| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Fix memory corruption from a "STACKTRACE" histogram key
"cpu", "CPU", "stacktrace" and "STACKTRACE" are generic fields, defined
with an offset and a size of zero so that the filter code can match them
by name. parse_field() maps them onto their common_* equivalents for
backward compatibility, but unlike the common_* names it hands the
placeholder back to the caller instead of NULL.
create_hist_field() takes a non-NULL field as a promise that the record
carries a stacktrace and picks HIST_FIELD_FN_STACK, so the __data_loc
word is read from offset 0, that is from common_type, and its low 16
bits are followed as an offset into the record. What is found there
becomes the length of an unbounded memcpy. Pick an event whose id is
small enough that the offset stays inside its own record and the length
is a kernel text address:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# echo 'hist:keys=STACKTRACE' > events/ftrace/print/trigger
# echo hello > trace_marker
Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
Leave the field NULL, which is what the comment above the branch says
the code does and what common_stacktrace already does. FILTER_CPU and
FILTER_COMM are left alone, their create_hist_field() branches never
look at the field. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Fix memory corruption from the histogram stacktrace modifier
parse_field() sets HIST_FIELD_FL_STACKTRACE from the ".stacktrace"
modifier before it looks the field name up, and nothing afterwards
checks that the name resolved to a field which holds a stacktrace.
create_hist_field() picks HIST_FIELD_FN_STACK on the strength of the
field pointer alone, which reads a __data_loc word from the record and
follows its low 16 bits as an offset into the same record.
event_hist_trigger() takes the first word there as an entry count and
copies that many longs into a 31 entry array:
n_entries = *stack;
memcpy(entries, ++stack, n_entries * sizeof(unsigned long));
Neither end of that copy is bounded, and the count is whatever the event
holds at the offset, so any field will do:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_fork
# echo 'hist:keys=parent_pid.stacktrace' > trigger
# (true)

No debug options are needed for this; KASAN reports the same write as an
out-of-bounds read of 13835058055416381440 bytes.
Documentation/trace/histogram.rst already states the rule, "must be a
long[] type", so enforce it once the name has been resolved. Names which
resolve to no field at all, "hitcount.stacktrace" and the common_*
pseudo-fields, are refused for the same reason: they hold no stacktrace
to read. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ftrace: fork: Initialize function graph state before copy_exec_state()
dup_task_struct() copies the parent's task_struct, including ret_stack.
ftrace_graph_init_task() clears the copied function graph state, but it
currently runs after copy_exec_state().
For non-CLONE_VM forks, copy_exec_state() allocates a new task_exec_state.
If that allocation fails, copy_process() reaches bad_fork_free and
free_task() calls ftrace_graph_exit_task(). Since the child still carries
the parent's ret_stack pointer, the unwind frees the parent's active
function graph return stack. The parent subsequently accesses freed memory
from function_graph_enter_regs().

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.
Original KASAN crash stack:
kernel/pid.c:545 pid_nr_ns() # reads freed pid->level
kernel/pid.c:556 pid_vnr() # calls pid_nr_ns()

x86/amd_node: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference
amd_smn_read/write() are exported functions around __amd_smn_rw(), so
they are always available even if amd_smn_init() fails. In that case,
'amd_roots' is NULL and __amd_smn_rw() will access uninitialized memory.
Then, commit:
83518453074d ("x86/amd_node: Add SMN offsets to exclusive region access")
added the 'smn_exclusive' flag, which indicated the calls to
pci_request_config_region_exclusive() succeeded, to prevent
concurrent userspace access.
Commit:
0a4b61d9c2e4 ("x86/amd_node: Fix AMD root device caching")
re-ordered initialization so pci_request_config_region_exclusive() is
called earlier and a failure exits amd_smn_init() before allocating
'amd_roots'. The setting of 'smn_exclusive' moved to the end of
amd_smn_init(), after 'amd_roots' is allocated. It became redundant
and can be removed.
Replace 'smn_exclusive' with directly checking 'amd_roots', to fix a
potential NULL pointer dereference and to simplify the logic.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
configfs: pin the symlink target's dirent instead of chasing ->ci_dentry
create_link() reads the target's configfs_dirent from
item->ci_dentry->d_fsdata, relying on the item reference taken by
get_target(). That reference pins the item, not its dentry: the dentry is
pinned by DCACHE_PERSISTENT, which configfs_remove_dir() releases via
simple_rmdir() while the item is still alive. A symlink racing with rmdir
of its target can therefore find ->ci_dentry freed and its dirent
released, triggering WARN_ON(!atomic_read(&sd->s_count)) in configfs_get().
Take the dirent in get_target() as well, under ->d_lock and atomically
with the item reference, and pass it down to create_link(). A hashed
dentry has not been killed yet, so its ->d_fsdata reference keeps the
dirent alive there. |

