In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
svcrdma: use rc_pageoff for memcpy byte offset
svc_rdma_copy_inline_range added rc_curpage (page index) to the page
base instead of the byte offset rc_pageoff. Use rc_pageoff so copies
land within the current page.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: Disallow toggling KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD on an existing memslot
Reject attempts to disable KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD on a memslot that was
initially created with a guest_memfd binding, as KVM doesn't support
toggling KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD on existing memslots. KVM prevents enabling
KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD, but doesn't prevent clearing the flag.
Failure to reject the new memslot results in a use-after-free due to KVM
not unbinding from the guest_memfd instance. Unbinding on a FLAGS_ONLY
change is easy enough, and can/will be done as a hardening measure (in
anticipation of KVM supporting dirty logging on guest_memfd at some point),
but fixing the use-after-free would only address the immediate symptom.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: vfs: fix race on m_flags in vfs_cache
ksmbd maintains delete-on-close and pending-delete state in
ksmbd_inode->m_flags. In vfs_cache.c this field is accessed under
inconsistent locking: some paths read and modify m_flags under
ci->m_lock while others do so without taking the lock at all.
Examples:
- ksmbd_query_inode_status() and __ksmbd_inode_close() use
ci->m_lock when checking or updating m_flags.
- ksmbd_inode_pending_delete(), ksmbd_set_inode_pending_delete(),
ksmbd_clear_inode_pending_delete() and ksmbd_fd_set_delete_on_close()
used to read and modify m_flags without ci->m_lock.
This creates a potential data race on m_flags when multiple threads
open, close and delete the same file concurrently. In the worst case
delete-on-close and pending-delete bits can be lost or observed in an
inconsistent state, leading to confusing delete semantics (files that
stay on disk after delete-on-close, or files that disappear while still
in use).
Fix it by:
- Making ksmbd_query_inode_status() look at m_flags under ci->m_lock
after dropping inode_hash_lock.
- Adding ci->m_lock protection to all helpers that read or modify
m_flags (ksmbd_inode_pending_delete(), ksmbd_set_inode_pending_delete(),
ksmbd_clear_inode_pending_delete(), ksmbd_fd_set_delete_on_close()).
- Keeping the existing ci->m_lock protection in __ksmbd_inode_close(),
and moving the actual unlink/xattr removal outside the lock.
This unifies the locking around m_flags and removes the data race while
preserving the existing delete-on-close behaviour.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: vidtv: initialize local pointers upon transfer of memory ownership
vidtv_channel_si_init() creates a temporary list (program, service, event)
and ownership of the memory itself is transferred to the PAT/SDT/EIT
tables through vidtv_psi_pat_program_assign(),
vidtv_psi_sdt_service_assign(), vidtv_psi_eit_event_assign().
The problem here is that the local pointer where the memory ownership
transfer was completed is not initialized to NULL. This causes the
vidtv_psi_pmt_create_sec_for_each_pat_entry() function to fail, and
in the flow that jumps to free_eit, the memory that was freed by
vidtv_psi_*_table_destroy() can be accessed again by
vidtv_psi_*_event_destroy() due to the uninitialized local pointer, so it
is freed once again.
Therefore, to prevent use-after-free and double-free vulnerability,
local pointers must be initialized to NULL when transferring memory
ownership.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: fix race between wbt_enable_default and IO submission
When wbt_enable_default() is moved out of queue freezing in elevator_change(),
it can cause the wbt inflight counter to become negative (-1), leading to hung
tasks in the writeback path. Tasks get stuck in wbt_wait() because the counter
is in an inconsistent state.
The issue occurs because wbt_enable_default() could race with IO submission,
allowing the counter to be decremented before proper initialization. This manifests
as:
rq_wait[0]:
inflight: -1
has_waiters: True
rwb_enabled() checks the state, which can be updated exactly between wbt_wait()
(rq_qos_throttle()) and wbt_track()(rq_qos_track()), then the inflight counter
will become negative.
And results in hung task warnings like:
task:kworker/u24:39 state:D stack:0 pid:14767
Call Trace:
rq_qos_wait+0xb4/0x150
wbt_wait+0xa9/0x100
__rq_qos_throttle+0x24/0x40
blk_mq_submit_bio+0x672/0x7b0
...
