| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_sync: extend conn_hash lookup critical sections
Using RCU-protected pointers outside the critical sections without
refcount is incorrect and may result to UAF.
Extend critical section to cover both hci_conn_hash lookup and use of
the returned conn.
Add surrounding rcu_read_lock() also when return value is not used, in
preparation for RCU lockdep requirement to hci_lookup_le_connect().
This avoids concurrent deletion of the conn before we are done
dereferencing it.
Also, make sure to hold hdev->lock when accessing hdev->accept_list. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: don't free the ASCONF's own transport in DEL-IP processing
sctp_process_asconf() caches the transport the ASCONF chunk is processed
against in asconf->transport (== chunk->transport, set once in sctp_rcv()).
For an ASCONF located through its Address Parameter by
__sctp_rcv_asconf_lookup(), that cached transport corresponds to the
Address Parameter, which need not be the packet's source address.
sctp_process_asconf_param() rejects a DEL-IP for the packet source address
(ADDIP D8, SCTP_ERROR_DEL_SRC_IP), but nothing protects asconf->transport.
A single ASCONF can therefore carry, in order:
[Address Parameter L] [DEL-IP L] [DEL-IP 0.0.0.0]
where L differs from the source. The DEL-IP for L passes the D8 check and
calls sctp_assoc_rm_peer() on the transport that asconf->transport still
points at, freeing it (RCU-deferred). The following wildcard DEL-IP then
reuses the now-dangling asconf->transport in sctp_assoc_set_primary() and
sctp_assoc_del_nonprimary_peers(): set_primary() dereferences the freed
transport (->ipaddr, ->state) and plants the dangling pointer into
asoc->peer.primary_path / active_path, and del_nonprimary_peers(), keeping
only the pointer that is no longer on the list, removes every real
transport, leaving the association with a transport_count of 0 and
primary_path/active_path pointing at freed memory.
Reject a DEL-IP that targets the transport the ASCONF is being processed
against, mirroring the existing source-address guard, so the wildcard
branch can never reuse a freed transport. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath9k: hif_usb: don't dereference hif_dev after re-arming firmware request
ath9k_hif_request_firmware() re-arms an asynchronous firmware load via
request_firmware_nowait(), passing hif_dev as the completion context, and
then still dereferences hif_dev:
dev_info(&hif_dev->udev->dev, "ath9k_htc: Firmware %s requested\n",
hif_dev->fw_name);
The re-armed callback ath9k_hif_usb_firmware_cb() runs on the "events"
workqueue and, when the firmware is missing, walks the retry chain into
ath9k_hif_usb_firmware_fail() -> complete_all(&hif_dev->fw_done). That
releases the wait_for_completion(&hif_dev->fw_done) in a concurrent
ath9k_hif_usb_disconnect(), which then kfree()s hif_dev. The trailing
dev_info() in the frame that re-armed the request can therefore read freed
memory (hif_dev->udev, the first field of struct hif_device_usb):

