In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: don't queue packet path object notifications
All file:line references below are against v7.2-rc4 (ac5b0e5651b1). The
trace was captured on 7.2.0-rc6-kasan72rc6 (075b74841bd0), where the same
lines apply.
nft_obj_notify() is exported and reached from the packet path. Its only
in-tree caller is nft_quota_obj_eval() (net/netfilter/nft_quota.c:68),
which notifies with GFP_ATOMIC while evaluating a rule for a transiting
packet, holding no mutex.
Since commit 67cc570edaa0 ("netfilter: nf_tables: coalesce multiple
notifications into one skbuff") that notifi
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: sun8i-ce - Remove crypto_rng interface
Since the crypto_rng interface for hardware PRNGs is unused and is
redundant with hwrng and the actual Linux RNG, it's being phased out.
Most drivers for it were already removed. Go ahead and remove the
sun8i-ce support which is one of the only remaining ones.
Note that the sun8i-ce support for hwrng remains in place. That is the
interface that actually matters.
As usual for crypto_rng, this driver was also buggy: its ->generate()
function had a use-after-free vulnerability due to using

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: qce - fix CCM AAD buffer underallocation
The AAD buffer allocated in qce_aead_ccm_prepare_buf_assoclen()
can be smaller than the length later programmed into the DMA
scatterlist.
The allocation size is currently calculated as:
ALIGN(assoclen, 16) + MAX_CCM_ADATA_HEADER_LEN
while the DMA length is set to:
ALIGN(assoclen + adata_header_len, 16)
Since ALIGN() does not distribute over addition, the allocation
can be smaller than the DMA length. For example, when
assoclen = 32 and adata_header_len = 2:
allocation = ALIGN(32, 16) + 6 = 38
DMA length = ALIGN(
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: mxs-dcp - fix source scatterlist length access
mxs_dcp_aes_block_crypt() uses sg_dma_len() without mapping the source
scatterlist with dma_map_sg() first. Therefore, sg_dma_len() is invalid
and could return zero or a stale DMA length, causing encryption and
decryption to process the wrong number of bytes when
CONFIG_NEED_SG_DMA_LENGTH=y.
Use the original scatterlist length instead.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: core: Add lock to usb_wakeup_notification()
Add a spin lock to usb_wakeup notification to prevent a race condition
with dereferencing freed memory. This could be hit by the xHCI driver as
it calls this function from an IRQ and could race with the
hub_disconnect() function, which properly grabs this lock to protect the
state of the device.
ALSA: usb-audio: fix OOB write in snd_usbmidi_novation_output()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: fix OOB write in snd_usbmidi_novation_output()
snd_usbmidi_novation_output() lays out a two-byte header at
transfer_buffer[0..1] and passes &transfer_buffer[2] together with a
length of ep->max_transfer - 2 to snd_rawmidi_transmit():
count = snd_rawmidi_transmit(ep->ports[0].substream,
&transfer_buffer[2],
ep->max_transfer - 2);
ep->max_transfer comes from the output endpoint's wMaxPacketSize via
usb_maxpacket(). A malformed or malicious device can advertise a bulk
OUT endpoint with a wMaxPacketSize of 1 - the USB core only clamps this
ALSA: usb-audio: Complete cleanup after system-resume errors
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: Complete cleanup after system-resume errors
A failed system resume can leave the card unusable until reboot.
usb_audio_resume() jumps to err_out when snd_usb_pcm_resume() or
snd_usb_mixer_resume() fails. The error path skips the out: block, which
restores D0 and decrements chip->num_suspended_intf.
The card stays in SNDRV_CTL_POWER_D3hot, so later control access blocks in
snd_power_ref_and_wait(). USB core logs an interface resume callback error.
It does not retry that callback, so a later callback cannot complete the
skipped cleanup.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: serial: option: fix slab OOB read in interrupt URB callback
The interrupt URB buffer is allocated in setup_port_interrupt_in() based
on the endpoint's wMaxPacketSize:
buffer_size = usb_endpoint_maxp(epd);
port->interrupt_in_buffer = kmalloc(buffer_size, GFP_KERNEL);
When a USB device declares wMaxPacketSize = 8 on its interrupt IN
endpoint, the buffer is allocated from kmalloc-8 cache (exactly
8 bytes).
If the device sends a short packet (actual_length < wMaxPacketSize),
the URB completes with status == 0 and the callback proceeds to read:
data[sizeof(s
USB: c67x00: fix use-after-free in c67x00_add_iso_urb()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: c67x00: fix use-after-free in c67x00_add_iso_urb()
When TD creation fails for the last packet of an isochronous URB,
c67x00_add_iso_urb() gives the URB back before updating the endpoint
scheduling state.
c67x00_giveback_urb() frees the URB private data, and the completion
callback may release the final URB reference. The following accesses to
urbp->ep_data, urb->interval, and urbp->cnt can therefore use freed
memory.
Update next_frame and cnt before giving back the failed final packet,
making the giveback the last operation that uses the URB and its private
data.
usb: usbfs: fix use-after-free of usb_device in usbdev_release()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: usbfs: fix use-after-free of usb_device in usbdev_release()
usbdev_release() drops its reference to the struct usb_device before
draining the list of completed async URBs, but that drain path reads back
through the same object: free_async() calls dec_usb_memory_use_count()
for any URB whose buffer came from the usbfs mmap() region, and its first
statement is bus_to_hcd(ps->dev->bus).
After a disconnect the usbfs reference can be the last one, in which case
usb_put_dev() frees the device and the subsequent loop reads offset 80 of
freed memory and uses the result as a s
nfc: st21nfca: validate ATR_REQ length against the received frame
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: st21nfca: validate ATR_REQ length against the received frame
st21nfca_tm_recv_atr_req() checks that the received ATR_REQ frame is at
least ST21NFCA_ATR_REQ_MIN_SIZE and that the self-declared atr_req->length
is at least sizeof(struct st21nfca_atr_req), but never checks that
atr_req->length does not exceed the actual received length (skb->len).
st21nfca_tm_send_atr_res() then trusts the declared length:
gb_len = atr_req->length - sizeof(struct st21nfca_atr_req);
...
memcpy(atr_res->gbi, atr_req->gbi, gb_len);
so an RF peer that sends a short frame but sets atr_req
xfs: don't livelock in scrub on a circular unlinked list
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfs: don't livelock in scrub on a circular unlinked list
LOLLM points out that online fsck can livelock if an unlinked inode list
contains a loop. Use a bitmap to detect cycles.
Bluetooth: RFCOMM: take rfcomm_mutex for the deferred setup accept
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: RFCOMM: take rfcomm_mutex for the deferred setup accept
rfcomm_sock_recvmsg() completes a deferred setup by calling
rfcomm_dlc_accept() without holding any RFCOMM lock:
if (test_and_clear_bit(RFCOMM_DEFER_SETUP, &d->flags)) {
rfcomm_dlc_accept(d);
return 0;
}
and rfcomm_dlc_accept() dereferences the session on its first line:
struct sock *sk = d->session->sock->sk;
Every other path that touches d->session runs under rfcomm_mutex:
rfcomm_dlc_open(), rfcomm_dlc_close(), rfcomm_dlc_exists(),
rfcomm_dlc_send_rpn(), and the RFCOMM thread through
rfcomm_proc
rndis_host: add overflow check in rndis_rx_fixup()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rndis_host: add overflow check in rndis_rx_fixup()
Add an overflow check to ensure that data_offset + data_len + 8 does not
wrap, which would enable an OOB read of the USB data buffer.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: dummy: Check card index validity at probe
snd_dummy_probe() blindly trusts that the given devptr->id value is
within the proper card index range. It's OK for the devices the
driver itself creates at the module probe time, but if the device is
bound manually via sysfs interface, this could be -1 as "none", and
this leads to OOB access for index[] and other parameters.
Add a sanity check for the card index and warn/correct it if it's a
value out of the range.
ocfs2: fix missing metadata reservation for large xattrs
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: fix missing metadata reservation for large xattrs
[BUG]
lsetxattr() panics the kernel when setting a large xattr value on a
fragmented filesystem where the file already has an external xattr
block.
[CAUSE]
ocfs2_calc_xattr_set_need() never reserves metadata blocks for a new
xattr value's extent tree when the file already has an external xattr
block. The not_found path leaves meta_add at zero, so meta_ac is NULL
when ocfs2_xattr_extend_allocation() runs.
A new value root has room for a single extent record. On a fragmented
filesystem, the allocator cannot satisfy th

