In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
platform/x86: x86-android-tablets: Unregister devices in reverse order
Not all subsystems support a device getting removed while there are
still consumers of the device with a reference to the device.
One example of this is the regulator subsystem. If a regulator gets
unregistered while there are still drivers holding a reference
a WARN() at drivers/regulator/core.c:5829 triggers, e.g.:
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 1587 at drivers/regulator/core.c:5829 regulator_unregister

x86_android_tablet_remove
On the Lenovo Yoga Tablet 2 series the bq24190 charger chip also provides
a 5V boost converter output for powering USB devices connected to the micro
USB port, the bq24190-charger driver exports this as a Vbus regulator.
On the 830 (8") and 1050 ("10") models this regulator is controlled by
a platform_device and x86_android_tablet_remove() removes platform_device-s
before i2c_clients so the consumer gets removed first.
But on the 1380 (13") model there is a lc824206xa micro-USB switch
connected over I2C and the extcon driver for that controls the regulator.
The bq24190 i2c-client *must* be registered first, because that creates
the regulator with the lc824206xa listed as its consumer. If the regulator
has not been registered yet the lc824206xa driver will end up getting
a dummy regulator.
Since in this case both the regulator provider and consumer are I2C
devices, the only way to ensure that the consumer is unregistered first
is to unregister the I2C devices in reverse order of in which they were
created.
For consistency and to avoid similar problems in the future change
x86_android_tablet_remove() to unregister all device types in reverse
order.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/pseries: Enforce hcall result buffer validity and size
plpar_hcall(), plpar_hcall9(), and related functions expect callers to
provide valid result buffers of certain minimum size. Currently this
is communicated only through comments in the code and the compiler has
no idea.
For example, if I write a bug like this:
long retbuf[PLPAR_HCALL_BUFSIZE]; // should be PLPAR_HCALL9_BUFSIZE
plpar_hcall9(H_ALLOCATE_VAS_WINDOW, retbuf, ...);
This compiles with no diagnostics emitted, but likely results in stack
corruption at runtime when plpar_hcall9() stores results past the end
of the array. (To be clear this is a contrived example and I have not
found a real instance yet.)
To make this class of error less likely, we can use explicitly-sized
array parameters instead of pointers in the declarations for the hcall
APIs. When compiled with -Warray-bounds[1], the code above now
provokes a diagnostic like this:
error: array argument is too small;
is of size 32, callee requires at least 72 [-Werror,-Warray-bounds]
60 | plpar_hcall9(H_ALLOCATE_VAS_WINDOW, retbuf,
| ^ ~~~~~~
[1] Enabled for LLVM builds but not GCC for now. See commit
0da6e5fd6c37 ("gcc: disable '-Warray-bounds' for gcc-13 too") and
related changes.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: mtk-vcodec: potential null pointer deference in SCP
The return value of devm_kzalloc() needs to be checked to avoid
NULL pointer deference. This is similar to CVE-2022-3113.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: do not create EA inode under buffer lock
ext4_xattr_set_entry() creates new EA inodes while holding buffer lock
on the external xattr block. This is problematic as it nests all the
allocation locking (which acquires locks on other buffers) under the
buffer lock. This can even deadlock when the filesystem is corrupted and
e.g. quota file is setup to contain xattr block as data block. Move the
allocation of EA inode out of ext4_xattr_set_entry() into the callers.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: remove clear SB_INLINECRYPT flag in default_options
In f2fs_remount, SB_INLINECRYPT flag will be clear and re-set.
If create new file or open file during this gap, these files
will not use inlinecrypt. Worse case, it may lead to data
corruption if wrappedkey_v0 is enable.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Avoid hw_desc array overrun in dw-axi-dmac
I have a use case where nr_buffers = 3 and in which each descriptor is composed by 3
segments, resulting in the DMA channel descs_allocated to be 9. Since axi_desc_put()
handles the hw_desc considering the descs_allocated, this scenario would result in a
kernel panic (hw_desc array will be overrun).
To fix this, the proposal is to add a new member to the axi_dma_desc structure,
where we keep the number of allocated hw_descs (axi_desc_alloc()) and use it in
axi_desc_put() to handle the hw_desc array correctly.
Additionally I propose to remove the axi_chan_start_first_queued() call after completing
the transfer, since it was identified that unbalance can occur (started descriptors can
be interrupted and transfer ignored due to DMA channel not being enabled).
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
MIPS: Octeon: Add PCIe link status check
The standard PCIe configuration read-write interface is used to
access the configuration space of the peripheral PCIe devices
of the mips processor after the PCIe link surprise down, it can
generate kernel panic caused by "Data bus error". So it is
necessary to add PCIe link status check for system protection.
When the PCIe link is down or in training, assigning a value
of 0 to the configuration address can prevent read-write behavior
to the configuration space of peripheral PCIe devices, thereby
preventing kernel panic.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: imx: Introduce timeout when waiting on transmitter empty
By waiting at most 1 second for USR2_TXDC to be set, we avoid a potential
deadlock.
In case of the timeout, there is not much we can do, so we simply ignore
the transmitter state and optimistically try to continue.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tty: add the option to have a tty reject a new ldisc
... and use it to limit the virtual terminals to just N_TTY. They are
kind of special, and in particular, the "con_write()" routine violates
the "writes cannot sleep" rule that some ldiscs rely on.
This avoids the
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/printk/printk.c:2659
when N_GSM has been attached to a virtual console, and gsmld_write()
calls con_write() while holding a spinlock, and con_write() then tries
to get the console lock.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mips: bmips: BCM6358: make sure CBR is correctly set
It was discovered that some device have CBR address set to 0 causing
kernel panic when arch_sync_dma_for_cpu_all is called.
This was notice in situation where the system is booted from TP1 and
BMIPS_GET_CBR() returns 0 instead of a valid address and
!!(read_c0_brcm_cmt_local() & (1 << 31)); not failing.
The current check whether RAC flush should be disabled or not are not
enough hence lets check if CBR is a valid address or not.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: idxd: Fix possible Use-After-Free in irq_process_work_list
Use list_for_each_entry_safe() to allow iterating through the list and
deleting the entry in the iteration process. The descriptor is freed via
idxd_desc_complete() and there's a slight chance may cause issue for
the list iterator when the descriptor is reused by another thread
without it being deleted from the list.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: do not leave a dangling sk pointer, when socket creation fails
It is possible to trigger a use-after-free by:
* attaching an fentry probe to __sock_release() and the probe calling the
bpf_get_socket_cookie() helper
* running traceroute -I 1.1.1.1 on a freshly booted VM

