CVE-2024-57798

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/dp_mst: Ensure mst_primary pointer is valid in drm_dp_mst_handle_up_req() While receiving an MST up request message from one thread in drm_dp_mst_handle_up_req(), the MST topology could be removed from another thread via drm_dp_mst_topology_mgr_set_mst(false), freeing mst_primary and setting drm_dp_mst_topology_mgr::mst_primary to NULL. This could lead to a NULL deref/use-after-free of mst_primary in drm_dp_mst_handle_up_req(). Avoid the above by holding a reference for mst_primary in drm_dp_mst_handle_up_req() while it's used. v2: Fix kfreeing the request if getting an mst_primary reference fails.

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: drm/dp_mst: garantizar que el puntero mst_primary sea válido en drm_dp_mst_handle_up_req() Al recibir un mensaje de solicitud de activación de MST de un hilo en drm_dp_mst_handle_up_req(), la topología de MST podría eliminarse de otro hilo mediante drm_dp_mst_topology_mgr_set_mst(false), liberando mst_primary y estableciendo drm_dp_mst_topology_mgr::mst_primary en NULL. Esto podría conducir a una desreferencia/use after free de NULL de mst_primary en drm_dp_mst_handle_up_req(). Evite lo anterior manteniendo una referencia para mst_primary en drm_dp_mst_handle_up_req() mientras se usa. v2: Se soluciona el problema de liberar la solicitud si falla la obtención de una referencia mst_primary.
