| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: dw-edma: Add spinlock to protect DONE_INT_MASK and ABORT_INT_MASK
The DONE_INT_MASK and ABORT_INT_MASK registers are shared by all DMA
channels, and modifying them requires a read-modify-write sequence.
Because this operation is not atomic, concurrent calls to
dw_edma_v0_core_start() can introduce race conditions if two channels
update these registers simultaneously.
Add a spinlock to serialize access to these registers and prevent race
conditions.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf,fork: wipe ->bpf_storage before bailouts that access it
Currently, copy_process() can bail out to free_task() before p->bpf_storage
has been initialized, with this call graph (shown here for the
!CONFIG_MEMCG case):
copy_process
dup_task_struct
arch_dup_task_struct
[copies the entire task_struct, including ->bpf_storage member]
[RLIMIT_NPROC check fails]
delayed_free_task
free_task
bpf_task_storage_free
rcu_dereference(task->bpf_storage)
bpf_local_storage_destroy
In this case, the nascent task's ->bpf_storage member that
bpf_local_storage_destroy() operates on is a plain copy of the parent's
->bpf_storage pointer, not a real initialized pointer.
This leads to badness (kernel hangs, UAF).
This is reachable as long as the process calling fork() has been inserted
into a task storage map. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: libertas_tf: fix use-after-free in lbtf_free_adapter()
lbtf_free_adapter() calls timer_delete(&priv->command_timer), which does
not wait for a running command_timer_fn() callback. lbtf_free_adapter()
runs on the teardown path right before ieee80211_free_hw() frees priv,
both in lbtf_remove_card() and in the probe error path. command_timer is
armed by mod_timer() in lbtf_cmd() whenever a firmware command is sent.
command_timer_fn() dereferences priv. If a command times out as the
device is removed, command_timer_fn() runs concurrently with teardown and
dereferences priv after it has been freed.
This is the same use-after-free that commit 03cc8f90d053 ("wifi: libertas:
fix use-after-free in lbs_free_adapter()") fixed in the sibling libertas
driver. The libertas_tf variant has the identical pattern and was left
unchanged. Use timer_delete_sync() so any in-flight callback completes
before priv is freed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
locking/rt: Fix the incorrect RCU protection in rt_spin_unlock()
rt_spin_unlock() releases the RCU protection before unlocking the
lock. That opens the door for the following UAF scenario:
T1 T2
spin_lock(&p->lock); rcu_read_lock();
invalidate(p); p = rcu_dereference(ptr);
rcu_assign_pointer(ptr, NULL); if (!p) return;
spin_unlock(&p->lock); spin_lock(&p->lock)
lock(&lock->lock);
rcu_read_lock();
kfree_rcu(p); rcu_read_unlock();
....
spin_unlock(&p->lock)
rcu_read_unlock(); // Ends grace period
rcu_do_batch()
kfree(p);
UAF -> rt_mutex_cmpxchg_release(&lock->lock...)
Regular spinlocks keep preemption disabled accross the unlock operation,
which provides full RCU protection, but the RT substitution fails to
resemble that. Same applies for the rwlock substitution.
Move the rcu_read_unlock() invocation past the unlock operations to match
the non-RT semantics. This makes it asymmetric vs. rt_xxx_lock(), but
that's harmless as the caller needs to hold RCU read lock across the lock
operation. The migrate_enable() call stays before the unlock operation
because there is no per CPU operation in the unlock path which would
require migration to be kept disabled. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing/osnoise: Call synchronize_rcu() when unregistering
This ensures that any RCU readers traversing the instance list
have finished, before releasing the reference on the tracer that
the instance points to. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: seq: close a re-opened queue timer in the destructor
queue_delete() closes the queue timer, then frees it. snd_seq_timer_close()
clears q->timer->timeri. snd_use_lock_sync() then drains borrowers, and
snd_seq_timer_delete() frees q->timer.
A borrower can re-open the timer inside that window. A SET_QUEUE_CLIENT
that took a queueptr() use_lock reference before the queue was unlinked
runs snd_seq_timer_open() after the close. Open refuses re-open only while
timeri is set, and the close just cleared it, so it re-opens timeri.
snd_seq_timer_delete() does not close that instance. Its snd_seq_timer_stop()
is a no-op, because running was cleared first. So it frees q->timer with the
instance still live. The queue is freed next.
The instance stays on the global timer with callback_data pointing at the
freed queue. A non-owner START on the unlocked queue arms it. The next tick
derefs the freed queue in snd_seq_timer_interrupt().
Reachable by an unprivileged user with access to /dev/snd/seq. No CAP and
no queue ownership required.
