GHSA-3Q5Q-J6R6-CGV8
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-12-04 15:31 – Updated: 2024-12-11 18:30In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Handle dml allocation failure to avoid crash
[Why] In the case where a dml allocation fails for any reason, the current state's dml contexts would no longer be valid. Then subsequent calls dc_state_copy_internal would shallow copy invalid memory and if the new state was released, a double free would occur.
[How] Reset dml pointers in new_state to NULL and avoid invalid pointer
(cherry picked from commit bcafdc61529a48f6f06355d78eb41b3aeda5296c)

GHSA-3QM2-RFQW-FMRW
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-24 17:43 – Updated: 2023-06-13 20:40Affected versions of scratchpad used ptr::read to read elements while calling a user provided function f on them. Since the pointer read duplicates ownership, a panic inside the user provided f function could cause a double free when unwinding.
The flaw was fixed in commit 891561bea by removing the unsafe block and using a plain iterator.

Mitigation
Choose a language that provides automatic memory management.
Mitigation
Ensure that each allocation is freed only once. After freeing a chunk, set the pointer to NULL to ensure the pointer cannot be freed again. In complicated error conditions, be sure that clean-up routines respect the state of allocation properly. If the language is object oriented, ensure that object destructors delete each chunk of memory only once.
Mitigation
Use a static analysis tool to find double free instances.