KVM: Fix a data race on last_boosted_vcpu in kvm_vcpu_on_spin()
Use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() to access kvm->last_boosted_vcpu to ensure the
loads and stores are atomic. In the extremely unlikely scenario the
compiler tears the stores, it's theoretically possible for KVM to attempt
to get a vCPU using an out-of-bounds index, e.g. if the write is split
into multiple 8-bit stores, and is paired with a 32-bit load on a VM with
257 vCPUs:
CPU0 CPU1
last_boosted_vcpu = 0xff;
(last_boosted_vcpu = 0x100)
last_boosted_vcpu[15:8] = 0x01;
i = (last_boosted_vcpu = 0x1ff)

mm: huge_memory: fix misused mapping_large_folio_support() for anon folios
When I did a large folios split test, a WARNING "[ 5059.122759][ T166]
Cannot split file folio to non-0 order" was triggered. But the test cases
are only for anonmous folios. while mapping_large_folio_support() is only
reasonable for page cache folios.
In split_huge_page_to_list_to_order(), the folio passed to
mapping_large_folio_support() maybe anonmous folio. The folio_test_anon()
check is missing. So the split of the anonmous THP is failed. This is
also the same for shmem_mapping(). We'd better add a check for both. But
the shmem_mapping() in __split_huge_page() is not involved, as for
anonmous folios, the end parameter is set to -1, so (head[i].index >= end)
is always false. shmem_mapping() is not called.
Also add a VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() in mapping_large_folio_support() for anon
mapping, So we can detect the wrong use more easily.
THP folios maybe exist in the pagecache even the file system doesn't
support large folio, it is because when CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE is
enabled, khugepaged will try to collapse read-only file-backed pages to
THP. But the mapping does not actually support multi order large folios
properly.
Using /sys/kernel/debug/split_huge_pages to verify this, with this patch,
large anon THP is successfully split and the warning is ceased.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm: shmem: fix getting incorrect lruvec when replacing a shmem folio
When testing shmem swapin, I encountered the warning below on my machine.
The reason is that replacing an old shmem folio with a new one causes
mem_cgroup_migrate() to clear the old folio's memcg data. As a result,
the old folio cannot get the correct memcg's lruvec needed to remove
itself from the LRU list when it is being freed. This could lead to
possible serious problems, such as LRU list crashes due to holding the
wrong LRU lock, and incorrect LRU statistics.
To fix this issue, we can fallback to use the mem_cgroup_replace_folio()
to replace the old shmem folio.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/page_table_check: fix crash on ZONE_DEVICE
Not all pages may apply to pgtable check. One example is ZONE_DEVICE
pages: they map PFNs directly, and they don't allocate page_ext at all
even if there's struct page around. One may reference
devm_memremap_pages().
When both ZONE_DEVICE and page-table-check enabled, then try to map some
dax memories, one can trigger kernel bug constantly now when the kernel
was trying to inject some pfn maps on the dax device:
kernel BUG at mm/page_table_check.c:55!
While it's pretty legal to use set_pxx_at() for ZONE_DEVICE pages for page
fault resolutions, skip all the checks if page_ext doesn't even exist in
pgtable checker, which applies to ZONE_DEVICE but maybe more.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu: Return right value in iommu_sva_bind_device()
iommu_sva_bind_device() should return either a sva bond handle or an
ERR_PTR value in error cases. Existing drivers (idxd and uacce) only
check the return value with IS_ERR(). This could potentially lead to
a kernel NULL pointer dereference issue if the function returns NULL
instead of an error pointer.
In reality, this doesn't cause any problems because iommu_sva_bind_device()
only returns NULL when the kernel is not configured with CONFIG_IOMMU_SVA.
In this case, iommu_dev_enable_feature(dev, IOMMU_DEV_FEAT_SVA) will
return an error, and the device drivers won't call iommu_sva_bind_device()
at all.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/kexec: Fix bug with call depth tracking
The call to cc_platform_has() triggers a fault and system crash if call depth
tracking is active because the GS segment has been reset by load_segments() and
GS_BASE is now 0 but call depth tracking uses per-CPU variables to operate.
Call cc_platform_has() earlier in the function when GS is still valid.

