|---|---|---|---|
| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-47742 | Path Traversal vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: firmware_loader: Block path traversal Most firmware names are hardcoded strings, or are constructed from fairly constrained format strings where the dynamic parts are just some hex numbers or such. However, there are a couple codepaths in the kernel where firmware file names contain string components that are passed through from a device or semi-privileged userspace; the ones I could find (not counting interfaces that require root privileges) are: - lpfc_sli4_request_firmware_update() seems to construct the firmware filename from "ModelName", a string that was previously parsed out of some descriptor ("Vital Product Data") in lpfc_fill_vpd() - nfp_net_fw_find() seems to construct a firmware filename from a model name coming from nfp_hwinfo_lookup(pf->hwinfo, "nffw.partno"), which I think parses some descriptor that was read from the device. (But this case likely isn't exploitable because the format string looks like "netronome/nic_%s", and there shouldn't be any *folders* starting with "netronome/nic_". | 7.8 |
| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-47745 | Always-Incorrect Control Flow Implementation vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm: call the security_mmap_file() LSM hook in remap_file_pages() The remap_file_pages syscall handler calls do_mmap() directly, which doesn't contain the LSM security check. | 7.8 |
| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-47747 | Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: seeq: Fix use after free vulnerability in ether3 Driver Due to Race Condition In the ether3_probe function, a timer is initialized with a callback function ether3_ledoff, bound to &prev(dev)->timer. | 7.0 |
| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-47749 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/cxgb4: Added NULL check for lookup_atid The lookup_atid() function can return NULL if the ATID is invalid or does not exist in the identifier table, which could lead to dereferencing a null pointer without a check in the `act_establish()` and `act_open_rpl()` functions. Add a NULL check to prevent null pointer dereferencing. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE. | 5.5 |
| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-47757 | Out-of-bounds Read vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nilfs2: fix potential oob read in nilfs_btree_check_delete() The function nilfs_btree_check_delete(), which checks whether degeneration to direct mapping occurs before deleting a b-tree entry, causes memory access outside the block buffer when retrieving the maximum key if the root node has no entries. This does not usually happen because b-tree mappings with 0 child nodes are never created by mkfs.nilfs2 or nilfs2 itself. | 7.1 |
| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-49851 | Incomplete Cleanup vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tpm: Clean up TPM space after command failure tpm_dev_transmit prepares the TPM space before attempting command transmission. | 5.5 |
| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-49858 | Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: efistub/tpm: Use ACPI reclaim memory for event log to avoid corruption The TPM event log table is a Linux specific construct, where the data produced by the GetEventLog() boot service is cached in memory, and passed on to the OS using an EFI configuration table. The use of EFI_LOADER_DATA here results in the region being left unreserved in the E820 memory map constructed by the EFI stub, and this is the memory description that is passed on to the incoming kernel by kexec, which is therefore unaware that the region should be reserved. Even though the utility of the TPM2 event log after a kexec is questionable, any corruption might send the parsing code off into the weeds and crash the kernel. | 5.5 |
| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-49859 | Race Condition vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix to check atomic_file in f2fs ioctl interfaces Some f2fs ioctl interfaces like f2fs_ioc_set_pin_file(), f2fs_move_file_range(), and f2fs_defragment_range() missed to check atomic_write status, which may cause potential race issue, fix it. | 4.7 |
| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-49860 | Type Confusion vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ACPI: sysfs: validate return type of _STR method Only buffer objects are valid return values of _STR. If something else is returned description_show() will access invalid memory. | 7.1 |
| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-49861 | Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Fix helper writes to read-only maps Lonial found an issue that despite user- and BPF-side frozen BPF map (like in case of .rodata), it was still possible to write into it from a BPF program side through specific helpers having ARG_PTR_TO_{LONG,INT} as arguments. In check_func_arg() when the argument is as mentioned, the meta->raw_mode is never set. | 7.1 |
