Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bus: mhi: host: Add alignment check for event ring read pointer Though we do check the event ring read pointer by "is_valid_ring_ptr"
to make sure it is in the buffer range, but there is another risk the
pointer may be not aligned. Since we are expecting event ring elements
are 128 bits(struct mhi_ring_element) aligned, an unaligned read pointer
could lead to multiple issues like DoS or ring buffer memory corruption. So add a alignment check for event ring read pointer.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: bus: mhi: host: agregar verificación de alineación para el puntero de lectura del anillo de eventos. Aunque verificamos el puntero de lectura del anillo de eventos mediante "is_valid_ring_ptr" para asegurarnos de que esté en el rango del búfer, pero existe otro riesgo de que el puntero no esté alineado. Dado que esperamos que los elementos del anillo de eventos estén alineados con 128 bits (struct mhi_ring_element), un puntero de lectura no alineado podría provocar múltiples problemas como DoS o corrupción de la memoria del búfer del anillo. Por lo tanto, agregue una verificación de alineación para el puntero de lectura del anillo de eventos.

Zheng Wang discovered that the Broadcom FullMAC WLAN driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition during device removal, leading to a use- after-free vulnerability. A physically proximate attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service. It was discovered that the Open vSwitch implementation in the Linux kernel could overflow its stack during recursive action operations under certain conditions. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.
