| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: Fix HV VHCA stats agent registration race
mlx5e_hv_vhca_stats_create() registers the stats agent through
mlx5_hv_vhca_agent_create(). The helper publishes the agent in
hv_vhca->agents[type] under agents_lock and immediately schedules an
asynchronous control invalidation on the HV VHCA workqueue before
returning to mlx5e.
The asynchronous invalidation invokes the control agent's invalidate
callback, which reads the hypervisor control block and forwards the
command to mlx5e_hv_vhca_stats_control(). That callback may either:
- call cancel_delayed_work_sync(&priv->stats_agent.work), or
- call queue_delayed_work(priv->wq, &sagent->work, sagent->delay).
However, the delayed_work and priv->stats_agent.agent are only
initialized after mlx5_hv_vhca_agent_create() returns to mlx5e:
agent = mlx5_hv_vhca_agent_create(...); /* publish + invalidate */
...
priv->stats_agent.agent = agent; /* too late */
INIT_DELAYED_WORK(&priv->stats_agent.work, ...); /* too late */
If the asynchronous control path runs before the two assignments
above, it can:
- Operate on an uninitialized delayed_work whose timer.function is
NULL. queue_delayed_work() calls add_timer() unconditionally, so
when the timer expires the timer softirq invokes a NULL function
pointer.
- Re-initialize the timer later through INIT_DELAYED_WORK() while
the timer is already enqueued in the timer wheel, corrupting the
hlist (entry.pprev cleared while the previous bucket node still
points at this entry).
- When the worker eventually runs, mlx5e_hv_vhca_stats_work() reads
sagent->agent (NULL) and dereferences it inside
mlx5_hv_vhca_agent_write().
Fix this by:
- Initializing priv->stats_agent.work before invoking
mlx5_hv_vhca_agent_create(), so the work is always in a valid
state when the control callback observes it.
- Adding a struct mlx5_hv_vhca_agent **ctx_update out-parameter
to mlx5_hv_vhca_agent_create(). The helper writes the agent
pointer to *ctx_update before publishing into hv_vhca->agents[]
and triggering the agents_update flow, so any callback
subsequently invoked from that flow already sees a valid
priv->stats_agent.agent. This avoids having the control
callback participate in agent initialization.
While at it, access priv->stats_agent.agent with
READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() for the cross-CPU access with the worker, and
clear priv->stats_agent.buf on the agent_create() failure path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipmi: fix refcount leak in i_ipmi_request()
When a caller provides a `supplied_recv` message to i_ipmi_request(),
the function increments the user's `nr_msgs` reference count. If an
error occurs later, the out_err cleanup path only frees the recv_msg
if the function allocated it itself (i.e., !supplied_recv). In the
supplied_recv case the cleanup is skipped, leaving the reference count
elevated. The caller ipmi_request_supply_msgs() does not release the
supplied_recv on error, so the reference is permanently leaked.
Fix this by explicitly reverting the reference count operations when a
supplied recv_msg with a valid user pointer is present in the error
path: decrement nr_msgs and drop the user's kref. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipmi: Fix user refcount underflow in event delivery
ipmi_alloc_recv_msg(user) takes the temporary user reference owned by the
receive message, and ipmi_free_recv_msg() drops it again. If event delivery
fails after allocating receive messages for earlier users,
handle_read_event_rsp() rolls those messages back with
ipmi_free_recv_msg().
That rollback path still drops user->refcount explicitly after freeing each
message. The extra put can free a user that remains linked on intf->users,
so later event delivery may dereference a freed user or trip refcount_t's
addition-on-zero warning when ipmi_alloc_recv_msg() tries to acquire
another reference.
Remove the stale explicit put and the now-dead user assignment. Keep the
list_del() and ipmi_free_recv_msg() calls; they are the required rollback
operations. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
LoongArch: Fix missing dirty page tracking in {pte,pmd}_wrprotect()
When hardware page table walker (PTW) is enabled on LoongArch, the CPU
may set _PAGE_DIRTY directly in the page table entry during a write TLB
miss, without going through the software TLB store handler. The software
TLB store handler (tlbex.S:254) sets both _PAGE_DIRTY and_PAGE_MODIFIED
together:
ori t0, t0, (_PAGE_VALID | _PAGE_DIRTY | _PAGE_MODIFIED)
Since hardware PTW only sets _PAGE_DIRTY, the software-only bit, i.e.
_PAGE_MODIFIED is left unchanged. This creates a window where a PTE has
_PAGE_DIRTY set (hardware knows the page is dirty) but _PAGE_MODIFIED
clear (software is unaware).
When fork()/clone() triggers copy-on-write, __copy_present_ptes() calls
pte_wrprotect(), which unconditionally clears both the _PAGE_WRITE and
_PAGE_DIRTY bits:
pte_val(pte) &= ~(_PAGE_WRITE | _PAGE_DIRTY);
Since _PAGE_MODIFIED was never set, the dirtiness information is lost
completely. Subsequently, when memory pressure triggers page reclaim,
page_mkclean() / try_to_unmap() sees the page as clean (i.e. pte_dirty()
returns false) and the page may be freed without writeback, causing data
corruption.
Fix this by propagating the _PAGE_DIRTY bit to the _PAGE_MODIFIED bit in
both pte_wrprotect() and pmd_wrprotect() before clearing writeable bits:
if (pte_val(pte) & _PAGE_DIRTY)
pte_val(pte) |= _PAGE_MODIFIED;
The pmd_wrprotect() fix handles the CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE case,
where pmd entries need the same treatment.
This ensures the software dirty tracking bit (checked by pte_dirty() and
pmd_dirty(), which read both the _PAGE_DIRTY and _PAGE_MODIFIED bits) is
preserved across fork COW write-protection.
The issue was found by the LTP madvise09 test case, which exercises page
reclaim after "madvise(MADV_FREE), write and fork" operation sequence on
private anonymous mappings. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ieee802154: ca8210: fix pointer truncation in kfifo on 64-bit
ca8210_test_int_driver_write() and ca8210_test_int_user_read() exchange
a kmalloc'd buffer pointer through a struct kfifo, but pass a literal
'4' as the byte count to kfifo_in()/kfifo_out().
This is correct on 32-bit (pointer = 4 bytes), but on 64-bit only the
low 4 bytes of the 8-byte pointer are written into the FIFO. The reader
then reads back 4 bytes into an 8-byte local pointer variable, leaving
the upper 4 bytes uninitialized stack data. The first dereference of
the reconstructed pointer (fifo_buffer[1]) accesses an arbitrary kernel
address and generally results in an oops.
Use sizeof(fifo_buffer) so the byte count matches pointer width on every
architecture.
The driver has no architecture restriction in Kconfig, so any 64-bit
build with CONFIG_IEEE802154_CA8210_DEBUGFS=y is exposed. Issue has
been latent since the driver was added in 2017 because it is most
commonly deployed on 32-bit MCUs.
Found via a custom Coccinelle semantic patch hunting for short-byte
kfifo I/O on byte-mode kfifos used to shuttle pointers. |

ieee802154: ca8210: fix cas_ctl leak on spi_async failure
ca8210_spi_transfer() allocates cas_ctl with kzalloc_obj(GFP_ATOMIC)
and relies entirely on the SPI completion callback
ca8210_spi_transfer_complete() to free it.
The spi_async() API only invokes the completion callback on successful
submission. On failure it returns a negative error code without ever
queuing the callback, which leaves cas_ctl and its embedded spi_message
and spi_transfer orphaned. Every kfree(cas_ctl) in the driver is
inside the completion callback, so there is no other reclamation path.
ca8210_spi_transfer() is called from ca8210_spi_exchange(), the
interrupt handler ca8210_interrupt_handler(), and from the retry path
inside the completion callback itself. The exchange and interrupt
handler paths loop on -EBUSY, so under sustained SPI bus contention
every retry iteration leaks a fresh cas_ctl (~600 bytes per
occurrence).
Fix it by freeing cas_ctl on the spi_async() error path. While here,
correct the misleading error string: the function calls spi_async(),
not spi_sync(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ixp4xx_hss: fix duplicate HDLC netdev allocation
ixp4xx_hss_probe() allocates two HDLC netdevs. The first one is stored
in ndev, initialized, and registered with register_hdlc_device(). The
second one is stored in port->netdev and later used by the remove path
for unregister_hdlc_device() and free_netdev().
This means that the registered netdev is not the same object that is
unregistered and freed on remove. It also leaks the first allocation if
the second alloc_hdlcdev() call fails, and the first allocation is not
checked before ndev is used.
Older code allocated the HDLC netdev only once and stored the same object
in both the local variable and port->netdev. The buggy conversion split
this into two alloc_hdlcdev() calls. A later rename changed the local
variable name to ndev, but the underlying mismatch remained.
Fix this by allocating the HDLC netdev only once and assigning the same
object to port->netdev. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: wwan: t7xx: destroy DMA pool on CLDMA late init failure
t7xx_cldma_late_init() creates md_ctrl->gpd_dmapool before
initializing the TX and RX rings. If any ring initialization
fails, the error path frees the already initialized rings but
leaves the DMA pool allocated.
Destroy md_ctrl->gpd_dmapool on the late-init failure path
to avoid leaking the DMA pool. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cpu: hotplug: Preserve per instance callback errors
cpuhp_invoke_callback() unwinds earlier callbacks for the same
hotplug state when one instance fails. The rollback path currently
reuses ret, so a successful rollback can hide the original error and
make the failed transition look successful.
Keep the rollback result separate from the original error. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: macsec: fix use-after-free of metadata_dst on RX SC delete
When an offloaded MACsec RX SC is deleted, macsec_del_rxsc_ctx() freed
the per-SC metadata_dst with metadata_dst_free(), which kfree()s the
object unconditionally and ignores the dst reference count. The RX
datapath in mlx5e_macsec_offload_handle_rx_skb() looks up the SC under
rcu_read_lock() via xa_load(), takes a reference with dst_hold() and
attaches the dst to the skb with skb_dst_set(). A reader that already
obtained the rx_sc pointer can race with the delete path and operate on
freed memory.
Fix the owner side by dropping the reference with dst_release() instead
of freeing unconditionally, and convert the RX datapath to
dst_hold_safe() so a reader racing the SC delete cannot attach a dst
whose last reference was just dropped; only attach it when a reference
was actually taken.
mlx5e_macsec_add_rxsc() also published sc_xarray_element via xa_alloc()
before rx_sc->md_dst was allocated and initialised, so a datapath reader
that looked the SC up by fs_id could observe rx_sc with md_dst still
NULL or, on weakly-ordered architectures, a non-NULL md_dst pointer
whose contents were not yet visible. NULL-check the xa_load() result and
md_dst on the datapath, and reorder add_rxsc() so the xa_alloc() publish
happens only after md_dst is fully initialised; the xarray RCU publish
then pairs with the rcu_read_lock()/xa_load() in the datapath.
Note: macsec_del_rxsc_ctx() also kfree()s rx_sc->sc_xarray_element
without an RCU grace period while the same datapath reads it under
rcu_read_lock(); that is a separate pre-existing issue left to a
follow-up patch.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: vub300: fix use-after-free on probe failure
The vub300 driver lifetime-manages its controller state using
vub300->kref, with vub300_delete() freeing the mmc host when the last
reference is dropped. The probe error path after the inactivity timer has
been armed still bypasses that lifetime rule, however, and falls through
to mmc_free_host() directly if mmc_add_host() fails.
The race window is between arming the inactivity timer and reaching the
probe error unwind after mmc_add_host() fails:
probe thread timer/workqueue
------------ ---------------
kref_init(&vub300->kref) ref = 1
kref_get(&vub300->kref) ref = 2, timer ref
add_timer(inactivity_timer) fires after one second
|
| race window
|<---------------------------------------------------->
|
mmc_add_host(mmc)
inactivity timer fires
vub300_queue_dead_work()
kref_get() ref = 3
queue_work(deadwork)
mmc_add_host() fails
timer_delete_sync()
mmc_free_host(mmc)
frees vub300
deadwork runs
use-after-free
The inactivity timeout is one second, so this would require
mmc_add_host() to both fail and take more than one second to do so. This
is unlikely to happen in practice, but the error path is still wrong.
timer_delete_sync() only waits for the timer callback itself. It does
not flush deadwork that the callback may already have queued. As a
result, queued deadwork can still hold a kref while the probe error path
directly frees the backing mmc host, including the vub300 storage.
Fix this by using the same lifetime mechanism as disconnect. Clear
vub300->interface so that the timer callback and any queued deadwork
return early and drop their references, then drop the initial probe
reference and return without falling through to err_free_host. |

Input: ims-pcu - fix firmware leak in async update
The firmware object was not being released if validation failed.