The fw_done barrier only makes disconnect wait for the firmware chain to
*terminate*; it does not protect the outer ath9k_hif_request_firmware()
frame that re-armed the request and keeps touching hif_dev afterwards.
Drop the post-request dev_info(): it is the only use of hif_dev after the
async request is armed, and it is purely informational (the dev_err() on the
failure path runs only when request_firmware_nowait() did not arm a callback,
so hif_dev is still alive there).
This was first reported by syzbot as a single, non-reproduced crash that was
later auto-obsoleted, and was independently rediscovered by the reFuzz fuzzer,
which produced a C reproducer (USB-gadget connect/disconnect of an ath9k_htc
device whose firmware download fails). The vulnerable code is unchanged and
still present in v7.1-rc6, where the slab-use-after-free reproduces under KASAN
once the (sub-microsecond) race window is widened. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86/mmu: Fix use-after-free on vendor module reload
mmu_destroy_caches() destroys pte_list_desc_cache and
mmu_page_header_cache, but leaves both pointers unchanged. The pointers
live in kvm.ko, and therefore survive when a vendor module is unloaded
while kvm.ko remains loaded.
If creation of pte_list_desc_cache fails during a subsequent vendor
module load, its assignment sets pte_list_desc_cache to NULL and the
error path calls mmu_destroy_caches(). mmu_page_header_cache still
points to the cache destroyed during the preceding vendor module
unload. Passing that stale pointer to kmem_cache_destroy() causes a
slab use-after-free.
Reproduce the issue on a v7.1.3 kernel with CONFIG_KASAN=y,
CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC=y, CONFIG_KVM=m, and CONFIG_KVM_INTEL=m. A
one-shot test hook forces pte_list_desc_cache to NULL on the second
invocation of kvm_mmu_vendor_module_init():
1. Load kvm.ko and kvm-intel.ko, creating both caches.
2. Unload only kvm_intel, leaving kvm.ko loaded.
3. Reload kvm_intel and force initialization through the -ENOMEM path.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mtd: virt_concat: fix use-after-free in mtd_virt_concat_destroy_joins()
mtd_concat_destroy() frees item->concat so calling
mtd_virt_concat_put_mtd_devices(item->concat) leads to a use after free.
Fix this by moving mtd_virt_concat_put_mtd_devices() before

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/khugepaged: write all dirty file folios when collapsing
[There is no upstream commit, as this code was removed by upstream
commit 044925f9b565 ("mm: fs: remove filemap_nr_thps*() functions and their users")]
As-is, khugepaged and writable-file opening exclude each other. A file
cannot be open writeable and have THPs (because the filesystem is not aware
of them). khugepaged will never collapse file pages for files that are
opened writeable. On an open(O_RDWR/O_WRONLY), the page cache for that
particular file is dropped. This is fine because nothing could've been
dirtied.
However, there is an edge-case: collapse_file() might not be able to
coexist with concurrent writers, but it can coexist with dirty folios
(from previous writers). Therefore, the following can happen:
open(file, O_RDWR)
write(file)
close(file)
madvise(file_mapping, MADV_COLLAPSE, some non-dirty range)
open(file, O_RDWR)
nr_thps > 0
truncate_inode_pages()
/* THPs are cleared out, but so are the dirty folios */
When this edge-case happens, there is data loss, as the dirty folios are
fully discarded.
Fix it by fully writing back the page cache (and waiting) when collapsing
file THPs. Doing so provides the guarantee that no dirty folio will be
observed while there are active THPs. To fully ensure this is safe, the
invalidate_lock needs to be held while doing the writeout, so that
do_dentry_open()'s page cache truncation excludes this write-and-wait.
As a side effect, move the nr_thps counter bumping outside the i_pages
lock. This is correct since the counter itself is an atomic_t and the
producer <-> consumer correctness is provided by a full memory barrier:
smp_mb() in collapse_file()/memory barrier implied by full ordering in
get_write_access() -> atomic_inc_unless_negative(). |

iio: core: fix uninitialized data in debugfs
If *ppos is non-zero then simple_write_to_buffer() will not initialize
the start of buf[]. Non zero values for *ppos aren't going to work
anyway. Test for them at the start of the function and return -EINVAL. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: defer link RX stats percpu free to RCU
sta_remove_link() frees a removed MLO link's RX stats percpu buffer right
away, but defers only the link container to RCU:
sta_info_free_link(&alloc->info);
kfree_rcu(alloc, rcu_head);
The RX fast path reads link_sta under rcu_read_lock and writes the percpu
stats. A reader that resolved link_sta before the removal keeps the
pointer. The container stays alive from the kfree_rcu, so the read still
works. But the percpu block it points to is already freed. This needs
uses_rss. That is when pcpu_rx_stats exists.
The full STA teardown frees the deflink stats only after
synchronize_net(). The link removal path had no such barrier. The race is
hard to win in practice, but the free should still wait for RCU.
Free the link together with its data from a single RCU callback, so the
percpu block is reclaimed only after readers drain. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: clear mode callbacks after failed mode setup
xfrm_state_gc_task can run long after a failed IPTFS state setup. In the
reproduced case, __xfrm_init_state() cached x->mode_cbs, IPTFS setup
returned -ENOMEM before publishing mode_data, and the temporary module
reference from xfrm_get_mode_cbs() was dropped immediately. The dead state
then kept x->mode_cbs until deferred GC ran after xfrm_iptfs had been
unloaded.
Clear x->mode_cbs when mode init or clone fails before publishing
mode_data. Those states never installed mode-specific state or the
long-term IPTFS module pin, so deferred GC has nothing mode-specific to
destroy and must not retain a callback table pointer past the temporary
lookup reference.
The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the order
within that path:
failed setup path:
1. cache x->mode_cbs
2. mode setup fails before mode_data
3. drop the temporary module ref
4. dead state keeps x->mode_cbs cached
GC/unload path:
1. xfrm_state_put() queues GC work
2. xfrm_iptfs unloads later
3. xfrm_state_gc_task runs
4. GC dereferences stale x->mode_cbs
This also covers the failed clone path where clone_state() returns before
publishing mode_data.

