crypto: sun4i-ss - Remove insecure and unused rng_alg
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: sun4i-ss - Remove insecure and unused rng_alg
Remove sun4i_ss_rng, as it is insecure and unused:
- It has multiple vulnerabilities. sun4i_ss_prng_seed() is missing
locking and has a buffer overflow. sun4i_ss_prng_generate() fails to
fill the entire buffer with cryptographic random bytes, because it
rounds the destination length down and also doesn't actually wait for
the hardware to be ready before pulling bytes from it.
- No user of this code is known. It's usable only theoretically via the
"rng" algorithm type of AF_ALG. But userspace actually just
rxrpc: serialize kernel accept preallocation with socket teardown
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rxrpc: serialize kernel accept preallocation with socket teardown
rxrpc_kernel_charge_accept() reads rx->backlog without any
socket/backlog synchronization and passes that raw pointer into
rxrpc_service_prealloc_one(). A concurrent rxrpc_discard_prealloc()
sets rx->backlog = NULL and frees the backlog rings, so a kernel
preallocation worker can keep using a freed struct rxrpc_backlog
while updating *_backlog_head/tail and array slots.
Serialize the state check and backlog lookup with the socket lock,
and reject kernel preallocation once teardown has disabled
listening or d
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rxrpc: rxrpc_verify_data ensure rx_dec_buffer alloc
rxrpc_recvmsg_data() calls rxrpc_verify_data() whenever the
rxrpc_call.rx_dec_buffer is unallocated and assumes that upon
successful return that rx_dec_buffer must be allocated.
However, rxrpc_verify_data() does not request an allocation if
the rxrpc_skb_priv.len is zero.
In addition, failure to allocate rx_dec_buffer will result in a
call to skb_copy_bits() with a NULL destination which can
trigger a NULL pointer dereference.
To prevent these issues rxrpc_verify_data() is modified to
always attempt to allocate the rxrpc
rxrpc: Fix leak of released call in recvmsg(MSG_PEEK)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rxrpc: Fix leak of released call in recvmsg(MSG_PEEK)
Fix rxrpc_recvmsg() to also drop the ref it holds on an already-released
call if MSG_PEEK is in force (the function holds a ref on the call
irrespective of whether MSG_PEEK is specified or not).
afs: Fix netns teardown to cancel the preallocation charger
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
afs: Fix netns teardown to cancel the preallocation charger
Fix the teardown of an afs network namespace to make sure it cancels the
work item that keeps the preallocated rxrpc call/conn/peer queue charged
before incoming calls are disabled (i.e. listen 0).
Also, if net->live is false because the afs netns is being deleted, make
afs_charge_preallocation() skip charging and make afs_rx_new_call() avoid
requeuing the charger.
(This was found by AI review).
afs: fix NULL pointer dereference in afs_get_tree()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
afs: fix NULL pointer dereference in afs_get_tree()
afs_alloc_sbi() uses kzalloc for memory allocation. And, if
ctx->dyn_root is not null, as->cell and as->volume are null.
In trace_afs_get_tree() they are dereferenced.

fbcon: fix NULL pointer dereference for a console without vc_data
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbcon: fix NULL pointer dereference for a console without vc_data
fbcon_new_modelist() runs when a framebuffer's modelist changes. For each
console mapped to it with fb_display[i].mode set, it reads vc_cons[i].d and
passes the vc_num to fbcon_set_disp(). This assumes a console with a mode
set has a vc_data, but it can be NULL. fbcon_set_disp() sets
fb_display[i].mode before it checks vc_data, and fbcon_deinit() leaves the
mode set after the vc_data is freed. fbcon_new_modelist() then dereferences
the NULL vc_data.
Keep fb_display[i].mode set only while the console has a vc
drm/radeon: fix integer overflow in radeon_align_pitch()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/radeon: fix integer overflow in radeon_align_pitch()
radeon_align_pitch() has the same kind of overflow issue as the old
amdgpu helper: both the alignment round-up add and the final
'aligned * cpp' calculation can overflow signed int.
If that wraps, radeon_mode_dumb_create() can end up returning an
invalid pitch or creating a zero-sized dumb buffer.
Fix this by using check_add_overflow() for the alignment round-up and
check_mul_overflow() for the final pitch calculation, returning 0 on
overflow. Also reject zero pitch and size in
radeon_mode_dumb_create().

drm/radeon: fix memory leak in radeon_ring_restore() on lock failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/radeon: fix memory leak in radeon_ring_restore() on lock failure
radeon_ring_restore() takes ownership of the data buffer allocated by
radeon_ring_backup(). The caller (radeon_gpu_reset()) only frees it in
the non-restore branch; in the restore branch it relies on
radeon_ring_restore() to free it.
If radeon_ring_lock() fails, the function returned early without calling
kvfree(data), leaking the ring backup buffer on every GPU reset that
fails at the lock stage. During repeated GPU resets this causes
cumulative kernel memory exhaustion.

