In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ax25: Fix refcount imbalance on inbound connections
When releasing a socket in ax25_release(), we call netdev_put() to
decrease the refcount on the associated ax.25 device. However, the
execution path for accepting an incoming connection never calls
netdev_hold(). This imbalance leads to refcount errors, and ultimately
to kernel crashes.
A typical call trace for the above situation will start with one of the
following errors:
refcount_t: decrement hit 0; leaking memory.
refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.
And will then have a trace like:
Call Trace:
? show_regs+0x64/0x70
? __warn+0x83/0x120
? refcount_warn_saturate+0xb2/0x100
? report_bug+0x158/0x190
? prb_read_valid+0x20/0x30
? handle_bug+0x3e/0x70
? exc_invalid_op+0x1c/0x70
? asm_exc_invalid_op+0x1f/0x30
? refcount_warn_saturate+0xb2/0x100
? refcount_warn_saturate+0xb2/0x100
ax25_release+0x2ad/0x360
__sock_release+0x35/0xa0
sock_close+0x19/0x20
[...]
On reboot (or any attempt to remove the interface), the kernel gets
stuck in an infinite loop:
unregister_netdevice: waiting for ax0 to become free. Usage count = 0
This patch corrects these issues by ensuring that we call netdev_hold()
and ax25_dev_hold() for new connections in ax25_accept(). This makes the
logic leading to ax25_accept() match the logic for ax25_bind(): in both
cases we increment the refcount, which is ultimately decremented in
ax25_release().

CVE-2024-40910 [MEDIUM] CWE-911 kernel: ax25: Fix refcount imbalance on inbound connections
kernel: ax25: Fix refcount imbalance on inbound connections
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ax25: Fix refcount imbalance on inbound connections
When releasing a socket in ax25_release(), we call netdev_put() to
decrease the refcount on the associated ax.25 device. However, the
execution path for accepting an incoming connection never calls
netdev_hold(). This imbalance leads to refcount errors, and ultimately
to kernel crashes.
A typical call trace for the above situation will start with one of the
following errors:
refcount_t: decrement hit 0; leaking memory.
refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.
And will then have a trace like:
Call Trace:
? show_regs+0x64/0x70
? __warn+0x83/0x120
? refcount_warn_saturate+0xb2/0x100

linux, linux-aws, linux-gcp, linux-gke, linux-ibm, linux-lowlatency, linux-oem-6.8, linux-oracle vulnerabilities
Chenyuan Yang discovered that the CEC driver driver in the Linux kernel
contained a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this
to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary
code. (CVE-2024-23848)
It was discovered that the JFS file system contained an out-of-bounds read
vulnerability when printing xattr debug information. A local attacker could
use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2024-40902)
Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel.
An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems:
- ARM64 architecture;
- MIPS architectu

CVE-2024-40910 [MEDIUM] CVE-2024-40910: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ax25: Fix refcount imbalance on inbound connections When releasing a socket in ax2
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ax25: Fix refcount imbalance on inbound connections When releasing a socket in ax25_release(), we call netdev_put() to decrease the refcount on the associated ax.25 device. However, the execution path for accepting an incoming connection never calls netdev_hold(). This imbalance leads to refcount errors, and ultimately to kernel crashes. A typical call trace for the above situation will start with one of the following errors: refcount_t: decrement hit 0; leaking memory. refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free. And will then have a trace like: Call Trace: ? show_regs+0x64/0x70 ? __warn+0x83/0x120 ? refcount_warn_saturate+0xb2/0x100 ? report_bug+0x158/0x190 ? prb_read_valid+0x20/0x30 ? handle_bug+0x3e/0x70 ? exc_invalid_op+0x1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ax25: Fix refcount imbalance on inbound connections
When releasing a socket in ax25_release(), we call netdev_put() to
