usb: gadget: f_midi: initialize work in f_midi_alloc()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_midi: initialize work in f_midi_alloc()
f_midi_alloc initializes free_ref to 1 and it can only be incremented
when a sound card is registered via f_midi_register_card().
f_midi_register_card() is only called in f_midi_bind() which actually
performs INIT_WORK. If f_midi_bind() is never run, work is not
initialized and the if condition in f_midi_free becomes true,
this results in a warning later in __flush_work as work->func = 0.
Fix this by moving INIT_WORK from f_midi_bind() to f_midi_alloc().
USB: gadget: fix NULL pointer dereference in gadget_dev_ioctl()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: gadget: fix NULL pointer dereference in gadget_dev_ioctl()
gadget_dev_ioctl() reads dev->gadget before acquiring dev->lock, but
dev->state is checked after acquiring the lock. Therefore a concurrent
bind can change the device state between these operations, which can
leave ioctl with a stale NULL gadget pointer and causing a NULL pointer
dereference at gadget->ops->ioctl.
Read dev->gadget while holding dev->lock so that the gadget pointer
and device state are sampled consistently.
usb: gadget: fix null pointer dereference in usb_put_function_instance()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: fix null pointer dereference in usb_put_function_instance()
usb_put_function_instance() attempts to dereference fd inside fi struct
to get mod in uvc_alloc_inst() error path. However, fd is not allocated
until later in try_get_usb_function_instance() after allocating fi in
uvc_alloc_inst() and thus guranteed to be null in error path. Fix this
by adding a null check for fi->fd that returns if fd is null.
staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB read / stack overflow in rtw_get_wps_attr()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB read / stack overflow in rtw_get_wps_attr()
rtw_get_wps_attr() walks WPS attributes inside a WPS IE taken from
a wireless management frame. For each candidate attribute it only
checks that the fixed 4-byte attribute header (2-byte ID + 2-byte
length) fits inside the IE:
if (attr_ptr + 4 > wps_ie + wps_ielen)
break;
u16 attr_id = get_unaligned_be16(attr_ptr);
u16 attr_data_len = get_unaligned_be16(attr_ptr + 2);
u16 attr_len = attr_data_len + 4;
attr_data_len (and therefore attr_len) is read directly from the
wire and is never checked agai
staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB read in rtw_action_frame_parse()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB read in rtw_action_frame_parse()
rtw_action_frame_parse() takes a frame_len parameter but never
actually checks it before indexing into the frame body:
const u8 *frame_body = frame + sizeof(struct ieee80211_hdr_3addr);
...
c = frame_body[0];
...
a = frame_body[1];
frame_body already points 24 bytes (sizeof(struct
ieee80211_hdr_3addr)) into frame, so reading frame_body[0] and
frame_body[1] requires frame_len >= 26. A management action frame
shorter than that (e.g. exactly 24 bytes, the minimum a malicious
peer can send) causes a 1-2 byte ou
staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB read in rtw_restruct_wmm_ie()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB read in rtw_restruct_wmm_ie()
rtw_restruct_wmm_ie() scans in_ie for a WMM IE with:
while (i < in_len) {
...
if (i + 5 < in_len && in_ie[i] == 0xDD && ...) {
...
break;
}
i += (in_ie[i + 1] + 2); /* to the next IE element */
}
When the "i + 5 < in_len" match check fails simply because i is
within 5 bytes of the end of the buffer (i.e. no WMM IE was found
near the tail of in_ie), execution falls through to
"i += (in_ie[i + 1] + 2)", which reads in_ie[i + 1]. If i == in_len
- 1 at that point, this is a 1-byte out-of-bounds read of
xhci: fix lost bounce buffers on TDs spanning several ring segments
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xhci: fix lost bounce buffers on TDs spanning several ring segments
When a TD reaches a link TRB with data that is not aligned to the
endpoint's wMaxPacketSize, xhci_align_td() stages the unalignable tail
through the bounce buffer of the ring segment holding that link TRB.
xhci_unmap_td_bounce_buffer() later unmaps it and, for IN transfers,
copies the data back into the URB's buffer.
The enqueue path records the segment that was bounced in td->bounce_seg,
under the assumption that a TD never spans more than two ring segments.
That assumption does not hold: a TD large enoug
tracing: Take trace_array reference when opening options file
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Take trace_array reference when opening options file
The options files do not take the trace_array reference for the options
they represent. This could cause a use-after-free kernel crash if one of
these files is opened by one task and another task removes the instance
that the option is for. Because it doesn't take a reference upon opening,
it will not stop the removal which will free the options descriptor that
is being used.
As the options are somewhat dynamic in their creation at boot up, each
file represents a flag in the trace_array. The trace_array has an a
scsi: target: iscsi: Reserve a terminator byte for the login payload
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: iscsi: Reserve a terminator byte for the login payload
iscsi_target_check_login_request() rejects a login PDU whose
DataSegmentLength exceeds MAX_KEY_VALUE_PAIRS, but the test is '>' and
login->req_buf is allocated with exactly MAX_KEY_VALUE_PAIRS
bytes. Since iscsit_get_login_rx() receives payload_length + padding
bytes, where
padding = ((-payload_length) & 3);
any payload_length from 8189 to 8192 fills the whole 8192 byte
buffer. The write stays in bounds, but no byte is left for a NUL
terminator.
The buffer is subsequently consumed as a C string. In the
scsi: pm8001: Use rollback index when freeing MSI-X vectors
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: pm8001: Use rollback index when freeing MSI-X vectors
pm8001_request_msix() unwinds previously registered handlers with
free_irq() when request_irq() fails. The rollback loop uses the failing
index i for every iteration instead of the already registered vector
index j.
