CVSS v3.1 |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bnxt: ring the doorbell when SW USO exits early
When a burst of packets is handed down to the driver, the driver defers
the doorbell to the end by setting txr->kick_pending = 1. The normal TX
path handles this, but the SW USO path can miss it if it returns
early.
If bnxt_sw_udp_gso_xmit runs but returns early with NETDEV_TX_BUSY and
txr->kick_pending was previously set to 1, then the TX queue can
stall because the driver wrote some BDs but never wrote the doorbell.
The device won't know to do the TX which would generate the completion
that would wake the queue back up.
Simplify bnxt_sw_udp_gso_xmit to set txr->kick_pending in its success
case and check the flag on return. The added check after
bnxt_sw_udp_gso_xmit returns ensures that any pending doorbells are
written handling both successful USO and any early returns, which
prevents the TX queue stall mentioned above.
This TX queue stall was observed on a production system with a netdev TX
watchdog informing about the queue stall. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ipa: fix stalled modem TX queue after runtime resume
ipa_start_xmit() unconditionally stops the TX queue before calling
pm_runtime_get(), relying on the wake scheduled by runtime resume
(ipa_modem_wake_queue_work()) to restart it once power is ACTIVE.
But that work is queued from within the runtime resume callback,
before the device's power state reaches RPM_ACTIVE, so it can run
while the device is still RPM_RESUMING. The wake is then consumed
too early: the transmit it restarts stops the queue again,
pm_runtime_get() returns -EINPROGRESS without arranging any future
wake (deferred_resume exists only for RPM_SUSPENDING), and after the
resume completes nothing is left to wake the queue. Transmit stalls
permanently: packets pile up in the qdisc behind the stopped queue,
the device runtime-suspends, and since the netdev registers no
ndo_tx_timeout the watchdog never fires. Observed on SM7635
(Fairphone 6) as the cellular data path going permanently deaf
within hours, RX included, since nothing resumes the suspended
endpoints.
Close the window by making the wake work wait for the resume to
complete (pm_runtime_get_sync()) before waking the queue. Every
queue stop is then guaranteed a later wake that happens while power
is ACTIVE; a transmit racing a new suspend/resume cycle re-schedules
the work. If the device could not be resumed, wake the queue anyway
so pending packets are dropped by the transmit path rather than
stranded.
The STARTED power flag used to narrow this window: a wake running
before the transmit path's stop suppressed that stop, but only once,
as the flag was cleared by the first stop it absorbed. Removing the
flag made a single transmit during an in-flight resume sufficient to
strand the queue, which is the form observed.
With an accelerated reproducer (autosuspend delay shortened to 5 ms,
~20 packets/s of TX), an unpatched kernel stalled three times in
230 s / 4380 packets; with this patch the same test ran 3601 s /
70298 packets without a stall. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: l2tp: do not propagate multicast notification errors
The tunnel create, tunnel modify, session create, and session modify
netlink handlers send multicast notifications through helpers that can fail
while allocating or encoding a message, or while multicasting it.
For tunnel and session create/modify, a notification is sent after the live
operation has completed. Returning a best-effort notification error as the
command result can therefore report failure for an operation that already
committed and can cause callers to retry and accumulate live objects.
Keep sending notifications for listener visibility, but do not propagate
their best-effort status as the command result. This also keeps the tunnel
modify command consistent with the other notification-only paths. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mctp: hold a reference to the route device in mctp_route_lookup()
mctp_route_lookup() uses rt->dev without holding a reference on it.
mctp_route_lookup_single() returns the route under RCU only, so the
route's device can be torn down concurrently: mctp_dev_put() drops the
last reference and synchronously kfree()s mdev->addrs. mctp_dev_saddr()
then reads rt->dev->addrs[0], giving a use-after-free reachable by an
unprivileged local AF_MCTP user on the receive/forwarding path (no
CAP_NET_RAW required):

In the same window mctp_dst_from_route() -> mctp_dev_hold() also
increments a refcount that has already reached zero
("refcount_t: addition on 0 ... mctp_dev_hold").
