btrfs: reserve enough transaction items for qgroup ioctls
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: reserve enough transaction items for qgroup ioctls
Currently our qgroup ioctls don't reserve any space, they just do a
transaction join, which does not reserve any space, neither for the quota
tree updates nor for the delayed refs generated when updating the quota
tree. The quota root uses the global block reserve, which is fine most of
the time since we don't expect a lot of updates to the quota root, or to
be too close to -ENOSPC such that other critical metadata updates need to
resort to the global reserve.
However this is not optimal, as not reserving proper spa
Bluetooth: SMP: force responder MITM requirements before building the pairing response
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: SMP: force responder MITM requirements before building the pairing response
smp_cmd_pairing_req() currently builds the pairing response from the
initiator auth_req before enforcing the local BT_SECURITY_HIGH
requirement. If the initiator omits SMP_AUTH_MITM, the response can
also omit it even though the local side still requires MITM.
tk_request() then sees an auth value without SMP_AUTH_MITM and may
select JUST_CFM, making method selection inconsistent with the pairing
policy the responder already enforces.
When the local side requires HIGH security, first ver
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: solo6x10: Check for out of bounds chip_id
Clang with CONFIG_UBSAN_SHIFT=y noticed a condition where a signed type
(literal "1" is an "int") could end up being shifted beyond 32 bits,
so instrumentation was added (and due to the double is_tw286x() call
seen via inlining), Clang decides the second one must now be undefined
behavior and elides the rest of the function[1]. This is a known problem
with Clang (that is still being worked on), but we can avoid the entire
problem by actually checking the existing max chip ID, and now there is
no runtime instrumentation added
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm: remove fake timeout to avoid leak request
Since commit 15f73f5b3e59 ("blk-mq: move failure injection out of
blk_mq_complete_request"), drivers are responsible for calling
blk_should_fake_timeout() at appropriate code paths and opportunities.
However, the dm driver does not implement its own timeout handler and
relies on the timeout handling of its slave devices.
If an io-timeout-fail error is injected to a dm device, the request
will be leaked and never completed, causing tasks to hang indefinitely.
Reproduce:
1. prepare dm which has iscsi slave device
2. inject io-t
ACPI: processor: Fix NULL-pointer dereference in acpi_processor_errata_piix4()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPI: processor: Fix NULL-pointer dereference in acpi_processor_errata_piix4()
In acpi_processor_errata_piix4(), the pointer dev is first assigned an IDE
device and then reassigned an ISA device:
dev = pci_get_subsys(..., PCI_DEVICE_ID_INTEL_82371AB, ...);
dev = pci_get_subsys(..., PCI_DEVICE_ID_INTEL_82371AB_0, ...);
If the first lookup succeeds but the second fails, dev becomes NULL. This
leads to a potential null-pointer dereference when dev_dbg() is called:
if (errata.piix4.bmisx)
dev_dbg(&dev->dev, ...);
To prevent this, use two temporary pointers and ret
btrfs: don't BUG() on unexpected delayed ref type in run_one_delayed_ref()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: don't BUG() on unexpected delayed ref type in run_one_delayed_ref()
There is no need to BUG(), we can just return an error and log an error
message.
drm/v3d: Set DMA segment size to avoid debug warnings
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/v3d: Set DMA segment size to avoid debug warnings
When using V3D rendering with CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG enabled, the
kernel occasionally reports a segment size mismatch. This is because
'max_seg_size' is not set. The kernel defaults to 64K. setting
'max_seg_size' to the maximum will prevent 'debug_dma_map_sg()'
from complaining about the over-mapping of the V3D segment length.

btrfs: do not ASSERT() when the fs flips RO inside btrfs_repair_io_failure()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: do not ASSERT() when the fs flips RO inside btrfs_repair_io_failure()
[BUG]
There is a bug report that when btrfs hits ENOSPC error in a critical
path, btrfs flips RO (this part is expected, although the ENOSPC bug
still needs to be addressed).
The problem is after the RO flip, if there is a read repair pending, we
can hit the ASSERT() inside btrfs_repair_io_failure() like the following:

octeontx2-af: Workaround SQM/PSE stalls by disabling sticky
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
octeontx2-af: Workaround SQM/PSE stalls by disabling sticky
NIX SQ manager sticky mode is known to cause stalls when multiple SQs
share an SMQ and transmit concurrently. Additionally, PSE may deadlock
on transitions between sticky and non-sticky transmissions. There is
also a credit drop issue observed when certain condition clocks are
gated.
work around these hardware errata by:
- Disabling SQM sticky operation:
- Clear TM6 (bit 15)
- Clear TM11 (bit 14)
- Disabling sticky → non-sticky transition path that can deadlock PSE:
- Clear TM5 (bit 23)
- Preventing credit d

