firewire: ohci: fix NULL pointer dereference in ar_context_release
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firewire: ohci: fix NULL pointer dereference in ar_context_release
During the error handling path of the driver's probe function, a NULL
pointer dereference can occur in ar_context_release().
When pci_probe() fails early (e.g., if pcim_enable_device() or MMIO mapping
fails), the devres cleanup mechanism invokes release_ohci(). This function
unconditionally calls ar_context_release() to clean up the asynchronous
receive contexts. However, if ar_context_init() was not yet called,
ctx->ohci remains NULL (as the fw_ohci structure is zero-initialized by
devres_alloc()).

gpio: pca953x: fix pca953x_irq_bus_sync_unlock regmap lock
Locking is disabled in the regmap config as this driver uses its own
lock. This means that all calls to regmap functions (read or write) must
hold the i2c_lock. The function pca953x_irq_bus_sync_unlock() did not do
this, and it was therefore possible that multiple threads could cause an
incorrect register to be read/written.
A previous patch partly fixed this, but only protected the write to the
interrupt mask register, and not the read from the direction register.
NFS: Pin the 'struct nfs_server' during a FREE_STATEID call
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFS: Pin the 'struct nfs_server' during a FREE_STATEID call
Dan Aloni reports that he was able to hit a use-after-free bug if a
FREE_STATEID operation gets delayed for whatever reason. Fix this by
bumping the refcount of the 'struct nfs_server' object for the duration
of the FREE_STATEID so it doesn't get cleaned up from underneath us
while operations are still in flight.
soc: aspeed: lpc-snoop: Fix usercopy overflow in snoop_file_read
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
soc: aspeed: lpc-snoop: Fix usercopy overflow in snoop_file_read
put_fifo_with_discard() acts as both producer and consumer on the kfifo:
it calls kfifo_skip() (advances out) and kfifo_put() (advances in) from
the IRQ handler without synchronizing with snoop_file_read(), which also
consumes via kfifo_to_user(). On SMP systems this concurrent access can
leave (in - out) larger than the ring buffer, so __kfifo_to_user()'s clamp
to (in - out) is ineffective and kfifo_copy_to_user() can attempt a
copy_to_user() past the kmalloc-2k backing store:

bonding: alb: re-check primary_is_promisc under RTNL in bond_alb_monitor
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bonding: alb: re-check primary_is_promisc under RTNL in bond_alb_monitor
bond_alb_monitor() reads primary_is_promisc under RCU, then drops RCU and
takes RTNL via rtnl_trylock() before undoing the promiscuity it set on the
active slave. In that window the active slave can change under RTNL
(RTM_DELLINK -> __bond_release_one() -> bond_alb_handle_active_change()),
which already drops the promiscuity and clears primary_is_promisc. The
monitor still acts on the stale decision: if the slave was removed with no
failover, curr_active_slave is now NULL and the deref faults; if it fa
enic: fix tx_hang_reset use-after-free on device removal
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
enic: fix tx_hang_reset use-after-free on device removal
enic_remove() cancels the reset and change_mtu_work items but does not
cancel tx_hang_reset. A TX timeout that fires while the device is being
removed can schedule enic_tx_hang_reset() so that it runs after
free_netdev(), resulting in a use-after-free.
cancel_work_sync() alone is not sufficient here: the still-live watchdog
and notify paths can re-schedule these work items in the window between
the cancel and unregister_netdev(). Use disable_work_sync(), which
cancels the work and blocks any subsequent schedule_work(
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipvs: avoid out-of-bounds write in ip_vs_nat_icmp
Sashiko warns that local attacker can modify the packet
while it is processed by IPVS. Some places read the
IP ihl field multiple times which can cause out-of-bounds
access. One such place is ip_vs_nat_icmp where we
can write after the validated area.
Fix it by providing ciph argument just like it is done for
IPv6 and use ciph->len as offset to the embedded transport
header.
Modify some IPv4 header checks by reading the ihl field
only once.
btrfs: lzo: reject inline extents without valid headers

bpf: Preserve pointer state for commuted arithmetic
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Preserve pointer state for commuted arithmetic
When scalar += pointer is handled in adjust_ptr_min_max_vals(), the
destination register inherits the pointer state from the source pointer.
Copying only selected fields is fragile because pointer provenance is
tracked by several bpf_reg_state fields.
Use the caller's temporary offset register to preserve the scalar operand
while replacing the destination with the full pointer state. This preserves
the frame number for PTR_TO_STACK registers and keeps parent identity
fields consistent.
net/smc: fix qentry overwrite for CONFIRM_LINK and ADD_LINK_CONT in smc_llc_event_handler()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: fix qentry overwrite for CONFIRM_LINK and ADD_LINK_CONT in smc_llc_event_handler()
The SMC_LLC_CONFIRM_LINK / SMC_LLC_ADD_LINK_CONT branch in
smc_llc_event_handler() stores an incoming qentry into the local LLC flow
without first checking whether a qentry is already pending. If a malicious or
buggy peer sends a second CONFIRM_LINK or ADD_LINK_CONT request while a flow is
active and flow->qentry is already set, smc_llc_flow_qentry_set() overwrites the
pointer without freeing the previous allocation, leaking one kmalloc-96 object
per spurious message.

