Drivers: hv: Don't reset VMBus connection state on error/exit paths
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Drivers: hv: Don't reset VMBus connection state on error/exit paths
In two places, current code forces vmbus_connection.conn_state to
DISCONNECTED prior to calling vmbus_disconnect(). But vmbus_disconnect()
calls vmbus_initiate_unload(), which unloads the VMBus connection
only if the conn_state is CONNECTED. Consequently, the connection
remains and the Hyper-V host might continue to send messages or post
VMBus interrupts.
The problem was introduced in commit 74347a99e73ae ("x86/Hyper-V:
Unload vmbus channel in hv panic callback"), in that
vmbus_initiate_unload() started ch
power: supply: core: prevent unregistering a power supply while a callback runs
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
power: supply: core: prevent unregistering a power supply while a callback runs
Once a power supply is registered, its callbacks can immediately start
firing from other contexts, such as external_power_changed() triggered by
the TCPM stack. If a power supply is unregistered while the callback is
still running, the driver data can already be freed when the callback
tries to access it, leading to a use-after-free.
This happens e.g. when the hardware bus carrying the power supply device
malfunctions (e.g. I2C is hogged down by another malfunctioning device)
immediately after
drm/vc4: hdmi: Move packet RAM enable to PM runtime
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/vc4: hdmi: Move packet RAM enable to PM runtime
Audio can be triggered by the HPD handler and start up before video has
been restored, calling vc4_hdmi_write_infoframe() for the audio infoframe.
vc4_hdmi_write_infoframe() needs Packet RAM to be on to store the
infoframe, however, if the video hasn't been enabled,
vc4_hdmi_encoder_post_crtc_enable() hasn't been called and therefore, the
Packet RAM can be disabled by the time vc4_hdmi_write_infoframe() executes,
causing the following splat:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vsock: treat TCP_CLOSING as once-established
Handle the TCP_ESTABLISHED -> TCP_CLOSING transition on OP_RST, which can
race with the connect loop. Immediately break and return 0 on
ESTABLISHED/CLOSING. The return value of connect() should reflect what
happened up to the point the connection was established or failed. Events
that occur afterwards must not affect it. E.g. even if OP_RW has already
set sk_err, connect() should still return 0, not ENOBUFS because of it.
Adapt the inaccurate comment above signal_pending().

net/rds: don't let the rdma_cm destroy an id RDS still owns on route failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/rds: don't let the rdma_cm destroy an id RDS still owns on route failure
rds_rdma_cm_event_handler_cmn() hands the return value of
rdma_resolve_route() straight back to the rdma_cm on
RDMA_CM_EVENT_ADDR_RESOLVED. A synchronous failure there - -ENOMEM
from the route work allocation, an SA query that cannot be set up, a
RoCE route with no usable device - makes addr_handler() destroy the
id the event was delivered on. That id is ic->i_cm_id, and nothing
clears the pointer: the connection sits in RDS_CONN_CONNECTING with a
freed id until its shutdown calls rdma_disconnect
netlink: reset skb headers before unicast and multicast filtering
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netlink: reset skb headers before unicast and multicast filtering
Socket filters can use SKF_NET_OFF and SKF_LL_OFF to read relative to
an skb's network and MAC headers. Netlink producers may reserve
headroom without resetting those headers, allowing a receiving socket's
filter to read data before the initialized message.
For example, IWPM HELLO replies are allocated with dev_alloc_skb(),
which reserves NET_SKB_PAD bytes. An unprivileged NETLINK_RDMA user can
attach a classic socket filter and disclose this headroom through the
length of the delivered reply. The resets in
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
accel/rocket: clear rdev on device init failure
rocket_probe() stores the return value from rocket_device_init() in the
file-scoped rdev pointer before checking whether it is an error pointer.
If rocket_device_init() fails, rdev is left as an ERR_PTR.
The rdev pointer is also used as the marker for whether the shared rocket
device has already been initialized. A later core probe can therefore see
a non-NULL rdev, skip rocket_device_init(), and dereference the error
pointer when reading rdev->num_cores.
Save the error code and clear rdev before returning from the
rocket_de
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe: skip eviction of a BO with no resource
xe_evict_flags() switches on tbo->resource->mem_type to choose an
eviction placement. An xe BO can reach eviction with no ttm.resource,
e.g. an imported dma-buf BO whose resource was freed during teardown
while its attachment is still live: the exporter then invalidates it via
xe_dma_buf_move_notify() -> xe_bo_evict(), and the switch dereferences a
NULL resource and faults.
A BO with no resource has nothing placed or mapped, so there is nothing
to evict. Return an empty placement (num_placement = 0), mirroring the
handling alr
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe/oa: Zero OA buffer at allocation
ttm_bo_type_kernel BOs are not guaranteed to be zeroed on allocation and
may contain data from previously freed pages. Since the OA buffer is
mmap'able by userspace, this can expose stale kernel memory contents.
Streams opened with DRM_XE_OA_PROPERTY_OA_DISABLED allocate the OA
buffer without calling xe_oa_init_oa_buffer(). Zero the buffer at
allocation to prevent information disclosure through mmap.
The existing zeroing in xe_oa_init_oa_buffer() remains necessary for
zero report-id/timestamp detection on enable/re-enable.

