btrfs: fix NULL dereference on root when tracing inode eviction
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix NULL dereference on root when tracing inode eviction
When evicting an inode the first thing we do is to setup tracing for it,
which implies fetching the root's id. But in btrfs_evict_inode() the
root might be NULL, as implied in the next check that we do in
btrfs_evict_inode().
Hence, we either should set the ->root_objectid to 0 in case the root is
NULL, or we move tracing setup after checking that the root is not
NULL. Setting the rootid to 0 at least gives us the possibility to trace
this call even in the case when the root is NULL, so that's the solution

syzbot is still reporting
unregister_netdevice: waiting for vcan0 to become free. Usage count = 2
even after commit 93a27b5891b8 ("can: j1939: add missing calls in

found that j1939_session_activate() can succeed even after
j1939_cancel_active_session() from j1939_netdev_notify(NETDEV_UNREGISTER)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv4: ip_gre: make ipgre_header() robust
Analog to commit db5b4e39c4e6 ("ip6_gre: make ip6gre_header() robust")
Over the years, syzbot found many ways to crash the kernel
in ipgre_header() [1].
This involves team or bonding drivers ability to dynamically
change their dev->needed_headroom and/or dev->hard_header_len
In this particular crash mld_newpack() allocated an skb
with a too small reserve/headroom, and by the time mld_sendpack()
was called, syzbot managed to attach an ipgre device.

dst: fix races in rt6_uncached_list_del() and rt_del_uncached_list()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dst: fix races in rt6_uncached_list_del() and rt_del_uncached_list()
syzbot was able to crash the kernel in rt6_uncached_list_flush_dev()
in an interesting way [1]
Crash happens in list_del_init()/INIT_LIST_HEAD() while writing
list->prev, while the prior write on list->next went well.
static inline void INIT_LIST_HEAD(struct list_head *list)
{
WRITE_ONCE(list->next, list); // This went well
WRITE_ONCE(list->prev, list); // Crash, @list has been freed.
}
Issue here is that rt6_uncached_list_del() did not attempt to lock
ul->lock, as list_empty(&rt->dst.rt_uncached) ret
net/sched: sch_qfq: do not free existing class in qfq_change_class()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: sch_qfq: do not free existing class in qfq_change_class()
Fixes qfq_change_class() error case.
cl->qdisc and cl should only be freed if a new class and qdisc
were allocated, or we risk various UAF.
libceph: make free_choose_arg_map() resilient to partial allocation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libceph: make free_choose_arg_map() resilient to partial allocation
free_choose_arg_map() may dereference a NULL pointer if its caller fails
after a partial allocation.
For example, in decode_choose_args(), if allocation of arg_map->args
fails, execution jumps to the fail label and free_choose_arg_map() is
called. Since arg_map->size is updated to a non-zero value before memory
allocation, free_choose_arg_map() will iterate over arg_map->args and
dereference a NULL pointer.
To prevent this potential NULL pointer dereference and make
free_choose_arg_map() more resilient, a
libceph: replace overzealous BUG_ON in osdmap_apply_incremental()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libceph: replace overzealous BUG_ON in osdmap_apply_incremental()
If the osdmap is (maliciously) corrupted such that the incremental
osdmap epoch is different from what is expected, there is no need to
BUG. Instead, just declare the incremental osdmap to be invalid.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: avoid kernel-infoleak from struct iw_point
struct iw_point has a 32bit hole on 64bit arches.
struct iw_point {
void __user *pointer; /* Pointer to the data (in user space) */
__u16 length; /* number of fields or size in bytes */
__u16 flags; /* Optional params */
};
Make sure to zero the structure to avoid disclosing 32bits of kernel data
to user space.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm-verity: disable recursive forward error correction
There are two problems with the recursive correction:
1. It may cause denial-of-service. In fec_read_bufs, there is a loop that
has 253 iterations. For each iteration, we may call verity_hash_for_block
recursively. There is a limit of 4 nested recursions - that means that
there may be at most 253^4 (4 billion) iterations. Red Hat QE team
actually created an image that pushes dm-verity to this limit - and this
image just makes the udev-worker process get stuck in the 'D' state.
2. It doesn't work. In fec_read_bufs we st
net: usb: rtl8150: fix memory leak on usb_submit_urb() failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: usb: rtl8150: fix memory leak on usb_submit_urb() failure
In async_set_registers(), when usb_submit_urb() fails, the allocated
async_req structure and URB are not freed, causing a memory leak.
The completion callback async_set_reg_cb() is responsible for freeing
these allocations, but it is only called after the URB is successfully
submitted and completes (successfully or with error). If submission
fails, the callback never runs and the memory is leaked.
Fix this by freeing both the URB and the request structure in the error
path when usb_submit_urb() f
ksmbd: Fix refcount leak when invalid session is found on session lookup
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: Fix refcount leak when invalid session is found on session lookup
When a session is found but its state is not SMB2_SESSION_VALID, It
indicates that no valid session was found, but it is missing to decrement
the reference count acquired by the session lookup, which results in
a reference count leak. This patch fixes the issue by explicitly calling
ksmbd_user_session_put to release the reference to the session.
net/sched: sch_qfq: Fix NULL deref when deactivating inactive aggregate in qfq_reset
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: sch_qfq: Fix NULL deref when deactivating inactive aggregate in qfq_reset
`qfq_class->leaf_qdisc->q.qlen > 0` does not imply that the class
itself is active.
Two qfq_class objects may point to the same leaf_qdisc. This happens
when:
1. one QFQ qdisc is attached to the dev as the root qdisc, and
2. another QFQ qdisc is temporarily referenced (e.g., via qdisc_get()
/ qdisc_put()) and is pending to be destroyed, as in function
tc_new_tfilter.
When packets are enqueued through the root QFQ qdisc, the shared
leaf_qdisc->q.qlen increases. At the same time, the seco
media: adv7842: Avoid possible out-of-bounds array accesses in adv7842_cp_log_status()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: adv7842: Avoid possible out-of-bounds array accesses in adv7842_cp_log_status()
It's possible for cp_read() and hdmi_read() to return -EIO. Those
values are further used as indexes for accessing arrays.
Fix that by checking return values where it's needed.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
crypto: seqiv - Do not use req->iv after crypto_aead_encrypt
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: seqiv - Do not use req->iv after crypto_aead_encrypt
As soon as crypto_aead_encrypt is called, the underlying request
may be freed by an asynchronous completion. Thus dereferencing
req->iv after it returns is invalid.
Instead of checking req->iv against info, create a new variable
unaligned_info and use it for that purpose instead.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
parisc: Do not reprogram affinitiy on ASP chip
The ASP chip is a very old variant of the GSP chip and is used e.g. in
HP 730 workstations. When trying to reprogram the affinity it will crash
with a HPMC as the relevant registers don't seem to be at the usual
location. Let's avoid the crash by checking the sversion. Also note,
that reprogramming isn't necessary either, as the HP730 is a just a
single-CPU machine.
ACPICA: Avoid walking the Namespace if start_node is NULL
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPICA: Avoid walking the Namespace if start_node is NULL
Although commit 0c9992315e73 ("ACPICA: Avoid walking the ACPI Namespace
if it is not there") fixed the situation when both start_node and
acpi_gbl_root_node are NULL, the Linux kernel mainline now still crashed
on Honor Magicbook 14 Pro [1].
That happens due to the access to the member of parent_node in
acpi_ns_get_next_node(). The NULL pointer dereference will always
happen, no matter whether or not the start_node is equal to
ACPI_ROOT_OBJECT, so move the check of start_node being NULL
out of the if block.

