| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: qfq: Use cl_is_active to determine whether class is active in qfq_rm_from_ag
This is more of a preventive patch to make the code more consistent and
to prevent possible exploits that employ child qlen manipulations on qfq.
use cl_is_active instead of relying on the child qdisc's qlen to determine
class activation. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: fix use-after-free in nf_tables_addchain()
nf_tables_addchain() publishes the chain to table->chains via
list_add_tail_rcu() (in nft_chain_add()) before registering hooks.
If nf_tables_register_hook() then fails, the error path calls
nft_chain_del() (list_del_rcu()) followed by nf_tables_chain_destroy()
with no RCU grace period in between.
This creates two use-after-free conditions:
1) Control-plane: nf_tables_dump_chains() traverses table->chains
under rcu_read_lock(). A concurrent dump can still be walking
the chain when the error path frees it.
2) Packet path: for NFPROTO_INET, nf_register_net_hook() briefly
installs the IPv4 hook before IPv6 registration fails. Packets
entering nft_do_chain() via the transient IPv4 hook can still be
dereferencing chain->blob_gen_X when the error path frees the
chain.
Add synchronize_rcu() between nft_chain_del() and the chain destroy
so that all RCU readers -- both dump threads and in-flight packet
evaluation -- have finished before the chain is freed. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
macvlan: fix possible UAF in macvlan_forward_source()
Add RCU protection on (struct macvlan_source_entry)->vlan.
Whenever macvlan_hash_del_source() is called, we must clear
entry->vlan pointer before RCU grace period starts.
This allows macvlan_forward_source() to skip over
entries queued for freeing.
Note that macvlan_dev are already RCU protected, as they
are embedded in a standard netdev (netdev_priv(ndev)).

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipvs: fix ipv4 null-ptr-deref in route error path
The IPv4 code path in __ip_vs_get_out_rt() calls dst_link_failure()
without ensuring skb->dev is set, leading to a NULL pointer dereference
in fib_compute_spec_dst() when ipv4_link_failure() attempts to send
ICMP destination unreachable messages.
The issue emerged after commit ed0de45a1008 ("ipv4: recompile ip options
in ipv4_link_failure") started calling __ip_options_compile() from
ipv4_link_failure(). This code path eventually calls fib_compute_spec_dst()
which dereferences skb->dev. An attempt was made to fix the NULL skb->dev
dereference in commit 0113d9c9d1cc ("ipv4: fix null-deref in
ipv4_link_failure"), but it only addressed the immediate dev_net(skb->dev)
dereference by using a fallback device. The fix was incomplete because
fib_compute_spec_dst() later in the call chain still accesses skb->dev
directly, which remains NULL when IPVS calls dst_link_failure().
The crash occurs when:
1. IPVS processes a packet in NAT mode with a misconfigured destination
2. Route lookup fails in __ip_vs_get_out_rt() before establishing a route
3. The error path calls dst_link_failure(skb) with skb->dev == NULL
4. ipv4_link_failure() → ipv4_send_dest_unreach() →
__ip_options_compile() → fib_compute_spec_dst()
5. fib_compute_spec_dst() dereferences NULL skb->dev
Apply the same fix used for IPv6 in commit 326bf17ea5d4 ("ipvs: fix
ipv6 route unreach panic"): set skb->dev from skb_dst(skb)->dev before
calling dst_link_failure().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: fw_tracer, Validate format string parameters
Add validation for format string parameters in the firmware tracer to
prevent potential security vulnerabilities and crashes from malformed
format strings received from firmware.
The firmware tracer receives format strings from the device firmware and
uses them to format trace messages. Without proper validation, bad
firmware could provide format strings with invalid format specifiers
(e.g., %s, %p, %n) that could lead to crashes, or other undefined
behavior.
Add mlx5_tracer_validate_params() to validate that all format specifiers
in trace strings are limited to safe integer/hex formats (%x, %d, %i,
%u, %llx, %lx, etc.). Reject strings containing other format types that
could be used to access arbitrary memory or cause crashes.
Invalid format strings are added to the trace output for visibility with
"BAD_FORMAT: " prefix. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
EDAC/versalnet: Fix device_node leak in mc_probe()
of_parse_phandle() returns a device_node reference that must be released with
of_node_put(). The original code never freed r5_core_node on any exit path,
causing a memory leak.
Fix this by using the automatic cleanup attribute __free(device_node) which
ensures of_node_put() is called when the variable goes out of scope. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ks8851: Reinstate disabling of BHs around IRQ handler
If the driver executes ks8851_irq() AND a TX packet has been sent, then
the driver enables TX queue via netif_wake_queue() which schedules TX
softirq to queue packets for this device.
If CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y is set AND a packet has also been received by
the MAC, then ks8851_rx_pkts() calls netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align() to
allocate SKBs for the received packets. If netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align()
is called with BH enabled, then local_bh_enable() at the end of
netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align() will trigger the pending softirq processing,
which may ultimately call the .xmit callback ks8851_start_xmit_par().
The ks8851_start_xmit_par() will try to lock struct ks8851_net_par
.lock spinlock, which is already locked by ks8851_irq() from which
ks8851_start_xmit_par() was called. This leads to a deadlock, which
is reported by the kernel, including a trace listed below.
If CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT is not set, then since commit 0913ec336a6c0
("net: ks8851: Fix deadlock with the SPI chip variant") the deadlock
can also be triggered without received packet in the RX FIFO. The
pending softirqs will be processed on return from
spin_unlock_bh(&ks->statelock) in ks8851_irq(), which triggers the
deadlock as well.
Fix the problem by disabling BH around critical sections, including the
IRQ handler, thus preventing the net_tx_action() softirq from triggering
during these critical sections. The net_tx_action() softirq is triggered
once BH are re-enabled and at the end of the IRQ handler, once all the
other IRQ handler actions have been completed.

