| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm: memfd_luo: always dirty all folios
A dirty folio is one which has been written to. A clean folio is its
opposite. Since a clean folio has no user data, it can be freed under
memory pressure.
memfd preservation with LUO saves the flag at preserve(). This is
problematic. The folio might get dirtied later. Saving it at freeze()
also doesn't work, since the dirty bit from PTE is normally synced at
unmap and there might still be mappings of the file at freeze().
To see why this is a problem, say a folio is clean at preserve, but gets
dirtied later. The serialized state of the folio will mark it as clean.
After retrieve, the next kernel will see the folio as clean and might try
to reclaim it under memory pressure. This will result in losing user
data.
Mark all folios of the file as dirty, and always set the
MEMFD_LUO_FOLIO_DIRTY flag. This comes with the side effect of making all
clean folios un-reclaimable. This is a cost that has to be paid for
participants of live update. It is not expected to be a common use case
to preserve a lot of clean folios anyway.
Since the value of pfolio->flags is a constant now, drop the flags
variable and set it directly. |

i40e: Fix preempt count leak in napi poll tracepoint
Using get_cpu() in the tracepoint assignment causes an obvious preempt
count leak because nothing invokes put_cpu() to undo it:
softirq: huh, entered softirq 3 NET_RX with preempt_count 00000100, exited with 00000101?
This clearly has seen a lot of testing in the last 3+ years...
Use smp_processor_id() instead. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nstree: tighten permission checks for listing
Even privileged services should not necessarily be able to see other
privileged service's namespaces so they can't leak information to each
other. Use may_see_all_namespaces() helper that centralizes this policy
until the nstree adapts. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched_ext: Fix starvation of scx_enable() under fair-class saturation
During scx_enable(), the READY -> ENABLED task switching loop changes the
calling thread's sched_class from fair to ext. Since fair has higher
priority than ext, saturating fair-class workloads can indefinitely starve
the enable thread, hanging the system. This was introduced when the enable
path switched from preempt_disable() to scx_bypass() which doesn't protect
against fair-class starvation. Note that the original preempt_disable()
protection wasn't complete either - in partial switch modes, the calling
thread could still be starved after preempt_enable() as it may have been
switched to ext class.
Fix it by offloading the enable body to a dedicated system-wide RT
(SCHED_FIFO) kthread which cannot be starved by either fair or ext class
tasks. scx_enable() lazily creates the kthread on first use and passes the
ops pointer through a struct scx_enable_cmd containing the kthread_work,
then synchronously waits for completion.
The workfn runs on a different kthread from sch->helper (which runs
disable_work), so it can safely flush disable_work on the error path
without deadlock. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix chunk map leak in btrfs_map_block() after btrfs_chunk_map_num_copies()
Fix a chunk map leak in btrfs_map_block(): if we return early with -EINVAL,
we're not freeing the chunk map that we've just looked up. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ti: icssg-prueth: Fix memory leak in XDP_DROP for non-zero-copy mode
Page recycling was removed from the XDP_DROP path in emac_run_xdp() to
avoid conflicts with AF_XDP zero-copy mode, which uses xsk_buff_free()
instead.
However, this causes a memory leak when running XDP programs that drop
packets in non-zero-copy mode (standard page pool mode). The pages are
never returned to the page pool, leading to OOM conditions.
Fix this by handling cleanup in the caller, emac_rx_packet().
When emac_run_xdp() returns ICSSG_XDP_CONSUMED for XDP_DROP, the
caller now recycles the page back to the page pool. The zero-copy
path, emac_rx_packet_zc() already handles cleanup correctly with
xsk_buff_free(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: Fix cred ref leak in nfsd_nl_listener_set_doit().
nfsd_nl_listener_set_doit() uses get_current_cred() without
put_cred().
As we can see from other callers, svc_xprt_create_from_sa()
does not require the extra refcount.
nfsd_nl_listener_set_doit() is always in the process context,
sendmsg(), and current->cred does not go away.
Let's use current_cred() in nfsd_nl_listener_set_doit(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc, perf: Check that current->mm is alive before getting user callchain
It may happen that mm is already released, which leads to kernel panic.
This adds the NULL check for current->mm, similarly to
commit 20afc60f892d ("x86, perf: Check that current->mm is alive before getting user callchain").
I was getting this panic when running a profiling BPF program
(profile.py from bcc-tools):

