID: 5061 Comm: syz-executor404 Not tainted 6.8.0-syzkaller-08951-gfe46a7dd189e #0 Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 03/27/2024 RIP: 0010:dtInsertEntry+0xd0c/0x1780 fs/jfs/jfs_dtree.c:3713 ... [Analyze] In dtInsertEntry(), when the pointer h has the same value as p, after writing name in UniStrncpy_to_le(), p->header.flag will be cleared. This will cause the previously true judgment "p->header.flag & BT-LEAF" to change to no after writing the name operation, this leads to entering an incorrect branch and accessing the uninitialized object ih when judging this condition for the second time.

[Fix] After got the page, check freelist first, if freelist == 0 then exit dtInsert() and return -EINVAL.(CVE-2024-44939)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

usb: gadget: core: Check for unset descriptor

Make sure the descriptor has been set before looking at maxpacket. This fixes a null pointer panic in this case.

This may happen if the gadget doesn't properly set up the endpoint for the current speed, or the gadget descriptors are malformed and the descriptor for the speed/endpoint are not found.

No current gadget driver is known to have this problem, but this may cause a hard-to-find bug during development of new gadgets.(CVE-2024-44960)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net/mlx5e: SHAMPO, Fix invalid WQ linked list unlink

When all the strides in a WQE have been consumed, the WQE is unlinked from the WQ linked list (mlx5_wq_ll_pop()). For SHAMPO, it is possible to receive CQEs with 0 consumed strides for the same WQE even after the WQE is fully consumed and unlinked. This triggers an additional unlink for the same wqe which corrupts the linked list.

Fix this scenario by accepting 0 sized consumed strides without unlinking the WQE again.(CVE-2024-44970)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ipv6: prevent possible UAF in ip6_xmit()

If skb_expand_head() returns NULL, skb has been freed and the associated dst/idev could also have been freed.

We must use rcu_read_lock() to prevent a possible UAF.(CVE-2024-44985)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ipv6: fix possible UAF in ip6_finish_output2()

If skb_expand_head() returns NULL, skb has been freed and associated dst/idev could also have been freed.

We need to hold rcu_read_lock() to make sure the dst and associated idev are alive.(CVE-2024-44986)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ipv6: prevent UAF in ip6_send_skb()

syzbot reported an UAF in ip6_send_skb() [1]

After ip6_local_out() has returned, we no longer can safely dereference rt, unless we hold rcu_read_lock().

A similar issue has been fixed in commit a688caa34beb ("ipv6: take rcu lock in rawv6_send_hdrinc()")

Another potential issue in ip6_finish_output2() is handled in a separate patch.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Fix out-of-bound access

If an ATU violation was caused by a CPU Load operation, the SPID could be larger than DSA_MAX_PORTS (the size of mv88e6xxx_chip.ports[] array).(CVE-2024-44988)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bpf: Fix a kernel verifier crash in stacksafe()

Daniel Hodges reported a kernel verifier crash when playing with sched-ext. Further investigation shows that the crash is due to invalid memory access in stacksafe(). More specifically, it is the following code:

if (exact != NOT_EXACT &&
    old->stack[spi].slot_type[i % BPF_REG_SIZE] !=
    cur->stack[spi].slot_type[i % BPF_REG_SIZE])
        return false;

The 'i' iterates old->allocated_stack. If cur->allocated_stack < old->allocated_stack the out-of-bound access will happen.

To fix the issue add 'i >= cur->allocated_stack' check such that if the condition is true, stacksafe() should fail. Otherwise, cur->stack[spi].slot_type[i % BPF_REG_SIZE] memory access is legal.(CVE-2024-45020)
