| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: DPCM: Don't pick up BE without substream
When DPCM tries to add valid BE connections at dpcm_add_paths(), it
doesn't check whether the picked BE actually supports for the given
stream direction. Due to that, when an asymmetric BE stream is
present, it picks up wrongly and this may result in a NULL dereference
at a later point where the code assumes the existence of a
corresponding BE substream.
This patch adds the check for the presence of the substream for the
target BE for avoiding the problem above.
Note that we have already some fix for non-existing BE substream at
commit 6246f283d5e0 ("ASoC: dpcm: skip missing substream while
applying symmetry"). But the code path we've hit recently is rather
happening before the previous fix. So this patch tries to fix at
picking up a BE instead of parsing BE lists. |

Fix possible NULL pointer dereference, due to freeing of adapter->vf_res
in iavf_init_get_resources. Previous commit introduced a regression,
where receiving IAVF_ERR_ADMIN_QUEUE_NO_WORK from iavf_get_vf_config

ethtool_ops can be called. Calling iavf_get_link_ksettings with no vf_res,

vdpa_sim_blk: set number of address spaces and virtqueue groups
Commit bda324fd037a ("vdpasim: control virtqueue support") added two
new fields (nas, ngroups) to vdpasim_dev_attr, but we forgot to
initialize them for vdpa_sim_blk.
When creating a new vdpa_sim_blk device this causes the kernel
to panic in this way:
$ vdpa dev add mgmtdev vdpasim_blk name blk0
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000030

net: dsa: felix: suppress non-changes to the tagging protocol
The way in which dsa_tree_change_tag_proto() works is that when
dsa_tree_notify() fails, it doesn't know whether the operation failed
mid way in a multi-switch tree, or it failed for a single-switch tree.
So even though drivers need to fail cleanly in
ds->ops->change_tag_protocol(), DSA will still call dsa_tree_notify()
again, to restore the old tag protocol for potential switches in the
tree where the change did succeeed (before failing for others).
This means for the felix driver that if we report an error in
felix_change_tag_protocol(), we'll get another call where proto_ops ==
old_proto_ops. If we proceed to act upon that, we may do unexpected
things. For example, we will call dsa_tag_8021q_register() twice in a
row, without any dsa_tag_8021q_unregister() in between. Then we will
actually call dsa_tag_8021q_unregister() via old_proto_ops->teardown,
which (if it manages to run at all, after walking through corrupted data
structures) will leave the ports inoperational anyway.
The bug can be readily reproduced if we force an error while in
tag_8021q mode; this crashes the kernel.

