Drivers: hv: Don't reset VMBus connection state on error/exit paths
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Drivers: hv: Don't reset VMBus connection state on error/exit paths
In two places, current code forces vmbus_connection.conn_state to
DISCONNECTED prior to calling vmbus_disconnect(). But vmbus_disconnect()
calls vmbus_initiate_unload(), which unloads the VMBus connection
only if the conn_state is CONNECTED. Consequently, the connection
remains and the Hyper-V host might continue to send messages or post
VMBus interrupts.
The problem was introduced in commit 74347a99e73ae ("x86/Hyper-V:
Unload vmbus channel in hv panic callback"), in that
vmbus_initiate_unload() started ch
power: supply: core: prevent unregistering a power supply while a callback runs
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
power: supply: core: prevent unregistering a power supply while a callback runs
Once a power supply is registered, its callbacks can immediately start
firing from other contexts, such as external_power_changed() triggered by
the TCPM stack. If a power supply is unregistered while the callback is
still running, the driver data can already be freed when the callback
tries to access it, leading to a use-after-free.
This happens e.g. when the hardware bus carrying the power supply device
malfunctions (e.g. I2C is hogged down by another malfunctioning device)
immediately after
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vsock: treat TCP_CLOSING as once-established
Handle the TCP_ESTABLISHED -> TCP_CLOSING transition on OP_RST, which can
race with the connect loop. Immediately break and return 0 on
ESTABLISHED/CLOSING. The return value of connect() should reflect what
happened up to the point the connection was established or failed. Events
that occur afterwards must not affect it. E.g. even if OP_RW has already
set sk_err, connect() should still return 0, not ENOBUFS because of it.
Adapt the inaccurate comment above signal_pending().

net/rds: don't let the rdma_cm destroy an id RDS still owns on route failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/rds: don't let the rdma_cm destroy an id RDS still owns on route failure
rds_rdma_cm_event_handler_cmn() hands the return value of
rdma_resolve_route() straight back to the rdma_cm on
RDMA_CM_EVENT_ADDR_RESOLVED. A synchronous failure there - -ENOMEM
from the route work allocation, an SA query that cannot be set up, a
RoCE route with no usable device - makes addr_handler() destroy the
id the event was delivered on. That id is ic->i_cm_id, and nothing
clears the pointer: the connection sits in RDS_CONN_CONNECTING with a
freed id until its shutdown calls rdma_disconnect
netlink: reset skb headers before unicast and multicast filtering
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netlink: reset skb headers before unicast and multicast filtering
Socket filters can use SKF_NET_OFF and SKF_LL_OFF to read relative to
an skb's network and MAC headers. Netlink producers may reserve
headroom without resetting those headers, allowing a receiving socket's
filter to read data before the initialized message.
For example, IWPM HELLO replies are allocated with dev_alloc_skb(),
which reserves NET_SKB_PAD bytes. An unprivileged NETLINK_RDMA user can
attach a classic socket filter and disclose this headroom through the
length of the delivered reply. The resets in
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe: skip eviction of a BO with no resource
xe_evict_flags() switches on tbo->resource->mem_type to choose an
eviction placement. An xe BO can reach eviction with no ttm.resource,
e.g. an imported dma-buf BO whose resource was freed during teardown
while its attachment is still live: the exporter then invalidates it via
xe_dma_buf_move_notify() -> xe_bo_evict(), and the switch dereferences a
NULL resource and faults.
A BO with no resource has nothing placed or mapped, so there is nothing
to evict. Return an empty placement (num_placement = 0), mirroring the

