| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Fix retry exhaustion in simple ring buffer reader swap
simple_ring_buffer_swap_reader_page() starts with retry set to 8 and
post-decrements it only after a failed link replacement. On the final
attempt, a successful replacement leaves retry at zero, while a failed
replacement leaves it at -1.
The current !retry test reverses both outcomes. It returns an error after
a successful final replacement, leaving the link update complete but the
reader bookkeeping unfinished. After a failed final replacement, it
falls through and updates the head and reader pointers as though the
replacement succeeded, which can corrupt the ring.
Treat only a negative counter as exhaustion and return the documented
-EBUSY error. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Fix use-after-free in trace_pipe read on sub-buffer order change
Writing to buffer_subbuf_size_kb calls ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set(),
which frees every sub-buffer of the ring buffer, including the reader
page, and replaces them with newly allocated ones.
Readers of trace_pipe hold pointers into those pages. ring_buffer_peek()
looks up an event under cpu_buffer->reader_lock but returns the event
pointer after dropping the lock, and peek_next_entry() then calls
ring_buffer_event_length() and ring_buffer_event_data() on it. If the
sub-buffer order is changed in that window, the reader dereferences
freed memory:
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ring_buffer_peek+0x3e0/0x430

Take trace_access_lock(RING_BUFFER_ALL_CPUS) around the order change.
This is the lock trace_pipe readers already hold across their entire
peek-and-print loop, so the swap can no longer race with a reader that
is dereferencing a peeked event. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Fix use-after-free with same-name named triggers
When two hist triggers on different events are registered with the same
name=, the second one reuses the first as named_data. Both are added to
tr->hist_vars by save_hist_vars() during event_hist_trigger_parse(),
because save_hist_vars() is called before event_trigger_register() while
the named reuse is only detected later, in hist_register_trigger().
In the named-data branch hist_register_trigger() then frees the second
histogram's hist_data via destroy_hist_data(), but never removes its
tr->hist_vars list entry, leaving a dangling pointer and leaking the
trace_array reference it holds.
A later hist trigger that references a variable makes find_var_file()
walk tr->hist_vars and dereference the freed hist_data. The bug is
reproducible from userspace by writing three hist triggers to tracefs:
cd /sys/kernel/tracing
echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:x=common_pid:name=mh' > events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:x=common_pid:name=mh' > events/sched/sched_process_fork/trigger
echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:vals=$x' > events/sched/sched_process_exit/trigger
The third write panics the kernel:

before freeing the hist_data. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
misc: nsm: bound the device-reported response length
nsm_sendrecv_msg_locked() stores the virtqueue used-ring length reported
by the NSM device into msg->resp.len without bounding it to the response
buffer. A malicious or buggy backend can report a length larger than the
response buffer; parse_resp_raw() then copies that many bytes out of the
fixed buffer to user space, disclosing adjacent kernel heap (an
out-of-bounds read). The request path already floors its length in
fill_req_raw(); the response path lacks the symmetric check.
Clamp the stored length to the size of the response buffer. Well-behaved
devices report no more than the posted buffer size, so conforming traffic
is unaffected. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rapidio: mport_cdev: fix use-after-free in dma_req_free()
dma_req_free() acquires buf_mutex through req->map, drops the mapping
reference with kref_put(), and then dereferences req->map again to unlock
the mutex.
If kref_put() drops the last reference, mport_release_mapping() frees the
mapping, and the subsequent mutex_unlock() dereferences a freed object.
This is a use-after-free.
Fix this by caching map and md before kref_put(), clearing req->map while
holding buf_mutex, and using the cached md for mutex unlocking.
The bug is reachable from userspace via the RapidIO mport character device
interface. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: at91_udc: drain polled-VBUS timer/work before udc is freed
In polled-VBUS mode (board.vbus_pin && board.vbus_polled), probe arms a
self-restarting cycle: at91_vbus_timer() schedules vbus_timer_work, and
at91_vbus_timer_work() calls at91_vbus_update() and re-arms the timer via
mod_timer(). Both recover the same udc through container_of and dereference
it on every iteration.
Neither teardown path cancels this cycle. udc is devm-allocated, so it is
freed after at91udc_remove() returns, and is likewise freed when probe
fails and devres runs. A timer callback or work item that is pending or
running at either point dereferences the freed udc.
Add at91_udc_shutdown_vbus_timer() and call it from at91udc_remove() and
from the usb_add_gadget_udc() failure path in probe; the remaining probe
error paths fail before the timer is armed. timer_shutdown_sync() waits
for a running callback and clears timer->function, which makes the work
handler's mod_timer() a permanent no-op; cancel_work_sync() then drains
any pending or running work whose re-arm attempt now does nothing. The
timer must be shut down first, since cancelling the work alone would let
the timer re-queue it. The guard mirrors probe: in IRQ mode the timer and
work_struct are never initialized.
This does not require a fault; a normal driver unbind can interleave with
an already queued work item.
This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: typec: thunderbolt: Disable work before freeing tbt on remove
tbt_altmode_remove() drops the plug and cable references without
draining tbt->work. The work function dereferences those references,
and can also requeue itself in its error path. The VDM callbacks can
queue the same work item.
Disable and drain tbt->work before dropping the references. This waits
for an existing invocation and prevents subsequent schedule_work()
calls from queueing it during teardown.
This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool and confirmed
by manual code review. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: u_audio: Fix use-after-free on sound card disconnect
g_audio_cleanup() invokes snd_card_free_when_closed() to initiate sound
card teardown and immediately frees the underlying struct snd_uac_chip
context. However, snd_card_free_when_closed() returns asynchronously
while ALSA control elements (kctls) remain open in userspace.
When userspace control applications access or close these open file
descriptors, kctl callbacks attempt to dereference kctl->private_data
pointing to &uac->c_prm or &uac->p_prm within the freed uac structure,
resulting in a use-after-free (UAF) memory corruption.
Fix this issue by deferring the destruction of struct snd_uac_chip until
all references to the ALSA sound card are released. Register a custom
card->private_free callback (u_audio_card_free) during g_audio_setup()
that frees uac and its associated playback/capture request and ring
buffers only when the sound card reference count drops to zero. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: uvc: fix dangling pointers in uvc_function_bind() and uvc_function_unbind()
In uvc_function_bind() error path, we use usb_ep_free_request which
uses uvc->control_req but does not set it to NULL afterwards. Thus,
uvc->control_req is a dangling pointer causing a UAF. Also we do not set
the uvc->control_buf pointer to NULL after freeing it, which is another
dangling pointer. Fix it by setting uvc->control_req to NULL after we run
usb_ep_free_request() and uvc->control_buf to NULL after kfree. Do the
same for uvc_function_unbind(). |

lib/ucs2_string.c: fix out-of-bounds read in ucs2_strnlen()
Patch series "lib/ucs2_string.c: fix out-of-bounds read in
ucs2_strnlen()", v2.
This series fixes an off-by-one out-of-bounds read in ucs2_strnlen().
The first patch is the real fix, the second patch comes as a bonus and
fixes the code indentation.
This patch (of 2):
ucs2_strnlen() checks the current character before checking whether the
caller-provided maximum length has been reached. If the input is not
NUL-terminated within that bound, the loop can read one ucs2_char_t past
the limit.
Test the length before dereferencing to prevent an off-by-one
out-of-bounds read. |

nilfs2: fix slab-out-of-bounds in nilfs_direct_propagate after truncation
Shuangpeng Bai reported that KASAN detected a slab-out-of-bounds error
in nilfs_direct_propagate() during testing.
Analysis revealed that after truncating a file, a node block immediately
below the B-tree root was not deleted. Instead, it remained in the B-tree
node cache in a dirty state. The log writer subsequently detected this
block and incorrectly invoked nilfs_direct_propagate() on it, which is
designed to handle only data blocks in direct mapping.
B-tree nodes in the cache are managed by virtual block numbers, and their
logical keys typically exceed the range expected by direct mapping.
Consequently, processing such a node as a direct mapping entry triggers
a slab-out-of-bounds access.
The root cause is that when a B-tree mapping collapses into a direct
mapping during truncation, an intermediate node block pointed to by the
root node is left behind as garbage instead of being explicitly deleted.
This resolves the issue by adding a nilfs_btree_discard() operation
to delete the remaining intermediate node block during the conversion.
A 'deform' flag is added to the bop_delete interface to explicitly signal
that the deletion is part of a mapping transformation. This allows the
B-tree mapping implementation to perform the necessary cleanup and
discarding of the residual node structure that would be otherwise be left
orphaned after the transition. |

