CVE-2024-38627

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: clase stm: corrige un doble free en stm_register_device() La llamada put_device(&stm->dev) activará stm_device_release() que libera "stm" para que vfree(stm) en el La siguiente línea es un doble libre.

A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's stm class, where an improper memory management sequence in stm_register_device() could lead to a double-free error. This issue occurs when the put_device(&stm->dev) call triggers stm_device_release() to free "stm", making the subsequent vfree(stm) call redundant and potentially harmful.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: stm class: Fix a double free in stm_register_device() The put_device(&stm->dev) call will trigger stm_device_release() which frees "stm" so the vfree(stm) on the next line is a double free.

Ziming Zhang discovered that the DRM driver for VMware Virtual GPU did not properly handle certain error conditions, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. A local attacker could possibly trigger this vulnerability to cause a denial of service. Gui-Dong Han discovered that the software RAID driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition, leading to an integer overflow vulnerability. A privileged attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service.
