fs/omfs: reject s_sys_blocksize smaller than OMFS_DIR_START
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/omfs: reject s_sys_blocksize smaller than OMFS_DIR_START
omfs_fill_super() rejects oversized s_sys_blocksize values (> PAGE_SIZE),
but it does not reject values smaller than OMFS_DIR_START (0x1b8 = 440).
Later, omfs_make_empty() uses
sbi->s_sys_blocksize - OMFS_DIR_START
as the length argument to memset(). Since s_sys_blocksize is u32,
a crafted filesystem image with s_sys_blocksize < OMFS_DIR_START causes
an unsigned underflow there, wrapping to a value near 2^32. That drives
a ~4 GiB memset() from bh->b_data + OMFS_DIR_START and overwrites kernel
memory far be
fs/mbcache: cancel shrink work before destroying the cache
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/mbcache: cancel shrink work before destroying the cache
mb_cache_destroy() calls shrinker_free() and then frees all cache
entries and the cache itself, but it does not cancel the pending
c_shrink_work work item first.
If mb_cache_entry_create() schedules c_shrink_work via schedule_work()
and the work item is still pending or running when mb_cache_destroy()
runs, mb_cache_shrink_worker() will access the cache after its memory
has been freed, causing a use-after-free.
This is only reachable by a privileged user (root or CAP_SYS_ADMIN)
who can trigger the last put of a mo
drbd: Balance RCU calls in drbd_adm_dump_devices()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drbd: Balance RCU calls in drbd_adm_dump_devices()
Make drbd_adm_dump_devices() call rcu_read_lock() before
rcu_read_unlock() is called. This has been detected by the Clang
thread-safety analyzer.
btrfs: fix deadlock between reflink and transaction commit when using flushoncommit
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix deadlock between reflink and transaction commit when using flushoncommit
When using the flushoncommit mount option, we can have a deadlock between
a transaction commit and a reflink operation that copied an inline extent
to an offset beyond the current i_size of the destination node.
The deadlock happens like this:
1) Task A clones an inline extent from inode X to an offset of inode Y
that is beyond Y's current i_size. This means we copied the inline
extent's data to a folio of inode Y that is beyond its EOF, using a
call to copy_inline_to_page();

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI: use generic driver_override infrastructure
When a driver is probed through __driver_attach(), the bus' match()
callback is called without the device lock held, thus accessing the
driver_override field without a lock, which can cause a UAF.
Fix this by using the driver-core driver_override infrastructure taking
care of proper locking internally.
Note that calling match() from __driver_attach() without the device lock
held is intentional. [1]

wifi: rtlwifi: pci: fix possible use-after-free caused by unfinished irq_prepare_bcn_tasklet
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtlwifi: pci: fix possible use-after-free caused by unfinished irq_prepare_bcn_tasklet
The irq_prepare_bcn_tasklet is initialized in rtl_pci_init() and
scheduled when RTL_IMR_BCNINT interrupt is triggered by hardware.
But it is never killed in rtl_pci_deinit(). When the rtlwifi card
probe fails or is being detached, the ieee80211_hw is deallocated.
However, irq_prepare_bcn_tasklet may still be running or pending,
leading to use-after-free when the freed ieee80211_hw is accessed
in _rtl_pci_prepare_bcn_tasklet().
Similar to irq_tasklet, add tasklet_kill() in rtl_pci_d
bpf: test_run: Fix the null pointer dereference issue in bpf_lwt_xmit_push_encap
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: test_run: Fix the null pointer dereference issue in bpf_lwt_xmit_push_encap
The bpf_lwt_xmit_push_encap helper needs to access skb_dst(skb)->dev to
calculate the needed headroom:
err = skb_cow_head(skb,
len + LL_RESERVED_SPACE(skb_dst(skb)->dev));
But skb->_skb_refdst may not be initialized when the skb is set up by
bpf_prog_test_run_skb function. Executing bpf_lwt_push_ip_encap function
in this scenario will trigger null pointer dereference, causing a kernel
crash as Yinhao reported:

powerpc/64s: Fix unmap race with PMD migration entries
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/64s: Fix unmap race with PMD migration entries
The following race is possible with migration swap entries or
device-private THP entries. e.g. when move_pages is called on a PMD THP
page, then there maybe an intermediate state, where PMD entry acts as
a migration swap entry (pmd_present() is true). Then if an munmap
happens at the same time, then this VM_BUG_ON() can happen in
pmdp_huge_get_and_clear_full().
This patch fixes that.

