In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/kmemleak: avoid soft lockup in __kmemleak_do_cleanup()
A soft lockup warning was observed on a relative small system x86-64
system with 16 GB of memory when running a debug kernel with kmemleak
enabled.
watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#8 stuck for 33s! [kworker/8:1:134]
The test system was running a workload with hot unplug happening in
parallel. Then kemleak decided to disable itself due to its inability to
allocate more kmemleak objects. The debug kernel has its
CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_MEM_POOL_SIZE set to 40,000.
The soft lockup happened in kmemleak_do_cleanup() when the existing
kmemleak objects were being removed and deleted one-by-one in a loop via a
workqueue. In this particular case, there are at least 40,000 objects
that need to be processed and given the slowness of a debug kernel and the
fact that a raw_spinlock has to be acquired and released in
__delete_object(), it could take a while to properly handle all these
objects.
As kmemleak has been disabled in this case, the object removal and
deletion process can be further optimized as locking isn't really needed.
However, it is probably not worth the effort to optimize for such an edge
case that should rarely happen. So the simple solution is to call
cond_resched() at periodic interval in the iteration loop to avoid soft
lockup. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/kmemleak: avoid deadlock by moving pr_warn() outside kmemleak_lock
When netpoll is enabled, calling pr_warn_once() while holding
kmemleak_lock in mem_pool_alloc() can cause a deadlock due to lock
inversion with the netconsole subsystem. This occurs because
pr_warn_once() may trigger netpoll, which eventually leads to
__alloc_skb() and back into kmemleak code, attempting to reacquire
kmemleak_lock.
This is the path for the deadlock.
mem_pool_alloc()
-> raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&kmemleak_lock, flags);
-> pr_warn_once()
-> netconsole subsystem
-> netpoll
-> __alloc_skb
-> __create_object
-> raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&kmemleak_lock, flags);
Fix this by setting a flag and issuing the pr_warn_once() after
kmemleak_lock is released. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Revert "fs/ntfs3: Replace inode_trylock with inode_lock"
This reverts commit 69505fe98f198ee813898cbcaf6770949636430b.
Initially, conditional lock acquisition was removed to fix an xfstest bug
that was observed during internal testing. The deadlock reported by syzbot
is resolved by reintroducing conditional acquisition. The xfstest bug no
longer occurs on kernel version 6.16-rc1 during internal testing. I
assume that changes in other modules may have contributed to this. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
team: replace team lock with rtnl lock
syszbot reports various ordering issues for lower instance locks and
team lock. Switch to using rtnl lock for protecting team device,
similar to bonding. Based on the patch by Tetsuo Handa. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath11k: fix sleeping-in-atomic in ath11k_mac_op_set_bitrate_mask()
ath11k_mac_disable_peer_fixed_rate() is passed as the iterator to
ieee80211_iterate_stations_atomic(). Note in this case the iterator is
required to be atomic, however ath11k_mac_disable_peer_fixed_rate() does
not follow it as it might sleep. Consequently below warning is seen:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: 8250: fix panic due to PSLVERR
When the PSLVERR_RESP_EN parameter is set to 1, the device generates
an error response if an attempt is made to read an empty RBR (Receive
Buffer Register) while the FIFO is enabled.
In serial8250_do_startup(), calling serial_port_out(port, UART_LCR,
UART_LCR_WLEN8) triggers dw8250_check_lcr(), which invokes
dw8250_force_idle() and serial8250_clear_and_reinit_fifos(). The latter
function enables the FIFO via serial_out(p, UART_FCR, p->fcr).
Execution proceeds to the serial_port_in(port, UART_RX).
This satisfies the PSLVERR trigger condition.
When another CPU (e.g., using printk()) is accessing the UART (UART
is busy), the current CPU fails the check (value & ~UART_LCR_SPAR) ==
(lcr & ~UART_LCR_SPAR) in dw8250_check_lcr(), causing it to enter
dw8250_force_idle().
Put serial_port_out(port, UART_LCR, UART_LCR_WLEN8) under the port->lock
to fix this issue.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfs: Fix unbuffered write error handling
If all the subrequests in an unbuffered write stream fail, the subrequest
collector doesn't update the stream->transferred value and it retains its
initial LONG_MAX value. Unfortunately, if all active streams fail, then we
take the smallest value of { LONG_MAX, LONG_MAX, ... } as the value to set
in wreq->transferred - which is then returned from ->write_iter().
LONG_MAX was chosen as the initial value so that all the streams can be
quickly assessed by taking the smallest value of all stream->transferred -
but this only works if we've set any of them.
Fix this by adding a flag to indicate whether the value in
stream->transferred is valid and checking that when we integrate the
values. stream->transferred can then be initialised to zero.
This was found by running the generic/750 xfstest against cifs with
cache=none. It splices data to the target file. Once (if) it has used up
all the available scratch space, the writes start failing with ENOSPC.
This causes ->write_iter() to fail. However, it was returning
wreq->transferred, i.e. LONG_MAX, rather than an error (because it thought
the amount transferred was non-zero) and iter_file_splice_write() would
then try to clean up that amount of pipe bufferage - leading to an oops
when it overran. The kernel log showed:
CIFS: VFS: Send error in write = -28
followed by:

Also put a warning check into splice to announce if ->write_iter() returned
that it had written more than it was asked to. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: caam - Prevent crash on suspend with iMX8QM / iMX8ULP
Since the CAAM on these SoCs is managed by another ARM core, called the
SECO (Security Controller) on iMX8QM and Secure Enclave on iMX8ULP, which
also reserves access to register page 0 suspend operations cannot touch
this page.
