| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dpll: fix NULL deref in dpll_device_ops() during teardown race
When the last owner of a dpll device unregisters while a foreign driver
still holds a pin on it via dpll_pin_on_pin_register(), the dpll object
stays alive with an empty registration list. A pin notification queued
before the unregister (e.g. ice reacting to zl3073x_i2c removal) then
walks pin->dpll_refs into dpll_device_ops(), which trips the WARN_ON and
dereferences the missing registration. dpll_lock cannot help because the
notification work was queued before the unregistering driver took the
lock.
Treat the empty registration list as a legitimate transient state. Make
dpll_priv() and dpll_device_ops() return NULL in that case and make
every pin netlink path that resolves a device from a pin skip such
dplls. dpll_cmd_pin_get_one() picks a ref with a live registration and
returns -ENODEV when there is none, the pin dumpit skips such a pin
instead of aborting the dump, dpll_msg_add_pin_dplls() and the
frequency, esync, reference sync and phase adjust set paths skip dead
refs, and dpll_pin_parent_device_set() validates the parent with
dpll_device_get_by_id(). dpll_pin_register() is the last caller that
dereferenced the device ops without a check, so move its frequency
monitor validation under dpll_lock and tolerate a missing registration
there as well.
The empty registration list is equivalent to a cleared DPLL_REGISTERED
mark, both transitions happen under dpll_lock in dpll_device_register()
and dpll_device_unregister(). A pin notification for a pin whose dplls
are all gone is now dropped with -ENODEV instead of crashing, all
callers in the core ignore that return value.

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000010
#PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
#PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSv4: Fix incorrect argument passed to nfs4_delete_lease() in nfs4_add_lease()
When nfs4_add_lease() races with a delegation return, it calls
nfs4_delete_lease() to clean up. Previously, it passed priv,
which can legitimately be NULL. Passing a NULL priv eventually
leads to a NULL pointer dereference in generic_setlease(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSv4/flexfiles: fix NULL dereference for NFSv4.0 data servers
flexfiles accepts NFSv4.0 data servers, but two NFSv4 code paths assume
the data server client has a session. Unlike NFSv4.1+, an NFSv4.0 client
has no session (clp->cl_session is NULL; it uses clp->cl_slot_tbl), so
I/O to a v4.0 flexfiles DS oopses:
- nfs4_init_ds_session() dereferences clp->cl_session->session_state
while seeding the DS lease. It also only seeds cl_lease_time when
NFS4_SESSION_INITING is set; without a session that never happens, so
cl_lease_time stays 0 and nfs4_renew_state() busy-loops, requeuing
every 5 seconds. Seed the lease whenever there is no session and
return before touching session state.
- ff_layout_async_handle_error_v4() dereferences
clp->cl_session->fc_slot_table on every DS I/O error. Fall back to the
v4.0 transport slot table (clp->cl_slot_tbl) when there is no session. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
null_blk: reject per-device queue resize for shared tag set
When shared_tags is enabled, null_setup_tagset() makes the device use the
global tag_set, whose driver_data stays NULL. null_map_queues() therefore
falls back to the module-wide g_submit_queues/g_poll_queues instead of any
per-device value.
Resizing submit_queues or poll_queues via configfs on such a device calls
blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues() on the shared set, shrinking
set->nr_hw_queues. __blk_mq_realloc_hw_ctxs() only grows the
q->queue_hw_ctx[] allocation, so on shrink it merely exits and NULLs the
now-excess hctx slots. null_map_queues(), however, keeps mapping CPUs with
the unchanged g_submit_queues/g_poll_queues, so mq_map[] ends up pointing
at those NULLed hctx slots. blk_mq_map_swqueue() then dereferences the NULL
hctx (hctx->cpumask), crashing the kernel:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb/server: abort initialization when proc setup fails
ksmbd_server_init() calls ksmbd_proc_init() before creating the
remaining proc entries and server subsystems. ksmbd_proc_init() tears
down partial state on a procfs or percpu_counter allocation failure,
but returns void, so ksmbd_server_init() continues as if the counters
were usable.
Once userspace starts the server, server_ctrl_handle_init() calls
ksmbd_proc_reset(), which reaches percpu_counter_set() with a NULL
per-CPU counters pointer on SMP systems. The later ksmbd_proc_create()
calls also receive a NULL parent and may create entries in the /proc
root; ksmbd_proc_cleanup() cannot remove those entries because
ksmbd_proc_fs is NULL. |

IB/isert: delay the final Login Response until the session is registered
isert_put_login_tx() puts the final Login Response on the wire before
__transport_register_session(), which iscsi_post_login_handler() reaches