Fix this by:
1. Splitting wbt_enable_default() into:
- __wbt_enable_default(): Returns true if wbt_init() should be called
- wbt_enable_default(): Wrapper for existing callers (no init)
- wbt_init_enable_default(): New function that checks and inits WBT
2. Using wbt_init_enable_default() in blk_register_queue() to ensure
proper initialization during queue registration
3. Move wbt_init() out of wbt_enable_default() which is only for enabling
disabled wbt from bfq and iocost, and wbt_init() isn't needed. Then the
original lock warning can be avoided.
4. Removing the ELEVATOR_FLAG_ENABLE_WBT_ON_EXIT flag and its handling
code since it's no longer needed
This ensures WBT is properly initialized before any IO can be submitted,
preventing the counter from going negative.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix buffer validation by including null terminator size in EA length
The smb2_set_ea function, which handles Extended Attributes (EA),
was performing buffer validation checks that incorrectly omitted the size
of the null terminating character (+1 byte) for EA Name.
This patch fixes the issue by explicitly adding '+ 1' to EaNameLength where
the null terminator is expected to be present in the buffer, ensuring
the validation accurately reflects the total required buffer size.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fuse: fix io-uring list corruption for terminated non-committed requests
When a request is terminated before it has been committed, the request
is not removed from the queue's list. This leaves a dangling list entry
that leads to list corruption and use-after-free issues.
Remove the request from the queue's list for terminated non-committed
requests.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
platform/chrome: cros_ec_ishtp: Fix UAF after unbinding driver
After unbinding the driver, another kthread `cros_ec_console_log_work`
is still accessing the device, resulting an UAF and crash.
The driver doesn't unregister the EC device in .remove() which should
shutdown sub-devices synchronously. Fix it.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: NFSv4 file creation neglects setting ACL
An NFSv4 client that sets an ACL with a named principal during file
creation retrieves the ACL afterwards, and finds that it is only a
default ACL (based on the mode bits) and not the ACL that was
requested during file creation. This violates RFC 8881 section
6.4.1.3: "the ACL attribute is set as given".
The issue occurs in nfsd_create_setattr(), which calls
nfsd_attrs_valid() to determine whether to call nfsd_setattr().
However, nfsd_attrs_valid() checks only for iattr changes and
security labels, but not POSIX ACLs. When only an ACL is present,
the function returns false, nfsd_setattr() is skipped, and the
POSIX ACL is never applied to the inode.
Subsequently, when the client retrieves the ACL, the server finds
no POSIX ACL on the inode and returns one generated from the file's
mode bits rather than returning the originally-specified ACL.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe: Limit num_syncs to prevent oversized allocations
The exec and vm_bind ioctl allow userspace to specify an arbitrary
num_syncs value. Without bounds checking, a very large num_syncs
can force an excessively large allocation, leading to kernel warnings
from the page allocator as below.
Introduce DRM_XE_MAX_SYNCS (set to 1024) and reject any request
exceeding this limit.

mlxsw: spectrum_router: Fix neighbour use-after-free
We sometimes observe use-after-free when dereferencing a neighbour [1].
The problem seems to be that the driver stores a pointer to the
neighbour, but without holding a reference on it. A reference is only
taken when the neighbour is used by a nexthop.
Fix by simplifying the reference counting scheme. Always take a
reference when storing a neighbour pointer in a neighbour entry. Avoid
taking a referencing when the neighbour is used by a nexthop as the
neighbour entry associated with the nexthop already holds a reference.
Tested by running the test that uncovered the problem over 300 times.
Without this patch the problem was reproduced after a handful of
iterations.

mlxsw: spectrum_mr: Fix use-after-free when updating multicast route stats
Cited commit added a dedicated mutex (instead of RTNL) to protect the
multicast route list, so that it will not change while the driver
periodically traverses it in order to update the kernel about multicast
route stats that were queried from the device.
One instance of list entry deletion (during route replace) was missed
and it can result in a use-after-free [1].
Fix by acquiring the mutex before deleting the entry from the list and
releasing it afterwards.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
caif: fix integer underflow in cffrml_receive()
The cffrml_receive() function extracts a length field from the packet
header and, when FCS is disabled, subtracts 2 from this length without
validating that len >= 2.
