net: ethernet: ti: Fix return type of netcp_ndo_start_xmit()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ethernet: ti: Fix return type of netcp_ndo_start_xmit()
With clang's kernel control flow integrity (kCFI, CONFIG_CFI_CLANG),
indirect call targets are validated against the expected function
pointer prototype to make sure the call target is valid to help mitigate
ROP attacks. If they are not identical, there is a failure at run time,
which manifests as either a kernel panic or thread getting killed. A
proposed warning in clang aims to catch these at compile time, which
reveals:
drivers/net/ethernet/ti/netcp_core.c:1944:21: error: incompatible function pointer types
ext4: add EXT4_IGET_BAD flag to prevent unexpected bad inode
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: add EXT4_IGET_BAD flag to prevent unexpected bad inode
There are many places that will get unhappy (and crash) when ext4_iget()
returns a bad inode. However, if iget the boot loader inode, allows a bad
inode to be returned, because the inode may not be initialized. This
mechanism can be used to bypass some checks and cause panic. To solve this
problem, we add a special iget flag EXT4_IGET_BAD. Only with this flag
we'd be returning bad inode from ext4_iget(), otherwise we always return
the error code if the inode is bad inode.(suggested by Jan Kara)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: Fix potential memory leaks
When the driver hits -ENOMEM at allocating a URB or a buffer, it
aborts and goes to the error path that releases the all previously
allocated resources. However, when -ENOMEM hits at the middle of the
sync EP URB allocation loop, the partially allocated URBs might be
left without released, because ep->nurbs is still zero at that point.
Fix it by setting ep->nurbs at first, so that the error handler loops
over the full URB list.
net: enetc: avoid buffer leaks on xdp_do_redirect() failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: enetc: avoid buffer leaks on xdp_do_redirect() failure
Before enetc_clean_rx_ring_xdp() calls xdp_do_redirect(), each software
BD in the RX ring between index orig_i and i can have one of 2 refcount
values on its page.
We are the owner of the current buffer that is being processed, so the
refcount will be at least 1.
If the current owner of the buffer at the diametrically opposed index
in the RX ring (i.o.w, the other half of this page) has not yet called
kfree(), this page's refcount could even be 2.

iommu/vt-d: Clean up si_domain in the init_dmars() error path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/vt-d: Clean up si_domain in the init_dmars() error path
A splat from kmem_cache_destroy() was seen with a kernel prior to
commit ee2653bbe89d ("iommu/vt-d: Remove domain and devinfo mempool")
when there was a failure in init_dmars(), because the iommu_domain
cache still had objects. While the mempool code is now gone, there
still is a leak of the si_domain memory if init_dmars() fails. So
clean up si_domain in the init_dmars() error path.
cxl: fix possible null-ptr-deref in cxl_guest_init_afu|adapter()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cxl: fix possible null-ptr-deref in cxl_guest_init_afu|adapter()
If device_register() fails in cxl_register_afu|adapter(), the device
is not added, device_unregister() can not be called in the error path,
otherwise it will cause a null-ptr-deref because of removing not added
device.
As comment of device_register() says, it should use put_device() to give
up the reference in the error path. So split device_unregister() into
device_del() and put_device(), then goes to put dev when register fails.
memory: pl353-smc: Fix refcount leak bug in pl353_smc_probe()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
memory: pl353-smc: Fix refcount leak bug in pl353_smc_probe()
The break of for_each_available_child_of_node() needs a
corresponding of_node_put() when the reference 'child' is not
used anymore. Here we do not need to call of_node_put() in
fail path as '!match' means no break.
While the of_platform_device_create() will created a new
reference by 'child' but it has considered the refcounting.
nilfs2: fix shift-out-of-bounds/overflow in nilfs_sb2_bad_offset()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix shift-out-of-bounds/overflow in nilfs_sb2_bad_offset()
Patch series "nilfs2: fix UBSAN shift-out-of-bounds warnings on mount
time".
The first patch fixes a bug reported by syzbot, and the second one fixes
the remaining bug of the same kind. Although they are triggered by the
same super block data anomaly, I divided it into the above two because the
details of the issues and how to fix it are different.
Both are required to eliminate the shift-out-of-bounds issues at mount
time.

ntb_netdev: Use dev_kfree_skb_any() in interrupt context
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntb_netdev: Use dev_kfree_skb_any() in interrupt context
TX/RX callback handlers (ntb_netdev_tx_handler(),
ntb_netdev_rx_handler()) can be called in interrupt
context via the DMA framework when the respective
DMA operations have completed. As such, any calls
by these routines to free skb's, should use the
interrupt context safe dev_kfree_skb_any() function.
Previously, these callback handlers would call the
interrupt unsafe version of dev_kfree_skb(). This has
not presented an issue on Intel IOAT DMA engines as
that driver utilizes tasklets rather than a hard
interrupt han
RDMA/core: Make sure "ib_port" is valid when access sysfs node
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

The "ib_port" structure must be set before adding the sysfs kobject,

macintosh: fix possible memory leak in macio_add_one_device()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
macintosh: fix possible memory leak in macio_add_one_device()
Afer commit 1fa5ae857bb1 ("driver core: get rid of struct device's
bus_id string array"), the name of device is allocated dynamically. It
needs to be freed when of_device_register() fails. Call put_device() to
give up the reference that's taken in device_initialize(), so that it
can be freed in kobject_cleanup() when the refcount hits 0.
macio device is freed in macio_release_dev(), so the kfree() can be
removed.
cpufreq: Init completion before kobject_init_and_add()

In cpufreq_policy_alloc(), it will call uninitialed completion in
cpufreq_sysfs_release() when kobject_init_and_add() fails. And
that will cause a crash such as the following page fault in complete:

xen/gntdev: Accommodate VMA splitting
Prior to this commit, the gntdev driver code did not handle the
following scenario correctly with paravirtualized (PV) Xen domains:
* User process sets up a gntdev mapping composed of two grant mappings
(i.e., two pages shared by another Xen domain).
* User process munmap()s one of the pages.
* User process munmap()s the remaining page.
* User process exits.
In the scenario above, the user process would cause the kernel to log
the following messages in dmesg for the first munmap(), and the second
munmap() call would result in simila
xhci: Remove device endpoints from bandwidth list when freeing the device
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xhci: Remove device endpoints from bandwidth list when freeing the device
Endpoints are normally deleted from the bandwidth list when they are
dropped, before the virt device is freed.
If xHC host is dying or being removed then the endpoints aren't dropped
cleanly due to functions returning early to avoid interacting with a
non-accessible host controller.
So check and delete endpoints that are still on the bandwidth list when
freeing the virt device.
Solves a list_del corruption kernel crash when unbinding xhci-pci,
caused by xhci_mem_cleanup() when it later tried to del

RDMA/cma: Allow UD qp_type to join multicast only
As for multicast:
- The SIDR is the only mode that makes sense;
- Besides PS_UDP, other port spaces like PS_IB is also allowed, as it is
UD compatible. In this case qkey also needs to be set [1].
This patch allows only UD qp_type to join multicast, and set qkey to
default if it's not set, to fix an uninit-value error: the ib->rec.qkey
field is accessed without being initialized.
