Bluetooth: mgmt: fix UAF in pair command cancellation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: mgmt: fix UAF in pair command cancellation
The pairing completion and authentication failure callbacks look up the
pending MGMT_OP_PAIR_DEVICE command by walking hdev->mgmt_pending. The
lookup returned a command that was still linked on the shared pending list,
without keeping mgmt_pending_lock held for the later dereference and
removal.
A concurrent MGMT_OP_CANCEL_PAIR_DEVICE request can remove and free the
same pending command before the callback uses it. The reverse race is also
possible when cancel_pair_device() gets a command from pending_find() and a
callb
Bluetooth: HIDP: reject frames without a transaction header
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: HIDP: reject frames without a transaction header
hidp_recv_ctrl_frame() and hidp_recv_intr_frame() read skb->data[0]
before checking that the L2CAP SDU contains a transaction header. A
connected HIDP peer can send an empty basic-mode SDU and make both paths
use an uninitialized byte from skb tailroom.
KMSAN reports the use in hidp_session_run(), with the uninitialized value
originating in __alloc_skb() through vhci_write(). The control path
produces two reports and the interrupt path produces one.
The byte can also be controlled by a malformed lower-layer packe
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: HIDP: validate numbered report payloads
When hidp_get_raw_report() waits for a numbered report,
hidp_process_data() compares the expected report number with skb->data[0].
A connected HIDP peer can reply with only a DATA transaction header,
leaving the skb empty after the header is removed.
KMSAN reports an uninitialized-value use in hidp_session_run(), with the
value originating in __alloc_skb() through vhci_write(). The transaction
header checks remove the empty-frame reports, but this report remains until
the payload check is added.

ALSA: 6fire: Fix UAF at error handling during probe
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: 6fire: Fix UAF at error handling during probe
Although 6fire driver had a few fixes for dealing with the early error
handling during the probe phase, it forgot a pending URB before
freeing the resources, which may lead to a UAF.
This patch addresses it by doing the almost same cleanup procedure
like the normal disconnect phase at the error path.
ALSA: usb-audio: fix OOB write in snd_usbmidi_akai_output()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: fix OOB write in snd_usbmidi_akai_output()
snd_usbmidi_akai_output() computes its fill-loop bound
buf_end = ep->max_transfer - MAX_AKAI_SYSEX_LEN - 1;
as a signed int, so a small device-advertised bulk-OUT max_transfer
makes buf_end negative. The loop guard then compares the u32
urb->transfer_buffer_length against that negative int: the usual
arithmetic conversion turns buf_end into a large unsigned value, so the
guard stays true and each iteration keeps appending SysEx framing and
payload bytes past the end of the URB transfer buffer, which is only
max
ALSA: usb-audio: Fix DMA buffer out-of-bounds write when fill_max is set
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: Fix DMA buffer out-of-bounds write when fill_max is set
When a USB audio endpoint requests full packet transfers via the fill_max
descriptor flag, data_ep_set_params() promotes ep->curpacksize to
ep->maxpacksize. However, maxsize is left at the original sample-rate
derived value.
Since u->buffer_size is allocated as maxsize * packets, the resulting
DMA buffer is far too small for the requested transfer length. When the
USB host controller streams up to curpacksize bytes per packet, it writes
past the end of the buffer via DMA, corrupting kernel heap memory
ALSA: usb-audio: Clamp frame size in implicit-feedback mode
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: Clamp frame size in implicit-feedback mode
snd_usb_handle_sync_urb() scales received sync packet sizes by the sender's
stride and stores the result directly in out_packet->packet_size[i]. If a
connected USB device sends an oversized sync packet, this frame count can
exceed ep->maxframesize.
The un-clamped frame count then propagates to the playback endpoint queue,
potentially driving packet transfers beyond the endpoint's hardware frame
limits.
Cap the calculated frame count against ep->maxframesize in
snd_usb_handle_sync_urb() to prevent oversized packet
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fou: Fix use-after-free in fou_create()
fou_create() publishes struct fou through sk_user_data before adding the
new FOU port to the per-netns list. If fou_add_to_port_list() fails,
the error path frees fou while it is still reachable through
sk_user_data. A concurrent receive can then dereference the freed
object in fou_from_sock().
This ordering issue was previously noted in the linked discussion.
The failure is reachable when local port 0 is requested. Each socket
binds to a different ephemeral port, but fou_cfg_cmp() compares the
requested port 0 and reports -EALRE
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
igbvf: Fix leak in TX DMA error cleanup
If an error is encountered while mapping TX buffers, the driver should
unmap any buffers already mapped for that skb.
Because count is incremented before each frag mapping, it will always
match the correct number of unmappings needed when dma_error is reached.
Decrementing count before the while loop in dma_error causes an
off-by-one error. If any mapping was successful before an unsuccessful
mapping, exactly one DMA mapping (the head) would leak.
This bug was introduced by a 2010 fix for an endless loop in dma_error.

wifi: mwifiex: use the subframe length when parsing A-MSDU TDLS frames
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mwifiex: use the subframe length when parsing A-MSDU TDLS frames
mwifiex_11n_dispatch_amsdu_pkt() splits an A-MSDU with
ieee80211_amsdu_to_8023s() and walks the resulting subframes. For each
subframe it passes the subframe data pointer to
mwifiex_process_tdls_action_frame(), but pairs it with skb->len, the
length of the A-MSDU parent, instead of rx_skb->len:

binfmt_misc: restore write access when removing an entry
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
binfmt_misc: restore write access when removing an entry
Registering an entry with the MISC_FMT_OPEN_FILE flag opens the
interpreter via open_exec() which denies write access to it for as
long as the entry exists. Removing the entry closes the interpreter
file via filp_close() but never restores write access, leaving the
inode's i_writecount permanently negative. Opening the interpreter
for writing keeps failing with ETXTBSY long after the entry is gone
until the inode is evicted from the inode cache.

