In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: fix race between quota rescan and disable leading to NULL pointer deref If we have one task trying to start the quota rescan worker while another one is trying to disable quotas, we can end up hitting a race that results in the quota rescan worker doing a NULL pointer dereference. The steps for this are the following: 1) Quotas are enabled; 2) Task A calls the quota rescan ioctl and enters btrfs_qgroup_rescan(). It calls qgroup_rescan_init() which returns 0 (success) and then joins a transaction and commits it; 3) Task B calls the quota disable ioctl and enters btrfs_quota_disable(). It clears the bit BTRFS_FS_QUOTA_ENABLED from fs_info->flags and calls btrfs_qgroup_wait_for_completion(), which returns immediately since the rescan worker is not yet running. Then it starts a transaction and locks fs_info->qgroup_ioctl_lock; 4) Task A queues the rescan worker, by calling btrfs_queue_work(); 5) The rescan worker starts, and calls rescan_should_stop() at the start of its while loop, which results in 0 iterations of the loop, since the flag BTRFS_FS_QUOTA_ENABLED was cleared from fs_info->flags by task B at step 3); 6) Task B sets fs_info->quota_root to NULL; 7) The rescan worker tries to start a transaction and uses fs_info->quota_root as the root argument for btrfs_start_transaction(). This results in a NULL pointer dereference down the call chain of btrfs_start_transaction().

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    dm integrity: Fix UAF in dm_integrity_dtr() (CVE-2022-50889)

    The Linux kernel does not correctly mitigate SMT attacks, as discovered through a strange pattern in the     kernel API using STIBP as a mitigation, leaving the process exposed for a short period of time after a     syscall. The kernel also does not issue an IBPB immediately during the syscall. (CVE-2023-0045)

    A buffer overflow vulnerability was found in the Netfilter subsystem in the Linux Kernel. This issue could     allow the leakage of both stack and heap addresses, and potentially allow Local Privilege Escalation to     the root user via arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2023-0179)

    A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in rawv6_push_pending_frames in net/ipv6/raw.c in the network     subcomponent in the Linux kernel. This flaw causes the system to crash. (CVE-2023-0394)

    Detected a few exploitable gadgets that could leak secret memory through a side-channel such as MDS as     well as insufficient hardening of the usercopy functions against spectre-v1. (CVE-2023-0459)

    There is a use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux Kernel which can be exploited to achieve local     privilege escalation. To reach the vulnerability kernel configuration flag CONFIG_TLS or     CONFIG_XFRM_ESPINTCP has to be configured, but the operation does not require any privilege.

    There is a use-after-free bug of icsk_ulp_data of a struct inet_connection_sock.

    When CONFIG_TLS is enabled, user can install a tls context (struct tls_context) on a connected tcp socket.
    The context is not cleared if this socket is disconnected and reused as a listener. If a new socket is     created from the listener, the context is inherited and vulnerable.

    The setsockopt TCP_ULP operation does not require any privilege.

    We recommend upgrading past commit 2c02d41d71f90a5168391b6a5f2954112ba2307c (CVE-2023-0461)

    cbq_classify in net/sched/sch_cbq.c in the Linux kernel through 6.1.4 allows attackers to cause a denial     of service (slab-out-of-bounds read) because of type confusion (non-negative numbers can sometimes     indicate a TC_ACT_SHOT condition rather than valid classification results). (CVE-2023-23454)

    atm_tc_enqueue in net/sched/sch_atm.c in the Linux kernel through 6.1.4 allows attackers to cause a denial     of service because of type confusion (non-negative numbers can sometimes indicate a TC_ACT_SHOT condition     rather than valid classification results). (CVE-2023-23455)

    In the Linux kernel 6.0.8, there is a use-after-free in run_unpack in fs/ntfs3/run.c, related to a     difference between NTFS sector size and media sector size. (CVE-2023-26544)
