ocfs2: fix use-after-free in ocfs2_fault() when VM_FAULT_RETRY
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: fix use-after-free in ocfs2_fault() when VM_FAULT_RETRY
filemap_fault() may drop the mmap_lock before returning VM_FAULT_RETRY,
as documented in mm/filemap.c:
"If our return value has VM_FAULT_RETRY set, it's because the mmap_lock
may be dropped before doing I/O or by lock_folio_maybe_drop_mmap()."
When this happens, a concurrent munmap() can call remove_vma() and free
the vm_area_struct via RCU. The saved 'vma' pointer in ocfs2_fault() then
becomes a dangling pointer, and the subsequent trace_ocfs2_fault() call
dereferences it -- a use-after-free.

KVM: x86: Use scratch field in MMIO fragment to hold small write values
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86: Use scratch field in MMIO fragment to hold small write values
When exiting to userspace to service an emulated MMIO write, copy the
to-be-written value to a scratch field in the MMIO fragment if the size
of the data payload is 8 bytes or less, i.e. can fit in a single chunk,
instead of pointing the fragment directly at the source value.
This fixes a class of use-after-free bugs that occur when the emulator
initiates a write using an on-stack, local variable as the source, the
write splits a page boundary, *and* both pages are MMIO pages. Because

media: em28xx: fix use-after-free in em28xx_v4l2_open()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: em28xx: fix use-after-free in em28xx_v4l2_open()
em28xx_v4l2_open() reads dev->v4l2 without holding dev->lock,
creating a race with em28xx_v4l2_init()'s error path and
em28xx_v4l2_fini(), both of which free the em28xx_v4l2 struct
and set dev->v4l2 to NULL under dev->lock.
This race leads to two issues:
- use-after-free in v4l2_fh_init() when accessing vdev->ctrl_handler,
since the video_device is embedded in the freed em28xx_v4l2 struct.
- NULL pointer dereference in em28xx_resolution_set() when accessing
v4l2->norm, since dev->v4l2 has been set to NULL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: 6fire: fix use-after-free on disconnect
In usb6fire_chip_abort(), the chip struct is allocated as the card's
private data (via snd_card_new with sizeof(struct sfire_chip)). When
snd_card_free_when_closed() is called and no file handles are open, the
card and embedded chip are freed synchronously. The subsequent
chip->card = NULL write then hits freed slab memory.

Fuzzying/stressing futexes triggered:
WARNING: kernel/futex/core.c:825 at wait_for_owner_exiting+0x7a/0x80, CPU#11: futex_lock_pi_s/524

and stores a refcounted task pointer in 'exiting'.
After wait_for_owner_exiting() consumes that reference, the local pointer
is never reset to nil. Upon a retry, if futex_lock_pi_atomic() returns a
different error, the bogus pointer is passed to wait_for_owner_exiting().

net: bonding: fix NULL deref in bond_debug_rlb_hash_show
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bonding: fix NULL deref in bond_debug_rlb_hash_show
rlb_clear_slave intentionally keeps RLB hash-table entries on
the rx_hashtbl_used_head list with slave set to NULL when no
replacement slave is available. However, bond_debug_rlb_hash_show
visites client_info->slave without checking if it's NULL.
Other used-list iterators in bond_alb.c already handle this NULL-slave
state safely:
- rlb_update_client returns early on !client_info->slave
- rlb_req_update_slave_clients, rlb_clear_slave, and rlb_rebalance
compare slave values before visiting
- lb_req_update_subnet_clien
can: raw: fix ro->uniq use-after-free in raw_rcv()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: raw: fix ro->uniq use-after-free in raw_rcv()
raw_release() unregisters raw CAN receive filters via can_rx_unregister(),
but receiver deletion is deferred with call_rcu(). This leaves a window
where raw_rcv() may still be running in an RCU read-side critical section
after raw_release() frees ro->uniq, leading to a use-after-free of the
percpu uniq storage.
Move free_percpu(ro->uniq) out of raw_release() and into a raw-specific
socket destructor. can_rx_unregister() takes an extra reference to the
socket and only drops it from the RCU callback, so freeing uniq from

