In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drivers: staging: rtl8723bs: Fix deadlock in rtw_surveydone_event_callback()
There is a deadlock in rtw_surveydone_event_callback(),
which is shown below:
(Thread 1) | (Thread 2)
| _set_timer()
rtw_surveydone_event_callback()| mod_timer()
spin_lock_bh() //(1) | (wait a time)
... | rtw_scan_timeout_handler()
del_timer_sync() | spin_lock_bh() //(2)
(wait timer to stop) | ...
We hold pmlmepriv->lock in position (1) of thread 1 and use
del_timer_sync() to wait timer to stop, but timer handler
also need pmlmepriv->lock in position (2) of thread 2.
As a result, rtw_surveydone_event_callback() will block forever.
This patch extracts del_timer_sync() from the protection of
spin_lock_bh(), which could let timer handler to obtain
the needed lock. What`s more, we change spin_lock_bh() in
rtw_scan_timeout_handler() to spin_lock_irq(). Otherwise,
spin_lock_bh() will also cause deadlock() in timer handler.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
extcon: Modify extcon device to be created after driver data is set
Currently, someone can invoke the sysfs such as state_show()

And it can be a cause of kernel Oops because of edev is Null at that time.
So modified the driver registration to after setting drviver data.

Fix this by checking whether the 'info->netdev' is a null pointer first.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: dwc3: host: Stop setting the ACPI companion
It is no longer needed. The sysdev pointer is now used when
assigning the ACPI companions to the xHCI ports and USB
devices.
Assigning the ACPI companion here resulted in the
fwnode->secondary pointer to be replaced also for the parent
dwc3 device since the primary fwnode (the ACPI companion)
was shared. That was unintentional and it created potential
side effects like resource leaks.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nbd: fix race between nbd_alloc_config() and module removal
When nbd module is being removing, nbd_alloc_config() may be
called concurrently by nbd_genl_connect(), although try_module_get()
will return false, but nbd_alloc_config() doesn't handle it.
The race may lead to the leak of nbd_config and its related
resources (e.g, recv_workq) and oops in nbd_read_stat() due
to the unload of nbd module as shown below:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000040

Fixing it by checking the return value of try_module_get()
in nbd_alloc_config(). As nbd_alloc_config() may return ERR_PTR(-ENODEV),
assign nbd->config only when nbd_alloc_config() succeeds to ensure
the value of nbd->config is binary (valid or NULL).
Also adding a debug message to check the reference counter
of nbd_config during module removal.

"qemu-ndb -d" will call ioctl 'NBD_DISCONNECT' first, however, following
message was found:
block nbd0: Send disconnect failed -32
Which indicate that something is wrong with the server. Then,
"qemu-nbd -d" will call ioctl 'NBD_CLEAR_SOCK', however ioctl can't clear
requests after commit 2516ab1543fd("nbd: only clear the queue on device
teardown"). And in the meantime, request can't complete through timeout
because nbd_xmit_timeout() will always return 'BLK_EH_RESET_TIMER', which
means such request will never be completed in this situation.
Now that the flag 'NBD_CMD_INFLIGHT' can make sure requests won't
complete multiple times, switch back to call nbd_clear_sock() in
nbd_clear_sock_ioctl(), so that inflight requests can be cleared.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ceph: fix possible deadlock when holding Fwb to get inline_data
1, mount with wsync.
2, create a file with O_RDWR, and the request was sent to mds.0:
ceph_atomic_open()-->
ceph_mdsc_do_request(openc)
finish_open(file, dentry, ceph_open)-->
ceph_open()-->
ceph_init_file()-->

ceph_uninline_data()-->
{
...
if (inline_version == 1 || /* initial version, no data */
inline_version == CEPH_INLINE_NONE)
goto out_unlock;
...
}
The inline_version will be 1, which is the initial version for the
new create file. And here the ci->i_inline_version will keep with 1,
it's buggy.
3, buffer write to the file immediately:
ceph_write_iter()-->
ceph_get_caps(file, need=Fw, want=Fb, ...);
generic_perform_write()-->
a_ops->write_begin()-->
ceph_write_begin()-->

if (ci->i_inline_version != CEPH_INLINE_NONE &&
ceph_netfs_issue_op_inline(subreq))
return;
...
}
ceph_put_cap_refs(ci, Fwb);
The ceph_netfs_issue_op_inline() will send a getattr(Fsr) request to
mds.1.
4, then the mds.1 will request the rd lock for CInode::filelock from
the auth mds.0, the mds.0 will do the CInode::filelock state transation
from excl --> sync, but it need to revoke the Fxwb caps back from the
clients.
While the kernel client has aleady held the Fwb caps and waiting for
the getattr(Fsr).
It's deadlock!

