ata: libahci: clear PxCLBU and PxFBU for AHCI_HFLAG_32BIT_ONLY
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ata: libahci: clear PxCLBU and PxFBU for AHCI_HFLAG_32BIT_ONLY
A user reported that commit 105c42566a55 ("ata: ahci: force 32-bit DMA for
JMicron JMB582/JMB585") made the JMicron JMB585 unusable on his board.
The failure is seen as soon as the ahci driver is probed, and booting with
iommu=off does not solve the problem.
Looking at the AHCI specification, PxCLBU and PxFBU are both read only '0'
for HBAs that do not support 64-bit addressing.
For HBAs that do support 64-bit addressing, the registers are read write,
with a reset value that is Implementation Specific.

rds: ib: use rds_conn_drop() on protocol version mismatch
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rds: ib: use rds_conn_drop() on protocol version mismatch
rds_ib_cm_connect_complete() runs from the RDMA-CM event handler with
conn->c_cm_lock held. When the peer negotiates a protocol version
older than RDS_PROTOCOL_COMPAT_VERSION, the handler calls
rds_conn_destroy(), which is only safe in the rmmod path: it
synchronously tears the connection down and flush_work()es the
shutdown work cp_down_w.
That shutdown work (rds_conn_shutdown()) needs cp_cm_lock, which is
the very lock the event handler still holds, so the flush never
completes: the two workers wait on each other
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp: exclude old ACKs from tcp fast path
Exclude old ACKs before SND.UNA from the tcp fast path
as well as ACKs after SND.NXT.
Such ACKs will fall through to the slow path, where tcp_ack()
performs the appropriate validation and challenge ACK handling
according to RFC5961 and Commit 3d501dd326fb1c7 ("tcp: do not
accept ACK of bytes we never sent").
This prevents old ACKs from being accepted
or modifying connection state as part of the fast path before
appropriate ACK validation is applied.
In particular, this prevents payload carried by a segment with
an excessively old A
RDMA/core: fix refcount bug in iwpm_get_nlmsg_request()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/core: fix refcount bug in iwpm_get_nlmsg_request()
iwpm_get_nlmsg_request() initializes refcount _after_ list_add_tail()
making it accessible to global list where another CPU can kref_get()
on nlmsg_request causing a refcount "addition on 0" bug. Fix this
by initializing kref _before_ list_add_tail() so refcount for
nlmsg_request can be incremented/decremented normally. In addition,
also initialize every field before list_add_tail().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
openvswitch: avoid reallocating confirmed conntrack labels
ovs_ct_get_conn_labels() adds the labels extension when a conntrack
entry does not have one. Confirmed conntracks can be read locklessly,
so adding an extension may reallocate and free the extension block
while another CPU accesses it.
Only add the extension for unconfirmed conntracks. A confirmed
conntrack without labels now fails the caller's label operation instead
of reallocating its extension storage.
arm64: percpu: Fix LSE operations on {8,16}-bit types
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: percpu: Fix LSE operations on {8,16}-bit types
The assembly for __percpu_##name##_case_##sz() and
__percpu_##name##_return_case_##sz() doesn't use the 'sfx' macro
argument to form the LSE instruction. Without 'sfx', a W register
argument will imply a 32-bit memory location, and consequently
{8,16}-bit ops will erroneously read and write 32 bits of memory when
the LSE instruction is used.
Fix this by appending 'sfx' to 'op_lse' to LSE instruction. It is not
necessary (and not valid) to append 'sfx' to 'op_llsc', as 'op_llsc' is
a register-register operation which doe
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: xfrm: use full sockets in local error paths
xfrm6_local_rxpmtu() and xfrm6_local_error() dereference skb->sk as if it
always pointed at a full IPv6 socket.
That is not guaranteed. TCP SYN-ACK skbs can be owned by a
TCP_NEW_SYN_RECV request_sock while the output path itself is driven by the
full listener. If rerouting selects an IPv6 XFRM tunnel route with a lower
MTU, the local PMTU/error handling path can reach these callbacks with that
mini-socket still attached to the skb.