That passes the wrong IRQ/dev_id pair to free_irq() and leaves the
earlier handlers installed. Use j for both pci_irq_vector() and the
matching irq_vector entry in the rollback loop.
ftrace: Take trace_array reference before accessing its ftrace_ops
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ftrace: Take trace_array reference before accessing its ftrace_ops
The trace instance files set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace was
updated to work with specific trace instances (trace_arrays). The issue is
that when these files are opened, there is a small race window where it
will use the ftrace_ops from the inode->private pointer to get a reference
to the trace_array and then take its reference. The problem is that the
ftrace_ops itself could be freed. If the rmdir on the instance happens at
the same time the set_ftrace_filter file is opened, the rmdir could have

HID: rmi: fix OOB access with undersized RMI reports
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: rmi: fix OOB access with undersized RMI reports
The hid-rmi driver sizes its writeReport/readReport buffer purely from
the report descriptor supplied by the device, with no minimum bound:
data->input_report_size = hid_report_len(input_report);
data->output_report_size = hid_report_len(output_report);
alloc_size = data->output_report_size + data->input_report_size;
data->writeReport = devm_kzalloc(&hdev->dev, alloc_size, GFP_KERNEL);
data->readReport = data->writeReport + data->output_report_size;
but then reads and writes fixed offsets into it. A device declar
HID: wacom: validate report length in wacom_intuos_pro2_bt_irq
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: wacom: validate report length in wacom_intuos_pro2_bt_irq
wacom_intuos_pro2_bt_irq() receives the wire report length in `len`
but never consults it before parsing. After the report-id gate it
unconditionally calls wacom_intuos_pro2_bt_pen() and then, selected by
features.type, a fixed chain of sub-parsers, none of which receive
`len`:
wacom_intuos_pro2_bt_pen(wacom);
if (type == INTUOSP2_BT || type == INTUOSP2S_BT) {
wacom_intuos_pro2_bt_touch(wacom);
wacom_intuos_pro2_bt_pad(wacom);
wacom_intuos_pro2_bt_battery(wacom);
} else {

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm: fix resume-vs-remove race
If the user issues the resume ioctl and the remove ioctl at the same
time, it may be possible that the device is resumed after it is suspended
in __dm_destroy. The result is that the table is destroyed without
calling the postsuspend method.
Dm targets expect that they may be removed only after the postsuspend
method method was called. If we break this expectation, it can cause
misbehavior in various targets. For example - in the dm-integrity target,
the reboot notifier is not unregistered, leading to use-after-free.
Fix this bug by refusing
dmaengine: dw-edma: Initialize IRQ data before requesting IRQs
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: dw-edma: Initialize IRQ data before requesting IRQs
dw_edma_irq_request() passes struct dw_edma_irq to request_irq() before
dw_edma_channel_setup() fills the back pointer. A shared interrupt can
therefore enter the handler with dw_irq->dw still NULL, leading to a
NULL pointer dereference.
Set the back pointer before installing each handler.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kprobes: Protect kprobe_blacklist with RCU
__within_kprobe_blacklist() traverses kprobe_blacklist without holding
kprobe_mutex. When a module is unloaded, kprobe_remove_area_blacklist()
removes blacklist entries and immediately frees them with kfree().
A concurrent call to within_kprobe_blacklist() can therefore dereference
freed memory.
Furthermore, within_kprobe_blacklist() can be called in atomic or
non-preemptible contexts where the sleeping kprobe_mutex cannot be taken.
Protect kprobe_blacklist with RCU. Use guard(rcu)() and
list_for_each_entry_rcu() for traversal, l
mm/huge_memory: transfer the pmd dirty bit to the folio on zap
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/huge_memory: transfer the pmd dirty bit to the folio on zap
zap_huge_pmd_folio() propagates the pmd young bit to the folio for the
file case, but not the dirty bit. The pte path does propagate it, in
zap_present_folio_ptes() and so does the pmd split path, in
__split_huge_pmd_locked().
For most file mappings the omission is harmless, because writing to a
shared file mapping goes through page_mkwrite(), which dirties the folio.
tmpfs is different: it has no page_mkwrite(), and vma_wants_writenotify()
is false for it, so a *read* fault on a MAP_SHARED tmpfs mapping inst
i2c: mux: Fix channel node leak on adapter add failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: mux: Fix channel node leak on adapter add failure
i2c_mux_add_adapter() takes a reference to the Device Tree channel node
before registering the new adapter. If adapter registration fails, the
error path frees the private data without dropping that reference.
Release the channel node before freeing the private data.
ALSA: pcm: Fix race between non-atomic ops and trigger-start
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: pcm: Fix race between non-atomic ops and trigger-start
We protect the races of the concurrent state transitions between
atomic PCM ops, but the checks between the non-atomic ops (hw_params,
hw_free and prepare) and the atomic ops aren't perfect; there is a
check of the conflicting PCM state at the beginning of hw_params & co,
but the atomic PCM ops can be still issued during the non-atomic PCM
operations. An example such scenario is that a thread A re-issues the
PREPARE or HW_PARAMS for the already prepared stream, while another
thread B triggers the PCM start in the
nvme-tcp: check the data direction of a C2HData PDU
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvme-tcp: check the data direction of a C2HData PDU
nvme_tcp_handle_c2h_data() finds the request by command id and checks
that it has a payload, but it does not check that the command asked for
data to be read. A controller that answers a write command with C2HData
therefore reaches nvme_tcp_recv_data(), where _copy_to_iter() hits
WARN_ON_ONCE(i->data_source) and returns 0. The receive path turns that
into -EFAULT and resets the controller.
No data is copied, so this is not memory corruption. What a controller
gets is a kernel warning it can raise at will, which is fata
