dm-crypt: fix a tiny race condition in crypt_dec_pending
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm-crypt: fix a tiny race condition in crypt_dec_pending
crypt_dec_pending reads io->error before calling atomic_dec_and_test.
Another context, for example crypt_endio called from an interrupt, may
set io->error and drop its reference between the read and the
decrement. crypt_dec_pending then drops the last reference and completes
the bio with the stale status - so a read that failed and was never
decrypted, or a write that failed, is reported as successful.
The read was placed before the decrement by commit b35f8caa0890 ("dm

dm-integrity: fix infinite loop on discard with large tag size
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm-integrity: fix infinite loop on discard with large tag size
When integrity_metadata handles a discard, it fills a buffer with
DISCARD_FILLER and writes it over the tags, max_blocks blocks at a
time. If the kmalloc fails, the buffer is the on-stack array
checksums_onstack and max_size is set to HASH_MAX_DIGESTSIZE. So if the
tag size is larger than HASH_MAX_DIGESTSIZE, max_blocks is zero, bi_size
is never decremented and the loop never terminates.
Fix this by using sizeof(checksums_onstack) as max_size. The array has
MAX_TAG_SIZE bytes since commit b93b6643e9b5 ("dm inte
mac802154: fix data race and NULL deref on local->assoc_dev
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mac802154: fix data race and NULL deref on local->assoc_dev
local->assoc_dev is shared between the association path and the
association-response worker without common synchronization.
mac802154_perform_association() stores the coordinator pointer and waits
for a response. Its timeout and error paths clear the pointer and return
to mac802154_associate(), which may then free the coordinator object.
Meanwhile, mac802154_rx_mac_cmd_worker() may observe the associating bit
and enter mac802154_process_association_resp(), which dereferences
assoc_dev.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/iucv: fix the recvmsg window update
iucv_sock_recvmsg() sends the HiperSockets-only AF_IUCV_FLAG_WIN without
testing the transport, so on a classic z/VM socket iucv_send_ctrl() sizes
the skb through a NULL iucv->hs_dev. SO_MSGLIMIT accepts 1, so msglimit / 2
is zero and one recvmsg() on its own socket is enough for an unprivileged
process to take a spurious disconnect.
It also calls iucv_send_ctrl() under spin_lock_bh(&message_q.lock), which
allocates GFP_KERNEL inside a section the code treats as atomic. Sending
outside that lock lets two recvmsg() reach afiucv_hs_sen
xfs: don't hold buffer locks across sync transaction commit in xfs_sync_sb_buf
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfs: don't hold buffer locks across sync transaction commit in xfs_sync_sb_buf
xfs_sync_sb_buf() holds sb/rtsb buffer locks across a synchronous
xfs_trans_commit(), which flushes the CIL push workqueue internally.
If shutdown occurs during the CIL push, xfs_buf_item_unpin() needs to
lock these buffers to fail them, causing a deadlock:
setlabel: holds buf lock -> flush_workqueue(xfs-cil)
CIL push worker: xfs_buf_item_unpin -> xfs_buf_lock(same buf)
Remove the xfs_trans_bhold() calls so that commit releases the buffer
locks normally. After the sync commit, r

xfs: fix capability check in xfs
An user reported a bug where he managed to evade group's quota
by changing a file's gid to a different group id the same user
belonged to, even though quotas were enforced on both gids and the
file's size was big enough to exceed the quota's hardlimit.
Commit eba0549bc7d1 replaced a capable() call by a
has_capability_noaudit() to prevent unnecessary selinux audit messages.
Turns out that both calls have slightly different semantics even though
their documentation seems similar. Where in a nutshell:

io_uring/cancel: don't spin on local work the task can't run
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/cancel: don't spin on local work the task can't run
io_uring_cancel_generic() refuses to sleep while any ring on the exiting
task's tctx has local work pending. It assumes the task is that ring's
submitter and that the next io_uring_try_cancel_requests() pass will run
the work. This does not hold for a ring that was still
IORING_SETUP_R_DISABLED when the task got its tctx node from
io_uring_create() or io_ringfd_register(). The submitter is set later by
IORING_REGISTER_ENABLE_RINGS, possibly from another task, and only the
submitter may run local work on an IORING_
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
selinux: fix BPF token permission checks
Avoid multiple lookups of the bpffs creator SID using the token's file
descriptor when the same information can be found via the resolved
path/dentry (in selinux_bpf_token_create()) or the token itself (in
selinux_bpf_map_create() and selinux_bpf_prog_load()). Not only does
this simplify the code, it avoids potential TOCTOU issues if the user
changes the token file descriptor passed into the kernel.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: validate chunk length in the inqueue parser
SCTP chunks always include a four-byte generic header, but
sctp_inq_pop() currently accepts shorter declared lengths. A zero-length
chunk leaves chunk_end at the current header.
When ASCONF is covered by the association's SCTP-AUTH policy,
sctp_assoc_bh_rcv() can continue before the state machine performs its
normal chunk-length check. sctp_inq_pop() then returns the same malformed
chunk repeatedly and the receive softirq can lock up.
A remote SCTP peer can trigger this after establishing an association on

