scsi: qla2xxx: Fix response queue over-consumption in __qla_consume_iocb()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: qla2xxx: Fix response queue over-consumption in __qla_consume_iocb()
qla24xx_process_response_queue() advances ring_ptr past the head IOCB
before dispatching, so by the time __qla_consume_iocb() runs, ring_ptr
already points at the first continuation IOCB. The function however
looped purex->entry_count times starting at ring_ptr. As entry_count
includes the head, this consumed one entry too many: it stamped
RESPONSE_PROCESSED on the next, unrelated IOCB and advanced the ring
past it, silently dropping a legitimate firmware response. The head
IOCB's signature was also
memcg: bypass the reclaim and oom killer for dying tasks once oom_reaper is done
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
memcg: bypass the reclaim and oom killer for dying tasks once oom_reaper is done
At Meta, we are seeing instances where an OOM killed job is stuck in the
exit path for several hours. In one particular case, the job was stuck
for more than 8 hours and I had to manually remove the memory.max limits
to allow the process to exit.
The job was a single process job and had ~55 GiB memory.max and zswap
enabled. It had almost 0 anon in memory and ~111 GiB in zswap compressed
to ~51 GiB zswap pool (i.e. almost all of memory.current was zswap).
Nothing was left on the LRUs to rec
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
memcg: make the v1 soft limit knob inert
The v1 soft limit has been deprecated since v6.12 and nobody has reported
depending on it. Start the removal by decoupling the interface from the
implementation: keep memory.soft_limit_in_bytes, but ignore writes to it
and always report the maximum value on read similar to what
memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes already does.
Writes are still parsed, so malformed input keeps returning -EINVAL. The
knob now also behaves the same everywhere: it used to return -EOPNOTSUPP
on PREEMPT_RT, where soft limit reclaim has always been disabled.

arm64: mm: Fix the lockless page-table walk in show_pte()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: mm: Fix the lockless page-table walk in show_pte()
show_pte() walks page tables locklessly and can run with interrupts
enabled. A concurrent teardown can free a table page while it is being
walked. It can also clear a parent entry after show_pte() checked it; the
regular pXd_offset() helpers then reread the cleared entry and can derive a
bogus lower-level pointer and fault again.
Use the lockless offset helpers with the saved parent entries, as
gup_fast() does, and pass the saved PMD to pte_offset_map().
For task page tables, arm64 selects MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
LoongArch: Add DIRECT_MAP_PHYSMEM_END definition
get_free_mem_region() and mhp_get_pluggable_range() bound their search
to DIRECT_MAP_PHYSMEM_END. LoongArch does not define it, so the fallback
in include/linux/mm.h applies: under CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP it is
(1ULL << MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS) - 1, a compile-time constant that does not
adapt to the CPU's physical address space bits (cpu_pabits, probed from
CPUCFG1).
The vmemmap window only covers physical space below 2^(cpu_pabits+1)
(i.e. VMEMMAP_SIZE), so on CPUs with fewer physical address bits than
MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS the fallba
media: meson: vdec: fix NULL pointer deref in vdec_try_fmt_common
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: meson: vdec: fix NULL pointer deref in vdec_try_fmt_common
When VIDIOC_TRY_FMT is called with an unsupported pixel format on the
OUTPUT queue, vdec_try_fmt_common() falls back to V4L2_PIX_FMT_MPEG2.
However, if a distro has locally patched MPEG2 support out (as it has
been broken for some time) the platform format table does not contain
MPEG2 so find_format() returns NULL and the subsequent dereference of
fmt_out->max_width triggers a NULL pointer dereference.
Fix this by falling back to the first format in the platform's format
array instead of hardcoding V4L2_PIX_

drm/gud: validate TV mode names before creating enum property
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/gud: validate TV mode names before creating enum property
The GUD protocol returns TV mode names as fixed-size
GUD_CONNECTOR_TV_MODE_NAME_LEN entries and requires each name to be
NUL-terminated.
gud_connector_add_tv_mode() currently passes each fixed-size entry
directly to drm_mode_create_tv_properties_legacy(), which eventually
reaches drm_property_add_enum() and strlen(). If a device returns an
entry without a terminating NUL byte, strlen() reads past the end of
the slot and can run beyond the allocated buffer, triggering an
out-of-bounds read.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
lockd: fix swapped arguments in nlmsvc_match_ip()
When releasing locks by server IP address via /proc/fs/nfsd/unlock_ip,
nlmsvc_unlock_all_by_ip() calls nlm_traverse_files() with the server
sockaddr as the opaque @data argument:
nlm_traverse_files(server_addr, nlmsvc_match_ip, NULL);
The match callback is later invoked from nlm_traverse_locks() as:
match(lockhost, host);
where the first argument is the nlm_host that owns the lock, and the
second argument is the @data that was originally passed down (here the
server sockaddr). This is the convention every other match
svcrdma: Reject Write/Reply chunks with segcount 0
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
svcrdma: Reject Write/Reply chunks with segcount 0
A peer can send a Write or Reply chunk whose segcount field is zero.
xdr_check_write_chunk() only rejects segcount > rc_maxpages, so zero
passes the range check, and xdr_inline_decode(stream, 0) returns the
current (non-NULL) cursor without advancing. The function returns
true and pcl_alloc_write() then links a struct svc_rdma_chunk with
ch_segcount == 0 onto rc_write_pcl or rc_reply_pcl.
An earlier patch in this series made pcl_for_each_segment() safe for
ch_segcount == 0, so this no longer drives the memory walk it used
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: use RCU iterator to dump route exceptions
rt6_nh_dump_exceptions() uses hlist_for_each_entry() to iterate over
RCU-protected exception lists. The caller holds rcu_read_lock(), but does
not hold rt6_exception_lock, so rt6_insert_exception() can concurrently
add an entry with hlist_add_head_rcu().
KCSAN reports this race (irrelevant details omitted):