This reintroduces the use-after-free class of CVE-2023-3439: the source
address lookup was moved ahead of the point where the destination takes
its device reference.
Take a reference with refcount_inc_not_zero() before touching rt->dev,
skip a device that is already dead, and drop the reference once the
destination has taken its own. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: openvswitch: fix flow mask use-after-free on flow deletion
The commit in the Fixes tag below made so flow->mask free is scheduled
via RCU right after it is removed from the flow table. The pointer
stays in the flow structure and it can be accessible while in the same
RCU critical section. This is done to avoid requiring ovs_mutex for
the ovs_flow_free().
However, while removing the flow during processing of CMD_DEL, we do
not take RCU read lock before the removal, and ovs_flow_cmd_fill_info()
uses the flow->mask pointer afterwards. The RCU read lock is taken,
but it's already late at that point. The comment on that line
acknowledges that the lock is cosmetic and doesn't serve a real purpose.
This leads to use-after-free if the RCU grace period passes between
removal and the filling. It is a short race window, but it is there
and can lead to a real crash in case memory allocation for the info
takes a bit longer:

ovs_flow_tbl_remove() must be called after the ovs_flow_cmd_fill_info()
to avoid this race. This also helps with cleaning up the forced cast
and the cosmetic RCU read lock. Before the commit in the Fixes tag the
order did not matter as long as the flow object itself was not freed.
A wider RCU critical section could be another option, but we have a
GFP_KERNEL allocation in the way.
Reported by Trend Micro's Zero Day Initiative as ZDI-CAN-32042. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: phylink: correctly validate returned PCS in phylink_inband_caps
In phylink_inband_caps(), the PCS returned by mac_select_pcs is only
checked if NULL but mac_select_pcs can also return an error pointer.
This can cause a kernel panic as phylink_pcs_inband_caps() only checks
if passed PCS is not NULL and directly dereference ops from the phylink_pcs
struct.
Use the IS_ERR_OR_NULL macro to address both case where the returned
PCS can be NULL or an error pointer and prevent a kernel panic. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ravb: avoid dereferencing an invalid PTP clock
The PTP clock is unavailable before the first open, so querying its
index can dereference a NULL pointer. Registration failures can also
leave an error pointer in priv->ptp.clock.
Cache the PHC index separately and report -1 while no clock is
registered. Normalize registration errors to NULL and preserve the
static timestamping capabilities. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: thunderbolt: Release the Rx HopID that was handed out on mismatch
tb_xdomain_alloc_in_hopid() passes the wanted HopID to ida_alloc_range()
as the lower bound, so a taken id is not an error there: the allocator
returns the next free one above it. tbnet_connected_work() asks for the
peer's transmit path, treats any other id as a failure and returns
without releasing what it got, so that allocation stays live for the rest
of the XDomain connection with nothing left holding a reference to it.
Release the id when it is not the one we asked for, the same way the
error unwind at the end of the function releases the expected one. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NTB: ntb_transport: Fail TX enqueue when the QP link is down
Commit f195a1a6fe41 ("ntb: Drop packets when qp link is down") meant to
make ntb_transport_tx_enqueue() drop packets submitted while the QP link
is down, but it only returns 0 without consuming the packet. Zero means
success by this function's contract, so ntb_netdev reports NETDEV_TX_OK
and forgets the skb: nothing queued it, nothing frees it, and it leaks,
one skb for every transmit racing a link-down.
Return -ENOLINK instead, restoring the contract that a non-zero return
leaves the buffer owned by the caller. With the preceding patch,
ntb_netdev frees the skb on non-retryable enqueue failures and returns
NETDEV_TX_OK, so a packet racing with link-down is dropped without leaking
or entering a busy retry loop. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NTB: ntb_transport: Reject oversized TX buffers
ntb_process_tx() handles an oversized buffer by calling tx_handler()
with a NULL data pointer and returning success. ntb_netdev therefore
neither frees the skb in its completion callback nor takes its enqueue
error path, leaking it.
