i40e: Fix NULL ptr dereference on VSI filter sync
Remove the reason of null pointer dereference in sync VSI filters.
Added new I40E_VSI_RELEASING flag to signalize deleting and releasing
of VSI resources to sync this thread with sync filters subtask.
Without this patch it is possible to start update the VSI filter list
after VSI is removed, that's causing a kernel oops.
usb: musb: tusb6010: check return value after calling platform_get_resource()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: musb: tusb6010: check return value after calling platform_get_resource()
It will cause null-ptr-deref if platform_get_resource() returns NULL,
we need check the return value.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86, relocs: Ignore relocations in .notes section
When building with CONFIG_XEN_PV=y, .text symbols are emitted into
the .notes section so that Xen can find the "startup_xen" entry point.
This information is used prior to booting the kernel, so relocations
are not useful. In fact, performing relocations against the .notes
section means that the KASLR base is exposed since /sys/kernel/notes
is world-readable.
To avoid leaking the KASLR base without breaking unprivileged tools that
are expecting to read /sys/kernel/notes, skip performing relocations in
the .notes section. Th
vfio/pci: Disable auto-enable of exclusive INTx IRQ
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vfio/pci: Disable auto-enable of exclusive INTx IRQ
Currently for devices requiring masking at the irqchip for INTx, ie.
devices without DisINTx support, the IRQ is enabled in request_irq()
and subsequently disabled as necessary to align with the masked status
flag. This presents a window where the interrupt could fire between
these events, resulting in the IRQ incrementing the disable depth twice.
This would be unrecoverable for a user since the masked flag prevents
nested enables through vfio.
Instead, invert the logic using IRQF_NO_AUTOEN such that exclusive INTx
is ne
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vfio/platform: Create persistent IRQ handlers
The vfio-platform SET_IRQS ioctl currently allows loopback triggering of
an interrupt before a signaling eventfd has been configured by the user,
which thereby allows a NULL pointer dereference.
Rather than register the IRQ relative to a valid trigger, register all
IRQs in a disabled state in the device open path. This allows mask
operations on the IRQ to nest within the overall enable state governed
by a valid eventfd signal. This decouples @masked, protected by the
@locked spinlock from @trigger, protected via the @igate mu
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vfio/pci: Create persistent INTx handler
A vulnerability exists where the eventfd for INTx signaling can be
deconfigured, which unregisters the IRQ handler but still allows
eventfds to be signaled with a NULL context through the SET_IRQS ioctl
or through unmask irqfd if the device interrupt is pending.
Ideally this could be solved with some additional locking; the igate
mutex serializes the ioctl and config space accesses, and the interrupt
handler is unregistered relative to the trigger, but the irqfd path
runs asynchronous to those. The igate mutex cannot be acquired fr
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vfio/pci: Lock external INTx masking ops
Mask operations through config space changes to DisINTx may race INTx
configuration changes via ioctl. Create wrappers that add locking for
paths outside of the core interrupt code.
In particular, irq_type is updated holding igate, therefore testing
is_intx() requires holding igate. For example clearing DisINTx from
config space can otherwise race changes of the interrupt configuration.
This aligns interfaces which may trigger the INTx eventfd into two
camps, one side serialized by igate and the other only enabled while
INTx is c
netlink: Fix kernel-infoleak-after-free in __skb_datagram_iter
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netlink: Fix kernel-infoleak-after-free in __skb_datagram_iter
syzbot reported the following uninit-value access issue [1]:
netlink_to_full_skb() creates a new `skb` and puts the `skb->data`
passed as a 1st arg of netlink_to_full_skb() onto new `skb`. The data
size is specified as `len` and passed to skb_put_data(). This `len`
is based on `skb->end` that is not data offset but buffer offset. The
`skb->end` contains data and tailroom. Since the tailroom is not
initialized when the new `skb` created, KMSAN detects uninitialized
memory area when copying the data.

Bluetooth: Avoid potential use-after-free in hci_error_reset
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: Avoid potential use-after-free in hci_error_reset
While handling the HCI_EV_HARDWARE_ERROR event, if the underlying
BT controller is not responding, the GPIO reset mechanism would
free the hci_dev and lead to a use-after-free in hci_error_reset.

tls: fix use-after-free on failed backlog decryption
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tls: fix use-after-free on failed backlog decryption
When the decrypt request goes to the backlog and crypto_aead_decrypt
returns -EBUSY, tls_do_decryption will wait until all async
decryptions have completed. If one of them fails, tls_do_decryption
will return -EBADMSG and tls_decrypt_sg jumps to the error path,
releasing all the pages. But the pages have been passed to the async
callback, and have already been released by tls_decrypt_done.
The only true async case is when crypto_aead_decrypt returns
-EINPROGRESS. With -EBUSY, we already waited so we can tell

btrfs: dev-replace: properly validate device names
There's a syzbot report that device name buffers passed to device
replace are not properly checked for string termination which could lead
to a read out of bounds in getname_kernel().

For devid as the source initialize the buffer to empty string in case
something tries to read it later.
This was originally analyzed and fixed in a different way by Edward Adam
Davis (see links).
dmaengine: fsl-qdma: fix SoC may hang on 16 byte unaligned read
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: fsl-qdma: fix SoC may hang on 16 byte unaligned read
There is chip (ls1028a) errata:
The SoC may hang on 16 byte unaligned read transactions by QDMA.
Unaligned read transactions initiated by QDMA may stall in the NOC
(Network On-Chip), causing a deadlock condition. Stalled transactions will
trigger completion timeouts in PCIe controller.
Workaround:
Enable prefetch by setting the source descriptor prefetchable bit
( SD[PF] = 1 ).
Implement this workaround.

wifi: mac80211: fix race condition on enabling fast-xmit
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: fix race condition on enabling fast-xmit
fast-xmit must only be enabled after the sta has been uploaded to the driver,
otherwise it could end up passing the not-yet-uploaded sta via drv_tx calls
to the driver, leading to potential crashes because of uninitialized drv_priv
data.
Add a missing sta->uploaded check and re-check fast xmit after inserting a sta.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: savage: Error out if pixclock equals zero
The userspace program could pass any values to the driver through
ioctl() interface. If the driver doesn't check the value of pixclock,
it may cause divide-by-zero error.
Although pixclock is checked in savagefb_decode_var(), but it is not
checked properly in savagefb_probe(). Fix this by checking whether
pixclock is zero in the function savagefb_check_var() before
info->var.pixclock is used as the divisor.
This is similar to CVE-2022-3061 in i740fb which was fixed by
commit 15cf0b8.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: sis: Error out if pixclock equals zero
The userspace program could pass any values to the driver through
ioctl() interface. If the driver doesn't check the value of pixclock,
it may cause divide-by-zero error.
In sisfb_check_var(), var->pixclock is used as a divisor to caculate
drate before it is checked against zero. Fix this by checking it
at the beginning.
This is similar to CVE-2022-3061 in i740fb which was fixed by
commit 15cf0b8.
