mm/khugepaged: write all dirty file folios when collapsing
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/khugepaged: write all dirty file folios when collapsing
[There is no upstream commit, as this code was removed by upstream
commit 044925f9b565 ("mm: fs: remove filemap_nr_thps*() functions and their users")]
As-is, khugepaged and writable-file opening exclude each other. A file
cannot be open writeable and have THPs (because the filesystem is not aware
of them). khugepaged will never collapse file pages for files that are
opened writeable. On an open(O_RDWR/O_WRONLY), the page cache for that
particular file is dropped. This is fine because nothing could've been
dirtied
Bluetooth: hci_uart: clear HCI_UART_SENDING when write_work is canceled
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_uart: clear HCI_UART_SENDING when write_work is canceled
HCI_UART_SENDING bit in tx_state means write_work is pending and blocks
queueing it again. Currently this bit is not cleared when canceling the
work in hci_uart_close(), which blocks future writes when device is
reopened later if write_work was pending.
Fix by clearing HCI_UART_SENDING when canceling the work.
Also make clearing of tx_skb safe by using disable_work_sync +
enable_work instead of just cancel_work_sync. hci_uart_flush() purges
the proto tx queue so we can cancel the pending write_work
staging: vme_user: fix location monitor leak in tsi148 bridge
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: vme_user: fix location monitor leak in tsi148 bridge
tsi148_probe() allocates a location monitor resource and links it into
tsi148_bridge->lm_resources. The probe error path frees this list, but
tsi148_remove() only frees the dma, slave and master resource lists, so
the location monitor resource is leaked on device unbind or module
unload.
Free the lm_resources list in tsi148_remove() as well, before
tsi148_bridge is freed.
ksmbd: fix path resolution in ksmbd_vfs_kern_path_create
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix path resolution in ksmbd_vfs_kern_path_create
The SMB2 open lookup is rooted at the share with LOOKUP_BENEATH, but the
create/mkdir/hardlink sink is not: ksmbd_vfs_kern_path_create() builds an
absolute path with convert_to_unix_name() and resolves it from AT_FDCWD
via start_creating_path(), so a ".." component is walked from the real
filesystem root and escapes the export.
An authenticated client races a missing path component so the rooted open
lookup returns -ENOENT (taking the create branch) while the same component
is present (a directory) when the create wa
libceph: fix two unsafe bare decodes in decode_lockers()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libceph: fix two unsafe bare decodes in decode_lockers()
decode_lockers() in cls_lock_client.c contains two bare decode operations
that allow a malicious or compromised OSD to trigger slab-out-of-bounds
reads:
1. ceph_decode_32(p) at the num_lockers field has no preceding bounds
check. ceph_start_decoding() accepts struct_len=0 as valid -- the
internal ceph_decode_need(p, end, 0, bad) always passes -- so when an
OSD sends struct_len=0, ceph_start_decoding() returns success with
p == end. The immediately following bare ceph_decode_32(p) then reads

KVM: nVMX: Put vmcs12 pages if nested VM-Enter fails due to invalid guest state
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: nVMX: Put vmcs12 pages if nested VM-Enter fails due to invalid guest state
Put all vmcs12 pages if KVM synthesizes a nested VM-Exit due to invalid
guest while emulating VMLAUNCH or VMRESUME. The invalid guest state path
doesn't use nested_vmx_vmexit() as that API is intended to be used if and
only if L2 is active, and the open coded equivalent neglects to put the
vmcs12 pages. Failure to put the vmcs12 pages leaks any pinned pages
(and/or mappings) if L1 retries VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME.
Note, the !from_vmenter scenario doesn't suffer the same problem, as

x86/bugs: Make Safe-RET robust against interrupt injection
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/bugs: Make Safe-RET robust against interrupt injection
An attacker injecting interrupts while the Safe-RET mitigation executes
on machines affected by SRSO can neutralize the safe return sequence,
potentially leading to data leakage through speculative execution.
Fixup register state as if the Safe-RET sequence executed successfully
by "emulating" it, in a manner of speaking, and avoid executing a RET
instruction after returning from the interrupt.
KVM: VMX: Grab vmcs12 on CR8 interception update iff vCPU is in guest mode
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: VMX: Grab vmcs12 on CR8 interception update iff vCPU is in guest mode
When updating CR8 intercepts, get vmcs12 if and only if the vCPU is in
guest mode so that a future change can have update CR8 intercepts during
vCPU creation, without running afoul of get_vmcs12()'s lockdep assertion.

iio: adc: spear: Initialize completion before requesting IRQ
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: adc: spear: Initialize completion before requesting IRQ
In the report from Jaeyoung Chung:
"spear_adc_probe() in drivers/iio/adc/spear_adc.c registers its
interrupt handler with devm_request_irq() before it initializes
st->completion with init_completion(). If an interrupt arrives after
devm_request_irq() and before init_completion(), the handler calls

crypto: amlogic - avoid double cleanup in meson_crypto_probe()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: amlogic - avoid double cleanup in meson_crypto_probe()
When meson_allocate_chanlist() fails after a partial allocation, it already
unwinds the allocated chanlist state through its local error path.
meson_crypto_probe() then jump to error_flow and calls
meson_free_chanlist() again, causing the same per-flow resources to be torn
down twice. In the reproduced failure path, the second teardown
re-entered crypto_engine_exit() on an already destroyed worker and KASAN
reported a slab-use-after-free in kthread_destroy_worker().

