| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tty: fix out-of-bounds access in tty_driver_lookup_tty()
When specifying an invalid console= device like console=tty3270,
tty_driver_lookup_tty() returns the tty struct without checking
whether index is a valid number.
To reproduce:
qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -nographic -serial mon:stdio \
-kernel ../linux-build-x86/arch/x86/boot/bzImage \
-append "console=ttyS0 console=tty3270"

exfat: use kvmalloc_array/kvfree instead of kmalloc_array/kfree
The call stack shown below is a scenario in the Linux 4.19 kernel.
Allocating memory failed where exfat fs use kmalloc_array due to
system memory fragmentation, while the u-disk was inserted without
recognition.
Devices such as u-disk using the exfat file system are pluggable and
may be insert into the system at any time.
However, long-term running systems cannot guarantee the continuity of
physical memory. Therefore, it's necessary to address this issue.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/hyperv: Disable IBT when hypercall page lacks ENDBR instruction
On hardware that supports Indirect Branch Tracking (IBT), Hyper-V VMs
with ConfigVersion 9.3 or later support IBT in the guest. However,
current versions of Hyper-V have a bug in that there's not an ENDBR64
instruction at the beginning of the hypercall page. Since hypercalls are
made with an indirect call to the hypercall page, all hypercall attempts
fail with an exception and Linux panics.
A Hyper-V fix is in progress to add ENDBR64. But guard against the Linux
panic by clearing X86_FEATURE_IBT if the hypercall page doesn't start
with ENDBR. The VM will boot and run without IBT.
If future Linux 32-bit kernels were to support IBT, additional hypercall
page hackery would be needed to make IBT work for such kernels in a
Hyper-V VM. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: imu: st_lsm6dsx: fix iio_chan_spec for sensors without event detection
The st_lsm6dsx_acc_channels array of struct iio_chan_spec has a non-NULL
event_spec field, indicating support for IIO events. However, event
detection is not supported for all sensors, and if userspace tries to
configure accelerometer wakeup events on a sensor device that does not
support them (e.g. LSM6DS0), st_lsm6dsx_write_event() dereferences a NULL
pointer when trying to write to the wakeup register.
Define an additional struct iio_chan_spec array whose members have a NULL
event_spec field, and use this array instead of st_lsm6dsx_acc_channels for
sensors without event detection capability. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: don't free qgroup space unless specified
Boris noticed in his simple quotas testing that he was getting a leak
with Sweet Tea's change to subvol create that stopped doing a
transaction commit. This was just a side effect of that change.
In the delayed inode code we have an optimization that will free extra
reservations if we think we can pack a dir item into an already modified
leaf. Previously this wouldn't be triggered in the subvolume create
case because we'd commit the transaction, it was still possible but
much harder to trigger. It could actually be triggered if we did a
mkdir && subvol create with qgroups enabled.
This occurs because in btrfs_insert_delayed_dir_index(), which gets
called when we're adding the dir item, we do the following:
btrfs_block_rsv_release(fs_info, trans->block_rsv, bytes, NULL);
if we're able to skip reserving space.
The problem here is that trans->block_rsv points at the temporary block
rsv for the subvolume create, which has qgroup reservations in the block
rsv.
This is a problem because btrfs_block_rsv_release() will do the
following:
if (block_rsv->qgroup_rsv_reserved >= block_rsv->qgroup_rsv_size) {
qgroup_to_release = block_rsv->qgroup_rsv_reserved -
block_rsv->qgroup_rsv_size;
block_rsv->qgroup_rsv_reserved = block_rsv->qgroup_rsv_size;
}
The temporary block rsv just has ->qgroup_rsv_reserved set,
->qgroup_rsv_size == 0. The optimization in
btrfs_insert_delayed_dir_index() sets ->qgroup_rsv_reserved = 0. Then
later on when we call btrfs_subvolume_release_metadata() which has
btrfs_block_rsv_release(fs_info, rsv, (u64)-1, &qgroup_to_release);
btrfs_qgroup_convert_reserved_meta(root, qgroup_to_release);
qgroup_to_release is set to 0, and we do not convert the reserved
metadata space.
The problem here is that the block rsv code has been unconditionally
messing with ->qgroup_rsv_reserved, because the main place this is used
is delalloc, and any time we call btrfs_block_rsv_release() we do it
with qgroup_to_release set, and thus do the proper accounting.
The subvolume code is the only other code that uses the qgroup
reservation stuff, but it's intermingled with the above optimization,
and thus was getting its reservation freed out from underneath it and
thus leaking the reserved space.
The solution is to simply not mess with the qgroup reservations if we
don't have qgroup_to_release set. This works with the existing code as
anything that messes with the delalloc reservations always have
qgroup_to_release set. This fixes the leak that Boris was observing. |

