HID: sony: fix UAF of ghl_poke_timer / ghl_urb at driver unbind
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: sony: fix UAF of ghl_poke_timer / ghl_urb at driver unbind
For GHL (Guitar Hero Live) dongles, sony_probe() arms a periodic timer:
ghl_magic_poke() (the timer callback) submits sc->ghl_urb, and the URB
completion ghl_magic_poke_cb() re-arms the timer with mod_timer().
sony_remove() drained the timer with timer_delete_sync() and then freed
the URB with usb_free_urb():
timer_delete_sync(&sc->ghl_poke_timer);
usb_free_urb(sc->ghl_urb);
timer_delete_sync() does not block re-arming, and while the URB is in
flight the timer is not pending, so the sync delete is a no-op.
HID: universal-pidff: stop the device when force-feedback init fails
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: universal-pidff: stop the device when force-feedback init fails
universal_pidff_probe() starts the device with hid_hw_start() and then, if
force-feedback initialisation fails, returns the error through a label that
only does "return error". The device is left started.
The HID core does not unwind on the driver's behalf. __hid_device_probe()
releases the devres group, closes the report and clears hdev->driver:
if (ret) {
devres_release_group(&hdev->dev, hdev->devres_group_id);
hid_close_report(hdev);
hdev->driver = NULL;
}

HID: mcp2221: clear rxbuf after I2C/SMBus transfer completes
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: mcp2221: clear rxbuf after I2C/SMBus transfer completes
mcp_i2c_smbus_read() stores the caller-supplied buffer pointer in
mcp->rxbuf for the duration of a transfer but never clears it when the
transfer finishes or times out. Once the caller frees or reuses the
buffer, mcp->rxbuf becomes a dangling pointer. A delayed or spurious
MCP2221_I2C_GET_DATA report can then drive mcp2221_raw_event() to
memcpy device data into the freed memory, causing a write
use-after-free.
Route all return paths through a single exit point that clears
mcp->rxbuf and mcp->rxbuf_size, so that t
HID: mcp2221: validate report size in mcp2221_raw_event()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: mcp2221: validate report size in mcp2221_raw_event()
mcp2221_raw_event() never validates the size of incoming HID reports.
In the MCP2221_I2C_GET_DATA path it trusts the device-supplied data[3]
as the copy length without checking that 4 + data[3] bytes actually
exist in the received report. A malicious or misbehaving USB device can
send a short report with a large data[3], causing the memcpy to read
past the valid report data in the HID transfer buffer and leak
uninitialized kernel memory back to userspace through the I2C/SMBus
read path.

eventfs: Initialize ei->children and ei->list in init_ei()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
eventfs: Initialize ei->children and ei->list in init_ei()
eventfs_create_dir() allocates the eventfs_inode and initializes it with
init_ei(). But this does not initialize the eventfs_inode list_heads. If
the eventfs_create_dir() fails due to memory pressure, it will call
free_ei() before it initialized the lists, and that checks to make sure
the eventfs_inode has no children. But because the list wasn't
initialized, it will give a false warning.
Fix it by moving the list initialization into init_ei().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: validate dirty page table on log replay
Each DIR_PAGE_ENTRY ends in a page_lcns[] array whose length is the on-disk
lcns_follow field. check_rstbl() validates the table bookkeeping but never
checks that this array fits in the entry, so a crafted lcns_follow lets the
v0->v1 conversion memmove and later replay passes run off the entry.
Add check_dp_table() to reject, right after check_rstbl(), any entry larger
than its size claims via struct_size() (the same expression used to allocate
these entries, so the check is overflow-safe by construction). All consumers

