ACPICA: Fix use-after-free in acpidsterminatecontrolmethod()

The Intel SEDI IPM (inter-processor mailbox) driver in drivers/ipm/ipmsedi.c handles an inbound message interrupt in ipmeventdispose(). It read the peer-written doorbell register, extracted the payload length with IPCHEADERGETLENGTH(), and passed that length straight to sediipcreadmsg() to copy the message into struct ipmsedicontext.incomingdatabuf, without checking it against the buffer size. The doorbell length field is 10 bits wide (IPCHEADERLENGTHMASK is 0x03FF), so it can encode up to 1023 bytes, while incomingdatabuf is IPCDATALENMAX (128) bytes. The bounds check in the underlying HAL sediipcreadmsg() is a DBGCHECK that compiles away unless CONFIGDEBUG is set, so no check remained in a production image.

The doorbell register is written by the peer processor on the other side of the IPC link — for the intelish5 targets, the host CPU's ISH driver, reached through the device's memory-mapped register window. Host-side software with driver-level or raw BAR access can therefore set a length of up to 1023 and cause the interrupt handler to copy far past the destination buffer. The affected path requires an application to have registered an IPM receive callback via ipmregistercallback(), which is the driver's normal mode of use.

The result is an out-of-bounds write of up to 895 bytes into static (.bss) memory, performed in interrupt context. The overflow first clobbers the rest of struct ipmsedicontext — including the ksem and kmutex used by the transmit path, whose wait queues contain self-referential list pointers — and then adjacent static data, giving a kernel data-structure corruption and crash primitive. The overflowing bytes are read from registers following the message window, a portion of which are themselves peer-programmable. The fix rejects any doorbell whose encoded length exceeds IPCDATALENMAX, logging it and acknowledging the doorbell so the peer is not left waiting.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: iwlwifi: dvm: fix memory leak in iwlopmodedvmstart()

In iwlopmodedvmstart(), jumping to outfreeeeprom currently bypasses the outfreeeepromblob label. Consequently, error paths triggered after successfully parsing the EEPROM free priv->nvmdata but leak priv->eepromblob.

Fix this memory leak by reordering the error handling labels so that outfreeeeprom falls through to outfreeeepromblob.

The bug was first flagged by an experimental analysis tool we are developing for kernel memory-management bugs while analyzing v6.13-rc1. The tool is still under development and is not yet publicly available. Manual inspection confirms that the bug is still present in v7.1-rc6.

An x8664 allyesconfig build showed no new warnings. As we do not have supported Intel DVM wireless hardware and firmware to test with, no runtime testing was able to be performed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ixgbe: do not configure xps for XDP queues

netifsetxpsqueue() should not be called for an XDP Tx queue, since such queues are not netdev-exposed. On systems with number of CPUs >=64, on E610 adapter, netdev is configured with maximum number queue pairs being 63 (due to MSI-X assignment), but configuring XDP results in 64 XDP queues.

So, during XDP program load, when netifsetxpsqueue() is called for the last XDP queue, we get a WARNING with a call trace and KASAN report afterwards (if enabled).

The Intel ALH digital-audio-interface driver function daialhgetproperties() in drivers/dai/intel/alh/alh.c used a caller-supplied int streamid with no range validation. The value indexes the fixed-size static const uint8t alhhandshakemap[64] array and scales a FIFO register address, so an out-of-range streamid produces an out-of-bounds read of one byte at an attacker-chosen signed offset from the array. That byte is written into prop->dmahsid and the resulting struct daiproperties is copied back to the caller, leaking it.

daigetpropertiescopy() is a Zephyr syscall, and its verifier zvrfydaigetpropertiescopy() (drivers/dai/daihandlers.c) validates only the device-object permission and the destination buffer, not streamid. A user-mode thread that has been granted access to the ALH DAI device object can therefore call the syscall with an arbitrary streamid, crossing the userspace/kernel sandbox boundary.

The impact is a one-byte-per-call arbitrary-offset kernel information disclosure (and leakage of a computed kernel address via fifoaddress); a streamid that resolves to an unmapped page faults in kernel context, giving a local denial of service. Exploitation requires CONFIGUSERSPACE and device access, making this a local, moderate-severity issue. The fix rejects negative and too-large streamid values up front and returns NULL, which the copy wrapper maps to -ENOENT.
