fs/dax: check zero or empty entry before converting xarray entry
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/dax: check zero or empty entry before converting xarray entry
Calling dax_to_folio() with empty entry causes kernel panic below when
booting a VM with DAX enabled storage.
This patch checks empty entry before calling dax_to_folio() on
dax_associate_entry(), dax_disassociate_entry(), and dax_busy_page().
Commit 98c183a4fccf ("fs/dax: don't disassociate zero page entries") added
guards in the associate and disassociate paths, but the guards still come
after dax_to_folio(), and dax_busy_page() still has the same problem.

posix-cpu-timers: Prevent freeing a timer which is queued on the expiry list
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
posix-cpu-timers: Prevent freeing a timer which is queued on the expiry list
Kijo analyzed another race in the POSIX CPU timer code:
Commit bf635681c906 converted cpu_timer::firing from a tristate value to a
boolean. This lost the distinction between "not owned by the firing list"
and "still owned, but delivery was canceled". The resulting race is:
expiry handler timer_settime() timer_delete()

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
swiotlb: use the adjusted address for the highmem page lookup
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
swiotlb: use the adjusted address for the highmem page lookup
swiotlb_bounce() reads the page frame number from the slot's recorded
orig_addr, then advances orig_addr by tlb_offset to reach the address
the caller asked about. The highmem branch mixes the two: the offset
within the page comes from the adjusted address, the page from the value
before it.
Once the adjustment crosses a page boundary the pair no longer describes
one location, and the whole copy lands one page below the intended one
for a positive tlb_offset, one above for a negative one. DMA_FROM_DEVICE

RDMA/ucma: Serialize join and leave on copy_to_user failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/ucma: Serialize join and leave on copy_to_user failure
rdma_join_multicast() queues RoCE work that later reads the ucma_multicast
through event->param.ud.private_data, then list_add()s the CMA multicast
at the head of id_priv->mc_list. rdma_leave_multicast() matches only by
sockaddr and destroys the first hit.
ucma_process_join() used to drop ctx->mutex after a successful join and
retake it only if copy_to_user() failed. Two concurrent JOIN_MCAST calls
with the same address can therefore insert a second CMA entry before the
first thread's leave. leave then cancels the
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.
nfsd: fix handling of NFSEXP_PNFS in the netlink codepath
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix handling of NFSEXP_PNFS in the netlink codepath
The rework of how block layouts were checked moved the check for
NFSEXP_PNFS out of nfsd4_setup_layout_type() and into the callers. That
patch didn't account for the new call in nfsd4_setup_layout_type().
arm64: hibernate: pass HVC_SET_VECTORS args to the resume hvc
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: hibernate: pass HVC_SET_VECTORS args to the resume hvc
swsusp_arch_suspend_exit() reinstalls the restored kernel's hyp stub
vectors with an hvc, but never passes the arguments. x0 is not set to
HVC_SET_VECTORS and x1 is not set to the vector address, so the stub
dispatch falls through and returns without writing vbar_el2. EL2 is
left pointing at the trans_pgd copy of the vectors, a page that
swsusp_free() releases right after resume.
Set the arguments up the same way __hyp_set_vectors() does.
Without this fix, Vladimir was able to trigger a hang when resuming from
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:
Bluetooth: hci_codec: validate vendor codec count length
The Read Local Supported Codecs parsers consume the variable-sized
standard codec array before parsing the vendor codec count. Although the
initial reply-size check includes a vendor count byte in the fixed layout,
it does not guarantee that the byte remains after the standard codec array.
If a controller reply ends immediately after that array, calculating the
vendor codec array size reads vnd_codecs->num beyond the skb data. Use
skb_pull_data() to validate and consume each codec header before using its
count in b
Bluetooth: hci_sync: Serialize local codec list cleanup
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_sync: Serialize local codec list cleanup
hci_dev_close_sync() clears hdev->local_codecs after releasing hdev->lock.
Codec list additions and both traversals in sco_sock_getsockopt() use that
lock, but the close path does not. A close and BT_CODEC query can therefore
interleave as follows:
hci_dev_close_sync() sco_sock_getsockopt()
hci_dev_lock()
fetch codec entry
hci_codec_list_clear()
kfree(entry)

The reader then accesses an entry
btrfs: take commit root semaphore when iterating in mark_block_group_to_copy()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: take commit root semaphore when iterating in mark_block_group_to_copy()
mark_block_group_to_copy() iterates over the commit root with
skip_locking=true. A concurrent transaction commit can swap and free
the commit root during iteration, causing use-after-free when
accessing extent buffers.
Fix it by using path->need_commit_sem to protect the commit root search.
btrfs: clear free space tree creation state on rebuild failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: clear free space tree creation state on rebuild failure
btrfs_rebuild_free_space_tree() sets BTRFS_FS_CREATING_FREE_SPACE_TREE
before rebuilding the free space tree. Several error paths return
without clearing this flag.
The transaction restart failure path can leave the flag set on a live
filesystem, causing delayed reference processing to be skipped. Clear it
on all free space tree rebuild failure paths. Keep
BTRFS_FS_FREE_SPACE_TREE_UNTRUSTED set, since a failed rebuild leaves
the free space tree untrusted. Callers must fall back to extent-tree
caching.
dma-buf/dma-fence: fix checking signaling bit for timeline and driver name v3
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dma-buf/dma-fence: fix checking signaling bit for timeline and driver name v3
The patch "dma-buf: dma-fence: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference"
changed the check to test for the ops pointer instead of the signaled
bit to avoid a potential NULL dereference when the ops pointer has been
cleared.
The problem is now that the ops pointer is cleared only when neither the
release nor the wait callback is implemented and this isn't true for a lot
of dma_fence implementations yet. So those implementations lost the RCU
protection after signaling of the returned string resulting
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dma-buf: Fix silent overflow for phys vec to sgt
In case MMIO size is bigger than 4G and peer2peer DMA goes
through host bridge, we trigger a code path that assigns the
total linked IOVA (which is greater than 4G) to mapped_len.
Previously, `mapped_len` was declared as 32-bit `unsigned int`.
When accumulating `size_t` lengths, this leads to a silent wrap-around.
This truncation causes truncated lengths to be passed to functions
like `fill_sg_entry()`.
Fix this by changing `mapped_len` to `size_t` (64-bit). While
at it, fix similar potential overflow issues in `calc_sg_nen
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
