| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/huge_memory: skip device-private PMDs in madvise_free_huge_pmd
madvise_free_pte_range() checks pmd_trans_huge(*pmd) unlocked, then
madvise_free_huge_pmd() takes pmd_trans_huge_lock(). pmd_is_huge()
returns true for a device-private PMD, so orig_pmd can be device-private
and enter the !pmd_present() branch.
Skip device-private PMDs in that non-present branch and continue to out
before calling pmd_folio(). Downgrade the check to VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() so
an unexpected PMD softleaf logs a warning rather than panicking. Drop the
thp_migration_supported() guard: it expands to
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_PMD_SOFTLEAF), and both
pmd_is_migration_entry() and pmd_is_device_private_entry() already return
false when that config is not selected, so the guard suppresses only the
case where the warning would already be silent.
Potential trigger: an HMM-based GPU driver races with madvise(MADV_FREE):
migrate_vma_pages() flips the PMD to a device-private entry between the
caller's pmd_trans_huge() check and the callee's pmd_trans_huge_lock(). |

nfsd: add missing read barrier to rpc_status_get dumpit seqcount retry
The hand-rolled seqcount-like protocol in nfsd_nl_rpc_status_get_dumpit()
is missing a read memory barrier (smp_rmb) before its second counter
check. The standard kernel read_seqcount_retry() includes smp_rmb()
to ensure that all data reads complete before the counter is re-checked.
Without this barrier, on weakly-ordered architectures (ARM, POWER),
the CPU may reorder field reads past the second counter check, making
the retry logic ineffective: it could observe a consistent counter pair
while reading fields that have been concurrently modified by the writer.
Add smp_rmb() before the second counter check to order the field reads
ahead of it, matching the barrier semantics of the standard seqcount
read-side. The begin-side smp_load_acquire() already pairs with the
smp_store_release() in nfsd_dispatch(); with the smp_rmb() now ordering
the field reads, the retry check no longer needs acquire semantics and
reads the counter with a plain READ_ONCE(), as read_seqcount_retry()
does.
[ cel: Use READ_ONCE instead of smp_load_acquire() ] |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/slab: take n->list_lock in __slab_try_return_freelist() to avoid race
Commit ba7425312607 ("mm, slab: add an optimistic
__slab_try_return_freelist()") incorrectly assumed that nobody has freed
an object to the slab as long as slab->freelist is NULL and cmpxchg
succeeds.
However, as reported by Hyunwoo Kim [1], other CPUs might have freed
an object to the slab, insert the slab to the partial list, then
allocated an object from the slab, and be in the middle of removing
the slab from the list under n->list_lock.
Since __refill_objects_node() puts the slab back on pc.slabs
outside n->list_lock, it might insert the slab into that list while
the slab is concurrently being removed from n->partial.
This led to a list corruption [1]:
list_add corruption. next->prev should be prev
(ffff888100000248), but was dead000000000122.
(next=ffffea000416e410).

