* [PATCH] usb-storage: fix race between reset and disconnectAlan Stern2006-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | My recent patch converting usb-storage to use usb_reset_composite_device() added a bug, a race between reset and disconnect. It was necessary to drop the private lock while executing a reset, and if a disconnect occurs at that time it will cause a crash. This patch (as722) fixes the problem by explicitly checking for an early termination after executing each command.

* [PATCH] USB: rename Cypress CY7C63xxx driver to proper name and fix up some ↵Oliver Bock2006-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | tiny things This is a new driver for the Cypress CY7C63xxx mirco controller series. It currently supports the pre-programmed CYC63001A-PC by AK Modul-Bus GmbH. It's based on a kernel 2.4 driver (cyport) by Marcus Maul which I ported to kernel 2.6 using sysfs. I intend to support more controllers of this family (and more features) as soon as I get hold of the required IDs etc. Please see the source code's header for more information.

* [PATCH] USB: au1200: EHCI and OHCI fixesDaniel Mack2006-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I received an DBAU1200 eval kit from AMD a few days ago and tried to enable the USB2 port, but the current linux-2.6 GIT did not even compile with CONFIG_SOC_1200, CONFIG_SOC_AU1X00, CONFIG_USB_EHCI and CONFIG_USB_OHCI set. Furthermore, in ehci-hcd.c, platform_driver_register() was called with an improper argument of type 'struct device_driver *' which of course ended up in a kernel oops. How could that ever have worked on your machines? Anyway, here's a trivial patch that makes the USB subsystem working on my board for both OHCI and EHCI. It also removes the /* FIXME use "struct platform_driver" */.

As of this kernel the AHCI driver grabs the controller and rams it into AHCI mode losing the PATA ports and making CD drives and the like vanish. The all-generic-ide option fails because the AHCI driver grabbed the PCI device and reconfigured it. To fix this three things are needed. #1 We must put the chip into dual function mode #2 The AHCI driver must grab only function 0 (already in your rc1 tree) #3 Something must grab the PATA ports The attached patch is the minimal risk edition of this. It puts the chip into dual function mode so that AHCI will grab the SATA ports without losing the PATA ports. To keep the risk as low as possible the third patch adds the PCI identifiers for the PATA port and the FN check to the ide-generic driver. There is a more featured jmicron driver on its way but that adds risk and the ide-generic support is sufficient to install and run a system. The actual chip setup done by the quirk is the precise setup recommended by the vendor. (The JMB368 appears only in the ide-generic entry as it has no AHCI so does not need the quirk) Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Acked-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* | [PATCH] Fix prctl privilege escalation and suid_dumpable (CVE-2006-2451)Marcel Holtmann2006-07-12
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based on a patch from Ernie Petrides During security research, Red Hat discovered a behavioral flaw in core dump handling. A local user could create a program that would cause a core file to be dumped into a directory they would not normally have permissions to write to. This could lead to a denial of service (disk consumption), or allow the local user to gain root privileges. The prctl() system call should never allow to set "dumpable" to the value 2. Especially not for non-privileged users. This can be split into three cases: 1) running as root -- then core dumps will already be done as root, and so prctl(PR_SET_DUMPABLE, 2) is not useful 2) running as non-root w/setuid-to-root -- this is the debatable case 3) running as non-root w/setuid-to-non-root -- then you definitely do NOT want "dumpable" to get set to 2 because you have the privilege escalation vulnerability With case #2, the only potential usefulness is for a program that has designed to run with higher privilege (than the user invoking it) that wants to be able to create root-owned root-validated core dumps. This might be useful as a debugging aid, but would only be safe if the program had done a chdir() to a safe directory. There is no benefit to a production setuid-to-root utility, because it shouldn't be dumping core in the first place. If this is true, then the same debugging aid could also be accomplished with the "suid_dumpable" sysctl.