Delay the final Login Response instead. isert_get_rx_pdu() runs from
iscsi_target_rx_thread() after conn->rx_login_comp, completed by
iscsi_post_login_handler() after __transport_register_session(); iscsi-TCP
and cxgbit already take PDUs from that thread, isert alone does not. The
buffers are still posted first, so the initiator's first command does not
meet an empty receive queue and nothing depends on RNR flow control, and
the header and payload live in isert_conn, not in the struct iscsi_login
that iscsi_target_nego_release() frees first.
Over rxe, 400 login cycles per run, the oops appeared in 10 of 20
unpatched runs and in none of 20 runs with this patch. An
initiator that never waits is handled by the next patch.
Not tested: iWARP, discovery sessions over iSER, and real HCAs. |

iommu/dma: Check atomic pool allocation result directly

ALSA: seq: midi: Serialize input teardown with event_input
snd_midi_input_event() must not be running while a rawmidi substream is
closing, since this can lead to the trigger state becoming out-of-step
through this sequence in snd_rawmidi_input_trigger():
snd_rawmidi_input_trigger(up=0)
snd_midi_input_event()
-> snd_rawmidi_kernel_read()
-> snd_rawmidi_input_trigger(up=1)
-> cancel_work_sync()
which ends with the underlying device being active unexpectedly.
When this is called from close_substream(), further input can re-trigger
the input event leaving it running after rawmidi_release_priv() has set
rfile->rmidi to NULL which leads to:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000000000b0

in the output direction, but updated to use RCU following Takashi Iwai's
proposed follow-on patch [1].
With this change in place, midisynth_unsubscribe() clears the input file
so snd_midi_input_event() will not re-trigger the stream and will be
quiesced by the cancel_work_sync() in snd_rawmidi_input_trigger().

In addr_handler(), cma_acquire_dev_by_src_ip() is called to populate
id_priv->cma_dev and bind the associated ib_device to id_priv->id.device.
If cma_acquire_dev_by_src_ip() returns an error (non-zero status), the ID
remains unassociated with any RDMA device.
Previously, rdma_restrack_add(&id_priv->res) was invoked unconditionally

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
IB/isert: post the full-feature receive buffers after session registration
isert_put_login_tx() posts the full-feature receive buffers before
__transport_register_session() runs, so an initiator that does not wait
for the final Login Response can still have a SCSI command executed
against an se_session whose se_tpg is NULL - the same oops as the
previous patch, at target_submit+0xbe.
Post them from isert_get_rx_pdu(), which the previous patch already uses
to send that response, and post them before that send: the receive queue
is filled at the moment the initiator is told it may use it. Allocating
there keeps the existing property that a memory allocation failure cannot
happen once the final Login Response is on the wire.
The receive queue is already empty between the final Login Request and
isert_post_recvm(); this moves the second point later, from a median of
92 us to 172 us over 1200 logins. Only an initiator that sends before it
has been told to can reach that window, and on IB and RoCE its send is
retried there until the buffers appear - isert_rdma_accept() asks for
rnr_retry_count = 7. iWARP has no RNR flow control, so there the same
send terminates the connection instead.
Measured over rxe, 400 login cycles per run, with an initiator that does
not wait: an instrumented build counted no entries to isert_recv_done()
before the buffers are posted in 10 runs, where that initiator oopsed
8 of 10 unpatched runs and 5 of 10 with only the previous patch.
Not tested: iWARP, discovery sessions over iSER, and real HCAs. |

drm/sun4i: crtc: Propagate layer initialization error
sun4i_crtc_init() returns plain NULL when layer initialization fails,
while all its other error paths return an error pointer. The only
caller, sun4i_tcon_bind(), checks the result with IS_ERR() and happily
continues with tcon->crtc set to NULL. sun4i_rgb_init() and
sun4i_lvds_init() then dereference it in drm_crtc_mask(), which
oopses.
Return the error pointer instead. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tty: skip cdev_del() when no cdev is registered
TTY device registration can fail before a cdev is allocated.
Serial core keeps the port so setserial can still use it, and later
removal passes the NULL cdev slot to cdev_del(), causing a NULL-pointer
dereference.
Only delete the cdev when the slot is not NULL. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
phy: qcom: snps-femto-v2: Fix possible NULL-deref on early runtime suspend
Runtime PM must be enabled before creating the PHY, since phy_create()
only enables runtime PM on the PHY device if it is already enabled on
this parent device. However, the runtime PM callbacks dereference the
hsphy instance, which is not yet ready, leaving a window where a suspend
callback may trigger a NULL pointer dereference.
Take a runtime PM usage reference with pm_runtime_get_noresume() before
enabling runtime PM and release it once the PHY has been created, so that
no runtime suspend can run before the PHY is ready. This also prevents a
short window where an unnecessary runtime suspend can occur.
Use the devres-managed version to ensure PM runtime is symmetrically
disabled during driver removal for proper cleanup. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md: recheck spare changes before starting sync
remove_spares() and remove_and_add_spares() modify the array's rdev
configuration. These operations are only safe after the array has been
suspended.
md_start_sync() checks whether spare configuration changes are needed
before taking reconfig_mutex. However, the rdev state can change before
the mutex is acquired, so the initial check can become stale. In that
case, md_choose_sync_action() may remove or replace rdevs while normal
I/O is still accessing them.
The race can occur as follows:
raid10d Worker Normal IO
____________ _______________________ ______________________
raid10_write_request()
wait_blocked_dev()
set Blocked
set Faulty
Skip Faulty rdev
rrdev->nr_pending++