Close any lingering instance in the destructor. There, ->timeri can no
longer change: the queue is unlinked and all use_lock borrowers have
drained, so no snd_seq_queue_use() can re-open it. Close it before clearing
q->timer. snd_timer_close() waits for any in-flight snd_seq_timer_interrupt()
to finish, and that callback still reads q->timer (via snd_seq_check_queue()),
so q->timer must stay valid until it drains. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath6kl: fix use-after-free in aggr_reset_state()
The aggr_reset_state() function uses timer_delete() (non-synchronous)
for the aggregation timer before proceeding to delete TID state and
before the structure is freed by callers like aggr_module_destroy().
If the timer callback (aggr_timeout) is executing when aggr_reset_state()
is called, the callback will continue to access aggr_conn fields like
rx_tid[] and stat[] which may be freed immediately after by
kfree(aggr_info->aggr_conn) in aggr_module_destroy().
Additionally, the timer callback can re-arm itself via mod_timer() while
aggr_reset_state() is running, creating a more complex race condition.
Use timer_delete_sync() instead to ensure any running timer callback
has completed before returning. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: avoid auth_enable sysctl UAF during netns teardown
proc_sctp_do_auth() updates the SCTP control socket after changing
net.sctp.auth_enable. The handler gets the per-net SCTP state from
ctl->data, so an already opened sysctl file can still target a network
namespace while that namespace is being torn down.
SCTP previously registered its per-net sysctls from sctp_defaults_init(),
while the control socket is created later from sctp_ctrlsock_init(). This
exposed a window during initialization where auth_enable was writable
before net->sctp.ctl_sock existed, and a teardown window where auth_enable
stayed writable after inet_ctl_sock_destroy() had released the control
socket.
Move the per-net SCTP sysctl registration into sctp_ctrlsock_init() after
sctp_ctl_sock_init() succeeds, and unregister the sysctl table before
destroying the control socket in sctp_ctrlsock_exit(). If sysctl
registration fails after the control socket was created, destroy the
control socket in the same init path.
Make sctp_sysctl_net_unregister() tolerate a missing header and clear the
saved pointer so init-error and exit paths can safely share the unregister
helper. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ftrace: Add global mutex to serialize trace_parser access
In ftrace, the trace_parser structure is allocated and initialized when
a trace file is opened, and is subsequently used across write and release
handlers to parse user input.
The affected handler paths and their specific functions are:
- Open paths: ftrace_regex_open(), ftrace_graph_open()
- Write paths: ftrace_regex_write(), ftrace_graph_write()
- Release paths: ftrace_regex_release(), ftrace_graph_release()
If userspace opens a trace file descriptor and shares it across multiple
threads, concurrent write calls will race on the parser's internal state,
specifically the 'idx', 'cont', and 'buffer' fields, leading to corrupted
input or undefined behavior.
Fix this by adding a global mutex, parser_lock, to serialize all access
to trace_parser across write and release paths, preventing concurrent
corruption of parser state. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ip_tunnel: adapt iptunnel_xmit_stats() to NETDEV_PCPU_STAT_DSTATS
Blamed commits forgot that vxlan/geneve use udp_tunnel[6]_xmit_skb() which
call iptunnel_xmit_stats().
iptunnel_xmit_stats() was assuming tunnels were only using
NETDEV_PCPU_STAT_TSTATS.
@syncp offset in pcpu_sw_netstats and pcpu_dstats is different.
32bit kernels would either have corruptions or freezes if the syncp
sequence was overwritten.
This patch also moves pcpu_stat_type closer to dev->{t,d}stats to avoid
a potential cache line miss since iptunnel_xmit_stats() needs to read it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bridge: mrp: fix uninitialised bytes on the wire
br_mrp_alloc_test_skb() builds MRP test frames on an skb from
dev_alloc_skb(), which does not clear the linear data area. On the MRA
ring-role branch the sub-option TLV header is appended with
sub_tlv = skb_put(skb, sizeof(*sub_tlv));
sub_tlv->type = BR_MRP_SUB_TLV_HEADER_TEST_AUTO_MGR;
so sub_tlv->length is never written, and the two trailing alignment bytes
are appended with a bare skb_put() that does not clear them either. The
neighbouring oui and sub_opt regions are explicitly zeroed, so three
uninitialised bytes are left in every MRA MRP_Test frame that goes out.
