| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs3: cap RESTART_TABLE free-chain walker at rt->used
A crafted NTFS3 disk image triggers an in-kernel infinite loop at
mount time, hanging the mounting thread and firing the soft-lockup
watchdog within ~22s on multi-CPU hosts (panic with
kernel.softlockup_panic=1). The bug is reachable from desktop USB
auto-mount on distributions where udisks2 routes the NTFS signature
to the in-tree ntfs3 driver (Arch family and an increasing fraction
of Fedora / openSUSE / RHEL deployments); CAP_SYS_ADMIN-class manual
mount elsewhere.
check_rstbl()'s second walker iterates the free-entry singly-linked
list headed by rt->first_free with no upper bound on iteration count:
for (off = ff; off;) {
if (off == RESTART_ENTRY_ALLOCATED)
return false;
off = le32_to_cpu(*(__le32 *)Add2Ptr(rt, off));
if (off > ts - sizeof(__le32))
return false;
}
The existing guards cover three exits: end-of-list (off == 0), the
in-use marker (off == RESTART_ENTRY_ALLOCATED), and out-of-bounds
(off > ts - sizeof(__le32)). None of the three prevents an
in-bounds cycle.
A crafted on-disk RESTART_TABLE whose free chain contains a
self-loop or A->B->A cycle whose offsets satisfy:
- in range [sizeof(struct RESTART_TABLE), ts - sizeof(__le32)]
- (off - sizeof(struct RESTART_TABLE)) % rsize == 0
passes all existing guards and spins the mount-time thread forever.
Reproduced in UML by hand-forging a 2 MB NTFS3 image whose journal
RESTART_TABLE first_free = 0x18 and whose entry at offset 0x18
stores 0x18 as its next pointer; mount of the forged image with
the in-tree ntfs3 driver never returns.
Bound the walker by rt->used. Each entry on a legitimate free
chain is unique, and the total slot count is ne = le16_to_cpu
(rt->used). A traversal that visits more than ne slots is by
construction malformed; reject it as a corrupt RESTART_TABLE.
After this patch, mount of the forged image returns with -EINVAL
and a log_replay failure message, and mkntfs-produced legitimate
images mount cleanly (verified in the same UML harness). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
power: supply: charger-manager: fix refcount leak in is_full_charged()
In is_full_charged(), power_supply_get_by_name() is called to
obtain a reference to the fuel_gauge power supply. If the
voltage check (uV >= desc->fullbatt_uV) succeeds, the function
returns true directly without releasing the reference, leaking
the refcount.
Fix this by setting a flag and jumping to the out label where
power_supply_put() properly drops the reference. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: fix dir put orders in access_pattern_add_dirs()
Patch series "mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: fix wrong directories put orders in
error paths".
Error paths of damon_sysfs_access_pattern_add_dirs() and
damon_sysfs_scheme_add_dirs() functions put references to directories in
wrong orders. As a result, uninitialized memory dereference and/or
memory leak can happen. Fix those.
This patch (of 2):
In access_pattern_add_dirs(), error handling path puts references starting
from setup failed directories. If the failure happpened from the initial
allication in the setup functions, uninitialized memory dereference
happen. The allocation failures will not commonly happen, but the
consequence is quite bad. Fix the wrong reference put orders.
The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/9p: fix infinite loop in p9_client_rpc on fatal signal
When p9_client_rpc() is called with type P9_TFLUSH and the transport
has no peer (e.g. fd transport backed by pipes with no 9p server),
a fatal signal causes an infinite loop:
again:
err = io_wait_event_killable(req->wq, ...)
/* SIGKILL wakes the task, returns -ERESTARTSYS */
if (err == -ERESTARTSYS && c->status == Connected &&
type == P9_TFLUSH) {
sigpending = 1;
clear_thread_flag(TIF_SIGPENDING);
goto again;
}
clear_thread_flag() clears TIF_SIGPENDING before jumping back to
io_wait_event_killable(). signal_pending_state() checks TIF_SIGPENDING,
finds it zero, and the task goes to sleep again. The task can only wake
on the next signal delivery that calls signal_wake_up() and sets
TIF_SIGPENDING again. When that happens the loop repeats, clears
TIF_SIGPENDING, and sleeps again indefinitely.
