CVE-2021-47212 — net/mlx5: Update error handler for UCTX and UMEM

Affected: Linux

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

net/mlx5: Update error handler for UCTX and UMEM

In the fast unload flow, the device state is set to internal error, which indicates that the driver started the destroy process. In this case, when a destroy command is being executed, it should return MLX5_CMD_STAT_OK. Fix MLX5_CMD_OP_DESTROY_UCTX and MLX5_CMD_OP_DESTROY_UMEM to return OK instead of EIO.

This fixes a call trace in the umem release process - [ 2633.536695] Call Trace: [ 2633.537518] ib_uverbs_remove_one+0xc3/0x140 [ib_uverbs] [ 2633.538596] remove_client_context+0x8b/0xd0 [ib_core] [ 2633.539641] disable_device+0x8c/0x130 [ib_core] [ 2633.540615] __ib_unregister_device+0x35/0xa0 [ib_core] [ 2633.541640] ib_unregister_device+0x21/0x30 [ib_core] [ 2633.542663] __mlx5_ib_remove+0x38/0x90 [mlx5_ib] [ 2633.543640] auxiliary_bus_remove+0x1e/0x30 [auxiliary] [ 2633.544661] device_release_driver_internal+0x103/0x1f0 [ 2633.545679] bus_remove_device+0xf7/0x170 [ 2633.546640] device_del+0x181/0x410 [ 2633.547606] mlx5_rescan_drivers_locked.part.10+0x63/0x160 [mlx5_core] [ 2633.548777] mlx5_unregister_device+0x27/0x40 [mlx5_core] [ 2633.549841] mlx5_uninit_one+0x21/0xc0 [mlx5_core] [ 2633.550864] remove_one+0x69/0xe0 [mlx5_core] [ 2633.551819] pci_device_remove+0x3b/0xc0 [ 2633.552731] device_release_driver_internal+0x103/0x1f0 [ 2633.553746] unbind_store+0xf6/0x130 [ 2633.554657] kernfs_fop_write+0x116/0x190 [ 2633.555567] vfs_writ…

Ziming Zhang discovered that the VMware Virtual GPU DRM driver in the Linux kernel contained an integer overflow vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2022-36402)

Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems: - ARM64 architecture; - PowerPC architecture; - User-Mode Linux (UML); - x86 architecture; - Block layer subsystem; - Cryptographic API; - Android drivers; - Serial ATA and Parallel ATA drivers; - ATM drivers; - Drivers core; - CPU frequency scaling framework; - Device frequency scaling framework; - GPU drivers; - HID subsystem; - Hardware monitoring drivers; - InfiniBand drivers; - Input Device core drivers; - IOMMU subsystem; - IRQ chip drivers; - ISDN/mISDN subsystem; - LED subsystem; - Multiple devices driver; - Media drivers; - EEPROM drivers; - VMware VMCI Driver; - MMC subsystem; - Network drivers; - Near Field Communication (NFC) drivers; - NVME drivers; - Device tree and open firmware driver; - Parport drivers; - PCI subsystem; - Pin controllers subsystem; - Remote Processor subsystem; - S/390 drivers; - SCSI drivers; - QCOM SoC drivers; - Direct Digital Synthesis drivers; - TTY drivers; - Userspace I/O drivers; - DesignWare USB3 driver; - USB subsystem; - BTRFS file system; - File sy…
