| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvme-apple: Destroy the admin queue on removal
The admin queue is allocated with blk_mq_alloc_queue() but never
destroyed. nvme_free_ctrl() only drops the last reference and
blk_mq_exit_queue() and blk_sync_queue() never run: the hctx is never
moved to q->unused_hctx_list and the timeout timer and work stay armed on
a queue that is about to be freed which will eventually oops inside
blk_mq_timeout_work().
This can only be triggered when the controller fails to come up and is
then immediately torn down again which is why no one ever ran into this
before.
Let's just copy what the pcie driver does: unquiesce and destroy the admin
queue before nvme_uninit_ctrl().
With this the following WARN followed by a panic no longer happens:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: validate orphan slot during inode read
Patch series "ocfs2: validate active orphan slots during inode read".
OCFS2 trusts active ordinary and append-DIO orphan slots read from dinodes.
A corrupted slot can therefore index osb_orphan_wipes or the slot-local
system-inode cache outside their allocations before the corruption is
reported.
Patch 1 validates the ordinary orphan slot used by inode wipe processing.
Patch 2 validates the append-DIO orphan slot used by DIO completion and
orphan recovery. Both checks reject corrupt metadata at the existing inode
validation boundary.
This patch (of 2):
[BUG]
A corrupted dinode with OCFS2_ORPHANED_FL can carry an
i_orphaned_slot outside the mounted filesystem slot range.
ocfs2_wipe_inode() uses it to index osb_orphan_wipes before looking
up the orphan directory, causing an out-of-bounds memory access.

