TencentOS Server 4: kernel (TSSA-2025:0215)

high Nessus Plugin ID 239980

Synopsis

The remote TencentOS Server 4 host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 4 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2025:0215 advisory.

Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 4 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

CVE-2024-56569:
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mm/mempolicy: fix migrate_to_node() assuming there is at least one VMA in a MM

We currently assume that there is at least one VMA in a MM, which isn't true.

So we might end up having find_vma() return NULL, to then de-reference NULL. So properly handle find_vma() returning NULL.

This fixes the report:

CVE-2024-56562:
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

kcsan: Turn report_filterlist_lock into a raw_spinlock

Ran Xiaokai reports that with a KCSAN-enabled PREEMPT_RT kernel, we can see splats like:

On a detected data race, KCSAN's reporting logic checks if it should filter the report. That list is protected by the report_filterlist_lock
*non-raw* spinlock which may sleep on RT kernels.

Since KCSAN may report data races in any context, convert it to a raw_spinlock.

This requires being careful about when to allocate memory for the filter list itself which can be done via KCSAN's debugfs interface. Concurrent modification of the filter list via debugfs should be rare: the chosen strategy is to optimistically pre-allocate memory before the critical section and discard if unused.

CVE-2024-56581:
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

af_packet: avoid erroring out after sock_init_data() in packet_create()

After sock_init_data() the allocated sk object is attached to the provided sock object. On error, packet_create() frees the sk object leaving the dangling pointer in the sock object on return. Some other code may try to use this pointer and cause use-after-free.

CVE-2024-56590:
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Bluetooth: L2CAP: do not leave dangling sk pointer on error in l2cap_sock_create()

bt_sock_alloc() allocates the sk object and attaches it to the provided sock object. On error l2cap_sock_alloc() frees the sk object, but the dangling pointer is still attached to the sock object, which may create use-after-free in other code.

CVE-2024-56589:
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Bluetooth: RFCOMM: avoid leaving dangling sk pointer in rfcomm_sock_alloc()

bt_sock_alloc() attaches allocated sk object to the provided sock object.
If rfcomm_dlc_alloc() fails, we release the sk object, but leave the dangling pointer in the sock object, which may cause use-after-free.

Fix this by swapping calls to bt_sock_alloc() and rfcomm_dlc_alloc().

CVE-2024-53690:
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: af_can: do not leave a dangling sk pointer in can_create()

On error can_create() frees the allocated sk object, but sock_init_data() has already attached it to the provided sock object. This will leave a dangling sk pointer in the sock object and may cause use-after-free later.

CVE-2024-53231:
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: ieee802154: do not leave a dangling sk pointer in ieee802154_create()

sock_init_data() attaches the allocated sk object to the provided sock object. If ieee802154_create() fails later, the allocated sk object is freed, but the dangling pointer remains in the provided sock object, which may allow use-after-free.

Clear the sk pointer in the sock object on error.

CVE-2024-56539:
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: inet: do not leave a dangling sk pointer in inet_create()

sock_init_data() attaches the allocated sk object to the provided sock object. If inet_create() fails later, the sk object is freed, but the sock object retains the dangling pointer, which may create use-after-free later.

Clear the sk pointer in the sock object on error.

CVE-2024-56531:
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: inet6: do not leave a dangling sk pointer in inet6_create()

sock_init_data() attaches the allocated sk pointer to the provided sock object. If inet6_create() fails later, the sk object is released, but the sock object retains the dangling sk pointer, which may cause use-after-free later.

Clear the sock sk pointer on error.

CVE-2024-53680:
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

jfs: array-index-out-of-bounds fix in dtReadFirst

The value of stbl can be sometimes out of bounds due to a bad filesystem. Added a check with appopriate return of error code in that case.

CVE-2024-56603:
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

jfs: fix array-index-out-of-bounds in jfs_readdir

The stbl might contain some invalid values. Added a check to return error code in that case.

CVE-2024-56592:
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

jfs: add a check to prevent array-index-out-of-bounds in dbAdjTree

When the value of lp is 0 at the beginning of the for loop, it will become negative in the next assignment and we should bail out.

CVE-2024-56579:
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amdgpu: set the right AMDGPU sg segment limitation

The driver needs to set the correct max_segment_size;
otherwise debug_dma_map_sg() will complain about the over-mapping of the AMDGPU sg length as following:

CVE-2024-56532:
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: brcmfmac: Fix oops due to NULL pointer dereference in brcmf_sdiod_sglist_rw()

This patch fixes a NULL pointer dereference bug in brcmfmac that occurs when a high 'sd_sgentry_align' value applies (e.g. 512) and a lot of queued SKBs are sent from the pkt queue.

