powerpc/eeh: Fix recursive locking on devices without EEH sensitive driver
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/eeh: Fix recursive locking on devices without EEH sensitive driver
The commit 1010b4c012b0 ("powerpc/eeh: Make EEH driver device hotplug
safe") refactored the EEH code such that the pci_rescan_remove_lock is
held at the beginning of eeh_handle_normal_event() and the
eeh_reset_device() is called with that lock being held. Looks like the
commit missed to remove the existing lock/unlock inside eeh_rmv_device()
which is no longer necessary. This is causing the eehd to hang on the
lock which it actually holds when that code path is taken.

x86/mm: Fix user-space data loss with MADV_FREE and THP
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/mm: Fix user-space data loss with MADV_FREE and THP
Some of users of Polars (a data analytics library) have lost production
data from this bug. They seem to have just the right combination of
huge pages, MADV_FREE and heavy reclaim pressure.
pmd_modify() masks the old value with (_HPAGE_CHG_MASK & ~_PAGE_DIRTY),
silently discarding the hardware dirty bit. The subsequent
pmd_mksaveddirty() call is supposed to transfer _PAGE_DIRTY into
_PAGE_SAVED_DIRTY when write-protecting, but the dirty bit was already
stripped from the value, so there is nothing left to transfer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: fix fib6 walker UAF on seq stop
ipv6_route_iter_active() treats a walker in FWS_U at the table root as
already unlinked. fib6_del_route() can move a still-linked walker into
that same state when the current leaf is the last route at the root,
so ipv6_route_native_seq_stop() skips fib6_walker_unlink(). The seq
private object can then be freed while it remains on
net->ipv6.fib6_walkers. A later route deletion walks the dangling list
and uses the freed walker.
Use the list head as membership state and reinitialize it when
unlinking. Keep the existing w->node check so a
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipmr: account multicast table and route memory
A netadmin in a user+net namespace can create many IPv4 and IPv6
multicast routing tables with MRT_TABLE and MRT6_TABLE. Each unseen
id allocates an mr_table via the shared mr_table_alloc(), links it
into the per-net list, and leaves it until netns teardown. Those
objects were not charged to memcg, so the host unreclaimable slab
grows with the table count.
Account mr_table allocations with GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT and mark the
IPv4/IPv6 MFC caches SLAB_ACCOUNT. This matches the established
handling of IP addresses, routes and altern
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
reboot: fix cad_pid use-after-free race
cad_pid is a single kernel-wide struct pid pointer. proc_do_cad_pid()
reads it and passes it to pid_vnr() without protecting the lifetime of
the referenced struct pid. A concurrent writer can replace cad_pid and
drop the final reference to the old struct pid after the reader has
loaded the pointer but before pid_vnr() has finished dereferencing it,
causing a use-after-free.
kill_cad_pid() has the same lifetime race when it passes cad_pid to
kill_pid().
At the time this issue was reported, an unprivileged user could reach the
sysctl
tracing: Fix memory corruption from the histogram stacktrace modifier
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Fix memory corruption from the histogram stacktrace modifier
parse_field() sets HIST_FIELD_FL_STACKTRACE from the ".stacktrace"
modifier before it looks the field name up, and nothing afterwards
checks that the name resolved to a field which holds a stacktrace.
create_hist_field() picks HIST_FIELD_FN_STACK on the strength of the
field pointer alone, which reads a __data_loc word from the record and
follows its low 16 bits as an offset into the same record.
event_hist_trigger() takes the first word there as an entry count and
copies that many longs into a 31 entry a
tracing: Set the trace clock before registering the histogram trigger
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Set the trace clock before registering the histogram trigger
hist_register_trigger() puts the trigger on the global named_triggers
list in cmd_ops->init(), and only then sets the trace clock:
if (data->cmd_ops->init) {
ret = data->cmd_ops->init(data);
if (ret < 0)
goto out;
}
if (hist_data->enable_timestamps) {
ret = tracing_set_clock(file->tr, hist_data->attrs->clock);
if (ret) {
hist_err(tr, HIST_ERR_SET_CLOCK_FAIL, errpos(clock));
goto out;
}
The clock string is not checked anywhere before that call, so a named
trigger using common_times
tracing: Fix memory corruption from a "STACKTRACE" histogram key
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Fix memory corruption from a "STACKTRACE" histogram key
"cpu", "CPU", "stacktrace" and "STACKTRACE" are generic fields, defined
with an offset and a size of zero so that the filter code can match them
by name. parse_field() maps them onto their common_* equivalents for
backward compatibility, but unlike the common_* names it hands the
placeholder back to the caller instead of NULL.
create_hist_field() takes a non-NULL field as a promise that the record
carries a stacktrace and picks HIST_FIELD_FN_STACK, so the __data_loc
word is read from offset 0, that is from co
tracing: Take trace_array reference when opening a tracer options file
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Take trace_array reference when opening a tracer options file
When a tracer option file is opened, it is passed a descriptor that points
to an element on the trace_array's topts array. This element has
information to find the trace array and other information. It uses this
element to take a reference of the trace_array so that the trace_array
does not get removed while this file is opened.
Unfortunately, there's a race condition where the element itself could be
freed by the removal of the instance the trace_array represents causing a
use-after-free as this elemen
ALSA: us122l: Prevent write upgrades for read mappings
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: us122l: Prevent write upgrades for read mappings
The hwdep mmap callback rejects read-buffer mappings that are initially
writable, but leaves VM_MAYWRITE set on mappings created with PROT_READ.
A process that can open the hwdep node O_RDWR can later use mprotect() to
make the mapping writable.
The read allocation begins with struct usb_stream. Its read_size member is
used by the fault handler to decide which pages belong to the read buffer.
The read VMA intentionally remains expandable because pcm_usb_stream uses
mremap() after reading that size. Changing read_size f
ALSA: usbusx2y: fix in04_last array size mismatch with in04_buf
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usbusx2y: fix in04_last array size mismatch with in04_buf
The in04_last array in struct usx2ydev is declared as char[24], but
in04_buf is allocated as sizeof(struct us428_ctls) which is 21 bytes.
In i_usx2y_in04_int(), when ctl_snapshot_last == -2 (initialization
path):
memcpy(usx2y->in04_last, usx2y->in04_buf, sizeof(usx2y->in04_last));
This copies 24 bytes from a 21-byte slab allocation, reading 3 bytes
past the end of the source object.
Introduce a USX2Y_IN04_SIZE constant defined as sizeof(struct
us428_ctls) and use it consistently for the in04_last array,
ALSA: usbusx2y: validate URB actual_length in interrupt callback
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usbusx2y: validate URB actual_length in interrupt callback
i_usx2y_in04_int() processes the interrupt URB data without checking
urb->actual_length. A short transfer from a malfunctioning device
would cause the handler to process uninitialized heap data from the
kmalloc-allocated in04_buf, which is then copied to the mmap-accessible
ctl_snapshot[] array.
Fix by using kzalloc() for in04_buf to zero-initialize the buffer,
and adding an actual_length check to skip processing on short
transfers while still resubmitting the URB.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: skip the VMID 0 flush for VRAM
Clear-on-release only runs on VRAM, which amdgpu_ttm_map_buffer() reaches
via its direct MC address without programming a GART window, yet the wipe
still forces a VMID 0 flush. On GFX11 (e.g. Navi33) that spurious SDMA
flush can wedge the engine; only flush when a GART window is actually used.
v2: Let amdgpu_ttm_map_buffer() return whether the VMID 0 flush is needed,
and drive the clear and copy paths from that. (Christian)
v3: Make the vm_needs_flush output parameter mandatory instead of
allowing NULL. (Christian)