This is triggered in practice by coredump_wait(): when a thread in a
multi-threaded process causes a coredump (e.g. via SIGSYS from Syscall
User Dispatch), coredump_wait() sends SIGKILL to all other threads and
waits for them to call mm_release(). If one of those threads is blocked
in p9_client_rpc() over an fd transport with no peer, it enters the
P9_TFLUSH loop and never calls mm_release(), so coredump_wait() stalls
forever:

Fix: check fatal_signal_pending() before clearing TIF_SIGPENDING in the
P9_TFLUSH retry loop. At that point TIF_SIGPENDING is still set, so
fatal_signal_pending() works correctly. If a fatal signal is pending,
jump to recalc_sigpending to restore TIF_SIGPENDING and return
-ERESTARTSYS to the caller.
The same defect is present in stable kernels back to 5.4. On those
kernels the infinite loop is broken earlier by a second SIGKILL from
the parent process (e.g. kill_and_wait() retrying after a timeout),
resulting in a zombie process and a shutdown delay rather than a
permanent D-state hang, but the underlying flaw is the same.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: fix NULL h_transaction deref in ocfs2_assure_trans_credits
[BUG]
A direct write over unwritten extents can panic the kernel in
ocfs2_assure_trans_credits() when the journal aborts during DIO
completion. The crash is a general protection fault from a NULL pointer
dereference.
[CAUSE]
ocfs2_dio_end_io_write() loops over a direct write's unwritten extents,
marking each written under a single journal handle. If the journal
aborts (for example after an I/O error) while the extent tree is being
updated, the handle is left aborted with its transaction pointer
cleared. The extent merge treats that failure as not critical and
reports success, so the loop keeps using the handle.
ocfs2_assure_trans_credits() reads the handle's remaining credits
without first checking whether the handle is aborted, and that read
dereferences the cleared transaction pointer.
[FIX]
A journal abort is recorded in the handle itself, so callers are
expected to test the handle rather than rely on a returned error.
Make ocfs2_assure_trans_credits() do that, as the other ocfs2 journal
helpers already do, and return -EROFS when the handle is aborted. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: reject non-inline dinodes with i_size and zero i_clusters
On a volume mounted without OCFS2_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_SPARSE_ALLOC, a
non-inline regular file with non-zero i_size and zero i_clusters is
structurally malformed: the extent map declares no allocated clusters yet
the size header claims content exists. Keep rejecting that shape, but
express it through a shared predicate so the same invariant is available
to normal inode reads and online filecheck.
The same zero-cluster shape is also malformed for non-inline directories.
ocfs2 directory growth allocates backing storage before advancing i_size,
and ocfs2_dir_foreach_blk_el() later walks until ctx->pos reaches
i_size_read(inode). A forged directory dinode with a huge i_size and no
clusters would repeatedly fail on holes while advancing through the
claimed size.
Sparse regular files remain exempt: on sparse-alloc volumes, truncate can
legitimately grow i_size without allocating clusters. System inodes and
inline-data dinodes also retain their separate storage rules.
Mirror the check in ocfs2_filecheck_validate_inode_block() as well.
filecheck reports through its own error namespace, so malformed
size/cluster state is logged as a filecheck invalid-inode result rather
than via ocfs2_error(), but it must not proceed into
ocfs2_populate_inode(). |

mtd: spi-nor: swp: Improve locking user experience
In the case of the first block being locked (or the few first blocks),
if the user want to fully unlock the device it has two possibilities:
- either it asks to unlock the entire device, and this works;
- or it asks to unlock just the block(s) that are currently locked,
which fails.
It fails because the conditions "can_be_top" and "can_be_bottom" are
true. Indeed, in this case, we unlock everything, so the TB bit does not
matter. However in the current implementation, use_top would be true (as
this is the favourite option) and lock_len, which in practice should be
reduced down to 0, is set to "nor->params->size - (ofs + len)" which is
a positive number. This is wrong.
An easy way is to simply add an extra condition. In the unlock() path,
if we can achieve the same result from both sides, it means we unlock
everything and lock_len must simply be 0. A comment is added to clarify
that logic. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tpm: tpm_tis_spi: Use wait_woken() in wait_for_tmp_stat()
wait_event_interruptible_timeout() evaluates its condition after setting
the current task state to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE.
With CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP this triggers a warning when the IRQ wait
path is used:
tpm_tis_status()
tpm_tis_spi_read_bytes()
tpm_tis_spi_transfer_full()
spi_bus_lock()
mutex_lock()
Address this with the following measures:
1. Call wait_tpm_stat_cond() only while tasking is running.
2. Use wait_woken() to wait for changes. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: imx: fix locked bus on SMBus block-read of 0 (atomic)
SMBus 3.1 6.5.7 allows a Block Read byte count of 0, but the atomic
(polling) path rejects it as -EPROTO. Worse, it returns without a
NACK+STOP: the next receive cycle has already started, so the target
keeps holding SDA and the bus stays stuck until a power cycle for
this i2c controller.