bpf: Fix UAF in sock clone early bailouts
Similar to recent commit 9b51a6155d14 ("bpf,fork: wipe ->bpf_storage
before bailouts that access it"), sk_clone() performs an initial
shallow copy of the socket field ->sk_bpf_storage via sock_copy()
for the cloned socket newsk.
If sk_clone() bails out early (e.g. if sk_filter_charge() fails) prior
to calling bpf_sk_storage_clone(), newsk->sk_bpf_storage still points
to the parent socket's BPF local storage. When newsk is subsequently
freed via sk_free(), the deallocation path (__sk_destruct() ->
bpf_sk_storage_free()) destroys the parent socket's BPF local storage,
leading to a use-after-free (UAF) on the parent socket.
Fix this by resetting newsk->sk_bpf_storage to NULL immediately after
sock_copy() in sk_clone(), and remove the now redundant initialization
from bpf_sk_storage_clone(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bnxt_en: Handle partially initialized auxiliary devices
bnxt_aux_devices_init() calls auxiliary_device_init() before all fields
used by bnxt_aux_dev_release() are initialized. After
auxiliary_device_init() succeeds, later errors must unwind with
auxiliary_device_uninit(), which invokes the release callback.
The release callback assumes that aux_priv->id, aux_priv->edev,
edev->net and edev->ulp_tbl are all populated. If allocation fails
after auxiliary_device_init(), the release path can otherwise dereference
or clear partially initialized state.
Allocate and attach the bnxt_en_dev and ULP table before calling
auxiliary_device_init(), so the release callback only sees a fully
initialized auxiliary private object. If auxiliary_device_init() itself
fails, free those allocations directly because device_initialize() has not
run and the release callback will not be invoked.
This issue was found by a static analysis checker and confirmed by manual
source review. |

wifi: ath11k: fix NULL pointer dereference in ath11k_hal_srng_access_begin
In ATH11K_QMI_EVENT_FW_READY, ATH11K_FLAG_REGISTERED is set
unconditionally even when ath11k_core_qmi_firmware_ready() fails.
This leaves the driver in an inconsistent state where
initialization is considered complete although the firmware ready
handling did not finish successfully. During the subsequent SSR,
the driver enters the restart path based on this incorrect state
and dereferences uninitialized srng members, resulting in a NULL
pointer dereference.
Call trace:

ath11k_ce_cleanup_pipes+0x17c/0x180 [ath11k]
ath11k_core_restart+0x40/0x168 [ath11k]
Fix this by:
- skipping firmware_ready if ATH11K_FLAG_REGISTERED is already set
- setting ATH11K_FLAG_REGISTERED only when firmware_ready succeeds
- setting ATH11K_FLAG_QMI_FAIL and aborting the FW_READY handling
on error

