CVE-2024-49960 – ext4: fix timer use-after-free on failed mount
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2024-49960
21 Oct 2024 — In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: fix timer use-after-free on failed mount Syzbot has found an ODEBUG bug in ext4_fill_super The del_timer_sync function cancels the s_err_report timer, which reminds about filesystem errors daily. We should guarantee the timer is no longer active before kfree(sbi). When filesystem mounting fails, the flow goes to failed_mount3, where an error occurs when ext4_stop_mmpd is called, causing a read I/O failure. This triggers the ext4_h... • https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/cf3196e5e2f36cd80dab91ffae402e13935724bc •
CVE-2024-49959 – jbd2: stop waiting for space when jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail() returns error
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2024-49959
21 Oct 2024 — In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: jbd2: stop waiting for space when jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail() returns error In __jbd2_log_wait_for_space(), we might call jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail() to recover some journal space. But if an error occurs while executing jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail() (e.g., an EIO), we don't stop waiting for free space right away, we try other branches, and if j_committing_transaction is NULL (i.e., the tid is 0), we will get the following complain: =======... • https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8c3f25d8950c3e9fe6c9849f88679b3f2a071550 •
CVE-2024-49958 – ocfs2: reserve space for inline xattr before attaching reflink tree

21 Oct 2024 — In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ocfs2: reserve space for inline xattr before attaching reflink tree One of our customers reported a crash and a corrupted ocfs2 filesystem. The crash was due to the detection of corruption. Upon troubleshooting, the fsck -fn output showed the below corruption [EXTENT_LIST_FREE] Extent list in owner 33080590 claims 230 as the next free chain record, but fsck believes the largest valid value is 227.

CVE-2024-49957 – ocfs2: fix null-ptr-deref when journal load failed.

21 Oct 2024 — In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ocfs2: fix null-ptr-deref when journal load failed. During the mounting process, if journal_reset() fails because of too short journal, then lead to jbd2_journal_load() fails with NULL j_sb_buffer. Subsequently, ocfs2_journal_shutdown() calls jbd2_journal_flush()->jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail()-> __jbd2_update_log_tail()->jbd2_journal_update_sb_log_tail() ->lock_buffer(journal->j_sb_buffer), resulting in a null-pointer dereference error.

CVE-2024-49944 – sctp: set sk_state back to CLOSED if autobind fails in sctp_listen_start

21 Oct 2024 — In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sctp: set sk_state back to CLOSED if autobind fails in sctp_listen_start In sctp_listen_start() invoked by sctp_inet_listen(), it should set the sk_state back to CLOSED if sctp_autobind() fails due to whatever reason. Otherwise, next time when calling sctp_inet_listen(), if sctp_sk(sk)->reuse is already set via setsockopt(SCTP_REUSE_PORT), sctp_sk(sk)->bind_hash will be dereferenced as sk_state is LISTENING, which causes a crash as bind_... • https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5e8f3f703ae4e4af65e2695e486b3cd198328863 •
CVE-2024-49940 – l2tp: prevent possible tunnel refcount underflow
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2024-49940
21 Oct 2024 — In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: l2tp: prevent possible tunnel refcount underflow When a session is created, it sets a backpointer to its tunnel. When the session refcount drops to 0, l2tp_session_free drops the tunnel refcount if session->tunnel is non-NULL. However, session->tunnel is set in l2tp_session_create, before the tunnel refcount is incremented by l2tp_session_register, which leaves a small window where session->tunnel is non-NULL when the tunnel refcount hasn... • https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f7415e60c25a6108cd7955a20b2e66b6251ffe02 •

21 Oct 2024 — In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ath9k_htc: Use __skb_set_length() for resetting urb before resubmit Syzbot points out that skb_trim() has a sanity check on the existing length of the skb, which can be uninitialised in some error paths. The intent here is clearly just to reset the length to zero before resubmitting, so switch to calling __skb_set_length(skb, 0) directly. In addition, __skb_set_length() already contains a call to skb_reset_tail_pointer(), so remove ... • https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e6b9bf32e0695e4f374674002de0527d2a6768eb •
