In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mips: sched: Fix CPUMASK_OFFSTACK memory corruption
This patch addresses a critical memory management flaw. When
CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is enabled, cpumask_var_t is a pointer.
Consequently, sizeof(new_mask) evaluates to the pointer size, causing
copy_from_user() to clobber the mask pointer. Furthermore, the old
logic performed copy_from_user() before allocating the mask.
Fix this by allocating new_mask first. To handle variable-sized user
masks correctly, use cpumask_size() to truncate overly large user masks
or pad undersized masks with zeros before copying the data dire
riscv: cacheinfo: Fix node reference leak in populate_cache_leaves
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
riscv: cacheinfo: Fix node reference leak in populate_cache_leaves
Currently, the while loop drops the reference to prev in each iteration.
If the loop terminates early due to a break, the final of_node_put(np)
correctly drops the reference to the current node.
However, if the loop terminates naturally because np == NULL, calling
of_node_put(np) is a no-op. This leaves the last valid node stored in
prev without its reference dropped, resulting in a node reference leak.
Fix this by changing the final `of_node_put(np)` to `of_node_put(prev)`.
mm/damon/core: always put unsuccessfully committed target pids
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/core: always put unsuccessfully committed target pids
damon_commit_target() puts and gets the destination and the source target
pids. It puts the destination target pid because it will be overwritten
by the source target pid. It gets the source pid because the caller is
supposed to eventually put the pids. In more detail, the caller will call
damon_destroy_ctx() after damon_commit_ctx() to destroy the entire source
context. And in this case, [f]vaddr operation set's cleanup_target()
callback will put the pids.
The commit operation is made at the context level.
mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: fix dir put orders in access_pattern_add_dirs()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: fix dir put orders in access_pattern_add_dirs()
Patch series "mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: fix wrong directories put orders in
error paths".
Error paths of damon_sysfs_access_pattern_add_dirs() and
damon_sysfs_scheme_add_dirs() functions put references to directories in
wrong orders. As a result, uninitialized memory dereference and/or
memory leak can happen. Fix those.
This patch (of 2):
In access_pattern_add_dirs(), error handling path puts references starting
from setup failed directories. If the failure happpened from the initial
allication in
mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: put stats for scheme_add_dirs() internal error
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: put stats for scheme_add_dirs() internal error
damon_sysfs_scheme_add_dirs() setup the tried_regions directory after the
stats directory setup is completed. When the tried_regions directory
setup is failed, the setup function ensures the reference for the tried
regions directory is released. Hence the error path should put references
on setup succeeded directory objects, starting from the stats directory.
However, the error path is putting the tried_regions directory instead of
the stats directory.
As a direct result, the stats directory object i

fs/proc/task_mmu: fix hugetlb self-deadlock in pagemap_scan_pte_hole()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

A PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl requesting PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING on a hugetlb VMA hangs

mm/mm_init: fix uninitialized struct pages for ZONE_DEVICE
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/mm_init: fix uninitialized struct pages for ZONE_DEVICE
If DAX memory is hotplugged into an unoccupied subsection of an early
section, section_activate() reuses the unoptimized boot memmap. However,
compound_nr_pages() still assumes that vmemmap optimization is in effect
and initializes only the reduced number of struct pages. As a result, the
remaining tail struct pages are left uninitialized, which can later lead
to unexpected behavior or crashes.
Fix this by treating early sections as unoptimized when calculating how
many struct pages to initialize.
mtd: slram: remove failed entries from the device list
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mtd: slram: remove failed entries from the device list
register_device() links a new slram_mtdlist entry before allocating all
of the state needed by the entry. If a later allocation, memremap(), or
mtd_device_register() fails, the partially initialized entry remains on
the global list. A later cleanup can then dereference or free invalid
state from that failed entry.
Unwind the partially initialized entry and clear the list tail on each
failure path after the entry has been linked.
9p: skip nlink update in cacheless mode to fix WARN_ON
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
9p: skip nlink update in cacheless mode to fix WARN_ON
v9fs_dec_count() unconditionally calls drop_nlink() on regular files,
even when the inode's nlink is already zero. In cacheless mode the
client refetches inode metadata from the server (the source of truth)
on every operation, so by the time v9fs_remove() returns, the locally
cached nlink may already reflect the post-unlink value:
1. Client initiates unlink, server processes it and sets nlink to 0
2. Client refetches inode metadata (nlink=0) before unlink returns
3. Client's v9fs_remove() completes successfully
mtd: maps: vmu-flash: fix fault in unaligned fixup
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mtd: maps: vmu-flash: fix fault in unaligned fixup
Use kzalloc_obj() / kzalloc_objs() to allocate the memcard structs,
instead of kmalloc_obj() / kmalloc_objs() to prevent access to
uninitialized data.
Fixes runtime error: Fault in unaligned fixup: 0000 [#1] at
mtd_get_fact_prot_info.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mtd: rawnand: pl353: fix probe resource allocation
During probe(), the devm_ioremap() is called with the parent device
instead of the current one. So when the module is unloaded, the register
area isn't released.
Target the pl35x device in the devm_ioremap() instead of its parent.
net/9p: fix infinite loop in p9_client_rpc on fatal signal
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/9p: fix infinite loop in p9_client_rpc on fatal signal
When p9_client_rpc() is called with type P9_TFLUSH and the transport
has no peer (e.g. fd transport backed by pipes with no 9p server),
a fatal signal causes an infinite loop:
again:
err = io_wait_event_killable(req->wq, ...)
/* SIGKILL wakes the task, returns -ERESTARTSYS */
if (err == -ERESTARTSYS && c->status == Connected &&
type == P9_TFLUSH) {
sigpending = 1;
clear_thread_flag(TIF_SIGPENDING);
goto again;
}
clear_thread_flag() clears TIF_SIGPENDING before jumping back to