block: fix rq-qos breakage from skipping rq_qos_done_bio()
a647a524a467 ("block: don't call rq_qos_ops->done_bio if the bio isn't
tracked") made bio_endio() skip rq_qos_done_bio() if BIO_TRACKED is not set.
While this fixed a potential oops, it also broke blk-iocost by skipping the
done_bio callback for merged bios.
Before, whether a bio goes through rq_qos_throttle() or rq_qos_merge(),
rq_qos_done_bio() would be called on the bio on completion with BIO_TRACKED
distinguishing the former from the latter. rq_qos_done_bio() is not called
for bios which wenth through rq_qos_merge(). This royally confuses
blk-iocost as the merged bios never finish and are considered perpetually
in-flight.
One reliably reproducible failure mode is an intermediate cgroup geting
stuck active preventing its children from being activated due to the
leaf-only rule, leading to loss of control. The following is from
resctl-bench protection scenario which emulates isolating a web server like
workload from a memory bomb run on an iocost configuration which should
yield a reasonable level of protection.

BIO_TRACKED to BIO_QOS_THROTTLED. The flag checks are moved into
rq_qos_done_bio() so that it's next to the code paths that set the flags.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
exec: Force single empty string when argv is empty
Quoting[1] Ariadne Conill:
"In several other operating systems, it is a hard requirement that the
second argument to execve(2) be the name of a program, thus prohibiting
a scenario where argc < 1. POSIX 2017 also recommends this behaviour,
but it is not an explicit requirement[2]:
The argument arg0 should point to a filename string that is
associated with the process being started by one of the exec
functions.
...
Interestingly, Michael Kerrisk opened an issue about this in 2008[3],
but there was no consensus to support fixing this issue then.
Hopefully now that CVE-2021-4034 shows practical exploitative use[4]
of this bug in a shellcode, we can reconsider.
This issue is being tracked in the KSPP issue tracker[5]."
While the initial code searches[6][7] turned up what appeared to be
mostly corner case tests, trying to that just reject argv == NULL
(or an immediately terminated pointer list) quickly started tripping[8]
existing userspace programs.
The next best approach is forcing a single empty string into argv and
adjusting argc to match. The number of programs depending on argc == 0
seems a smaller set than those calling execve with a NULL argv.
Account for the additional stack space in bprm_stack_limits(). Inject an
empty string when argc == 0 (and set argc = 1). Warn about the case so
userspace has some notice about the change:
process './argc0' launched './argc0' with NULL argv: empty string added
Additionally WARN() and reject NULL argv usage for kernel threads.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: hisilicon/sec - fix the aead software fallback for engine
Due to the subreq pointer misuse the private context memory. The aead
soft crypto occasionally casues the OS panic as setting the 64K page.
Here is fix it.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: don't delete queue kobject before its children
kobjects aren't supposed to be deleted before their child kobjects are
deleted. Apparently this is usually benign; however, a WARN will be
triggered if one of the child kobjects has a named attribute group:
sysfs group 'modes' not found for kobject 'crypto'
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at fs/sysfs/group.c:278 sysfs_remove_group+0x72/0x80

Fix this by moving the kobject_del() and the corresponding
kobject_uevent() to the correct place.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: atmel: Add missing of_node_put() in at91sam9g20ek_audio_probe
This node pointer is returned by of_parse_phandle() with refcount
incremented in this function.
Calling of_node_put() to avoid the refcount leak.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: mxs: Fix error handling in mxs_sgtl5000_probe
This function only calls of_node_put() in the regular path.
And it will cause refcount leak in error paths.
For example, when codec_np is NULL, saif_np[0] and saif_np[1]
are not NULL, it will cause leaks.
of_node_put() will check if the node pointer is NULL, so we can
call it directly to release the refcount of regular pointers.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: atmel: Fix error handling in sam9x5_wm8731_driver_probe
The device_node pointer is returned by of_parse_phandle() with refcount
incremented. We should use of_node_put() on it when done.
This function only calls of_node_put() in the regular path.
And it will cause refcount leak in error path.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: mediatek: mt8195: Fix error handling in mt8195_mt6359_rt1019_rt5682_dev_probe
The device_node pointer is returned by of_parse_phandle() with refcount
incremented. We should use of_node_put() on it when done.
This function only calls of_node_put() in the regular path.
And it will cause refcount leak in error path.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: codecs: wcd934x: Add missing of_node_put() in wcd934x_codec_parse_data
The device_node pointer is returned by of_parse_phandle() with refcount
incremented. We should use of_node_put() on it when done.
This is similar to commit 64b92de9603f
("ASoC: wcd9335: fix a leaked reference by adding missing of_node_put")
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ath11k: add missing of_node_put() to avoid leak
The node pointer is returned by of_find_node_by_type()
or of_parse_phandle() with refcount incremented. Calling
of_node_put() to aovid the refcount leak.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ath9k_htc: fix uninit value bugs
Syzbot reported 2 KMSAN bugs in ath9k. All of them are caused by missing
field initialization.
In htc_connect_service() svc_meta_len and pad are not initialized. Based
on code it looks like in current skb there is no service data, so simply
initialize svc_meta_len to 0.
htc_issue_send() does not initialize htc_frame_hdr::control array. Based
on firmware code, it will initialize it by itself, so simply zero whole
array to make KMSAN happy