Reject oversized buffers in ntb_transport_tx_enqueue() before acquiring
a queue entry and return -EMSGSIZE. The caller retains ownership of the
buffer, and the preceding netdev patch frees the skb when enqueue
returns this permanent error. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: bound the peer rkey counts in SMC-Rv2 LLC messages
On a link whose device has max_recv_sge == 1 there is no shared v2 receive
buffer, and smc_llc_save_add_link_rkeys() takes the v2 extension from 44
bytes past the start of the queue entry's inline message:
ext = (struct smc_llc_msg_add_link_v2_ext *)(llc_msg + SMC_WR_TX_SIZE);
The entry is a 72-byte allocation and the extension starts at offset 68, so
ext->num_rkeys at offset 94 is already past it. This happens on every
SMC-Rv2 link addition, whatever the peer sends:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: carry oversized SMC-Rv2 LLC messages in the queue entry
smc_llc_rmt_delete_rkey() and smc_llc_save_add_link_rkeys() read the part
of a v2 message that does not fit into the 44-byte union smc_llc_msg, and
both bound themselves by the size of the buffer it landed in, not by what
arrived. On a link with a shared v2 receive buffer a 44-byte
DELETE_RKEY_V2 declaring 255 rkeys reaches rkey[9..254] in whatever an
earlier message left in lgr->wr_rx_buf_v2, and passes each of them to
smc_rtoken_delete(). One of those 255 matched a registered rtoken and
deleted it. An ADD_LINK on such a link installs up to 255 rtokens from
the same bytes.
Copy the tail into the queue entry, so its length is the length of the
message that arrived, and declare the rkeys that fit inline as a member of
the union instead of reaching them through a cast. The same
DELETE_RKEY_V2 now processes the 9 rkeys it carries. The copy is limited
to the longest tail the two functions can read, so the peer does not pick
the size of the entry.
The bound the previous patch placed on links without a shared v2 receive
buffer is no longer needed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: fix socket refcount leak in smc_switch_conns()
smc_switch_conns() takes a reference on the SMC socket before dropping
lgr->conns_lock, so the connection stays alive while the CDC slot is
fetched:
sock_hold(&smc->sk);
read_unlock_bh(&lgr->conns_lock);
/* pre-fetch buffer outside of send_lock, might sleep */
rc = smc_cdc_get_free_slot(conn, to_lnk, &wr_buf, NULL, &pend);
if (rc)
goto err_out;
The err_out label only drops the wr_tx link reference, so this early exit
returns without the matching sock_put(). The second error exit is not
affected, because sock_put() has already run by then.
A leaked sk_refcnt means the smc_sock is never destroyed. Its send and
receive buffers stay allocated, and for a user socket the reference held
on the network namespace is never released, so the netns can no longer be
torn down.
smc_cdc_get_free_slot() fails when the target link goes down or when the
connection has been killed while the switch is in progress. Both are
reachable during the link failover this function implements, so the leak
is triggered by the same hardware events that make smc_switch_conns() run
in the first place.
Restructure so there is a single sock_put() covering both outcomes,
instead of adding a second one to the error path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: fix use-after-free of the LLC qentry in smc_llc_srv_add_link()
smc_llc_srv_add_link() keeps add_llc pointing into the queue entry:
add_llc = &qentry->msg.add_link; smc_llc.c:1482
...
smc_llc_save_add_link_info(link_new, add_llc); smc_llc.c:1494
smc_llc_flow_qentry_del(&lgr->llc_flow_lcl); smc_llc.c:1495
...
u8 *llc_msg = smc_link_shared_v2_rxbuf(link) ?
(u8 *)lgr->wr_rx_buf_v2 : (u8 *)add_llc; smc_llc.c:1504
smc_llc_save_add_link_rkeys(link, link_new, llc_msg); smc_llc.c:1506
smc_llc_flow_qentry_del() kfree()s the entry, so on a link without a shared
v2 receive buffer the pointer handed to smc_llc_save_add_link_rkeys() is
already freed. Before the Fixes: commit that branch always used
lgr->wr_rx_buf_v2 and add_llc was not used after the free.
