| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cgroup: Defer css percpu_ref kill on rmdir until cgroup is depopulated
A chain of commits going back to v7.0 reworked rmdir to satisfy the
controller invariant that a subsystem's ->css_offline() must not run while
tasks are still doing kernel-side work in the cgroup.
[1] d245698d727a ("cgroup: Defer task cgroup unlink until after the task is done switching out")
[2] a72f73c4dd9b ("cgroup: Don't expose dead tasks in cgroup")
[3] 1b164b876c36 ("cgroup: Wait for dying tasks to leave on rmdir")
[4] 4c56a8ac6869 ("cgroup: Fix cgroup_drain_dying() testing the wrong condition")
[5] 13e786b64bd3 ("cgroup: Increment nr_dying_subsys_* from rmdir context")
[1] moved task cset unlink from do_exit() to finish_task_switch() so a
task's cset link drops only after the task has fully stopped scheduling.
That made tasks past exit_signals() linger on cset->tasks until their final
context switch, which led to a series of problems as what userspace expected
to see after rmdir diverged from what the kernel needs to wait for. [2]-[5]
tried to bridge that divergence: [2] filtered the exiting tasks from
cgroup.procs; [3] had rmdir(2) sleep in TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE for them; [4]
fixed the wait's condition; [5] made nr_dying_subsys_* visible
synchronously.
The cgroup_drain_dying() wait in [3] turned out to be a dead end. When the
rmdir caller is also the reaper of a zombie that pins a pidns teardown (e.g.
host PID 1 systemd reaping orphan pids that were re-parented to it during
the same teardown), rmdir blocks in TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE waiting for those
pids to free, the pids can't free because PID 1 is the reaper and it's stuck
in rmdir, and the system A-A deadlocks. No internal lock ordering breaks
this; the wait itself is the bug.
The css killing side that drove the original reorder, however, can be made
cleanly asynchronous: ->css_offline() is already async, run from
css_killed_work_fn() driven by percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm(). The fix is to
make that chain start only after all tasks have left the cgroup. rmdir's
user-visible side then returns as soon as cgroup.procs and friends are
empty, while ->css_offline() still runs only after the cgroup is fully
drained.
Verified by the original reproducer (pidns teardown + zombie reaper, runs
under vng) which hangs vanilla and succeeds here, and by per-commit
deterministic repros for [2], [3], [4], [5] with a boot parameter that
widens the post-exit_signals() window so each state is reliably reachable.
Some stress tests on top of that.
cgroup_apply_control_disable() has the same shape of pre-existing race:
when a controller is disabled via subtree_control, kill_css() ran
synchronously while tasks past exit_signals() could still be linked to
the cgroup's csets, and ->css_offline() could fire before they drained.
This patch preserves the existing synchronous behavior at that call site
(kill_css_sync() + kill_css_finish() back-to-back) and a follow-up patch
will defer kill_css_finish() there using a per-css trigger.
This seems like the right approach and I don't see problems with it. The
changes are somewhat invasive but not excessively so, so backporting to
-stable should be okay. If something does turn out to be wrong, the fallback
is to revert the entire chain ([1]-[5]) and rework in the development branch
instead.
v2: Pin cgrp across the deferred destroy work with explicit
cgroup_get()/cgroup_put() around queue_work() and the work_fn. v1
wasn't actually broken (ordered cgroup_offline_wq + queue_work order
in cgroup_task_dead() saved it) but the explicit ref removes the
dependency on those non-obvious invariants. Also note the
pre-existing cgroup_apply_control_disable() race in the description;
a follow-up will defer kill_css_finish() there. |

drm/xe: Fix bo leak in xe_dma_buf_init_obj() on allocation failure
When drm_gpuvm_resv_object_alloc() fails, the pre-allocated storage bo
is not freed. Add xe_bo_free(storage) before returning the error.
xe_dma_buf_init_obj() calls xe_bo_init_locked(), which frees the bo on
error. Therefore, xe_dma_buf_init_obj() must also free the bo on its own
error paths. Otherwise, since xe_gem_prime_import() cannot distinguish
whether the failure originated from xe_dma_buf_init_obj() or from
xe_bo_init_locked(), it cannot safely decide whether the bo should be
freed.