[mic: Fix commit message]
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gve: Clear napi->skb before dev_kfree_skb_any()
gve_rx_free_skb incorrectly leaves napi->skb referencing an skb after it
is freed with dev_kfree_skb_any(). This can result in a subsequent call
to napi_get_frags returning a dangling pointer.
Fix this by clearing napi->skb before the skb is freed.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cachefiles: flush all requests after setting CACHEFILES_DEAD
In ondemand mode, when the daemon is processing an open request, if the
kernel flags the cache as CACHEFILES_DEAD, the cachefiles_daemon_write()
will always return -EIO, so the daemon can't pass the copen to the kernel.
Then the kernel process that is waiting for the copen triggers a hung_task.
Since the DEAD state is irreversible, it can only be exited by closing
/dev/cachefiles. Therefore, after calling cachefiles_io_error() to mark
the cache as CACHEFILES_DEAD, if in ondemand mode, flush all requests to
avoid the above hungtask. We may still be able to read some of the cached
data before closing the fd of /dev/cachefiles.
Note that this relies on the patch that adds reference counting to the req,
otherwise it may UAF.

mptcp: ensure snd_una is properly initialized on connect
This is strictly related to commit fb7a0d334894 ("mptcp: ensure snd_nxt

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xhci: Handle TD clearing for multiple streams case
When multiple streams are in use, multiple TDs might be in flight when
an endpoint is stopped. We need to issue a Set TR Dequeue Pointer for
each, to ensure everything is reset properly and the caches cleared.
Change the logic so that any N>1 TDs found active for different streams
are deferred until after the first one is processed, calling
xhci_invalidate_cancelled_tds() again from xhci_handle_cmd_set_deq() to
queue another command until we are done with all of them. Also change
the error/"should never happen" paths to ensure we at least clear any
affected TDs, even if we can't issue a command to clear the hardware
cache, and complain loudly with an xhci_warn() if this ever happens.
This problem case dates back to commit e9df17eb1408 ("USB: xhci: Correct
assumptions about number of rings per endpoint.") early on in the XHCI
driver's life, when stream support was first added.
It was then identified but not fixed nor made into a warning in commit
674f8438c121 ("xhci: split handling halted endpoints into two steps"),
which added a FIXME comment for the problem case (without materially
changing the behavior as far as I can tell, though the new logic made
the problem more obvious).
Then later, in commit 94f339147fc3 ("xhci: Fix failure to give back some
cached cancelled URBs."), it was acknowledged again.
[Mathias: commit 94f339147fc3 ("xhci: Fix failure to give back some cached
cancelled URBs.") was a targeted regression fix to the previously mentioned
patch. Users reported issues with usb stuck after unmounting/disconnecting
UAS devices. This rolled back the TD clearing of multiple streams to its
original state.]
Apparently the commit author was aware of the problem (yet still chose
to submit it): It was still mentioned as a FIXME, an xhci_dbg() was
added to log the problem condition, and the remaining issue was mentioned
in the commit description. The choice of making the log type xhci_dbg()
for what is, at this point, a completely unhandled and known broken
condition is puzzling and unfortunate, as it guarantees that no actual
users would see the log in production, thereby making it nigh
undebuggable (indeed, even if you turn on DEBUG, the message doesn't
really hint at there being a problem at all).
It took me *months* of random xHC crashes to finally find a reliable
repro and be able to do a deep dive debug session, which could all have
been avoided had this unhandled, broken condition been actually reported
with a warning, as it should have been as a bug intentionally left in
unfixed (never mind that it shouldn't have been left in at all).
> Another fix to solve clearing the caches of all stream rings with
> cancelled TDs is needed, but not as urgent.
3 years after that statement and 14 years after the original bug was
introduced, I think it's finally time to fix it. And maybe next time
let's not leave bugs unfixed (that are actually worse than the original
bug), and let's actually get people to review kernel commits please.
Fixes xHC crashes and IOMMU faults with UAS devices when handling
errors/faults. Easiest repro is to use `hdparm` to mark an early sector
(e.g. 1024) on a disk as bad, then `cat /dev/sdX > /dev/null` in a loop.
At least in the case of JMicron controllers, the read errors end up
having to cancel two TDs (for two queued requests to different streams)
and the one that didn't get cleared properly ends up faulting the xHC
entirely when it tries to access DMA pages that have since been unmapped,
referred to by the stale TDs. This normally happens quickly (after two
or three loops). After this fix, I left the `cat` in a loop running
overnight and experienced no xHC failures, with all read errors
recovered properly. Repro'd and tested on an Apple M1 Mac Mini
(dwc3 host).
On systems without an IOMMU, this bug would instead silently corrupt
freed memory, making this a

drm/i915/dpt: Make DPT object unshrinkable
In some scenarios, the DPT object gets shrunk but

bnxt_en: Adjust logging of firmware messages in case of released token in __hwrm_send()
In case of token is released due to token->state == BNXT_HWRM_DEFERRED,
released token (set to NULL) is used in log messages. This issue is
expected to be prevented by HWRM_ERR_CODE_PF_UNAVAILABLE error code. But
this error code is returned by recent firmware. So some firmware may not
return it. This may lead to NULL pointer dereference.

memblock: make memblock_set_node() also warn about use of MAX_NUMNODES
On an (old) x86 system with SRAT just covering space above 4Gb:
ACPI: SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x100000000-0xfffffffff] hotplug
the commit referenced below leads to this NUMA configuration no longer
being refused by a CONFIG_NUMA=y kernel (previously
NUMA: nodes only cover 6144MB of your 8185MB e820 RAM. Not used.
No NUMA configuration found
Faking a node at [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000027fffffff]
was seen in the log directly after the message quoted above), because of
memblock_validate_numa_coverage() checking for NUMA_NO_NODE (only). This
in turn led to memblock_alloc_range_nid()'s warning about MAX_NUMNODES
triggering, followed by a NULL deref in memmap_init() when trying to
access node 64's (NODE_SHIFT=6) node data.
To compensate said change, make memblock_set_node() warn on and adjust
a passed in value of MAX_NUMNODES, just like various other functions
already do.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/exynos: hdmi: report safe 640x480 mode as a fallback when no EDID found
When reading EDID fails and driver reports no modes available, the DRM
core adds an artificial 1024x786 mode to the connector. Unfortunately
some variants of the Exynos HDMI (like the one in Exynos4 SoCs) are not
able to drive such mode, so report a safe 640x480 mode instead of nothing
in case of the EDID reading failure.
This fixes the following issue observed on Trats2 board since commit

riscv: rewrite __kernel_map_pages() to fix sleeping in invalid context
__kernel_map_pages() is a debug function which clears the valid bit in page
table entry for deallocated pages to detect illegal memory accesses to
freed pages.
This function set/clear the valid bit using __set_memory(). __set_memory()
acquires init_mm's semaphore, and this operation may sleep. This is
problematic, because __kernel_map_pages() can be called in atomic context,
and thus is illegal to sleep. An example warning that this causes:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cachefiles: defer exposing anon_fd until after copy_to_user() succeeds
After installing the anonymous fd, we can now see it in userland and close
it. However, at this point we may not have gotten the reference count of
the cache, but we will put it during colse fd, so this may cause a cache
UAF.
So grab the cache reference count before fd_install(). In addition, by
kernel convention, fd is taken over by the user land after fd_install(),
and the kernel should not call close_fd() after that, i.e., it should call
fd_install() after everything is ready, thus fd_install() is called after
copy_to_user() succeeds.