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
This is a classic ABA problem where cmpxchg succeeds but the state has
changed since __refill_objects_node() took the freelist from the slab.
As Vlastimil Babka mentioned [2], it should be rare to return more than
one slab (due to the racy read of slab->counters in
get_partial_node_bulk()). Therefore, instead of introducing additional
complexity, acquire and release n->list_lock twice in the worst case.
Return the slab directly to the partial list and hold n->list_lock
across the cmpxchg and add_partial(). This is similar to the initial
version of commit ba7425312607 [3]. This is enough to avoid the race as
the list manipulation is serialized by n->list_lock. While at it,
bring back unlikely() hint now that the condition is unlikely. |
| Cloudreve is a self-hosted file management and sharing system. Prior to 4.18.0, PrepareUpload in pkg/filemanager/fs/dbfs/upload.go checks a stale in-memory user storage value through validateUserCapacity and later applies an unconditional storage charge outside the same quota-enforcing transaction. An authenticated user with Files.Write permission can issue concurrent upload-session requests that read the same capacity snapshot, all pass the MaxStorage check, and reserve their declared sizes through CommitWithStorageDiff. The resulting reservations can exceed the account quota and can be materialized as chunked uploads that exhaust host storage and deny uploads to other users. The default local-storage policy and default User group are affected. This issue is fixed in version 4.18.0. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: safely drain sessions during logoff
SMB3 multichannel allows requests for one session to run on multiple
connections. Wait for all channels bound to a session before freeing
shared session objects.
A deferred byte-range lock remains counted as a running request and only
wakes when its file closes. Wake blocked locks during the drain without
unpublishing or modifying their file objects. Synchronous CANCEL requests
must invoke their cancellation callback to wake pending operations, while
CHANGE_NOTIFY completion remains specific to the asynchronous path.
Serialize session teardown with channel registration and previous-session
cleanup, and use atomic work-state transitions so LOGOFF, CANCEL, and
connection teardown invoke cancellation callbacks only once. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: fix a TOCTOU race in SCTP_CMD_TIMER_START
The SCTP_CMD_TIMER_START handler checks timer_pending() before calling
timer_reduce(). The timer can expire and detach between these operations,
causing timer_reduce() to rearm the timer without taking the association
reference required for the newly armed timer.
The timer callback later unconditionally drops its association reference,
which can leave the association reference count unbalanced and result in
use-after-free during association teardown.
Use the return value of timer_reduce() to determine whether the timer was
actually armed. Take the association reference only when timer_reduce()
successfully starts a new timer, closing the race between checking the
timer state and rearming it.
This issue was reported by Nico Yip (@_cyeaa_) working with TrendAI Zero
Day Initiative. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: verisilicon: rockchip: guard VPU981 AV1 divisor and tile buffer
rockchip_vpu981_av1_dec_set_tile_info() divides context_update_tile_id by
tile_info->tile_cols and writes one descriptor per tile into the tile_info
DMA buffer, which holds AV1_MAX_TILES entries; tile_cols and tile_rows
come from the bitstream. Guard the division against a zero tile_cols by
initialising the context-update values to zero and computing them only
when tile_cols is non-zero, and stop the descriptor writes once the
tile_info buffer is full. The tile geometry written to the hardware
registers is left unmodified; the per-dimension and total tile bounds are
enforced by the control validation. |

s390/crypto: Fix wrong return code to engine in asynch callbacks
When crypto_finalize_hash_request() or
crypto_finalize_skcipher_request() explicitly completes a request, the
do_one_request callback must return 0 to indicate successful
handling. Returning a negative error code causes the crypto engine to
assume the driver failed to take ownership and triggers a second
completion via crypto_request_complete(), resulting in a double
completion. This pattern occurs in paes_s390.c 4 times and once in
phmac_s390.c.
Fixed in phmac_do_one_request() and all four paes do_one_request
callbacks (ecb, cbc, ctr, xts) by returning 0 after explicit
finalization instead of propagating the error code. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ring-buffer: Check resize_disabled before publishing the new subbuf order
ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set() stores the new order and only then walks
the CPUs, returning -EBUSY if any of them has resizing disabled. A user
mapped buffer has resizing disabled, and __rb_map_vma() reads
buffer->subbuf_order without buffer->mutex, so an mmap of an already
mapped CPU racing the failing order change sizes the mapping with the
new order and inserts pages past the sub-buffer into the VMA.
Check the CPUs before storing the new order. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vxlan: reject dynamic fdb entries that reference a nexthop id
The commit cited in the Fixes tag allowed VXLAN FDB entries to point to
FDB nexthops so that overlay traffic could be load balanced across
multiple VTEPs. Such entries can only be configured from user space,
cannot be learned and cannot roam. They only make sense with a user space
control plane such as E-VPN where data plane learning is disabled.
Despite that, the VXLAN driver does not currently prevent such entries
from being configured with the "dynamic" flag. The per-nexthop FDB list
is only protected by the per-device hash lock, which is not sufficient
when two VXLAN devices point to the same FDB nexthop and therefore share
the list. Aging runs in softirq context without RTNL, so an entry deleted
by one device can race with an addition or deletion from the other,
leading to list corruption:
list_del corruption. next->prev should be ffff8881069d9548, but was
dead000000000122. (next=ffff8881069d9448)

