batman-adv: frag: fix primary_if leak on failed linearization
If the skb has a frag_list, it must be linearized before it can be split
using skb_split(). But when this step failed, it must not only free the skb
but also take care of the reference to the already found primary_if. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
MIPS: DEC: Ensure 32-bit stack location for o32 prom_printf()
In 64-bit configurations calling any firmware entry points from a kernel
thread other than the initial one will result in a situation where the
stack has been placed in the XKPHYS 64-bit memory segment.
Consequently the stack pointer is no longer a 32-bit value and when the
32-bit firmware code called uses 32-bit ALU operations to manipulate the
stack pointer, the calculated result is incorrect (in fact in the 64-bit
MIPS ISA almost all 32-bit ALU operations will produce an unpredictable
result when executed on 64-bit data) and control goes astray.
This may happen when no final console driver has been enabled in the
configuration and consequently the initial console continues being used
late into bootstrap, or with an upcoming change that will switch the zs
driver to use a platform device, which in turn will make the console
handover happen only after other kernel threads have already been
started, and the kernel will hang at:
pid_max: default: 32768 minimum: 301
or somewhat later, but always before:
cblist_init_generic: Setting adjustable number of callback queues.
has been printed.
It seems that only the prom_printf() entry point is affected. Of all
the other entry points wired only rex_slot_address() and rex_gettcinfo()
are called from a kernel thread other than the initial one, specifically
kernel_init(), and they are leaf functions that do no business with the
stack, having worked with no issue ever since 64-bit support was added
for the platform back in 2002.
To address this issue then, arrange for the stack to be switched in the
o32 wrapper as required for prom_printf() only, by supplying call_o32()
with a pointer to a chunk of initdata space, which is placed in the
CKSEG0 32-bit compatibility segment, observing that prom_printf() is
only called from console output handler and therefore with the console
lock held, implying no need for this code to be reentrant.
Other firmware entry points may be called with interrupts enabled and no
lock held, and may therefore require that call_o32() be reentrant. They
trigger no issue at this point and "if it ain't broke, don't fix it," so
just leave them alone. |

power: supply: cpcap-battery: Fix missing nvmem_device_put() causing reference leak
In cpcap_battery_detect_battery_type(), the reference to an nvmem
device obtained via nvmem_device_find() is not released with
nvmem_device_put() on the success or read-failure paths, causing a
permanent reference leak. The driver’s retry logic on subsequent
battery property reads can compound this leak, preventing the nvmem
device from ever being freed.
Found by code review. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: avoid self-deadlock during inode eviction
An attribute-list update performed while allocating clusters can drop the
last reference to the temporary attribute inode. Evicting that inode
drops its reference to the base inode and can invoke ntfs_drop_big_inode()
for the base inode from within the base inode's own writeback path.
If the base inode is unlinked, ntfs_drop_big_inode() calls
truncate_setsize(), which waits for the inode's folio writeback to
complete. The same writeback worker is responsible for completing that
writeback, so it waits for itself indefinitely.
Prevent this self-deadlock by grabbing a reference to the base inode at the
beginning of ntfs_writepages() and releasing it at the end of the function.
This defers eviction until all bios have been submitted, allowing the wait
for folio writeback to complete safely. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: fix hole runlist memory leak in insert range error path
ntfs_non_resident_attr_insert_range() allocates hole_rl before mapping the
whole runlist. If ntfs_attr_map_whole_runlist() fails, the error path drops
ni->runlist.lock and returns without freeing hole_rl. This leaks memory
of sizeof(*hole_rl) * 2 bytes.
Fix this memory leak by freeing hole_rl before returning from
that error path, matching the later error paths in the same function. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
riscv: cacheinfo: Fix node reference leak in populate_cache_leaves
Currently, the while loop drops the reference to prev in each iteration.
If the loop terminates early due to a break, the final of_node_put(np)
correctly drops the reference to the current node.
However, if the loop terminates naturally because np == NULL, calling
of_node_put(np) is a no-op. This leaves the last valid node stored in
prev without its reference dropped, resulting in a node reference leak.
Fix this by changing the final `of_node_put(np)` to `of_node_put(prev)`. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/core: always put unsuccessfully committed target pids
damon_commit_target() puts and gets the destination and the source target
pids. It puts the destination target pid because it will be overwritten
by the source target pid. It gets the source pid because the caller is
supposed to eventually put the pids. In more detail, the caller will call
damon_destroy_ctx() after damon_commit_ctx() to destroy the entire source
context. And in this case, [f]vaddr operation set's cleanup_target()
callback will put the pids.
The commit operation is made at the context level. The operation can fail
in multiple places including in the middle and after the targets commit
operations. For any such failures, immediately the error is returned to
the damon_commit_ctx() caller. If some or all of the source target pids
were committed to the destination during the unsuccessful context commit
attempt, those pids should be put twice.
The source context will do the put operations using the above explained
routine. However, let's suppose the destination context was not
originally using [f]vaddr operation set and the commit failed before the
ops of the source context is committed. The destination does not have the
cleanup_target() ops callback, so it cannot put the pids via the
damon_destroy_ctx().
As a result, the pids are leaked. The issue in the real world would be
not very common. The commit feature is for changing parameters of running
DAMON context while inheriting internal status like the monitoring
results. The monitoring results of a physical address range ain't have
things that are beneficial to be inherited to a virtual address ranges
monitoring. So the problem-causing DAMON control would be not very common
in the real world. That said, it is a supported feature. And
damon_commit_target() failure due to memory allocation is relatively
realistic [1] if there are a huge number of target regions.
Fix by putting the pids in the commit operation in case of the failures.
The issue was discovered [2] by Sashiko. |

