In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: powerpc/kasan: Fix addr error caused by page alignment In kasaninitregion, when kstart is not page aligned, at the begin of for loop, kcur = kstart & PAGEMASK is less than kstart, and then va = block + kcur - kstart is less than...

kernel: powerpc: Fix access beyond end of drmem array

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel, specifically affecting the PowerPC architecture's pseries memory hotplug functionality. The issue arises from the dlparmemoryremovebyindex function, which may access memory beyond the bounds of the drmem logical memory block LMB array when it fails to find a...

A potential stack corruption flaw was found in arch/powerpc/lib/sstep.c in the Linux kernel. This may lead to compromised Confidentiality, Integrity, or Availability...

kernel: powerpc/pseries: Whitelist dtl slub object for copying to userspace

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: powerpc/pseries: Whitelist dtl slub object for copying to userspace Reading the dispatch trace log from /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/dtl/cpu- results in a BUG when the config CONFIGHARDENEDUSERCOPY is enabled as shown below. kernel...

kernel: powerpc/64s/interrupt: Fix interrupt exit race with security mitigation switch

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: powerpc/64s/interrupt: Fix interrupt exit race with security mitigation switch The RFI and STF security mitigation options can flip the interruptexitnotreentrant static branch condition concurrently with the interrupt exit code...

kernel: powerpc/smp: do not decrement idle task preempt count in CPU offline

A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's powerpc/smp architecture, where the idle task's preemption count was incorrectly decremented during the CPU offline process. This issue caused a "scheduling while atomic" error when a CPU was offlined and then onlined again, leading to potential...

kernel: powerpc/pseries: Rework lppaca_shared_proc() to avoid DEBUG_PREEMPT

A debug warning issue was found in PowerPC pseries code. When DEBUGPREEMPT is enabled, accessing lppacasharedproc triggers spurious preemption warnings because it uses smpprocessorid in preemptible context...

kernel: powerpc/pseries/iommu: LPAR panics during boot up with a frozen PE

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: powerpc/pseries/iommu: LPAR panics during boot up with a frozen PE At the time of LPAR boot up, partition firmware provides Open Firmware property ibm,dma-window for the PE. This property is provided on the PCI bus the PE is...

kernel: powerpc/powernv: Add a null pointer check in opal_event_init()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: powerpc/powernv: Add a null pointer check in opaleventinit kasprintf returns a pointer to dynamically allocated memory which can be NULL upon failure...

kernel: powerpc/powernv: Add a null pointer check to scom_debug_init_one()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: powerpc/powernv: Add a null pointer check to scomdebuginitone The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2023-52690 to this issue. Upstream advisory: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-cve-announce/2024051753-CVE-2023-52690-f225@gregk...

kernel: powerpc/64s: fix program check interrupt emergency stack path

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: powerpc/64s: fix program check interrupt emergency stack path Emergency stack path was jumping into a 3: label inside the GENCOMMONBODY macro for the normal path after it had finished, rather than jumping over it. By a small...

kernel: powerpc/powernv: Add a null pointer check in opal_powercap_init()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: powerpc/powernv: Add a null pointer check in opalpowercapinit kasprintf returns a pointer to dynamically allocated memory which can be NULL upon failure...

kernel: powerpc/pseries: Fix potential memleak in papr_get_attr()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A potential memleak in paprgetattr may lead to compromised availability...

kernel: powerpc/64s: Fix unrecoverable MCE calling async handler from NMI

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: powerpc/64s: Fix unrecoverable MCE calling async handler from NMI The machine check handler is not considered NMI on 64s. The early handler is the true NMI handler, and then it schedules the machinecheckexception handler to run...

kernel: powerpc/iommu: Fix notifiers being shared by PCI and VIO buses

A slab-out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's PowerPC IOMMU code. The failiommusetup function registers the same notifierblock structure to both PCI and VIO buses. Since notifierblock is a linked list node, this causes notifiers registered to one bus type to also apply t...

The POLY1305 MAC (message authentication code) implementation contains a bug that might corrupt the internal state of applications running on PowerPC CPU based platforms

OpenSSL contains an issue in the POLY1305 MAC message authentication code implementation that might result in a corrupted internal application state. This flaw is only exploitable on PowerPC CPU based platforms if the CPU provides vector instructions PowerISA 2.07. The impact of the corrupted...
