| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2024-08-07 | CVE-2024-42239 | Improper Locking vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Fail bpf_timer_cancel when callback is being cancelled Given a schedule: timer1 cb timer2 cb bpf_timer_cancel(timer2); bpf_timer_cancel(timer1); Both bpf_timer_cancel calls would wait for the other callback to finish executing, introducing a lockup. Add an atomic_t count named 'cancelling' in bpf_hrtimer. | 5.5 |
| 2024-08-07 | CVE-2024-42240 | Infinite Loop vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: x86/bhi: Avoid warning in #DB handler due to BHI mitigation When BHI mitigation is enabled, if SYSENTER is invoked with the TF flag set then entry_SYSENTER_compat() uses CLEAR_BRANCH_HISTORY and calls the clear_bhb_loop() before the TF flag is cleared. | 5.5 |
| 2024-08-07 | CVE-2024-42241 | Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/shmem: disable PMD-sized page cache if needed For shmem files, it's possible that PMD-sized page cache can't be supported by xarray. | 5.5 |
| 2024-08-07 | CVE-2024-42242 | Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mmc: sdhci: Fix max_seg_size for 64KiB PAGE_SIZE blk_queue_max_segment_size() ensured: if (max_size < PAGE_SIZE) max_size = PAGE_SIZE; whereas: blk_validate_limits() makes it an error: if (WARN_ON_ONCE(lim->max_segment_size < PAGE_SIZE)) return -EINVAL; The change from one to the other, exposed sdhci which was setting maximum segment size too low in some circumstances. Fix the maximum segment size when it is too low. | 5.5 |
| 2024-08-07 | CVE-2024-42243 | Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/filemap: make MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER acceptable to xarray Patch series "mm/filemap: Limit page cache size to that supported by xarray", v2. Currently, xarray can't support arbitrary page cache size. | 5.5 |
| 2024-08-07 | CVE-2024-42244 | Unspecified vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: USB: serial: mos7840: fix crash on resume Since commit c49cfa917025 ("USB: serial: use generic method if no alternative is provided in usb serial layer"), USB serial core calls the generic resume implementation when the driver has not provided one. This can trigger a crash on resume with mos7840 since support for multiple read URBs was added back in 2011. | 5.5 |
| 2024-08-07 | CVE-2024-42245 | Improper Locking vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Revert "sched/fair: Make sure to try to detach at least one movable task" This reverts commit b0defa7ae03ecf91b8bfd10ede430cff12fcbd06. b0defa7ae03ec changed the load balancing logic to ignore env.max_loop if all tasks examined to that point were pinned. | 5.5 |
| 2024-08-07 | CVE-2024-42246 | Infinite Loop vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net, sunrpc: Remap EPERM in case of connection failure in xs_tcp_setup_socket When using a BPF program on kernel_connect(), the call can return -EPERM. | 5.5 |
| 2024-08-07 | CVE-2024-42247 | Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wireguard: allowedips: avoid unaligned 64-bit memory accesses On the parisc platform, the kernel issues kernel warnings because swap_endian() tries to load a 128-bit IPv6 address from an unaligned memory location: Kernel: unaligned access to 0x55f4688c in wg_allowedips_insert_v6+0x2c/0x80 [wireguard] (iir 0xf3010df) Kernel: unaligned access to 0x55f46884 in wg_allowedips_insert_v6+0x38/0x80 [wireguard] (iir 0xf2010dc) Avoid such unaligned memory accesses by instead using the get_unaligned_be64() helper macro. [Jason: replace src[8] in original patch with src+8] | 5.5 |
| 2024-08-07 | CVE-2024-42248 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tty: serial: ma35d1: Add a NULL check for of_node The pdev->dev.of_node can be NULL if the "serial" node is absent. Add a NULL check to return an error in such cases. | 5.5 |
