| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
module: validate string table section types
In elf_validity_cache_sechdrs, section sizes and offsets are validated,
unless the section type is SHT_NULL or SHT_NOBITS.
Later, elf_validity_cache_secstrings and elf_validity_cache_index_str
access the section name table (.shstrtab) and symbol string table
(.strtab) headers without first ensuring that their types are
SHT_STRTAB. If a section type is SHT_NULL or SHT_NOBITS, sh_offset has
not been validated and may reference out-of-bounds memory when
dereferenced in elf_validity_cache_secstrings or
elf_validity_cache_strtab.
Validate that both string section headers are of type SHT_STRTAB before
caching them. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm-io: report non-retryable errors separatedly
The error codes BLK_STS_NOTSUPP and BLK_STS_INVAL should not cause leg
failure on dm-raid1. This patch changes the interface to dm-io, so that
it reports two error bitmaps - error_bits and unsup_bits. The unsup_bit
bitmap tracks BLK_STS_NOTSUPP or BLK_STS_INVAL errors, the error_bits
bitmap tracks all the other errors.
dm-raid1 is changed so that it won't fail a leg if it receives an error
in the unsup_bits bitmap.
This patch (with 62dc37a819a5) fixes misbehavior if the user uses
unaligned bio vectors on dm-raid1. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: fix info-leak on partial LZNT decompress in ni_read_frame()
ni_read_frame() decompresses an LZNT $DATA frame into the vmapped target
pages and then trusts decompress_lznt()'s return value:
unc_size = decompress_lznt(frame_ondisk, ondisk_size, frame_mem,
frame_size);
if ((ssize_t)unc_size < 0) err = unc_size;
else if (!unc_size || unc_size > frame_size) err = -EINVAL;
decompress_lznt() stops as soon as the compressed stream is exhausted
(e.g. a zero chunk header) and returns the number of bytes it actually
wrote, which may be far less than frame_size. The bytes between unc_size
and frame_size are never written. The only memset() that follows zeroes
the region beyond i_valid; when the frame lies entirely within the file's
valid size that memset() does not run, so the gap retains whatever was in
the just-vmapped pages. All pages are then marked uptodate and returned
to userspace, disclosing uninitialized (recently-freed) kernel page
memory. A crafted compressed file whose stream decompresses to only a few
bytes leaks the remainder of every frame on a plain read(2), which is
enough to recover kernel pointers and defeat KASLR.
Zero the [unc_size, frame_size) tail immediately after a successful LZNT
decompress so the remainder reads back as zero. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: mcp2221: validate report size in mcp2221_raw_event()
mcp2221_raw_event() never validates the size of incoming HID reports.
In the MCP2221_I2C_GET_DATA path it trusts the device-supplied data[3]
as the copy length without checking that 4 + data[3] bytes actually
exist in the received report. A malicious or misbehaving USB device can
send a short report with a large data[3], causing the memcpy to read
past the valid report data in the HID transfer buffer and leak
uninitialized kernel memory back to userspace through the I2C/SMBus
read path.
Add a minimum size check at entry and validate that the source range
fits within the received report before the copy. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cifs: clear tcon after cifsFileInfo_put() in cifs_file_set_size()
When the else branch of cifs_file_set_size() finds a writable file handle
via find_writable_file(), it borrows tcon and server from the handle's
tlink, attempts the handle-based set_file_size() RPC, and then releases
the handle with cifsFileInfo_put().
If set_file_size() fails, execution falls through to the path-based
fallback, which reuses the borrowed tcon and server under the
"if (tcon == NULL)" guard. Since tcon is not NULL at that point, the
guard is skipped. If cifsFileInfo_put() dropped the last reference on a
tlink that was already removed from the tlink tree (TCON_LINK_IN_TREE
cleared, as happens during reconnection or session teardown),
cifs_put_tlink() will have freed tcon; the subsequent set_path_size()
call is then a use-after-free.
Setting tcon = NULL after cifsFileInfo_put() causes the existing guard
to take the cifs_sb_tlink() path, which acquires a fresh reference for
the path-based operation or fails cleanly if the session is gone. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ceph: reject export_targets ranks >= CEPH_MAX_MDS in mdsmap decode
MDSMap export_targets entries are monitor controlled. check_new_map()
uses each entry as a bit number in a fixed stack bitmap, so a rank
outside the protocol namespace can make set_bit() write past the end of
the array.
Reject ranks outside CEPH_MAX_MDS while decoding the map. Do not
validate against possible_max_rank here because maps may legitimately
reference ranks beyond a temporarily reduced max_mds. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: gate nfs3 setacl by argp->mask
nfsd3_proc_setacl() calls set_posix_acl() unconditionally for both
ACL_TYPE_ACCESS and ACL_TYPE_DEFAULT, passing argp->acl_access and
argp->acl_default verbatim. The NFSv3 ACL decoder only populates
those pointers when the corresponding mask bit is set:
nfs3svc_decode_setaclargs()
if (args->mask & NFS_ACL) decode into acl_access
if (args->mask & NFS_DFACL) decode into acl_default
/* otherwise the pointer stays NULL (pc_argzero) */
nfsd3_proc_setacl()
set_posix_acl(.., ACL_TYPE_ACCESS, argp->acl_access)
set_posix_acl(.., ACL_TYPE_DEFAULT, argp->acl_default)
set_posix_acl(idmap, dentry, type, NULL) is the VFS "remove this
ACL type" operation. A NULL pointer that means "the client did not
send this arm" is therefore indistinguishable from "the client
asked to remove this ACL". A SETACL with mask=NFS_ACL silently
drops the directory's default ACL; mask=0 drops both.
The sibling nfsd3_proc_getacl() already consults argp->mask before
touching each arm; mirror that in setacl.
Fix by wrapping each set_posix_acl() call in the matching mask bit
check and initializing error to 0 before inode_lock so that a
request with neither bit set leaves the on-disk ACLs untouched and
returns nfs_ok. The out_drop_lock path and the unconditional
posix_acl_release() at out: are preserved; both NULL-tolerate the
skipped arms. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: gate nfs2 setacl by argp->mask
The NFSACL v2 SETACL path shares the decoder convention used by its
v3 sibling: nfsaclsvc_decode_setaclargs() fills in argp->acl_access
only when NFS_ACL is set in the request mask and argp->acl_default
only when NFS_DFACL is set, leaving the other pointer NULL because
the argument buffer is zeroed up to pc_argzero before decode.
nfsacld_proc_setacl() then hands both pointers to set_posix_acl()
unconditionally. set_posix_acl(idmap, dentry, type, NULL) is the VFS
"remove this ACL type" operation, so an omitted arm is
indistinguishable from an explicit request to delete that ACL. A
SETACL carrying only NFS_ACL silently strips the directory's default
ACL; mask=0 strips both.
This is the same defect just fixed in nfsd3_proc_setacl(); apply the
same remedy. Gate each set_posix_acl() call on its mask bit and
initialize error to 0 so that a request with neither bit set leaves
the on-disk ACLs untouched and returns success. The out_drop_lock
path and the unconditional posix_acl_release() in
nfsaclsvc_release_setacl() already tolerate the skipped arms. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: reject invalid empty mapping pairs
Reject an attribute with empty mapping pairs if it has inconsistent
highest VCN and size. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: bound page_lcns[] index by the log record
The copy_lcns loop and the redo shorten loop index page_lcns[] at j + i,
where i runs up to the log record's lcns_follow. That count is checked only
against the record's own length, not the target entry, so check_dp_table()
(which validates the entry's lcns_follow) does not cover it: the copy_lcns
entry may even be freshly allocated after that check, and find_dp() bounds j
but not i. A crafted record thus overflows page_lcns[] of an otherwise valid
entry.
Add dp_range_ok() and reject, before each loop, any record whose run does
not fit the entry. These are the only two page_lcns[] accesses indexed by
the record rather than the entry, so together with the entry validation
every access is now bounded.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: clear CALLBACK_RUNNING on failed delegation recall queue
nfsd_break_one_deleg() sets NFSD4_CALLBACK_RUNNING via test_and_set_bit
at entry to serialize recall work, then calls nfsd4_run_cb() to queue
the recall. When the queue attempt fails the refcount bump is undone,
but the RUNNING bit is left set. The only site that clears the bit is
nfsd41_destroy_cb() (fs/nfsd/nfs4callback.c), which runs from the
workqueue and is therefore unreachable when nothing was queued.
The bit becomes a permanent latch on dp->dl_recall.cb_flags: every
subsequent break_lease() on the same delegation hits the early-return
guard in nfsd_break_one_deleg() and silently skips the recall, so the
delegation is never broken and the conflicting open or lock stalls.
