CVE-2024-57926

CVE-2024-57926 is a Linux kernel vulnerability affecting the Mediatek DRM path. The issue arises in the shutdown path where private->all_drm_private[i]->drm may be accessed after a failed mtk_drm_bind, causing a use-after-free detected by KASAN in drm_atomic_helper_shutdown. The root cause ...

AZL-68570 CVE-2024-57875 affecting package kernel 5.15.200.1-1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: block: RCU protect disk-convzonesbitmap Ensure that a disk revalidation changing the conventional zones bitmap of a disk does not cause invalid memory references when using the diskzoneisconv helper by RCU protecting the...

GHSA-GV7F-5QQH-VXFX xous has unsound usages of `core::slice::from_raw_parts`

We consider asslice and asslicemut unsound because: the pointer with any bit patterns could be cast to the slice of arbitrary types. The pointer could be created by unsafe new and deprecated fromparts. We consider that fromparts should be removed in latest version because it will help trigger...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: PCI: endpoint: epf-mhi: Avoid NULL dereference if DT lacks 'mmio' If platformgetresourcebyname fails and returns NULL because DT lacks an 'mmio' property for the MHI endpoint, dereferencing res-start will cause a NULL pointer...

Undefined behaviour in `kvm_ioctls::ioctls::vm::VmFd::create_device`

An issue was identified in the VmFd::createdevice function, leading to undefined behavior and miscompilations on rustc 1.82.0 and newer due to the function's violation of Rust's pointer safety rules. The function downcasted a mutable reference to its struct kvmcreatedevice argument to an immutabl...

Linux Kernel Security Vulnerabilities

Linux kernel is the kernel used by Linux, the open source operating system of the Linux Foundation in the United States. A security vulnerability exists in the Linux kernel that stems from the drm/amd/pm module not ensuring that fwinfo is not NULL before using it...

PT-2024-41432 · Crates.Io · Wasmtime-Jit-Debug

The unsound function dump code load record uses from raw parts to directly convert the pointer addr and len into a slice without any validation and that memory block would be dumped. Thus, the 'safe' function dump code load record is actually 'unsafe' since it requires the caller to guarantee tha...
