| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: asix: add proper error handling of usb read errors
Syzbot once again hit uninit value in asix driver. The problem still the
same -- asix_read_cmd() reads less bytes, than was requested by caller.
Since all read requests are performed via asix_read_cmd() let's catch
usb related error there and add __must_check notation to be sure all
callers actually check return value.
So, this patch adds sanity check inside asix_read_cmd(), that simply
checks if bytes read are not less, than was requested and adds missing
error handling of asix_read_cmd() all across the driver code. |

ptp: unregister virtual clocks when unregistering physical clock.
When unregistering a physical clock which has some virtual clocks,
unregister the virtual clocks with it.
This fixes the following oops, which can be triggered by unloading
a driver providing a PTP clock when it has enabled virtual clocks:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
exec: Force single empty string when argv is empty
Quoting[1] Ariadne Conill:
"In several other operating systems, it is a hard requirement that the
second argument to execve(2) be the name of a program, thus prohibiting
a scenario where argc < 1. POSIX 2017 also recommends this behaviour,
but it is not an explicit requirement[2]:
The argument arg0 should point to a filename string that is
associated with the process being started by one of the exec
functions.
...
Interestingly, Michael Kerrisk opened an issue about this in 2008[3],
but there was no consensus to support fixing this issue then.
Hopefully now that CVE-2021-4034 shows practical exploitative use[4]
of this bug in a shellcode, we can reconsider.
This issue is being tracked in the KSPP issue tracker[5]."
While the initial code searches[6][7] turned up what appeared to be
mostly corner case tests, trying to that just reject argv == NULL
(or an immediately terminated pointer list) quickly started tripping[8]
existing userspace programs.
The next best approach is forcing a single empty string into argv and
adjusting argc to match. The number of programs depending on argc == 0
seems a smaller set than those calling execve with a NULL argv.
Account for the additional stack space in bprm_stack_limits(). Inject an
empty string when argc == 0 (and set argc = 1). Warn about the case so
userspace has some notice about the change:
process './argc0' launched './argc0' with NULL argv: empty string added
Additionally WARN() and reject NULL argv usage for kernel threads.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: core: use sysfs_emit() instead of sprintf()
sprintf() (still used in the MMC core for the sysfs output) is vulnerable
to the buffer overflow. Use the new-fangled sysfs_emit() instead.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with the SVACE static
analysis tool. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: dwc3: host: Stop setting the ACPI companion
It is no longer needed. The sysdev pointer is now used when
assigning the ACPI companions to the xHCI ports and USB
devices.
Assigning the ACPI companion here resulted in the
fwnode->secondary pointer to be replaced also for the parent
dwc3 device since the primary fwnode (the ACPI companion)
was shared. That was unintentional and it created potential
side effects like resource leaks. |

The intent of the verifcation done in check_flush_depedency is to ensure
forward progress during memory reclaim, by flagging cases when either a
memory reclaim process, or a memory reclaim work item is flushed from a
context not marked as memory reclaim safe.
This is correct when flushing, but when called from the
cancel(_delayed)_work_sync() paths it is a false positive because work is
either already running, or will not be running at all. Therefore
cancelling it is safe and we can relax the warning criteria by letting the
helper know of the calling context.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
epoll: be better about file lifetimes
epoll can call out to vfs_poll() with a file pointer that may race with
the last 'fput()'. That would make f_count go down to zero, and while
the ep->mtx locking means that the resulting file pointer tear-down will
be blocked until the poll returns, it means that f_count is already
dead, and any use of it won't actually get a reference to the file any
more: it's dead regardless.
Make sure we have a valid ref on the file pointer before we call down to
vfs_poll() from the epoll routines. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: micrel: Fix receiving the timestamp in the frame for lan8841
The blamed commit started to use the ptp workqueue to get the second
part of the timestamp. And when the port was set down, then this
workqueue is stopped. But if the config option NETWORK_PHY_TIMESTAMPING
is not enabled, then the ptp_clock is not initialized so then it would
crash when it would try to access the delayed work.
So then basically by setting up and then down the port, it would crash.
The fix consists in checking if the ptp_clock is initialized and only
then cancel the delayed work. |