The problem is the number of entries in the pre-allocated sgtable, it is nents = max(rxglom_size, txglom_size) + max(rxglom_size, txglom_size) >> 4 + 1.
Given the default [rt]xglom_size=32 it's actually 35 which is too small.
Worst case, the pkt queue can end up with 64 SKBs. This occurs when a new SKB is added for each original SKB if tailroom isn't enough to hold tail_pad.
At least one sg entry is needed for each SKB. So, eventually the skb_queue_walk loop in brcmf_sdiod_sglist_rw may run out of sg entries. This makes sg_next return NULL and this causes the oops.

The patch sets nents to max(rxglom_size, txglom_size) * 2 to be able handle the worst-case.
Btw. this requires only 64-35=29 * 16 (or 20 if CONFIG_NEED_SG_DMA_LENGTH) = 464 additional bytes of memory.

CVE-2024-56369:
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bpf: Call free_htab_elem() after htab_unlock_bucket()

For htab of maps, when the map is removed from the htab, it may hold the last reference of the map. bpf_map_fd_put_ptr() will invoke bpf_map_free_id() to free the id of the removed map element. However, bpf_map_fd_put_ptr() is invoked while holding a bucket lock (raw_spin_lock_t), and bpf_map_free_id() attempts to acquire map_idr_lock (spinlock_t), triggering the following lockdep warning:

============================= [ BUG: Invalid wait context ] 6.11.0-rc4+ #49 Not tainted

One way to fix the lockdep warning is using raw_spinlock_t for map_idr_lock as well. However, bpf_map_alloc_id() invokes idr_alloc_cyclic() after acquiring map_idr_lock, it will trigger a similar lockdep warning because the slab's lock (s->cpu_slab->lock) is still a spinlock.

Instead of changing map_idr_lock's type, fix the issue by invoking htab_put_fd_value() after htab_unlock_bucket(). However, only deferring the invocation of htab_put_fd_value() is not enough, because the old map pointers in htab of maps can not be saved during batched deletion.
Therefore, also defer the invocation of free_htab_elem(), so these to-be-freed elements could be linked together similar to lru map.

There are four callers for ->map_fd_put_ptr:

(1) alloc_htab_elem() (through htab_put_fd_value()) It invokes ->map_fd_put_ptr() under a raw_spinlock_t. The invocation of htab_put_fd_value() can not simply move after htab_unlock_bucket(), because the old element has already been stashed in htab->extra_elems.
It may be reused immediately after htab_unlock_bucket() and the invocation of htab_put_fd_value() after htab_unlock_bucket() may release the newly-added element incorrectly. Therefore, saving the map pointer of the old element for htab of maps before unlocking the bucket and releasing the map_ptr after unlock. Beside the map pointer in the old element, should do the same thing for the special fields in the old element as well.

(2) free_htab_elem() (through htab_put_fd_value()) Its caller includes __htab_map_lookup_and_delete_elem(), htab_map_delete_elem() and __htab_map_lookup_and_delete_batch().

For htab_map_delete_elem(), simply invoke free_htab_elem() after htab_unlock_bucket(). For __htab_map_lookup_and_delete_batch(), just like lru map, linking the to-be-freed element into node_to_free list and invoking free_htab_elem() for these element after unlock. It is safe to reuse batch_flink as the link for node_to_free, because these elements have been removed from the hash llist.

Because htab of maps doesn't support lookup_and_delete operation,
__htab_map_lookup_and_delete_elem() doesn't have the problem, so kept it as

This is because in the hisi_sas driver, both the hardware interrupt handler and the interrupt thread are executed on the same CPU. In the performance test scenario, function irq_wait_for_interrupt() will always return 0 if lots of interrupts occurs and the CPU will be continuously consumed. As a result, the CPU cannot run the watchdog thread. When the watchdog time exceeds the specified time, call trace occurs.

To fix it, add cond_resched() to execute the watchdog thread.

CVE-2024-56601:
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

leds: class: Protect brightness_show() with led_cdev->led_access mutex

There is NULL pointer issue observed if from Process A where hid device being added which results in adding a led_cdev addition and later a another call to access of led_cdev attribute from Process B can result in NULL pointer issue.

Use mutex led_cdev->led_access to protect access to led->cdev and its attribute inside brightness_show() and max_brightness_show() and also update the comment for mutex that it should be used to protect the led class device fields.