drm: Account property blob allocations to memcg
DRM_IOCTL_MODE_CREATEPROPBLOB allows userspace to allocate arbitrary-sized
property blobs backed by kernel memory.
Currently, the blob data allocation is not accounted to the allocating
process's memory cgroup, allowing unprivileged users to trigger unbounded
kernel memory consumption and potentially cause system-wide OOM.
Mark the property blob data allocation with GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT so that the memory
is properly charged to the caller's memcg. This ensures existing cgroup
memory limits apply and prevents uncontrolled kerne
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
jfs: nlink overflow in jfs_rename
If nlink is maximal for a directory (-1) and inside that directory you
perform a rename for some child directory (not moving from the parent),
then the nlink of the first directory is first incremented and later
decremented. Normally this is fine, but when nlink = -1 this causes a
wrap around to 0, and then drop_nlink issues a warning.
After applying the patch syzbot no longer issues any warnings. I also
ran some basic fs tests to look for any regressions.
mailbox: Prevent out-of-bounds access in fw_mbox_index_xlate()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mailbox: Prevent out-of-bounds access in fw_mbox_index_xlate()
Although it is guided that `#mbox-cells` must be at least 1, there are
many instances of `#mbox-cells = <0>;` in the device tree. If that is
the case and the corresponding mailbox controller does not provide
`fw_xlate` and of_xlate` function pointers, `fw_mbox_index_xlate()` will
be used by default and out-of-bounds accesses could occur due to lack of
bounds check in that function.
ALSA: usb-audio: Add sanity check for OOB writes at silencing
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: Add sanity check for OOB writes at silencing
At silencing the playback URB packets in the implicit fb mode before
the actual playback, we blindly assume that the received packets fit
with the buffer size. But when the setup in the capture stream
differs from the playback stream (e.g. due to the USB core limitation
of max packet size), such an inconsistency may lead to OOB writes to
the buffer, resulting in a crash.
For addressing it, add a sanity check of the transfer buffer size at
prepare_silent_urb(), and stop the data copy if the received data

APEI/GHES: ensure that won't go past CPER allocated record
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
APEI/GHES: ensure that won't go past CPER allocated record
The logic at ghes_new() prevents allocating too large records, by
checking if they're bigger than GHES_ESTATUS_MAX_SIZE (currently, 64KB).
Yet, the allocation is done with the actual number of pages from the
CPER bios table location, which can be smaller.
Yet, a bad firmware could send data with a different size, which might
be bigger than the allocated memory, causing an OOPS:

ceph: supply snapshot context in ceph_zero_partial_object()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

The ceph_zero_partial_object function was missing proper snapshot
context for its OSD write operations, which could lead to data
inconsistencies in snapshots.

EFI/CPER: don't go past the ARM processor CPER record buffer
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
EFI/CPER: don't go past the ARM processor CPER record buffer
There's a logic inside GHES/CPER to detect if the section_length
is too small, but it doesn't detect if it is too big.
Currently, if the firmware receives an ARM processor CPER record
stating that a section length is big, kernel will blindly trust
section_length, producing a very long dump. For instance, a 67
bytes record with ERR_INFO_NUM set 46198 and section length
set to 854918320 would dump a lot of data going a way past the
firmware memory-mapped area.
Fix it by adding a logic to prevent it to go past the
fbdev: of: display_timing: fix refcount leak in of_get_display_timings()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: of: display_timing: fix refcount leak in of_get_display_timings()
of_parse_phandle() returns a device_node with refcount incremented,
which is stored in 'entry' and then copied to 'native_mode'. When the
error paths at lines 184 or 192 jump to 'entryfail', native_mode's
refcount is not decremented, causing a refcount leak.
Fix this by changing the goto target from 'entryfail' to 'timingfail',
which properly calls of_node_put(native_mode) before cleanup.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gfs2: fiemap page fault fix
In gfs2_fiemap(), we are calling iomap_fiemap() while holding the inode
glock. This can lead to recursive glock taking if the fiemap buffer is
memory mapped to the same inode and accessing it triggers a page fault.
Fix by disabling page faults for iomap_fiemap() and faulting in the
buffer by hand if necessary.