page_pool: keep frag_offset aligned for odd-sized requests
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
page_pool: keep frag_offset aligned for odd-sized requests
page_pool_alloc_frag_netmem() rounds the requested fragment size with
size = ALIGN(size, dma_get_cache_alignment());
dma_get_cache_alignment() returns 1 unless the architecture defines
ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN, which DMA-coherent architectures such as x86 do not.
There the ALIGN() is a no-op and pool->frag_offset advances by the raw,
unrounded size.
A single caller asking for an odd size then leaves frag_offset misaligned
for every fragment carved out of that page afterwards. The pool is shared,
so the damage is not c
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/ctcm: Prevent XID null dereference
The mpc_validate_xid() function sets grp->saved_xid2->xid2_flag2 to 0x40
to signal XID validation error. If peer XID is NULL or r/w channel
pairing mismatch happens, grp->saved_xid2 is never initialized. An
attempt to set the flag in such case leads to NULL dereference.
Fix this by using the always available priv->xid->xid2_flag2 instead of
grp->saved_xid2->xid2_flag2 for validation errors.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/pai: Handle multiple PMU stop callback invocations
Handle the following scenario:
The kernel protects itself against a very high sampling load and
throttles the sampling using:
perf_event_throttle() --> PMU->stop()
Shortly later the scheduler may terminate the task and removes it from the
CPU. It again calls
PMU->stop()
which results in two invocations of PMU->stop() called back to back.
Protect against this and check the PERF_HES_STOPPED bit on function
entry. If it is already set return.
Clear bit PERF_HES_STOPPED in PMU->start().
Prohibit ioctl(fd, PERF_EV
s390/pci: Fix leak of uninitialized kernel data in SCLP report
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/pci: Fix leak of uninitialized kernel data in SCLP report
While report_error_write() checks that the provided buffer is at least
as large as the header struct, but not that it is large enough to
contain the report with the length claimed by report->length. If
user-space provides a short buffer, meaning a larger report->length than
the actually written payload, up to around 4K of kernel data from past
the kmalloc(len + 1) sized buffer allocated in kernfs_fop_write_iter()
will leak into the SCLP report.
However, as the entity processing the SCLP is privileged and able t
vsock/virtio: validate packet source for connected sockets
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vsock/virtio: validate packet source for connected sockets
virtio_transport_recv_pkt() looks up sockets first by the full source and
destination tuple, then by destination only in the bound table. The
fallback is needed for listening and connecting sockets, but sockets remain
in the bound table after connect(), so it can also return a non-listening
socket.
The fallback does not validate the source address. In TCP_SYN_SENT, a
RESPONSE from an unrelated source can transition the victim socket to
TCP_ESTABLISHED while its stored remote address remains unchanged.

vsock/vmci: validate packet source for connected sockets
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vsock/vmci: validate packet source for connected sockets
vmci_transport_recv_stream_cb() looks up sockets first by the full source
and destination tuple, then by destination only in the bound table. The
fallback can select a non-listening socket without checking whether the
packet came from its stored peer.
This was reproduced with two VMCI contexts. A RST from the context not
stored in a TCP_SYN_SENT socket reset that socket after it was selected by
the destination-only lookup.
VMCI can process notification packets in bottom-half context when the
socket is not owned by u
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv4: avoid divide by zero in fib_rebalance
fib_rebalance() computes the total eligible nexthop weight in one pass
and programs upper bounds in a second pass. A concurrent change to
ignore_routes_with_linkdown can make the first pass return zero while
the second pass sees an eligible nexthop, resulting in division by zero.
If the first pass reports a zero total, set each nexthop upper bound to
-1 and skip the division. This matches the IPv6 fix in commit
d2c26c2911dd ("ipv6: avoid divide by zero in rt6_multipath_rebalance")
and preserves the lock-free rebalance path.
KVM: x86/mmu: Cope with the SS bit being set in #NPF exit codes
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86/mmu: Cope with the SS bit being set in #NPF exit codes
When running Hyper-V from Windows 11, KVM is seeing the SS bit set
in nested page fault error codes produced for shadowed NPT. The AMD
manual is unclear about when SS is set, including whether it can be set
when SupervisorShadowStackEn (bit 6) is not set in the MISC_CTL field
of the VMCB.
Nevertheless, the unexpected SS bit causes out of bounds accesses in
permission_fault(), seen as either WARNs or UBSAN reports:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu/userq: actually validate userq BOs
This was supposed to loop over the individual evicted list, as the
kernel and always_valid evicted lists were already handled in
amdgpu_vm_validate.
Without this, BOs that were created and evicted before a userq was made
would never end up in an eviction fence rearm.
Also add the missing ref to the BO before drm_exec locks and refs it.

drm/i915/dmc: Harden DMC firmware payload parsing
Validate the conversion of the DMC firmware size from dwords to bytes

header so malformed firmware is caught early. Also set dmc_fw_size only
after the payload allocation succeeds.

net: bridge: mcast: don't truncate the port group walk on teardown
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bridge: mcast: don't truncate the port group walk on teardown
__br_multicast_disable_port_ctx() and br_multicast_del_port() walk
port->mglist with hlist_for_each_entry_safe(). However,
br_multicast_find_del_pg() can also delete other entries from the same
list through br_multicast_fwd_src_remove() or __fwd_del_star_excl().
If such an entry is the iterator's saved next node, hlist_del_init()
clears its ->next and terminates the walk early. The reproducer triggers
this in both teardown walks, leaving port groups in the bridge mdb with
a dangling ->key.port after del_nbp