The callbacks then miscast the request socket as a full inet/IPv6 socket and
can read beyon
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: hhf: cap hh_flows_limit at change time
hhf_change() stores TCA_HHF_HH_FLOWS_LIMIT with no upper bound. A huge
hh_flows_limit lets each new heavy-hitter flow pass the
hh_flows_current_cnt check in alloc_new_hh() and forces a fixed-size
kzalloc(GFP_ATOMIC) per flow under spoofed traffic, for unbounded memory
growth.
Bound the attribute with NLA_POLICY_MAX() at 2*HH_FLOWS_CNT (the
hhf_init() default) and report the rejected value via extack. The
deprecated nested parse is kept: legacy tc does not set NLA_F_NESTED on
TCA_OPTIONS. Configs relying on hh_limit above th
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/packet: clear RX owner on VNET header error
Commit 61fad6816fc1 ("net/packet: tpacket_rcv: avoid a producer race
condition") added rx_owner_map and made tpacket_rcv() claim a V1 or V2
ring slot before converting the virtio-net header. If the conversion
fails, the drop path leaves the slot claimed.
With a one-frame TPACKET_V2 ring, an unsupported UDP GSO packet leaves
the only slot unavailable, so the ring also drops the next valid packet.
Clear the ownership bit on this error path. TPACKET_V3 already clears
its block state here.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: save input state data before secpath resets
xfrm_input() stores the current xfrm_state in the skb secpath while it
continues receive-side processing. Some input paths can reset that secpath
before xfrm_input() has finished dereferencing the state.
Receive callback users such as VTI and XFRM interfaces can reset the
secpath. The VTI receive path does so before checking whether the packet
crosses network namespaces, while the XFRM interface path does so only for
cross-network-namespace packets. The XFRM_MAX_DEPTH error path can also
reset the secpath before the final d
memstick: ms_block: destroy io_queue workqueue on removal
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
memstick: ms_block: destroy io_queue workqueue on removal
msb_init_disk() creates the per-card ordered workqueue msb->io_queue with
alloc_ordered_workqueue(). It is torn down with destroy_workqueue() only
on the init error path; msb_remove() never destroys it. msb_stop() merely
flushes the queue, and neither msb_data_clear() nor put_disk() free it. As
a result every card insert/remove cycle leaks the workqueue and its
kworker, exhausting kernel memory over repeated cycles.
Destroy the workqueue in msb_remove() after the disk has been removed and
the queue drained.
KEYS: encrypted: fix integer overflow of datablob_len
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KEYS: encrypted: fix integer overflow of datablob_len
encrypted_key_alloc() stores datablob_len in a u16. It is computed from
multiple string and payload lengths. If the result exceeds U16_MAX, the
assignment truncates the allocation size. KASAN reports a 32760-byte
slab-out-of-bounds write when __ekey_init() copies the master key
description into the undersized buffer.
The total payload length stored in key->datalen is also a u16. Use
check_add_overflow() to reject values that do not fit either destination,
and use kzalloc_flex() for the flexible-array allocation.
IB/mlx4: Fix use-after-free on pkey sysfs registration failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
IB/mlx4: Fix use-after-free on pkey sysfs registration failure
register_pkey_tree() ignores errors from register_one_pkey_tree() and
continues registering the remaining slaves. The per-slave error path has
already released the pkey parent kobjects, but their pointers remain
stored in the device. A later device cleanup therefore passes the stale
pointers to kobject_put(), causing a use-after-free.
Clear the parent pointers after releasing a failed slave tree and skip
unregistered trees during device cleanup. This preserves the existing
best-effort registration behavior whil
mmc: core: Cancel SDIO IRQ work before freeing host
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: core: Cancel SDIO IRQ work before freeing host
A host controller that uses sdio_signal_irq() schedules host->sdio_irq_work
from its interrupt handler. That work is only cancelled on the suspend
path (mmc_sdio_suspend()), not on the remove/free path, so a worker armed
just before the controller freed its IRQ can run after
mmc_host_classdev_release() has freed the host and dereference it through
container_of().