ocfs2: avoid moving extents to occupied clusters
For non-auto OCFS2_IOC_MOVE_EXT operations, userspace supplies a physical
me_goal. ocfs2_move_extent() initializes new_phys_cpos from that goal and
expects ocfs2_probe_alloc_group() to replace it with a free run in the
target block group.
The probe currently leaves *phys_cpos unchanged if the scan reaches the
end of the group without finding a free run. An occupied goal at the last
bit can therefore survive the probe and be passed to
__ocfs2_move_extent(), which copies file data into a cluster still owned
by another inode
ocfs2: fix NULL h_transaction deref in ocfs2_assure_trans_credits
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: fix NULL h_transaction deref in ocfs2_assure_trans_credits
[BUG]
A direct write over unwritten extents can panic the kernel in
ocfs2_assure_trans_credits() when the journal aborts during DIO
completion. The crash is a general protection fault from a NULL pointer
dereference.
[CAUSE]
ocfs2_dio_end_io_write() loops over a direct write's unwritten extents,
marking each written under a single journal handle. If the journal
aborts (for example after an I/O error) while the extent tree is being
updated, the handle is left aborted with its transaction pointer
cleared. The
ocfs2: fix UBSAN array-index-out-of-bounds in ocfs2_sum_rightmost_rec
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: fix UBSAN array-index-out-of-bounds in ocfs2_sum_rightmost_rec
[BUG]
On-disk corruption setting l_next_free_rec to 0 in an inode's embedded
extent list triggers a UBSAN panic on the next write to that file.
[CAUSE]
ocfs2_sum_rightmost_rec() computes
i = le16_to_cpu(el->l_next_free_rec) - 1
and accesses el->l_recs[i] without validating i. When l_next_free_rec
is 0, i becomes -1; when l_next_free_rec exceeds l_count, i falls
past the end of the array. Either case violates the
__counted_by_le(l_count) annotation on l_recs[] and triggers UBSAN.

ocfs2: add journal NULL check in ocfs2_checkpoint_inode()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: add journal NULL check in ocfs2_checkpoint_inode()
During unmount, ocfs2_journal_shutdown() frees the journal and sets
osb->journal to NULL. Later, when VFS evicts remaining cached inodes,
ocfs2_evict_inode() -> ocfs2_clear_inode() -> ocfs2_checkpoint_inode()
-> ocfs2_ci_fully_checkpointed() dereferences osb->journal, causing a
NULL pointer dereference.
Fix this by adding a NULL check for osb->journal in
ocfs2_checkpoint_inode(). If the journal is NULL, it has already been
fully flushed and destroyed during shutdown, so there is nothing to
checkpoint.
ocfs2: reject dinodes with non-canonical i_mode type
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: reject dinodes with non-canonical i_mode type
Patch series "ocfs2: harden inode validators against forged metadata", v2.
This series adds three structural checks to OCFS2 dinode validation so
malformed on-disk fields are rejected before ocfs2_populate_inode() copies
them into the in-core inode.
The checks cover:
- i_mode values whose type bits do not name a canonical POSIX file
type;
- non-device dinodes whose id1.dev1.i_rdev field is non-zero; and
- non-inline dinodes that claim non-zero i_size while i_clusters is
zero, covering directories uncondit
ocfs2: reject non-inline dinodes with i_size and zero i_clusters
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: reject non-inline dinodes with i_size and zero i_clusters
On a volume mounted without OCFS2_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_SPARSE_ALLOC, a
non-inline regular file with non-zero i_size and zero i_clusters is
structurally malformed: the extent map declares no allocated clusters yet
the size header claims content exists. Keep rejecting that shape, but
express it through a shared predicate so the same invariant is available
to normal inode reads and online filecheck.
The same zero-cluster shape is also malformed for non-inline directories.
