In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm: fix use-after-free on probe deferral
The bridge counter was never reset when tearing down the DRM device so
that stale pointers to deallocated structures would be accessed on the
next tear down (e.g. after a second late bind deferral).
Given enough bridges and a few probe deferrals this could currently also
lead to data beyond the bridge array being corrupted.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
coresight: cti: Fix hang in cti_disable_hw()
cti_enable_hw() and cti_disable_hw() are called from an atomic context
so shouldn't use runtime PM because it can result in a sleep when
communicating with firmware.
Since commit 3c6656337852 ("Revert "firmware: arm_scmi: Add clock
management to the SCMI power domain""), this causes a hang on Juno when
running the Perf Coresight tests or running this command:
perf record -e cs_etm//u -- ls
This was also missed until the revert commit because pm_runtime_put()
was called with the wrong device until commit 692c9a499b28 ("coresight:
cti: Correct the parameter for pm_runtime_put")
With lock and scheduler debugging enabled the following is output:
coresight cti_sys0: cti_enable_hw -- dev:cti_sys0 parent: 20020000.cti

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Propagate error from htab_lock_bucket() to userspace
In __htab_map_lookup_and_delete_batch() if htab_lock_bucket() returns
-EBUSY, it will go to next bucket. Going to next bucket may not only
skip the elements in current bucket silently, but also incur
out-of-bound memory access or expose kernel memory to userspace if
current bucket_cnt is greater than bucket_size or zero.
Fixing it by stopping batch operation and returning -EBUSY when
htab_lock_bucket() fails, and the application can retry or skip the busy
batch as needed. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/mipi-dsi: Detach devices when removing the host
Whenever the MIPI-DSI host is unregistered, the code of
mipi_dsi_host_unregister() loops over every device currently found on that
bus and will unregister it.
However, it doesn't detach it from the bus first, which leads to all kind
of resource leaks if the host wants to perform some clean up whenever a
device is detached. |