net/rds: fix tcp stream corruption with large pages
rds_message_map_pages() assigns PAGE_SIZE bytes to every
scatterlist entry, even when total_len ends in a partial page. The RDS
congestion map is defined as 8192 bytes, so on systems with PAGE_SIZE
greater than 8192 the scatterlist maps bytes beyond the end of the
congestion map. RDS-TCP transmits the SG contents according to those
lengths, so the extra bytes become part of the TCP RDS stream and are
interpreted as subsequent RDS message headers, corrupting the stream.
Limit the final scatterlist mapping to the number of bytes remaining.
This has no effect on systems with a 4K page size and allows RDS-TCP to
be used on systems with 16K and larger page sizes.
The RDS selftest, which previously hung on 16K pages, now passes. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: mark a NULL call argument precise
check_func_arg() allows bpf_register_is_null() for nullable arguments
w/o marking the underlying scalar register precise. Hence a checkpoint
created on such a path would prune against arbitrary scalar value.
check_helper_call() enforces second parameter of the
bpf_get_local_storage() to be zero, w/o marking the underlying scalar
register precise. Hence a checkpoint created on such a path would
prune against arbitrary scalar value.
Grouping these two into one patch, as they share the same fixes tag. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Don't infer non-NULL from a pointer with an unbounded offset
reg_not_null() decides that a register holds a non-NULL value by
looking at its type alone. For pointer types that allow arithmetic the
type only guarantees a non-NULL base, in case of an unbound offset
the runtime offset value might still add up to NULL.
Consider the followng program:
r6 = bpf_map_lookup_elem(map, &0); /* present */
if (r6 == 0) return 0;
r7 = bpf_map_lookup_elem(map, &1); /* absent, NULL at runtime */
r8 = r7;
r8 -= r6; /* pointer - pointer: unknown scalar, -r6 */
r8 <<= 1;
r8 >>= 1; /* any non-negative offset is accepted by */
/* check_reg_sane_offset_ptr() */
r6 += r8; /* verifier: map value; runtime: zero */
if (r7 != r6) return 0;
*(u8 *)(r7 + 0); /* r7 is inferred non-NULL, both are zero */
At runtime both registers are zero, the comparison is true and the
load faults with NULL pointer dereference.
Require the offset to be within +-BPF_MAX_VAR_OFF in reg_not_null(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Reject legacy packet loads from callbacks
check_ld_abs() models a failed BPF_LD_ABS or BPF_LD_IND in a
subprogram as an implicit return with R0 set to zero. It calls
prepare_func_exit() to explore this synthesized path.
When the load is reached directly from a synchronous callback,
prepare_func_exit() enforces the callback return contract and marks R0
precise. R0 is not derived from a real instruction on this path, so
precision backtracking reaches the callback call with R0 still requested
and triggers the "callback unexpected regs" verifier bug. A privileged
program loader can therefore cause a verifier warning and an -EFAULT
BPF_PROG_LOAD.
These legacy packet-load instructions are deprecated. Reject them from
callbacks rather than complicating their implicit-return model. Check all
active frames before constructing the implicit return so nested static
subprograms cannot hide the callback context.
Global functions are verified independently with a fresh frame zero, so
an active-frame check cannot identify a global function called from a
callback. Also check the complete subprogram call graph during stack-depth
validation and reject a function containing a legacy load when any caller
is a callback. This covers global and static descendants without making
has_ld_abs transitive, preserving its per-function BTF return-type check.
Ordinary uses outside callbacks remain supported. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: zero extend the result of an arena 32-bit cmpxchg
bpf_convert_ctx_accesses() rewrites an atomic on an arena pointer from
BPF_STX | BPF_ATOMIC to BPF_STX | BPF_PROBE_ATOMIC, and it runs before
bpf_opt_subreg_zext_lo32_rnd_hi32().
That pass emits an explicit zero extension for a 32-bit cmpxchg even
when bpf_jit_needs_zext() is false. This is done because on some
architectures 32-bit cmpxchg requires explicit zero extension for the
dst register. E.g. on x86-64 'lock cmpxchg' does not change the %eax
if comparison is successful, while BPF semantics declare that each
operation on a 32-bit register zero extends it's upper half.
is_cmpxchg_insn() matches BPF_MODE == BPF_ATOMIC only, so an arena
cmpxchg misses said zero extension adjustment. This patch adjusts
is_cmpxchg_insn() to match BPF_PROBE_ATOMIC alongside BPF_ATOMIC. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mlxsw: spectrum_ptp: Fix napi_gro_receive() call from GC workqueue context
Currently mlxsw_sp1_ptp_ht_gc_collect() is run from the PTP
garbage-collection workqueue, rather than the NAPI poll context. For any
unmatched PTP entries carrying an SKB, it calls
mlxsw_sp1_ptp_unmatched_finish() -> mlxsw_sp1_ptp_packet_finish(). For
ingress packets, this calls mlxsw_sp_rx_listener_no_mark_func(). The end
of that function is the following:
skb->protocol = eth_type_trans(skb, skb->dev);
napi_gro_receive(mlxsw_skb_cb(skb)->rx_md_info.napi, skb);
The napi pointer is one that was placed in the SKB control block when the
trapped packet was received in the NAPI context. Later, when the GC reaps
the unmatched entry (up to MLXSW_SP1_PTP_HT_GC_TIMEOUT later), the call to
napi_gro_receive() mutates the NAPI instance's GRO list, which is unsafe
if the poll is running concurrently on another CPU.
In mlxsw_sp1_ptp_ht_gc_collect(), local_bh_disable() is called to prevent
softirq processing, but this only applies to the local CPU. Additionally,
its comment is stale. It states that mlxsw_sp1_ptp_unmatched_finish()
invokes netif_receive_skb(). This has not been accurate since the
referenced commit; this patch makes that comment accurate again.
mlxsw_pci_napi_devs_init() calls netif_threaded_enable() on the NAPI RX
net_device without any conditions. The NAPI instance's poll, which may be
running concurrent to the GC, is running as an independently-scheduled
kthread which may be on a different CPU. The call to local_bh_disable()
does not guard against this.
If a tx-timestamp timeout produces an unmatched entry (which can be easily
reproduced by running ptp4l and waiting for a port to reach the
UNCALIBRATED/SLAVE state) while the owning NAPI thread is in the middle of
a poll on another CPU, both sides mutate the GRO list concurrently, as
shown below:
[39.846] port 1 (swp1): MASTER to UNCALIBRATED on RS_SLAVE
list_add corruption. next->prev should be prev (ffff8d620faf4138), but was ffff8d624150f700. (next=ffff8d620faf4138).