fs/proc/task_mmu: fix hugetlb self-deadlock in pagemap_scan_pte_hole()
A PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl requesting PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING on a hugetlb VMA hangs
the calling thread, unkillably, as soon as the scan reaches an unpopulated
part of the range:
do_pagemap_scan()
walk_page_range()
walk_hugetlb_range()
hugetlb_vma_lock_read() # take the vma lock for read ...
pagemap_scan_pte_hole() # ... ->pte_hole() for a hole
uffd_wp_range()
change_protection()
hugetlb_change_protection()
hugetlb_vma_lock_write() # ... and block taking it for write
walk_hugetlb_range() holds the hugetlb vma lock for read across the whole
walk. A present entry goes to ->hugetlb_entry(); an unpopulated one goes
to ->pte_hole(), i.e. pagemap_scan_pte_hole(). To write-protect the hole
that handler calls uffd_wp_range(), which on a hugetlb VMA reaches
hugetlb_change_protection() and takes the same vma lock for write. The
thread then blocks in down_write() waiting for the read lock it is itself
holding.
The populated path avoids this: pagemap_scan_hugetlb_entry()
write-protects the entry inline under the page-table lock and never enters
hugetlb_change_protection().
Do the same for holes. Fault in the page table and install the uffd-wp
marker directly with make_uffd_wp_huge_pte() under the page-table lock,
rather than routing through uffd_wp_range(). That is the same sequence
hugetlb_change_protection() runs for an unpopulated entry, minus the vma
write lock -- which is safe to skip because PMD sharing is disabled on
uffd-wp VMAs (hugetlb_unshare_all_pmds() runs at registration), leaving
nothing for that lock to serialise against. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/proc/task_mmu: do not warn on seeing non-migration pmd entry
Patch series "mm/hmm: A fix and a selftest", v3.
Patch 1 fixes a stale warning present from the time when only migration
softleaf entries were supported at the PMD level.
Patch 2 adds some code into hmm-tests.c which exercises the pagemap path
for PMD device-private entries.
This patch (of 2):
pagemap_pmd_range_thp() warns if a non-present PMD is not a migration
entry. This became false once device-private entries at the PMD level
were added.
Therefore, remove the stale migration-only assertion. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kho: make sure scratch size is always aligned by CMA_MIN_ALIGNMENT_BYTES
When using scratch_scale, the scratch sizes are rounded up to
CMA_MIN_ALIGNMENT_BYTES since they will be released as MIGRATE_CMA. This
is not done when using fixed scratch sizes via command line. This can
result in user specifying a size which is not aligned, and thus kernel
releasing a pageblock that is only partially scratch.
Do the rounding up for both cases in scratch_size_update(). |