usb: xhci: Fix invalid pointer dereference in Etron workaround
This check is performed before prepare_transfer() and prepare_ring(), so
enqueue can already point at the final link TRB of a segment. And indeed
it will, some 0.4% of times this code is called.
Then enqueue + 1 is an invalid pointer. It will crash the kernel right
away or load some junk which may look like a link TRB and cause the real
link TRB to be replaced with a NOOP. This wouldn't end well.
Use a functionally equivalent test which doesn't dereference the pointer
and always gives correct result.
Something has crashed my machine twice in recent days while playing with
an Etron HC, and a control transfer stress test ran for confirmation has
just crashed it again. The same test passes with this patch applied. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
LoongArch: Return NULL from huge_pte_offset() for invalid PMD
LoongArch's huge_pte_offset() currently returns a pointer to a PMD slot
even if the underlying entry points to invalid_pte_table (indicating no
mapping). Callers like smaps_hugetlb_range() fetch this invalid entry
value (the address of invalid_pte_table) via this pointer.
The generic is_swap_pte() check then incorrectly identifies this address
as a swap entry on LoongArch, because it satisfies the "!pte_present()
&& !pte_none()" conditions. This misinterpretation, combined with a
coincidental match by is_migration_entry() on the address bits, leads to
kernel crashes in pfn_swap_entry_to_page().
Fix this at the architecture level by modifying huge_pte_offset() to
check the PMD entry's content using pmd_none() before returning. If the
entry is invalid (i.e., it points to invalid_pte_table), return NULL
instead of the pointer to the slot. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xen-netfront: handle NULL returned by xdp_convert_buff_to_frame()
The function xdp_convert_buff_to_frame() may return NULL if it fails
to correctly convert the XDP buffer into an XDP frame due to memory
constraints, internal errors, or invalid data. Failing to check for NULL
may lead to a NULL pointer dereference if the result is used later in
processing, potentially causing crashes, data corruption, or undefined
behavior.
On XDP redirect failure, the associated page must be released explicitly
if it was previously retained via get_page(). Failing to do so may result
in a memory leak, as the pages reference count is not decremented. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched/eevdf: Fix se->slice being set to U64_MAX and resulting crash
There is a code path in dequeue_entities() that can set the slice of a
sched_entity to U64_MAX, which sometimes results in a crash.
The offending case is when dequeue_entities() is called to dequeue a
delayed group entity, and then the entity's parent's dequeue is delayed.
In that case:
1. In the if (entity_is_task(se)) else block at the beginning of
dequeue_entities(), slice is set to
cfs_rq_min_slice(group_cfs_rq(se)). If the entity was delayed, then
it has no queued tasks, so cfs_rq_min_slice() returns U64_MAX.
2. The first for_each_sched_entity() loop dequeues the entity.
3. If the entity was its parent's only child, then the next iteration
tries to dequeue the parent.
4. If the parent's dequeue needs to be delayed, then it breaks from the
first for_each_sched_entity() loop _without updating slice_.
5. The second for_each_sched_entity() loop sets the parent's ->slice to
the saved slice, which is still U64_MAX.
This throws off subsequent calculations with potentially catastrophic
results. A manifestation we saw in production was:
6. In update_entity_lag(), se->slice is used to calculate limit, which
ends up as a huge negative number.
7. limit is used in se->vlag = clamp(vlag, -limit, limit). Because limit
is negative, vlag > limit, so se->vlag is set to the same huge
negative number.
8. In place_entity(), se->vlag is scaled, which overflows and results in
another huge (positive or negative) number.
9. The adjusted lag is subtracted from se->vruntime, which increases or
decreases se->vruntime by a huge number.
10. pick_eevdf() calls entity_eligible()/vruntime_eligible(), which
incorrectly returns false because the vruntime is so far from the
other vruntimes on the queue, causing the
(vruntime - cfs_rq->min_vruntime) * load calulation to overflow.
11. Nothing appears to be eligible, so pick_eevdf() returns NULL.
12. pick_next_entity() tries to dereference the return value of
pick_eevdf() and crashes.
Dumping the cfs_rq states from the core dumps with drgn showed tell-tale
huge vruntime ranges and bogus vlag values, and I also traced se->slice
being set to U64_MAX on live systems (which was usually "benign" since
the rest of the runqueue needed to be in a particular state to crash).
Fix it in dequeue_entities() by always setting slice from the first
non-empty cfs_rq. |

The 1st line is the most interesting here:
BTRFS error (device sdc): zoned: write pointer offset mismatch of zones in raid1 profile
When a RAID1 block-group is created and a write pointer mismatch between
the disks in the RAID set is detected, btrfs sets the alloc_offset to the
length of the block group marking it as full. Afterwards the code expects
that a balance operation will evacuate the data in this block-group and
repair the problems.
But before this is possible, the new space of this block-group will be
accounted in the free space cache. But in __btrfs_

ext4: update s_journal_inum if it changes after journal replay
When mounting a crafted ext4 image, s_journal_inum may change after journal
replay, which is obviously unreasonable because we have successfully loaded
and replayed the journal through the old s_journal_inum. And the new
s_journal_inum bypasses some of the checks in ext4_get_journal(), which
may trigger a null pointer dereference problem. So if s_journal_inum
changes after the journal replay, we ignore the change, and rewrite the
current journal_inum to the superblock. |