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
The machinery that leads to this kernel panic has not been changed between
6.18.48 and mainline.
This patch adds an ingress-delivery helper for the PTP packet_finish()
path that calls netif_receive_skb() instead of napi_gro_receive().
netif_receive_skb(), unlike napi_gro_receive(), can be called from outside
of the NAPI instance's poll context, which can occur at the call site for
this path. RX stats accounting and the skb->dev assignment are still
preserved; the only change is the delivery call itself.
This removes GR

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: hsr: free learned nodes on device setup failure
hsr_dev_finalize() can fail after a lower-device RX handler has
already been registered (slave A is added before the failable slave B
and interlink adds). RX handlers run in softirq regardless of the
master's state, so frames received in that window can learn dynamic
nodes into node_db, and the error unwind never releases them.
Free both owned dynamic databases in the unwind, mirroring
hsr_dellink(). proxy_node_db is provably empty on every current error
exit (only interlink RX feeds it, and the interlink add is the last
failable step) and is freed for symmetry. The order is safe:
hsr_del_port() unregisters each RX handler with synchronize_net()
before hsr_del_nodes() runs, which removes remaining entries with
list_del_rcu() and defers their release with call_rcu() for readers
already under RCU. |

RDMA/srpt: Fix srpt_alloc_rw_ctxs() unwind counters
When srpt_alloc_rw_ctxs() fails partway through a multi-buffer indirect

n_rw_ctx and n_rdma values (and a dangling rw_ctxs pointer). Later
sq_wr_avail accounting in srpt_queue_response() or srpt_write_pending()
can then subtract the wrong number of send queue credits.

allocation before returning an error. |

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()

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. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vxlan: initialize _md in vxlan_xmit_one()
If a VXLAN device is configured with both VXLAN_F_COLLECT_METADATA and
VXLAN_F_GBP, and a packet is transmitted through it using an external
ip_tunnel_info that lacks the IP_TUNNEL_VXLAN_OPT_BIT flag, md is left
pointing to the uninitialized _md stack variable:
if (test_bit(IP_TUNNEL_VXLAN_OPT_BIT, info->key.tun_flags)) {
if (info->options_len < sizeof(*md))
goto drop;
md = ip_tunnel_info_opts(info);
}
Because IP_TUNNEL_VXLAN_OPT_BIT is not set, md is not updated and remains
pointing to _md. Later, vxlan_build_skb() is called with md, which
eventually calls vxlan_build_gbp_hdr():
if (vxflags & VXLAN_F_GBP)
vxlan_build_gbp_hdr(vxh, md);
Inside vxlan_build_gbp_hdr(), md->gbp is read:
if (!md->gbp)
return;
gbp = (struct vxlanhdr_gbp *)vxh;
...
if (md->gbp & VXLAN_GBP_DONT_LEARN)
gbp->dont_learn = 1;
If the stack contains garbage, this causes:
1) VXLAN_HF_GBP flag to be spuriously set in the VXLAN header.
2) gbp->dont_learn and gbp->policy_applied to be set from stack bits.
3) gbp->policy_id to receive 16 bits of uninitialized kernel stack data,
leaking it onto the wire.
Fix this by zero-initializing _md. If IP_TUNNEL_VXLAN_OPT_BIT is not
present, md->gbp remains 0, and vxlan_build_gbp_hdr() returns early
without modifying the VXLAN header. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: macb: destroy the phylink instance on the probe error path
macb_mii_init() creates a phylink instance on both of its success paths,
but the probe unwind frees the netdev without destroying it, so a failing
macb_alloc_tieoff() or register_netdev() leaks the instance.
Destroy it at err_out_unregister_mdio, which is only reachable once
macb_mii_init() has succeeded, so bp->phylink is valid there. |