wifi: rtw89: Correct data type for scan index to avoid infinite loop
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtw89: Correct data type for scan index to avoid infinite loop
A kernel soft lockup was observed during Wi-Fi scanning on the 6GHz band.
The CPU becomes stuck in rtw89_hw_scan_add_chan_ax for over 20 seconds,
leading to a system panic.
RIP points to 0f b6 c3 (movzbl %bl, %eax), which zero-extends
the low 8 bits of RBX into RAX.
RBX (the counter i) has reached a huge value: 0x137466a1.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtw88: fix OOB read from firmware RX descriptor exceeding DMA buffer
In rtw_pci_rx_napi(), new_len is computed as the sum of pkt_len (14-bit
descriptor field, max 16383) and pkt_offset (drv_info_sz + shift, both
firmware-controlled). The result can exceed RTK_PCI_RX_BUF_SIZE (11478),
causing an out-of-bounds read from the pre-allocated DMA buffer when
skb_put_data copies new_len bytes. The USB transport already validates
this (rtw_usb_rx_data_put checks against RTW_USB_MAX_RECVBUF_SZ); the
PCIe path does not.
Add a check that new_len does not exceed the DMA buffer si
wifi: ath9k: fix OOB access from firmware tx status queue ID
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath9k: fix OOB access from firmware tx status queue ID
ath_tx_edma_tasklet() accesses sc->tx.txq[ts.qid] where ts.qid is a
4-bit hardware field (0-15), but the txq array only has
ATH9K_NUM_TX_QUEUES (10) entries. A qid >= 10 causes an OOB array
access.
Add a bounds check on ts.qid before using it as an array index.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath11k: cancel SSR work items during PCI shutdown
A reboot can crash the kernel if it overlaps with WLAN firmware crash
recovery (SSR). The crash is a NULL pointer dereference in the MHI teardown
path while freeing DMA-backed MHI contexts.

crypto: atmel-sha204a - fix blocking and non-blocking rng logic
The blocking and non-blocking paths were failing to provide valid entropy
due to improper buffer management. Reading the buffer starting from byte 1,

Tested on an Atmel SHA204A device.
Before (here for blocking), tests showed repeatedly reading reduced bytes.

dlm: fix add msg handle in send_queue ordered
In a benchmark scenario triggering a lot of requests that triggers a lot
of DLM messages on the network it can be that the mh->seq is not ordered
according the oldest seq number. This ordering is required by
dlm_receive_ack as "before(mh->seq, seq)" will stop to check for older
sequence numbers that are ordered in the tail of "node->send_queue".
The side effects of not having it correct ordered regarding
"before(mh->seq, seq)" are refcounting issues and use-after free.
I only was able to reproduce this issue in a experimental
evm: terminate and bound the evm_xattrs read buffer
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
evm: terminate and bound the evm_xattrs read buffer
evm_read_xattrs() allocates size + 1 bytes, fills them from the list of
enabled xattrs, and then passes strlen(temp) to
simple_read_from_buffer(). When no configured xattrs are enabled, the
fill loop stores nothing and temp[0] remains uninitialized, so strlen()
reads beyond initialized memory.
Explicitly terminate the buffer after allocation, use snprintf() for
each formatted line, and pass the accumulated length, without risk of
truncation, to simple_read_from_buffer().
ipv6: addrconf: bail out of dad_failure when state is no longer POSTDAD
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: addrconf: bail out of dad_failure when state is no longer POSTDAD
addrconf_dad_failure() transitions ifp->state from DAD to POSTDAD
via addrconf_dad_end(), which drops ifp->lock on return. The lock
is re-acquired after net_info_ratelimited(). A concurrent
ipv6_del_addr() can take the lock in that window, set ifp->state
to DEAD and run list_del_rcu(&ifp->if_list).
addrconf_dad_failure() then overwrites DEAD with ERRDAD at errdad:
and schedules a new dad_work. The work calls ipv6_del_addr()
again, hitting the already-poisoned list entry:

IB/mlx5: Fix transport-domain rollback and initialize lb mutex earlier
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
IB/mlx5: Fix transport-domain rollback and initialize lb mutex earlier
mlx5_ib_alloc_transport_domain() allocates a transport domain and then
may fail in mlx5_ib_enable_lb(). In that case, the allocated TD is leaked.
Fix this by deallocating the TD when mlx5_ib_enable_lb() returns an
error. Also return 0 explicitly in the no-loopback-capability success
branch, and move dev->lb.mutex initialization to mlx5_ib_stage_init_init().
