x86/mtrr: Check if fixed MTRRs exist before saving them
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/mtrr: Check if fixed MTRRs exist before saving them
MTRRs have an obsolete fixed variant for fine grained caching control
of the 640K-1MB region that uses separate MSRs. This fixed variant has
a separate capability bit in the MTRR capability MSR.
So far all x86 CPUs which support MTRR have this separate bit set, so it
went unnoticed that mtrr_save_state() does not check the capability bit
before accessing the fixed MTRR MSRs.
Though on a CPU that does not support the fixed MTRR capability this
results in a #GP. The #GP itself is harmless because the RDMSR fault is

fuse: Initialize beyond-EOF page contents before setting uptodate
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fuse: Initialize beyond-EOF page contents before setting uptodate
fuse_notify_store(), unlike fuse_do_readpage(), does not enable page
zeroing (because it can be used to change partial page contents).
So fuse_notify_store() must be more careful to fully initialize page
contents (including parts of the page that are beyond end-of-file)
before marking the page uptodate.
The current code can leave beyond-EOF page contents uninitialized, which
makes these uninitialized page contents visible to userspace via mmap().
This is an information leak, but only affects systems which
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kcm: Serialise kcm_sendmsg() for the same socket.
syzkaller reported UAF in kcm_release(). [0]
The scenario is
1. Thread A builds a skb with MSG_MORE and sets kcm->seq_skb.
2. Thread A resumes building skb from kcm->seq_skb but is blocked
by sk_stream_wait_memory()
3. Thread B calls sendmsg() concurrently, finishes building kcm->seq_skb
and puts the skb to the write queue
4. Thread A faces an error and finally frees skb that is already in the
write queue
5. kcm_release() does double-free the skb in the write queue

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ctnetlink: use helper function to calculate expect ID
Delete expectation path is missing a call to the nf_expect_get_id()
helper function to calculate the expectation ID, otherwise LSB of the
expectation object address is leaked to userspace.

fou: remove warn in gue_gro_receive on unsupported protocol
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fou: remove warn in gue_gro_receive on unsupported protocol
Drop the WARN_ON_ONCE inn gue_gro_receive if the encapsulated type is
not known or does not have a GRO handler.
Such a packet is easily constructed. Syzbot generates them and sets
off this warning.
Remove the warning as it is expected and not actionable.
The warning was previously reduced from WARN_ON to WARN_ON_ONCE in
commit 270136613bf7 ("fou: Do WARN_ON_ONCE in gue_gro_receive for bad
proto callbacks").
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
jfs: Fix shift-out-of-bounds in dbDiscardAG
When searching for the next smaller log2 block, BLKSTOL2() returned 0,
causing shift exponent -1 to be negative.
This patch fixes the issue by exiting the loop directly when negative
shift is found.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: Fix null-ptr-deref in reuseport_add_sock().
syzbot reported a null-ptr-deref while accessing sk2->sk_reuseport_cb in
reuseport_add_sock(). [0]
The repro first creates a listener with SO_REUSEPORT. Then, it creates
another listener on the same port and concurrently closes the first
listener.
The second listen() calls reuseport_add_sock() with the first listener as
sk2, where sk2->sk_reuseport_cb is not expected to be cleared concurrently,
but the close() does clear it by reuseport_detach_sock().
The problem is SCTP does not properly synchronise reuseport_alloc(),

net: bridge: mcast: wait for previous gc cycles when removing port
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bridge: mcast: wait for previous gc cycles when removing port
syzbot hit a use-after-free[1] which is caused because the bridge doesn't
make sure that all previous garbage has been collected when removing a
port. What happens is:
CPU 1 CPU 2
start gc cycle remove port
acquire gc lock first
wait for lock
call br_multicasg_gc() directly
acquire lock now but free port
the port can be freed
while grp timers still
running
Make sure all previous gc cycles have finished by using flus
gpio: prevent potential speculation leaks in gpio_device_get_desc()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: prevent potential speculation leaks in gpio_device_get_desc()
Userspace may trigger a speculative read of an address outside the gpio
descriptor array.
Users can do that by calling gpio_ioctl() with an offset out of range.
Offset is copied from user and then used as an array index to get
the gpio descriptor without sanitization in gpio_device_get_desc().
This change ensures that the offset is sanitized by using
array_index_nospec() to mitigate any possibility of speculative
information leaks.

drm/amd/display: Add null checks for 'stream' and 'plane' before dereferencing
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Add null checks for 'stream' and 'plane' before dereferencing
This commit adds null checks for the 'stream' and 'plane' variables in
the dcn30_apply_idle_power_optimizations function. These variables were
previously assumed to be null at line 922, but they were used later in
the code without checking if they were null. This could potentially lead
to a null pointer dereference, which would cause a crash.
The null checks ensure that 'stream' and 'plane' are not null before
they are used, preventing potential crashes.
Fixes the below static smatch checker:

media: xc2028: avoid use-after-free in load_firmware_cb()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: xc2028: avoid use-after-free in load_firmware_cb()
syzkaller reported use-after-free in load_firmware_cb() [1].
The reason is because the module allocated a struct tuner in tuner_probe(),
and then the module initialization failed, the struct tuner was released.
A worker which created during module initialization accesses this struct
tuner later, it caused use-after-free.
The process is as follows:
task-6504 worker_thread
tuner_probe <= alloc dvb_frontend [2]

request_firmware_nowait <= create a worker

serial: core: check uartclk for zero to avoid divide by zero
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: core: check uartclk for zero to avoid divide by zero
Calling ioctl TIOCSSERIAL with an invalid baud_base can
result in uartclk being zero, which will result in a
divide by zero error in uart_get_divisor(). The check for
uartclk being zero in uart_set_info() needs to be done
before other settings are made as subsequent calls to
ioctl TIOCSSERIAL for the same port would be impacted if
the uartclk check was done where uartclk gets set.
