Affected: Alpaquita:23: linux-lts, Alpaquita:25: linux-lts, Alpaquita:stream: linux-lts

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

kernfs: Relax constraint in draining guard

The active reference lifecycle provides the break/unbreak mechanism but the active reference is not truly active after unbreak -- callers don't use it afterwards but it's important for proper pairing of kn->active counting. Assuming this mechanism is in place, the WARN check in kernfs_should_drain_open_files() is too sensitive -- it may transiently catch those (rightful) callers between kernfs_unbreak_active_protection() and kernfs_put_active() as found out by Chen Ridong:

kernfs_remove_by_name_ns kernfs_get_active // active=1 __kernfs_remove // active=0x80000002 kernfs_drain ... wait_event //waiting (active == 0x80000001) kernfs_break_active_protection // active = 0x80000001 // continue kernfs_unbreak_active_protection // active = 0x80000002 ... kernfs_should_drain_open_files // warning occurs kernfs_put_active

To avoid the false positives (mind panic_on_warn) remove the check altogether. (This is meant as quick fix, I think active reference break/unbreak may be simplified with larger rework.)

The Linux Kernel, the operating system core itself. Security Fix(es):

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

nfc: nci: Fix uninit-value in nci_rx_work

syzbot reported the following uninit-value access issue [1]

nci_rx_work() parses received packet from ndev->rx_q. It should be validated header size, payload size and total packet size before processing the packet. If an invalid packet is detected, it should be silently discarded.(CVE-2024-38381)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: ti: icssg_prueth: Fix NULL pointer dereference in prueth_probe()In the prueth_probe() function, if one of the calls to emac_phy_connect()fails due to of_phy_connect() returning NULL, then the subsequent call tophy_attached_info() will dereference a NULL pointer.Check the return code of emac_phy_connect and fail cleanly if there is anerror.(CVE-2024-38584)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:cpufreq: exit() callback is optionalThe exit() callback is optional and shouldn t be called without checkinga valid pointer first.Also, we must clear freq_table pointer even if the exit() callback isn tpresent.(CVE-2024-38615)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:serial: max3100: Update uart_driver_registered on driver removalThe removal of the last MAX3100 device triggers the removal ofthe driver. However, code doesn t update the respective globalvariable and after insmod — r…