sfc: fix crash when reading stats while NIC is resetting
efx_net_stats() (.ndo_get_stats64) can be called during an ethtool
selftest, during which time nic_data->mc_stats is NULL as the NIC has
been fini'd. In this case do not attempt to fetch the latest stats
from the hardware, else we will crash on a NULL dereference:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000038
RIP efx_nic_update_stats
abridged calltrace:
efx_ef10_update_stats_pf
efx_net_stats
dev_get_stats
dev_seq_printf_stats
Skipping the read is safe, we will simply give out stale stats.
To ensure that the free in efx_ef10_fini_nic() does not race against
efx_ef10_update_stats_pf(), which could cause a TOCTTOU bug, take the
efx->stats_lock in fini_nic (it is already held across update_stats). |

xdp->frame_sz > PAGE_SIZE check was introduced in commit c8741e2bfe87
("xdp: Allow bpf_xdp_adjust_tail() to grow packet size"). But Jesper
Dangaard Brouer <jbrouer@redhat.com> noted that after introducing the
xdp_init_buff() which all XDP driver use - it's safe to remove this
check. The original intend was to catch cases where XDP drivers have
not been updated to use xdp.frame_sz, but that is not longer a concern
(since xdp_init_buff).
Running the initial syzkaller repro it was discovered that the
contiguous physical memory allocation is used for both xdp paths in
tun_get_user(), e.g. tun_build_skb() and tun_alloc_skb(). It was also
stated by Jesper Dangaard Brouer <jbrouer@redhat.com> that XDP can
work on higher order pages, as long as this is contiguous physical
memory (e.g. a page). |

then it is one element out of bounds. The "index" comes from the

can: j1939: prevent deadlock by moving j1939_sk_errqueue()
This commit addresses a deadlock situation that can occur in certain
scenarios, such as when running data TP/ETP transfer and subscribing to
the error queue while receiving a net down event. The deadlock involves
locks in the following order:
3
j1939_session_list_lock -> active_session_list_lock
j1939_session_activate
...
j1939_sk_queue_activate_next -> sk_session_queue_lock
...
j1939_xtp_rx_eoma_one
2
j1939_sk_queue_drop_all -> sk_session_queue_lock
...
j1939_sk_netdev_event_netdown -> j1939_socks_lock
j1939_netdev_notify
1
j1939_sk_errqueue -> j1939_socks_lock
__j1939_session_cancel -> active_session_list_lock
j1939_tp_rxtimer
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(&priv->active_session_list_lock);
lock(&jsk->sk_session_queue_lock);
lock(&priv->active_session_list_lock);
lock(&priv->j1939_socks_lock);
The solution implemented in this commit is to move the
j1939_sk_errqueue() call out of the active_session_list_lock context,
thus preventing the deadlock situation. |

nvmet-fc: avoid scheduling association deletion twice
When forcefully shutting down a port via the configfs interface,
nvmet_port_subsys_drop_link() first calls nvmet_port_del_ctrls() and
then nvmet_disable_port(). Both functions will eventually schedule all
remaining associations for deletion.
The current implementation checks whether an association is about to be
removed, but only after the work item has already been scheduled. As a
result, it is possible for the first scheduled work item to free all
resources, and then for the same work item to be scheduled again for
deletion.
Because the association list is an RCU list, it is not possible to take
a lock and remove the list entry directly, so it cannot be looked up
again. Instead, a flag (terminating) must be used to determine whether
the association is already in the process of being deleted. |

