selinux: avoid sk_socket dereference in selinux_sctp_bind_connect()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
selinux: avoid sk_socket dereference in selinux_sctp_bind_connect()
selinux_sctp_bind_connect() dereferences sk->sk_socket to pass a
struct socket * to selinux_socket_bind() and
selinux_socket_connect_helper(). However, when the hook is invoked
from the ASCONF softirq path (sctp_process_asconf), there is no file
reference guaranteeing that sk->sk_socket is non-NULL. The setsockopt
callers (bindx, connectx, set_primary, sendmsg connect) hold a file
reference and are not affected.
Both selinux_socket_bind() and selinux_socket_connect_helper()
immediately resolve sock->sk,
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
leds: uleds: Fix potential buffer overread
The name string supplied by userspace is not guaranteed to be
null-terminated, so using strchr() on it might result in a buffer
overread. The same thing will happen when said string is used by
the LED class device.
Fix this by using strnchr() instead and explicitly check that
the name string is properly null-terminated.
mfd: sm501: Fix reference leak on failed device registration
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mfd: sm501: Fix reference leak on failed device registration
When platform_device_register() fails in sm501_register_device(), the
embedded struct device in pdev has already been initialized by
device_initialize(), but the failure path only reports the error and
returns without dropping the device reference for the current platform
device:
sm501_register_device()
-> platform_device_register(pdev)
-> device_initialize(&pdev->dev)
-> setup_pdev_dma_masks(pdev)
-> platform_device_add(pdev)
This leads to a reference leak when platform_device_registe
x86/boot: Validate console=uart8250 baud rate to fix early boot hang
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/boot: Validate console=uart8250 baud rate to fix early boot hang
When the baud rate is empty, 0, invalid, or overflows to 0 when stored
as an int, the system will hang during early boot because of a division
by zero in early_serial_init().
Fall back to DEFAULT_BAUD when the resulting baud rate is 0 to prevent
an early system hang.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf/x86/amd/brs: Fix kernel address leakage
A user-only branch stack can contain branches that originate from
the kernel. As a result, kernel addresses are exposed to user space
even when PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_USER is requested. On AMD processors
supporting X86_FEATURE_BRS (Zen 3 only), perf can still report entries
such as SYSRET/interrupt returns for which the branch-from addresses
are in the kernel.
E.g.
$ perf record -j any,u -c 4000 -e branch-brs -o - -- \
perf bench syscall basic --loop 1000 | \
perf script -i - -F brstack|tr ' ' '\n'| \
grep
s390/perf_cpum_cf: Add missing array_index_nospec() to __hw_perf_event_init()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/perf_cpum_cf: Add missing array_index_nospec() to __hw_perf_event_init()
ev variable is userspace controlled via event->attr.config and used
as an array index after bounds checking, but without speculation
barriers.
Add the missing array_index_nospec() call to prevent speculative
execution.
batman-adv: retrieve ethhdr after potential skb realloc on RX
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: retrieve ethhdr after potential skb realloc on RX
pskb_may_pull() in batadv_interface_rx() could reallocate the buffer behind
the skb. Variables which were pointing to the old buffer need to be
reassigned to avoid an use-after-free.
This was done correctly for the VLAN header but missed for the ethernet
header which is later used for the TT and AP isolation handling.
batman-adv: access unicast_ttvn skb->data only after skb realloc
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: access unicast_ttvn skb->data only after skb realloc
The pskb_may_pull() called by batadv_get_vid() could reallocate the buffer
behind the skb. Variables which were pointing to the old buffer need to be
reassigned to avoid an use-after-free.
This was done correctly for the ethernet header but missed for the
unicast_packet pointer.
batman-adv: bla: reacquire gw address after skb realloc
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: bla: reacquire gw address after skb realloc
The pskb_may_pull() called by batadv_bla_is_backbone_gw() could reallocate
the buffer behind the skb. Variables which were pointing to the old buffer
need to be reassigned to avoid an use-after-free.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: ensure minimal ethernet header on TX
As documented in commit 8bd67ebb50c0 ("net: bridge: xmit: make sure we have
at least eth header len bytes"), it is possible by for a local user with
eBPF TC hook access to attach a tc filter which truncates the packet and
redirects to an batadv interface. But the code assumes that at least
ETH_HLEN bytes are available and thus might read outside of the available
buffer.