Fix this by rejecting the bogus configuration of dynamic FDB entries that

updated. As such, the per-nexthop FDB list is only ever mutated under the
RTNL lock. Add test cases to make sure that this does not regress in the
future. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/rds: acquire RDS_IN_XMIT in rds_tcp_reset_callbacks()
rds_tcp_reset_callbacks() quiesces the transmit path by setting the
path state to RDS_CONN_RESETTING and then waiting for RDS_IN_XMIT to
be sampled clear before swapping the underlying socket and calling
rds_send_path_reset().
Sampling the bit clear is not the same as owning it: rds_send_xmit()
can re-acquire RDS_IN_XMIT right after the wait_event() returns. Its
state recheck after taking the lock is a store-buffering pattern (the
resetter writes the state and reads the bit, the sender writes the
bit and reads the state) and acquire_in_xmit() is only an acquire
operation, so on weakly ordered architectures both sides can miss
each other's write and the transmit path then runs concurrently with
rds_send_path_reset() rewriting cp_xmit_* state - which is exactly
what the comment above rds_send_path_reset() tells its callers to
prevent.
Take the lock instead, hold it across the socket swap and
rds_send_path_reset(), and release it with a wake-up at the end. The
lock-ordering constraint documented above the wait still holds: the
lock is acquired before lock_sock(), so a sender inside tcp_sendmsg()
can never be waited on while we hold the socket lock.
Two details of the old code go away with the same change:
- t_sock is now read only after the lock is acquired. The old code
cached it before waiting; the teardown in rds_conn_shutdown()
releases that socket and clears t_sock, so a pointer cached before
the wait can be stale by the time the accept path resumes. Reading
it under RDS_IN_XMIT is what makes the exclusion complete once the
teardown owns the same lock, which the next patch arranges; until
then the teardown still only samples the bit, and the two paths
remain as exposed to each other as they are today.
- The old !osock early path called rds_send_path_reset() with no
serialization at all. It now runs under the lock like the normal
path. The conditional RDS_CONN_RESETTING transition of the
previous patch happens before the socket check either way: a path
found without a socket is either still connecting (its reconnect
worker blocked on t_conn_path_lock) and legitimately goes
RESETTING -> UP on the new socket, or it has been torn down
meanwhile and is dropped.
The in-function comment describing the old wait-based quiesce is
rewritten to describe the lock-based one, and the stale block comment
above the function (which still described a return value and an
incomplete list of t_sock writers) is refreshed to name all four
writers - the connect, accept, teardown and swap paths - and what
serializes each of them. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/rw: end write accounting from ->ki_complete
Commit b000145e9907 moved both the fsnotify calls and the write
accounting out of the kiocb completion handler and into the
io_req_rw_complete() task_work. However, only the fsnotify part actually
needed to move as it may sleep. Ending the write accounting is just a
percpu_up_read() on the superblock writers sem.
Deferring it is a problem, because it makes dropping SB_FREEZE_WRITE
protection depend on the ring owner getting to running task_work. But
the task may be blocked in freeze_super(), causing it to never get to
that:
task io-wq worker