firewire: net: Fix fragmented datagram reassembly
fwnet_frag_new() keeps a sorted list of received fragments for a partial
datagram. When a new fragment is adjacent to an existing fragment, the
code checks whether the new fragment also closes the gap to the next or
previous list entry.
Those neighbor lookups currently assume that the current fragment always
has a real next or previous fragment. At a list edge, the next or
previous entry is the list head, not a struct fwnet_fragment_info.
The gap checks also compare against the old edge of the current fragment
instead of the edge after adding the new fragment. As a result, a
fragment that bridges two existing ranges may leave two adjacent ranges
unmerged, so fwnet_pd_is_complete() can miss a complete datagram.
Check for the list head before looking up the neighboring fragment, and
compare the neighbor against the new fragment's far edge when deciding
whether to merge all three ranges.
This issue was found by a static analysis checker and confirmed by
manual source review. |

tipc: serialize udp bearer replicast list updates
tipc_udp_rcast_add() and cleanup_bearer() both update ub->rcast.list with
list_add_rcu() / list_del_rcu(), but nothing serializes them. The add runs
from the encap receive softirq (via tipc_udp_rcast_disc()) without
rtnl_lock(), so it can race the cleanup delete and corrupt the list:
list_del corruption. prev->next should be ffff8880298d7ab8,
but was ffff88802449ad38. (prev=ffff888027e3ec98)

Call Trace:
cleanup_bearer (net/tipc/udp_media.c:811)
process_one_work (kernel/workqueue.c:3302)
worker_thread (kernel/workqueue.c:3466)
The bearer can be enabled from an unprivileged user namespace, as the
TIPCv2 generic-netlink ops carry no GENL_ADMIN_PERM.
Add a spinlock to struct udp_bearer and take it around the list_add_rcu()
in tipc_udp_rcast_add() and the list_del_rcu() loop in cleanup_bearer() so
the two writers can no longer corrupt the list.
Reject a duplicate peer under the same lock before allocating, and remove
tipc_udp_is_known_peer(). The old lockless pre-check in
tipc_udp_rcast_disc() was racy: two softirqs discovering the same peer
could both find it absent and add it twice.
cleanup_bearer() runs from a workqueue after tipc_udp_disable() clears the
bearer's up bit, so an encap softirq can still reach tipc_udp_rcast_add()
and add a peer after cleanup_bearer() has already emptied the list, leaking
that entry when the bearer is freed. Mark the bearer disabled under
rcast_lock once the list is emptied and refuse further additions. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: avoid auth_enable sysctl UAF during netns teardown
proc_sctp_do_auth() updates the SCTP control socket after changing
net.sctp.auth_enable. The handler gets the per-net SCTP state from
ctl->data, so an already opened sysctl file can still target a network
namespace while that namespace is being torn down.
SCTP previously registered its per-net sysctls from sctp_defaults_init(),
while the control socket is created later from sctp_ctrlsock_init(). This
exposed a window during initialization where auth_enable was writable
before net->sctp.ctl_sock existed, and a teardown window where auth_enable
stayed writable after inet_ctl_sock_destroy() had released the control
socket.
Move the per-net SCTP sysctl registration into sctp_ctrlsock_init() after
sctp_ctl_sock_init() succeeds, and unregister the sysctl table before
destroying the control socket in sctp_ctrlsock_exit(). If sysctl
registration fails after the control socket was created, destroy the
control socket in the same init path.
Make sctp_sysctl_net_unregister() tolerate a missing header and clear the
saved pointer so init-error and exit paths can safely share the unregister
helper. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rds: tcp: unregister sysctl before tearing down listen socket
rds_tcp_exit_net() frees the per-netns RDS TCP listen socket via
rds_tcp_kill_sock() before unregistering the per-netns sysctl table. Since
rds_tcp_skbuf_handler() derives the netns from
rtn->rds_tcp_listen_sock->sk, a concurrent sysctl write can race with
netns teardown and dereference the freed socket/sk.
KASAN reports the race as:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in rds_tcp_skbuf_handler+0x2aa/0x2e0