Fix by clearing NFSD4_CALLBACK_RUNNING on the !queued branch alongside
the refcount_dec. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ovl: fix double end_creating() on the casefold-mismatch path
ovl_create_real() releases the new dentry twice when the casefold
consistency check fails. The S_IFDIR branch calls end_creating() and
sets err, then falls through to the common out: label which calls
end_creating() on the same dentry again:
case S_IFDIR:
newdentry = ovl_do_mkdir(ofs, dir, newdentry, attr->mode);
err = PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(newdentry);
if (!err && ofs->casefold != ovl_dentry_casefolded(newdentry)) {
pr_warn_ratelimited(...);
end_creating(newdentry); /* first */
err = -EINVAL;
}
break;
...
if (err)
goto out;
...
out:
if (err) {
end_creating(newdentry); /* second, same dentry */
return ERR_PTR(err);
}
end_creating() is end_dirop(), which does inode_unlock() on the parent
and dput() on the dentry, so the parent directory's i_rwsem is unlocked
twice and the dentry is put twice. The second unlock releases a lock
that is not held, which is what wedges every later creation under that
parent, and the second dput() drops a reference that was never taken.
The branch was added by commit dfc7da402ccc ("ovl: Check for casefold
consistency when creating new dentries") as a bare dput(), which already
released the reference twice; commit fe497f0759e0 ("VFS: change
vfs_mkdir() to unlock on failure.") converted both sites to
end_creating(), adding the double unlock.
This is reachable by an unprivileged user. The casefold consistency of
the layers is validated at mount time in ovl_parse_layer(), and again on
every lookup in ovl_lookup_single(), but ofs->workdir is the internal
"work" subdirectory created inside the user-supplied workdir, and that
subdirectory is not re-checked. Marking it casefolded after the mount
therefore makes every ovl_create_temp() inherit the wrong state - and
that path reaches ovl_create_real() through ovl_start_creating_temp(),
which uses start_creating() with a generated name and so never runs the
lookup-time check.
unshare -Urm
mount -t tmpfs -o casefold=utf8-12.1.0 tmpfs mnt
mkdir -p mnt/lower/d mnt/upper mnt/work mnt/merged
mount -t overlay ovl -o lowerdir=mnt/lower,\
upperdir=mnt/upper,workdir=mnt/work mnt/merged
chattr +F mnt/work/work
mkdir mnt/merged/d/sub # directory copy-up
overlayfs: wrong inherited casefold (work/#5)
and the next copy-up blocks forever on the parent's i_rwsem:
mkdir D start_creating+0x65/0xb0
ovl_start_creating_temp+0xb0/0xe0 [overlay]
ovl_create_temp+0xa3/0x1d0 [overlay]

ovl_create_object+0xb7/0x220 [overlay]
ovl_mkdir+0x23/0x40 [overlay]
Drop the end_creating() from the branch and let out: own the cleanup,
which is what every other error path in this function already does. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: size fh_verify server sockaddr slot by xpt_locallen
The nfsd_fh_verify and nfsd_fh_verify_err tracepoints declare the
server sockaddr slot sized by xpt_remotelen but fill it from
xpt_local using xpt_locallen:
TP_STRUCT__entry(
...
__sockaddr(server, rqstp->rq_xprt->xpt_remotelen)
...
)
TP_fast_assign(
...
__assign_sockaddr(server, &rqstp->rq_xprt->xpt_local,
rqstp->rq_xprt->xpt_locallen);
...
)
When xpt_locallen exceeds xpt_remotelen, __assign_sockaddr's memcpy
writes past the reserved ring-buffer slot. In the reverse direction
(xpt_locallen < xpt_remotelen) the slot is oversized and the
unwritten tail leaks prior ring-buffer contents to trace consumers.
The write-past-end case is reachable on NFS/UDP. svc_xprt_set_remote()
is only called from svc_tcp_accept() (net/sunrpc/svcsock.c) and from
the RDMA connect path; svc_create_socket() for UDP calls only
svc_xprt_set_local(), so xpt_remotelen stays 0 for the xprt's
lifetime. Every fh_verify trace for an NFSv2/v3-over-UDP request
then copies 16 or 28 bytes from xpt_local into a zero-byte slot.
The other NFSD tracepoints that record the server address
(NFSD_TRACE_PROC_CALL_FIELDS, NFSD_TRACE_PROC_RES_FIELDS,
SVC_RQST_ENDPOINT_FIELDS) already size the server slot by
xpt_locallen; nfsd_fh_verify and nfsd_fh_verify_err were the only
exceptions.
Fix by sizing the server slot with xpt_locallen so the declared slot
matches the copy length. The client slot and its assignment already
agree on xpt_remotelen and are left untouched. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: check truncate permission under inode lock
nfsd_setattr() checks whether a size update needs NFSD_MAY_TRUNC
before it takes inode_lock(). The comparison uses the file size sampled
by that unlocked read, but the actual ATTR_SIZE update is applied later
under inode_lock() by notify_change().