ocfs2: fix NULL h_transaction deref in ocfs2_assure_trans_credits
[BUG]
A direct write over unwritten extents can panic the kernel in
ocfs2_assure_trans_credits() when the journal aborts during DIO
completion. The crash is a general protection fault from a NULL pointer
dereference.
[CAUSE]
ocfs2_dio_end_io_write() loops over a direct write's unwritten extents,
marking each written under a single journal handle. If the journal
aborts (for example after an I/O error) while the extent tree is being
updated, the handle is left aborted with its transaction pointer
cleared. The extent merge treats that failure as not critical and
reports success, so the loop keeps using the handle.
ocfs2_assure_trans_credits() reads the handle's remaining credits
without first checking whether the handle is aborted, and that read
dereferences the cleared transaction pointer.
[FIX]
A journal abort is recorded in the handle itself, so callers are
expected to test the handle rather than rely on a returned error.
Make ocfs2_assure_trans_credits() do that, as the other ocfs2 journal
helpers already do, and return -EROFS when the handle is aborted. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: add journal NULL check in ocfs2_checkpoint_inode()
During unmount, ocfs2_journal_shutdown() frees the journal and sets
osb->journal to NULL. Later, when VFS evicts remaining cached inodes,
ocfs2_evict_inode() -> ocfs2_clear_inode() -> ocfs2_checkpoint_inode()
-> ocfs2_ci_fully_checkpointed() dereferences osb->journal, causing a
NULL pointer dereference.
Fix this by adding a NULL check for osb->journal in
ocfs2_checkpoint_inode(). If the journal is NULL, it has already been
fully flushed and destroyed during shutdown, so there is nothing to
checkpoint. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
irqchip/crossbar: Use correct index in crossbar_domain_free()
crossbar_domain_free() resets the domain data and then uses the nulled
out irq_data->hwirq member as index to reset the irq_map[] entry and to
write the relevant crossbar register with a safe entry. That means it
never frees the correct index and keeps the crossbar register connection
to the source interrupt active.
If it would not reset the domain data, then this would be even worse as
irq_data->hwirq holds the source interrupt number, but both the map and
register index need the corresponding GIC SPI number and not the source
interrupt number. This might even result in an out of bounds access as
the source interrupt number can be higher than the maximal index space.
Fix this by using the GIC SPI index from the parent domain's irq_data. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: dw-edma-pcie: Reject devices without driver data
dw_edma_pcie_probe() treats the PCI device ID driver_data as the
template for the controller layout and copies it unconditionally. A
device bound dynamically via sysfs can match the driver without that
data, which leads to a NULL pointer dereference.
Reject such matches before enabling the device. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: imx: fix locked bus on SMBus block-read of 0 (atomic)
SMBus 3.1 6.5.7 allows a Block Read byte count of 0, but the atomic
(polling) path rejects it as -EPROTO. Worse, it returns without a
NACK+STOP: the next receive cycle has already started, so the target
keeps holding SDA and the bus stays stuck until a power cycle for
this i2c controller.
Reading I2DR to obtain the count likewise arms the next byte on the
count > I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX path, which also returned -EPROTO directly
and left the bus held.
Handle both: NACK the in-flight dummy byte (TXAK) and extend msgs->len so
the existing last-byte handling emits STOP; the dummy byte is discarded.
A count of 0 is a valid empty block read; a count above
I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX is still reported as -EPROTO, but only after the bus
has been released.
The interrupt-driven path has the same flaw from a later commit and is
fixed separately, as it carries a different Fixes: tag and stable range. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvme-apple: Prevent shared tags across queues on Apple A11
On Apple A11, tags of pending commands must be unique across the admin
and IO queues, else the firmware crashes with
"duplicate tag error for tag N", with N being the tag.
Apply the existing workaround for M1 of reserving two tags for the admin
queue to A11. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm-pcache: reject option groups without values
The pcache target parses optional arguments as name/value pairs. A
table that advertises one optional argument and supplies only a
recognized option name, for example "cache_mode", reaches
parse_cache_opts() with argc == 1. The parser consumes the name,
decrements argc to zero, then calls dm_shift_arg() again for the value.
dm_shift_arg() returns NULL when no arguments remain, and the following
strcmp() dereferences that NULL pointer.
Check that each recognized option has a value before consuming it. This
keeps valid "cache_mode writeback" and "data_crc true/false" tables
unchanged while making malformed tables fail during target construction
with a precise missing-value error. |

dm-integrity: fix leaking uninitialized kernel memory
If hash size is less than device's tuple size, dm-integrity is supposed
to zero the remaining space. There was a bug in the code that zeroing
didn't work. This commit fixes it. |

scsi: elx: efct: Fix I/O leak on unsupported additional CDB
efct_dispatch_fcp_cmd() allocates an efct_io before dispatching an
unsolicited FCP command. If the command has an unsupported additional
CDB, the function returns -EIO before handing the IO to the SCSI layer.
Free the allocated IO before returning from this error path. |