PCI/sysfs: Fix out-of-bounds read in pci_write_legacy_io()
pci_write_legacy_io() loads 4 bytes from the kernfs write buffer
regardless of how many bytes userspace wrote:
if (count != 1 && count != 2 && count != 4)
return -EINVAL;
return pci_legacy_write(bus, off, *(u32 *)buf, count);
kernfs_fop_write_iter() allocates the buffer with kmalloc(len + 1),
so a 1-byte write to the legacy_io sysfs file allocates 2 bytes and
the unconditional u32 load reads up to 2 bytes past the end of the
allocation, which KASAN reports as a slab-out-of-bounds read.
Similarly, a 2-byte write overreads by 1 byte.
Thus, read only the number of bytes requested using get_unaligned_le16()
and get_unaligned_le32() for the 2 and 4 byte cases, interpreting the
buffer as little-endian to match the byte ordering of PCI I/O port
space.
The PowerPC implementation previously compensated for the generic
code's native-endian 32-bit load by shifting the value into place
for the 1 and 2 byte cases. The shifts were only correct on
big-endian kernels.
On little-endian PowerPC (POWER8 and later), they extracted the wrong
bytes, so a 1-byte write wrote an out-of-bounds byte instead of the
requested value. On big-endian, the native load also caused out_le16()
and out_le32() to reverse the user's bytes on the wire for 2 and 4 byte
writes. The little-endian helpers resolve both issues, so the shifts
are removed.
No changes are needed for the Alpha platform.
The legacy_io file is root-only and exists only on Alpha and PowerPC,
the two architectures that define HAVE_PCI_LEGACY. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
phy: rockchip-samsung-dcphy: fix out-of-range max_register
The PHY register block is 64KB, so with a register stride of 4 the
last accessible register sits at offset 0xfffc. max_register names
0x10000, one register past the end of the mapping: dumping the
registers through the regmap debugfs interface reads beyond the
ioremapped region and oopses on the unmapped page. The oops fires
with the regmap lock held, so later PHY operations deadlock. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ubifs: fix out-of-bounds read in signature length check
ubifs_sb_verify_signature() bounds the on-disk ubifs_sig_node->len field
before handing the signature payload to verify_pkcs7_signature(), but the
check has the wrong sign:
if (le32_to_cpu(signode->len) > snod->len + sizeof(struct ubifs_sig_node))
The signature bytes start sizeof(struct ubifs_sig_node) (UBIFS_SIG_NODE_SZ,
64 bytes) into the node, so the payload is at most
snod->len - sizeof(struct ubifs_sig_node)
bytes long. Adding the header size instead of subtracting it accepts a
declared length up to 2 * UBIFS_SIG_NODE_SZ larger than the node actually
holds -- past the end of c->sbuf, which is vmalloc(c->leb_size).
verify_pkcs7_signature() -> pkcs7_parse_message() -> asn1_ber_decoder()
is then handed that inflated length and reads beyond the allocation while
walking the DER headers. The node length comes straight from the mounted
image, so a crafted signed UBIFS image reaches this via
ubifs_read_superblock() before the signature is cryptographically checked.
snod->len is guaranteed to be >= UBIFS_SIG_NODE_SZ by the node scanner
(c->ranges[UBIFS_SIG_NODE].min_len == UBIFS_SIG_NODE_SZ), so the corrected
subtraction cannot underflow. Legitimately signed images are unaffected: a
correct superblock never declares a signature longer than the node it is
embedded in. |

zram: fix out-of-bounds access in read_block_state()
read_block_state() calculates nr_pages before taking dev_lock. If the
device is reset and reinitialized with a smaller disksize before lock
acquisition, nr_pages still describes the old table. The subsequent loop
can then call slot_lock() past the end of the newly allocated table.
Read disksize after acquiring dev_lock and checking that the device is
initialized. The read lock then keeps the table and its bound stable for
the duration of the scan. |

zram: set default primary compressor in zram_destroy_comps()
Patch series "zram: fix zram issues reported by sashiko".
Sashiko drove by and reported [1] a couple of zram issues:
a possible BUG_ON() in zlib code due to missing winbits range
validation and one possible NULL-ptr dereference in zcomp.
Both are low risk yet still worth fixing.
This patch (of 2):
zram_destroy_comps() resets all compressors and leaves them set to NULL,
including the primary one, which is invalid device state, as now
comp_algorithm_show()->strcmp() can be called on a NULL compressor. Set
default primary compressor in zram_destroy_comps(). |