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/rose: fix NULL pointer dereference in rose_transmit_link on reconnect
syzkaller reported a bug [1], and the reproducer is available at [2].
ROSE sockets use four sk->sk_state values: TCP_CLOSE, TCP_LISTEN,
TCP_SYN_SENT, and TCP_ESTABLISHED. rose_connect() already rejects
calls for TCP_ESTABLISHED (-EISCONN) and TCP_CLOSE with SS_CONNECTING
(-ECONNREFUSED), but lacks a check for TCP_SYN_SENT.
When rose_connect() is called a second time while the first connection
attempt is still in progress (TCP_SYN_SENT), it overwrites
rose->neighbour via rose_get_neigh(). If that returns NULL, the socket
is left with rose->state == ROSE_STATE_1 but rose->neighbour == NULL.
When the socket is subsequently closed, rose_release() sees
ROSE_STATE_1 and calls rose_write_internal() ->
rose_transmit_link(skb, NULL), causing a NULL pointer dereference.
Per connect(2), a second connect() while a connection is already in
progress should return -EALREADY. Add this missing check for
TCP_SYN_SENT to complete the state validation in rose_connect().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/i915/dmc: Fix an unlikely NULL pointer deference at probe
intel_dmc_update_dc6_allowed_count() oopses when DMC hasn't been
initialized, and dmc is thus NULL.
That would be the case when the call path is
intel_power_domains_init_hw() -> {skl,bxt,icl}_display_core_init() ->
gen9_set_dc_state() -> intel_dmc_update_dc6_allowed_count(), as
intel_power_domains_init_hw() is called *before* intel_dmc_init().
However, gen9_set_dc_state() calls intel_dmc_update_dc6_allowed_count()
conditionally, depending on the current and target DC states. At probe,
the target is disabled, but if DC6 is enabled, the function is called,
and an oops follows. Apparently it's quite unlikely that DC6 is enabled
at probe, as we haven't seen this failure mode before.
It is also strange to have DC6 enabled at boot, since that would require
the DMC firmware (loaded by BIOS); the BIOS loading the DMC firmware and
the driver stopping / reprogramming the firmware is a poorly specified
sequence and as such unlikely an intentional BIOS behaviour. It's more
likely that BIOS is leaving an unintentionally enabled DC6 HW state
behind (without actually loading the required DMC firmware for this).
The tracking of the DC6 allowed counter only works if starting /
stopping the counter depends on the _SW_ DC6 state vs. the current _HW_
DC6 state (since stopping the counter requires the DC5 counter captured
when the counter was started). Thus, using the HW DC6 state is incorrect
and it also leads to the above oops. Fix both issues by using the SW DC6
state for the tracking.
This is v2 of the fix originally sent by Jani, updated based on the
first Link: discussion below.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/imagination: Fix deadlock in soft reset sequence
The soft reset sequence is currently executed from the threaded IRQ
handler, hence it cannot call disable_irq() which internally waits
for IRQ handlers, i.e. itself, to complete.
Use disable_irq_nosync() during a soft reset instead. |

drm/xe: Fix memory leak in xe_vm_madvise_ioctl
When check_bo_args_are_sane() validation fails, jump to the new
free_vmas cleanup label to properly free the allocated resources.
This ensures proper cleanup in this error path.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix potencial OOB in get_file_all_info() for compound requests
When a compound request consists of QUERY_DIRECTORY + QUERY_INFO
(FILE_ALL_INFORMATION) and the first command consumes nearly the entire
max_trans_size, get_file_all_info() would blindly call smbConvertToUTF16()
with PATH_MAX, causing out-of-bounds write beyond the response buffer.
In get_file_all_info(), there was a missing validation check for
the client-provided OutputBufferLength before copying the filename into
FileName field of the smb2_file_all_info structure.
If the filename length exceeds the available buffer space, it could lead to
potential buffer overflows or memory corruption during smbConvertToUTF16
conversion. This calculating the actual free buffer size using
smb2_calc_max_out_buf_len() and returning -EINVAL if the buffer is
insufficient and updating smbConvertToUTF16 to use the actual filename
length (clamped by PATH_MAX) to ensure a safe copy operation. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvme-fc: release admin tagset if init fails
nvme_fabrics creates an NVMe/FC controller in following path:
nvmf_dev_write()
-> nvmf_create_ctrl()
-> nvme_fc_create_ctrl()
-> nvme_fc_init_ctrl()
nvme_fc_init_ctrl() allocates the admin blk-mq resources right after
nvme_add_ctrl() succeeds. If any of the subsequent steps fail (changing
the controller state, scheduling connect work, etc.), we jump to the
fail_ctrl path, which tears down the controller references but never
frees the admin queue/tag set. The leaked blk-mq allocations match the
kmemleak report seen during blktests nvme/fc.
Check ctrl->ctrl.admin_tagset in the fail_ctrl path and call
nvme_remove_admin_tag_set() when it is set so that all admin queue
allocations are reclaimed whenever controller setup aborts. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: ->d_compare() must not block
... so don't use __getname() there. Switch it (and ntfs_d_hash(), while
we are at it) to kmalloc(PATH_MAX, GFP_NOWAIT). Yes, ntfs_d_hash()
almost certainly can do with smaller allocations, but let ntfs folks
deal with that - keep the allocation size as-is for now.
Stop abusing names_cachep in ntfs, period - various uses of that thing
in there have nothing to do with pathnames; just use k[mz]alloc() and
be done with that. For now let's keep sizes as-in, but AFAICS none of
the users actually want PATH_MAX. |

