In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfc: fdp: Fix potential memory leak in fdp_nci_send() fdp_nci_send() will call fdp_nci_i2c_write that will not free skb in the function. As a result, when fdp_nci_i2c_write() finished, the skb will memleak. fdp_nci_send() should free skb after fdp_nci_i2c_write() finished.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfc: nxp-nci: Fix potential memory leak in nxp_nci_send() nxp_nci_send() will call nxp_nci_i2c_write(), and only free skb when nxp_nci_i2c_write() failed. However, even if the nxp_nci_i2c_write() run succeeds, the skb will not be freed in nxp_nci_i2c_write(). As the result, the skb will memleak. nxp_nci_send() should also free the skb when nxp_nci_i2c_write() succeeds.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfc: nfcmrvl: Fix potential memory leak in nfcmrvl_i2c_nci_send() nfcmrvl_i2c_nci_send() will be called by nfcmrvl_nci_send(), and skb should be freed in nfcmrvl_i2c_nci_send(). However, nfcmrvl_nci_send() will only free skb when i2c_master_send() return >=0, which means skb will memleak when i2c_master_send() failed. Free skb no matter whether i2c_master_send() succeeds.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: sched: Fix use after free in red_enqueue() We can't use "skb" again after passing it to qdisc_enqueue(). This is basically identical to commit 2f09707d0c97 ("sch_sfb: Also store skb len before calling child enqueue").Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: nf_tables: netlink notifier might race to release objects commit release path is invoked via call_rcu and it runs lockless to release the objects after rcu grace period. The netlink notifier handler might win race to remove objects that the transaction context is still referencing from the commit release path. Call rcu_barrier() to ensure pending rcu callbacks run to completion if the list of transactions to be destroyed is not empty.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: nf_tables: release flow rule object from commit path No need to postpone this to the commit release path, since no packets are walking over this object, this is accessed from control plane only. This helped uncovered UAF triggered by races with the netlink notifier.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rose: Fix NULL pointer dereference in rose_send_frame() The syzkaller reported an issue: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000380-0x0000000000000387] CPU: 0 PID: 4069 Comm: kworker/0:15 Not tainted 6.0.0-syzkaller-02734-g0326074ff465 #0 Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 09/22/2022 Workqueue: rcu_gp srcu_invoke_callbacks RIP: 0010:rose_send_frame+0x1dd/0x2f0 net/rose/rose_link.c:101 Call Trace: <IRQ> rose_transmit_clear_request+0x1d5/0x290 net/rose/rose_link.c:255 rose_rx_call_request+0x4c0/0x1bc0 net/rose/af_rose.c:1009 rose_loopback_timer+0x19e/0x590 net/rose/rose_loopback.c:111 call_timer_fn+0x1a0/0x6b0 kernel/time/timer.c:1474 expire_timers kernel/time/timer.c:1519 [inline] __run_timers.part.0+0x674/0xa80 kernel/time/timer.c:1790 __run_timers kernel/time/timer.c:1768 [inline] run_timer_softirq+0xb3/0x1d0 kernel/time/timer.c:1803 __do_softirq+0x1d0/0x9c8 kernel/softirq.c:571 [...] </IRQ> It triggers NULL pointer dereference when 'neigh->dev->dev_addr' is called in the rose_send_frame(). It's the first occurrence of the `neigh` is in rose_loopback_timer() as `rose_loopback_neigh', and the 'dev' in 'rose_loopback_neigh' is initialized sa nullptr. It had been fixed by commit 3b3fd068c56e3fbea30090859216a368398e39bf ("rose: Fix Null pointer dereference in rose_send_frame()") ever. But it's introduced by commit 3c53cd65dece47dd1f9d3a809f32e59d1d87b2b8 ("rose: check NULL rose_loopback_neigh->loopback") again. We fix it by add NULL check in rose_transmit_clear_request().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mISDN: fix possible memory leak in mISDN_register_device() Afer commit 1fa5ae857bb1 ("driver core: get rid of struct device's bus_id string array"), the name of device is allocated dynamically, add put_device() to give up the reference, so that the name can be freed in kobject_cleanup() when the refcount is 0. Set device class before put_device() to avoid null release() function WARN message in device_release().Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: fix inode list leak during backref walking at resolve_indirect_refs() During backref walking, at resolve_indirect_refs(), if we get an error we jump to the 'out' label and call ulist_free() on the 'parents' ulist, which frees all the elements in the ulist - however that does not free any inode lists that may be attached to elements, through the 'aux' field of a ulist node, so we end up leaking lists if we have any attached to the unodes. Fix this by calling free_leaf_list() instead of ulist_free() when we exit from resolve_indirect_refs(). The static function free_leaf_list() is moved up for this to be possible and it's slightly simplified by removing unnecessary code.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: fix inode list leak during backref walking at find_parent_nodes() During backref walking, at find_parent_nodes(), if we are dealing with a data extent and we get an error while resolving the indirect backrefs, at resolve_indirect_refs(), or in the while loop that iterates over the refs in the direct refs rbtree, we end up leaking the inode lists attached to the direct refs we have in the direct refs rbtree that were not yet added to the refs ulist passed as argument to find_parent_nodes(). Since they were not yet added to the refs ulist and prelim_release() does not free the lists, on error the caller can only free the lists attached to the refs that were added to the refs ulist, all the remaining refs get their inode lists never freed, therefore leaking their memory. Fix this by having prelim_release() always free any attached inode list to each ref found in the rbtree, and have find_parent_nodes() set the ref's inode list to NULL once it transfers ownership of the inode list to a ref added to the refs ulist passed to find_parent_nodes().Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: fix ulist leaks in error paths of qgroup self tests In the test_no_shared_qgroup() and test_multiple_refs() qgroup self tests, if we fail to add the tree ref, remove the extent item or remove the extent ref, we are returning from the test function without freeing the "old_roots" ulist that was allocated by the previous calls to btrfs_find_all_roots(). Fix that by calling ulist_free() before returning.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix use-after-free caused by l2cap_reassemble_sdu Fix the race condition between the following two flows that run in parallel: 1. l2cap_reassemble_sdu -> chan->ops->recv (l2cap_sock_recv_cb) -> __sock_queue_rcv_skb. 2. bt_sock_recvmsg -> skb_recv_datagram, skb_free_datagram. An SKB can be queued by the first flow and immediately dequeued and freed by the second flow, therefore the callers of l2cap_reassemble_sdu can't use the SKB after that function returns. However, some places continue accessing struct l2cap_ctrl that resides in the SKB's CB for a short time after l2cap_reassemble_sdu returns, leading to a use-after-free condition (the stack trace is below, line numbers for kernel 5.19.8). Fix it by keeping a local copy of struct l2cap_ctrl.

Yet the problem is that, HCI core may not free the skb after handling ACL data packets. To be more specific, when start fragment does not contain the L2CAP length, HCI core just copies skb into conn->rx_skb and finishes frame process in l2cap_recv_acldata(), without freeing the skb, which triggers the above memory leak. This patch solves it by releasing the relative skb, after processing the above case in l2cap_recv_acldata().Show less