ufs: create the root dentry after loading cylinder metadata
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ufs: create the root dentry after loading cylinder metadata
ufs_fill_super() installed sb->s_root before it loaded the cylinder
group structures for a writable mount:
sb->s_root = d_make_root(inode);
...
if (!sb_rdonly(sb))
if (!ufs_read_cylinder_structures(sb))
goto failed;
When ufs_read_cylinder_structures() failed, the error path freed the
in-core superblock information and set sb->s_fs_info to NULL while
sb->s_root stayed installed. get_tree_bdev() then reached
deactivate_locked_super(), and because s_root was present,
generic_shutdown_super() called sync_file
ufs: validate cylinder group metadata before caching it
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ufs: validate cylinder group metadata before caching it
ufs_read_cylinder() copies the cylinder group index and the rotor
positions straight from the on-disk group and caches them without any
check:
ucpi->c_cgx = fs32_to_cpu(sb, ucg->cg_cgx);
ucpi->c_rotor = fs32_to_cpu(sb, ucg->cg_rotor);
ucpi->c_frotor = fs32_to_cpu(sb, ucg->cg_frotor);
ucpi->c_irotor = fs32_to_cpu(sb, ucg->cg_irotor);
They are then used as indices during allocation and free:
- c_cgx indexes the cylinder summary array as
UFS_SB(sb)->fs_cs(ucpi->c_cgx), so a value past s_ncg writes a 32

tracing/user_events: Don't destroy fields when event removal fails
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing/user_events: Don't destroy fields when event removal fails
destroy_user_event() destroys the event's fields before attempting to
remove the trace event call. If user_event_set_call_visible() fails,
e.g. because the event is still enabled and trace_remove_event_call()
returns -EBUSY, the event is left registered with an irreversibly
destroyed field list. Any subsequent interaction with the event then
operates on an empty field list while it is still fully visible in
tracefs.
Move the field destruction after the call removal, and splice the
field list back onto the e
tracing: Free histogram the var ref when its initialization fails
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Free histogram the var ref when its initialization fails
create_var_ref() allocates a VAR_REF hist_field and then calls
init_var_ref() to fill it in. When that fails the field is leaked.
commit 656fe2ba85e8 ("tracing: Use hist trigger's var_ref array to destroy
var_refs") made destroy_hist_field() return early for
HIST_FIELD_FL_VAR_REF, since var refs are freed by walking the trigger's
var_refs[] array instead. create_var_ref() adds the field to that array
only after init_var_ref() has succeeded, so on this path the field is in
neither place and nothing frees it.
tracing: Free histogram var refs regardless of how often they are referenced
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Free histogram var refs regardless of how often they are referenced
Using the same variable three or more times in one hist trigger leaks the
variable reference and its strings when the trigger is removed.
commit 656fe2ba85e8 ("tracing: Use hist trigger's var_ref array to destroy
var_refs") made a trigger's var_refs[] array the only owner of a var ref:
destroy_hist_field() returns early for HIST_FIELD_FL_VAR_REF, so the field
expressions never destroy one. One entry, freed once, no count needed.

tracing: Free histogram the field rejected for a bad modifier
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Free histogram the field rejected for a bad modifier
Writing a hist trigger whose value or variable carries a modifier that is
not allowed there leaks the fields that were built for it.
__create_val_field() takes the field from parse_expr() and stores it in
hist_data->fields[] only after the modifier checks have run:
hist_field = parse_expr(hist_data, file, field_str, flags, var_name,