scsi: target: Disable interrupts while holding delayed_cmd_lock
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: Disable interrupts while holding delayed_cmd_lock
target_do_delayed_work() takes dev->delayed_cmd_lock with a plain
spin_lock(). It runs from system_percpu_wq, so interrupts stay enabled
while the lock is held. Every other acquisition of that lock uses
spin_lock_irqsave(): target_handle_task_attr() and
transport_complete_ordered_sync() in target_core_transport.c, and
target_non_ordered_release() in target_core_device.c.
That was safe while every caller of transport_complete_task_attr() ran
in process context: target_complete_ok_work() from target_completion_w
scsi: target: iscsi: Fix race in discovery auth updates
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: iscsi: Fix race in discovery auth updates
Separate configfs opens can concurrently update the discovery AuthMethod
parameter. Both callers may free the same value in
iscsi_update_param_value(), causing a double-free.
Protect the lookup and replacement with the discovery TPG access lock,
as used by the other TPG configfs parameter updates.
sched/core: Call wakeup_preempt() for queued tasks during class change
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched/core: Call wakeup_preempt() for queued tasks during class change
Paul reported recent RCU changes exposed a lost resched where CPU idles
with a rcutorture thread waiting while being completely runnable.
Dumping the rq state at the time of idling with runnable tasks showed
the following:
rq->next_class = &fair_sched_class
rq->nr_running = 1
rq->cfs.h_nr_queued = 0
rq->rt.rt_nr_running = 1
Although the waiting task was an RT task, "rq->next_class" did not point
to rt_sched_class and was stuck at the lower priority fair_sched_class.

ocfs2/dlm: Protect the recovery list during debugfs reads
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2/dlm: Protect the recovery list during debugfs reads
Recovery participant records must remain alive while debug_state_print()
walks reco.node_data and formats their fields. The formatter holds
dlm->spinlock, but the recovery participant list is protected by
dlm_reco_state_lock. In particular, dlm_destroy_recovery_area() detaches
the list under dlm_reco_state_lock and frees the detached records after
releasing it. A concurrent debugfs open can therefore read freed memory.
Protect the participant traversal and field reads in debug_state_print()
with dlm_reco_state_lock,
pipe: preserve existing fasync readers on writer setup failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pipe: preserve existing fasync readers on writer setup failure
F_SETFL and FIOASYNC decide whether to invoke ->fasync() before
pipe_fasync() takes pipe->mutex. Two enables of one O_RDWR FIFO can
therefore both enter the callback.
fasync_helper() allocates before checking for an existing entry. If the
first enable installs both entries, a second enable can update the
reader entry and then fail the allocation for the writer entry. The
error path removes the pre-existing reader entry, clearing FASYNC while
the writer entry remains registered. __fput() then skips ->fasync(), s
scsi: libsas: Fix SMP IO deadlock during HA resume
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: libsas: Fix SMP IO deadlock during HA resume
smp_execute_task_sg() calls pm_runtime_get_sync() on the host before
issuing an SMP command. When that command is itself issued from the HA
resume path, the get_sync() deadlocks: it waits for the ongoing resume
(the device is RPM_RESUMING), while the resume is blocked in
sas_drain_work() waiting for that same SMP IO to complete.
The deadlock needs an expander-attached SATA disk. During

netlink: avoid hashing the network namespace pointer
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netlink: avoid hashing the network namespace pointer
The netlink rhashtable key includes a raw struct net pointer and a
user-controlled port ID. Both /proc/net/netlink and socket diagnostics
expose the table's bucket order. By binding and rebinding chosen
NETLINK_USERSOCK port IDs, an unprivileged reader can distinguish equal
buckets and recover the low bits of the Jenkins hash. Its 32-bit seed
and the limited set of kernel-image slides can then be searched offline
to recover the address of init_net.
