Subject: ALSA: pcm: prevent UAF in snd_pcm_info
From: Robb Glasser <rglasser(a)google.com>
commit 362bca57f5d78220f8b5907b875961af9436e229 upstream.
When the device descriptor is closed, the `substream->runtime` pointer
is freed. But another thread may be in the ioctl handler, case
SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_PCM_INFO. This case calls snd_pcm_info_user() which
calls snd_pcm_info() which accesses the now freed `substream->runtime`.
Note: this fixes CVE-2017-0861

commit ddec3bdee05b06f1dda20ded003c3e10e4184cab upstream.
acpi_os_get_root_pointer() may return a valid address even if acpi_disabled
is set, but the host bridge information from the ACPI tables is not going
to be used in that case and the Broadcom host bridge initialization should
not be skipped then, So make broadcom_postcore_init() check acpi_disabled
too to avoid this issue.

From: Chunyu Hu <chuhu(a)redhat.com>
commit 55d2d0ad2fb4325f615d1950486fbc5e6fba1769 upstream.
On a secondary, idt is first loaded in cpu_init() with load_current_idt(),
i.e. no exceptions can be handled before that point.
The conversion of WARN() to use UD requires the IDT being loaded earlier as
any warning between start_secondary() and load_curren_idt() in cpu_init()
will result in an unhandled @UD exception and therefore fail the bringup of
the CPU.
Install the IDT handlers right in start_secondary() before calling cpu_init().

Subject: X.509: reject invalid BIT STRING for subjectPublicKey
From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers(a)google.com>
commit 0f30cbea005bd3077bd98cd29277d7fc2699c1da upstream.
Adding a specially crafted X.509 certificate whose subjectPublicKey
ASN.1 value is zero-length caused x509_extract_key_data() to set the
public key size to SIZE_MAX, as it subtracted the nonexistent BIT STRING
metadata byte. Then, x509_cert_parse() called kmemdup() with that bogus
size, triggering the WARN_ON_ONCE() in kmalloc_slab().
This appears to be harmless, but it still must be fixed since WARNs are
never supposed to be user-triggerable.
Fix it by updating x509_cert_parse() to validate that the value has a
BIT STRING metadata byte, and that the byte is 0 which indicates that
the number of bits in the bitstring is a multiple of 8.
It would be nice to handle the metadata byte in asn1_ber_decoder()
instead. But that would be tricky because in the general case a BIT
STRING could be implicitly tagged, and/or could legitimately have a
length that is not a whole number of bytes.
Here was the WARN (cleaned up slightly):

->pkey_algo used to be an enum, but was changed to a string by commit

two comparisons were not updated. Fix them to use strcmp().
This bug broke signature verification in certain configurations,

From: Huacai Chen <chenhc(a)lemote.com>
commit 90addc6b3c9cda0146fbd62a08e234c2b224a80c upstream.
In non-coherent DMA mode, kernel uses cache flushing operations to
maintain I/O coherency, so scsi's block queue should be aligned to the
value returned by dma_get_cache_alignment(). Otherwise, If a DMA buffer
and a kernel structure share a same cache line, and if the kernel
structure has dirty data, cache_invalidate (no writeback) will cause
data corruption.

Subject: scsi: libsas: align sata_device's rps_resp on a cacheline
From: Huacai Chen <chenhc(a)lemote.com>
commit c2e8fbf908afd81ad502b567a6639598f92c9b9d upstream.
The rps_resp buffer in ata_device is a DMA target, but it isn't
explicitly cacheline aligned. Due to this, adjacent fields can be
overwritten with stale data from memory on non-coherent architectures.
As a result, the kernel is sometimes unable to communicate with an SATA
device behind a SAS expander.
Fix this by ensuring that the rps_resp buffer is cacheline aligned.
This issue is similar to that fixed by Commit 84bda12af31f93 ("libata:
align ap->sector_buf") and Commit 4ee34ea3a12396f35b26 ("libata: Align
ata_device's id on a cacheline").

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch(a)lst.de>
commit 860dd4424f344400b491b212ee4acb3a358ba9d9 upstream.
Provide the dummy version of dma_get_cache_alignment that always returns
1 even if CONFIG_HAS_DMA is not set, so that drivers and subsystems can
use it without ifdefs.