Now that BIC2 points to bfqq3, while bfqq2 and bfqq3 both point to BIC2.
If all the requests are completed, and Process 2 exit, BIC2 will be
freed while there is no guarantee that bfqq2 will be freed before BIC2.
Fix the problem by clearing bfqq->bic while bfqq is detached from bic. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: Protect against send buffer overflow in NFSv3 READDIR
Since before the git era, NFSD has conserved the number of pages
held by each nfsd thread by combining the RPC receive and send
buffers into a single array of pages. This works because there are
no cases where an operation needs a large RPC Call message and a
large RPC Reply message at the same time.
Once an RPC Call has been received, svc_process() updates
svc_rqst::rq_res to describe the part of rq_pages that can be
used for constructing the Reply. This means that the send buffer
(rq_res) shrinks when the received RPC record containing the RPC
Call is large.
A client can force this shrinkage on TCP by sending a correctly-
formed RPC Call header contained in an RPC record that is
excessively large. The full maximum payload size cannot be
constructed in that case.
Thanks to Aleksi Illikainen and Kari Hulkko for uncovering this
issue. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ethernet: ti: Fix return type of netcp_ndo_start_xmit()
With clang's kernel control flow integrity (kCFI, CONFIG_CFI_CLANG),
indirect call targets are validated against the expected function
pointer prototype to make sure the call target is valid to help mitigate
ROP attacks. If they are not identical, there is a failure at run time,
which manifests as either a kernel panic or thread getting killed. A
proposed warning in clang aims to catch these at compile time, which
reveals:
drivers/net/ethernet/ti/netcp_core.c:1944:21: error: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'netdev_tx_t (*)(struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)' (aka 'enum netdev_tx (*)(struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)') with an expression of type 'int (struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)' [-Werror,-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict]
.ndo_start_xmit = netcp_ndo_start_xmit,
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
->ndo_start_xmit() in 'struct net_device_ops' expects a return type of
'netdev_tx_t', not 'int'. Adjust the return type of
netcp_ndo_start_xmit() to match the prototype's to resolve the warning
and CFI failure. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: add EXT4_IGET_BAD flag to prevent unexpected bad inode
There are many places that will get unhappy (and crash) when ext4_iget()
returns a bad inode. However, if iget the boot loader inode, allows a bad
inode to be returned, because the inode may not be initialized. This
mechanism can be used to bypass some checks and cause panic. To solve this
problem, we add a special iget flag EXT4_IGET_BAD. Only with this flag
we'd be returning bad inode from ext4_iget(), otherwise we always return
the error code if the inode is bad inode.(suggested by Jan Kara) |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: Fix potential memory leaks
When the driver hits -ENOMEM at allocating a URB or a buffer, it
aborts and goes to the error path that releases the all previously
allocated resources. However, when -ENOMEM hits at the middle of the
sync EP URB allocation loop, the partially allocated URBs might be
left without released, because ep->nurbs is still zero at that point.
Fix it by setting ep->nurbs at first, so that the error handler loops
over the full URB list. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: enetc: avoid buffer leaks on xdp_do_redirect() failure
Before enetc_clean_rx_ring_xdp() calls xdp_do_redirect(), each software
BD in the RX ring between index orig_i and i can have one of 2 refcount
values on its page.
We are the owner of the current buffer that is being processed, so the
refcount will be at least 1.
If the current owner of the buffer at the diametrically opposed index
in the RX ring (i.o.w, the other half of this page) has not yet called
kfree(), this page's refcount could even be 2.
enetc_page_reusable() in enetc_flip_rx_buff() tests for the page
refcount against 1, and [ if it's 2 ] does not attempt to reuse it.
But if enetc_flip_rx_buff() is put after the xdp_do_redirect() call,
the page refcount can have one of 3 values. It can also be 0, if there
is no owner of the other page half, and xdp_do_redirect() for this
buffer ran so far that it triggered a flush of the devmap/cpumap bulk
queue, and the consumers of those bulk queues also freed the buffer,
all by the time xdp_do_redirect() returns the execution back to enetc.
This is the reason why enetc_flip_rx_buff() is called before
xdp_do_redirect(), but there is a big flaw with that reasoning:
enetc_flip_rx_buff() will set rx_swbd->page = NULL on both sides of the
enetc_page_reusable() branch, and if xdp_do_redirect() returns an error,
we call enetc_xdp_free(), which does not deal gracefully with that.
In fact, what happens is quite special. The page refcounts start as 1.
enetc_flip_rx_buff() figures they're reusable, transfers these
rx_swbd->page pointers to a different rx_swbd in enetc_reuse_page(), and
bumps the refcount to 2. When xdp_do_redirect() later returns an error,
we call the no-op enetc_xdp_free(), but we still haven't lost the
reference to that page. A copy of it is still at rx_ring->next_to_alloc,
but that has refcount 2 (and there are no concurrent owners of it in
flight, to drop the refcount). What really kills the system is when
we'll flip the rx_swbd->page the second time around. With an updated
refcount of 2, the page will not be reusable and we'll really leak it.
Then enetc_new_page() will have to allocate more pages, which will then
eventually leak again on further errors from xdp_do_redirect().
The problem, summarized, is that we zeroize rx_swbd->page before we're
completely done with it, and this makes it impossible for the error path
to do something with it.
Since the packet is potentially multi-buffer and therefore the
rx_swbd->page is potentially an array, manual passing of the old
pointers between enetc_flip_rx_buff() and enetc_xdp_free() is a bit
difficult.
For the sake of going with a simple solution, we accept the possibility
of racing with xdp_do_redirect(), and we move the flip procedure to
execute only on the redirect success path. By racing, I mean that the
page may be deemed as not reusable by enetc (having a refcount of 0),
but there will be no leak in that case, either.
Once we accept that, we have something better to do with buffers on
XDP_REDIRECT failure. Since we haven't performed half-page flipping yet,
we won't, either (and this way, we can avoid enetc_xdp_free()
completely, which gives the entire page to the slab allocator).
Instead, we'll call enetc_xdp_drop(), which will recycle this half of
the buffer back to the RX ring. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/vt-d: Clean up si_domain in the init_dmars() error path
A splat from kmem_cache_destroy() was seen with a kernel prior to
commit ee2653bbe89d ("iommu/vt-d: Remove domain and devinfo mempool")
when there was a failure in init_dmars(), because the iommu_domain
cache still had objects. While the mempool code is now gone, there
still is a leak of the si_domain memory if init_dmars() fails. So
clean up si_domain in the init_dmars() error path. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cxl: fix possible null-ptr-deref in cxl_guest_init_afu|adapter()
If device_register() fails in cxl_register_afu|adapter(), the device
is not added, device_unregister() can not be called in the error path,
otherwise it will cause a null-ptr-deref because of removing not added
device.
As comment of device_register() says, it should use put_device() to give
up the reference in the error path. So split device_unregister() into
device_del() and put_device(), then goes to put dev when register fails. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
memory: pl353-smc: Fix refcount leak bug in pl353_smc_probe()
The break of for_each_available_child_of_node() needs a
corresponding of_node_put() when the reference 'child' is not
used anymore. Here we do not need to call of_node_put() in
fail path as '!match' means no break.
While the of_platform_device_create() will created a new
reference by 'child' but it has considered the refcounting. |

