Revert "media: v4l2-dev: fix error handling in __video_register_device()"
This reverts commit 2a934fdb01db6458288fc9386d3d8ceba6dd551a.
The intentions of that patch were good, but it doesn't work.
The idea is that if device_register fails, you have to do a put_device
to let the ref counter release resources.
However, the V4L2 API says that if video_register_device() fails, then
you have to call video_device_release(), which kfree()s the video_device
struct.
But the put_device() will already have freed the struct, so you end
up in a double-free scenario.
There is not re
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: imx: serialize imx_uart_ports[] lifetime
imx_uart_probe() publishes its devm-allocated port in imx_uart_ports[]
before uart_add_one_port() because console setup uses the table. The entry
is not cleared when adding the port fails or after removal, leaving a
dangling pointer.
A sibling probe can register the shared console through that stale entry.
This was reproduced under KASAN on QEMU mcimx6ul-evk by unbinding a
sibling UART, unbinding the console UART and rebinding the sibling.
Keep the entry valid through uart_remove_one_port(), then clear it. Protect

usb: gadget: at91_udc: drain polled-VBUS timer/work before udc is freed
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: at91_udc: drain polled-VBUS timer/work before udc is freed
In polled-VBUS mode (board.vbus_pin && board.vbus_polled), probe arms a
self-restarting cycle: at91_vbus_timer() schedules vbus_timer_work, and
at91_vbus_timer_work() calls at91_vbus_update() and re-arms the timer via
mod_timer(). Both recover the same udc through container_of and dereference
it on every iteration.
Neither teardown path cancels this cycle. udc is devm-allocated, so it is
freed after at91udc_remove() returns, and is likewise freed when probe
fails and devres runs. A timer callback or wo
usb: gadget: u_audio: Fix use-after-free on sound card disconnect
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: u_audio: Fix use-after-free on sound card disconnect
g_audio_cleanup() invokes snd_card_free_when_closed() to initiate sound
card teardown and immediately frees the underlying struct snd_uac_chip
context. However, snd_card_free_when_closed() returns asynchronously
while ALSA control elements (kctls) remain open in userspace.
When userspace control applications access or close these open file
descriptors, kctl callbacks attempt to dereference kctl->private_data
pointing to &uac->c_prm or &uac->p_prm within the freed uac structure,
resulting in a use-after-free
usb: gadget: uvc: fix dangling pointers in uvc_function_bind() and uvc_function_unbind()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: uvc: fix dangling pointers in uvc_function_bind() and uvc_function_unbind()
In uvc_function_bind() error path, we use usb_ep_free_request which
uses uvc->control_req but does not set it to NULL afterwards. Thus,
uvc->control_req is a dangling pointer causing a UAF. Also we do not set
the uvc->control_buf pointer to NULL after freeing it, which is another
dangling pointer. Fix it by setting uvc->control_req to NULL after we run
usb_ep_free_request() and uvc->control_buf to NULL after kfree. Do the
same for uvc_function_unbind().
usb: gadget: f_fs: Prevent deadlock during ep0 read loop
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_fs: Prevent deadlock during ep0 read loop
Currently, ffs_ep0_read() holds ffs->mutex when it prepares to go to
sleep waiting for an event. When no setup events are pending, it calls
wait_event_interruptible_exclusive_locked_irq() with the mutex still
held. The wait macro deliberately drops the waitqueue spinlock before
sleeping but does not drop the mutex.
If a userspace daemon is polling ep0 via read() and the gadget is
asynchronously torn down via configfs (e.g., echo "" > UDC), a
deadlock can occur:
1. The configfs teardown calls functionfs_unbind(), whi
fpga: altera-cvp: Avoid out-of-bounds read in trailing byte write
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fpga: altera-cvp: Avoid out-of-bounds read in trailing byte write
The trailing byte path in altera_cvp_send_block() dereferences a u32
pointer even when only 1-3 bytes remain in the input buffer. If the buffer
ends at a page or scatterlist boundary, this can read past the valid image
data and fault.
Copy the remaining bytes into a zero-initialized u32 before writing the
final word so only valid bytes are read from the input buffer.