Cancel host->sdio_irq_work in mmc_free_host(), like the existing
host->detect drain added by commit 1036f69e2513 ("mmc: core: Cancel
delayed work before releasi
mmc: mxcmmc: cancel data work and watchdog on remove
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: mxcmmc: cancel data work and watchdog on remove
mxcmci_remove() frees the host through the devm tail, but neither it nor
mmc_remove_host() drains the driver's own asynchronous state.
host->watchdog, a 10 s timer armed on the DMA path in mxcmci_setup_data(),
is deleted only by the DMA- and IRQ-complete paths, which the remove path
does not explicitly drain; it can therefore fire after the host is freed
and dereference it in mxcmci_watchdog(). host->datawork, armed from the
IRQ handler on the PIO path, is not cancelled by the remove path either.
Free the devm-registere
mmc: sdhci-of-aspeed: Remove children before releasing SDC resources
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: sdhci-of-aspeed: Remove children before releasing SDC resources
Probe failure and removal leave SDHCI child devices registered after the
parent clock and managed resources are released.
Unregister the OF children in reverse order before disabling the parent
clock on both paths. Use of_platform_device_destroy() because manual
child creation does not set the flag required by of_platform_depopulate().
This issue was identified during our ongoing static-analysis research
while reviewing kernel code.
mmc: sdio_uart: fix xmit_fifo leak when the port table is full
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: sdio_uart: fix xmit_fifo leak when the port table is full
sdio_uart_add_port() allocates the transmit fifo before claiming a
slot in sdio_uart_table[]. When all UART_NR slots are taken, it
returns -EBUSY with the fifo still allocated, but the probe error
path only kfree()s the port, leaking the transmit fifo.
Free the fifo in the failure path of sdio_uart_add_port() itself so
the function retains nothing on error.
mmc: spi: reset bytes_xfered before retrying CRC failures
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: spi: reset bytes_xfered before retrying CRC failures
mmc_spi_data_do() updates data->bytes_xfered after each block has been
transferred successfully. If a later block in the same data request
fails with a CRC error, data->bytes_xfered may therefore contain the
number of bytes completed before the failing block.
mmc_spi_request() has a private recovery path for such CRC failures. It
sends STOP_TRANSMISSION, clears data->error and jumps back to
crc_recover to issue the same command and data request again. However,
it does not clear data->bytes_xfered before the retry
Input: evdev - zero absinfo before partial copy in EVIOCSABS
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: evdev - zero absinfo before partial copy in EVIOCSABS
The EVIOCSABS handler copies at most the user supplied ioctl size into
an uninitialized on-stack struct input_absinfo:
if (copy_from_user(&abs, p, min_t(size_t,
size, sizeof(struct input_absinfo))))
The size comes from _IOC_SIZE() of the ioctl command and is therefore
fully controlled by userspace. A short size leaves the trailing part of
the structure holding whatever was on the kernel stack, and the whole
structure is then stored into the device:
dev->absinfo[t] = abs;
EVIOCGABS hands that back to users
Input: rmi_smbus - fix out-of-bounds read in rmi_smb_write_block()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: rmi_smbus - fix out-of-bounds read in rmi_smb_write_block()
When chunking writes into SMBus blocks in rmi_smb_write_block(), the
loop calculates block_len using the original total length (len) instead
of the remaining length (cur_len).
If len is greater than 32 bytes (SMB_MAX_COUNT), block_len remains 32
for every iteration, even on the final partial chunk where fewer than 32
bytes remain. This causes smb_block_write() to read 32 bytes from the
advanced data buffer pointer, reading past the end of the input buffer.
Fix this by calculating block_len using cur_len an