crypto: bcm - Fix pointer arithmetic
In spu2_dump_omd() value of ptr is increased by ciph_key_len
instead of hash_iv_len which could lead to going beyond the
buffer boundaries.
Fix this bug by changing ciph_key_len to hash_iv_len.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Add BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SKB attach type enforcement in BPF_LINK_CREATE
bpf_prog_attach uses attach_type_to_prog_type to enforce proper
attach type for BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SKB. link_create uses
bpf_prog_get and relies on bpf_prog_attach_check_attach_type
to properly verify prog_type <> attach_type association.
Add missing attach_type enforcement for the link_create case.
Otherwise, it's currently possible to attach cgroup_skb prog
types to other cgroup hooks. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: openvswitch: fix overwriting ct original tuple for ICMPv6
OVS_PACKET_CMD_EXECUTE has 3 main attributes:
- OVS_PACKET_ATTR_KEY - Packet metadata in a netlink format.
- OVS_PACKET_ATTR_PACKET - Binary packet content.
- OVS_PACKET_ATTR_ACTIONS - Actions to execute on the packet.
OVS_PACKET_ATTR_KEY is parsed first to populate sw_flow_key structure
with the metadata like conntrack state, input port, recirculation id,
etc. Then the packet itself gets parsed to populate the rest of the
keys from the packet headers.
Whenever the packet parsing code starts parsing the ICMPv6 header, it
first zeroes out fields in the key corresponding to Neighbor Discovery
information even if it is not an ND packet.
It is an 'ipv6.nd' field. However, the 'ipv6' is a union that shares
the space between 'nd' and 'ct_orig' that holds the original tuple
conntrack metadata parsed from the OVS_PACKET_ATTR_KEY.
ND packets should not normally have conntrack state, so it's fine to
share the space, but normal ICMPv6 Echo packets or maybe other types of
ICMPv6 can have the state attached and it should not be overwritten.
The issue results in all but the last 4 bytes of the destination
address being wiped from the original conntrack tuple leading to
incorrect packet matching and potentially executing wrong actions
in case this packet recirculates within the datapath or goes back
to userspace.
ND fields should not be accessed in non-ND packets, so not clearing
them should be fine. Executing memset() only for actual ND packets to
avoid the issue.
Initializing the whole thing before parsing is needed because ND packet
may not contain all the options.
The issue only affects the OVS_PACKET_CMD_EXECUTE path and doesn't
affect packets entering OVS datapath from network interfaces, because
in this case CT metadata is populated from skb after the packet is
already parsed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/rxe: Fix seg fault in rxe_comp_queue_pkt
In rxe_comp_queue_pkt() an incoming response packet skb is enqueued to the
resp_pkts queue and then a decision is made whether to run the completer
task inline or schedule it. Finally the skb is dereferenced to bump a 'hw'
performance counter. This is wrong because if the completer task is
already running in a separate thread it may have already processed the skb
and freed it which can cause a seg fault. This has been observed
infrequently in testing at high scale.
This patch fixes this by changing the order of enqueuing the packet until
after the counter is accessed. |
| A null pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel API for the cryptographic algorithm scatterwalk functionality. This issue occurs when a user constructs a malicious packet with specific socket configuration, which could allow a local user to crash the system or escalate their privileges on the system. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: cfg80211: clear link ID from bitmap during link delete after clean up
Currently, during link deletion, the link ID is first removed from the
valid_links bitmap before performing any clean-up operations. However, some
functions require the link ID to remain in the valid_links bitmap. One
such example is cfg80211_cac_event(). The flow is -
nl80211_remove_link()
cfg80211_remove_link()
ieee80211_del_intf_link()
ieee80211_vif_set_links()
ieee80211_vif_update_links()
ieee80211_link_stop()
cfg80211_cac_event()
cfg80211_cac_event() requires link ID to be present but it is cleared
already in cfg80211_remove_link(). Ultimately, WARN_ON() is hit.
Therefore, clear the link ID from the bitmap only after completing the link
clean-up. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: iso: Always release hdev at the end of iso_listen_bis
Since hci_get_route holds the device before returning, the hdev
should be released with hci_dev_put at the end of iso_listen_bis
even if the function returns with an error. |

PCI: imx6: Fix suspend/resume support on i.MX6QDL
The suspend/resume functionality is currently broken on the i.MX6QDL
platform, as documented in the NXP errata (ERR005723):
https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/errata/IMX6DQCE.pdf
This patch addresses the issue by sharing most of the suspend/resume
sequences used by other i.MX devices, while avoiding modifications to
critical registers that disrupt the PCIe functionality. It targets the
same problem as the following downstream commit:
https://github.com/nxp-imx/linux-imx/commit/4e92355e1f79d225ea842511fcfd42b343b32995
Unlike the downstream commit, this patch also resets the connected PCIe
device if possible. Without this reset, certain drivers, such as ath10k
or iwlwifi, will crash on resume. The device reset is also done by the
driver on other i.MX platforms, making this patch consistent with
existing practices.
Upon resuming, the kernel will hang and display an error. Here's an
example of the error encountered with the ath10k driver:
ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: Unable to change power state from D3hot to D0, device inaccessible
Unhandled fault: imprecise external abort (0x1406) at 0x0106f944
Without this patch, suspend/resume will fail on i.MX6QDL devices if a
PCIe device is connected.

afs: Fix the maximum cell name length
The kafs filesystem limits the maximum length of a cell to 256 bytes, but a
problem occurs if someone actually does that: kafs tries to create a
directory under /proc/net/afs/ with the name of the cell, but that fails
with a warning:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 9 at fs/proc/generic.c:405
because procfs limits the maximum filename length to 255.
However, the DNS limits the maximum lookup length and, by extension, the
maximum cell name, to 255 less two (length count and trailing NUL).
Fix this by limiting the maximum acceptable cellname length to 253. This
also allows us to be sure we can create the "/afs/.<cell>/" mountpoint too.
Further, split the YFS VL record cell name maximum to be the 256 allowed by
the protocol and ignore the record retrieved by YFSVL.GetCellName if it
exceeds 253. |