Reproduced on an unpatched tree over rxe, with KASAN, kasan_multi_shot
and a link forced to max_recv_sge == 1: the entry is freed and read by
the same call, and the freeing frame is smc_llc_srv_add_link() itself.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: stop killed, freed and out_of_sync sharing a byte
The three connection state flags are single-bit bitfields, so they occupy
one byte of struct smc_connection and every store to one is a
read-modify-write of the other two:
u8 killed : 1;
u8 freed : 1;
u8 out_of_sync : 1;
They are not written under a common lock. smc_cdc_msg_validate() sets
out_of_sync from the receive tasklet, while smc_conn_kill() sets killed
from process context under lock_sock(), and the receive path does not defer
to the backlog when the socket is owned -- smc_cdc_msg_recv() takes only
bh_lock_sock().
Give each flag its own byte so a store no longer touches its neighbours.
All readers test them as booleans and are unchanged. struct smc_connection
grows by two bytes. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: unregister the connection before draining the rx tasklet
smc_conn_free() calls smc_ism_unset_conn() only while the link group is
still on its device list, and never sets conn->killed.
smc_lgr_terminate_sched() unlinks the group immediately and defers killing
its connections to a work item, so a connection freed in that window keeps
its smcd->conn[] slot with both gates in smcd_handle_irq() open, and the
device can re-arm the receive tasklet after tasklet_kill() has returned. On
the DMB-nocopy path the ghost send buffer is freed right after that drain,
so the re-armed tasklet dereferences it.
Unregister unconditionally and drain before the detach at both teardown
sites, mirroring rmb_desc, which smc_buf_unuse() releases after the drain.
Clear conn->sndbuf_desc before freeing it as well, so a reader that samples
the pointer cannot get one that is already freed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: skbuff: don't touch shared zerocopy state in skb_tx_error()
skb_tx_error() completes the zerocopy uarg and clears
SKBFL_ALL_ZEROCOPY, and skb_zcopy_downgrade_managed() clears
SKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS. Both live in skb_shinfo(), which every clone
shares, while the caller only owns the reference it is about to drop.
Through a clone it tells the producer its pages are free and drops
SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG for an skb that is still in flight.
Open vSwitch reaches this with a non-last OVS_ACTION_ATTR_RECIRC:
clone_execute() sends a skb_clone() into ovs_dp_process_packet() while
do_execute_actions() keeps forwarding the original, and skb_clone()
does not privatise the frags here -- skb_orphan_frags() returns early
on SKBFL_DONT_ORPHAN. A flow miss on the clone then strips the marker
from the packet still being forwarded, and a later local ESP delivery
decrypts in place over frags it does not own privately.
Skip it for a cloned skb. Nothing is lost: skb_release_data() clears
the zerocopy state once the last reference to the shared data goes. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mfd: qnap-mcu: keep the reply buffer alive past a command timeout
qnap_mcu_exec() publishes an on-stack buffer to the receive path:
unsigned char rx[QNAP_MCU_RX_BUFFER_SIZE];
...
reply->data = rx;
reply->length = length;
and qnap_mcu_receive_buf() writes into it from the serdev receive path,
which runs out of flush_to_ldisc() and is not serialized against
qnap_mcu_exec() at all. bus_lock cannot cover it, because qnap_mcu_exec()
holds that mutex across wait_for_completion_timeout().
On a timeout qnap_mcu_exec() returns with reply->data still pointing at
its own frame. A reply that arrives late, or an unsolicited message from
the MCU, is then written into a stack frame that has been left, corrupting
whatever runs next on that stack. The same applies when qnap_mcu_write()
fails, since that path returns without touching the reply state either.
Move the receive buffer into struct qnap_mcu. It is 37 bytes and the
structure is devm_kzalloc()ed, so it lives as long as the driver, and a
late write lands in memory that is still valid and is reinitialized by the
next command. bus_lock keeps commands from sharing it.