Put the sub-option TLV header and the alignment padding in a single
skb_put_zero(), which clears both. The AUTO_MGR sub-TLV carries no
payload, so the zeroed length field is already the value it should have. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: us144mkii: re-anchor capture URBs on resubmission
capture_urb_complete() resubmits each capture URB without anchoring it:
usb_get_urb(urb);
ret = usb_submit_urb(urb, GFP_ATOMIC);
Anchoring is a property of a submission, not of the URB. The giveback
path calls usb_unanchor_urb() before urb->complete(), so an URB
resubmitted from its own completion handler is off the anchor. The
capture URBs are anchored once, at stream start, so from the first
completion onward tascam->capture_anchor is empty.
tascam_free_urbs(), tascam_disconnect(), tascam_suspend() and the
stop-work path all call usb_kill_anchored_urbs(&tascam->capture_anchor)
to reap the capture URBs before anything is freed. With the anchor empty
those calls return immediately and the URBs stay queued on the host
controller.
tascam_free_urbs() then returns the capture transfer buffers with
usb_free_coherent(), and snd_card_free() releases the snd_card
allocation that embeds tascam (card->private_data). The controller
completes the queued URBs afterwards, writing device-supplied data into
the freed transfer buffer, and capture_urb_complete() dereferences the
freed driver object.
KASAN on 7.2.0-rc5 (arm64):

Restore the usb_anchor_urb() between the reference count bump and the
resubmission. That also makes the handler's usb_unanchor_urb() failure
arm meaningful again and restores usb_kill_anchored_urbs() as a barrier
on the disconnect, suspend and stop-work paths.
The anchoring was removed on the premise that the URB is already anchored
from the initial submission, which does not hold once the first giveback
has run.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp: defer md5sig_info kfree past RCU grace period in tcp_connect
The md5+ao reconciliation in tcp_connect() (net/ipv4/tcp_output.c)
has two symmetric branches:
if (needs_md5) {
tcp_ao_destroy_sock(sk, false);
} else if (needs_ao) {
tcp_clear_md5_list(sk);
kfree(rcu_replace_pointer(tp->md5sig_info, NULL, ...));
}
Both branches free a per-socket auth-info object while the socket is
in TCP_SYN_SENT and is already on the inet ehash (inserted by
inet_hash_connect() in tcp_v4_connect()). Both branches are reachable
by softirq RX-path readers that load the corresponding info pointer
via implicit RCU before bh_lock_sock_nested() is taken.
The needs_md5 branch is fixed in the prior patch by re-introducing
the call_rcu() free in tcp_ao_destroy_sock(): the equivalent per-key
loop runs inside tcp_ao_info_free_rcu(), the RCU callback, so by the
time it frees each tcp_ao_key all softirq readers that captured the
container have already completed rcu_read_unlock().
The needs_ao branch is not symmetric in the same way. The container
free can be deferred via kfree_rcu(md5sig, rcu) -- struct
tcp_md5sig_info already has the required rcu member
(include/net/tcp.h:1999-2002), and the rest of the tree already does
this in the tcp_md5sig_info_add() rollback paths
(net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c:1410, 1436). But the per-key teardown is done
by tcp_clear_md5_list() in process context BEFORE the container's
RCU grace period: it walks &md5sig->head and frees each
tcp_md5sig_key with bare hlist_del + kfree. A concurrent softirq
reader in __tcp_md5_do_lookup() / __tcp_md5_do_lookup_exact()
(tcp_ipv4.c:1253, 1298) walks the same list via
hlist_for_each_entry_rcu() and races with that bare kfree on the
keys themselves -- a per-key slab use-after-free of the same class
as the TCP-AO bug, on the same race window.
Fix this in two halves:
1. Convert the bare kfree() in tcp_connect() to kfree_rcu() so the
md5sig_info container joins the rest of the md5sig lifecycle.
The local-variable lift is mechanical and required because
kfree_rcu() is a macro that expects an lvalue.
2. Make tcp_clear_md5_list() RCU-safe by replacing hlist_del +
kfree(key) with hlist_del_rcu + kfree_rcu(key, rcu). struct
tcp_md5sig_key already carries the rcu member
(include/net/tcp.h:1995) and tcp_md5_do_del()
(net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c:1456) already uses kfree_rcu, so this
restores the lifecycle invariant the rest of the file follows
rather than introducing a one-off.
The other caller of tcp_clear_md5_list() is tcp_md5_destruct_sock()
(net/ipv4/tcp.c:412), which runs from the sock destructor when the
socket is already unhashed and unreachable; the extra grace period
there is unnecessary but harmless. Making the helper unconditionally
RCU-safe is the cleaner contract.
