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

netfilter: ctnetlink: fix refcount leak on table dump

There is a reference count leak in ctnetlink_dump_table(): if (res < 0) { nf_conntrack_get(&ct->ct_general); // HERE cb->args[1] = (unsigned long)ct; ...

While its very unlikely, its possible that ct == last. If this happens, then the refcount of ct was already incremented. This 2nd increment is never undone.

This prevents the conntrack object from being released, which in turn keeps prevents cnet->count from dropping back to 0.

This will then block the netns dismantle (or conntrack rmmod) as nf_conntrack_cleanup_net_list() will wait forever.

This can be reproduced by running conntrack_resize.sh selftest in a loop. It takes ~20 minutes for me on a preemptible kernel on average before I see a runaway kworker spinning in nf_conntrack_cleanup_net_list.

One fix would to change this to: if (res < 0) { if (ct != last) nf_conntrack_get(&ct->ct_general);

But this reference counting isn't needed in the first place. We can just store a cookie value instead.

A followup patch will do the same for ctnetlink_exp_dump_table, it looks to me as if this has the same problem and like ctnetlink_dump_table, we only need a 'skip hint', not the actual object so we can apply the same cookie strategy there as well.

sshd in OpenSSH 6.2 through 8.x before 8.8, when certain non-default configurations are used, allows privilege escalation because supplemental groups are not initialized as expected. Helper programs for AuthorizedKeysCommand and AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand may run with privileges associated with group memberships of the sshd process, if the configuration specifies running the command as a different user. A flaw was found in glibc. When the getaddrinfo function is called with the AF_UNSPEC address family and the system is configured with no-aaaa mode via /etc/resolv.conf, a DNS response via TCP larger than 2048 bytes can potentially disclose stack contents through the function returned address data, and may cause a crash. A flaw was found in glibc. In an extremely rare situation, the getaddrinfo function may access memory that has been freed, resulting in an application crash. This issue is only exploitable when a NSS module implements only the _nss_*_gethostbyname2_r and _nss_*_getcanonname_r hooks without implementing the _nss_*_gethostbyname3_r hook. The resolved name should return a large number of IPv6 and IPv4, and the call to the getaddrinfo function should have the AF_INET6 address family with AI_CANONNAME, AI_ALL and AI_V4MAPPED as flags. A buffer overflow was discovered in the GNU C Library's dynamic loader ld.so while processing the GLIBC_TUNABLES environment variable. This issue could allow a local attacker to use maliciously crafted GLIBC_TUNABLES environment var…

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 MMWe currently assume that there is at least one VMA in a MM, which isn ttrue.So we might end up having find_vma() return NULL, to then de-referenceNULL. So properly handle find_vma() returning NULL.This fixes the report:Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000000: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTIKASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000000007]CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 6021 Comm: syz-executor284 Not tainted 6.12.0-rc7-syzkaller-00187-gf868cd251776 #0Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 10/30/2024RIP: 0010:migrate_to_node mm/mempolicy.c:1090 [inline]RIP: 0010:do_migrate_pages+0x403/0x6f0 mm/mempolicy.c:1194Code: ...RSP: 0018:ffffc9000375fd08 EFLAGS: 00010246RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: ffffc9000375fd78 RCX: 0000000000000000RDX: ffff88807e171300 RSI: dffffc0000000000 RDI: ffff88803390c044RBP: ffff88807e171428 R08: 0000000000000014 R09: fffffbfff2039ef1R10: ffffffff901cf78f R11: 0000000000000000 R12: 0000000000000003R13: ffffc9000375fe90 R14: ffffc9000375fe98 R15: ffffc9000375fdf8FS: 00005555919e1380(0000) GS:ffff8880b8700000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033CR2: 00005555919e1ca8 CR3: 000000007f12a000 CR4: 00000000003526f0DR0…

Security update for the Linux Kernel

Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in the additional GNU/Linux subsystem of the firmware version V3.1.6 for the SIMATIC S7-1500 CPU 1518(F)-4 PN/DP MFP (incl. SIPLUS variant).

Siemens has released new versions for several affected products and recommends to update to the latest versions. Siemens is preparing further fix versions and recommends specific countermeasures for products where fixes are not, or not yet available.
