CVE-2024-45818

The hypervisor contains code to accelerate VGA memory accesses for HVM guests, when the virtual VGA is in "standard" mode. Locking involved there has an unusual discipline, leaving a lock acquired past the return from the function that acquired it. This behavior results in a problem when emulatin...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tty: ttybuffer: Fix the softlockup issue in flushtoldisc When running ltp testcaseltp/testcases/kernel/pty/pty04.c with arm64, there is a soft lockup, which look like this one: Workqueue: eventsunbound flushtoldisc Call trace:...

kernel: net/sched: fix lockdep splat in qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog()

CVE-2024-35892 is a vulnerability in the Linux kernel’s network scheduler caused by improper use of the qdisclookup function. This function assumes the global RTNL lock is held, but in the qdisctreereducebacklog function, only a local queue lock is used. This mismatch creates a race condition tha...

kernel: GSM multiplexing race condition leads to privilege escalation

A race condition was found in the GSM 0710 tty multiplexor in the Linux kernel. This issue occurs when two threads execute the GSMIOCSETCONF ioctl on the same tty file descriptor with the gsm line discipline enabled, and can lead to a use-after-free problem on a struct gsmdlci while restarting th...
