Descriptions
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nouveau/dmem: Fix vulnerability in migrate_to_ram upon copy error The `nouveau_dmem_copy_one` function ensures that the copy push command is
sent to the device firmware but does not track whether it was executed
successfully. In the case of a copy error (e.g., firmware or hardware failure), the
copy push command will be sent via the firmware channel, and
`nouveau_dmem_copy_one` will likely report success, leading to the
`migrate_to_ram` function returning a dirty HIGH_USER page to the user. This can result in a security vulnerability, as a HIGH_USER page that may
contain sensitive or corrupted data could be returned to the user. To prevent this vulnerability, we allocate a zero page. Thus, in case of
an error, a non-dirty (zero) page will be returned to the user.
En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: nouveau/dmem: Se corrige la vulnerabilidad en migrants_to_ram tras un error de copia. La función `nouveau_dmem_copy_one` garantiza que el comando de copia push se envíe al firmware del dispositivo, pero no rastrea si se ejecutó correctamente. En el caso de un error de copia (por ejemplo, fallo del firmware o hardware), el comando de copia push se enviará a través del canal de firmware y `nouveau_dmem_copy_one` probablemente informará el éxito, lo que llevará a la función `migrate_to_ram` a devolver una página HIGH_USER sucia al usuario. Esto puede resultar en una vulnerabilidad de seguridad, ya que una página HIGH_USER que puede contener datos confidenciales o dañados podría devolverse al usuario. Para evitar esta vulnerabilidad, asignamos una página cero. Por lo tanto, en caso de un error, se devolverá al usuario una página no sucia (cero).

Michael Randrianantenaina discovered that the Bluetooth driver in the Linux Kernel contained an improper access control vulnerability. A nearby attacker could use this to connect a rougue device and possibly execute arbitrary code. Attila Szász discovered that the HFS+ file system implementation in the Linux Kernel contained a heap overflow vulnerability. An attacker could use a specially crafted file system image that, when mounted, could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.