ext4: stop retrying saturated xattr cache entries
ext4_xattr_block_set() retries when a cache entry selected for reuse
has a saturated reference count after taking the buffer lock. The retry

it can select the same unusable entry indefinitely. A task spinning
there can hold the parent directory's i_rwsem and leave concurrent
rmdir callers blocked.
Normally a reusable entry has a reference count below
EXT4_XATTR_REFCOUNT_MAX because the count and MBE_REUSABLE_B are

nilfs2: reject invalid block index in GC ioctl
Syzbot reported list corruption caused by a double list_add_tail() call on
bh->b_assoc_buffers within nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers().
Analysis revealed that the root cause was the insertion of a page/folio
with a page index of ULONG_MAX into the page cache via the GC ioctl.
filemap_get_folios_tag(), called by nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers(),
repeatedly detects a dirty folio with a page index of ULONG_MAX due to
index wrap-around, leading to duplicate processing of dirty buffers.
As a preparatory step, the GC ioctl loads
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: don't enable DAX on new encrypted files
Currently, when a new encrypted regular file is created, the call to
ext4_set_inode_flags(inode, init=true) in __ext4_new_inode() is made
before EXT4_INODE_ENCRYPT is set. As a result, it can set S_DAX if the
filesystem is mounted with "-o dax=always".
EXT4_INODE_ENCRYPT then actually gets set a bit later in
__ext4_new_inode(), when it calls fscrypt_set_context() which calls
ext4_set_context(). ext4_set_context() sets EXT4_INODE_ENCRYPT and
calls ext4_set_inode_flags(inode, init=false) to set S_ENCRYPTED too.
This was intend