devlink: fix net namespace reference leak in reload
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
devlink: fix net namespace reference leak in reload
devlink_nl_reload_doit() calls devlink_netns_get(), which returns a net
with a held reference. When the requested namespace differs from the
current one and the reload action is not DRIVER_REINIT, the function
returns -EOPNOTSUPP without releasing the reference. Add the missing
put_net() on this error path.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: fw_tracer, return NULL on create error
Tracer creation can fail by returning either NULL or ERR_PTR.
The return value is stored without a check on the device, and users
treat ERR_PTR and NULL the same way.
This also causes a crash in the core dump logic, which is missing the
ERR_PTR check and ends up dereferencing it, as shown in the trace below.
Switch tracer creation to return NULL on failure only, so callers only
need a single NULL check.

bpf: Fix netns reference imbalance in conntrack kfuncs
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix netns reference imbalance in conntrack kfuncs
The opts argument of the BPF conntrack kfuncs can point to a shared
map value. __bpf_nf_ct_lookup() and __bpf_nf_ct_alloc_entry() read
opts->netns_id separately when acquiring and releasing the network
namespace reference.
The reference imbalance can occur as follows:
CPU 0 CPU 1
read opts->netns_id (-1)
skip get_net_ns_by_id()
write opts->netns_id (id)
read opts->netns_id (id)

bpf: tcp: Fix use-after-free in bpf_iter_tcp_established_batch()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: tcp: Fix use-after-free in bpf_iter_tcp_established_batch()
reqsk_queue_hash_req() publishes a TCP_NEW_SYN_RECV request_sock onto
the ehash chain, drops the bucket lock, and only afterwards sets
rsk_refcnt to 3.
Lockless readers such as __inet_lookup_established() handle this with
refcount_inc_not_zero(), but bpf_iter_tcp_established_batch() uses plain
sock_hold() while holding the bucket lock, on the assumption that the
lock guarantees sk_refcnt > 0. That assumption does not hold for
request_sock:
CPU 0 CPU 1

vhost_iotlb: bound map allocation in add_range
vhost_iotlb_add_range_ctx() only retires an old entry when the table
has a non-zero limit, has exactly reached that limit and has
VHOST_IOTLB_FLAG_RETIRE set. Non-retiring tables can keep allocating
entries after reaching their configured limit.
Existing vhost devices allocate their IOTLB with max_iotlb_entries from
vhost.c, which defaults to 2048 and is tunable by module parameter. Use
the caller-provided limit at the allocation point instead of adding a
separate default in the common IOTLB helper, and reject non-positive

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xsk: require at least 16 bytes of TX metadata
AF_XDP accepts a TX metadata length as small as eight bytes, but every
supported request needs the flags plus at least one eight-byte request
field. Such short metadata also lets the kernel read beyond the registered
area.
Require 16 bytes rather than sizeof(struct xsk_tx_metadata) to preserve
compatibility with applications that do not use launch-time metadata.
udp: fix potential use-after-free in tunnel segmentation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
udp: fix potential use-after-free in tunnel segmentation
__skb_udp_tunnel_segment() gets the UDP header before ensuring the
tunnel header is in the skb head. If the pull reallocates skb->head,
the saved UDP header pointer is no longer valid.
Get the UDP header after the pull to avoid a potential use-after-free.
net/sched: sch_cake: drop WARN_ON(1) for malformed packets in ACK filter
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: sch_cake: drop WARN_ON(1) for malformed packets in ACK filter
The sch_cake ACK filter parses packets to find the TCP header and filter
duplicated ACKs if the flow is backlogged. The parsing code contains a
WARN_ON(1) which can be triggered by a malformed IP header in certain
cases. Depending on the system configuration, this leads either to
either spamming dmesg with warnings, or a panic if panic_on_warn is set.
The code already correctly skips the offending packet in the branch that
triggers the warning, so the WARN_ON itself doesn't really serve any
purpose. S
