tipc: hold a reference to nodes found by link name
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tipc: hold a reference to nodes found by link name
tipc_node_find_by_name() returns a node after dropping its RCU read lock
without taking a reference. The LINK_SET, LINK_GET and LINK_RESET_STATS
handlers then lock and access the node, racing with timer-driven cleanup of
a down peer. Generic netlink serialization does not exclude the node
timer.
The following interleaving can leave a handler using a freed node:
CPU 0: find the node under RCU and release the node read lock
CPU 1: tipc_node_timeout() clears the links and unlinks the down node
CPU 1: drop the list an
selinux: preserve NATIVE_LABELS on already-initialized sb in set_mnt_opts
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
selinux: preserve NATIVE_LABELS on already-initialized sb in set_mnt_opts
When an NFSv4 filesystem exported with security_label is mounted a
second time, sget_fc() returns the existing superblock and
nfs_get_root() calls security_sb_set_mnt_opts() again on it. Since the
superblock is already SB_INITIALIZED, selinux_set_mnt_opts() takes an
early exit without setting SECURITY_LSM_NATIVE_LABELS in
*set_kern_flags. nfs_get_root() then sees kflags without
SECURITY_LSM_NATIVE_LABELS set and clears NFS_CAP_SECURITY_LABEL on
the shared nfs_server, silently disabling per-file labeli
gpio: xilinx: fix runtime PM leak on request error path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: xilinx: fix runtime PM leak on request error path
pm_runtime_get_sync() leaves the usage counter incremented even when it
fails, and xgpio_request() returns the error without dropping it.
gpiolib does not call ->free() when ->request() fails, so xgpio_free(),
which holds the only matching pm_runtime_put(), never runs. The reference
is leaked and the controller can no longer runtime-suspend, so its clock
stays enabled.
Switch to pm_runtime_resume_and_get(), which only increments the usage
counter on success.
ibmveth: h_free logical LAN on open-fail after register
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ibmveth: h_free logical LAN on open-fail after register
ibmveth_open() registers the logical LAN, then allocates the RX
buffer pools. A pool failure jumps to out_free_buffer_pools without
h_free_logical_lan(), so PHYP still owns the buffer-list page when
it is unmapped. request_irq() failure already issued the hypercall
before taking the same label.
Move that h_free to the shared post-register unwind so both paths
deregister before the buffer list is unmapped.
ice: fix metadata_dst refcount handling on representor teardown
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: fix metadata_dst refcount handling on representor teardown
ice_eswitch_release_repr() uses metadata_dst_free() to release the
representor's metadata_dst. metadata_dst_free() directly frees the
underlying memory without checking the dst_entry refcount.
When ice_eswitch_port_start_xmit() processes a packet, it takes a
reference via dst_hold() and attaches the metadata_dst to the skb.
If the representor is torn down while packets are still queued on
the lower device (e.g. in a qdisc), the metadata_dst is freed while
references are still held.
Use dst_release() instead,
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ip6_gre: remove obsolete ERSPAN PMTU update
A tc tunnel_key action can attach a METADATA_IP_TUNNEL dst to an skb,
and mirred can redirect it to a native ip6erspan device. The legacy PMTU
update in ip6erspan_tunnel_xmit() treats that metadata dst as a route.
Since it has no output device, dst_dev(dst)->mtu dereferences NULL.
On v7.2 with KASAN, an initial UID/GID 65534 process with CapEff 0 used
self-created user and network namespaces to trigger:

KEYS: Fix add_key() race with keyring restriction
__key_create_or_update() snapshots keyring->restrict_link before taking
the destination keyring's semaphore. keyring_restrict() installs a
restriction while holding that semaphore.
This allows a writer to observe no restriction, wait for the keyring
owner to install a reject-all restriction and return successfully, and
then link a key using the stale NULL snapshot. The writer only needs
write permission on the destination keyring.
Move the restrict_link read after __key_link_lock() and
__key_link_begin(). The read and t
memstick: core: wait for request completion before freeing card
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
memstick: core: wait for request completion before freeing card
In memstick_alloc_card() and memstick_set_rw_addr(),
wait_for_completion_timeout() is used to wait for device identification
and address configuration requests to complete.
The memstick subsystem does not provide an abort or cancellation
callback in struct memstick_host for in-flight requests. If
wait_for_completion_timeout() expires (for instance, when a USB transfer
or command retry is delayed), memstick_alloc_card() returns an error and
frees the memstick_dev structure via kfree(card).
However, the host co
memstick: rtsx_usb_ms: complete requests after eject instead of dropping them
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
memstick: rtsx_usb_ms: complete requests after eject instead of dropping them
memstick_check() can pass its host->removing check just before
rtsx_usb_ms_drv_remove() sets eject/removing. Its next request is then
silently dropped: rtsx_usb_ms_request() skips schedule_work() once eject
is set, and drv_remove's cancel_work_sync() can also cancel a queued
handle_req before it picks the request up. Nobody completes
card->mrq_complete.
Once memstick core waits for requests without a timeout ("memstick: core:
wait for request completion before freeing card"), this hangs removal:
dm-crypt: reject the lmk IV mode with AEAD ciphers
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm-crypt: reject the lmk IV mode with AEAD ciphers
A "capi:" table line that pairs an AEAD cipher with the lmk IV mode,
for example "capi:gcm(aes)-lmk" with the integrity:28:aead option,
causes an oops when it is loaded. lmk sets tfms_count to 64, but
crypt_alloc_tfms_aead only allocates one transform, so crypt_setkey
reads past the end of the tfms_aead array and calls crypto_aead_setkey
on the values it finds there.
lmk exists for compatibility with Loop-AES, which uses CBC, so refuse
it with an AEAD cipher rather than allocate 64 AEAD transforms. The
check cannot go in c
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm: fix reading free memory in do_resume
When do_resume calls dm_table_get_mode(new_map), the call is done without
holding any locks (it only holds a reference to the md). It may be
possible that another concurrent ioctl on the same device will swap table
after dm_swap_table and before dm_table_get_mode. In this case,
dm_table_get_mode(new_map) reads freed memory.
This race condition was triggered by syzbot.
This commit fixes the race by reading mode of the new table before
dm_swap_table. Note that new_map is also passed to dm_ima_need_measure,
but this function doesn't a
mmc: mtk-sd: Cancel request timeout work on remove
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: mtk-sd: Cancel request timeout work on remove
The driver queues req_timeout while a request is active.
msdc_request_done() uses cancel_delayed_work(), which does not wait for
a timeout callback that has already started.
The timeout callback calls mmc_request_done(), which wakes the request
waiter, and then continues to use host->dev_comp and check the SDIO IRQ.
During unbind, msdc_drv_remove() can return and the managed mmc_host can
be freed before the callback finishes.
KASAN reported use-after-free accesses in msdc_request_done() and
msdc_recheck_sdio_irq() in each
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: sdhci-sprd: disable runtime PM on remove
sdhci_sprd_probe() enables runtime PM, while sdhci_sprd_remove() does
not perform the corresponding runtime PM cleanup.
The probe failure path disables runtime PM before disabling the clocks,
but the normal remove path directly disables clocks that are also
managed by the runtime PM callbacks. If the device is runtime
suspended, those clocks may already be disabled.
Resume the device before removal, disable runtime PM and drop the
temporary runtime PM reference before disabling the clocks.