The batadv_interface_tx() must therefore always check itself if enough data
is available for the ethernet header and don't rely on min_header_len.
batman-adv: tt: avoid request storms during pending request
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: tt: avoid request storms during pending request
batadv_send_tt_request() allocates a tt_req_node when none exists for the
destination originator node. This should prevent that a multiple TT
requests are send at the same time to an originator.
But if allocation of the send buffer failed, this request must be cleaned
up again. But indicator for such a failure is "ret == false". But the
actual implementation is checking for "ret == true".
The check must be inverted to not loose the information about the TT
request directly after it was attempted to be sent out. T
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: frag: free unfragmentable packet
The caller of batadv_frag_send_packet() assume that the skb provided to the
function are always consumed. But the pre-check for an empty payload or the
zero fragment size returned an error without any further actions.
A failed pre-check must use the same error handling code as the rest of the
function.
batman-adv: clean untagged VLAN on netdev registration failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: clean untagged VLAN on netdev registration failure
When an mesh interface is registered, it creates an untagged struct
batadv_meshif_vlan on top of it via the NETDEV_REGISTER notifier. But in
this process, another receiver of this notification can veto the
registration. The netdev registration will be aborted because of this veto.
The register_netdevice() call will try to clean up the net_device using
unregister_netdevice_queue() - which only uses the .priv_destructor to
free private resources. In this situation, .dellink will not be called.
The cleanup of the
batman-adv: frag: fix primary_if leak on failed linearization
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: frag: fix primary_if leak on failed linearization
If the skb has a frag_list, it must be linearized before it can be split
using skb_split(). But when this step failed, it must not only free the skb
but also take care of the reference to the already found primary_if.
batman-adv: mcast: avoid OOB read of num_dests header
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: mcast: avoid OOB read of num_dests header
Before the access to struct batadv_tvlv_mcast_tracker's num_dests, it is
attempted to check whether enough space is actually in the network header.
But instead of using offsetofend() to check for the whole size (2) which
must be accessible, offsetof() of is called. The latter is always returning
0. The comparison with the network header length will always return that
enough data is available - even when only 1 or 0 bytes are accessible.
Instead of using offsetofend(), use the more common check for the whole
header.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: tt: prevent TVLV OOB check overflow
A TT unicast TVLV contains the number of VLANs stored in it. This number is
an u16 and gets multiplied by the size of the struct
batadv_tvlv_tt_vlan_data (8 bytes). The size can therefore overflow the u16
used to store the tt_vlan_len. All additional safety checks to prevent
out-of-bounds access of the TVLV buffer are invalid due to this overflow.
Using size_t prevents this overflow and ensures that the safety checks
compare against the actual buffer requirements.
jbd2: fix integer underflow in jbd2_journal_initialize_fast_commit()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
jbd2: fix integer underflow in jbd2_journal_initialize_fast_commit()
jbd2_journal_initialize_fast_commit() validates journal capacity by
checking (journal->j_last - num_fc_blks < JBD2_MIN_JOURNAL_BLOCKS).
Both j_last and num_fc_blks are unsigned, so when num_fc_blks exceeds
j_last the subtraction wraps to a large value, bypassing the bounds
check.
The resulting underflow corrupts j_last, j_fc_first, and j_free,
leading to journal abort.
Fix by checking num_fc_blks against j_last before the subtraction,
returning -EFSCORRUPTED.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvdimm/btt: Free arenas on btt_init() error paths
The arenas allocated by discover_arenas() or create_arenas() are not
freed on some error paths in btt_init(). This leaks memory when BTT
initialization fails.
Call free_arenas() from the affected error paths to release the
allocations.

nvdimm/btt: Free arena sub-allocations on discover_arenas() error path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvdimm/btt: Free arena sub-allocations on discover_arenas() error path
Memory allocated by btt_freelist_init(), btt_rtt_init(), and
btt_maplocks_init() is not freed on some discover_arenas() error
paths. This leaks memory when arena discovery fails.
Add the missing kfree() calls to release the allocations before
returning an error.

sunrpc: pin svc_xprt across the asynchronous TLS handshake callback
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sunrpc: pin svc_xprt across the asynchronous TLS handshake callback
svc_tcp_handshake() stores the raw svc_xprt pointer in
tls_handshake_args.ta_data and submits the request through
tls_server_hello_x509(). The handshake core takes only
sock_hold(req->hr_sk); nothing references the embedding struct
svc_sock that svc_tcp_handshake_done() reaches via container_of().
Two close races leave the in-flight callback writing through a freed
svc_sock. svc_sock_free() calls tls_handshake_cancel() and discards
its return value: a false return means handshake_complete() has
already set