HID: sensor-hub: Fix out-of-bounds write in sensor_hub_get_feature
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: sensor-hub: Fix out-of-bounds write in sensor_hub_get_feature
sensor_hub_get_feature() clamps its return value to the caller's buffer
size, but the copy loop still copies field->report_size / 8 bytes for
each report value. A malicious HID descriptor can advertise a large
feature field size while an IIO caller supplies a small stack buffer,
such as a single s32, causing an out-of-bounds write.
HID core stores parsed report values in __s32 slots and clamps extracted
values to 32 bits. Reject feature fields that require more than one slot
per value, guard the total byte
lib/ucs2_string.c: fix out-of-bounds read in ucs2_strnlen()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
lib/ucs2_string.c: fix out-of-bounds read in ucs2_strnlen()
Patch series "lib/ucs2_string.c: fix out-of-bounds read in
ucs2_strnlen()", v2.
This series fixes an off-by-one out-of-bounds read in ucs2_strnlen().
The first patch is the real fix, the second patch comes as a bonus and
fixes the code indentation.
This patch (of 2):
ucs2_strnlen() checks the current character before checking whether the
caller-provided maximum length has been reached. If the input is not
NUL-terminated within that bound, the loop can read one ucs2_char_t past
the limit.
Test the length befo
media: cec: stm32: prevent out-of-bounds write on RX overflow
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: cec: stm32: prevent out-of-bounds write on RX overflow
stm32_rx_done() appends each received CEC byte to rx_msg.msg[] using
rx_msg.len as the write index, incrementing it on every RXBR
(receive-byte-ready) interrupt without checking it against the buffer
size:
cec->rx_msg.msg[cec->rx_msg.len++] = val & 0xFF;
rx_msg.msg[] is a fixed CEC_MAX_MSG_SIZE (16) byte array in struct
cec_msg, and rx_msg.len is only reset on RXACKE/RXOVR or after a
completed message (RXEND). The number of bytes received before RXEND is
decided by the remote CEC device (it sets EOM), not by t
media: vicodec: fix out-of-bounds write in FWHT encoder
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: vicodec: fix out-of-bounds write in FWHT encoder
vidioc_s_fmt_vid_out() sizes the encoder CAPTURE buffer from the
compressed descriptor pixfmt_fwht, whose sizeimage_mult is 3:
coded_w * coded_h * 3 + sizeof(struct fwht_cframe_hdr). fwht_encode_frame()
encodes one plane per component, and an incompressible plane takes the
FWHT_FRAME_UNENCODED path in encode_plane(), copying the plane verbatim.
For a 4-component pixel format all four planes are full resolution
(width_div == height_div == 1), so a frame that forces every plane
through the unencoded fallback writes

nilfs2: fix slab-out-of-bounds in nilfs_direct_propagate after truncation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix slab-out-of-bounds in nilfs_direct_propagate after truncation
Shuangpeng Bai reported that KASAN detected a slab-out-of-bounds error
in nilfs_direct_propagate() during testing.
Analysis revealed that after truncating a file, a node block immediately
below the B-tree root was not deleted. Instead, it remained in the B-tree
node cache in a dirty state. The log writer subsequently detected this
block and incorrectly invoked nilfs_direct_propagate() on it, which is
designed to handle only data blocks in direct mapping.
B-tree nodes in the cache are managed by vi
PCI/sysfs: Fix out-of-bounds read in pci_write_legacy_io()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI/sysfs: Fix out-of-bounds read in pci_write_legacy_io()
pci_write_legacy_io() loads 4 bytes from the kernfs write buffer
regardless of how many bytes userspace wrote:
if (count != 1 && count != 2 && count != 4)
return -EINVAL;
return pci_legacy_write(bus, off, *(u32 *)buf, count);
kernfs_fop_write_iter() allocates the buffer with kmalloc(len + 1),
so a 1-byte write to the legacy_io sysfs file allocates 2 bytes and
the unconditional u32 load reads up to 2 bytes past the end of the
allocation, which KASAN reports as a slab-out-of-bounds read.
