ceph: avoid fs reclaim while using current->journal_info
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ceph: avoid fs reclaim while using current->journal_info
handle_reply() stores a `ceph_mds_request` pointer in
`current->journal_info` while filling the inode and dentry cache from
an MDS reply.
An allocation in this section can enter direct reclaim and prune
dentries from another filesystem. If this dirties an ext4 inode, ext4
starts a JBD2 transaction. JBD2 interprets the Ceph request in
`current->journal_info` as a journal handle and dereferences the
request's `r_tid` as `h_transaction`, causing a kernel crash, e.g.:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual
ceph: fix hanging __ceph_get_caps() with stale mds_wanted
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ceph: fix hanging __ceph_get_caps() with stale mds_wanted
A reader can hang forever in __ceph_get_caps() when the client no
longer holds `FILE_RD`, but local cap state still says that the
capability is already wanted (via `mds_wanted`).
One way to trigger this is through MDS cap revocation. If another
client performs a conflicting operation, the MDS can revoke `FILE_RD`
from the reader; the next read then has to reacquire `FILE_RD`. If
the cap update that should request `FILE_RD` never reaches the MDS
after `cap->mds_wanted` was raised, the reader is left holding only
no
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: tas2562: Validate values for volume writes
tas2562_volume_control_put() does not do any validation of the control
value written by userspace, it uses it to look up a value in a fixed
size array which can easily be overflowed and then writes whatever value
it gets back to the device. Add validation that we are loading a value
we have in the array.

af_unix: Unlink scc_entry in unix_del_edge().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
af_unix: Unlink scc_entry in unix_del_edge().
Kyle Zeng reported that GC could free a dead SCC partially.
The scenario is as follows:
1) Create two SCCs:
X -. A <-> B
^--'
2) Run the following concurrently:
2-1) send() sk-B to sk-B from sk-X
2-2) close() both A and B
At 2-1), there is a small window where unix_add_edges()
publishes a new edge (B <-> B) to GC but its skb is not queued
by skb_queue_tail().
If 2-2) completes before skb_queue_tail() and GC is triggered,
it judges A <-> B as dead, but B is not freed because GC cannot

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: core: pair EH runtime PM get and put
shost->eh_noresume is currently consulted twice in one error handling
iteration: once before scsi_autopm_get_host() and once again before
scsi_autopm_put_host().
That is racy when a PM-triggered error path flips shost->eh_noresume
while the SCSI EH thread is still running.
The problem flow looks like this:
PM path
ufshcd_set_dev_pwr_mode()
shost->eh_noresume = 1
ufshcd_execute_start_stop <-- trigger EH
...
shost->eh_noresume = 0