This is similar to when running OPTEE, where OPTEE will reserve page 0.
Track this situation using a new state variable no_page0, reflecting if
page 0 is reserved elsewhere, either by other management cores in SoC or
by OPTEE.
Replace the optee_en check in suspend/resume with the new check.
optee_en cannot go away as it's needed elsewhere to gate OPTEE specific
situations.
Fixes the following splat at suspend:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: qat - flush misc workqueue during device shutdown
Repeated loading and unloading of a device specific QAT driver, for
example qat_4xxx, in a tight loop can lead to a crash due to a
use-after-free scenario. This occurs when a power management (PM)
interrupt triggers just before the device-specific driver (e.g.,
qat_4xxx.ko) is unloaded, while the core driver (intel_qat.ko) remains
loaded.
Since the driver uses a shared workqueue (`qat_misc_wq`) across all
devices and owned by intel_qat.ko, a deferred routine from the
device-specific driver may still be pending in the queue. If this
routine executes after the driver is unloaded, it can dereference freed
memory, resulting in a page fault and kernel crash like the following:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffa000002e50a01c
#PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
RIP: 0010:pm_bh_handler+0x1d2/0x250 [intel_qat]

ret_from_fork+0x2d/0x50
To prevent this, flush the misc workqueue during device shutdown to
ensure that all pending work items are completed before the driver is
unloaded.
Note: This approach may slightly increase shutdown latency if the
workqueue contains jobs from other devices, but it ensures correctness
and stability. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix refcount leak causing resource not released
When ksmbd_conn_releasing(opinfo->conn) returns true,the refcount was not
decremented properly, causing a refcount leak that prevents the count from
reaching zero and the memory from being released. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: imu: bno055: fix OOB access of hw_xlate array
Fix a potential out-of-bounds array access of the hw_xlate array in
bno055.c.
In bno055_get_regmask(), hw_xlate was iterated over the length of the
vals array instead of the length of the hw_xlate array. In the case of
bno055_gyr_scale, the vals array is larger than the hw_xlate array,
so this could result in an out-of-bounds access. In practice, this
shouldn't happen though because a match should always be found which
breaks out of the for loop before it iterates beyond the end of the
hw_xlate array.
By adding a new hw_xlate_len field to the bno055_sysfs_attr, we can be
sure we are iterating over the correct length. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vsock/virtio: Validate length in packet header before skb_put()
When receiving a vsock packet in the guest, only the virtqueue buffer
size is validated prior to virtio_vsock_skb_rx_put(). Unfortunately,
virtio_vsock_skb_rx_put() uses the length from the packet header as the
length argument to skb_put(), potentially resulting in SKB overflow if
the host has gone wonky.
Validate the length as advertised by the packet header before calling
virtio_vsock_skb_rx_put(). |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
open_tree_attr: do not allow id-mapping changes without OPEN_TREE_CLONE
As described in commit 7a54947e727b ('Merge patch series "fs: allow
changing idmappings"'), open_tree_attr(2) was necessary in order to
allow for a detached mount to be created and have its idmappings changed
without the risk of any racing threads operating on it. For this reason,
mount_setattr(2) still does not allow for id-mappings to be changed.
However, there was a bug in commit 2462651ffa76 ("fs: allow changing
idmappings") which allowed users to bypass this restriction by calling
open_tree_attr(2) *without* OPEN_TREE_CLONE.
can_idmap_mount() prevented this bug from allowing an attached
mountpoint's id-mapping from being modified (thanks to an is_anon_ns()
check), but this still allows for detached (but visible) mounts to have
their be id-mapping changed. This risks the same UAF and locking issues
as described in the merge commit, and was likely unintentional. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
parisc: Revise __get_user() to probe user read access
Because of the way read access support is implemented, read access
interruptions are only triggered at privilege levels 2 and 3. The
kernel executes at privilege level 0, so __get_user() never triggers
a read access interruption (code 26). Thus, it is currently possible
for user code to access a read protected address via a system call.
Fix this by probing read access rights at privilege level 3 (PRIV_USER)
and setting __gu_err to -EFAULT (-14) if access isn't allowed.
Note the cmpiclr instruction does a 32-bit compare because COND macro
doesn't work inside asm. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
parisc: Revise gateway LWS calls to probe user read access
We use load and stbys,e instructions to trigger memory reference
interruptions without writing to memory. Because of the way read
access support is implemented, read access interruptions are only
triggered at privilege levels 2 and 3. The kernel and gateway
page execute at privilege level 0, so this code never triggers
a read access interruption. Thus, it is currently possible for
user code to execute a LWS compare and swap operation at an
address that is read protected at privilege level 3 (PRIV_USER).
Fix this by probing read access rights at privilege level 3 and
branching to lws_fault if access isn't allowed. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: usbtv: Lock resolution while streaming
When an program is streaming (ffplay) and another program (qv4l2)
changes the TV standard from NTSC to PAL, the kernel crashes due to trying
to copy to unmapped memory.
Changing from NTSC to PAL increases the resolution in the usbtv struct,
but the video plane buffer isn't adjusted, so it overflows.