binfmt_misc: reject a flag character as the field delimiter
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
binfmt_misc: reject a flag character as the field delimiter
The registration string starts with a user chosen delimiter that
separates the individual fields. So that the field parsers terminate
even on a truncated string create_entry() pads the buffer with that
same delimiter:
memset(buf + count, del, 8);
Most fields are scanned for the delimiter with strchr()/scanarg() and
happily stop on the padding. The flags field is different: instead of
scanning for the delimiter check_special_flags() consumes the flag
characters 'P', 'O', 'C' and 'F' and stops at the first byte th

binfmt_misc: don't let an 'F' entry pin its own instance
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
binfmt_misc: don't let an 'F' entry pin its own instance
An entry registered with 'F' opens its interpreter at registration time
and holds that file until the entry is freed. Any entry nobody removes
by hand only gets closed once the binfmt_misc superblock is shut down.
If the interpreter lives on a mount that keeps that superblock alive the
two pin each other:
binfmt_misc sb -> inode -> entry -> interp_file -> vfsmount -> binfmt_misc sb
TL;DR the file is never closed. Once the mount namespace is gone there
is nothing left to unregister through either.

mm/huge_memory: unlock i_mmap_rwsem before releasing after-split folios
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/huge_memory: unlock i_mmap_rwsem before releasing after-split folios
__folio_split() keeps dereferencing the mapping after the split:
shmem_uncharge(mapping->host) and remap_page() while the folios are still
frozen/locked, and i_mmap_unlock_read(mapping) at the very end, after the
after-split folios have been unlocked and freed.
Nothing holds an inode reference across that. The split relies on @folio
-- which the beyond-EOF drop loop never removes, as it starts at
folio_next(folio) -- staying locked and in the page cache to hold off
eviction. But the unlock loop unloc
net: bridge: stop fast-leave after deleting a port group
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bridge: stop fast-leave after deleting a port group
br_multicast_leave_group() iterates mp->ports with pp = &p->next in
its fast-leave path. After br_multicast_del_pg() removes p,
continuing the loop advances pp through the deleted entry.
If multicast-to-unicast was enabled, the bridge can hold multiple port
groups for the same port and group with different source MAC
addresses. Once multicast-to-unicast is disabled,
br_port_group_equal() matches those entries by port only. A fast leave
can then delete one entry and continue from its stale next pointer,
leaving mp->po
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: pktgen: fix proc entry use-after-free
pktgen_change_name() replaces pkt_dev->entry while holding t->if_lock.
pktgen_remove_device() removes the same entry before
_rem_dev_from_if_list() takes that lock.
This allows the following interleaving:

proc_remove(pkt_dev->entry)

vxlan: use neigh_ha_snapshot() in route_shortcircuit()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vxlan: use neigh_ha_snapshot() in route_shortcircuit()
The neighbour hardware address n->ha can be updated asynchronously by the
neighbour subsystem, protected by n->ha_lock seqlock. Reading n->ha without
holding the seqlock loop can lead to torn reads or reading a partially updated
MAC address.
Use neigh_ha_snapshot() in route_shortcircuit() to safely copy n->ha under
read_seqbegin()/read_seqretry() lock protection before using it.
Note that arp_reduce() and neigh_reduce() seem to have the same issue
left for future patches.
vxlan: use pskb_network_may_pull() for transmit path header pulls
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vxlan: use pskb_network_may_pull() for transmit path header pulls
In vxlan_xmit(), arp_reduce(), and vxlan_mdb_entry_skb_get(), pskb_may_pull() was
being called to verify the availability of network layer headers (ARP, IPv6/ND,
IP/IPv6 MDB keys).
However, during transmit skb->data points to the MAC header, so skb_network_offset(skb)
is ETH_HLEN (14 bytes). Using pskb_may_pull(skb, len) only checks len bytes from skb->data
rather than skb_network_offset(skb) + len, which can leave part of the network header
in non-linear frags.
Replace these remaining pskb_may_pull() calls
vxlan: use pskb_network_may_pull() in route_shortcircuit()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vxlan: use pskb_network_may_pull() in route_shortcircuit()
route_shortcircuit() currently calls pskb_may_pull(skb, sizeof(struct iphdr))
(or ipv6hdr), which checks if bytes are available starting from skb->data.
However, in vxlan_xmit(), skb->data points to the MAC header, so
skb_network_offset(skb) is ETH_HLEN (14 bytes). Using pskb_may_pull(skb, 20)
only checks 20 bytes from skb->data (which is 14 bytes MAC header + 6 bytes of
IP header), leaving the rest of the IP header potentially un-pulled in non-linear
frags. Subsequent dereferences of ip_hdr(skb)->daddr can read be
tracing: Check return value of __register_event() in trace_module_add_events()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Check return value of __register_event() in trace_module_add_events()
trace_module_add_events() ignores the return value of __register_event()
and unconditionally calls __add_event_to_tracers() for each event.
If __register_event() fails (for example, if event_init() fails), the
trace_event_call is not added to ftrace_events list, but
__add_event_to_tracers() still creates a trace_event_file pointing to it.
If module loading subsequently fails and module memory is freed, tracing
state retains a stale trace_event_call pointer in trace_event_file,
leading to a use-a
