net: macb: destroy the phylink instance on the probe error path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: macb: destroy the phylink instance on the probe error path
macb_mii_init() creates a phylink instance on both of its success paths,
but the probe unwind frees the netdev without destroying it, so a failing
macb_alloc_tieoff() or register_netdev() leaks the instance.
Destroy it at err_out_unregister_mdio, which is only reachable once
macb_mii_init() has succeeded, so bp->phylink is valid there.

watchdog: msc313e: Avoid division by zero
clk_get_rate() could return 0. Avoid a division by zero panic.
watchdog: msc313e: Fix clock leak and spurious timer in settimeout()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
watchdog: msc313e: Fix clock leak and spurious timer in settimeout()
msc313e_wdt_settimeout() unconditionally calls msc313e_wdt_start() which
introduces two severe bugs:
1. If the watchdog is already active, calling start() again will
increase the reference count of the clock again. However stop() is
only called once, the reference count is unbalance.
2. If the watchdog is stopped, calling settimeout() will start
the hardware timer accidentally.
Factor out the register-writing logic into a helper function. Only call
it in settimeout() if the watchdog is running
octeontx2-pf: reset HTB scheduler topology before freeing queues
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
octeontx2-pf: reset HTB scheduler topology before freeing queues
HTB offload programs NIX_AF_TLxX_TOPOLOGY on QoS-allocated scheduler
queues via otx2_qos_txschq_set_parent_topology(), but teardown freed
those queues without clearing TOPOLOGY. The AF only restores PARENT and
SCHEDULE on free, so PRIO_ANCHOR/RR_PRIO settings can survive in the
shared scheduler pool and affect later allocations.
Add otx2_qos_reset_schq_topology() and otx2_qos_free_hw_schq() to zero
TL4 through TL2 TOPOLOGY before each schq is returned to the AF during
hierarchy teardown and cfg rollback. Sk
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vxlan: initialize _md in vxlan_xmit_one()
If a VXLAN device is configured with both VXLAN_F_COLLECT_METADATA and
VXLAN_F_GBP, and a packet is transmitted through it using an external
ip_tunnel_info that lacks the IP_TUNNEL_VXLAN_OPT_BIT flag, md is left
pointing to the uninitialized _md stack variable:
if (test_bit(IP_TUNNEL_VXLAN_OPT_BIT, info->key.tun_flags)) {
if (info->options_len < sizeof(*md))
goto drop;
md = ip_tunnel_info_opts(info);
}
Because IP_TUNNEL_
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ppp_synctty: ensure a writeable skb header
ppp_sync_txmunge() checks headroom before prepending the address and
control bytes, but does not ensure that the skb header is writable.
A received skb can reach this function through PPP channel bridging
without passing through ppp_start_xmit(), which calls skb_cow_head().
For example, a PPPoE frame may share its buffer with a clone queued to
an AF_PACKET socket. If it is bridged to a synchronous tty channel, the
address/control bytes can overwrite data still visible to that socket.
Use skb_cow_head() to ensure both sufficient h
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: stmmac: initialize ptp_lock at probe time
priv->ptp_lock is only initialized in stmmac_ptp_register(), which runs
during __stmmac_open(). However, the lock is also used while the
interface is down and has never been opened: tc_taprio_configure()
invokes the PTP gettime64() callback to compute the EST base time when
offloading a TAPRIO schedule, and stmmac_get_time() takes
priv->ptp_lock. Using an uninitialized rwlock is undefined behaviour.
Move the rwlock_init() to __stmmac_dvr_probe(), together with the other
private locks, so that ptp_lock is always valid regardless
net/mlx5e: Move representor vnic reporter to eswitch devlink port
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: Move representor vnic reporter to eswitch devlink port
The representor vnic devlink health reporter is created and destroyed
along the representor netdev (un)load path, which is not serialized by
the devlink instance lock. Destroying the reporter from there triggers
a devl_assert_locked() splat on driver unbind:

perf/core: Allow list_del during perf_event_overflow()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf/core: Allow list_del during perf_event_overflow()
A PMU might use perf_sched_cb_inc() and perf_sched_cb_dec()
interface to get the PMU call back function pmu::sched_task
invoked at schedule in and schedule out. This is achieved
by walking along the list anchored by sched_cb_list.
The following scenario might lead to a list corruption.
perf_pmu_sched_task()
for_each_list_entry(..., &sched_cb_list)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf/x86/intel: Prevent drain_pebs() reentry
The PEBS buffer is shared by all events on a CPU, so drain_pebs() must
not be reentered. If so, one instance may observe stale buffer state and
potentially access out-of-bound memory.
Most invocations happen in NMI context, which naturally prevents reentry.
However, drain_pebs() is also reachable from process context via
intel_pmu_drain_pebs_buffer().
In those paths, the PMU is often already disabled, but not guaranteed.
For example, __intel_pmu_pebs_disable() only disables the target counter,
so other active counters can still
net/sched: cls_route: free emptied bucket on filter move
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: cls_route: free emptied bucket on filter move
route4_change can move an existing filter to a different top-level
bucket: route4_set_parms recomputes the handle from TCA_ROUTE4_TO/
FROM/IIF, and the handle-mismatch check is gated on the 'new' flag, so
for an existing filter the new handle may differ from the old one and
land in a different bucket. When this happens, the filter is unlinked
from the old bucket, but the bucket itself is never freed once it goes
empty. The stale empty bucket remains in head->table[], causing
route4_delete to report *last=false even af
net/sched: cls_api: Don't replay RTM_GETCHAIN in tc_ctl_chain().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: cls_api: Don't replay RTM_GETCHAIN in tc_ctl_chain().
If a netlink socket sends RTM_GETCHAIN requests repeatedly
without recv()ing the responses, tc_ctl_chain() hogs CPU and
triggers Hung Task splat. [0]
As caught in the stack trace, netlink_attachskb() could confuse
tc_ctl_chain() by returning -EAGAIN when the userspace netlink
socket's receive buffer is full.
The replay: label exists since commit 32a4f5ecd738 ("net: sched:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: hinic: fix mailbox segment buffer overflow
check_mbox_seq_id_and_seg_len() validates that seq_id does not
exceed SEQ_ID_MAX_VAL (42) and seg_len does not exceed
MBOX_SEG_LEN (48). However, this allows the last segment
(seq_id=42) to carry a full 48-byte payload, writing to offset
42*48=2016 for 48 bytes (ending at byte 2064). The receive
buffer is only MBOX_MAX_BUF_SZ (2048) bytes, resulting in a
16-byte heap buffer overflow.
The hinic3 driver already handles this correctly by defining
MBOX_LAST_SEG_MAX_LEN and rejecting the last segment when it
exceeds the remainin
net: mana: restore the XDP program pointer when pre-allocation fails
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mana: restore the XDP program pointer when pre-allocation fails
mana_xdp_set() publishes the new program into apc->bpf_prog before it
allocates anything, because mana_pre_alloc_rxbufs() sizes the buffers
from it via mana_get_rxbuf_cfg(). When that allocation fails the
function returns the error directly, skipping the err_dealloc_rxbuffs
label which is the only place that restores the previous pointer.
The attach is reported as failed, so the BPF core drops the reference it
held for the caller and the program can be freed, while apc->bpf_prog
still points at it. The ne
net/rds: fix tcp stream corruption with large pages
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/rds: fix tcp stream corruption with large pages
rds_message_map_pages() assigns PAGE_SIZE bytes to every
scatterlist entry, even when total_len ends in a partial page. The RDS
congestion map is defined as 8192 bytes, so on systems with PAGE_SIZE
greater than 8192 the scatterlist maps bytes beyond the end of the
congestion map. RDS-TCP transmits the SG contents according to those
lengths, so the extra bytes become part of the TCP RDS stream and are
interpreted as subsequent RDS message headers, corrupting the stream.
Limit the final scatterlist mapping to the number of
net: stmmac: fix TX descriptor availability check for TSO traffic
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: stmmac: fix TX descriptor availability check for TSO traffic
stmmac_tso_xmit() estimates the number of free TX descriptors required by
a TSO skb as:
(skb->len - proto_hdr_len) / TSO_MAX_BUFF_SIZE + 1
which assumes the payload is split into TSO_MAX_BUFF_SIZE chunks. This
underestimates the descriptors actually consumed by stmmac_tso_allocator(),
since each fragment is mapped individually and so it needs at least one
descriptor regardless of its size. Moreover, one descriptor is used for
the L2/L3/L4 headers and, when the MSS changes, one more is consumed for
the MSS
scsi: target: iscsi: Fix hang for aborted WRITE_PENDING commands
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: iscsi: Fix hang for aborted WRITE_PENDING commands
When a LUN_RESET aborts a WRITE command that is in the
TRANSPORT_WRITE_PENDING state, the target core sets CMD_T_ABORTED and
waits for the frontend to finish processing.
If the initiator subsequently sends the remaining dataout PDUs,
__iscsit_check_dataout_hdr() catches the payload, stops the dataout
timer if the sequence is final and finally dumps the data. However, the
iSCSI target doesn't trigger the completion process for these aborted
commands. Because of this, the abort path hangs indefinitely in
targe
configfs: pin the symlink target's dirent instead of chasing ->ci_dentry
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
configfs: pin the symlink target's dirent instead of chasing ->ci_dentry
create_link() reads the target's configfs_dirent from
item->ci_dentry->d_fsdata, relying on the item reference taken by
get_target(). That reference pins the item, not its dentry: the dentry is
pinned by DCACHE_PERSISTENT, which configfs_remove_dir() releases via
simple_rmdir() while the item is still alive. A symlink racing with rmdir
of its target can therefore find ->ci_dentry freed and its dirent
released, triggering WARN_ON(!atomic_read(&sd->s_count)) in configfs_get().
Take the dirent in get_t
configfs: unhash the dentry before dropping the item in rmdir
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
configfs: unhash the dentry before dropping the item in rmdir
configfs_get_config_item() treats a hashed dentry as proof that
sd->s_element is a live config_item. configfs_rmdir() breaks that:
simple_rmdir() leaves the dentry hashed, the last reference to the item is
dropped right after, and the dentry is only unhashed by d_delete() once
->rmdir() has returned. configfs_symlink() resolves its target holding no
lock on it, so get_target() can land in that window:

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.