Similarly, a
ubifs: fix out-of-bounds read in signature length check
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ubifs: fix out-of-bounds read in signature length check
ubifs_sb_verify_signature() bounds the on-disk ubifs_sig_node->len field
before handing the signature payload to verify_pkcs7_signature(), but the
check has the wrong sign:
if (le32_to_cpu(signode->len) > snod->len + sizeof(struct ubifs_sig_node))
The signature bytes start sizeof(struct ubifs_sig_node) (UBIFS_SIG_NODE_SZ,
64 bytes) into the node, so the payload is at most
snod->len - sizeof(struct ubifs_sig_node)
bytes long. Adding the header size instead of subtracting it accepts a
declared length up to 2 * UBIF
zram: fix out-of-bounds access in read_block_state()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
zram: fix out-of-bounds access in read_block_state()
read_block_state() calculates nr_pages before taking dev_lock. If the
device is reset and reinitialized with a smaller disksize before lock
acquisition, nr_pages still describes the old table. The subsequent loop
can then call slot_lock() past the end of the newly allocated table.
Read disksize after acquiring dev_lock and checking that the device is
initialized. The read lock then keeps the table and its bound stable for
the duration of the scan.
zram: fix out-of-bounds access in writeback_store()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
zram: fix out-of-bounds access in writeback_store()
Patch series "zram: fix stale scan bounds after reinitialization".
Both writeback_store() and read_block_state() derive their table scan
bounds from zram->disksize before acquiring dev_lock. If the device is
reset and reinitialized with a smaller disksize between that read and lock
acquisition, the bound can describe the old table while the scan operates
on the new one. This can lead to out-of-bounds slot accesses.
Move both bound calculations under dev_lock so each bound remains
consistent with the table throughout it
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: check truncate permission under inode lock
nfsd_setattr() checks whether a size update needs NFSD_MAY_TRUNC
before it takes inode_lock(). The comparison uses the file size sampled
by that unlocked read, but the actual ATTR_SIZE update is applied later
under inode_lock() by notify_change().
This leaves a TOCTOU window for append-only files. If a client sends a
SETATTR that does not shrink the file at the time of the unlocked
sample, a concurrent append can extend the file before nfsd_setattr()
takes inode_lock(). notify_change() then applies a real truncation
without
NFSD: restart ssc_expire_umount walk after dropping nfsd_ssc_lock
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: restart ssc_expire_umount walk after dropping nfsd_ssc_lock
nfsd4_ssc_expire_umount() walks nn->nfsd_ssc_mount_list with
list_for_each_entry_safe(ni, tmp, ...). For each expired entry it
sets nsui_busy = true, drops nfsd_ssc_lock to run mntput() on the
source vfsmount, then reacquires the lock to list_del + kfree the
entry and continue iterating via the macro's saved tmp pointer.
The nsui_busy flag protects the current ni from concurrent
nfsd4_ssc_setup_dul() finders during the lock-drop window, but it
does not pin tmp. Another nfsd RPC thread that fails its source
NFSD: remove flawed WARN_ON_ONCE from nfsd_mode_check
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: remove flawed WARN_ON_ONCE from nfsd_mode_check
The header for commit e75b23f9e323 ("nfsd: check d_can_lookup in
fh_verify of directories") details the assumption that justified
adding the WARN_ON_ONCE to nfsd_mode_check(), that assumption is
invalid (in the case of NFS reexport).
When NFSD exports an NFS filesystem it is very possible for
nfsd_mode_check() to encounter a @dentry that doesn't have
i_op->lookup (see nfs_fhget()'s NFS_ATTR_FATTR_MOUNTPOINT and
NFS_ATTR_FATTR_V4_REFERRAL handling, and d_flags_for_inode()).
So remove nfsd_mode_check()'s WARN_ON_ONCE().
NFSv4.1: fix layout segment leak on the pnfs_layout_process() forget path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSv4.1: fix layout segment leak on the pnfs_layout_process() forget path
When the server returns a new layout stateid while a valid one is still
held, pnfs_layout_process() calls pnfs_mark_matching_lsegs_return() on
the on-stack free_me list and jumps to out_forget. Segments whose
reference count drops to zero are unlinked from lo->plh_segs and moved
to free_me by mark_lseg_invalid(); for an idle cached segment the layout
header holds the only reference, so this happens on the first decrement.
out_forget never drains free_me -- only the success path calls
