Уязвимость модулей ядра Linux Astra Modules связана с недостаточной блокировкой ресурсов. Эксплуатация уязвимости может позволить нарушителю вызвать отказ в обслуживании...

PT-2024-14635

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel affected versions not specified Description The issue is related to the ocfs2 file system in the Linux kernel. The VFS does not lock a moved directory if its parent does not change, which can lead to file system corruption if the...

PT-2024-14636

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel affected versions not specified Description The issue is related to the reiserfs file system in the Linux kernel. The VFS does not lock a moved directory if its parent does not change. To address this, the reiserfs rename code has...

kernel: char: tpm: Protect tpm_pm_suspend with locks

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: char: tpm: Protect tpmpmsuspend with locks Currently tpm transactions are executed unconditionally in tpmpmsuspend function, which may lead to races with other tpm accessors in the system. Specifically, the hwrandom tpm driver...

kernel: vmwgfx: race condition leading to information disclosure vulnerability

A race condition vulnerability was found in the vmwgfx driver in the Linux kernel. The flaw exists within the handling of GEM objects. The issue results from improper locking when performing operations on an object. This flaw allows a local privileged user to disclose information in the context o...

kernel: ASoC: soc-compress: Reposition and add pcm_mutex

A locking issue was found in the ASoC ALSA SoC compressed audio subsystem in the Linux kernel. When DPCM Dynamic PCM compressed streams are started, several functions access resources without properly holding the card-pcmmutex lock. This triggers lock assertion warnings and can cause kernel panic...

The issue results from improper locking when performing operations on an object. This flaw allows a local privileged user to disclose information in the context o...

kernel: A possible deadlock in dm_get_inactive_table in dm- ioctl.c leads to dos

A flaw was found in the Linux Kernel, leading to a denial of service. This issue occurs due to a possible recursive locking scenario, resulting in a deadlock in tableclear in drivers/md/dm-ioctl.c in the Linux Kernel Device Mapper-Multipathing sub-component...

mariadb: improper locking due to the unreleased lock in extra/mariabackup/ds_compress.cc

MariaDB Server before 10.7 is vulnerable to Denial of Service. In extra/mariabackup/dscompress.cc, when an error occurs i.e., going to the err label while executing the method createworkerthreads, the held lock thd-ctrlmutex is not released correctly, which allows local users to trigger a denial ...

mariadb: improper locking due to the unreleased lock in extra/mariabackup/ds_compress.cc

MariaDB Server before 10.7 is vulnerable to Denial of Service. In extra/mariabackup/dscompress.cc, when an error occurs pthreadcreate returns a nonzero value while executing the method createworkerthreads, the held lock is not released correctly, which allows local users to trigger a denial of...

mariadb: improper locking due to unreleased lock in the ds_xbstream.cc

MariaDB Server before 10.7 is vulnerable to Denial of Service. In extra/mariabackup/dsxbstream.cc, when an error occurs streamctxt-destfile == NULL while executing the method xbstreamopen, the held lock is not released correctly, which allows local users to trigger a denial of service due to the...

mariadb: DoS due to improper locking due to unreleased lock in plugin/server_audit/server_audit.c

MariaDB Server before 10.7 is vulnerable to Denial of Service. While executing the plugin/serveraudit/serveraudit.c method logstatementex, the held lock lockbigbuffer is not released correctly, which allows local users to trigger a denial of service due to the deadlock...

libvirt: improper locking in virStoragePoolObjListSearch may lead to denial of service

A flaw was found in libvirt. The virStoragePoolObjListSearch function does not return a locked pool as expected, resulting in a race condition and denial of service when attempting to lock the same object from another thread. This issue could allow clients connecting to the read-only socket to...
