ALSA: usb-audio: Drop snd_BUG_ON() from snd_usbmidi_output_open()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: Drop snd_BUG_ON() from snd_usbmidi_output_open()
snd_usbmidi_output_open() has a check of the NULL port with
snd_BUG_ON(). snd_BUG_ON() was used as this shouldn't have happened,
but in reality, the NULL port may be seen when the device gives an
invalid endpoint setup at the descriptor, hence the driver skips the
allocation. That is, the check itself is valid and snd_BUG_ON()
should be dropped from there. Otherwise it's confusing as if it were
a real bug, as recently syzbot stumbled on it.
dm ioctl: fix misbehavior if list_versions races with module loading
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm ioctl: fix misbehavior if list_versions races with module loading
__list_versions will first estimate the required space using the
"dm_target_iterate(list_version_get_needed, &needed)" call and then will
fill the space using the "dm_target_iterate(list_version_get_info,
&iter_info)" call. Each of these calls locks the targets using the
"down_read(&_lock)" and "up_read(&_lock)" calls, however between the first
and second "dm_target_iterate" there is no lock held and the target
modules can be loaded at this point, so the second "dm_target_iterate"
call may need more space
ceph: avoid putting the realm twice when decoding snaps fails
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ceph: avoid putting the realm twice when decoding snaps fails
When decoding the snaps fails it maybe leaving the 'first_realm'
and 'realm' pointing to the same snaprealm memory. And then it'll
put it twice and could cause random use-after-free, BUG_ON, etc
issues.
gfs2: Check sb_bsize_shift after reading superblock
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gfs2: Check sb_bsize_shift after reading superblock
Fuzzers like to scribble over sb_bsize_shift but in reality it's very
unlikely that this field would be corrupted on its own. Nevertheless it
should be checked to avoid the possibility of messy mount errors due to
bad calculations. It's always a fixed value based on the block size so
we can just check that it's the expected value.
Tested with:
mkfs.gfs2 -O -p lock_nolock /dev/vdb
for i in 0 -1 64 65 32 33; do
gfs2_edit -p sb field sb_bsize_shift $i /dev/vdb
mount /dev/vdb /mnt/test && umount /mnt/
9p: trans_fd/p9_conn_cancel: drop client lock earlier
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
9p: trans_fd/p9_conn_cancel: drop client lock earlier
syzbot reported a double-lock here and we no longer need this
lock after requests have been moved off to local list:
just drop the lock earlier.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
9p/trans_fd: always use O_NONBLOCK read/write
syzbot is reporting hung task at p9_fd_close() [1], for p9_mux_poll_stop()
from p9_conn_destroy() from p9_fd_close() is failing to interrupt already
started kernel_read() from p9_fd_read() from p9_read_work() and/or
kernel_write() from p9_fd_write() from p9_write_work() requests.
Since p9_socket_open() sets O_NONBLOCK flag, p9_mux_poll_stop() does not
need to interrupt kernel_read()/kernel_write(). However, since p9_fd_open()
does not set O_NONBLOCK flag, but pipe blocks unless signal is pending,
p9_mux_poll_stop() needs to in
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: fix use-after-free in ntfs_attr_find()
Patch series "ntfs: fix bugs about Attribute", v2.
This patchset fixes three bugs relative to Attribute in record:
Patch 1 adds a sanity check to ensure that, attrs_offset field in first
mft record loading from disk is within bounds.
Patch 2 moves the ATTR_RECORD's bounds checking earlier, to avoid
dereferencing ATTR_RECORD before checking this ATTR_RECORD is within
bounds.
Patch 3 adds an overflow checking to avoid possible forever loop in
ntfs_attr_find().
Without patch 1 and patch 2, the kernel triggersa KASAN use-after-f
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: check overflow when iterating ATTR_RECORDs
Kernel iterates over ATTR_RECORDs in mft record in ntfs_attr_find().
Because the ATTR_RECORDs are next to each other, kernel can get the next
ATTR_RECORD from end address of current ATTR_RECORD, through current
ATTR_RECORD length field.
The problem is that during iteration, when kernel calculates the end
address of current ATTR_RECORD, kernel may trigger an integer overflow bug
in executing `a = (ATTR_RECORD*)((u8*)a + le32_to_cpu(a->length))`. This
may wrap, leading to a forever iteration on 32bit systems.
This patch sol
netfilter: ipset: Fix overflow before widen in the bitmap_ip_create() function.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ipset: Fix overflow before widen in the bitmap_ip_create() function.
When first_ip is 0, last_ip is 0xFFFFFFFF, and netmask is 31, the value of
an arithmetic expression 2 << (netmask - mask_bits - 1) is subject
to overflow due to a failure casting operands to a larger data type
before performing the arithmetic.
Note that it's harmless since the value will be checked at the next step.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/core: Fix ib block iterator counter overflow
When registering a new DMA MR after selecting the best aligned page size
for it, we iterate over the given sglist to split each entry to smaller,
aligned to the selected page size, DMA blocks.
In given circumstances where the sg entry and page size fit certain
sizes and the sg entry is not aligned to the selected page size, the
total size of the aligned pages we need to cover the sg entry is >= 4GB.
Under this circumstances, while iterating page aligned blocks, the