NFS: fix delegation_hash_table leak when nfs4_server_common_setup() fails
nfs4_server_common_setup() allocates server->delegation_hash_table
first, but server->destroy - the only path that frees the table via
nfs4_destroy_server() - is not assigned until the very end of the
function. If any intermediate step fails (the is_ds_only_client()
check, nfs4_init_session(), nfs4_get_rootfh(), or nfs_probe_server()),
the function returns with server->destroy still NULL, so the caller's
nfs_free_server() skips the destroy callback and the hash table is
leaked (4 KiB per attempt with the default delegation watermark).
This is trivially reachable from userspace: every failed NFSv4 mount
leaks one allocation. A client that persistently retries a mount that
cannot succeed leaks kernel memory without bound. Observed in
production where a Longhorn backup poller retried mount.nfs4 against
an NFSv3-only server roughly 10 times per second, leaking ~3.4 GiB of
unreclaimable slab (kmalloc-rnd-13-4k) per day; the node accumulated
12 GiB of leaked slab before the source was identified via the
kmem:kmalloc tracepoint (call_site=nfs4_delegation_hash_alloc).
Reproducer:
# server exports NFSv3 only (or export path absent for v4)
while :; do mount -t nfs4 <server>:/missing /mnt; done
# watch SUnreclaim in /proc/meminfo grow 4 KiB per iteration
Free the table on the error paths between the allocation and the
assignment of server->destroy. |

NFSD: restart ssc_expire_umount walk after dropping nfsd_ssc_lock
nfsd4_ssc_expire_umount() walks nn->nfsd_ssc_mount_list with
list_for_each_entry_safe(ni, tmp, ...). For each expired entry it
sets nsui_busy = true, drops nfsd_ssc_lock to run mntput() on the
source vfsmount, then reacquires the lock to list_del + kfree the
entry and continue iterating via the macro's saved tmp pointer.
The nsui_busy flag protects the current ni from concurrent
nfsd4_ssc_setup_dul() finders during the lock-drop window, but it
does not pin tmp. Another nfsd RPC thread that fails its source-
server mount and reaches nfsd4_ssc_cancel_dul() will, during that
same window, take nfsd_ssc_lock, list_del + kfree its own ssc_umount
item, and release the lock. If that item is the saved tmp of the
expire walk, the next iteration dereferences a freed
nfsd4_ssc_umount_item.
Restart the walk from the head after the mntput() unlock window so
no saved next pointer survives the lock-drop. The list is bounded
by the number of active inter-server source mounts (typically small)
and the expire delayed-work runs periodically rather than per-IO,
so the restart is cheap. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
lockd, nfsd: RCU-protect nlmsvc_ops dispatch
nlmsvc_ops is published by nfsd_lockd_init() and cleared by
nfsd_lockd_shutdown() with plain stores, while lockd dereferences
it unguarded from dispatch sites in fs/lockd/svcsubs.c. The pointer
targets nfsd's .rodata and the fopen/fclose callbacks live in nfsd's
.text, so a stale load after rmmod nfsd results in either a NULL
deref or a module-text use-after-free.
Declare nlmsvc_ops as __rcu, publish via rcu_assign_pointer(), clear
via RCU_INIT_POINTER() + synchronize_rcu(). Add a struct module
*owner field to nlmsvc_binding and pin the module across indirect
calls with try_module_get/module_put. When the binding is torn down,
fall back to fput() to avoid leaking struct file references. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: Reset write verifier when async COPY writeback fails
Async COPY captures nn->writeverf at request time and reports it to
the client via CB_OFFLOAD after the worker kthread completes. When
the post-copy vfs_fsync_range() or filemap_check_wb_err() in
_nfsd_copy_file_range() reports an error, the worker correctly
leaves NFSD4_COPY_F_COMMITTED clear so that CB_OFFLOAD encodes
wr_stable_how as NFS_UNSTABLE, but the server's write verifier is
not rotated.
A client that receives NFS_UNSTABLE in CB_OFFLOAD follows up with
COMMIT to make the copied data durable. With the verifier
unchanged, COMMIT returns the same value the client just received
via CB_OFFLOAD, and the client concludes the copy is durable --
silently dropping the data whose writeback in fact failed. This
violates the UNSTABLE+COMMIT durability contract (RFC 7862 section
15.1, RFC 8881 section 18.32) and matches the bug just fixed in
nfsd_vfs_write() and nfsd_commit().
Rotate nn->writeverf at the writeback-failure site. The async COPY
worker has no svc_rqst, so commit_reset_write_verifier() is not
available here; calling nfsd_reset_write_verifier() directly
mirrors the trace-less reset already used by
nfsd_file_check_write_error() for the same purpose. Filter out
-EAGAIN and -ESTALE, matching commit_reset_write_verifier(), since
neither indicates a durable-storage failure. |