usb: gadget: f_fs: initialize reset_work at allocation time
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ffs_fs_kill_sb() unconditionally calls cancel_work_sync() on
ffs->reset_work when a functionfs instance is unmounted:
ffs_data_reset(ffs);

However ffs->reset_work is only ever initialized via INIT_WORK() in

net: ethernet: arc: emac: quiesce interrupts before requesting IRQ
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ethernet: arc: emac: quiesce interrupts before requesting IRQ
Normal RX/TX interrupts are enabled later, in arc_emac_open(), so probe
should not see interrupt delivery in the usual case. However, hardware may
still present stale or latched interrupt status left by firmware or the
bootloader.
If probe later unwinds after devm_request_irq() has installed the handler,
such a stale interrupt can still reach arc_emac_intr() during teardown and
race with release of the associated net_device.
Avoid that window by putting the device into a known quiescent state before

wifi: brcmfmac: drain bus_reset work on device removal

drvr->bus_reset, whose callback recovers drvr through container_of()
and dereferences it. The removal path frees drvr (brcmf_free ->

can: esd_usb: kill anchored URBs before freeing netdevs
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: esd_usb: kill anchored URBs before freeing netdevs
esd_usb_disconnect() frees each CAN netdev with free_candev() inside
its per-netdev loop and only calls unlink_all_urbs(dev) afterwards.
The per-netdev private data (struct esd_usb_net_priv) is embedded in
the net_device allocation returned by alloc_candev(), so once
free_candev() has run, dev->nets[i] points to freed memory.
unlink_all_urbs() then dereferences the freed dev->nets[i] to kill the
per-netdev TX anchor (usb_kill_anchored_urbs(&priv->tx_submitted)),
clear active_tx_jobs, and reset priv->tx_contexts[].

usb: gadget: f_midi: cancel pending IN work before freeing the midi object
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_midi: cancel pending IN work before freeing the midi object
The f_midi driver embeds a work item (midi->work) whose handler,
f_midi_in_work(), dereferences the enclosing struct f_midi through
container_of(). This work is armed from two sites: f_midi_complete(),
on a normal IN-endpoint completion, and f_midi_in_trigger(), on an ALSA
rawmidi output-stream start.
Neither f_midi_disable() nor f_midi_unbind() cancels midi->work.
f_midi_disable() only disables the endpoints and drains the in_req_fifo;
it does not synchronize the work item, and the sound card is r
usb: gadget: udc: bdc: free IRQ and drain func_wake_notify before teardown
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: udc: bdc: free IRQ and drain func_wake_notify before teardown
The Broadcom BDC UDC driver registers its IRQ handler with
devm_request_irq() in bdc_udc_init(), so the IRQ is released by devm
only after bdc_remove() returns. devm releases resources in reverse
LIFO order, but bdc_remove() runs bdc_udc_exit() and bdc_hw_exit() ->
bdc_mem_free() manually before returning: bdc_udc_exit() tears down
individual endpoint objects via bdc_free_ep(), while bdc_hw_exit() ->
bdc_mem_free() frees and NULLs the DMA-coherent status-report ring
(bdc->srr.sr_bds) and kfree()s bd
RDMA/rxe: Fix a use-after-free problem in rxe_mmap
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/rxe: Fix a use-after-free problem in rxe_mmap
rxe_mmap() removes a rxe_mmap_info struct from the pending_mmaps list
and releases pending_lock while the struct's kref is still at 1:
list_del_init(&ip->pending_mmaps);
spin_unlock_bh(&rxe->pending_lock); /* ref == 1, no lock held */
ret = remap_vmalloc_range(vma, ip->obj, 0); /* walks PTEs */
[...]
rxe_vma_open(vma); /* kref_get, ref → 2 */
remap_vmalloc_range_partial() walks PTEs without any lock.
A concurrent DESTROY_CQ ioctl on another CPU calls:

xfrm: fix sk_dst_cache double-free in xfrm_user_policy()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: fix sk_dst_cache double-free in xfrm_user_policy()
xfrm_user_policy() clears the socket dst cache with __sk_dst_reset(),
i.e. the non-atomic __sk_dst_set(sk, NULL): it reads sk_dst_cache with
rcu_dereference_protected(), stores NULL and dst_release()s the old dst.
That is only safe if no other thread modifies sk_dst_cache concurrently.
For a connected UDP socket that does not hold: the transmit fast path
(udp_sendmsg -> sk_dst_check -> sk_dst_reset) resets the cache locklessly
with an atomic xchg(). A per-socket policy change racing a send can make
both sides observe