net/rds: acquire the fastpath locks in rds_conn_shutdown()
rds_conn_shutdown() quiesces the transmit and receive-refill paths by
waiting for RDS_IN_XMIT and RDS_RECV_REFILL to be sampled clear, and
then runs the transport shutdown and rds_conn_path_reset(). Sampling
the bits clear is not the same as owning them: the moment after the
wait_event() returns, rds_send_xmit() can re-acquire RDS_IN_XMIT (or
rds_ib_recv_refill() can re-acquire RDS_RECV_REFILL) and run
concurrently with the teardown.
The sender does recheck the connection state after taking the lock,
but that recheck is a classic store-buffering pattern: teardown writes
the state and reads the bit while the sender writes the bit and reads
the state. acquire_in_xmit() is only an acquire operation, so on
weakly ordered architectures both sides can miss each other's write,
and the transmit path then runs while the transport zeroes its rings
(e.g. rds_ib_ring_init()) and rds_send_path_reset() rewrites the
transmit state under it.
Oracle UEK fixed the same class of crashes - a 14-year tail of
BUG_ON()s in rds_ib_sub_signaled(), unexpected op-codes and NULL
dereferences in rds_ib_send_cqe_handler() during failover testing -
by making the teardown path *acquire* the fastpath bit locks instead
of testing them ("rds: Make sure transmit path and connection
tear-down does not run concurrently"). Ownership of a single word is
decided by RMW atomicity, so no cross-variable ordering is needed.
Do the same here: take both locks before calling the transport
shutdown, hold them across rds_conn_path_reset(), and release them
explicitly with a wake-up afterwards. Both are released with
clear_bit_unlock(), so that the ring re-initialization done by the
transport shutdown and the transmit state rewritten by
rds_send_path_reset() are ordered before either bit is seen clear by
the next acquire_in_xmit() or acquire_refill().
The fastpath users of these bits - rds_send_xmit() and
rds_ib_recv_refill() - are trylock style and back off while teardown
owns the locks, so no new lock dependency is introduced for them.
rds_tcp_reset_callbacks() is different: since the previous patch it
acquires RDS_IN_XMIT as well, and it blocks doing so, so its wait now
spans the teardown instead of at most one send batch. That waiter
runs from rds_tcp_accept_one() on the single-threaded krdsd workqueue
and holds rds_tcp_accept_lock and t_conn_path_lock while it waits, so
a duelling SYN accepted while its path is being torn down parks
accept processing for the duration of the teardown - for TCP bounded
by the (up to 5 s) drain loop in rds_tcp_conn_path_shutdown(). An IB
path's drain in rds_ib_conn_path_shutdown() has no round cap, but no
blocking waiter either: rds_tcp_reset_callbacks() is the only blocking
acquirer of these bits and waits only on its own TCP path, and the
fastpaths are trylock-and-back-off on both transports, so a long IB
drain lengthens only that path's own quiesce. The
window is narrow: the accept-side state check has to pass before the
teardown moves the path to RDS_CONN_DISCONNECTING.
Because krdsd is a single global workqueue, everything else queued
there - accept processing for other connections and network
namespaces, and the flush_workqueue(rds_wq) in rds_tcp_listen_stop()
during namespace teardown - waits behind the parked accept worker for
that time. It cannot deadlock, although the waits do point at each
other: the teardown blocks until the bit's holder releases it, and
the holder may be that krdsd accept worker. The holder finishes
without needing anything the teardown owns: the sync cancels
rds_tcp_reset_callbacks() issues target cp_send_w and cp_recv_w on
the path's ordered cp_wq, whose only execution slot is occupied by
the blocked cp_down_w itself, so they are pending at most and cancel
without flushing - a reliance on cp_wq being ordered that is now
noted next to those cancels (on

nstree: check listing permission before taking a namespace reference
legitimize_ns() takes a reference on the candidate namespace before
may_list_ns() has decided whether the caller may see it. The
__free(ns_put) cleanup on the denied path can drop the last reference to a
mount namespace while we still hold the rcu read lock, and put_mnt_ns()

reboot: fix cad_pid use-after-free race
cad_pid is a single kernel-wide struct pid pointer. proc_do_cad_pid()
reads it and passes it to pid_vnr() without protecting the lifetime of
the referenced struct pid. A concurrent writer can replace cad_pid and
drop the final reference to the old struct pid after the reader has
loaded the pointer but before pid_vnr() has finished dereferencing it,
causing a use-after-free.
kill_cad_pid() has the same lifetime race when it passes cad_pid to
kill_pid().
At the time this issue was reported, an unprivileged user could reach the
sysctl through user and PID namespaces because cad_pid was registered in
pid_table[]. Moving cad_pid back to the global reboot sysctl table
corrected that namespace and permission mismatch, but did not fix the
underlying lifetime race.
Fix this by treating cad_pid as an RCU-protected pointer at both read
sites and by waiting for a grace period before dropping the old reference
on the write side.
call_rcu(&old_pid->rcu, ...) cannot be used here because free_pid()
also queues pid->rcu; queueing the same rcu_head twice can corrupt the
RCU callback list.

perf/x86/intel: Prevent drain_pebs() reentry
The PEBS buffer is shared by all events on a CPU, so drain_pebs() must
not be reentered. If so, one instance may observe stale buffer state and
potentially access out-of-bound memory.
Most invocations happen in NMI context, which naturally prevents reentry.
However, drain_pebs() is also reachable from process context via
intel_pmu_drain_pebs_buffer().
In those paths, the PMU is often already disabled, but not guaranteed.
For example, __intel_pmu_pebs_disable() only disables the target counter,
so other active counters can still raise a PMI and interrupt an in-flight
drain_pebs(). Here is an example,
__perf_addr_filters_adjust()
perf_event_stop()
__perf_event_stop()
x86_pmu_stop() (event->pmu->stop)
intel_pmu_disable_event()
intel_pmu_pebs_disable()
__intel_pmu_pebs_disable()
intel_pmu_drain_large_pebs()
intel_pmu_drain_pebs_buffer()
Introduce __intel_pmu_quiesce() and __intel_pmu_resume() helpers and
use them in intel_pmu_drain_large_pebs() to disable the full PMU
around the intel_pmu_drain_pebs_buffer() call, preventing reentry.
Also add a warning in intel_pmu_drain_pebs_buffer() when the full PMU is
not disabled. |