Reading I2DR to obtain the count likewise arms the next byte on the
count > I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX path, which also returned -EPROTO directly
and left the bus held.
Handle both: NACK the in-flight dummy byte (TXAK) and extend msgs->len so
the existing last-byte handling emits STOP; the dummy byte is discarded.
A count of 0 is a valid empty block read; a count above
I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX is still reported as -EPROTO, but only after the bus
has been released.
The interrupt-driven path has the same flaw from a later commit and is
fixed separately, as it carries a different Fixes: tag and stable range. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xen/gntdev: fix error handling in ioctl
When gntdev_ioctl_map_grant_ref() fails to copy the operation result
back to userspace after successfully adding the mapping to the list,
the error path returns -EFAULT without releasing the reference
acquired by gntdev_alloc_map(). The mapping remains in priv->maps
with a refcount of 1, causing a memory leak and a dangling list
entry.
Additionally, gntdev_add_map() may modify map->index to avoid overlap
with existing mappings. Therefore, the index returned to userspace
must be obtained after gntdev_add_map() completes.
Fix this by holding the mutex across gntdev_add_map(), retrieving
the correct index, and copy_to_user(). If copy_to_user() fails,
remove the mapping from the list and release the reference while
still holding the lock.
Fix these issues by properly handling all error cases. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: bcm: fix CAN frame rx/tx statistics
KCSAN detected a data race within the bcm_rx_handler() when two CAN frames
have been simultaneously received and processed in a single rx op by two
different CPUs.
Use atomic operations with (signed) long data types to access the
statistics in the hot path to fix the KCSAN complaint.
Additionally simplify the update and check of statistics overflow by
using the atomic operations in separate bcm_update_[rx|tx]_stats()
functions. The rx variant runs under bcm_rx_update_lock to prevent
races when resetting the two rx counters; the tx variant runs under
bcm_tx_lock and only needs to guard its own counter's overflow.
As the rx path resets its values already at LONG_MAX / 100, there is
no conflict between the two locking domains (bcm_rx_update_lock vs.
bcm_tx_lock) even for ops that use both paths.
The rx statistics update and the frames_filtered update in
bcm_rx_changed() were previously performed in two separate
bcm_rx_update_lock sections. For an rx op subscribed on all interfaces
(ifindex == 0), bcm_rx_handler() can run concurrently on different
CPUs, so a counter reset by one CPU between these two sections could
leave frames_filtered larger than frames_abs on another CPU, producing
a bogus (even negative) reduction percentage in procfs. Update the
statistics in the same critical section as bcm_rx_changed() to close
this gap, which also removes the now unneeded extra lock/unlock pair
around the traffic_flags calculation. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: bcm: fix data race on rx_stamp/rx_ifindex in bcm_rx_handler()
For an rx op subscribed on all interfaces (ifindex == 0), the same op
is registered once in the shared per-netns wildcard filter list, so
bcm_rx_handler() can run concurrently on different CPUs for frames
arriving on different net devices.
op->rx_stamp and op->rx_ifindex were written before bcm_rx_update_lock was
taken, allowing concurrent writers to race each other - including a torn
store of the 64-bit rx_stamp on 32-bit platforms.
Beyond a torn store bcm_send_to_user() must report the timestamp/ifindex
of the very same frame whose content it is delivering. So the assignment
is placed in the same unbroken bcm_rx_update_lock section as the content
comparison.
As a side effect, the RTR-request frame feature (which never reach
bcm_send_to_user()) no longer updates rx_stamp/rx_ifindex, since only
the notification path needs them. |

dm-verity: make error counter atomic

subject to race conditions. The call to

scsi: hpsa: Fix DMA mapping leak on IOACCEL2 reset path
If phys_disk->in_reset is set, the function returns directly without
undoing the resources acquired for the command. Add the missing error
cleanup by unmapping the IOACCEL2 SG chain block when needed, unmapping
the SCSI command, and dropping the outstanding IOACCEL command count
before returning. |

scsi: lpfc: Fix memory leak in lpfc_sli4_driver_resource_setup()
The memory allocated for mboxq using mempool_alloc() is not freed in
some of the early exit error paths. Fix that by moving the
mempool_free() call to an earlier point after last use. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: xen: scsiback: Free the command tag on the TMR submit-failure path
scsiback_device_action() obtains a command tag in
scsiback_get_pend_req() and submits a task-management request with
target_submit_tmr(). When target_submit_tmr() fails it returns < 0 and
scsiback jumps to the err: label, which sends a response but frees
nothing, leaking the tag.