The needs_ao branch is not reachable by the userns reproducer used
to demonstrate the AO-side splat (the repro installs both keys but
ends up in the needs_md5 branch because the connect peer matches
the MD5 key, not the AO key); however the symmetric race exists
and a maintainer touching this code should not have to think about
which branch escapes RCU and which one does not.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: sh: rz-dmac: Move interrupt request after everything is set up
Once the interrupt is requested, the interrupt handler may run immediately.
Since the IRQ handler can access channel->ch_base, which is initialized
only after requesting the IRQ, this may lead to invalid memory access.
Likewise, the IRQ thread may access uninitialized data (the ld_free,
ld_queue, and ld_active lists), which may also lead to issues.
Request the interrupts only after everything is set up. To keep the error
path simpler, use dmam_alloc_coherent() instead of dma_alloc_coherent(). |

sunrpc: fix uninitialized xprt_create_args structure
The xprt_create_args structure is allocated on the stack without
initialization in rpc_sysfs_xprt_switch_add_xprt_store(). While some
fields are manually populated, critical fields like srcaddr, bc_xps,
and flags contain uninitialized stack garbage.
This can lead to:
1. Kernel panic when xs_setup_xprt() dereferences garbage srcaddr
2. Information leak if srcaddr points to sensitive stack data
3. Unpredictable behavior if flags has random bits set
The fix is to zero-initialize the structure to ensure all unused
fields are NULL/0, preventing the transport setup code from acting
on garbage data. |

openrisc: Fix jump_label smp syncing
The original commit 8c30b0018f9d ("openrisc: Add jump label support")
copies from arm64 and does not properly consider how icache invalidation
on remote cores works in OpenRISC. On OpenRISC remote icaches need to
be invalidated otherwise static key's may remain state after updating.
Fix SMP cache syncing by:
1. Properly invalidate remote core icaches on SMP systems by using
icache_all_inv. The old code uses kick_all_cpus_sync() which runs a
no-op IPI function call on remote CPU's which does execute a lot of
code and flushes many cache lines in the process, but does not flush
all and it's not correct on OpenRISC.
2. For architectures that do not have WRITETHROUGH caches be sure
to flush the dcache after patching.
To test this I first reproduced the issue using a custom test module
[0]. The test confirmed that some icache lines maintained stale
static_key code sequences after calling static_branch_enable(). After
this patch there are no longer jump_label coherency issues.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: put stats for scheme_add_dirs() internal error
damon_sysfs_scheme_add_dirs() setup the tried_regions directory after the
stats directory setup is completed. When the tried_regions directory
setup is failed, the setup function ensures the reference for the tried
regions directory is released. Hence the error path should put references
on setup succeeded directory objects, starting from the stats directory.
However, the error path is putting the tried_regions directory instead of
the stats directory.
As a direct result, the stats directory object is leaked. Worse yet, if
the tried_regions directory setup failed from the initial allocation, the
scheme->tried_regions field remains uninitialized. The following
kobject_put(&scheme->tried_regions->kobj) call in the error path will
dereference the uninitialized memory. The setup failures should not be
common. But once it happens, the consequence is quite bad.
Fix this issue by correctly putting the stats directory instead of the
tried_regions directory.
The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: fix dir put orders in access_pattern_add_dirs()
Patch series "mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: fix wrong directories put orders in
error paths".
Error paths of damon_sysfs_access_pattern_add_dirs() and
damon_sysfs_scheme_add_dirs() functions put references to directories in
wrong orders. As a result, uninitialized memory dereference and/or
memory leak can happen. Fix those.
This patch (of 2):
In access_pattern_add_dirs(), error handling path puts references starting
from setup failed directories. If the failure happpened from the initial
allication in the setup functions, uninitialized memory dereference
happen. The allocation failures will not commonly happen, but the
consequence is quite bad. Fix the wrong reference put orders.
The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/memory_hotplug: fix incorrect altmap passing in error path
In create_altmaps_and_memory_blocks(), when arch_add_memory() succeeds
with memmap_on_memory enabled, the vmemmap pages are allocated from
params.altmap. If create_memory_block_devices() subsequently fails, the
error path calls arch_remove_memory() with a NULL altmap instead of
params.altmap.
This is a bug that could lead to memory corruption. Since altmap is NULL,
vmemmap_free() falls back to freeing the vmemmap pages into the system
buddy allocator via free_pages() instead of the altmap.
arch_remove_memory() then immediately destroys the physical linear mapping
for this memory. This injects unowned pages into the buddy allocator,
causing machine checks or memory corruption if the system later attempts
to allocate and use those freed pages.
Fix this by passing params.altmap to arch_remove_memory() in the error
path. |