libceph: make decode_pool() more resilient against corrupted osdmaps
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libceph: make decode_pool() more resilient against corrupted osdmaps
If the osdmap is (maliciously) corrupted such that the encoded length
of ceph_pg_pool envelope is less than what is expected for a particular
encoding version, out-of-bounds reads may ensue because the only bounds
check that is there is based on that length value.
This patch adds explicit bounds checks for each field that is decoded
or skipped.
via_wdt: fix critical boot hang due to unnamed resource allocation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
via_wdt: fix critical boot hang due to unnamed resource allocation
The VIA watchdog driver uses allocate_resource() to reserve a MMIO
region for the watchdog control register. However, the allocated
resource was not given a name, which causes the kernel resource tree
to contain an entry marked as "<BAD>" under /proc/iomem on x86
platforms.
During boot, this unnamed resource can lead to a critical hang because
subsequent resource lookups and conflict checks fail to handle the
invalid entry properly.
crypto: af_alg - zero initialize memory allocated via sock_kmalloc
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: af_alg - zero initialize memory allocated via sock_kmalloc
Several crypto user API contexts and requests allocated with
sock_kmalloc() were left uninitialized, relying on callers to
set fields explicitly. This resulted in the use of uninitialized
data in certain error paths or when new fields are added in the
future.
The ACVP patches also contain two user-space interface files:
algif_kpp.c and algif_akcipher.c. These too rely on proper
initialization of their context structures.
A particular issue has been observed with the newly added
'inflight' variable introduc
