CVE-2024-44984

A flaw was found in the bnxt_en module in the Linux kernel. A double DMA unmapping can trigger a kernel warning and cause a denial of service.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bnxt_en: Fix double DMA unmapping for XDP_REDIRECT Remove the dma_unmap_page_attrs() call in the driver's XDP_REDIRECT code path. This should have been removed when we let the page pool handle the DMA mapping. This bug causes the warning: WARNING: CPU: 7 PID: 59 at drivers/iommu/dma-iommu.c:1198 iommu_dma_unmap_page+0xd5/0x100 CPU: 7 PID: 59 Comm: ksoftirqd/7 Tainted: G W 6.8.0-1010-gcp #11-Ubuntu Hardware name: Dell Inc.

Chenyuan Yang discovered that the USB Gadget subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly check for the device to be enabled before writing. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service. Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