net/packet: guard the ll header push in packet_rcv_spkt()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/packet: guard the ll header push in packet_rcv_spkt()
packet_rcv_spkt() restores the link layer header with
skb_push(skb, skb->data - skb_mac_header(skb));
That subtraction is only meaningful when the device actually has a link
layer header. packet_rcv() and tpacket_rcv() both wrap it in
dev_has_header(), which is also the predicate the block comment at the
top of the file states the restore in terms of; packet_rcv_spkt() does
not. commit d549699048b4 ("net/packet: fix packet receive on L3
devices without visible hard header") introduced the helper and changed

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: protect clcsock lifetime in smc_getname
smc_getname() dereferences smc->clcsock without holding
clcsock_release_lock. Link-group termination can release the CLC socket
through smc_close_active_abort() while the SMC socket is still open,
for example after shutdown(SHUT_WR).
A getsockname() caller can load smc->clcsock, then the termination worker
can clear the pointer and call sock_release() before the caller accesses
clcsock->ops or invokes getname(). This causes a use-after-free; if the
worker clears the pointer before the load, it causes a NULL dereference.

net: bridge: avoid recursive multicast port cleanup
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bridge: avoid recursive multicast port cleanup
br_multicast_sg_del_exclude_ports() removes automatically added STAR_EXCL
port groups by calling br_multicast_del_pg(). For S,G entries, that
deletion calls back into br_multicast_sg_del_exclude_ports(), so a large
number of STAR_EXCL ports consumes one kernel stack frame per port and can
hit the stack guard page.
Keep the complete port-group deletion path for cleanup, but suppress the
S,G exclude-port cleanup while that helper is already walking the same
entry. Normal deletion callers retain the existing behavior.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: team: stop reusing skb after queue override
A nonzero dev_queue_xmit() result does not return ownership of the skb.
When an override port's qdisc drops it, the queue override helper used to
try another port or the mode transmit op with the freed skb.
Return the handoff decision separately from transmit success. Select only
the first override port under RCU and stop after handing it the skb,
regardless of the lower transmit result. Keep the existing success and
drop accounting.

net: team: free skb when broadcast has no txable port
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: team: free skb when broadcast has no txable port
bc_transmit() sends the original skb through the last txable port.
When no port is txable, it returns false without consuming the skb, but
team_xmit() still returns NETDEV_TX_OK. AF_PACKET sends then retain the
skb and its socket write-memory charge.
A TX-enabled, link-down port keeps the broadcast transmit op installed.
Carrier can stay up through a second link-up, TX-disabled port or be
forced on by userspace. Free the original skb on the no-port path while
leaving the existing drop accounting intact.

openvswitch: fix soft lockup in the netlink flow dump
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
openvswitch: fix soft lockup in the netlink flow dump
A production compute node carrying a few thousand datapath flows hit a
soft lockup inside a single netlink flow dump and panicked.
ovs_flow_cmd_dump() calls ovs_flow_stats_get() for every flow it
emits, and that releases stats->lock with spin_unlock_bh() once per
CPU that has touched the flow. Every release is a local_bh_enable(),
and each one runs the pending softirq backlog in the dumping thread's
own context.
The skb bounds the flows one callback emits, but not the softirq work
it absorbs. On a CPU that carries the
optee: register TEE devices only once fully initialized
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
optee: register TEE devices only once fully initialized
optee_probe() called tee_device_register() on both the client and the
supplicant device before the rest of struct optee had been initialized.
tee_device_register() calls cdev_device_add(), which does two things at
once: it creates /dev/tee0 and /dev/teepriv0, and it links the device
into the tee class so that class_find_device() can find it. From that
moment on the device is reachable both from user space via tee_open()
and from kernel space via tee_client_open_context(). The only gate in
teedev_open() is tee_device_g