ASoC: SOF: Intel: hda: Fix NULL pointer dereference
If there's a mismatch between the DAI links in the machine driver and
the topology, it is possible that the playback/capture widget is not
set, especially in the case of loopback capture for echo reference
where we use the dummy DAI link. Return the error when the widget is not
set to avoid a null pointer dereference like below when the topology is
broken.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched/mmcid: Handle vfork()/CLONE_VM correctly
Matthieu and Jiri reported stalls where a task endlessly loops in
mm_get_cid() when scheduling in.
It turned out that the logic which handles vfork()'ed tasks is broken. It
is invoked when the number of tasks associated to a process is smaller than
the number of MMCID users. It then walks the task list to find the
vfork()'ed task, but accounts all the already processed tasks as well.
If that double processing brings the number of to be handled tasks to 0,
the walk stops and the vfork()'ed task's CID is not fixed up. As a
consequence a subsequent schedule in fails to acquire a (transitional) CID
and the machine stalls.
Cure this by removing the accounting condition and make the fixup always
walk the full task list if it could not find the exact number of users in
the process' thread list. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched/mmcid: Prevent CID stalls due to concurrent forks
A newly forked task is accounted as MMCID user before the task is visible
in the process' thread list and the global task list. This creates the
following problem:
CPU1 CPU2
fork()
sched_mm_cid_fork(tnew1)
tnew1->mm.mm_cid_users++;
tnew1->mm_cid.cid = getcid()
-> preemption
fork()
sched_mm_cid_fork(tnew2)
tnew2->mm.mm_cid_users++;
// Reaches the per CPU threshold
mm_cid_fixup_tasks_to_cpus()
for_each_other(current, p)
....
As tnew1 is not visible yet, this fails to fix up the already allocated CID
of tnew1. As a consequence a subsequent schedule in might fail to acquire a
(transitional) CID and the machine stalls.
Move the invocation of sched_mm_cid_fork() after the new task becomes
visible in the thread and the task list to prevent this.
This also makes it symmetrical vs. exit() where the task is removed as CID
user before the task is removed from the thread and task lists. |

ceph: fix i_nlink underrun during async unlink
During async unlink, we drop the `i_nlink` counter before we receive
the completion (that will eventually update the `i_nlink`) because "we
assume that the unlink will succeed". That is not a bad idea, but it
races against deletions by other clients (or against the completion of
our own unlink) and can lead to an underrun which emits a WARNING like
this one:

In ceph_unlink(), a call to ceph_mdsc_submit_request() submits the
CEPH_MDS_OP_UNLINK to the MDS, but does not wait for completion.
Meanwhile, between this call and the following drop_nlink() call, a
worker thread may process a CEPH_CAP_OP_IMPORT, CEPH_CAP_OP_GRANT or
just a CEPH_MSG_CLIENT_REPLY (the latter of which could be our own
completion). These will lead to a set_nlink() call, updating the
`i_nlink` counter to the value received from the MDS. If that new
`i_nlink` value happens to be zero, it is illegal to decrement it
further. But that is exactly what ceph_unlink() will do then.
The WARNING can be reproduced this way:
1. Force async unlink; only the async code path is affected. Having
no real clue about Ceph internals, I was unable to find out why the
MDS wouldn't give me the "Fxr" capabilities, so I patched
get_caps_for_async_unlink() to always succeed.
(Note that the WARNING dump above was found on an unpatched kernel,
without this kludge - this is not a theoretical bug.)
2. Add a sleep call after ceph_mdsc_submit_request() so the unlink
completion gets handled by a worker thread before drop_nlink() is
called. This guarantees that the `i_nlink` is already zero before
drop_nlink() runs.
The solution is to skip the counter decrement when it is already zero,
but doing so without a lock is still racy (TOCTOU). Since
ceph_fill_inode() and handle_cap_grant() both hold the
`ceph_inode_info.i_ceph_lock` spinlock while set_nlink() runs, this
seems like the proper lock to protect the `i_nlink` updates.
I found prior art in NFS and SMB (using `inode.i_lock`) and AFS (using
`afs_vnode.cb_lock`). All three have the zero check as well. |