KVM: nSVM: Triple fault if restore host CR3 fails on nested #VMEXIT
If loading L1's CR3 fails on a nested #VMEXIT, nested_svm_vmexit()
returns an error code that is ignored by most callers, and continues to
run L1 with corrupted state. A sane recovery is not possible in this
case, and HW behavior is to cause a shutdown. Inject a triple fault
instead, and do not return early from nested_svm_vmexit(). Continue
cleaning up the vCPU state (e.g. clear pending exceptions), to handle
the failure as gracefully as possible.
From the APM:
Upon #VMEXIT, the processor performs the following actions in order to
return to the host execution context:
...
if (illegal host state loaded, or exception while loading host state)
shutdown
else
execute first host instruction following the VMRUN
Remove the return value of nested_svm_vmexit(), which is mostly
unchecked anyway. |

vfio/cdx: Fix NULL pointer dereference in interrupt trigger path
Add validation to ensure MSI is configured before accessing cdx_irqs
array in vfio_cdx_set_msi_trigger(). Without this check, userspace
can trigger a NULL pointer dereference by calling VFIO_DEVICE_SET_IRQS
with VFIO_IRQ_SET_DATA_BOOL or VFIO_IRQ_SET_DATA_NONE flags before
ever setting up interrupts via VFIO_IRQ_SET_DATA_EVENTFD.
The vfio_cdx_msi_enable() function allocates the cdx_irqs array and
sets config_msi to 1 only when called through the EVENTFD path. The
trigger loop (for DATA_BOOL/DATA_NONE) assumed this had already been
done, but there was no enforcement of this call ordering.
This matches the protection used in the PCI VFIO driver where
vfio_pci_set_msi_trigger() checks irq_is() before the trigger loop. |

mm/page_alloc: return NULL early from alloc_frozen_pages_nolock() in NMI on UP
On UP kernels (!CONFIG_SMP), spin_trylock() is a no-op that
unconditionally succeeds even when the lock is already held. As a
result, alloc_frozen_pages_nolock() called from NMI context can
re-enter rmqueue() and acquire the zone lock that the interrupted
context is already holding, corrupting the freelists.

ext4: xattr: fix null pointer deref in ext4_raw_inode()
If ext4_get_inode_loc() fails (e.g. if it returns -EFSCORRUPTED),
iloc.bh will remain set to NULL. Since ext4_xattr_inode_dec_ref_all()
lacks error checking, this will lead to a null pointer dereference
in ext4_raw_inode(), called right after ext4_get_inode_loc().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fsnotify: do not generate ACCESS/MODIFY events on child for special files
inotify/fanotify do not allow users with no read access to a file to
subscribe to events (e.g. IN_ACCESS/IN_MODIFY), but they do allow the
same user to subscribe for watching events on children when the user
has access to the parent directory (e.g. /dev).
Users with no read access to a file but with read access to its parent
directory can still stat the file and see if it was accessed/modified
via atime/mtime change.
The same is not true for special files (e.g. /dev/null). Users will not
generally observe atime/mtime changes when other users read/write to
special files, only when someone sets atime/mtime via utimensat().
Align fsnotify events with this stat behavior and do not generate
ACCESS/MODIFY events to parent watchers on read/write of special files.
The events are still generated to parent watchers on utimensat(). This
closes some side-channels that could be possibly used for information
exfiltration [1].