Impact: a pvSCSI guest can leak the command tags of a LUN's session,
stopping the LUN, by issuing VSCSIIF_ACT_SCSI_ABORT or RESET requests
whenever target_submit_tmr() fails.
transport_generic_free_cmd() cannot be used here. By the time
target_submit_tmr() returns an error it has already run
__target_init_cmd() (so se_cmd->cmd_kref is one, not zero), and on its
target_get_sess_cmd() error path it has freed se_cmd->se_tmr_req via
core_tmr_release_req() while leaving SCF_SCSI_TMR_CDB set and the
pointer dangling. Letting the command release run target_free_cmd_mem()
would then double-free se_tmr_req.
Use the same helper, which returns just the tag, on this path too. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: vub300: fix use-after-free on probe failure
The vub300 driver lifetime-manages its controller state using
vub300->kref, with vub300_delete() freeing the mmc host when the last
reference is dropped. The probe error path after the inactivity timer has
been armed still bypasses that lifetime rule, however, and falls through
to mmc_free_host() directly if mmc_add_host() fails.
The race window is between arming the inactivity timer and reaching the
probe error unwind after mmc_add_host() fails:
probe thread timer/workqueue
------------ ---------------
kref_init(&vub300->kref) ref = 1
kref_get(&vub300->kref) ref = 2, timer ref
add_timer(inactivity_timer) fires after one second
|
| race window
|<---------------------------------------------------->
|
mmc_add_host(mmc)
inactivity timer fires
vub300_queue_dead_work()
kref_get() ref = 3
queue_work(deadwork)
mmc_add_host() fails
timer_delete_sync()
mmc_free_host(mmc)
frees vub300
deadwork runs
use-after-free
The inactivity timeout is one second, so this would require
mmc_add_host() to both fail and take more than one second to do so. This
is unlikely to happen in practice, but the error path is still wrong.
timer_delete_sync() only waits for the timer callback itself. It does
not flush deadwork that the callback may already have queued. As a
result, queued deadwork can still hold a kref while the probe error path
directly frees the backing mmc host, including the vub300 storage.
Fix this by using the same lifetime mechanism as disconnect. Clear
vub300->interface so that the timer callback and any queued deadwork
return early and drop their references, then drop the initial probe
reference and return without falling through to err_free_host. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: libertas_tf: fix use-after-free in lbtf_free_adapter()
lbtf_free_adapter() calls timer_delete(&priv->command_timer), which does
not wait for a running command_timer_fn() callback. lbtf_free_adapter()
runs on the teardown path right before ieee80211_free_hw() frees priv,
both in lbtf_remove_card() and in the probe error path. command_timer is
armed by mod_timer() in lbtf_cmd() whenever a firmware command is sent.
command_timer_fn() dereferences priv. If a command times out as the
device is removed, command_timer_fn() runs concurrently with teardown and
dereferences priv after it has been freed.
This is the same use-after-free that commit 03cc8f90d053 ("wifi: libertas:
fix use-after-free in lbs_free_adapter()") fixed in the sibling libertas
driver. The libertas_tf variant has the identical pattern and was left
unchanged. Use timer_delete_sync() so any in-flight callback completes
before priv is freed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
posix-cpu-timers: Use u64 multiplication in update_rlimit_cpu()
update_rlimit_cpu() converts the RLIMIT_CPU value to nanoseconds with
u64 nsecs = rlim_new * NSEC_PER_SEC;
On 32-bit kernels both rlim_new (unsigned long) and NSEC_PER_SEC
(1000000000L) are 32-bit, so the multiplication is performed in unsigned
long and truncated for rlim_new > 4 seconds before being widened to u64.
The same file already casts to u64 for the matching computation in
check_process_timers():
u64 softns = (u64)soft * NSEC_PER_SEC;
As a result, the truncated value is installed into the CPUCLOCK_PROF
expiry cache (nextevt), causing the process CPU timer to be programmed
to fire prematurely for any RLIMIT_CPU soft limit >= 5 seconds. The
actual SIGXCPU/SIGKILL decision in check_process_timers() already casts
to u64 and is therefore correct, so limit enforcement is not broken;
only the expiry-cache programming is wrong. Apply the same cast here so
both paths convert rlim_cur identically.
64-bit kernels are unaffected. |