Add comments documenting the ownership semantics: on success, ownership
of storage is transferred to the returned drm_gem_object; on failure,
storage is freed before returning.
v2: Add comments to explain the free logic.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdkfd: Clear VRAM on allocation to prevent stale data exposure
KFD VRAM allocations set AMDGPU_GEM_CREATE_VRAM_WIPE_ON_RELEASE
but not AMDGPU_GEM_CREATE_VRAM_CLEARED, leaving freshly allocated
VRAM with stale data from prior use observable by compute kernels.
The GEM ioctl path already sets VRAM_CLEARED for all userspace
allocations via amdgpu_gem_create_ioctl() and
amdgpu_mode_dumb_create(). The KFD path was missing this flag,
allowing stale page table remnants to leak into user buffers.
This causes crashes in RCCL P2P transport where non-zero data in
ptrExchange/head/tail fields corrupts the protocol handshake. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: bla: put backbone reference on failed claim hash insert
When batadv_bla_add_claim() fails to insert a new claim into the hash, it
leaked a reference to the backbone_gw for which the claim was intended.
Call batadv_backbone_gw_put() on the error path to release the reference
and avoid leaking the backbone_gw object. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: saa7164: add ioremap return checks and cleanups
Add checks for ioremap return values in saa7164_dev_setup(). If
ioremap for BAR0 or BAR2 fails, release the already allocated PCI
memory regions, remove the device from the global list, decrement
the device count, and return -ENODEV.
This prevents potential null pointer dereferences and ensures proper
cleanup on memory mapping failures. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: mpc52xx: fix use-after-free on registration failure
Make sure to disable and free the interrupts in case controller
registration fails to avoid a potential use-after-free and resource
leak.
This issue was flagged by Sashiko when reviewing a controller
deregistration fix. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/ocrdma: Don't NULL deref uctx on errors in ocrdma_copy_pd_uresp()
Sashiko points out that pd->uctx isn't initialized until late in the
function so all these error flow references are NULL and will crash. Use
the uctx that isn't NULL. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: use kzalloc to zero-initialize security descriptor buffer
Commit 62e7dd0a39c2d ("smb: common: change the data type of num_aces
to le16") split struct smb_acl's __le32 num_aces field into __le16
num_aces and __le16 reserved. The reserved field corresponds to Sbz2
in the MS-DTYP ACL wire format, which must be zero [1].
When building an ACL descriptor in build_sec_desc(), we are using a
kmalloc()'ed descriptor buffer and writing the fields explicitly using
le16() writes now. This never writes to the 2 byte reserved field,
leaving it as uninitialized heap data.
When the reserved field happens to contain non-zero slab garbage,
Samba rejects the security descriptor with "ndr_pull_security_descriptor
failed: Range Error", causing chmod to fail with EINVAL.
Change kmalloc() to kzalloc() to ensure the entire buffer is
zero-initialized.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm/gem: fix error handling in msm_ioctl_gem_info_get_metadata()
msm_ioctl_gem_info_get_metadata() always returns 0 regardless of
errors. When copy_to_user() fails or the user buffer is too small,
the error code stored in ret is ignored because the function
unconditionally returns 0. This causes userspace to believe the
ioctl succeeded when it did not.
Additionally, kmemdup() can return NULL on allocation failure, but
the return value is not checked. This leads to a NULL pointer
dereference in the subsequent copy_to_user() call.
Add the missing NULL check for kmemdup() and return ret instead of 0.