iommu: disable SVA when CONFIG_X86 is set
Patch series "Fix stale IOTLB entries for kernel address space", v7.
This proposes a fix for a security vulnerability related to IOMMU Shared
Virtual Addressing (SVA). In an SVA context, an IOMMU can cache kernel
page table entries. When a kernel page table page is freed and
reallocated for another purpose, the IOMMU might still hold stale,
incorrect entries. This can be exploited to cause a use-after-free or
write-after-free condition, potentially leading to privilege escalation or
data corruption.
This solution introduces a deferred freeing mechanism for kernel page
table pages, which provides a safe window to notify the IOMMU to
invalidate its caches before the page is reused.
This patch (of 8):
In the IOMMU Shared Virtual Addressing (SVA) context, the IOMMU hardware
shares and walks the CPU's page tables. The x86 architecture maps the
kernel's virtual address space into the upper portion of every process's
page table. Consequently, in an SVA context, the IOMMU hardware can walk
and cache kernel page table entries.
The Linux kernel currently lacks a notification mechanism for kernel page
table changes, specifically when page table pages are freed and reused.
The IOMMU driver is only notified of changes to user virtual address
mappings. This can cause the IOMMU's internal caches to retain stale
entries for kernel VA.
Use-After-Free (UAF) and Write-After-Free (WAF) conditions arise when
kernel page table pages are freed and later reallocated. The IOMMU could
misinterpret the new data as valid page table entries. The IOMMU might
then walk into attacker-controlled memory, leading to arbitrary physical
memory DMA access or privilege escalation. This is also a
Write-After-Free issue, as the IOMMU will potentially continue to write
Accessed and Dirty bits to the freed memory while attempting to walk the
stale page tables.
Currently, SVA contexts are unprivileged and cannot access kernel
mappings. However, the IOMMU will still walk kernel-only page tables all
the way down to the leaf entries, where it realizes the mapping is for the
kernel and errors out. This means the IOMMU still caches these
intermediate page table entries, making the described vulnerability a real
concern.
Disable SVA on x86 architecture until the IOMMU can receive notification
to flush the paging cache before freeing the CPU kernel page table pages. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix deadlock in wait_current_trans() due to ignored transaction type
When wait_current_trans() is called during start_transaction(), it
currently waits for a blocked transaction without considering whether
the given transaction type actually needs to wait for that particular
transaction state. The btrfs_blocked_trans_types[] array already defines
which transaction types should wait for which transaction states, but
this check was missing in wait_current_trans().
This can lead to a deadlock scenario involving two transactions and
pending ordered extents:
1. Transaction A is in TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_DOING state
2. A worker processing an ordered extent calls start_transaction()
with TRANS_JOIN
3. join_transaction() returns -EBUSY because Transaction A is in
TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_DOING
4. Transaction A moves to TRANS_STATE_UNBLOCKED and completes
5. A new Transaction B is created (TRANS_STATE_RUNNING)
6. The ordered extent from step 2 is added to Transaction B's
pending ordered extents
7. Transaction B immediately starts commit by another task and
enters TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START
8. The worker finally reaches wait_current_trans(), sees Transaction B
in TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START (a blocked state), and waits
unconditionally
9. However, TRANS_JOIN should NOT wait for TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START
according to btrfs_blocked_trans_types[]
10. Transaction B is waiting for pending ordered extents to complete
11. Deadlock: Transaction B waits for ordered extent, ordered extent
waits for Transaction B
This can be illustrated by the following call stacks:
CPU0 CPU1
btrfs_finish_ordered_io()
start_transaction(TRANS_JOIN)
join_transaction()
# -EBUSY (Transaction A is
# TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_DOING)
# Transaction A completes
# Transaction B created
# ordered extent added to
# Transaction B's pending list
btrfs_commit_transaction()
# Transaction B enters
# TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START
# waiting for pending ordered
# extents
wait_current_trans()
# waits for Transaction B
# (should not wait!)

Fix this by passing the transaction type to wait_current_trans() and
checking btrfs_blocked_trans_types[cur_trans->state] against the given
type before deciding to wait. This ensures that transaction types which
are allowed to join during certain blocked states will not unnecessarily
wait and cause deadlocks. |

mm/damon/core: validate damos_quota_goal->nid for node_mem_{used,free}_bp
Patch series "mm/damon/core: validate damos_quota_goal->nid".
node_mem[cg]_{used,free}_bp DAMOS quota goals receive the node id. The
node id is used for si_meminfo_node() and NODE_DATA() without proper
validation. As a result, privileged users can trigger an out of bounds
memory access using DAMON_SYSFS. Fix the issues.
The issue was originally reported [1] with a fix by another author. The
original author announced [2] that they will stop working including the
fix that was still in the review stage. Hence I'm restarting this.
This patch (of 2):
Users can set damos_quota_goal->nid with arbitrary value for
node_mem_{used,free}_bp. But DAMON core is using those for
si_meminfo_node() without the validation of the value. This can result in
out of bounds memory access. The issue can actually triggered using DAMON
user-space tool (damo), like below.
$ sudo ./damo start --damos_action stat \
--damos_quota_goal node_mem_used_bp 50% -1 \
--damos_quota_interval 1s
$ sudo dmesg
[...]
[ 65.565986] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000098
Fix this issue by adding the validation of the given node. If an invalid
node id is given, it returns 0% for used memory ratio, and 100% for free

