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

smb: client: fix crypto buffers in non-linear memory

The crypto API, through the scatterlist API, expects input buffers to be in linear memory. We handle this with the cifs_sg_set_buf() helper that converts vmalloc'd memory to their corresponding pages.

However, when we allocate our aead_request buffer (@creq in smb2ops.c::crypt_message()), we do so with kvzalloc(), which possibly puts aead_request->__ctx in vmalloc area.

AEAD algorithm then uses ->__ctx for its private/internal data and operations, and uses sg_set_buf() for such data on a few places.

This works fine as long as @creq falls into kmalloc zone (small requests) or vmalloc'd memory is still within linear range.

Tasks' stacks are vmalloc'd by default (CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y), so too many tasks will increment the base stacks' addresses to a point where virt_addr_valid(buf) will fail (BUG() in sg_set_buf()) when that happens.

In practice: too many parallel reads and writes on an encrypted mount will trigger this bug.

To fix this, always alloc @creq with kmalloc() instead. Also drop the @sensitive_size variable/arguments since kfree_sensitive() doesn't need it.

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)