...
[CAUSE]
ocfs2_del_inode_from_orphan() uses i_dio_orphaned_slot to index the
slot-local system inode cache. The dinode validator does not check
this active slot, so an out-of-range value produces an invalid cache
entry pointer that is dereferenced as an inode pointer.
[FIX]
Reject an active i_dio_orphaned_slot outside the slot range during
dinode validation, before DIO orphan recovery can consume it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix slab-out-of-bounds read in ksmbd_alloc_user()
ksmbd_alloc_user() copies resp->hash_sz bytes out of the mountd IPC
login response with
user->passkey_sz = resp->hash_sz;
user->passkey = kmalloc(resp->hash_sz, KSMBD_DEFAULT_GFP);
if (user->passkey)
memcpy(user->passkey, resp->hash, resp->hash_sz);
resp->hash_sz is a __u16 supplied by the response, but resp->hash[] is
only KSMBD_REQ_MAX_HASH_SZ bytes. A malformed or malicious login
response can set hash_sz well beyond that (up to 65535), so the memcpy()
reads past the end of the response object. ipc_validate_msg() does not
bound hash_sz, so reject any response whose hash_sz exceeds the on-stack
hash[] buffer before allocating and copying.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: defer publishing granted locks to prevent UAF/double-free race
In smb2_lock(), mid-batch granted locks are published to connection-wide
(conn->lock_list) and file-wide (fp->lock_list) lists immediately upon
vfs_lock_file() success, while also remaining tracked on the stack-local
rollback_list.
If a subsequent element in the same SMB2_LOCK request array fails
validation or execution, the thread jumps to out: and walks
rollback_list to undo previously granted locks. However, because the
granted lock was already published to conn->lock_list, a concurrent
UNLOCK request on the same connection can find the lock object and
kfree() it before the rollback loop executes.
When the granting thread subsequently walks rollback_list, it
dereferences and frees the already-freed ksmbd_lock structure, resulting
in a Use-After-Free and Double-Free (on both ksmbd_lock and struct
file_lock).
Fix this by deferring the publication of granted locks to
conn->lock_list and fp->lock_list until after the entire array of lock
elements has been processed without error. Mid-batch grants remain
tracked exclusively on the request-local rollback_list until the whole
batch succeeds, eliminating the race window. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
erofs: fix interlaced ztailpacking pclusters
On-disk sizes of interlaced pclusters should be block-aligned, and
ztailpacking interlaced pclusters should be invalid at all.
Currently, mkfs.erofs won't generate any interlaced pcluster with
ztailpacking enabled, so this doesn't affect any existing valid
filesystems.
However, crafted images can contain invalid interlaced ztailpacking
pclusters, resulting in an out-of-bounds read from a kmap'd page and
copying irrelevant kernel memory into userspace-visible page cache. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: bound smb_check_perm_dacl() ACE walks by DACL size
smb_check_perm_dacl() validates that the DACL fits inside the NT
security descriptor, but then bounds its two ACE walks by the
remaining NTSD length (acl_size) rather than the DACL's declared
size (pdacl_size).
When pdacl->size is smaller than the trailing NTSD buffer, bytes
after the declared DACL boundary - still inside the stored security
descriptor - are parsed as ACEs during access checks. A crafted
DACL can place an access-granting ACE beyond pdacl->size, and the
current code accepts it during SMB2_CREATE access validation, while
parse_dacl() and smb_inherit_dacl() stop at pdacl_size.
Bound both ACE walks by pdacl_size to match the DACL boundary
semantics used elsewhere in the server.
Validation:
- semantic KUnit harness shows the post-boundary ACE is selected
before the fix and rejected (EACCES) after it
- linux master (7.2-rc6), x86_64 |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSv4/flexfiles: fix NULL dereference for NFSv4.0 data servers
flexfiles accepts NFSv4.0 data servers, but two NFSv4 code paths assume
the data server client has a session. Unlike NFSv4.1+, an NFSv4.0 client
has no session (clp->cl_session is NULL; it uses clp->cl_slot_tbl), so
I/O to a v4.0 flexfiles DS oopses:
- nfs4_init_ds_session() dereferences clp->cl_session->session_state
while seeding the DS lease. It also only seeds cl_lease_time when
NFS4_SESSION_INITING is set; without a session that never happens, so
cl_lease_time stays 0 and nfs4_renew_state() busy-loops, requeuing
every 5 seconds. Seed the lease whenever there is no session and
return before touching session state.
- ff_layout_async_handle_error_v4() dereferences
clp->cl_session->fc_slot_table on every DS I/O error. Fall back to the
v4.0 transport slot table (clp->cl_slot_tbl) when there is no session. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, xdp: move offload check into dev_xdp_install()
bpf_xdp_link_update() calls dev_xdp_install() directly and skips
dev_xdp_attach(), so the checks in dev_xdp_attach() do not run. A user can
make an XDP link with a normal program and then swap in an offloaded or
device-bound program with BPF_LINK_UPDATE, which puts it on the software
path.
dev_xdp_install() is the one place all three paths go through:
"ip link set xdp" and BPF_LINK_CREATE reach it via dev_xdp_attach(), and
BPF_LINK_UPDATE calls it directly. So move the program checks (offloaded,
bound to another device, device-bound in generic mode, native vs generic,
DEVMAP and CPUMAP) there, and keep only the netlink-flag check
(XDP_FLAGS_UPDATE_IF_NOEXIST) in dev_xdp_attach(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ip6mr: do not clone dst in ip6mr_cache_report()
IPv6 input attaches a non-refcounted (NOREF) dst to skbs under RCU.
When an ingress multicast packet misses MFC lookup,
ip6mr_cache_unresolved() places the skb onto the unresolved queue,
escaping the receive-side RCU grace period.
If the underlying route is deleted and freed, and the MFC queue is later
resolved with a wrong parent interface, ip6_mr_forward() invokes
ip6mr_cache_report(..., MRT6MSG_WRONGMIF), which executes
dst_clone(skb_dst(pkt)) on the freed dst entry, triggering a slab
use-after-free.
Report packets queued to mroute6_sk (a raw socket) and netlink
notifications do not require an attached dst entry.
Fix this by:
1. Removing dst_clone() in ip6mr_cache_report() and ensuring report skbs
do not hold a dst.
2. Dropping skb_dst before queuing unresolved skbs in
ip6mr_cache_unresolved(), matching the fact that multicast
forwarding resolves outgoing routes anew via ip6_route_output(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: L2CAP: access chan->conn safely in get/setsockopt
Since commit b66774b48dd9 ("Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix UAF in channel timeout by holding conn ref")
l2cap_chan::conn has held reference and remains non-NULL also after the
corresponding hci_conn is deleted. In this state accessing various
fields eg. hci_conn::hdev is invalid, which leads to KASAN crash in
l2cap_sock_setsockopt() access of conn->hcon->hdev.
Check l2cap_chan::conn.hcon corresponds to an alive hci_conn before
trying to use it in l2cap_sock.c. Hold l2cap_chan_lock() in
getsockopt/setsockopt to ensure it stays alive, and to avoid data races
in l2cap_chan fields. |