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix shift-out-of-bounds/overflow in nilfs_sb2_bad_offset()
Patch series "nilfs2: fix UBSAN shift-out-of-bounds warnings on mount
time".
The first patch fixes a bug reported by syzbot, and the second one fixes
the remaining bug of the same kind. Although they are triggered by the
same super block data anomaly, I divided it into the above two because the
details of the issues and how to fix it are different.
Both are required to eliminate the shift-out-of-bounds issues at mount
time.
This patch (of 2):
If the block size exponent information written in an on-disk superblock is
corrupted, nilfs_sb2_bad_offset helper function can trigger
shift-out-of-bounds warning followed by a kernel panic (if panic_on_warn
is set):
shift exponent 38983 is too large for 64-bit type 'unsigned long long'

In addition, since nilfs_sb2_bad_offset() performs multiplication without

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntb_netdev: Use dev_kfree_skb_any() in interrupt context
TX/RX callback handlers (ntb_netdev_tx_handler(),
ntb_netdev_rx_handler()) can be called in interrupt
context via the DMA framework when the respective
DMA operations have completed. As such, any calls
by these routines to free skb's, should use the
interrupt context safe dev_kfree_skb_any() function.
Previously, these callback handlers would call the
interrupt unsafe version of dev_kfree_skb(). This has
not presented an issue on Intel IOAT DMA engines as
that driver utilizes tasklets rather than a hard
interrupt handler, like the AMD PTDMA DMA driver.
On AMD systems, a kernel WARNING message is
encountered, which is being issued from
skb_release_head_state() due to in_hardirq()
being true.
Besides the user visible WARNING from the kernel,
the other symptom of this bug was that TCP/IP performance
across the ntb_netdev interface was very poor, i.e.
approximately an order of magnitude below what was
expected. With the repair to use dev_kfree_skb_any(),
kernel WARNINGs from skb_release_head_state() ceased
and TCP/IP performance, as measured by iperf, was on
par with expected results, approximately 20 Gb/s on
AMD Milan based server. Note that this performance
is comparable with Intel based servers. |

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
macintosh: fix possible memory leak in macio_add_one_device()
Afer commit 1fa5ae857bb1 ("driver core: get rid of struct device's
bus_id string array"), the name of device is allocated dynamically. It
needs to be freed when of_device_register() fails. Call put_device() to
give up the reference that's taken in device_initialize(), so that it
can be freed in kobject_cleanup() when the refcount hits 0.
macio device is freed in macio_release_dev(), so the kfree() can be
removed. |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cpufreq: Init completion before kobject_init_and_add()
In cpufreq_policy_alloc(), it will call uninitialed completion in
cpufreq_sysfs_release() when kobject_init_and_add() fails. And
that will cause a crash such as the following page fault in complete:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: fffffffffffffff8