scsi: target: iscsi: Fix race in discovery auth updates
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: iscsi: Fix race in discovery auth updates
Separate configfs opens can concurrently update the discovery AuthMethod
parameter. Both callers may free the same value in
iscsi_update_param_value(), causing a double-free.
Protect the lookup and replacement with the discovery TPG access lock,
as used by the other TPG configfs parameter updates.
ocfs2/dlm: Protect the recovery list during debugfs reads
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2/dlm: Protect the recovery list during debugfs reads
Recovery participant records must remain alive while debug_state_print()
walks reco.node_data and formats their fields. The formatter holds
dlm->spinlock, but the recovery participant list is protected by
dlm_reco_state_lock. In particular, dlm_destroy_recovery_area() detaches
the list under dlm_reco_state_lock and frees the detached records after
releasing it. A concurrent debugfs open can therefore read freed memory.
Protect the participant traversal and field reads in debug_state_print()
with dlm_reco_state_lock,
pipe: preserve existing fasync readers on writer setup failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pipe: preserve existing fasync readers on writer setup failure
F_SETFL and FIOASYNC decide whether to invoke ->fasync() before
pipe_fasync() takes pipe->mutex. Two enables of one O_RDWR FIFO can
therefore both enter the callback.
fasync_helper() allocates before checking for an existing entry. If the
first enable installs both entries, a second enable can update the
reader entry and then fail the allocation for the writer entry. The
error path removes the pre-existing reader entry, clearing FASYNC while
the writer entry remains registered. __fput() then skips ->fasync(), s
scsi: libsas: Fix SMP IO deadlock during HA resume
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: libsas: Fix SMP IO deadlock during HA resume
smp_execute_task_sg() calls pm_runtime_get_sync() on the host before
issuing an SMP command. When that command is itself issued from the HA
resume path, the get_sync() deadlocks: it waits for the ongoing resume
(the device is RPM_RESUMING), while the resume is blocked in
sas_drain_work() waiting for that same SMP IO to complete.
The deadlock needs an expander-attached SATA disk. During
sas_resume_ha() -> sas_drain_work(), DISCE_RESUME -> sas_resume_sata()
-> ata_sas_port_resume() requests ATA_EH_RESET, and the hard reset f
netlink: avoid hashing the network namespace pointer
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netlink: avoid hashing the network namespace pointer
The netlink rhashtable key includes a raw struct net pointer and a
user-controlled port ID. Both /proc/net/netlink and socket diagnostics
expose the table's bucket order. By binding and rebinding chosen
NETLINK_USERSOCK port IDs, an unprivileged reader can distinguish equal
buckets and recover the low bits of the Jenkins hash. Its 32-bit seed
and the limited set of kernel-image slides can then be searched offline
to recover the address of init_net.
Use the namespace's unique, non-address net_cookie in the comparison

net: bcmgenet: unshare the skb before writing the control block
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bcmgenet: unshare the skb before writing the control block
bcmgenet stores first_cb, last_cb and bytes_sent in the skb control
block and reads them back on completion to free the skb and credit BQL.
ether_setup() leaves IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING set, so the stack can resubmit
a shared skb that is still in the ring. The next transmit overwrites
last_cb, so the earlier slots complete without crediting their bytes
and BQL stalls the queue until the watchdog resets it.
Unshare the skb before writing the control block.
Reproduce with pktgen in clone_skb mode, which hands the dri
calipso: keep BIG TCP payload_len in calipso_skbuff_setattr()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
calipso: keep BIG TCP payload_len in calipso_skbuff_setattr()
calipso_skbuff_setattr() adjusts payload_len by the length of the
option it inserts or resizes:
payload = ntohs(ip6_hdr->payload_len);
ip6_hdr->payload_len = htons(payload + len_delta);
GRO can build BIG TCP packets larger than IPV6_MAXPLEN, and stores
payload_len == 0 for them; ipv6_payload_len() then falls back to
skb->len. For such a packet forwarded to a destination mapped to
CALIPSO, the code above writes len_delta (or 65536 + len_delta when
shrinking) into payload_len, and ipv6_payload_len() no longer
gpio: mxc: fix race between chained IRQ handler install and probe completion
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: mxc: fix race between chained IRQ handler install and probe completion
mxc_update_irq_chained_handler() is called before the IRQ domain, the
generic IRQ chip, and the port list entry are set up. If an interrupt
arrives in that window:
- mx3_gpio_irq_handler() calls generic_handle_domain_irq() with
port->domain still NULL.
- mx2_gpio_irq_handler() walks mxc_gpio_ports, but the port has not
been added to the list yet.
Additionally, if any of the subsequent probe steps