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: validate cookie AUTH state before use
When cookie authentication is disabled, COOKIE_ECHO restores fixed-size
AUTH fields directly from peer-controlled cookie bytes. A forged RANDOM
length, HMAC list, or CHUNKS list can then reach association consumers
with lengths or identifiers that were never validated against the local
backing arrays.
A forged RANDOM length can cause out-of-bounds reads during key-vector
construction. A forged HMAC identifier also caused a 32-byte write past
a zero-length AUTH chunk, providing a primitive for a local privilege
escalation chain.
netfilter: ipset: fix refcount race between list:set GC and swap
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ipset: fix refcount race between list:set GC and swap
__ip_set_put_byindex() resolved the index to a set pointer under RCU,
then took ip_set_ref_lock in __ip_set_put() to decrement set->ref.
ip_set_swap() holds that same lock while swapping both the ip_set_list
slots and the two sets' ref counters, so it can interleave between the
dereference and the lock acquisition, leaving the caller to decrement a
set whose reference already moved to the other index and hit
BUG_ON(set->ref == 0). list_set_gc() reaches this from timer softirq,
which the nfnl mutex does not ser
ipvs: revalidate ihl to prevent out-of-bounds access
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipvs: revalidate ihl to prevent out-of-bounds access
While the outer IP header is already pulled into the skb head,
we must be careful and revalidate the embedded headers after
reading them from the skb frags to prevent out-of-bounds
access.
One such place reported by Sashiko is ip_vs_nat_icmp() where
local process can change the ihl field and after
skb_ensure_writable() we can see larger value which is a
problem for the ip_send_check(cih) calls.
Add check to drop the packet if the ihl field is changed.
netfilter: flowtable: publish GC-visible tuple last
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: flowtable: publish GC-visible tuple last
nf_flow_table_iterate() only treats original-direction tuple nodes as
owning entries. Publishing the original node first lets GC observe and
free a flow while flow_offload_add() is still inserting the reply node.
Publish the reply node first and the original node last so GC never
sees a partially installed flow.
KASAN can trigger slab-use-after-free read and write reports in the
flowtable/rhashtable path (rht_deferred_worker, jhash, flow_offload_del,
flow_offload_lookup, etc.).
ipvlan: inherit needed_headroom and needed_tailroom from phy_dev
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipvlan: inherit needed_headroom and needed_tailroom from phy_dev
ipvlan devices inherit hard_header_len from phy_dev during ipvlan_init(),
but leave needed_headroom and needed_tailroom set to 0.
When the underlying phy_dev (or stacked lower device) requires extra headroom
or tailroom for headers/trailers (e.g. macsec, ipsec, wireguard, tunnels, or
veth with rx headroom), upper layers calculating packet headroom and tailroom
fail to reserve sufficient space.
This can result in reallocation overhead, skb headroom underflows, or KASAN
slab-use-after-free crashes when dev_har
macvlan: inherit needed_headroom and needed_tailroom from lowerdev
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
macvlan: inherit needed_headroom and needed_tailroom from lowerdev
macvlan devices inherit hard_header_len from lowerdev during macvlan_init(),
but leave needed_headroom and needed_tailroom set to 0.
When the underlying lowerdev requires extra headroom or tailroom for
headers/trailers (e.g. macsec, ipsec, wireguard, tunnels, or veth with rx
headroom), upper layers calculating packet headroom and tailroom fail to
reserve sufficient space.
This can result in reallocation overhead, skb headroom underflows, or KASAN

net/sched: act_api: fix TOCTOU NULL deref on a->goto_chain
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: act_api: fix TOCTOU NULL deref on a->goto_chain
tcf_action_exec() handles TC_ACT_GOTO_CHAIN by first checking
rcu_access_pointer(a->goto_chain) and then calling
tcf_action_goto_chain_exec(), which does a second, independent
rcu_dereference_bh(a->goto_chain) read and immediately dereferences
chain->filter_chain. A concurrent tcf_action_set_ctrlact() (e.g. the gact
replace path) can clear a->goto_chain between the two reads, so the second
read returns NULL and tcf_action_goto_chain_exec() dereferences NULL.
Fix the race by doing a single rcu_dereference_bh() read
net/sched: cls_u32: skip hash tables in u32_bind_class()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: cls_u32: skip hash tables in u32_bind_class()
u32_walk() enumerates both struct tc_u_hnode and struct tc_u_knode
through the walker callback. u32_bind_class() unconditionally casts the
passed fh to tc_u_knode and accesses &n->res, so when fh is actually a
tc_u_hnode, which has no tcf_result member, this results in a
slab-out-of-bounds read of res->classid in tc_cls_bind_class().
The issue can be reproduced with the following commands:
tc qdisc add dev lo root handle 1: hfsc
tc class add dev lo parent 1: classid 1:1 hfsc sc rate 1000kbit