fs/ntfs3: fix info-leak on partial LZNT decompress in ni_read_frame()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: fix info-leak on partial LZNT decompress in ni_read_frame()
ni_read_frame() decompresses an LZNT $DATA frame into the vmapped target
pages and then trusts decompress_lznt()'s return value:
unc_size = decompress_lznt(frame_ondisk, ondisk_size, frame_mem,
frame_size);
if ((ssize_t)unc_size < 0) err = unc_size;
else if (!unc_size || unc_size > frame_size) err = -EINVAL;
decompress_lznt() stops as soon as the compressed stream is exhausted
(e.g. a zero chunk header) and returns the number of bytes it actually
wrote, which m
fs/ntfs3: bound page_lcns[] index by the log record
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: bound page_lcns[] index by the log record
The copy_lcns loop and the redo shorten loop index page_lcns[] at j + i,
where i runs up to the log record's lcns_follow. That count is checked only
against the record's own length, not the target entry, so check_dp_table()
(which validates the entry's lcns_follow) does not cover it: the copy_lcns
entry may even be freshly allocated after that check, and find_dp() bounds j
but not i. A crafted record thus overflows page_lcns[] of an otherwise valid
entry.
Add dp_range_ok() and reject, before each loop, any record whose ru
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: validate non-resident attribute offsets
ntfs_attr_update_meta() shifts the attribute name when converting between
non-sparse and sparse attributes. Converting to sparse also adds the
compressed_size field before the name and mapping pairs, requiring eight
additional bytes in the attribute record.
However, the validator does not check that name_offset is within safe
boundaries for these operations or that the additional space is available.
A malicious MFT record could set name_offset such that:
1. The name is positioned at the very end of a non-sparse attribute.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: verify run length exceeding volume boundary
The mapping pairs decoder validates that the starting LCN is within the
volume but does not check if the run extends beyond the volume boundary.
A malformed NTFS image with a crafted mapping pairs array could cause
the kernel to access memory beyond the volume boundary, potentially leading
to memory corruption and privilege escalation.
Add validation to ensure lcn + length stays within nr_clusters.
ecryptfs: hold msg ctx list lock when cleaning daemon queue
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ecryptfs: hold msg ctx list lock when cleaning daemon queue
ecryptfs_exorcise_daemon() drops queued messages from a dying daemon
without holding ecryptfs_msg_ctx_lists_mux, but
ecryptfs_msg_ctx_alloc_to_free() requires that lock.
Take the list lock while moving the queued contexts back to the free
list to avoid racing with other global msg ctx list users.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ecryptfs: pass packet set buffer size to parser
ecryptfs_parse_packet_set() receives a pointer into the file header, but
it calculates the remaining packet buffer size from PAGE_SIZE - 8. For
version 1 headers the packet set starts later in the header, so this can
overstate the available buffer.
Pass the actual packet set buffer length from the caller and calculate
per-packet limits from the remaining bytes in that buffer. Recompute the
remaining length after consuming a tag 3 packet before parsing the
following tag 11 packet.
ecryptfs: reject oversized encrypted_key_size in parse_tag_3_packet
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ecryptfs: reject oversized encrypted_key_size in parse_tag_3_packet
parse_tag_3_packet() set encrypted_key_size from the Tag 3 packet body
without bounding it against ECRYPTFS_MAX_KEY_BYTES (64). When
encrypted_key_size > 64, decrypt_passphrase_encrypted_session_key()
sets decrypted_key_size = encrypted_key_size and performs two
out-of-bounds writes:
1. crypto_skcipher_decrypt() writes encrypted_key_size bytes into
decrypted_key[64] via scatterlist, overflowing into the parent
ecryptfs_auth_tok struct.
2. memcpy(crypt_stat->key, decrypted_key, decrypted_key_size) wri
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ecryptfs: reject too-small tag 70 packets
ecryptfs_parse_tag_70_packet() subtracts fixed metadata fields from the
parsed packet body size to derive the encrypted filename size. A
malformed packet with a body smaller than those fixed fields can underflow
that size calculation.
Reject tag 70 packets before the subtraction unless the body contains the
signature, cipher code, and at least one byte of encrypted filename data.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ecryptfs: release message context on send failure
ecryptfs_send_message_locked() moves a message context from the free
list to the allocated list before sending the request to the userspace
daemon.
If ecryptfs_send_miscdev() fails, the context is left on the
allocated list and cannot be reused. Move it back to the free list on
failure and clear the caller's pointer.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
efivarfs: Rate limit statfs() handler
Ravi reports that statfs() may be called by unprivileged users on the
efivarfs mount point, which may result in a flood of calls to the
QueryVariableInfo() runtime service. These calls are disproportionately
costly on x86 systems where the variable store is backed by SMM, as each
SMM entry requires a rendez-vous of all the CPUs.
So rate limit the calls to QueryVariableInfo() at twice per second, and
return the most recently obtained value for calls that are elided.
erofs: skip sufficiently large global buffers when resizing
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
erofs: skip sufficiently large global buffers when resizing
z_erofs_gbuf_nrpages is advanced only after every global buffer has been
grown. If a resize fails after some buffers were enlarged, a retry
revisits those enlarged buffers.
Retrying the same size then returns -ENOMEM because alloc_pages_bulk()
has no pages to add and the unchanged return value is treated as a
failure. Retrying an intermediate size allocates a temporary pointer
array smaller than gbuf->nrpages and copies more existing pointers than
the array can hold.
Skip buffers that already satisfy the request.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext2: Fix lost inode updates for IS_SYNC inodes
ext2_setsize() and ext2_xattr_set2() had a construct like:
if (IS_SYNC(inode)) {
sync_inode_metadata(inode, 1);
} else {
mark_inode_dirty(inode);
}
which leads to lost inode updates for IS_SYNC inodes because
sync_inode_metadata() does anything only if the inode is already dirty
and hence inode updates may be simply lost. Fix the problem by
unconditionally marking the inode dirty and *then* call
sync_inode_metadata().
fbdev: omapfb: panel-dsi-cm: initialize lock before registering display
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: omapfb: panel-dsi-cm: initialize lock before registering display
dsicm_probe() registers the display before initializing ddata->lock.
Once omapdss_register_display() publishes the display, another consumer
can reach a dsicm callback that takes this mutex while it is still
uninitialized.
Initialize the mutex before registering the display so the published
callbacks always see a valid lock.
fbdev: ssd1307fb: defer I2C transfers from damage callbacks
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: ssd1307fb: defer I2C transfers from damage callbacks
The fbdev damage callbacks may run from fbcon while printk has disabled
preemption. They currently update the display synchronously, which enters
the sleeping I2C transfer path from atomic context.