proc_sys_call_handler fs/proc/proc_sysctl.c
vfs_write fs/read_write.c
__x64_sys_pwrite64 fs/read_write.c
Fix this by unregistering the RDS TCP sysctl table before calling
rds_tcp_kill_sock(). unregister_net_sysctl_table() prevents new sysctl
handlers from starting and waits for in-flight handlers to finish, so
the listen socket can then be released safely. The fix was tested
against the linked reproducer. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pppoe: reload header pointer after dev_hard_header()
pppoe_sendmsg() saves a pointer to the PPPoE header before calling
dev_hard_header(). Device header callbacks are allowed to reallocate the
skb head, invalidating pointers into it.
This can happen when a send is blocked in copy_from_user() while the first
non-Ethernet port is added to an empty team device. The team's delegated
GRE header callback then expands the skb head. PPPoE subsequently writes
six bytes through the stale pointer into the freed head.
Reload the PPPoE header through the skb's network-header offset after
device header creation. pskb_expand_head() updates that offset when it
relocates the head. |

drm/xe: Hold a dma-buf reference for imported BOs
An imported dma-buf BO is created as a ttm_bo_type_sg BO whose
reservation object is the exporter's dma_buf->resv. The importer,
however, only takes a dma-buf reference after a successful
dma_buf_dynamic_attach(). Until then nothing keeps the exporter alive,
so if the exporter is freed while the BO still references its resv, a
later access to that resv is a use-after-free:
Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address
0x6b6b6b6b6b6b6b9c
Workqueue: ttm ttm_bo_delayed_delete [ttm]
RIP: 0010:mutex_can_spin_on_owner+0x3f/0xc0
This can be reached on two paths:
- dma_buf_dynamic_attach() fails, or
- ttm_bo_init_reserved() fails during BO creation.
In both cases the BO already has bo->base.resv pointing at the exporter
resv, and sg BOs are always torn down via ttm_bo_delayed_delete(), which
locks bo->base.resv asynchronously - potentially after the exporter has
been freed.
Take the dma-buf reference in xe_bo_init_locked(), before
ttm_bo_init_reserved(), so it also covers a creation failure there, and
release it in xe_ttm_bo_destroy(). The reference is held for the whole
BO lifetime, keeping the shared resv alive on every path.
v2:
- Reworked the fix to avoid creating the imported sg BO before
dma_buf_dynamic_attach() succeeds.
- Attach with importer_priv == NULL and make invalidate_mappings ignore
incomplete imports.
v3:
- Dropped the xe-side reordering approach since importer_priv must be
valid when dma_buf_dynamic_attach() publishes the attachment.
- Per Christian's suggestion on the v1 thread, keyed the check on
import_attach rather than removing the sg guard entirely.
- Fixes both xe and amdgpu in a single TTM patch.
v4:
- Moved import_attach check to after dma_resv_copy_fences() so fences
are copied before returning for successful imports (Thomas).
- Removed exporter-alive claim from commit message (Thomas).
v5:
- Add drm/xe patch to keep imported sg BOs off the LRU before attach
succeeds; the TTM fix alone is not sufficient for xe if the BO is
already LRU-visible. (Thomas)
v4 patch:
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/736663/?series=169129&rev=2
- Patch 1 (drm/ttm) carries Christian's Reviewed-by from v4.
v6:
- Reworked the fix based on Thomas' suggestion. Instead of the TTM resv
individualization (v1-v5) plus the xe off-LRU/placement handling (v5),
just hold a dma-buf reference for the imported BO lifetime so the
shared resv can never be freed while the BO still references it.
Single xe patch, no TTM change. (Thomas)
- Take the reference in xe_bo_init_locked() before ttm_bo_init_reserved()
so a TTM creation failure is covered too (Thomas).
- Dropped the v5 series (drm/ttm + drm/xe off-LRU); the off-LRU approach
also regressed in CI BAT via ttm_bo_pipeline_gutting() creating a ghost
BO that outlived the exporter.
Link to v5: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/169984/
v7:
- Move changelog above --- so it stays in the commit message.
- Reorder changelog entries oldest-to-newest. (Thomas)
