CVE-2024-40912 – wifi: mac80211: Fix deadlock in ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup()
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2024-40912
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mac80211: Fix deadlock in ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup() The ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup() function takes sta->ps_lock to synchronizes with ieee80211_tx_h_unicast_ps_buf() which is called from softirq context. However using only spin_lock() to get sta->ps_lock in ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup() does not prevent softirq to execute on this same CPU, to run ieee80211_tx_h_unicast_ps_buf() and try to take this same lock ending in deadlock. Below is an example of rcu stall that arises in such situation. rcu: INFO: rcu_sched self-detected stall on CPU rcu: 2-....: (42413413 ticks this GP) idle=b154/1/0x4000000000000000 softirq=1763/1765 fqs=21206996 rcu: (t=42586894 jiffies g=2057 q=362405 ncpus=4) CPU: 2 PID: 719 Comm: wpa_supplicant Tainted: G W 6.4.0-02158-g1b062f552873 #742 Hardware name: RPT (r1) (DT) pstate: 00000005 (nzcv daif -PAN -UAO -TCO -DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--) pc : queued_spin_lock_slowpath+0x58/0x2d0 lr : invoke_tx_handlers_early+0x5b4/0x5c0 sp : ffff00001ef64660 x29: ffff00001ef64660 x28: ffff000009bc1070 x27: ffff000009bc0ad8 x26: ffff000009bc0900 x25: ffff00001ef647a8 x24: 0000000000000000 x23: ffff000009bc0900 x22: ffff000009bc0900 x21: ffff00000ac0e000 x20: ffff00000a279e00 x19: ffff00001ef646e8 x18: 0000000000000000 x17: ffff800016468000 x16: ffff00001ef608c0 x15: 0010533c93f64f80 x14: 0010395c9faa3946 x13: 0000000000000000 x12: 00000000fa83b2da x11: 000000012edeceea x10: ffff0000010fbe00 x9 : 0000000000895440 x8 : 000000000010533c x7 : ffff00000ad8b740 x6 : ffff00000c350880 x5 : 0000000000000007 x4 : 0000000000000001 x3 : 0000000000000000 x2 : 0000000000000000 x1 : 0000000000000001 x0 : ffff00000ac0e0e8 Call trace: queued_spin_lock_slowpath+0x58/0x2d0 ieee80211_tx+0x80/0x12c ieee80211_tx_pending+0x110/0x278 tasklet_action_common.constprop.0+0x10c/0x144 tasklet_action+0x20/0x28 _stext+0x11c/0x284 ____do_softirq+0xc/0x14 call_on_irq_stack+0x24/0x34 do_softirq_own_stack+0x18/0x20 do_softirq+0x74/0x7c __local_bh_enable_ip+0xa0/0xa4 _ieee80211_wake_txqs+0x3b0/0x4b8 __ieee80211_wake_queue+0x12c/0x168 ieee80211_add_pending_skbs+0xec/0x138 ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup+0x2a4/0x480 ieee80211_mps_sta_status_update.part.0+0xd8/0x11c ieee80211_mps_sta_status_update+0x18/0x24 sta_apply_parameters+0x3bc/0x4c0 ieee80211_change_station+0x1b8/0x2dc nl80211_set_station+0x444/0x49c genl_family_rcv_msg_doit.isra.0+0xa4/0xfc genl_rcv_msg+0x1b0/0x244 netlink_rcv_skb+0x38/0x10c genl_rcv+0x34/0x48 netlink_unicast+0x254/0x2bc netlink_sendmsg+0x190/0x3b4 ____sys_sendmsg+0x1e8/0x218 ___sys_sendmsg+0x68/0x8c __sys_sendmsg+0x44/0x84 __arm64_sys_sendmsg+0x20/0x28 do_el0_svc+0x6c/0xe8 el0_svc+0x14/0x48 el0t_64_sync_handler+0xb0/0xb4 el0t_64_sync+0x14c/0x150 Using spin_lock_bh()/spin_unlock_bh() instead prevents softirq to raise on the same CPU that is holding the lock. • https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1d147bfa64293b2723c4fec50922168658e613ba https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ad64b463d919a18be70b281efb135231169caf4a https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/46a5a5493360f995b834eb3b828eb59da4604509 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a7ee1a84a81555b19ec3d02f104bfd70cf0b668a https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/58d4310586466840dab77e56e53f4508853a5268 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/fcb6d3c79824d350893edfa7b50d6ba1f670c4ec https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e51637e0c66a6f72d134d9f95daa47ea62b43c7e https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/28ba44d680a30c51cf485a2f5a3b680e6 • CWE-833: Deadlock •

CVE-2024-40910 – ax25: Fix refcount imbalance on inbound connections
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2024-40910
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ax25: Fix refcount imbalance on inbound connections When releasing a socket in ax25_release(), we call netdev_put() to decrease the refcount on the associated ax.25 device. However, the execution path for accepting an incoming connection never calls netdev_hold(). This imbalance leads to refcount errors, and ultimately to kernel crashes. A typical call trace for the above situation will start with one of the following errors: refcount_t: decrement hit 0; leaking memory. refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free. And will then have a trace like: Call Trace: <TASK> ? show_regs+0x64/0x70 ? __warn+0x83/0x120 ? • https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9fd75b66b8f68498454d685dc4ba13192ae069b0 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c44a453ffe16eb08acdc6129ac4fa0192dbc0456 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/de55a1338e6a48ff1e41ea8db1432496fbe2a62b https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9e1e088a57c23251f1cfe9601bbd90ade2ea73b9 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b20a5ab0f5fb175750c6bafd4cf12daccf00c738 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/452ae92b99062d2f6a34324eaf705a3b7eac9f8b https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/534156dd4ed768e30a43de0036f45dca7c54818f https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f4df9d6c8d4e4c818252b0419c2165d66 •

In any case, the best approach for preventing these lockups and to avoid spamming the log with thousands of error messages per second is to ratelimit the two dev_err() calls. Therefore we replace them with dev_err_ratelimited(). • https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9908a32e94de2141463e104c9924279ed3509447 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/217d1f44fff560b3995a685a60aa66e55a7f0f56 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/05b2cd6d33f700597e6f081b53c668a226a96d28 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c0747d76eb05542b5d49f67069b64ef5ff732c6c https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/53250b54c92fe087fd4b0c48f85529efe1ebd879 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/02a4c0499fc3a02e992b4c69a9809912af372d94 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/72a3fe36cf9f0d030865e571f45a40f9c1e07e8a https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/82075aff7ffccb1e72b0ac8aa349e4736 • CWE-667: Improper Locking •