driver core: platform: use generic driver_override infrastructure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
driver core: platform: use generic driver_override infrastructure
When a driver is probed through __driver_attach(), the bus' match()
callback is called without the device lock held, thus accessing the
driver_override field without a lock, which can cause a UAF.
Fix this by using the driver-core driver_override infrastructure taking
care of proper locking internally.
Note that calling match() from __driver_attach() without the device lock
held is intentional. [1]
HID: asus: avoid memory leak in asus_report_fixup()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: asus: avoid memory leak in asus_report_fixup()
The asus_report_fixup() function was returning a newly allocated
kmemdup()-allocated buffer, but never freeing it. Switch to
devm_kzalloc() to ensure the memory is managed and freed automatically
when the device is removed.
The caller of report_fixup() does not take ownership of the returned
pointer, but it is permitted to return a pointer whose lifetime is at
least that of the input buffer.
Also fix a harmless out-of-bounds read by copying only the original
descriptor size.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvme-pci: ensure we're polling a polled queue
A user can change the polled queue count at run time. There's a brief
window during a reset where a hipri task may try to poll that queue
before the block layer has updated the queue maps, which would race with
the now interrupt driven queue and may cause double completions.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

The magicmouse_report_fixup() function was returning a
newly kmemdup()-allocated buffer, but never freeing it.
The caller of report_fixup() does not take ownership of the returned
pointer, but it *is* permitted to return a sub-portion of the input
rdesc, whose lifetime is managed by the caller.
module: Fix kernel panic when a symbol st_shndx is out of bounds

btrfs: set BTRFS_ROOT_ORPHAN_CLEANUP during subvol create
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: set BTRFS_ROOT_ORPHAN_CLEANUP during subvol create
We have recently observed a number of subvolumes with broken dentries.
ls-ing the parent dir looks like:
drwxrwxrwt 1 root root 16 Jan 23 16:49 .
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 24 Jan 23 16:48 ..
d????????? ? ? ? ? ? broken_subvol
and similarly stat-ing the file fails.
In this state, deleting the subvol fails with ENOENT, but attempting to
create a new file or subvol over it errors out with EEXIST and even
aborts the fs. Which leaves us a bit stuck.

xfrm: prevent policy_hthresh.work from racing with netns teardown
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: prevent policy_hthresh.work from racing with netns teardown
A XFRM_MSG_NEWSPDINFO request can queue the per-net work item
policy_hthresh.work onto the system workqueue.
The queued callback, xfrm_hash_rebuild(), retrieves the enclosing
struct net via container_of(). If the net namespace is torn down
before that work runs, the associated struct net may already have
been freed, and xfrm_hash_rebuild() may then dereference stale memory.
xfrm_policy_fini() already flushes policy_hash_work during teardown,
but it does not synchronize policy_hthresh.work.

af_key: validate families in pfkey_send_migrate()
syzbot was able to trigger a crash in skb_put() [1]
Issue is that pfkey_send_migrate() does not check old/new families,

thus possibly overfilling the skb.
Validate families early, do not wait set_ipsecrequest().

Bluetooth: L2CAP: Validate PDU length before reading SDU length in l2cap_ecred_data_rcv()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: L2CAP: Validate PDU length before reading SDU length in l2cap_ecred_data_rcv()
l2cap_ecred_data_rcv() reads the SDU length field from skb->data using
get_unaligned_le16() without first verifying that skb contains at least
L2CAP_SDULEN_SIZE (2) bytes. When skb->len is less than 2, this reads
past the valid data in the skb.
The ERTM reassembly path correctly calls pskb_may_pull() before reading
the SDU length (l2cap_reassemble_sdu, L2CAP_SAR_START case). Apply the
same validation to the Enhanced Credit Based Flow Control data path.