remove_spares()
removeable_rdev = true
raid10_remove_disk()
rdev = replacement
replacement = NULL
rdev_dec_pending(NULL)
unlock mddev (NULL)->nr_pending--
In this case, rdev_dec_pending() is called with a NULL pointer,
resulting in a NULL pointer dereference when attempting to decrement
nr_pending.
Fix this by suspending the array when spare configuration changes are
needed, including for non-read-write arrays, and checking again after
taking reconfig_mutex. If the array was not already suspended and a
change is now needed, release the mutex, suspend the array, and
reacquire the mutex before continuing. |

usb: gadget: f_uac1_legacy: remove broken string configfs attributes
The UAC1_STR_ATTRIBUTE macro defines configfs show/store handlers for
the fn_play, fn_cap, and fn_cntl string options. The store function
contains an inverted null check on the kstrndup() return value.
This means every write attempt returns -ENOMEM on success and
dereferences a NULL pointer on allocation failure. The attributes
have been broken and unused for many years.
Remove the UAC1_STR_ATTRIBUTE macro and the three attributes it
generated. The internal defaults (FILE_PCM_PLAYBACK, FILE_PCM_CAPTURE,
FILE_CONTROL) set in f_audio_alloc_inst() are unaffected. |

scsi: ufs: Avoid NULL CQE dereference when reporting invalid tags
The single-doorbell completion path can call ufshcd_compl_one_cqe() with a
NULL CQE. If no command is associated with the completion tag, the warning
message dereferences the CQE while reporting the error. Avoid that
dereference and include the invalid tag in the warning. |

ext4: use fsdata to track inline data write state and fix race
Instead of checking the live inode state (ext4_has_inline_data(inode)
and ext4_test_inode_state(inode, EXT4_STATE_MAY_INLINE_DATA)) in the
write_end handlers, use the fsdata parameter of the address space
operations to explicitly pass down the state in which write_begin
prepared the write.
A concurrent thread (such as ext4_page_mkwrite()) can convert the
inline data to an extent between write_begin and write_end. If this
happens, the write_end handlers would previously miss the inline
write_end path and fall through to extent-based write_end logic.
However, since block buffers were never allocated in write_begin,
this resulted in NULL pointer dereferences or data loss because
folio_buffers(folio) was NULL.
Define EXT4_WRITE_DATA_INLINE (4) as a bit flag (Bit 2), treating
fsdata as bitwise flags rather than mutually exclusive enums to keep
states of the write path independent. Communicate this state via
fsdata:
1) ext4_write_begin() and ext4_da_write_begin() set the
EXT4_WRITE_DATA_INLINE bit in *fsdata via bitwise OR when an inline
write is successfully prepared.
2) On entry, ext4_write_begin() clears the EXT4_WRITE_DATA_INLINE bit
to safely handle VFS retries (where generic_perform_write() bypasses
the fsdata initialization on its retry jump).
3) The write_end handlers perform a bitwise AND to check if the
EXT4_WRITE_DATA_INLINE bit is set and invoke the inline write_end
helper accordingly.
Furthermore, during a buffered write, ext4_write_inline_data_end()
acquires the xattr lock after preparing the write. If a concurrent
page fault (ext4_page_mkwrite()) converts the inline data to an extent
after the write_end handlers check the state but before
ext4_write_inline_data_end() acquires the xattr write lock, the
subsequent check will trigger a kernel panic via
BUG_ON(!ext4_has_inline_data(inode)).
To keep git history working and bisectability clean, replace the
BUG_ON check in ext4_write_inline_data_end() with a graceful error-
handling retry path in this same commit. If the inline data is cleared
after locking the xattr, we safely release all resources (releasing
iloc.bh, unlocking/putting the folio, stopping the active journal
transaction handle) and return 0 (VFS retry) to let the generic write
path retry the operation safely. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cxl/features: Reject Set Features output buffer smaller than the header
cxlctl_set_feature() sizes its output buffer from the user's
fwctl_rpc.out_len but never checks it is large enough to hold even the
fwctl_rpc_cxl_out header. With out_len == 0 , kvzalloc() returns
ZERO_SIZE_PTR, which passes the !rpc_out check, the subsequent
rpc_out->size = 0 then writes through the poison pointer.
Reject requests whose output buffer can't hold the response header,
before allocating. The Set Feature reply carries no payload, so the
header is all that is required. |