USB: gadget: ffs: fix mm lifetime handling
io_data stores a pointer to the submitting task's mm_struct,
but does not currently hold a reference to it while async

This can result in a use-after-free if the task exits before
completion handling finishes.
Take a reference with mmgrab() when queuing the read request
and release it with mmdrop() on request completion. |

usb: gadget: f_fs: Fix Use-After-Free in AIO error path
In ffs_epfile_write_iter() and ffs_epfile_read_iter(), when ffs_epfile_io()
fails with an error other than -EIOCBQUEUED, the io_data structure (`p`) is
freed. However, for AIO operations, the kiocb cancel function was already
armed and kiocb->private was set to `p`.
If a concurrent cancel operation (such as sys_io_cancel()) executes after
ffs_epfile_io() fails but before the function frees `p`, a Use-After-Free
can occur when the cancellation handler accesses the freed pointer.
To securely fix this race condition, we must properly un-arm the
cancellation. Invoking `kiocb->ki_complete()` does exactly this by
acquiring `ctx->ctx_lock` and safely removing the kiocb from the active
sequence. In doing so, it ensures that a parallel io_cancel can no longer
discover the kiocb, effectively closing the race window.
We then return -EIOCBQUEUED to notify the VFS layer that the kiocb has been
consumed and it should avoid attempting to complete the request again or
triggering subsequent completion handlers. |

HID: sony: clean up device list on probe failure
sony_input_configured() adds some controllers to sony_device_list before
HID core registers their input devices. input_register_device() can fail
after the callback returns successfully. sony_probe() then observes that
HID_CLAIMED_INPUT is clear and unwinds, but only stops the HID hardware.
The devres-managed sony_sc is freed while its list node remains linked, so
the next matching controller traverses freed memory.
Initialize the list node and device ID to inactive states. Make list
removal idempotent and run the driver-private cleanup on every probe
failure path. This also makes a second cleanup safe when
sony_input_configured() already unwound a partial initialization before
sony_probe() handles the missing input claim.
Found by 0sec (https://0sec.ai) using automated source analysis;
verified against the HID input registration and probe unwind paths. |

staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB read in rtw_restruct_wmm_ie()
rtw_restruct_wmm_ie() scans in_ie for a WMM IE with:
while (i < in_len) {
...
if (i + 5 < in_len && in_ie[i] == 0xDD && ...) {
...
break;
}
i += (in_ie[i + 1] + 2); /* to the next IE element */
}
When the "i + 5 < in_len" match check fails simply because i is
within 5 bytes of the end of the buffer (i.e. no WMM IE was found
near the tail of in_ie), execution falls through to
"i += (in_ie[i + 1] + 2)", which reads in_ie[i + 1]. If i == in_len
- 1 at that point, this is a 1-byte out-of-bounds read of an
attacker-influenced IE buffer built from association/scan data.
Commit a75281626fc8f ("staging: rtl8723bs: fix potential
out-of-bounds read in rtw_restruct_wmm_ie") added the "i + 5 <
in_len" guard to the match condition itself, but did not add an
equivalent guard before the fallthrough advance, so the same class
of OOB read remained reachable through the non-matching path.
Add an explicit bounds check before advancing to the next IE. |

