| A denial of service vulnerability due to a deadlock was found in sctp_auto_asconf_init in net/sctp/socket.c in the Linux kernel’s SCTP subsystem. This flaw allows guests with local user privileges to trigger a deadlock and potentially crash the system. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe: Only use reserved BCS instances for usm migrate exec queue
The GuC context scheduling queue is 2 entires deep, thus it is possible
for a migration job to be stuck behind a fault if migration exec queue
shares engines with user jobs. This can deadlock as the migrate exec
queue is required to service page faults. Avoid deadlock by only using
reserved BCS instances for usm migrate exec queue.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rhashtable: Fix potential deadlock by moving schedule_work outside lock
Move the hash table growth check and work scheduling outside the
rht lock to prevent a possible circular locking dependency.
The original implementation could trigger a lockdep warning due to
a potential deadlock scenario involving nested locks between
rhashtable bucket, rq lock, and dsq lock. By relocating the
growth check and work scheduling after releasing the rth lock, we break
this potential deadlock chain.
This change expands the flexibility of rhashtable by removing
restrictive locking that previously limited its use in scheduler
and workqueue contexts.
Import to say that this calls rht_grow_above_75(), which reads from
struct rhashtable without holding the lock, if this is a problem, we can
move the check to the lock, and schedule the workqueue after the lock.
Modified so that atomic_inc is also moved outside of the bucket
lock along with the growth above 75% check. |

but I'll say it anyway: the enetc_tx_onestep_tstamp() work item runs in
process context, therefore with softirqs enabled (i.o.w., it can be
interrupted by a softirq). If we hold the netif_tx_lock() when there is
an interrupt, and the NET_TX softirq then gets scheduled, this will take
the netif_tx_lock() a second time and deadlock the kernel.
To solve this, use netif_tx_lock_bh(), which blocks softirqs from
running. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: timer: Don't take register_mutex with copy_from/to_user()
The infamous mmap_lock taken in copy_from/to_user() can be often
problematic when it's called inside another mutex, as they might lead
to deadlocks.
In the case of ALSA timer code, the bad pattern is with
guard(mutex)(®ister_mutex) that covers copy_from/to_user() -- which
was mistakenly introduced at converting to guard(), and it had been
carefully worked around in the past.
This patch fixes those pieces simply by moving copy_from/to_user() out
of the register mutex lock again. |

What happens is the following:
1) The cleaner kthread tries to start a transaction to delete an unused
block group, but the metadata reservation can not be satisfied right
away, so a reservation ticket is created and it starts the async
metadata reclaim task (fs_info->async_reclaim_work);
2) Writeback for all the filler inodes with an i_size of 2K starts
(generic/562 creates a lot of 2K files with the goal of filling
metadata space). We try to create an inline extent for them, but we
fail when trying to insert the inline extent with -ENOSPC (at
cow_file_range_inline()) - since this is not critical, we fallback
to non-inline mode (back to cow_file_range()), reserve extents

crypto: pcrypt - Fix hungtask for PADATA_RESET
We found a hungtask bug in test_aead_vec_cfg as follows:

Kernel panic - not syncing: hung_task: blocked tasks
For padata_do_parallel, when the return err is 0 or -EBUSY, it will call
wait_for_completion(&wait->completion) in test_aead_vec_cfg. In normal
case, aead_request_complete() will be called in pcrypt_aead_serial and the
return err is 0 for padata_do_parallel. But, when pinst->flags is
PADATA_RESET, the return err is -EBUSY for padata_do_parallel, and it
won't call aead_request_complete(). Therefore, test_aead_vec_cfg will
hung at wait_for_completion(&wait->completion), which will cause
hungtask.
The problem comes as following:
(padata_do_parallel) |
rcu_read_lock_bh(); |
err = -EINVAL; | (padata_replace)
| pinst->flags |= PADATA_RESET;
err = -EBUSY |
if (pinst->flags & PADATA_RESET) |
rcu_read_unlock_bh() |
return err
In order to resolve the problem, we replace the return err -EBUSY with
-EAGAIN, which means parallel_data is changing, and the caller should call
it again.
v3:
remove retry and just change the return err.
v2:
introduce padata_try_do_parallel() in pcrypt_aead_encrypt and
pcrypt_aead_decrypt to solve the hungtask. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
debugfs: fix wait/cancellation handling during remove
Ben Greear further reports deadlocks during concurrent debugfs
remove while files are being accessed, even though the code in
question now uses debugfs cancellations. Turns out that despite
all the review on the locking, we missed completely that the
logic is wrong: if the refcount hits zero we can finish (and
need not wait for the completion), but if it doesn't we have
to trigger all the cancellations. As written, we can _never_
get into the loop triggering the cancellations. Fix this, and
explain it better while at it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Defer work in bpf_timer_cancel_and_free
Currently, the same case as previous patch (two timer callbacks trying
to cancel each other) can be invoked through bpf_map_update_elem as
well, or more precisely, freeing map elements containing timers. Since
this relies on hrtimer_cancel as well, it is prone to the same deadlock
situation as the previous patch.
It would be sufficient to use hrtimer_try_to_cancel to fix this problem,
as the timer cannot be enqueued after async_cancel_and_free. Once
async_cancel_and_free has been done, the timer must be reinitialized
before it can be armed again. The callback running in parallel trying to
arm the timer will fail, and freeing bpf_hrtimer without waiting is
sufficient (given kfree_rcu), and bpf_timer_cb will return
HRTIMER_NORESTART, preventing the timer from being rearmed again.
However, there exists a UAF scenario where the callback arms the timer
before entering this function, such that if cancellation fails (due to
timer callback invoking this routine, or the target timer callback
running concurrently). In such a case, if the timer expiration is
significantly far in the future, the RCU grace period expiration
happening before it will free the bpf_hrtimer state and along with it
the struct hrtimer, that is enqueued.
Hence, it is clear cancellation needs to occur after
async_cancel_and_free, and yet it cannot be done inline due to deadlock
issues. We thus modify bpf_timer_cancel_and_free to defer work to the
global workqueue, adding a work_struct alongside rcu_head (both used at
_different_ points of time, so can share space).
Update existing code comments to reflect the new state of affairs. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: sch_taprio: properly cancel timer from taprio_destroy()
There is a comment in qdisc_create() about us not calling ops->reset()
in some cases.
err_out4:
/*
* Any broken qdiscs that would require a ops->reset() here?
* The qdisc was never in action so it shouldn't be necessary.
*/
As taprio sets a timer before actually receiving a packet, we need
to cancel it from ops->destroy, just in case ops->reset has not
been called.

stackdepot: fix stack_depot_save_flags() in NMI context
Per documentation, stack_depot_save_flags() was meant to be usable from
NMI context if STACK_DEPOT_FLAG_CAN_ALLOC is unset. However, it still
would try to take the pool_lock in an attempt to save a stack trace in the
current pool (if space is available).
This could result in deadlock if an NMI is handled while pool_lock is
already held. To avoid deadlock, only try to take the lock in NMI context
and give up if unsuccessful.
The documentation is fixed to clearly convey this. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: phy: Don't register LEDs for genphy
If a PHY has no driver, the genphy driver is probed/removed directly in
phy_attach/detach. If the PHY's ofnode has an "leds" subnode, then the
LEDs will be (un)registered when probing/removing the genphy driver.
This could occur if the leds are for a non-generic driver that isn't
loaded for whatever reason. Synchronously removing the PHY device in
phy_detach leads to the following deadlock:
rtnl_lock()
ndo_close()
...
phy_detach()
phy_remove()
phy_leds_unregister()
led_classdev_unregister()
led_trigger_set()
netdev_trigger_deactivate()
unregister_netdevice_notifier()
rtnl_lock()
There is a corresponding deadlock on the open/register side of things
(and that one is reported by lockdep), but it requires a race while this
one is deterministic.
Generic PHYs do not support LEDs anyway, so don't bother registering
them. |

is trying to acquire [3](&bdev->bd_size_lock) at set_capacity() call.
In this situation an attempt to acquire [4]lock(&d->lock) from
aoecmd_cfg_rsp() will lead to deadlock.
So the simplest solution is breaking lock dependency
[2](&d->lock) -> [3](&bdev->bd_size_lock) by moving set_capacity()
outside. |
| A Deadlock vulnerability in the packet forwarding engine (PFE) of Juniper Networks Junos OS on SRX Series allows an unauthenticated, network-based attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS).
When a large amount of traffic is processed by ATP Cloud inspection, a deadlock can occur which will result in a PFE crash and restart. Whether the crash occurs, depends on system internal timing that is outside the attackers control.
This issue affects Junos OS on SRX Series:
* All versions before 21.3R3-S1,
* 21.4 versions before 21.4R3,
* 22.1 versions before 22.1R2,
* 22.2 versions before 22.2R1-S2, 22.2R2. |