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

send_signal_locked() rewrites sender ids for the target namespace. Group

nfsd: convert nfsd_net boolean flags to unsigned long flags word
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: convert nfsd_net boolean flags to unsigned long flags word
nfsd_net contains several boolean fields that are accessed from
concurrent contexts without serialization. In particular,
nfsd4_end_grace() guards its drain path with a plain bool:
if (nn->grace_ended)
return;
nn->grace_ended = true;
The read and the write are independent, and nothing in struct
nfsd_net serializes them. At least two contexts can reach this
code with no lock held:
laundromat path
laundry_wq kworker
nfs4_laundromat()
nfsd4_end_grace()

clocksource/drivers/timer-sun4i: Advertise a real minimum delta
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clocksource/drivers/timer-sun4i: Advertise a real minimum delta
sun4i_clkevt_next_event() compensates for the timer stop/start
synchronization delay by programming evt - TIMER_SYNC_TICKS into the
hardware interval register. The clockevent device currently advertises
TIMER_SYNC_TICKS as min_delta_ticks, so the clockevents core is allowed
to call set_next_event() with evt == TIMER_SYNC_TICKS.
That programs a zero-tick interval. With oneshot/highres/nohz timer
operation this can leave the next event stuck, which was observed as a
boot hang on Allwinner D1 after the clockevent
usb: gadget: f_tcm: fix deadlock in usbg_make_tpg()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_tcm: fix deadlock in usbg_make_tpg()
usbg_make_tpg() held dep_lock while calling
configfs_depend_item_unlocked(), which acquires the configfs root
inode lock when operating across subsystems. This creates a circular
lock dependency with configfs_rmdir():
dep_lock -> configfs root inode lock -> su_mutex -> dep_lock
In usbg_make_tpg(), dep_lock only serialized the read of opts->ready,
which is a monotonic flag that transitions from false to true exactly
once (in tcm_set_name()) and never reverts. Remove dep_lock from
usbg_make_tpg() entirely and use READ_ON
of: fix out-of-bounds read in of_alias_scan() stem parser
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
of: fix out-of-bounds read in of_alias_scan() stem parser
The stem parser tests isdigit(*(end - 1)) before checking end > start
and so reads one byte before the property name when the name is empty
or all digits. Check the bound first.
smb: client: harden DFS cache against invalid target hints
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: harden DFS cache against invalid target hints
Currently, get_tgt_name() returns ERR_PTR(-ENOENT) when ce->tgthint is
NULL, and dfs_cache_noreq_update_tgthint() assumes ce->tgthint is always
valid.
In preparation for clearing ce->tgthint in free_tgts(), harden callers
of get_tgt_name() against ERR_PTR results and harden
dfs_cache_noreq_update_tgthint() against NULL pointer dereferences.
PCI/proc: Use file_ns_capable() when checking config space read access
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI/proc: Use file_ns_capable() when checking config space read access
proc_bus_pci_read() decides how much of the config space is readable based
on capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN), which checks the credentials of the task calling
read(), not the credentials of the process that opened the file.
The sysfs equivalent, pci_read_config(), has checked the credentials of the
opening process since commit de139a339395 ("pci: check caps from sysfs file
open to read device dependent config space"), so a privileged process can
open the config space file and pass the file descriptor to an unpr
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Manage teardown with devm
arm_smmu_device_remove() manually frees the IOPF queue, destroys the
vmid_map and disables the device, while the IRQs and queues are devm
managed. devm unwinds only after remove() returns, so the cleanup runs
in the wrong order. The IOPF queue is freed before the event-queue IRQ
whose handler uses it.
Manage all of it with devm so the unwind order is correct. Free the IOPF
queue and vmid_map via devm actions, and disable the device from one
registered after arm_smmu_device_reset().
This is also a prerequisite for fixing a Tegra
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: dat: atomically update mac addresses
When a MAC address is updated in batadv_dat_entry_add(), it is done using a
simple copy function. A parallel reader might only see parts of this
update. In worst case, the reader is transporting the half updated MAC
address over the network or is creating an ARP response using it -
poisoning the ARP cache.
atomic64_t can be used to store the 48 bit of a mac address. A reader will
then either see the old mac address or the new one - never a mixture of
both.