This deliberately does not clear reply->data or reply->length on the
timeout path. Doing so races with qnap_mcu_receive_buf(), which reads both
after its
if (!reply->length)
return size;
check: clearing reply->data gives a NULL dereference, and clearing
reply->length alone removes the reply->received == reply->length exit
condition, so the copy loop runs until the uart chunk is consumed and
overruns the buffer. Leaving both set keeps the write bounded by
reply->length, which qnap_mcu_exec() has already checked against
sizeof(mcu->rx). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: bcd2000: clear the URB pointers on disconnect
bcd2000_free_usb_related_resources() frees both URBs and leaves the
pointers behind:
usb_kill_urb(bcd2k->midi_out_urb);
usb_kill_urb(bcd2k->midi_in_urb);
usb_free_urb(bcd2k->midi_out_urb);
usb_free_urb(bcd2k->midi_in_urb);
The rawmidi device outlives that call. A substream that is still open
when the device is unplugged reaches bcd2000_midi_send() from the
trigger path on close. That function writes to the freed URB and then
hands it to the USB core:
bcd2k->midi_out_urb->transfer_buffer_length = BUFSIZE;
...
ret = usb_submit_urb(bcd2k->midi_out_urb, GFP_ATOMIC);
usb_kill_urb() does not stop a later submission either, so a submit that
races the disconnect can requeue the URB after it has been reaped.
midi_in_urb is exposed the same way: bcd2000_input_complete() resubmits
it from the completion handler.
KASAN on 7.2.0-rc5 (arm64):
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in bcd2000_midi_send [snd_bcd2000]

Read of size 8 at addr ffff00001827d3b8 by task bpoc/168
Clear both pointers after freeing and test them on the paths that can
still run. Poison the URBs before freeing them: usb_poison_urb() waits
for a running completion handler and rejects any later submission, so
after it returns the input path is quiesced and only the rawmidi trigger
path can still reach bcd2000_midi_send(). No unpoison is needed; the
URBs are freed on the next line.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: FCP: do not copy out an uninitialised init response
fcp_ioctl_init() allocates its response buffer with kmalloc() and copies
the whole buffer back to userspace:
buf_size = init.step0_resp_size + init.step2_resp_size;
void *resp __free(kfree) =
kmalloc(buf_size, GFP_KERNEL);
...
if (copy_to_user(arg->resp, resp, buf_size))
return -EFAULT;
Nothing clears the buffer, and the only writer of its leading
step0_resp_size bytes is the step-0 control transfer:
err = snd_usb_ctl_msg(dev, usb_rcvctrlpipe(dev, 0),
FCP_USB_REQ_STEP0,
USB_RECIP_INTERFACE | USB_TYPE_CLASS | USB_DIR_IN,
0, private->bInterfaceNumber,
step0_resp, private->step0_resp_size);
if (err < 0)
return err;
usb_fill_control_urb() does not set URB_SHORT_NOT_OK, so a short or
zero-length data stage completes with status 0 and snd_usb_ctl_msg()
returns a small actual_length. The only check is err < 0, so a short
transfer is accepted as success.
snd_usb_ctl_msg() copies the full size back unconditionally:
buf = kmemdup(data, size, GFP_KERNEL);
...
memcpy(data, buf, size);
Bytes the device never wrote are therefore restored into resp unchanged
and copied to userspace. step0_resp_size and step2_resp_size are each
validated only to 1..255, so the caller also picks the slab cache, from
kmalloc-8 up to kmalloc-512.
On 7.2.0-rc5 (arm64), device answering step 0 with a zero-length data
stage, s0 = s2 = 255:
# init_on_alloc off, no spray
step0 window [0,255): nonzero=94/255
000: 00 80 60 06 00 00 ff ff 18 00 00 00 57 01 ea 01
010: 08 78 22 13 00 00 ff ff a8 c4 5f 80 00 80 ff ff
# same kernel, kmalloc-512 pre-seeded with an 8-byte tag
step0 window [0,255): nonzero=219/255 tagbytes=232
# identical run, init_on_alloc=1
step0 window [0,255): nonzero=0/255 tagbytes=0
# all three runs
step2 window [255,510): device words matched=62/62
a8 c4 5f 80 00 80 ff ff is the little-endian kernel text address
ffff8000805fc4a8. The step-2 window is unaffected, so the disclosure is
exactly the step-0 region.
Zero the buffer, and require the step-0 transfer to deliver the full
step0_resp_size bytes so a short data stage is reported as an error.
