| 2024-07-06 | CVE-2024-39486 | Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/drm_file: Fix pid refcounting race <[email protected]>, Maxime Ripard <[email protected]>, Thomas Zimmermann <[email protected]> filp->pid is supposed to be a refcounted pointer; however, before this patch, drm_file_update_pid() only increments the refcount of a struct pid after storing a pointer to it in filp->pid and dropping the dev->filelist_mutex, making the following race possible: process A process B ========= ========= begin drm_file_update_pid mutex_lock(&dev->filelist_mutex) rcu_replace_pointer(filp->pid, <pid B>, 1) mutex_unlock(&dev->filelist_mutex) begin drm_file_update_pid mutex_lock(&dev->filelist_mutex) rcu_replace_pointer(filp->pid, <pid A>, 1) mutex_unlock(&dev->filelist_mutex) get_pid(<pid A>) synchronize_rcu() put_pid(<pid B>) *** pid B reaches refcount 0 and is freed here *** get_pid(<pid B>) *** UAF *** synchronize_rcu() put_pid(<pid A>) As far as I know, this race can only occur with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y because it requires RCU to detect a quiescent state in code that is not explicitly calling into the scheduler. This race leads to use-after-free of a "struct pid". It is probably somewhat hard to hit because process A has to pass through a synchronize_rcu() operation while process B is between mutex_unlock() and get_pid(). Fix it by ensuring that by the time a pointer to the current task's pid is stored in the file, an extra reference to the pid has been taken. This fix also removes the condition for synchronize_rcu(); I think that optimization is unnecessary complexity, since in that case we would usually have bailed out on the lockless check above. | 7.0 |
| 2024-06-21 | CVE-2024-38381 | Use of Uninitialized Resource vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfc: nci: Fix uninit-value in nci_rx_work syzbot reported the following uninit-value access issue [1] nci_rx_work() parses received packet from ndev->rx_q. | 7.1 |
| 2024-05-21 | CVE-2021-47319 | Memory Leak vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: virtio-blk: Fix memory leak among suspend/resume procedure The vblk->vqs should be freed before we call init_vqs() in virtblk_restore(). | 5.5 |
| 2024-05-21 | CVE-2021-47321 | Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: watchdog: Fix possible use-after-free by calling del_timer_sync() This driver's remove path calls del_timer(). | 7.8 |
| 2024-05-21 | CVE-2021-47330 | Memory Leak vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tty: serial: 8250: serial_cs: Fix a memory leak in error handling path In the probe function, if the final 'serial_config()' fails, 'info' is leaking. Add a resource handling path to free this memory. | 5.5 |
| 2024-05-21 | CVE-2021-47334 | Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: misc/libmasm/module: Fix two use after free in ibmasm_init_one In ibmasm_init_one, it calls ibmasm_init_remote_input_dev(). Inside ibmasm_init_remote_input_dev, mouse_dev and keybd_dev are allocated by input_allocate_device(), and assigned to sp->remote.mouse_dev and sp->remote.keybd_dev respectively. In the err_free_devices error branch of ibmasm_init_one, mouse_dev and keybd_dev are freed by input_free_device(), and return error. | 7.8 |
| 2024-05-21 | CVE-2021-47345 | Memory Leak vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/cma: Fix rdma_resolve_route() memory leak Fix a memory leak when "mda_resolve_route() is called more than once on the same "rdma_cm_id". This is possible if cma_query_handler() triggers the RDMA_CM_EVENT_ROUTE_ERROR flow which puts the state machine back and allows rdma_resolve_route() to be called again. | 5.5 |
| 2024-05-21 | CVE-2021-47353 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: udf: Fix NULL pointer dereference in udf_symlink function In function udf_symlink, epos.bh is assigned with the value returned by udf_tgetblk. | 5.5 |
| 2024-05-21 | CVE-2021-47355 | Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: atm: nicstar: Fix possible use-after-free in nicstar_cleanup() This module's remove path calls del_timer(). | 7.8 |
| 2024-05-21 | CVE-2021-47357 | Use After Free vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: atm: iphase: fix possible use-after-free in ia_module_exit() This module's remove path calls del_timer(). | 7.8 |