net: ethernet: ti: am65-cpsw-nuss: Fix port_id extraction from SRC TAG
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ethernet: ti: am65-cpsw-nuss: Fix port_id extraction from SRC TAG
On the packet reception path, the ID of the MAC Port on which the packet
was received, is embedded in the RX DMA Descriptor's metadata. The ID is
extracted using the helper function cppi5_desc_get_tags_ids() which fills
in the 16-bit Source Tag into the 'port_id' variable. However, it is only
the lower 8-bits of the 16-bit Source Tag that represent the MAC Port ID,
while the upper 8-bits are Hardware-Reserved and carry an arbitrary value.
With the existing logic, sporadic kernel crash is observed due to
net/sched: cls_bpf: reject dev-bound programs bound to a different device
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: cls_bpf: reject dev-bound programs bound to a different device
cls_bpf_prog_from_efd() obtained a SCHED_CLS program via
bpf_prog_get_type_dev() but never verified that a device-bound (offloaded)
program's bound netdev matches the TC netdev the classifier is being
attached to. This let a program loaded with prog_ifindex for device A be
attached via cls_bpf + skip_sw to device B; deleting device A then
destroyed the program's offload state while it was still attached to
device B, triggering a netdevsim WARN (panic with panic_on_warn=1).

l2tp: fix tunnel and session refcount leak on seq_file release
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
l2tp: fix tunnel and session refcount leak on seq_file release
In pppol2tp_proc_open() and l2tp_dfs_seq_open(), iteration state
(pd->tunnel and pd->session) is kept in seq_file private data to allow
iteration across multiple read() system calls.
However, if userspace closes /proc/net/pppol2tp or /sys/kernel/debug/l2tp/tunnels
before reading to end-of-file (EOF), any tunnel or session reference stored in
pd->tunnel / pd->session is left un-dropped when seq_file private data is freed.
Fix this by dropping any remaining pd->tunnel and pd->session references in
pppol2tp_proc_
firewire: ohci: fix NULL pointer dereference in ar_context_release
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firewire: ohci: fix NULL pointer dereference in ar_context_release
During the error handling path of the driver's probe function, a NULL
pointer dereference can occur in ar_context_release().
When pci_probe() fails early (e.g., if pcim_enable_device() or MMIO mapping
fails), the devres cleanup mechanism invokes release_ohci(). This function
unconditionally calls ar_context_release() to clean up the asynchronous
receive contexts. However, if ar_context_init() was not yet called,
ctx->ohci remains NULL (as the fw_ohci structure is zero-initialized by
devres_alloc()).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: pca953x: fix pca953x_irq_bus_sync_unlock regmap lock
Locking is disabled in the regmap config as this driver uses its own
lock. This means that all calls to regmap functions (read or write) must
hold the i2c_lock. The function pca953x_irq_bus_sync_unlock() did not do
this, and it was therefore possible that multiple threads could cause an
incorrect register to be read/written.
A previous patch partly fixed this, but only protected the write to the
interrupt mask register, and not the read from the direction register.
NFS: Pin the 'struct nfs_server' during a FREE_STATEID call
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFS: Pin the 'struct nfs_server' during a FREE_STATEID call
Dan Aloni reports that he was able to hit a use-after-free bug if a
FREE_STATEID operation gets delayed for whatever reason. Fix this by
bumping the refcount of the 'struct nfs_server' object for the duration
of the FREE_STATEID so it doesn't get cleaned up from underneath us
while operations are still in flight.
soc: aspeed: lpc-snoop: Fix usercopy overflow in snoop_file_read
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
soc: aspeed: lpc-snoop: Fix usercopy overflow in snoop_file_read
put_fifo_with_discard() acts as both producer and consumer on the kfifo:
it calls kfifo_skip() (advances out) and kfifo_put() (advances in) from
the IRQ handler without synchronizing with snoop_file_read(), which also
consumes via kfifo_to_user(). On SMP systems this concurrent access can
leave (in - out) larger than the ring buffer, so __kfifo_to_user()'s clamp
to (in - out) is ineffective and kfifo_copy_to_user() can attempt a
copy_to_user() past the kmalloc-2k backing store:
