module: Fix kernel panic when a symbol st_shndx is out of bounds
The module loader doesn't check for bounds of the ELF section index in
simplify_symbols():
for (i = 1; i < symsec->sh_size / sizeof(Elf_Sym); i++) {
const char *name = info->strtab + sym[i].st_name;
switch (sym[i].st_shndx) {
case SHN_COMMON:
[...]
default:
/* Divert to percpu allocation if a percpu var. */
if (sym[i].st_shndx == info->index.pcpu)
secbase = (unsigned long)mod_percpu(mod);
else
/** HERE --> **/ secbase = info->sechdrs[sym[i].st_shndx].sh_addr;
sym[i].st_value += secbase;
break;
}
}
A symbol with an out-of-bounds st_shndx value, for example 0xffff
(known as SHN_XINDEX or SHN_HIRESERVE), may cause a kernel panic:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ...
RIP: 0010:simplify_symbols+0x2b2/0x480
...
Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
This can happen when module ELF is legitimately using SHN_XINDEX or
when it is corrupted.
Add a bounds check in simplify_symbols() to validate that st_shndx is
within the valid range before using it.
This issue was discovered due to a bug in llvm-objcopy, see relevant
discussion for details [1].

mm/pagewalk: fix race between concurrent split and refault
The splitting of a PUD entry in walk_pud_range() can race with a
concurrent thread refaulting the PUD leaf entry causing it to try walking
a PMD range that has disappeared.
An example and reproduction of this is to try reading numa_maps of a
process while VFIO-PCI is setting up DMA (specifically the
vfio_pin_pages_remote call) on a large BAR for that process.
This will trigger a kernel BUG:

Fix this by validating the PUD entry in walk_pmd_range() using a stable
snapshot (pudp_get()). If the PUD is not present or is a leaf, retry the
walk via ACTION_AGAIN instead of descending further. This mirrors the
retry logic in walk_pte_range(), which lets walk_pmd_range() retry if the
PTE is not being got by pte_offset_map_lock(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/sysfs: check contexts->nr in repeat_call_fn
damon_sysfs_repeat_call_fn() calls damon_sysfs_upd_tuned_intervals(),
damon_sysfs_upd_schemes_stats(), and
damon_sysfs_upd_schemes_effective_quotas() without checking contexts->nr.
If nr_contexts is set to 0 via sysfs while DAMON is running, these
functions dereference contexts_arr[0] and cause a NULL pointer
dereference. Add the missing check.
For example, the issue can be reproduced using DAMON sysfs interface and
DAMON user-space tool (damo) [1] like below.
$ sudo damo start --refresh_interval 1s
$ echo 0 | sudo tee \
/sys/kernel/mm/damon/admin/kdamonds/0/contexts/nr_contexts |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
writeback: don't block sync for filesystems with no data integrity guarantees
Add a SB_I_NO_DATA_INTEGRITY superblock flag for filesystems that cannot
guarantee data persistence on sync (eg fuse). For superblocks with this
flag set, sync kicks off writeback of dirty inodes but does not wait
for the flusher threads to complete the writeback.
This replaces the per-inode AS_NO_DATA_INTEGRITY mapping flag added in
commit f9a49aa302a0 ("fs/writeback: skip AS_NO_DATA_INTEGRITY mappings
in wait_sb_inodes()"). The flag belongs at the superblock level because
data integrity is a filesystem-wide property, not a per-inode one.
Having this flag at the superblock level also allows us to skip having
to iterate every dirty inode in wait_sb_inodes() only to skip each inode
individually.
Prior to this commit, mappings with no data integrity guarantees skipped
waiting on writeback completion but still waited on the flusher threads
to finish initiating the writeback. Waiting on the flusher threads is
unnecessary. This commit kicks off writeback but does not wait on the
flusher threads. This change properly addresses a recent report [1] for
a suspend-to-RAM hang seen on fuse-overlayfs that was caused by waiting
on the flusher threads to finish:

On fuse this is problematic because there are paths that may cause the
flusher thread to block (eg if systemd freezes the user session cgroups
first, which freezes the fuse daemon, before invoking the kernel
suspend. The kernel suspend triggers ->write_node() which on fuse issues
a synchronous setattr request, which cannot be processed since the
daemon is frozen. Or if the daemon is buggy and cannot properly complete
writeback, initiating writeback on a dirty folio already under writeback
leads to writeback_get_folio() -> folio_prepare_writeback() ->
unconditional wait on writeback to finish, which will cause a hang).
This commit restores fuse to its prior behavior before tmp folios were
removed, where sync was essentially a no-op.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfs: Fix NULL pointer dereference in netfs_unbuffered_write() on retry
When a write subrequest is marked NETFS_SREQ_NEED_RETRY, the retry path
in netfs_unbuffered_write() unconditionally calls stream->prepare_write()
without checking if it is NULL.
Filesystems such as 9P do not set the prepare_write operation, so
stream->prepare_write remains NULL. When get_user_pages() fails with
-EFAULT and the subrequest is flagged for retry, this results in a NULL
pointer dereference at fs/netfs/direct_write.c:189.
Fix this by mirroring the pattern already used in write_retry.c: if
stream->prepare_write is NULL, skip renegotiation and directly reissue
the subrequest via netfs_reissue_write(), which handles iterator reset,
IN_PROGRESS flag, stats update and reissue internally. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfs: Fix kernel BUG in netfs_limit_iter() for ITER_KVEC iterators
When a process crashes and the kernel writes a core dump to a 9P
filesystem, __kernel_write() creates an ITER_KVEC iterator. This
iterator reaches netfs_limit_iter() via netfs_unbuffered_write(), which
only handles ITER_FOLIOQ, ITER_BVEC and ITER_XARRAY iterator types,
hitting the BUG() for any other type.
Fix this by adding netfs_limit_kvec() following the same pattern as
netfs_limit_bvec(), since both kvec and bvec are simple segment arrays
with pointer and length fields. Dispatch it from netfs_limit_iter() when
the iterator type is ITER_KVEC. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: xilinx: xdma: Fix regmap init error handling
devm_regmap_init_mmio returns an ERR_PTR() upon error, not NULL.
Fix the error check and also fix the error message. Use the error code
from ERR_PTR() instead of the wrong value in ret. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: idxd: Fix leaking event log memory
During the device remove process, the device is reset, causing the
configuration registers to go back to their default state, which is
zero. As the driver is checking if the event log support was enabled
before deallocating, it will fail if a reset happened before.
Do not check if the support was enabled, the check for 'idxd->evl'
being valid (only allocated if the HW capability is available) is
enough. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfs: stop reclaim before pushing AIL during unmount
The unmount sequence in xfs_unmount_flush_inodes() pushed the AIL while
background reclaim and inodegc are still running. This is broken
independently of any use-after-free issues - background reclaim and
inodegc should not be running while the AIL is being pushed during
unmount, as inodegc can dirty and insert inodes into the AIL during the
flush, and background reclaim can race to abort and free dirty inodes.
Reorder xfs_unmount_flush_inodes() to stop inodegc and cancel background
reclaim before pushing the AIL. Stop inodegc before cancelling
m_reclaim_work because the inodegc worker can re-queue m_reclaim_work
via xfs_inodegc_set_reclaimable. |