irq_domain_create_legacy(), or mxc_gpio_
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf: Fix perf_pmu_migrate_context() leaving events behind
__perf_pmu_remove() walks the group leaders of a CPU and PMU with
perf_event_groups_for_cpu_pmu(), removing each one as it goes.
perf_remove_from_context() takes the leader out of the groups rbtree,
after which rb_next() on that node returns NULL, prematurely ending the
walk. Other groups stay behind in the source context.
On CPU hotplug, they are then torn down with the dying CPU. They keep
running until teardown, while the PMU's interrupt and migrated events
are on a new CPU, which drivers rely on never happening
ASoC: SOF: ipc4-topology: Fix shift-out-of-bounds for aggregated ALH capture
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: SOF: ipc4-topology: Fix shift-out-of-bounds for aggregated ALH capture
When ch_count is smaller than blob->alh_cfg.device_count (e.g. a mono
capture stream, such as a SmartMic, aggregated across multiple SDW
links), step = ch_count / blob->alh_cfg.device_count truncates to 0.
The subsequent GENMASK(step - 1, 0) then underflows step - 1 (u32) to
UINT_MAX, causing GENMASK()'s internal shift to use an out-of-bounds
exponent:
UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in sound/soc/sof/ipc4-topology.c:2363:13
shift exponent 18446744069414584384 is too large for 64-bit type 'long unsi
autofs: ignore notification errors from a replaced pipe
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
autofs: ignore notification errors from a replaced pipe
autofs_notify_daemon() takes a reference to the current notification
pipe under wq_mutex, then drops the mutex before writing the request. The
write can block while the daemon enters catatonic mode and installs a
replacement pipe.
If the old pipe's reader is then closed, the delayed write returns -EPIPE
and the generic error path enters catatonic mode again. That transition
acts on the current superblock state, closes the replacement pipe, and
releases the new daemon generation's wait queues.
Only enter catatonic mod
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
unicode: free the map after a grace period
generic_ci_d_hash() and generic_ci_d_compare() read sb->s_encoding and
dereference the unicode map while a pathwalk in rcu mode holds nothing
but rcu_read_lock(). The filesystems that use them, ext4, f2fs and
tmpfs, drop the map with utf8_unload() from ->put_super(), which runs
when the last reference to the mount goes away. A lookup that is still
inside such a filesystem at that point reads a freed map.
With a pathwalk held up in utf8_casefold_hash() while the last reference
to a casefolded tmpfs goes away:

watch_queue: Fix note pool publication race in watch_queue_set_size()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
watch_queue: Fix note pool publication race in watch_queue_set_size()
There is a race between watch_queue_set_size() and post_one_notification().
watch_queue_set_size() publishes wqueue->notes, notes_bitmap, nr_pages and
nr_notes with plain stores, and post_one_notification() reads them with
plain loads under a different lock, so nothing orders the four stores
against the poster's loads: depending on the build, notes can be stored
last (gcc 14 on x86-64 does this). Since keyctl_watch_key() lets a watch
attach to a queue before it is sized, post_one_notification() can alrea
x86/kvm: Don't consume async #PF flags on a kernel #PF in NMI context
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/kvm: Don't consume async #PF flags on a kernel #PF in NMI context
An async #PF "page not present" event arrives through the #PF vector,
and its reason sits in the per-CPU apf_reason.flags until
__kvm_handle_async_pf() reads and clears it. If an NMI arrives after
the event is injected and before the #PF handler reads the flags, and
the NMI handler itself takes a #PF, that fault reads and clears the
flags belonging to the #PF it interrupted. It then finds interrupts
disabled in the NMI context it interrupted, and panics:
