CVE-2024-56676

CVE-2024-56676 affects the Linux kernel, specifically in the thermal testing code. The issue arises when variables annotated with __free() are not initialized if the function can return before they are updated for the first time; upon function return, freeing these uninitialized pointers may cras...

Linux kernel 安全漏洞

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 originates from a variable marked free in the thermal:testing module not being initialized before the function returns,...

CBL Mariner 2.0 Security Update: kernel (CVE-2024-50093)

The version of kernel installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2024-50093 advisory. - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: thermal: intel: int340x: processor: Fix...

kernel: hwmon: (mlxreg-fan) Return non-zero value when fan current state is enforced from sysfs

A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's hwmon subsystem, specifically in the mlxreg-fan driver. The issue arises when the driver’s sysfs interface for controlling fan speed does not properly handle cases where the requested minimum fan speed exceeds the maximum allowable value. When the...

Vulnerability of components such as thermal controllers, mediatek, and lvts_thermal in Linux kernel, allowing a hacker to trigger a service failure

The vulnerability of the thermal/drivers/mediatek/lvtsthermal components of the Linux operating system is related to a memory leak in the lvtscalibrationread function. Exploiting this vulnerability can allow an attacker to cause a system failure...

kernel: NULL pointer dereference in zone registration error path

is a security vulnerability in the Linux kernel, specifically within the thermal management subsystem. This vulnerability is a NULL pointer dereference that occurs in the thermalzonedeviceregisterwithtrips function during the thermal zone registration error path. This issue can cause crashes and...

kernel: thermal/int340x_thermal: handle data_vault when the value is ZERO_SIZE_PTR

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in the thermal/int340xthermal driver. This issue occurs when the Global Device Data Vault GDDV returns a zero-length buffer, causing the kmemdup function to return a ZEROSIZEPTR 0x10, leading to a NULL pointer dereference in datavaultread, potentially causing ...

kernel: thermal/debugfs: Free all thermal zone debug memory on zone removal

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: thermal/debugfs: Free all thermal zone debug memory on zone removal Because thermaldebugtzremove does not free all memory allocated for thermal zone diagnostics, some of that memory becomes unreachable after freeing the thermal...

kernel: thermal: of: fix double-free on unregistration

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's thermal subsystem. A double-free vulnerability occurs during thermal zone device unregistration when using device tree OF bindings. The thermalofzoneregister function leaks the original tzp structure and double-frees the internal copy, which can lead to memo...

kernel: thermal: intel: hfi: Add syscore callbacks for system-wide PM

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: thermal: intel: hfi: Add syscore callbacks for system-wide PM The kernel allocates a memory buffer and provides its location to the hardware, which uses it to update the HFI table. This allocation occurs during boot and remains...

kernel: thermal: intel: quark_dts: fix error pointer dereference

An error pointer dereference was found in the Intel Quark thermal driver. When allocsocdts fails and returns an error pointer, attempting to free it causes a kernel crash...

kernel: thermal/debugfs: Prevent use-after-free from occurring after cdev removal

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: thermal/debugfs: Prevent use-after-free from occurring after cdev removal Since thermaldebugcdevremove does not run under cdev-lock, it can run in parallel with thermaldebugcdevstateupdate and it may free the struct thermaldebugf...

kernel: thermal/debugfs: Fix two locking issues with thermal zone debug

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: thermal/debugfs: Fix two locking issues with thermal zone debug With the current thermal zone locking arrangement in the debugfs code, user space can open the "mitigations" file for a thermal zone before the zone's debugfs pointe...