mm/damon/sysfs: fix param_ctx leak on damon_sysfs_new_test_ctx() failure
Patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: fix memory leak and NULL dereference
issues", v4.
DAMON_SYSFS can leak memory under allocation failure, and do NULL pointer
dereference when a privileged user make wrong sequences of control. Fix
those.
This patch (of 3):
When damon_sysfs_new_test_ctx() fails in damon_sysfs_commit_input(),
param_ctx is leaked because the early return skips the cleanup at the out
label. Destroy param_ctx before returning. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: iptfs: validate inner IPv4 header length in IPTFS payload
Add validation of the inner IPv4 packet tot_len and ihl fields parsed
from decrypted IPTFS payloads in __input_process_payload(). A crafted
ESP packet containing an inner IPv4 header with tot_len=0 causes an
infinite loop: iplen=0 leads to capturelen=min(0, remaining)=0, so the
data offset never advances and the while(data < tail) loop never
terminates, spinning forever in softirq context.
Reject inner IPv4 packets where tot_len < ihl*4 or ihl*4 < sizeof(struct
iphdr), which catches both the tot_len=0 case and malformed ihl values.
The normal IP stack performs this validation in ip_rcv_core(), but IPTFS
extracts and processes inner packets before they reach that layer. |

tracing: Drain deferred trigger frees if kthread creation fails
Boot-time trigger registration can fail before the trigger-data cleanup
kthread exists. Deferring those frees until late init is fine, but the
post-boot fallback must still drain the deferred list if kthread
creation never succeeds.
Otherwise, boot-deferred nodes can accumulate on
trigger_data_free_list, later frees fall back to synchronously freeing
only the current object, and the older queued entries are leaked
forever.
To trigger this, add the following to the kernel command line:
trace_event=sched_switch trace_trigger=sched_switch.traceon,sched_switch.traceon
The second traceon trigger will fail and be freed. This triggers a NULL
pointer dereference and crashes the kernel.
Keep the deferred boot-time behavior, but when kthread creation fails,
drain the whole queued list synchronously. Do the same in the late-init
drain path so queued entries are not stranded there either. |

s390/entry: Scrub r12 register on kernel entry
Before commit f33f2d4c7c80 ("s390/bp: remove TIF_ISOLATE_BP"),
all entry handlers loaded r12 with the current task pointer
(lg %r12,__LC_CURRENT) for use by the BPENTER/BPEXIT macros. That
commit removed TIF_ISOLATE_BP, dropping both the branch prediction
macros and the r12 load, but did not add r12 to the register clearing
sequence.
Add the missing xgr %r12,%r12 to make the register scrub consistent
across all entry points. |

s390/syscalls: Add spectre boundary for syscall dispatch table

syscall function pointer tables. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/fdinfo: fix OOB read in SQE_MIXED wrap check
__io_uring_show_fdinfo() iterates over pending SQEs and, for 128-byte
SQEs on an IORING_SETUP_SQE_MIXED ring, needs to detect when the second
half of the SQE would be past the end of the sq_sqes array. The current
check tests (++sq_head & sq_mask) == 0, but sq_head is only incremented
when a 128-byte SQE is encountered, not on every iteration. The actual
array index is sq_idx = (i + sq_head) & sq_mask, which can be sq_mask
(the last slot) while the wrap check passes.
Fix by checking sq_idx directly. Keep the sq_head increment so the loop
still skips the second half of the 128-byte SQE on the next iteration. |

spi: spi-fsl-lpspi: fix teardown order issue (UAF)
There is a teardown order issue in the driver. The SPI controller is
registered using devm_spi_register_controller(), which delays
unregistration of the SPI controller until after the fsl_lpspi_remove()
function returns.
As the fsl_lpspi_remove() function synchronously tears down the DMA
channels, a running SPI transfer triggers the following NULL pointer
dereference due to use after free:

spi: use generic driver_override infrastructure
When a driver is probed through __driver_attach(), the bus' match()
callback is called without the device lock held, thus accessing the
driver_override field without a lock, which can cause a UAF.
Fix this by using the driver-core driver_override infrastructure taking
care of proper locking internally.
Note that calling match() from __driver_attach() without the device lock
held is intentional. [1]
Also note that we do not enable the driver_override feature of struct
bus_type, as SPI - in contrast to most other buses - passes "" to
sysfs_emit() when the driver_override pointer is NULL. Thus, printing
"\n" instead of "(null)\n". |

drm/xe/pf: Fix use-after-free in migration restore