bpf: Fix pointer-leak due to insufficient speculative store bypass mitigation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix pointer-leak due to insufficient speculative store bypass mitigation
To mitigate Spectre v4, 2039f26f3aca ("bpf: Fix leakage due to
insufficient speculative store bypass mitigation") inserts lfence
instructions after 1) initializing a stack slot and 2) spilling a
pointer to the stack.
However, this does not cover cases where a stack slot is first
initialized with a pointer (subject to sanitization) but then
overwritten with a scalar (not subject to sanitization because
the slot was already initialized). In this case, the second write
may be subject to speculative

net: nfc: Fix use-after-free in local_cleanup()
Fix a use-after-free that occurs in kfree_skb() called from
local_cleanup(). This could happen when killing nfc daemon (e.g. neard)
after detaching an nfc device.
When detaching an nfc device, local_cleanup() called from
nfc_llcp_unregister_device() frees local->rx_pending and decreases
local->ref by kref_put() in nfc_llcp_local_put().
In the terminating process, nfc daemon releases all sockets and it leads
to decreasing local->ref. After the last release of local->ref,
local_cleanup() called from local_release() frees local->
net/sched: sch_taprio: fix possible use-after-free
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: sch_taprio: fix possible use-after-free
syzbot reported a nasty crash [1] in net_tx_action() which
made little sense until we got a repro.
This repro installs a taprio qdisc, but providing an
invalid TCA_RATE attribute.
qdisc_create() has to destroy the just initialized
taprio qdisc, and taprio_destroy() is called.
However, the hrtimer used by taprio had already fired,
therefore advance_sched() called __netif_schedule().
Then net_tx_action was trying to use a destroyed qdisc.
We can not undo the __netif_schedule(), so we must wait
until one cpu serviced the
net: mdio: validate parameter addr in mdiobus_get_phy()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mdio: validate parameter addr in mdiobus_get_phy()
The caller may pass any value as addr, what may result in an out-of-bounds
access to array mdio_map. One existing case is stmmac_init_phy() that
may pass -1 as addr. Therefore validate addr before using it.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: betop: check shape of output reports
betopff_init() only checks the total sum of the report counts for each
report field to be at least 4, but hid_betopff_play() expects 4 report
fields.
A device advertising an output report with one field and 4 report counts
would pass the check but crash the kernel with a NULL pointer dereference
in hid_betopff_play().
tracing: Make sure trace_printk() can output as soon as it can be used
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Make sure trace_printk() can output as soon as it can be used
Currently trace_printk() can be used as soon as early_trace_init() is
called from start_kernel(). But if a crash happens, and
"ftrace_dump_on_oops" is set on the kernel command line, all you get will
be:
[ 0.456075] <idle>-0 0dN.2. 347519us : Unknown type 6
[ 0.456075] <idle>-0 0dN.2. 353141us : Unknown type 6
[ 0.456075] <idle>-0 0dN.2. 358684us : Unknown type 6
This is because the trace_printk() event (type 6) hasn't been registered
yet. That gets done via

trace_events_hist: add check for return value of 'create_hist_field'
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
trace_events_hist: add check for return value of 'create_hist_field'
Function 'create_hist_field' is called recursively at
trace_events_hist.c:1954 and can return NULL-value that's why we have
to check it to avoid null pointer dereference.