Use __free(firmware) to ensure the firmware is always released. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: core: Fix iSCSI ISID use-after-free in REGISTER AND MOVE
core_scsi3_emulate_pro_register_and_move() maps the PERSISTENT RESERVE OUT
parameter list with transport_kmap_data_sg() and parses the destination
TransportID with target_parse_pr_out_transport_id(). For an iSCSI
TransportID (FORMAT CODE 01b), iscsi_parse_pr_out_transport_id() returns
the ISID in iport_ptr as a raw pointer into that mapped buffer.
The function then unmaps the buffer with transport_kunmap_data_sg() before
dereferencing iport_ptr in strcmp(), __core_scsi3_locate_pr_reg() and
core_scsi3_alloc_registration(). When the parameter list spans more than
one page (PARAMETER LIST LENGTH > 4096), transport_kmap_data_sg() uses
vmap() and transport_kunmap_data_sg() does vunmap(), so the kernel virtual
address backing iport_ptr is torn down and every subsequent dereference is
a use-after-free read of the unmapped region.
Keep the parameter list mapped until iport_ptr is no longer needed: drop
the early transport_kunmap_data_sg() and unmap once on the success path,
right before returning. The error paths already unmap through the existing
"if (buf) transport_kunmap_data_sg(cmd)" at the out: label, which now runs
on every post-map error exit because buf is no longer cleared early. Only
reads of the mapping happen while spinlocks are held; the map and unmap
calls remain outside any lock. The sibling caller
core_scsi3_decode_spec_i_port() already uses the buffer before unmapping it
and is left unchanged. |

scsi: lpfc: Fix memory leak in lpfc_sli4_driver_resource_setup()
The memory allocated for mboxq using mempool_alloc() is not freed in

scsi: hpsa: Fix DMA mapping leak on IOACCEL2 reset path
If phys_disk->in_reset is set, the function returns directly without
undoing the resources acquired for the command. Add the missing error
cleanup by unmapping the IOACCEL2 SG chain block when needed, unmapping
the SCSI command, and dropping the outstanding IOACCEL command count
before returning. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
accel/amdxdna: Use caller client for debug BO sync
amdxdna_drm_sync_bo_ioctl() looks up args->handle in the ioctl caller's
drm_file. For SYNC_DIRECT_FROM_DEVICE, it then calls
amdxdna_hwctx_sync_debug_bo(), but passes abo->client.
amdxdna_hwctx_sync_debug_bo() uses the passed client both as the handle
namespace for debug_bo_hdl and as the owner of the hardware context xarray.
Those must match the file that supplied args->handle. The BO's stored
client pointer is object state, not the ioctl context.
Pass filp->driver_priv instead, matching the original handle lookup. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dma-fence: Make dma_fence_dedup_array() robust against 0-count input
dma_fence_dedup_array() returns 1 when called with num_fences == 0:
the for-loop body never executes, j stays at 0, and the final
`return ++j` yields 1. This contradicts both the kernel-doc ("Return:
Number of unique fences remaining in the array") and the natural
expectation that 0 input gives 0 output.
The caller __dma_fence_unwrap_merge() bails out via the
`if (count == 0 || count == 1)` fast path and so is save.
But amdgpu_userq_wait_*() could reach the dedup call with a zero local
count and dereference an uninitialized fence slot in the array.
Make the contract match the documentation by returning 0 early. This
also skips an unnecessary sort() call on an empty array. |

dm_early_create: fix freeing used table on dm_resume failure
If dm_resume fails, the kernel attempts to free table with
dm_table_destroy, but the table was already instantiated with
dm_swap_table. This commit skips the call to dm_table_destroy in this
case. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm-pcache: reject option groups without values
The pcache target parses optional arguments as name/value pairs. A
table that advertises one optional argument and supplies only a
recognized option name, for example "cache_mode", reaches
parse_cache_opts() with argc == 1. The parser consumes the name,
decrements argc to zero, then calls dm_shift_arg() again for the value.
dm_shift_arg() returns NULL when no arguments remain, and the following
strcmp() dereferences that NULL pointer.
Check that each recognized option has a value before consuming it. This
keeps valid "cache_mode writeback" and "data_crc true/false" tables
unchanged while making malformed tables fail during target construction
with a precise missing-value error. |
