Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drivers/amd/pm: fix a use-after-free in kv_parse_power_table When ps allocated by kzalloc equals to NULL, kv_parse_power_table
frees adev->pm.dpm.ps that allocated before. However, after the control
flow goes through the following call chains: kv_parse_power_table |-> kv_dpm_init |-> kv_dpm_sw_init |-> kv_dpm_fini The adev->pm.dpm.ps is used in the for loop of kv_dpm_fini after its
first free in kv_parse_power_table and causes a use-after-free bug.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: drivers/amd/pm: corrige un use-after-free en kv_parse_power_table Cuando ps asignado por kzalloc es igual a NULL, kv_parse_power_table libera adev->pm.dpm.ps que se asignó antes. Sin embargo, después de que el flujo de control pasa por las siguientes cadenas de llamadas: kv_parse_power_table |-> kv_dpm_init |-> kv_dpm_sw_init |-> kv_dpm_fini El adev->pm.dpm.ps se usa en el bucle for de kv_dpm_fini después de su primera liberación en kv_parse_power_table y provoca un error de use-after-free.

A use-after-free flaw was found in kv_parse_power_table in drivers/amd/pm in the Linux kernel. When ps equals NULL, kv_parse_power_table frees adev->pm.dpm.ps. The adev->pm.dpm.ps is used in the loop of kv_dpm_fini after its first free in kv_parse_power_table, causing a use-after-free problem.

Alon Zahavi discovered that the NVMe-oF/TCP subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly validate H2C PDU data, leading to a null pointer dereference vulnerability. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Sander Wiebing, Alvise de Faveri Tron, Herbert Bos, and Cristiano Giuffrida discovered that the Linux kernel mitigations for the initial Branch History Injection vulnerability were insufficient for Intel processors. A local attacker could potentially use this to expose sensitive information.