This leaves a TOCTOU window for append-only files. If a client sends a
SETATTR that does not shrink the file at the time of the unlocked
sample, a concurrent append can extend the file before nfsd_setattr()
takes inode_lock(). notify_change() then applies a real truncation
without the NFSD_MAY_TRUNC check that rejects IS_APPEND(inode). The VFS
truncate syscall paths perform their own append-only checks before
calling notify_change(), so NFSD must make this decision against the
locked size it is about to change.
Split the write-count acquisition from the truncation permission check.
Keep get_write_access() before the locked setattr work, then recheck
whether the requested size is below i_size_read(inode) after inode_lock()
has been acquired and before notify_change(ATTR_SIZE). This also avoids
the plain unlocked inode->i_size load. |

Revert "media: v4l2-dev: fix error handling in __video_register_device()"
This reverts commit 2a934fdb01db6458288fc9386d3d8ceba6dd551a.
The intentions of that patch were good, but it doesn't work.
The idea is that if device_register fails, you have to do a put_device
to let the ref counter release resources.
However, the V4L2 API says that if video_register_device() fails, then
you have to call video_device_release(), which kfree()s the video_device
struct.
But the put_device() will already have freed the struct, so you end
up in a double-free scenario.
There is not really a good way of fixing this without breaking
video_register_device() into two parts, one that initializes everything,
and one that does the actual device_register, and then converting all
V4L2 drivers to this new model.
That is a massive job, and it is very unlikely that device_register
will fail.
So rather than ending up in a double-free scenario, just revert this
patch, and in that case we'll have a small memory leak. Which is a lot
more robust. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
apparmor: fix cred UAF caused by begin_current_label_crit_section()
AppArmor's begin_current_label_crit_section() is a scary function called
from lots of LSM hooks (in particular VFS/socket-related ones) that checks
if the label referenced by the current creds is marked FLAG_STALE, and if
so, attempts to use aa_replace_current_label() to replace the creds with an
updated version that uses a new label.
The first problem with this is that it would directly lead to UAF of
`struct cred` if anything in the kernel takes a pointer to the current
creds and accesses these past a security hook invocation that replaces
creds, like so:
```
const struct cred *cred = current_cred();
alloc_file_pseudo(...);
uid_t uid = cred->euid;
```
I don't know if anything in the kernel actually does this, but I think it
is very surprising that this pattern could lead to UAF.
The second problem is that things go wrong when aa_replace_current_label()
runs with overridden credentials. aa_replace_current_label() bails out if
`current_cred() != current_real_cred()` (mirroring the check in
proc_pid_attr_write()), but this check can't actually reliably detect
overridden credentials because the overridden creds can be the same as the
objective creds.
So in approximately the following scenario, things go wrong:
1. task begins with <creds A> (as both objective and subjective creds),
with refcount=2
2. task grabs an extra reference on <creds A> for overriding
3. task calls override_creds(<creds A>), which returns a pointer to the old
subjective creds (<creds A>)
4. task enters AppArmor LSM hook
5. AppArmor checks that objective/subjective creds are equal
6. AppArmor replaces both cred pointers with <creds B> and drops 2 refs on
<creds A>
7. task leaves AppArmor LSM hook
8. task calls revert_creds(<creds A>)
9. now task->cred is <creds A> while task->real_cred is <creds B>, but the
task_struct logically holds two references to <creds B>
10. another task drops the extra reference on <creds A> that was used for
overriding, refcount drops to 0
11. now task->real_cred points to freed creds
At this point, any access to current_cred() will be UAF.
I have a test case where I run aa-disable on a profile while a process
using that profile is blocked on splice() from a FUSE passthrough file into
a full pipe; after the profile update, the pipe becomes empty, splice()
resumes, the credentials go out of sync, and a subsequent getuid() syscall
results in a KASAN UAF splat.
To fix this, instead of directly replacing creds, do it via task_work that
will run at the end of the current syscall. (The point in time at which the
cred replacement happens should have no correctness impact; it is just a
performance optimization to avoid unnecessarily touching the refcount of
the new label.)
Note that AppArmor still performs direct cred replacements in the
sb_pivotroot LSM hook after this change, and that direct cred replacements
can still happen in VFS ->write() callbacks via proc_pid_attr_write().
There are two options for what to do with aa_dup_task_ctx(): Either
explicitly reset new->label_replacement_pending after the entire
aa_task_ctx has been copied, or switch to manually copying members over.