Note that the SET counterpart (msm_ioctl_gem_info_set_metadata)
correctly returns ret.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: appletb-kbd: fix UAF in inactivity-timer cleanup path
Commit 38224c472a03 ("HID: appletb-kbd: fix slab use-after-free bug in
appletb_kbd_probe") added timer_delete_sync(&kbd->inactivity_timer) to
both the probe close_hw error path and appletb_kbd_remove(), but the
way it was wired in left the inactivity timer reachable during driver
tear-down via two distinct windows.
Window A -- put_device() before timer_delete_sync():
put_device(&kbd->backlight_dev->dev);
timer_delete_sync(&kbd->inactivity_timer);
The inactivity_timer softirq reads kbd->backlight_dev and calls
backlight_device_set_brightness() -> mutex_lock(&ops_lock). If a
concurrent hid_appletb_bl unbind drops the last devm reference
between these two calls, the backlight_device is freed and the
mutex_lock() touches freed memory.
Window B -- backlight cleanup before hid_hw_stop():
if (kbd->backlight_dev) {
timer_delete_sync(...);
put_device(...);
}
hid_hw_close(hdev);
hid_hw_stop(hdev);
Even after Window A is closed, hid_hw_close()/hid_hw_stop() still run
afterwards, so a late ".event" callback from the HID core (USB URB
completion on real Apple hardware) can arrive after
timer_delete_sync() drained the softirq but before put_device() drops
the reference. That callback reaches reset_inactivity_timer(), which
calls mod_timer() and re-arms the timer. The freshly re-armed timer
can then fire on the about-to-be-freed backlight_device.
Both windows produce the same KASAN slab-use-after-free:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __mutex_lock+0x1aab/0x21c0

Close both windows at once by reworking the tear-down in
appletb_kbd_remove() and in the probe close_hw error path so that
1) hid_hw_close()/hid_hw_stop() run before the backlight cleanup,
guaranteeing no further .event callback can fire and re-arm the
timer, and
2) inside the "if (kbd->backlight_dev)" block, timer_delete_sync()
runs before put_device(), so the softirq is drained before the
final reference is dropped. |

ima: Fix stack-out-of-bounds in is_bprm_creds_for_exec()
KASAN reported a stack-out-of-bounds access in ima_appraise_measurement
from is_bprm_creds_for_exec:
BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds in ima_appraise_measurement+0x12dc/0x16a0
Read of size 1 at addr ffffc9000160f940 by task sudo/550
The buggy address belongs to stack of task sudo/550
and is located at offset 24 in frame:
ima_appraise_measurement+0x0/0x16a0
This frame has 2 objects:
[48, 56) 'file'
[80, 148) 'hash'
This is caused by using container_of on the *file pointer. This offset
calculation is what triggers the stack-out-of-bounds error.
In order to fix this, pass in a bprm_is_check boolean which can be set
depending on how process_measurement is called. If the caller has a
linux_binprm pointer and the function is BPRM_CHECK we can determine
is_check and set it then. Otherwise set it to false. |

rxrpc: Fix memory leaks in rxkad_verify_response()
Fix rxkad_verify_response() to free the ticket and the server key under all
circumstances by initialising the ticket pointer to NULL and then making
all paths through the function after the first allocation has been done go
through a single common epilogue that just releases everything - where all
the releases skip on a NULL pointer. |

This occurs when allocating MSI-X vectors for an NVMe device. During
allocation the XIVE code creates a struct xive_irq_data and stores it
in irq_data->chip_data.
When the MSI-X irqdomain is later freed, xive_irq_free_data() is
responsible for retrieving this structure and freeing it. However,
after commit cc0cc23babc9 ("powerpc/xive: Untangle xive from child
interrupt controller drivers"), xive_irq_free_data() retrieves the
chip_data using irq_get_chip_data(), which looks up the data through
the child domain.
This is incorrect because the XIVE-specific irq data is associated with
the XIVE (parent) domain. As a result the lookup fails and the allocated
struct xive_irq_data is never freed, leading to the kmemleak report
shown above.