tracing: Take trace_array reference when opening options file
The options files do not take the trace_array reference for the options
they represent. This could cause a use-after-free kernel crash if one of
these files is opened by one task and another task removes the instance
that the option is for. Because it doesn't take a reference upon opening,
it will not stop the removal which will free the options descriptor that
is being used.
As the options are somewhat dynamic in their creation at boot up, each
file represents a flag in the trace_array. The trace_array has an array of
indexes to represent each of these flags that is stored in the
trace_flags_index array. The address of the index array element is used to
pass to the inode->i_private pointer. Then that element is read which
holds the index (which represents the flag) and then the index is used to
calculate the trace_array descriptor from its trace_flags_index array.
One issue is that the index element can not be referenced until the
trace_array's reference is taken. To handle this, create a new helper
function called: trace_array_options_get() that will iterate all the
existing trace_arrays in the ftrace_trace_arrays list (under the
trace_types_lock), and compare the passed in address of the index element
with the entire array of the trace_array's trace_flags_index array.
If it matches, then up the corresponding trace_array's reference and
return. |

ftrace: Take trace_array reference before accessing its ftrace_ops
The trace instance files set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace was
updated to work with specific trace instances (trace_arrays). The issue is
that when these files are opened, there is a small race window where it
will use the ftrace_ops from the inode->private pointer to get a reference
to the trace_array and then take its reference. The problem is that the
ftrace_ops itself could be freed. If the rmdir on the instance happens at
the same time the set_ftrace_filter file is opened, the rmdir could have
also freed the ftrace_ops and referencing it will cause a use-after-free
bug and crash the kernel.
Instead, pass in the trace_array as the file private data (NULL for the
top level instance), and then pass both the trace_array and the ftrace_ops
to the ftrace_regex_open() function. If the trace_array is NULL, then it
just uses the ftrace_ops without the need to take its reference (like
normal). If the ftrace_ops is NULL, that is only the case for the top
level instance and the global_ops can be used.
This allows the trace_array to have its reference incremented before
touching the ftrace_ops that could also be freed when the instance is. |

dma-direct: return struct page from dma_direct_alloc_from_pool()
Commit 5b138c534fda ("dma-direct: factor out a dma_direct_alloc_from_pool
helper") changed dma_direct_alloc_from_pool() to return the CPU address
from dma_alloc_from_pool(). That fits dma_direct_alloc(), but
dma_direct_alloc_pages() also uses the helper and expects a struct page *.
Fix this by making dma_direct_alloc_from_pool() return the struct page *
again, and pass the CPU address back through an out-parameter for the
dma_direct_alloc() caller. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kprobes: Protect kprobe_blacklist with RCU
__within_kprobe_blacklist() traverses kprobe_blacklist without holding
kprobe_mutex. When a module is unloaded, kprobe_remove_area_blacklist()
removes blacklist entries and immediately frees them with kfree().
A concurrent call to within_kprobe_blacklist() can therefore dereference
freed memory.
Furthermore, within_kprobe_blacklist() can be called in atomic or
non-preemptible contexts where the sleeping kprobe_mutex cannot be taken.
Protect kprobe_blacklist with RCU. Use guard(rcu)() and
list_for_each_entry_rcu() for traversal, list_add_tail_rcu() for
insertions, list_del_rcu() for deletions, and kfree_rcu() to reclaim
entries safely after a grace period. |

ALSA: harmony: initialize locks before requesting IRQ
snd_harmony_create() registers the IRQ before initializing h->lock and
h->mixer_lock. A pending interrupt can invoke the handler while these
locks are uninitialized.
Initialize both locks before requesting the IRQ so the handler always
sees valid lock state. |