If an attacker sends a malicious packet with a length field of 0 or 1
to an interface with FCS disabled, the subtraction causes an integer
underflow.
This can lead to memory exhaustion and kernel instability, potential
information disclosure if padding contains uninitialized kernel memory.
Fix this by validating that len >= 2 before performing the subtraction.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
char: applicom: fix NULL pointer dereference in ac_ioctl
Discovered by Atuin - Automated Vulnerability Discovery Engine.
In ac_ioctl, the validation of IndexCard and the check for a valid
RamIO pointer are skipped when cmd is 6. However, the function
unconditionally executes readb(apbs[IndexCard].RamIO + VERS) at the
end.
If cmd is 6, IndexCard may reference a board that does not exist
(where RamIO is NULL), leading to a NULL pointer dereference.
Fix this by skipping the readb access when cmd is 6, as this
command is a global information query and does not target a specific
board context.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ethtool: Avoid overflowing userspace buffer on stats query
The ethtool -S command operates across three ioctl calls:
ETHTOOL_GSSET_INFO for the size, ETHTOOL_GSTRINGS for the names, and
ETHTOOL_GSTATS for the values.
If the number of stats changes between these calls (e.g., due to device
reconfiguration), userspace's buffer allocation will be incorrect,
potentially leading to buffer overflow.
Drivers are generally expected to maintain stable stat counts, but some
drivers (e.g., mlx5, bnx2x, bna, ksz884x) use dynamic counters, making
this scenario possible.
Some drivers try to handle this internally:
- bnad_get_ethtool_stats() returns early in case stats.n_stats is not
equal to the driver's stats count.
- micrel/ksz884x also makes sure not to write anything beyond
stats.n_stats and overflow the buffer.
However, both use stats.n_stats which is already assigned with the value
returned from get_sset_count(), hence won't solve the issue described
here.
Change ethtool_get_strings(), ethtool_get_stats(),
ethtool_get_phy_stats() to not return anything in case of a mismatch
between userspace's size and get_sset_size(), to prevent buffer
overflow.
The returned n_stats value will be equal to zero, to reflect that
nothing has been returned.
This could result in one of two cases when using upstream ethtool,
depending on when the size change is detected:
1. When detected in ethtool_get_strings():
# ethtool -S eth2
no stats available
2. When detected in get stats, all stats will be reported as zero.
Both cases are presumably transient, and a subsequent ethtool call
should succeed.
Other than the overflow avoidance, these two cases are very evident (no
output/cleared stats), which is arguably better than presenting
incorrect/shifted stats.
I also considered returning an error instead of a "silent" response, but
that seems more destructive towards userspace apps.
Notes:
- This patch does not claim to fix the inherent race, it only makes sure
that we do not overflow the userspace buffer, and makes for a more
predictable behavior.
- RTNL lock is held during each ioctl, the race window exists between
the separate ioctl calls when the lock is released.
- Userspace ethtool always fills stats.n_stats, but it is likely that
these stats ioctls are implemented in other userspace applications
which might not fill it. The added code checks that it's not zero,
to prevent any regressions.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iomap: adjust read range correctly for non-block-aligned positions
iomap_adjust_read_range() assumes that the position and length passed in
are block-aligned. This is not always the case however, as shown in the
syzbot generated case for erofs. This causes too many bytes to be
skipped for uptodate blocks, which results in returning the incorrect
position and length to read in. If all the blocks are uptodate, this
underflows length and returns a position beyond the folio.
Fix the calculation to also take into account the block offset when
calculating how many bytes can be skipped for uptodate blocks.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: fix a job->pasid access race in gpu recovery
Avoid a possible UAF in GPU recovery due to a race between
the sched timeout callback and the tdr work queue.
The gpu recovery function calls drm_sched_stop() and
later drm_sched_start(). drm_sched_start() restarts
the tdr queue which will eventually free the job. If
the tdr queue frees the job before time out callback
completes, the job will be freed and we'll get a UAF
when accessing the pasid. Cache it early to avoid the
UAF.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tpm2-sessions: Fix out of range indexing in name_size
'name_size' does not have any range checks, and it just directly indexes
with TPM_ALG_ID, which could lead into memory corruption at worst.
Address the issue by only processing known values and returning -EINVAL for
unrecognized values.
Make also 'tpm_buf_append_name' and 'tpm_buf_fill_hmac_session' fallible so
that errors are detected before causing any spurious TPM traffic.
End also the authorization session on failure in both of the functions, as
the session state would be then by definition corrupted.

net/mlx5: Fix double unregister of HCA_PORTS component
Clear hca_devcom_comp in device's private data after unregistering it in
LAG teardown. Otherwise a slightly lagging second pass through
mlx5_unload_one() might try to unregister it again and trip over

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fsnotify: do not generate ACCESS/MODIFY events on child for special files
inotify/fanotify do not allow users with no read access to a file to
subscribe to events (e.g. IN_ACCESS/IN_MODIFY), but they do allow the
same user to subscribe for watching events on children when the user
has access to the parent directory (e.g. /dev).
Users with no read access to a file but with read access to its parent
directory can still stat the file and see if it was accessed/modified
via atime/mtime change.
The same is not true for special files (e.g. /dev/null). Users will not
generally observe atime/mtime changes when other users read/write to
special files, only when someone sets atime/mtime via utimensat().
Align fsnotify events with this stat behavior and do not generate
ACCESS/MODIFY events to parent watchers on read/write of special files.
The events are still generated to parent watchers on utimensat(). This
closes some side-channels that could be possibly used for information
exfiltration [1].

net: openvswitch: fix middle attribute validation in push_nsh() action
The push_nsh() action structure looks like this:
OVS_ACTION_ATTR_PUSH_NSH(OVS_KEY_ATTR_NSH(OVS_NSH_KEY_ATTR_BASE,...))
The outermost OVS_ACTION_ATTR_PUSH_NSH attribute is OK'ed by the
nla_for_each_nested() inside __ovs_nla_copy_actions(). The innermost
OVS_NSH_KEY_ATTR_BASE/MD1/MD2 are OK'ed by the nla_for_each_nested()
inside nsh_key_put_from_nlattr(). But nothing checks if the attribute
in the middle is OK. We don't even check that this attribute is the
OVS_KEY_ATTR_NSH. We just do a double unwrap with a pair of nla_data()
calls - first time directly while calling validate_push_nsh() and the
second time as part of the nla_for_each_nested() macro, which isn't
safe, potentially causing invalid memory access if the size of this
attribute is incorrect. The failure may not be noticed during
validation due to larger netlink buffer, but cause trouble later during
action execution where the buffer is allocated exactly to the size:

Let's add some checks that the attribute is properly sized and it's
the only one attribute inside the action. Technically, there is no
real reason for OVS_KEY_ATTR_NSH to be there, as we know that we're
pushing an NSH header already, it just creates extra nesting, but
that's how uAPI works today. So, keeping as it is.

xfs: fix a UAF problem in xattr repair

setup.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-mixer: us16x08: validate meter packet indices
get_meter_levels_from_urb() parses the 64-byte meter packets sent by
the device and fills the per-channel arrays meter_level[],
comp_level[] and master_level[] in struct snd_us16x08_meter_store.
Currently the function derives the channel index directly from the
meter packet (MUB2(meter_urb, s) - 1) and uses it to index those
arrays without validating the range. If the packet contains a
negative or out-of-range channel number, the driver may write past
the end of these arrays.
Introduce a local channel variable and validate it before updating the
arrays. We reject negative indices, limit meter_level[] and
comp_level[] to SND_US16X08_MAX_CHANNELS, and guard master_level[]
updates with ARRAY_SIZE(master_level).

usb: phy: fsl-usb: Fix use-after-free in delayed work during device removal
The delayed work item otg_event is initialized in fsl_otg_conf() and
scheduled under two conditions:
1. When a host controller binds to the OTG controller.
2. When the USB ID pin state changes (cable insertion/removal).
A race condition occurs when the device is removed via fsl_otg_remove():
the fsl_otg instance may be freed while the delayed work is still pending
or executing. This leads to use-after-free when the work function
fsl_otg_event() accesses the already freed memory.
The problematic scenario:
(detach thread) | (delayed work)
fsl_otg_remove() |
kfree(fsl_otg_dev) //FREE| fsl_otg_event()
| og = container_of(...) //USE
| og-> //USE
Fix this by calling disable_delayed_work_sync() in fsl_otg_remove()
before deallocating the fsl_otg structure. This ensures the delayed work
is properly canceled and completes execution prior to memory deallocation.
This bug was identified through static analysis.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched/deadline: only set free_cpus for online runqueues
Commit 16b269436b72 ("sched/deadline: Modify cpudl::free_cpus
to reflect rd->online") introduced the cpudl_set/clear_freecpu
functions to allow the cpu_dl::free_cpus mask to be manipulated
by the deadline scheduler class rq_on/offline callbacks so the
mask would also reflect this state.
Commit 9659e1eeee28 ("sched/deadline: Remove cpu_active_mask
from cpudl_find()") removed the check of the cpu_active_mask to
save some processing on the premise that the cpudl::free_cpus
mask already reflected the runqueue online state.
Unfortunately, there are cases where it is possible for the
cpudl_clear function to set the free_cpus bit for a CPU when the
deadline runqueue is offline. When this occurs while a CPU is
connected to the default root domain the flag may retain the bad
state after the CPU has been unplugged. Later, a different CPU
that is transitioning through the default root domain may push a
deadline task to the powered down CPU when cpudl_find sees its
free_cpus bit is set. If this happens the task will not have the
opportunity to run.
One example is outlined here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250110233010.2339521-1-opendmb@gmail.com
Another occurs when the last deadline task is migrated from a
CPU that has an offlined runqueue. The dequeue_task member of
the deadline scheduler class will eventually call cpudl_clear
and set the free_cpus bit for the CPU.
This commit modifies the cpudl_clear function to be aware of the
online state of the deadline runqueue so that the free_cpus mask
can be updated appropriately.
It is no longer necessary to manage the mask outside of the
cpudl_set/clear functions so the cpudl_set/clear_freecpu
functions are removed. In addition, since the free_cpus mask is
now only updated under the cpudl lock the code was changed to
use the non-atomic __cpumask functions.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: don't log conflicting inode if it's a dir moved in the current transaction
We can't log a conflicting inode if it's a directory and it was moved
from one parent directory to another parent directory in the current
transaction, as this can result an attempt to have a directory with
two hard links during log replay, one for the old parent directory and
another for the new parent directory.
The following scenario triggers that issue:
1) We have directories "dir1" and "dir2" created in a past transaction.
Directory "dir1" has inode A as its parent directory;
2) We move "dir1" to some other directory;
3) We create a file with the name "dir1" in directory inode A;
4) We fsync the new file. This results in logging the inode of the new file
and the inode for the directory "dir1" that was previously moved in the
current transaction. So the log tree has the INODE_REF item for the
new location of "dir1";
5) We move the new file to some other directory. This results in updating
the log tree to included the new INODE_REF for the new location of the
file and removes the INODE_REF for the old location. This happens
during the rename when we call btrfs_log_new_name();
6) We fsync the file, and that persists the log tree changes done in the
previous step (btrfs_log_new_name() only updates the log tree in
memory);
7) We have a power failure;
8) Next time the fs is mounted, log replay happens and when processing
the inode for directory "dir1" we find a new INODE_REF and add that
link, but we don't remove the old link of the inode since we have
not logged the old parent directory of the directory inode "dir1".
As a result after log replay finishes when we trigger writeback of the
subvolume tree's extent buffers, the tree check will detect that we have
a directory a hard link count of 2 and we get a mount failure.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: ti_am335x_tsc - fix off-by-one error in wire_order validation
The current validation 'wire_order[i] > ARRAY_SIZE(config_pins)' allows
wire_order[i] to equal ARRAY_SIZE(config_pins), which causes out-of-bounds
access when used as index in 'config_pins[wire_order[i]]'.
Since config_pins has 4 elements (indices 0-3), the valid range for
wire_order should be 0-3. Fix the off-by-one error by using >= instead
of > in the validation check.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/handshake: duplicate handshake cancellations leak socket
When a handshake request is cancelled it is removed from the
handshake_net->hn_requests list, but it is still present in the
handshake_rhashtbl until it is destroyed.
If a second cancellation request arrives for the same handshake request,
then remove_pending() will return false... and assuming
HANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED isn't set in req->hr_flags, we'll continue
processing through the out_true label, where we put another reference on
the sock and a refcount underflow occurs.
This can happen for example if a handshake times out - particularly if
the SUNRPC client sends the AUTH_TLS probe to the server but doesn't
follow it up with the ClientHello due to a problem with tlshd. When the
timeout is hit on the server, the server will send a FIN, which triggers
a cancellation request via xs_reset_transport(). When the timeout is
hit on the client, another cancellation request happens via
xs_tls_handshake_sync().
Add a test_and_set_bit(HANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED) in the pending cancel
path so duplicate cancels can be detected.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hfsplus: fix missing hfs_bnode_get() in __hfs_bnode_create
When sync() and link() are called concurrently, both threads may
enter hfs_bnode_find() without finding the node in the hash table
and proceed to create it.
Thread A:
hfsplus_write_inode()
-> hfsplus_write_system_inode()
-> hfs_btree_write()
-> hfs_bnode_find(tree, 0)
-> __hfs_bnode_create(tree, 0)
Thread B:
hfsplus_create_cat()
-> hfs_brec_insert()
-> hfs_bnode_split()
-> hfs_bmap_alloc()
-> hfs_bnode_find(tree, 0)
-> __hfs_bnode_create(tree, 0)
In this case, thread A creates the bnode, sets refcnt=1, and hashes it.
Thread B also tries to create the same bnode, notices it has already
been inserted, drops its own instance, and uses the hashed one without
getting the node.
```
node2 = hfs_bnode_findhash(tree, cnid);
if (!node2) { <- Thread A
hash = hfs_bnode_hash(cnid);
node->next_hash = tree->node_hash[hash];
tree->node_hash[hash] = node;
tree->node_hash_cnt++;
} else { <- Thread B
spin_unlock(&tree->hash_lock);
kfree(node);
wait_event(node2->lock_wq,
!test_bit(HFS_BNODE_NEW, &node2->flags));
return node2;
}
```
However, hfs_bnode_find() requires each call to take a reference.
Here both threads end up setting refcnt=1. When they later put the node,
this triggers:
BUG_ON(!atomic_read(&node->refcnt))
In this scenario, Thread B in fact finds the node in the hash table
rather than creating a new one, and thus must take a reference.
Fix this by calling hfs_bnode_get() when reusing a bnode newly created by
another thread to ensure the refcount is updated correctly.
A similar bug was fixed in HFS long ago in commit
a9dc087fd3c4 ("fix missing hfs_bnode_get() in __hfs_bnode_create")
but the same issue remained in HFS+ until now.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: fsl-cpm: Check length parity before switching to 16 bit mode
Commit fc96ec826bce ("spi: fsl-cpm: Use 16 bit mode for large transfers
with even size") failed to make sure that the size is really even
before switching to 16 bit mode. Until recently the problem went
unnoticed because kernfs uses a pre-allocated bounce buffer of size
PAGE_SIZE for reading EEPROM.
But commit 8ad6249c51d0 ("eeprom: at25: convert to spi-mem API")
introduced an additional dynamically allocated bounce buffer whose size
is exactly the size of the transfer, leading to a buffer overrun in
the fsl-cpm driver when that size is odd.
Add the missing length parity verification and remain in 8 bit mode
when the length is not even.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: fix kernel BUG in ocfs2_find_victim_chain
syzbot reported a kernel BUG in ocfs2_find_victim_chain() because the
`cl_next_free_rec` field of the allocation chain list (next free slot in
the chain list) is 0, triggring the BUG_ON(!cl->cl_next_free_rec)
condition in ocfs2_find_victim_chain() and panicking the kernel.
To fix this, an if condition is introduced in ocfs2_claim_suballoc_bits(),
just before calling ocfs2_find_victim_chain(), the code block in it being
executed when either of the following conditions is true:
1. `cl_next_free_rec` is equal to 0, indicating that there are no free
chains in the allocation chain list
2. `cl_next_free_rec` is greater than `cl_count` (the total number of
chains in the allocation chain list)
Either of them being true is indicative of the fact that there are no
chains left for usage.
This is addressed using ocfs2_error(), which prints
the error log for debugging purposes, rather than panicking the kernel.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bnxt_en: Fix XDP_TX path
For XDP_TX action in bnxt_rx_xdp(), clearing of the event flags is not
correct. __bnxt_poll_work() -> bnxt_rx_pkt() -> bnxt_rx_xdp() may be
looping within NAPI and some event flags may be set in earlier
iterations. In particular, if BNXT_TX_EVENT is set earlier indicating
some XDP_TX packets are ready and pending, it will be cleared if it is
XDP_TX action again. Normally, we will set BNXT_TX_EVENT again when we
successfully call __bnxt_xmit_xdp(). But if the TX ring has no more
room, the flag will not be set. This will cause the TX producer to be
ahead but the driver will not hit the TX doorbell.
For multi-buf XDP_TX, there is no need to clear the event flags and set
BNXT_AGG_EVENT. The BNXT_AGG_EVENT flag should have been set earlier in
bnxt_rx_pkt().
The visible symptom of this is that the RX ring associated with the
TX XDP ring will eventually become empty and all packets will be dropped.
Because this condition will cause the driver to not refill the RX ring
seeing that the TX ring has forever pending XDP_TX packets.
The fix is to only clear BNXT_RX_EVENT when we have successfully
called __bnxt_xmit_xdp().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
inet: frags: flush pending skbs in fqdir_pre_exit()
We have been seeing occasional deadlocks on pernet_ops_rwsem since
September in NIPA. The stuck task was usually modprobe (often loading
a driver like ipvlan), trying to take the lock as a Writer.
lockdep does not track readers for rwsems so the read wasn't obvious
from the reports.
On closer inspection the Reader holding the lock was conntrack looping
forever in nf_conntrack_cleanup_net_list(). Based on past experience
with occasional NIPA crashes I looked thru the tests which run before
the crash and noticed that the crash follows ip_defrag.sh. An immediate
red flag. Scouring thru (de)fragmentation queues reveals skbs sitting
around, holding conntrack references.
The problem is that since conntrack depends on nf_defrag_ipv6,
nf_defrag_ipv6 will load first. Since nf_defrag_ipv6 loads first its
netns exit hooks run _after_ conntrack's netns exit hook.
Flush all fragment queue SKBs during fqdir_pre_exit() to release
conntrack references before conntrack cleanup runs. Also flush
the queues in timer expiry handlers when they discover fqdir->dead
is set, in case packet sneaks in while we're running the pre_exit
flush.
The commit under Fixes is not exactly the culprit, but I think
previously the timer firing would eventually unblock the spinning
conntrack.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hfsplus: Verify inode mode when loading from disk
syzbot is reporting that S_IFMT bits of inode->i_mode can become bogus when
the S_IFMT bits of the 16bits "mode" field loaded from disk are corrupted.
According to [1], the permissions field was treated as reserved in Mac OS
8 and 9. According to [2], the reserved field was explicitly initialized
with 0, and that field must remain 0 as long as reserved. Therefore, when
the "mode" field is not 0 (i.e. no longer reserved), the file must be
S_IFDIR if dir == 1, and the file must be one of S_IFREG/S_IFLNK/S_IFCHR/
S_IFBLK/S_IFIFO/S_IFSOCK if dir == 0.
An arbitrary file upload vulnerability in the /utils/uploadFile component of Hubert Imoveis e Administracao Ltda Hub v2.0 1.27.3 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via uploading a crafted PDF file.
A flaw was found in Eclipse Che che-machine-exec. This vulnerability allows unauthenticated remote arbitrary command execution and secret exfiltration (SSH keys, tokens, etc.) from other users' Developer Workspace containers, via an unauthenticated JSON-RPC / websocket API exposed on TCP port 3333.
fabricators Ltd Vanilla OS 2 Core image v1.1.0 was discovered to contain static keys for the SSH service, allowing attackers to possibly execute a man-in-the-middle attack during connections with other hosts.
