| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
binder: fix UAF in binder_netlink_report()
Oneway transactions sent to frozen targets via binder_proc_transaction()
return a BR_TRANSACTION_PENDING_FROZEN error but they are still treated
as successful since the target is expected to thaw at some point. It is
then not safe to access 't' after BR_TRANSACTION_PENDING_FROZEN errors
as the transaction could have been consumed by the now thawed target.
This is the case for binder_netlink_report() which derreferences 't'
after a pending frozen error, as pointed out by the following KASAN
report:

Instead, make a transaction copy so the data can be safely accessed by
binder_netlink_report() after a pending frozen error. While here, add a
comment about not using t->buffer in binder_netlink_report(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: iwlwifi: mld: cancel mlo_scan_start_wk
mlo_scan_start_wk is not canceled on disconnection. In fact, it is not
canceled anywhere except in the restart cleanup, where we don't really
have to.
This can cause an init-after-queue issue: if, for example, the work was
queued and then drv_change_interface got executed.
This can also cause use-after-free: if the work is executed after the
vif is freed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
linkwatch: use __dev_put() in callers to prevent UAF
After linkwatch_do_dev() calls __dev_put() to release the linkwatch
reference, the device refcount may drop to 1. At this point,
netdev_run_todo() can proceed (since linkwatch_sync_dev() sees an
empty list and returns without blocking), wait for the refcount to
become 1 via netdev_wait_allrefs_any(), and then free the device
via kobject_put().
This creates a use-after-free when __linkwatch_run_queue() tries to
call netdev_unlock_ops() on the already-freed device.
Note that adding netdev_lock_ops()/netdev_unlock_ops() pair in
netdev_run_todo() before kobject_put() would not work, because
netdev_lock_ops() is conditional - it only locks when
netdev_need_ops_lock() returns true. If the device doesn't require
ops_lock, linkwatch won't hold any lock, and netdev_run_todo()
acquiring the lock won't provide synchronization.
Fix this by moving __dev_put() from linkwatch_do_dev() to its
callers. The device reference logically pairs with de-listing the
device, so it's reasonable for the caller that did the de-listing
to release it. This allows placing __dev_put() after all device
accesses are complete, preventing UAF.
The bug can be reproduced by adding mdelay(2000) after
linkwatch_do_dev() in __linkwatch_run_queue(), then running:
ip tuntap add mode tun name tun_test
ip link set tun_test up
ip link set tun_test carrier off
ip link set tun_test carrier on
sleep 0.5
ip tuntap del mode tun name tun_test

freed 512-byte region [ffff888106715400, ffff888106715600)

The issue occurs because a pool can still be held by a caller after its
associated memory region is unregistered. The current implementation frees
the pool even if users still hold references to it (e.g., before uncharge
operations complete).
This patch adds a reference counter to each pool, ensuring that a pool is
only freed when its reference count drops to zero. |
| Linux kernel 2.6.16-rc2 and earlier, when running on x86_64 systems with preemption enabled, allows local users to cause a denial of service (oops) via multiple ptrace tasks that perform single steps, which can cause corruption of the DEBUG_STACK stack during the do_debug function call. |
| KDE kppp allows local users to create a directory in an arbitrary location via the HOME environmental variable. |
| KDE allows local users to execute arbitrary commands by setting the KDEDIR environmental variable to modify the search path that KDE uses to locate its executables. |
| KDE klock allows local users to kill arbitrary processes by specifying an arbitrary PID in the .kss.pid file. |
| The route cache implementation in Linux 2.4, and the Netfilter IP conntrack module, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via packets with forged source addresses that cause a large number of hash table collisions. |
| Buffer overflow in the USB Gadget RNDIS implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.16 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (kmalloc'd memory corruption) via a remote NDIS response to OID_GEN_SUPPORTED_LIST, which causes memory to be allocated for the reply data but not the reply structure. |
| ICMP messages to broadcast addresses are allowed, allowing for a Smurf attack that can cause a denial of service. |
| The die_if_kernel function in arch/ia64/kernel/unaligned.c in Linux kernel 2.6.x before 2.6.15.6, possibly when compiled with certain versions of gcc, has the "noreturn" attribute set, which allows local users to cause a denial of service by causing user faults on Itanium systems. |
| net/ipv4/af_inet.c in Linux kernel 2.4 does not clear sockaddr_in.sin_zero before returning IPv4 socket names from the (1) getsockname, (2) getpeername, and (3) accept functions, which allows local users to obtain portions of potentially sensitive memory. |
| net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c in Linux kernel 2.4 and 2.6, and possibly net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_conntrack_l3proto_ipv4.c in 2.6, does not clear sockaddr_in.sin_zero before returning IPv4 socket names from the getsockopt function with SO_ORIGINAL_DST, which allows local users to obtain portions of potentially sensitive memory. |
| Race condition between the kfree_skb and __skb_unlink functions in the socket buffer handling in Linux kernel 2.6.9, and possibly other versions, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash), as demonstrated using the TCP stress tests from the LTP test suite. |
| Linux kernel before 2.3.18 or 2.2.13pre15, with SLIP and PPP options, allows local unprivileged users to forge IP packets via the TIOCSETD option on tty devices. |
| Linux bdash game has a buffer overflow that allows local users to gain root access. |
| strace allows local users to read arbitrary files via memory mapped file names. |
| Multiple TCP implementations could allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (bandwidth and CPU exhaustion) by setting the maximum segment size (MSS) to a very small number and requesting large amounts of data, which generates more packets with less TCP-level data that amplify network traffic and consume more server CPU to process. |
| The Linux Kernel before 2.6.15.5 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NFS client panic) via unknown attack vectors related to the use of O_DIRECT (direct I/O). |
