| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: fix use-after-free in dma_chan_put() and dma_release_channel()
When dma_device_put() drops the last reference on chan->device->ref,
dma_device_release() runs and may free the dma_device along with its
channels.
dma_chan_put() then still reads chan->device->owner via
dma_chan_to_owner() for the trailing module_put(). KASAN catches it:
slab-use-after-free in dma_chan_put+0x3e6/0x4c0
Read of size 8 by task insmod/6319
Freed by task 6319:
kfree+0x225/0x470
dma_chan_put+0x395/0x4c0
dmaengine_put+0xf8/0x160
Cache the module owner in dma_chan_put() before the put so the trailing
module_put() does not need chan->device. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: wait for RCU readers before releasing dma_device
dma_issue_pending_all() walks the dma_device_list with
list_for_each_entry_rcu() under rcu_read_lock(). dma_device_release()
unlinks the device with list_del_rcu() and then calls
device->device_release() (which in many drivers, such as plx_dma.c,
directly calls kfree()).
Because there is no grace period between unlinking the device and
freeing it, concurrent RCU readers in dma_issue_pending_all() can
access the device after it has been freed.
The lockless walk originally relied on clients holding a dmaengine
reference to pin the provider module, and therefore the device, for as
long as they might traverse the list. Commit 8ad342a86359 ("dmaengine:
Add reference counting to dma_device struct") decoupled the dma_device
lifetime from the module reference, so the device can now be released
while a reader is still walking the list.
Add synchronize_rcu() before the device is freed, so RCU readers are
guaranteed to have finished. Keep it unconditional: providers that do
not implement device_release() free the device themselves once
dma_async_device_unregister() returns. This call will delay for a grace
period with dma_list_mutex held, which is safe and only teardown path is
delayed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: cfg80211: don't free driver-owned scan requests
When an interface goes down while a scan is running, cfg80211 completes
the scan towards userspace and frees the scan request. However, the
driver can be convinced that it owns the request, since the cancellation
is (intended to be) asynchronous.
The WARN_ON() in the netdev notifier was meant to catch this, but it's
not actually avoidable, so it triggers and we get a UAF in scan_done().
There doesn't seem to be a great way around it, so just track that the
driver is still convinced it owns the request, and then just free it on
completion if it was already cancelled. Also remove the warnings since
they can trigger in the intended architecture. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: cfg80211: only group hidden BSSes with beacon entries
When a probe response for an unknown BSS comes in, __cfg80211_bss_update()
looks for an existing entry with the same BSSID and a hidden (zero-length
or NUL-filled) SSID, and if it finds one it groups them, using the beacon
IEs from the existing entry.
But that could find another entry without a beacon, if it was also from a
probe response (with SSID), so there's a group without beacon elements.
If a beacon with a hidden SSID for that BSSID arrives later,
cfg80211_combine_bsses() goes looking for the probe response entries that
belong to it - i.e. entries with the same BSSID and channel that have no
beacon IEs - and finds those two. They are already grouped with each
other, so it hits its
WARN_ON_ONCE(bss->pub.hidden_beacon_bss)
WARN_ON_ONCE(!list_empty(&bss->hidden_list))
which are there because an entry without beacon elements is not supposed
to be part of a group yet.
Only combine entries when a beacon was already received, ones that are
kept separate will be combined when a beacon arrives. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: cfg80211: don't filter by BSS type when removing stale entries
When an assoc AP switches to a channel that already has a BSS entry,
cfg80211_update_assoc_bss_entry() removes that entry before rehashing
the real one, since the two would otherwise collide in the BSS rbtree.
The lookup for that entry also required it to match the connection's BSS
type, so an entry advertising e.g. the IBSS capability bit was left in
place, and the following cfg80211_rehash_bss() then ran into it:
WARN_ON(!cmp)
Changing the type shouldn't really happen, but can be triggered by a
rogue AP/device, so drop the check and remove any entries matching
the comparison. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: cfg80211: ibss: ref BSS entry for joined event
When the IBSS is joined, we only record the BSSID/channel in the event
and look up the BSS entry when processing it. However, that's racy,
e.g. a new scan with NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_FLUSH can remove it, causing a
warning in the event work:

Do the lookup early (the driver is expected to only join an IBSS that

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: don't start a ROC while scanning
The ROC work can be pending when a scan starts (which requires
ROC list to be empty, but that's possible), and then a new ROC
can be added to the list and the work will pick it up.
Avoid starting that ROC if a scan made it between things, as
otherwise we'll hit a warning later:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: don't offload TC setup on AP_VLAN interfaces
AP_VLAN interfaces are purely virtual, so don't try to offload
TC setup to drivers. We can't really use the AP interface either
since we may not know it all the time, and it could technically
even change.
Just reject the TC offload so things get done in software. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: abort chanswitch when leaving a mesh
The code in ieee80211_stop_mesh() leaves CSA active, but leaving
the mesh released the channel context, so the CSA finalize work

wifi: mac80211: reset state when starting AP fails
ieee80211_start_ap() can set enable_beacon (and beacon_int) and fail
later, leaving it set forever. Scanning can then attempt to restore
beaconing on such an interface, leading to:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: reset the LED state when ifup fails
When the first interface comes up, the radio LED is turned on. This can
start the TPT trigger timer, which continues running.
But if bringing up the interface fails then the timer keeps running and
won't be stopped by anything, eventually it can be freed:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: only operate on TDLS peers in the TDLS code
ieee80211_tdls_oper() can operate on the AP station, which then
yields various warnings when the AP station is removed then or
at a later point in time after being confused for a TDLS peer.
Always check that the station is a TDLS peer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: unlist vifs when their netdev is unregistered
mac80211 only removes vifs from the local->interfaces list when
an interface is removed via ieee80211_if_remove(), before it
unregisters the netdev. However, it's possible for a netdev to
be unregistered without going through that: When the netns that
holds the wiphy is destroyed, the wiphy is supposed to move to
the init_ns, but that can run into allocation failures.
Then, mac80211 has an interface listed that doesn't exist, and
will eventually hit

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: cfg80211: get the wiphy out of a dying network namespace
When a network namespace is destroyed, cfg80211_pernet_exit() moves any
wiphy back to the initial namespace, and just warns if that fails. But
moving an interface can fail (due to allocation failures), and then the
wiphy is left behind with a garbage netns pointer:
Kernel mode fault at addr 0x30
genlmsg_multicast_netns.constprop.0+0x46/0xcf [cfg80211]
nl80211_notify_wiphy+0xcd/0xe8 [cfg80211]

Note that commit debac3a20dec ("net: Remove conflicting altnames for
dying netns in __dev_change_net_namespace().") fixed another path
that could reach it without allocation failures.
Remove interfaces that cannot be moved instead of failing the switch,
so that the wiphy always ends up in the initial namespace. In this
case the netdev core will unregister the interfaces anyway. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: don't allow injecting frames wider than the chanctx
Frames injected on a monitor interface can carry a radiotap
field requesting a bandwidth, which mac80211 passes down to
the driver regardless of the the actual operational bandwidth.
If the bandwidth requested is too wide, that triggers a warning
in hwsim:
WARN_ON(hwsim_get_chanwidth(bw) > hwsim_get_chanwidth(confbw))
Drop such frames entirely instead since they cannot be sent. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: add HE 6 GHz capability in the scan elems len
The HE 6 GHz Band Capability element is in the probe request for
every band if 6 GHz is supported, so add the size to scan_ies_len.
Otherwise, building probe request elements can fail, triggering the
WARN_ON in __ieee80211_start_scan(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: mesh: reset the CSA state when leaving
ifmsh->csa is allocated in ieee80211_mesh_csa_beacon() and only freed
in ieee80211_mesh_finish_csa(), i.e. when the channel switch completes.
Leaving the mesh while a switch is still pending therefore leaks it.
Additionally, ifmsh->csa_role and ifmsh->chsw_ttl have their state leak
in this case, so things can get mixed up in addition to the memory
leak.
Refactor the reset and call it in ieee80211_stop_mesh() to fix it all. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: mesh: release the channel if start fails
ieee80211_join_mesh() acquires a channel context and then calls
ieee80211_start_mesh(), which can fail. In that case, the chanctx
isn't released then interface removal will attempt to unassign it
after it's removed from the driver, hitting:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: set up the TX info early to fix failure paths
The previous commit 2c51457d930f ("wifi: mac80211: free ack status
frame on TX header build failure") cleaned up the leak, but still
left the code a bit messy and the failed SKB didn't get reported
to userspace.
Fix this up by initialising skb->cb[] earlier, which allows using
ieee80211_free_txskb() and therefore reports it for the failure
in ieee80211_build_hdr(), and unifies the ieee80211_skb_resize()
failure path with it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: pxa: fix double counting of the hw descriptors
pxad_alloc_desc() was converted from
kzalloc(struct_size(sw_desc, hw_desc, nb_hw_desc), GFP_NOWAIT)
to kzalloc_flex(), which sets the __counted_by() counter sw_desc->nb_desc
itself - but only where the compiler has __builtin_counted_by_ref(), so
from gcc 15.1 or clang 22.1 on. The loop below it still increments
nb_desc, which makes it come out doubled there and correct elsewhere.
nb_desc is what pxad_free_desc() iterates over and what
set_updater_desc() indexes from, so set it explicitly and drop the
increment. The error path has to lower it to the number of descriptors
allocated so far, otherwise pxad_free_desc() would free entries that were
never allocated. |