I am switching to manually copying members over because that should make
bugs more obvious. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
openvswitch: Fix CT limit teardown use-after-free
Packet processing uses CT limit state under RCU, while netns teardown
frees that state under ovs_mutex. The CT limit pointer was neither removed
from readers nor protected by a grace period, allowing packet processing to
dereference the freed state.
An unprivileged user can trigger this bug from a user and network
namespace, causing a slab-use-after-free in ovs_ct_execute() when the
netns is torn down.
Publish the CT limit pointer through RCU, remove it before teardown, and
wait for readers before freeing its contents. Keep ovs_mutex around
individual CT limit updates, and use the RCU read-side lock while GET
traverses the RCU-protected limit lists.
Netns teardown detaches the RCU-protected CT limit state in the pernet
.pre_exit callback while holding ovs_mutex. The pernet core guarantees an
RCU grace period between the .pre_exit and .exit callbacks, so the .exit
callback completes the teardown without adding any extra synchronization.
The netlink command handlers do not need NULL checks because the userspace
netlink socket holds an active reference to its network namespace while a
request is processed. The per-netns exit path therefore cannot run
concurrently with SET, DEL, or GET for that socket's namespace. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: roccat: free buffered reports when destroying device
roccat_report_event() duplicates each report with kmemdup() and stores
the allocation in a circular-buffer slot. The allocation is released only
when that slot is reused.
The device destruction paths free struct roccat_device without releasing
reports still stored in cbuf[]. This makes those allocations unreachable
and leaks up to ROCCAT_CBUF_SIZE report buffers per device.
Add a small destructor that frees every buffered report before freeing the
device, and use it in both paths that can destroy a registered device. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cifs: use cifs_invalidate_cache() in cifs_do_truncate() for O_TRUNC
cifs_do_truncate() is invoked from cifs_open() without i_rwsem, so it
cannot use cifs_resize_file_locked() to perform a proper fscache cookie
resize. Instead, add cifs_invalidate_cache() after cifs_setsize().
cifs_invalidate_cache() calls fscache_invalidate(), which works without
holding i_rwsem: it unconditionally increments inval_counter and sets
FSCACHE_COOKIE_NO_DATA_TO_READ, ensuring that stale cached data is not
served once the cookie is later activated by fscache_use_cookie().
Truncation to zero leaves no valid cached data, making invalidation the
correct semantic here. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: reject out-of-range useconds in NFSv2 SETATTR/CREATE
The NFSv2 sattr decoder converts the wire useconds to nanoseconds in
svcxdr_decode_sattr():
iap->ia_atime.tv_nsec = tmp2 * NSEC_PER_USEC;
tmp2 is a u32 and NSEC_PER_USEC is 1000, so the product is computed in
unsigned long. On ILP32 that is 32 bits, and an out-of-range useconds
value such as 4294968 wraps to tv_nsec == 704. The corruption therefore
happens during decode, before any proc function can inspect the value,
and a later range check on tv_nsec would see an in-range result and
accept it. Rejecting in the decoder yields an RPC GARBAGE_ARGS reply.
NFSv2 defines no NFSERR_INVAL, so there is no NFS-level status to return
for a malformed time argument, and the check cannot move to the proc
function the way the v3/v4 nsec range checks do.
Guard the raw useconds before the multiplication and reject values
greater than 1000000. useconds == 1000000 is kept: it is the Sun
convention for "set to the current server time", and the in-tree Linux
NFSv2 client emits it in both the atime and the mtime field for a plain
touch / utimes(file, NULL) (see encode_sattr() and
xdr_encode_current_server_time() in fs/nfs/nfs2xdr.c). Rejecting 1000000
would turn that common operation into a hard decode failure for both
SETATTR and CREATE. 1000000 * NSEC_PER_USEC is 10^9, which does not wrap
on ILP32, so the Sun convention value passes through safely. Only
genuinely out-of-range values (> 1000000) are rejected. The atime and
mtime guards are therefore symmetric.
The decoder only applied the Sun convention in the mtime block, which
clears ATTR_ATIME_SET|ATTR_MTIME_SET when mtime useconds == 1000000. If a
client puts 1000000 in the atime field but not in the mtime field, the
atime block stored an out-of-range tv_nsec (10^9) and left ATTR_ATIME_SET
set, so the bogus value reached the filesystem. Apply the convention in
the atime block as well, clearing ATTR_ATIME_SET so the server uses its
current time and ignores the value. Only ATTR_ATIME_SET is cleared there.
The mtime block keeps its existing behavior, where 1000000 means "set
both atime and mtime to now".
