Double Free

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: cfg80211: clear wdev->cqm_config pointer on free When we free wdev->cqm_config when unregistering, we also need to clear out the pointer since the same wdev/netdev may get re-registered in another network namespace, then destroyed later, running this code again, which results in a double-free.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nvmet-auth: assign dh_key to NULL after kfree_sensitive ctrl->dh_key might be used across multiple calls to nvmet_setup_dhgroup() for the same controller. So it's better to nullify it after release on error path in order to avoid double free later in nvmet_destroy_auth(). Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Svace.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: firmware: arm_scmi: Fix the double free in scmi_debugfs_common_setup() Clang static checker(scan-build) throws below warning： | drivers/firmware/arm_scmi/driver.c:line 2915, column 2 | Attempt to free released memory. When devm_add_action_or_reset() fails, scmi_debugfs_common_cleanup() will run twice which causes double free of 'dbg->name'. Remove the redundant scmi_debugfs_common_cleanup() to fix this problem.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb: client: fix possible double free in smb2_set_ea() Clang static checker(scan-build) warning： fs/smb/client/smb2ops.c:1304:2: Attempt to free released memory. 1304 | kfree(ea); | ^~~~~~~~~ There is a double free in such case: 'ea is initialized to NULL' -> 'first successful memory allocation for ea' -> 'something failed, goto sea_exit' -> 'first memory release for ea' -> 'goto replay_again' -> 'second goto sea_exit before allocate memory for ea' -> 'second memory release for ea resulted in double free'. Re-initialie 'ea' to NULL near to the replay_again label, it can fix this double free problem.Show less

In Eclipse Mosquito, versions from 2.0.0 through 2.0.18, if a Mosquitto broker is configured to create an outgoing bridge connection, and that bridge connection has an incoming topic configured that makes use of topic remapping, then if the remote connection sends a crafted PUBLISH packet to the broker a double free will occur with a subsequent crash of the broker.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pinctrl: nuvoton: fix a double free in ma35_pinctrl_dt_node_to_map_func() 'new_map' is allocated using devm_* which takes care of freeing the allocated data on device removal, call to .dt_free_map = pinconf_generic_dt_free_map double frees the map as pinconf_generic_dt_free_map() calls pinctrl_utils_free_map(). Fix this by using kcalloc() instead of auto-managed devm_kcalloc().Show less

In lwis_device_event_states_clear_locked of lwis_event.c, there is a possible privilege escalation due to a double free. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: driver core: bus: Fix double free in driver API bus_register() For bus_register(), any error which happens after kset_register() will cause that @priv are freed twice, fixed by setting @priv with NULL after the first free.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: fix double free issue during amdgpu module unload Flexible endpoints use DIGs from available inflexible endpoints, so only the encoders of inflexible links need to be freed. Otherwise, a double free issue may occur when unloading the amdgpu module.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: drop ppath from ext4_ext_replay_update_ex() to avoid double-free When calling ext4_force_split_extent_at() in ext4_ext_replay_update_ex(), the 'ppath' is updated but it is the 'path' that is freed, thus potentially triggering a double-free in the following process: ext4_ext_replay_update_ex ppath = path ext4_force_split_extent_at(&ppath) ext4_split_extent_at ext4_ext_insert_extent ext4_ext_create_new_leaf ext4_ext_grow_indepth ext4_find_extent if (depth > path[0].p_maxdepth) kfree(path) ---> path First freed *orig_path = path = NULL ---> null ppath kfree(path) ---> path double-free !!! So drop the unnecessary ppath and use path directly to avoid this problem. And use ext4_find_extent() directly to update path, avoiding unnecessary memory allocation and freeing. Also, propagate the error returned by ext4_find_extent() instead of using strange error codes.Show less

This issue tracks two CWE-416 Use After Free (UAF) and one CWE-415 Double Free vulnerabilities in Goahead versions <= 6.0.0. These are caused by JST values not being nulled when freed during parsing of JST templates. If the ME_GOAHEAD_JAVASCRIPT flag is enabled, a remote attacker with the privileges to modify JavaScript template (JST) files could exploit this by providing malicious templates. This may lead to memory corruption, potentially causing a Denial of Service (DoS) or, in rare cases, code execution, though the latter is highly context-dependent.Show less

Picotls is a TLS protocol library that allows users select different crypto backends based on their use case. When parsing a spoofed TLS handshake message, picotls (specifically, bindings within picotls that call the crypto libraries) may attempt to free the same memory twice. This double free occurs during the disposal of multiple objects without any intervening calls to malloc Typically, this triggers the malloc implementation to detect the error and abort the process. However, depending on the internals of malloc and the crypto backend being used, the flaw could potentially lead to a use-after-free scenario, which might allow for arbitrary code execution. The vulnerability is addressed with commit 9b88159ce763d680e4a13b6e8f3171ae923a535d.Show less

Multiple vulnerabilities in the Cisco AnyConnect VPN server of Cisco Meraki MX and Cisco Meraki Z Series Teleworker Gateway devices could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a DoS condition in the AnyConnect service on an affected device. These vulnerabilities are due to insufficient validation of client-supplied parameters while establishing an SSL VPN session. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by sending a crafted HTTPS request to the VPN server of an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause the Cisco AnyConnect VPN server to restart, resulting in the failure of the established SSL VPN connections and forcing remote users to initiate a new VPN connection and reauthenticate. A sustained attack could prevent new SSL VPN connections from being established. Note: When the attack traffic stops, the Cisco AnyConnect VPN server recovers gracefully without requiring manual intervention.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: misc: fastrpc: Fix double free of 'buf' in error path smatch warning: drivers/misc/fastrpc.c:1926 fastrpc_req_mmap() error: double free of 'buf' In fastrpc_req_mmap() error path, the fastrpc buffer is freed in fastrpc_req_munmap_impl() if unmap is successful. But in the end, there is an unconditional call to fastrpc_buf_free(). So the above case triggers the double free of fastrpc buf.Show less