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Call dc_stream_release for remove link enc assignment
[Why]
A porting error resulted in the stream assignment for the link
being retained without being released - a memory leak.
[How]
Fix the porting error by adding back the dc_stream_release() intended
as part of the original patch.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Fix a NULL pointer dereference in amdgpu_dm_connector_add_common_modes()
In amdgpu_dm_connector_add_common_modes(), amdgpu_dm_create_common_mode()
is assigned to mode and is passed to drm_mode_probed_add() directly after
that. drm_mode_probed_add() passes &mode->head to list_add_tail(), and
there is a dereference of it in list_add_tail() without recoveries, which
could lead to NULL pointer dereference on failure of
amdgpu_dm_create_common_mode().
Fix this by adding a NULL check of mode.
This bug was found by a static analyzer.
Builds with 'make allyesconfig' show no new warnings,
and our static analyzer no longer warns about this code.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rtw88: fix memory overrun and memory leak during hw_scan
Previously we allocated less memory than actual required, overwrite
to the buffer causes the mm module to complaint and raise access
violation faults. Along with potential memory leaks when returned
early. Fix these by passing the correct size and proper deinit flow.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mt76: mt7915: fix possible memory leak in mt7915_mcu_add_sta
Free allocated skb in mt7915_mcu_add_sta routine in case of failures.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ptp: unregister virtual clocks when unregistering physical clock.
When unregistering a physical clock which has some virtual clocks,
unregister the virtual clocks with it.
This fixes the following oops, which can be triggered by unloading
a driver providing a PTP clock when it has enabled virtual clocks:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: asix: add proper error handling of usb read errors
Syzbot once again hit uninit value in asix driver. The problem still the
same -- asix_read_cmd() reads less bytes, than was requested by caller.
Since all read requests are performed via asix_read_cmd() let's catch
usb related error there and add __must_check notation to be sure all
callers actually check return value.
So, this patch adds sanity check inside asix_read_cmd(), that simply
checks if bytes read are not less, than was requested and adds missing
error handling of asix_read_cmd() all across the driver code.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mt76: mt7921s: fix a possible memory leak in mt7921_load_patch
Always release fw data at the end of mt7921_load_patch routine.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
power: supply: ab8500: Fix memory leak in ab8500_fg_sysfs_init
kobject_init_and_add() takes reference even when it fails.
According to the doc of kobject_init_and_add()：
If this function returns an error, kobject_put() must be called to
properly clean up the memory associated with the object.
Fix memory leak by calling kobject_put().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm/dp: populate connector of struct dp_panel
DP CTS test case 4.2.2.6 has valid edid with bad checksum on purpose
and expect DP source return correct checksum. During drm edid read,
correct edid checksum is calculated and stored at
connector::real_edid_checksum.
The problem is struct dp_panel::connector never be assigned, instead the
connector is stored in struct msm_dp::connector. When we run compliance
testing test case 4.2.2.6 dp_panel_handle_sink_request() won't have a valid
edid set in struct dp_panel::edid so we'll try to use the connectors
real_edid_checksum and hit a NULL pointer dereference error because the
connector pointer is never assigned.
Changes in V2:
-- populate panel connector at msm_dp_modeset_init() instead of at dp_panel_read_sink_caps()
Changes in V3:
-- remove unhelpful kernel crash trace commit text
-- remove renaming dp_display parameter to dp
Changes in V4:
-- add more details to commit text
Changes in v10:
-- group into one series
Changes in v11:
-- drop drm/msm/dp: dp_link_parse_sink_count() return immediately if aux read