futex: Don't leak robust_list pointer on exec race
sys_get_robust_list() and compat_get_robust_list() use ptrace_may_access()
to check if the calling task is allowed to access another task's
robust_list pointer. This check is racy against a concurrent exec() in the
target process.
During exec(), a task may transition from a non-privileged binary to a
privileged one (e.g., setuid binary) and its credentials/memory mappings
may change. If get_robust_list() performs ptrace_may_access() before
this transition, it may erroneously allow access to sensitive information
after the target becomes privileged.
A racy access allows an attacker to exploit a window during which
ptrace_may_access() passes before a target process transitions to a
privileged state via exec().
For example, consider a non-privileged task T that is about to execute a
setuid-root binary. An attacker task A calls get_robust_list(T) while T
is still unprivileged. Since ptrace_may_access() checks permissions
based on current credentials, it succeeds. However, if T begins exec
immediately afterwards, it becomes privileged and may change its memory
mappings. Because get_robust_list() proceeds to access T->robust_list
without synchronizing with exec() it may read user-space pointers from a
now-privileged process.
This violates the intended post-exec access restrictions and could
expose sensitive memory addresses or be used as a primitive in a larger
exploit chain. Consequently, the race can lead to unauthorized
disclosure of information across privilege boundaries and poses a
potential security risk.
Take a read lock on signal->exec_update_lock prior to invoking
ptrace_may_access() and accessing the robust_list/compat_robust_list.
This ensures that the target task's exec state remains stable during the
check, allowing for consistent and synchronized validation of
credentials. |

net: stmmac: Correctly handle Rx checksum offload errors
The stmmac_rx function would previously set skb->ip_summed to
CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY if hardware checksum offload (CoE) was enabled
and the packet was of a known IP ethertype.
However, this logic failed to check if the hardware had actually
reported a checksum error. The hardware status, indicating a header or
payload checksum failure, was being ignored at this stage. This could
cause corrupt packets to be passed up the network stack as valid.
This patch corrects the logic by checking the `csum_none` status flag,
which is set when the hardware reports a checksum error. If this flag
is set, skb->ip_summed is now correctly set to CHECKSUM_NONE,
ensuring the kernel's network stack will perform its own validation and
properly handle the corrupt packet. |

drm/sched: Fix deadlock in drm_sched_entity_kill_jobs_cb
The Mesa issue referenced below pointed out a possible deadlock:
[ 1231.611031] Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:
[ 1231.611033] CPU0 CPU1
[ 1231.611034] ---- ----
[ 1231.611035] lock(&xa->xa_lock#17);
[ 1231.611038] local_irq_disable();
[ 1231.611039] lock(&fence->lock);
[ 1231.611041] lock(&xa->xa_lock#17);
[ 1231.611044] <Interrupt>
[ 1231.611045] lock(&fence->lock);
[ 1231.611047]
*** DEADLOCK ***
In this example, CPU0 would be any function accessing job->dependencies
through the xa_* functions that don't disable interrupts (eg:
drm_sched_job_add_dependency(), drm_sched_entity_kill_jobs_cb()).
CPU1 is executing drm_sched_entity_kill_jobs_cb() as a fence signalling
callback so in an interrupt context. It will deadlock when trying to
grab the xa_lock which is already held by CPU0.
Replacing all xa_* usage by their xa_*_irq counterparts would fix
this issue, but Christian pointed out another issue: dma_fence_signal
takes fence.lock and so does dma_fence_add_callback.
dma_fence_signal() // locks f1.lock
-> drm_sched_entity_kill_jobs_cb()
-> foreach dependencies
-> dma_fence_add_callback() // locks f2.lock
This will deadlock if f1 and f2 share the same spinlock.
To fix both issues, the code iterating on dependencies and re-arming them
is moved out to drm_sched_entity_kill_jobs_work().

perf/core: Fix system hang caused by cpu-clock usage
cpu-clock usage by the async-profiler tool can trigger a system hang,
which got bisected back to the following commit by Octavia Togami:
18dbcbfabfff ("perf: Fix the POLL_HUP delivery breakage") causes this issue
The root cause of the hang is that cpu-clock is a special type of SW
event which relies on hrtimers. The __perf_event_overflow() callback
is invoked from the hrtimer handler for cpu-clock events, and
__perf_event_overflow() tries to call cpu_clock_event_stop()
to stop the event, which calls htimer_cancel() to cancel the hrtimer.
But that's a recursion into the hrtimer code from a hrtimer handler,
which (unsurprisingly) deadlocks.
To fix this bug, use hrtimer_try_to_cancel() instead, and set
the PERF_HES_STOPPED flag, which causes perf_swevent_hrtimer()
to stop the event once it sees the PERF_HES_STOPPED flag.