wifi: libertas: don't kill URBs in interrupt context
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: libertas: don't kill URBs in interrupt context
Serialization for the TX path was enforced by calling
usb_kill_urb()/usb_kill_anchored_urbs(), to prevent transmission before
a previous URB was completed. usb_tx_block() can be called from
interrupt context (e.g. in the HCD giveback path), so we can't always
use it to kill in-flight URBs.
Prevent sleeping during interrupt context by checking the tx_submitted
anchor for existing URBs. We now return -EBUSY, to indicate there's
a pending request.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Do not allow deleting local storage in NMI
Currently, local storage may deadlock when deferring freeing selem or
local storage through kfree_rcu(), call_rcu() or call_rcu_tasks_trace()
in NMI or reentrant. Since deleting selem in NMI is an unlikely use
case, partially mitigate it by returning error when calling from
bpf_xxx_storage_delete() helpers in NMI. Note that, it is still possible
to deadlock through reentrant. A full mitigation requires returning
error when irqs_disabled() is true, which, however is too heavy-handed
for bpf_xxx_storage_delete().

bpf: Use RCU-safe iteration in dev_map_redirect_multi() SKB path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Use RCU-safe iteration in dev_map_redirect_multi() SKB path
The DEVMAP_HASH branch in dev_map_redirect_multi() uses
hlist_for_each_entry_safe() to iterate hash buckets, but this function
runs under RCU protection (called from xdp_do_generic_redirect_map()
in softirq context). Concurrent writers (__dev_map_hash_update_elem,
dev_map_hash_delete_elem) modify the list using RCU primitives
(hlist_add_head_rcu, hlist_del_rcu).
hlist_for_each_entry_safe() performs plain pointer dereferences without
rcu_dereference(), missing the acquire barrier needed to pair with
writers' r

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: pull headers in qdisc_pkt_len_segs_init()
Most ndo_start_xmit() methods expects headers of gso packets
to be already in skb->head.
net/core/tso.c users are particularly at risk, because tso_build_hdr()
does a memcpy(hdr, skb->data, hdr_len);
qdisc_pkt_len_segs_init() already does a dissection of gso packets.
Use pskb_may_pull() instead of skb_header_pointer() to make
sure drivers do not have to reimplement this.
Some malicious packets could be fed, detect them so that we can
drop them sooner with a new SKB_DROP_REASON_SKB_BAD_GSO drop_reason.
bpf: Fix ld_{abs,ind} failure path analysis in subprogs
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix ld_{abs,ind} failure path analysis in subprogs
Usage of ld_{abs,ind} instructions got extended into subprogs some time
ago via commit 09b28d76eac4 ("bpf: Add abnormal return checks."). These
are only allowed in subprograms when the latter are BTF annotated and
have scalar return types.
The code generator in bpf_gen_ld_abs() has an abnormal exit path (r0=0 +
exit) from legacy cBPF times. While the enforcement is on scalar return
types, the verifier must also simulate the path of abnormal exit if the
packet data load via ld_{abs,ind} failed.
This is currently not t
bpf: Fix use-after-free in offloaded map/prog info fill
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix use-after-free in offloaded map/prog info fill
When querying info for an offloaded BPF map or program,
bpf_map_offload_info_fill_ns() and bpf_prog_offload_info_fill_ns()
obtain the network namespace with get_net(dev_net(offmap->netdev)).
However, the associated netdev's netns may be racing with teardown
during netns destruction. If the netns refcount has already reached 0,
get_net() performs a refcount_t increment on 0, triggering:
refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.
Although rtnl_lock and bpf_devs_lock ensure the netdev pointer remains
valid, they canno
net: bcmgenet: fix off-by-one in bcmgenet_put_txcb
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bcmgenet: fix off-by-one in bcmgenet_put_txcb
The write_ptr points to the next open tx_cb. We want to return the
tx_cb that gets rewinded, so we must rewind the pointer first then
return the tx_cb that it points to. That way the txcb can be correctly
cleaned up.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bcmgenet: fix racing timeout handler
The bcmgenet_timeout handler tries to take down all tx queues when
a single queue times out. This is over zealous and causes many race
conditions with queues that are still chugging along. Instead lets
only restart the timed out queue.

bpf: Fix RCU stall in bpf_fd_array_map_clear()
Add a missing cond_resched() in bpf_fd_array_map_clear() loop.
For PROG_ARRAY maps with many entries this loop calls
prog_array_map_poke_run() per entry which can be expensive, and
without yielding this can cause RCU stalls under load:
