| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: nx - fix bounce buffer leaks in nx842_crypto_{alloc,free}_ctx
The bounce buffers are allocated with __get_free_pages() using
BOUNCE_BUFFER_ORDER (order 2 = 4 pages), but both the allocation error
path and nx842_crypto_free_ctx() release the buffers with free_page().
Use free_pages() with the matching order instead. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ceph: fix num_ops off-by-one when crypto allocation fails
move_dirty_folio_in_page_array() may fail if the file is encrypted, the
dirty folio is not the first in the batch, and it fails to allocate a
bounce buffer to hold the ciphertext. When that happens,
ceph_process_folio_batch() simply redirties the folio and flushes the
current batch -- it can retry that folio in a future batch.
However, if this failed folio is not contiguous with the last folio that
did make it into the batch, then ceph_process_folio_batch() has already
incremented `ceph_wbc->num_ops`; because it doesn't follow through and
add the discontiguous folio to the array, ceph_submit_write() -- which
expects that `ceph_wbc->num_ops` accurately reflects the number of
contiguous ranges (and therefore the required number of "write extent"
ops) in the writeback -- will panic the kernel:
BUG_ON(ceph_wbc->op_idx + 1 != req->r_num_ops);
This issue can be reproduced on affected kernels by writing to
fscrypt-enabled CephFS file(s) with a 4KiB-written/4KiB-skipped/repeat
pattern (total filesize should not matter) and gradually increasing the
system's memory pressure until a bounce buffer allocation fails.
Fix this crash by decrementing `ceph_wbc->num_ops` back to the correct
value when move_dirty_folio_in_page_array() fails, but the folio already
started counting a new (i.e. still-empty) extent.
The defect corrected by this patch has existed since 2022 (see first
`Fixes:`), but another bug blocked multi-folio encrypted writeback until
recently (see second `Fixes:`). The second commit made it into 6.18.16,
6.19.6, and 7.0-rc1, unmasking the panic in those versions. This patch
therefore fixes a regression (panic) introduced by cac190c7674f. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/shstk: Prevent deadlock during shstk sigreturn
During sigreturn the shadow stack signal frame is popped. The kernel does
this by reading the shadow stack using normal read accesses. When it can't
assume the memory is shadow stack, it takes extra steps to makes sure it is
reading actual shadow stack memory and not other normal readable memory. It
does this by holding the mmap read lock while doing the access and checking
the flags of the VMA.
Unfortunately that is not safe. If the read of the shadow stack sigframe
hits a page fault, the fault handler will try to recursively grab another
mmap read lock. This normally works ok, but if a writer on another CPU is
also waiting, the second read lock could fail and cause a deadlock.
Fix this by not holding mmap lock during the read access to userspace.
Instead use mmap_lock_speculate_...() to watch for changes between dropping
mmap lock and the userspace access. Retry if anything grabbed an mmap write
lock in between and could have changed the VMA.
These mmap_lock_speculate_...() helpers use mm::mm_lock_seq, which is only
available when PER_VMA_LOCK is configured. So make X86_USER_SHADOW_STACK
depend on it. On x86, PER_VMA_LOCK is a default configuration for SMP
kernels. So drop support for the other configs under the assumption that
the !SMP shadow stack user base does not exist.
Currently there is a check that skips the lookup work when the SSP can be
assumed to be on a shadow stack. While reorganizing the function, remove
the optimization to make the tricky code flows more common, such that
issues like this cannot escape detection for so long. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: qat - fix IRQ cleanup on 6xxx probe failure
When adf_dev_up() partially completes and then fails, the IRQ
handlers registered during adf_isr_resource_alloc() are not detached
before the MSI-X vectors are released.
Since the device is enabled with pcim_enable_device(), calling
pci_alloc_irq_vectors() internally registers pcim_msi_release() as a
devres action. On probe failure, devres runs pcim_msi_release() which
calls pci_free_irq_vectors(), tearing down the MSI-X vectors while IRQ
handlers (for example 'qat0-bundle0') are still attached. This causes
remove_proc_entry() warnings:
[ 22.163964] remove_proc_entry: removing non-empty directory 'irq/143', leaking at least 'qat0-bundle0'
Moving the devm_add_action_or_reset() before adf_dev_up() does not solve
the problem since devres runs in LIFO order and pcim_msi_release(),
registered later inside adf_dev_up(), would still fire before
adf_device_down().
Fix by calling adf_dev_down() explicitly when adf_dev_up() fails, to
properly free IRQ handlers before devres releases the MSI-X vectors. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: nSVM: Always use NextRIP as vmcb02's NextRIP after first L2 VMRUN
For guests with NRIPS disabled, L1 does not provide NextRIP when running
an L2 with an injected soft interrupt, instead it advances the current RIP
before running it. KVM uses the current RIP as the NextRIP in vmcb02 to
emulate a CPU without NRIPS.
However, after L2 runs the first time, NextRIP will be updated by the CPU
and/or KVM, and the current RIP is no longer the correct value to use in
vmcb02. Hence, after save/restore, use the current RIP if and only if a
nested run is pending, otherwise use NextRIP. Give soft_int_next_rip the
same treatment, as it's the same logic, just for a narrower use case.
[sean: give soft_int_next_rip the same treatment] |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md/raid5: fix soft lockup in retry_aligned_read()
When retry_aligned_read() encounters an overlapped stripe, it releases
the stripe via raid5_release_stripe() which puts it on the lockless
released_stripes llist. In the next raid5d loop iteration,
release_stripe_list() drains the stripe onto handle_list (since
STRIPE_HANDLE is set by the original IO), but retry_aligned_read()
runs before handle_active_stripes() and removes the stripe from
handle_list via find_get_stripe() -> list_del_init(). This prevents
handle_stripe() from ever processing the stripe to resolve the
overlap, causing an infinite loop and soft lockup.
Fix this by using __release_stripe() with temp_inactive_list instead
of raid5_release_stripe() in the failure path, so the stripe does not
go through the released_stripes llist. This allows raid5d to break out
of its loop, and the overlap will be resolved when the stripe is
eventually processed by handle_stripe(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md/raid10: fix deadlock with check operation and nowait requests
When an array check is running it will raise the barrier at which point
normal requests will become blocked and increment the nr_pending value to
signal there is work pending inside of wait_barrier(). NOWAIT requests
do not block and so will return immediately with an error, and additionally
do not increment nr_pending in wait_barrier(). Upstream change commit
43806c3d5b9b ("raid10: cleanup memleak at raid10_make_request") added a
call to raid_end_bio_io() to fix a memory leak when NOWAIT requests hit
this condition. raid_end_bio_io() eventually calls allow_barrier() and
it will unconditionally do an atomic_dec_and_test(&conf->nr_pending) even
though the corresponding increment on nr_pending didn't happen in the
NOWAIT case.
This can be easily seen by starting a check operation while an application
is doing nowait IO on the same array. This results in a deadlocked state
due to nr_pending value underflowing and so the md resync thread gets stuck
waiting for nr_pending to == 0.
Output of r10conf state of the array when we hit this condition:
crash> struct r10conf
barrier = 1,
nr_pending = {
counter = -41
},
nr_waiting = 15,
nr_queued = 0,

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: ctxfi: Add fallback to default RSR for S/PDIF
spdif_passthru_playback_get_resources() uses atc->pll_rate as the RSR
for the MSR calculation loop. However, pll_rate is only updated in
atc_pll_init() and not in hw_pll_init(), so it remains 0 after the
card init.
When spdif_passthru_playback_setup() skips atc_pll_init() for
32000 Hz, (rsr * desc.msr) always becomes 0, causing the loop to spin
indefinitely.
Add fallback to use atc->rsr when atc->pll_rate is 0. This reflects
the hardware state, since hw_card_init() already configures the PLL
to the default RSR. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: qrtr: ns: Fix use-after-free in driver remove()
In the remove callback, if a packet arrives after destroy_workqueue() is
called, but before sock_release(), the qrtr_ns_data_ready() callback will
try to queue the work, causing use-after-free issue.
Fix this issue by saving the default 'sk_data_ready' callback during
qrtr_ns_init() and use it to replace the qrtr_ns_data_ready() callback at
the start of remove(). This ensures that even if a packet arrives after
destroy_workqueue(), the work struct will not be dereferenced.
Note that it is also required to ensure that the RX threads are completed
before destroying the workqueue, because the threads could be using the
qrtr_ns_data_ready() callback. |

ext4: fix missing brelse() in ext4_xattr_inode_dec_ref_all()
The commit c8e008b60492 ("ext4: ignore xattrs past end")
introduced a refcount leak in when block_csum is false.
ext4_xattr_inode_dec_ref_all() calls ext4_get_inode_loc() to
get iloc.bh, but never releases it with brelse(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md/md-llbitmap: skip reading rdevs that are not in_sync
When reading bitmap pages from member disks, the code iterates through
all rdevs and attempts to read from the first available one. However,
it only checks for raid_disk assignment and Faulty flag, missing the
In_sync flag check.
This can cause bitmap data to be read from spare disks that are still
being rebuilt and don't have valid bitmap information yet. Reading
stale or uninitialized bitmap data from such disks can lead to
incorrect dirty bit tracking, potentially causing data corruption
during recovery or normal operation.
Add the In_sync flag check to ensure bitmap pages are only read from
fully synchronized member disks that have valid bitmap data. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
inotify: fix watch count leak when fsnotify_add_inode_mark_locked() fails
When fsnotify_add_inode_mark_locked() fails in inotify_new_watch(),
the error path calls inotify_remove_from_idr() but does not call
dec_inotify_watches() to undo the preceding inc_inotify_watches().
This leaks a watch count, and repeated failures can exhaust the
max_user_watches limit with -ENOSPC even when no watches are active.
Prior to commit 1cce1eea0aff ("inotify: Convert to using per-namespace
limits"), the watch count was incremented after fsnotify_add_mark_locked()
succeeded, so this path was not affected. The conversion moved
inc_inotify_watches() before the mark insertion without adding the
corresponding rollback.
Add the missing dec_inotify_watches() call in the error path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: qrtr: ns: Free the node during ctrl_cmd_bye()
A node sends the BYE packet when it is about to go down. So the nameserver
should advertise the removal of the node to all remote and local observers
and free the node finally. But currently, the nameserver doesn't free the
node memory even after processing the BYE packet. This causes the node
memory to leak.
Hence, remove the node from Xarray list and free the node memory during
both success and failure case of ctrl_cmd_bye(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: authencesn - reject short ahash digests during instance creation
authencesn requires either a zero authsize or an authsize of at least
4 bytes because the ESN encrypt/decrypt paths always move 4 bytes of
high-order sequence number data at the end of the authenticated data.
While crypto_authenc_esn_setauthsize() already rejects explicit
non-zero authsizes in the range 1..3, crypto_authenc_esn_create()
still copied auth->digestsize into inst->alg.maxauthsize without
validating it. The AEAD core then initialized the tfm's default
authsize from that value.
As a result, selecting an ahash with digest size 1..3, such as
cbcmac(cipher_null), exposed authencesn instances whose default
authsize was invalid even though setauthsize() would have rejected the
same value. AF_ALG could then trigger the ESN tail handling with a
too-short tag and hit an out-of-bounds access.
Reject authencesn instances whose ahash digest size is in the invalid
non-zero range 1..3 so that no tfm can inherit an unsupported default
authsize. |

KVM: nSVM: Triple fault if restore host CR3 fails on nested #VMEXIT
If loading L1's CR3 fails on a nested #VMEXIT, nested_svm_vmexit()
returns an error code that is ignored by most callers, and continues to
run L1 with corrupted state. A sane recovery is not possible in this
case, and HW behavior is to cause a shutdown. Inject a triple fault
instead, and do not return early from nested_svm_vmexit(). Continue
cleaning up the vCPU state (e.g. clear pending exceptions), to handle
the failure as gracefully as possible.
From the APM:
Upon #VMEXIT, the processor performs the following actions in order to
return to the host execution context:
...
if (illegal host state loaded, or exception while loading host state)
shutdown
else
execute first host instruction following the VMRUN
Remove the return value of nested_svm_vmexit(), which is mostly
unchecked anyway. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: algif_aead - snapshot IV for async AEAD requests
AF_ALG AEAD AIO requests currently use the socket-wide IV buffer during
request processing. For async requests, later socket activity can
update that shared state before the original request has fully
completed, which can lead to inconsistent IV handling.
Snapshot the IV into per-request storage when preparing the AEAD
request, so in-flight operations no longer depend on mutable socket
state. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: qrtr: ns: Limit the maximum number of lookups
Current code does no bound checking on the number of lookups a client can
perform. Though the code restricts the lookups to local clients, there is
still a possibility of a malicious local client sending a flood of
NEW_LOOKUP messages over the same socket.
Fix this issue by limiting the maximum number of lookups to 64 globally.
Since the nameserver allows only atmost one local observer, this global
lookup count will ensure that the lookups stay within the limit.
Note that, limit of 64 is chosen based on the current platform
requirements. If requirement changes in the future, this limit can be
increased. |

dm mirror: fix integer overflow in create_dirty_log()
The argument count calculation in create_dirty_log() performs
`*args_used = 2 + param_count` before validating against argc. When a
user provides a param_count close to UINT_MAX via the device mapper
table string, this unsigned addition wraps around to a small value,
causing the subsequent `argc < *args_used` check to be bypassed.
The overflowed param_count is then passed as argc to dm_dirty_log_create(),
where it can cause out-of-bounds reads on the argv array.
Fix by comparing param_count against argc - 2 before performing the
addition, following the same pattern used by parse_features() in the
same file. Since argc >= 2 is already guaranteed, the subtraction is
safe. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
thermal: core: Fix thermal zone governor cleanup issues
If thermal_zone_device_register_with_trips() fails after adding
a thermal governor to the thermal zone being registered, the
governor is not removed from it as appropriate which may lead to
a memory leak.
In turn, thermal_zone_device_unregister() calls thermal_set_governor()
without acquiring the thermal zone lock beforehand which may race with
a governor update via sysfs and may lead to a use-after-free in that
case.
Address these issues by adding two thermal_set_governor() calls, one to
thermal_release() to remove the governor from the given thermal zone,
and one to the thermal zone registration error path to cover failures
preceding the thermal zone device registration. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: stop parsing UAC2 rates at MAX_NR_RATES
parse_uac2_sample_rate_range() caps the number of enumerated
rates at MAX_NR_RATES, but it only breaks out of the current
rate loop. A malformed UAC2 RANGE response with additional
triplets continues parsing the remaining triplets and repeatedly
prints "invalid uac2 rates" while probe still holds
register_mutex.
Stop the whole parse once the cap is reached and return the
number of rates collected so far. |