Fix this by retrieving the irq_data from the correct domain using
irq_domain_get_irq_data() and then accessing the chip_data via
irq_data_get_irq_chip_data(). |

ASoC: qcom: q6apm-lpass-dai: Fix multiple graph opens
As prepare can be called mulitple times, this can result in multiple
graph opens for playback path.
This will result in a memory leaks, fix this by adding a check before
opening. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
EDAC/versalnet: Fix device name memory leak
The device name allocated via kzalloc() in init_one_mc() is assigned to
dev->init_name but never freed on the normal removal path. device_register()
copies init_name and then sets dev->init_name to NULL, so the name pointer
becomes unreachable from the device. Thus leaking memory.
Use a stack-local char array instead of using kzalloc() for name. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: ch341: fix devres lifetime
USB drivers bind to USB interfaces and any device managed resources
should have their lifetime tied to the interface rather than parent USB
device. This avoids issues like memory leaks when drivers are unbound
without their devices being physically disconnected (e.g. on probe
deferral or configuration changes).
Fix the controller and driver data lifetime so that they are released
on driver unbind.
Note that this also makes sure that the SPI controller is placed
correctly under the USB interface in the device tree. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vsock: fix buffer size clamping order
In vsock_update_buffer_size(), the buffer size was being clamped to the
maximum first, and then to the minimum. If a user sets a minimum buffer
size larger than the maximum, the minimum check overrides the maximum
check, inverting the constraint.
This breaks the intended socket memory boundaries by allowing the
vsk->buffer_size to grow beyond the configured vsk->buffer_max_size.
Fix this by checking the minimum first, and then the maximum. This
ensures the buffer size never exceeds the buffer_max_size. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: usblp: fix heap leak in IEEE 1284 device ID via short response
usblp_ctrl_msg() collapses the usb_control_msg() return value to
0/-errno, discarding the actual number of bytes transferred. A broken
printer can complete the GET_DEVICE_ID control transfer short and the
driver has no way to know.
usblp_cache_device_id_string() reads the 2-byte big-endian length prefix
from the response and trusts it (clamped only to the buffer bounds).
The buffer is kmalloc(1024) at probe time. A device that sends exactly
two bytes (e.g. 0x03 0xFF, claiming a 1023-byte ID) leaves
device_id_string[2..1022] holding stale kmalloc heap.
That stale data is then exposed:
- via the ieee1284_id sysfs attribute (sprintf("%s", buf+2), truncated
at the first NUL in the stale heap), and
- via the IOCNR_GET_DEVICE_ID ioctl, which copy_to_user()s the full
claimed length regardless of NULs, up to 1021 bytes of uninitialized
heap, with the leak size chosen by the device.
Fix this up by just zapping the buffer with zeros before each request
sent to the device. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix btrfs_ioctl_space_info() slot_count TOCTOU which can lead to info-leak
btrfs_ioctl_space_info() has a TOCTOU race between two passes over the
block group RAID type lists. The first pass counts entries to determine
the allocation size, then the second pass fills the buffer. The
groups_sem rwlock is released between passes, allowing concurrent block
group removal to reduce the entry count.
When the second pass fills fewer entries than the first pass counted,
copy_to_user() copies the full alloc_size bytes including trailing
uninitialized kmalloc bytes to userspace.
Fix by copying only total_spaces entries (the actually-filled count from
the second pass) instead of alloc_size bytes, and switch to kzalloc so
any future copy size mismatch cannot leak heap data. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: fix double free in ice_sf_eth_activate() error path
When auxiliary_device_add() fails, ice_sf_eth_activate() jumps to
aux_dev_uninit and calls auxiliary_device_uninit(&sf_dev->adev).
The device release callback ice_sf_dev_release() frees sf_dev, but
the current error path falls through to sf_dev_free and calls
kfree(sf_dev) again, causing a double free.
Keep kfree(sf_dev) for the auxiliary_device_init() failure path, but
avoid falling through to sf_dev_free after auxiliary_device_uninit(). |