misc: ibmasm: fix OOB MMIO read in ibmasm_handle_mouse_interrupt()
ibmasm_handle_mouse_interrupt() performs an out-of-bounds MMIO read
when the queue reader or writer index from hardware exceeds
REMOTE_QUEUE_SIZE (60).
A compromised service processor can trigger this by writing an
out-of-range value to the reader or writer MMIO register before
asserting an interrupt. Since writer is re-read from hardware on
every loop iteration, it can also be set to an out-of-range value
after the loop has already started.
The root cause is that get_queue_reader() and get_queue_writer() return
raw readl() values that are passed directly into get_queue_entry(),
which computes:
queue_begin + reader * sizeof(struct remote_input)
with no bounds check. This unchecked MMIO address is then passed to
memcpy_fromio(), reading 8 bytes from unintended device registers.
For sufficiently large values the address falls outside the PCI BAR
mapping entirely, triggering a machine check exception.
Fix by checking both indices against REMOTE_QUEUE_SIZE at the top of
the loop body, before any call to get_queue_entry(). On an out-of-range
value, reset the reader register to 0 via set_queue_reader() before
breaking, so that normal queue operation can resume if the corrupted
hardware state is transient. |

dm mirror: fix integer overflow in create_dirty_log()
The argument count calculation in create_dirty_log() performs
`*args_used = 2 + param_count` before validating against argc. When a
user provides a param_count close to UINT_MAX via the device mapper
table string, this unsigned addition wraps around to a small value,
causing the subsequent `argc < *args_used` check to be bypassed.
The overflowed param_count is then passed as argc to dm_dirty_log_create(),
where it can cause out-of-bounds reads on the argv array.
Fix by comparing param_count against argc - 2 before performing the
addition, following the same pattern used by parse_features() in the
same file. Since argc >= 2 is already guaranteed, the subtraction is
safe. |

libceph: Prevent potential null-ptr-deref in ceph_handle_auth_reply()
If a message of type CEPH_MSG_AUTH_REPLY contains a zero value for both
protocol and result, this is currently not treated as an error. In case
of ac->negotiating == true and ac->protocol > 0, this leads to setting
ac->protocol = 0 and ac->ops = NULL. Thereafter, the check for
ac->protocol != protocol returns false, and init_protocol() is not
called. Subsequently, ac->ops->handle_reply() is called, which leads to
a null pointer dereference, because ac->ops is still NULL.
This patch changes the check for ac->protocol != protocol to
!ac->protocol, as this also includes the case when the protocol was set
to zero in the message. This causes the message to be treated as
containing a bad auth protocol. |

mm/damon/core: fix damon_call() vs kdamond_fn() exit race
Patch series "mm/damon/core: fix damon_call()/damos_walk() vs kdmond exit
race".
damon_call() and damos_walk() can leak memory and/or deadlock when they
race with kdamond terminations. Fix those.
This patch (of 2);
When kdamond_fn() main loop is finished, the function cancels all
remaining damon_call() requests and unset the damon_ctx->kdamond so that
API callers and API functions themselves can know the context is
terminated. damon_call() adds the caller's request to the queue first.
After that, it shows if the kdamond of the damon_ctx is still running
(damon_ctx->kdamond is set). Only if the kdamond is running, damon_call()
starts waiting for the kdamond's handling of the newly added request.
The damon_call() requests registration and damon_ctx->kdamond unset are
protected by different mutexes, though. Hence, damon_call() could race
with damon_ctx->kdamond unset, and result in deadlocks.
For example, let's suppose kdamond successfully finished the damon_call()
requests cancelling. Right after that, damon_call() is called for the
context. It registers the new request, and shows the context is still
running, because damon_ctx->kdamond unset is not yet done. Hence the
damon_call() caller starts waiting for the handling of the request.
However, the kdamond is already on the termination steps, so it never
handles the new request. As a result, the damon_call() caller threads
infinitely waits.
Fix this by introducing another damon_ctx field, namely
call_controls_obsolete. It is protected by the
damon_ctx->call_controls_lock, which protects damon_call() requests
registration. Initialize (unset) it in kdamond_fn() before letting
damon_start() returns and set it just before the cancelling of remaining
damon_call() requests is executed. damon_call() reads the obsolete field
under the lock and avoids adding a new request.
After this change, only requests that are guaranteed to be handled or
cancelled are registered. Hence the after-registration DAMON context
termination check is no longer needed. Remove it together.
Note that the deadlock will not happen when damon_call() is called for
repeat mode request. In tis case, damon_call() returns instead of waiting
for the handling when the request registration succeeds and it shows the
kdamond is running. However, if the request also has dealloc_on_cancel,
the request memory would be leaked.