scheduler still keeps such a task on that CPU's pushable list
(rq->rt.pushable_tasks) and still marks the runqueue RT-overloaded
(rq->rt.overloaded = 1). So the RT balancer keeps treating this CPU as
having a task to move away, and keeps trying to move the task, but the
push can never succeed. When the head is pinned, push_rt_task() does not
give up either. It falls back to pushing rq->curr instead, using the
per-CPU stopper, as added by commit a7c81556ec4d ("sched: Fix
migrate_disable() vs rt/dl balancing").
The CPU spends tens of milliseconds in this retry loop. The core is
isolated for real-time work, but during the loop nearly half of its time
is consumed by pushes that cannot succeed.
An ftrace capture of the affected CPU, with sched_switch enabled and
commit 94894c9c477e ("sched/rt: Skip currently executing CPU in
rto_next_cpu()") applied, shows where the CPU time went. Two SCHED_FIFO
tasks at equal priority shared the CPU, taskA migrate_disable()'d and
queued, taskB as rq->curr. In one 89 ms window, taskB got only 52 ms of
CPU. The other 37 ms went to the stopper thread.
The scheduler kept trying to push taskA, the pinned head of the pushable
list, fell back to pushing taskB instead, and woke the stopper 5204
times. Every one of those pushes failed and no task was moved. taskA
stayed runnable and queued the whole time, and never ran.
Pushing taskB fails on a re-check. find_lock_lowest_rq() drops the rq
lock to take the target rq lock, then checks again with
"task != pick_next_pushable_task(rq)".
The task being pushed is taskB, but the pick returns taskA, the head of
the pushable list. taskB is rq->curr, and set_next_task_rt() removes the
running task from that list, so taskB can never be the head. The check
expects a candidate taken from the pushable list, but the fallback
pushes rq->curr, which is never on that list. So the check fails every
time.

'----------'
repeats every ~17 us, 5204 times, for 89 ms
The loop cannot stop itself. Every round leaves the runqueue
exactly as it was, so the next push-IPI does the same thing. In
the capture it ended only when taskB went to sleep on its own.
taskA was then picked locally and left the pushable list.
CPU time per task in the window, from sched_switch:
taskB 51.95 ms real work
migration/N 37.18 ms nothing moved
taskA 0.00 ms queued the whole time, never picked
idle 0.01 ms
Counts over the same window:
7667 push-IPIs handled on this CPU
17481 pick_next_pushable_task() returned taskA, still pinned
5204 find_lock_lowest_rq() gave up on the re-check
1 push that actually completed
0 migrations of taskA
The CPU times and the window length come from the standard
sched_switch tracepoint. The counts needed tracepoints added inside
the RT balancer for this investigation.
The self-IPI path is closed by the rto_next_cpu() fix above, and that
part works. But the runqueue is still marked overloaded, because the
pinned task is still advertised as pushable. Other CPUs now send the
push-IPIs during their own RT balancing, and the same loop runs again.
Closing the self-IPI path did not stop a pinn

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: mcast: use rcu_assign_pointer() for __rcu list updates
Several places in net/ipv6/mcast.c update RCU-protected lists
(np->ipv6_mc_list, idev->mc_list, idev->mc_tomb) using direct pointer
assignments instead of rcu_assign_pointer():
1. In __ipv6_dev_mc_dec(), unlinking a group from idev->mc_list did:
*map = ma->next;
without rcu_assign_pointer() while concurrent readers traverse
idev->mc_list locklessly under rcu_read_lock().
2. In ipv6_sock_mc_drop() and __ipv6_sock_mc_close(), unlinking a group
from np->ipv6_mc_list directly assigned *lnk = mc_lst->next and
np->ipv6_mc_list = mc_lst->next without rcu_assign_pointer(), racing
with lockless readers in inet6_mc_check().
3. In __ipv6_sock_mc_join(), mc_lst->next was initialized to
np->ipv6_mc_list via raw assignment before publishing mc_lst.
4. In mld_del_delrec() and __ipv6_dev_mc_inc(), __rcu source pointers
passed into rcu_assign_pointer() lacked explicit dereference helpers.
Fix these by consistently using rcu_assign_pointer() along with
mc_dereference() / sock_dereference(). |
