| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: Fix IPsec cleanup over MPV device
When we do mlx5e_detach_netdev() we eventually disable blocking events
notifier, among those events are IPsec MPV events from IB to core.
So before disabling those blocking events, make sure to also unregister
the devcom device and mark all this device operations as complete,
in order to prevent the other device from using invalid netdev
during future devcom events which could cause the trace below.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: avoid NULL dereference when chunk data buffer is missing
chunk->skb pointer is dereferenced in the if-block where it's supposed
to be NULL only.
chunk->skb can only be NULL if chunk->head_skb is not. Check for frag_list
instead and do it just before replacing chunk->skb. We're sure that
otherwise chunk->skb is non-NULL because of outer if() condition. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: phy: micrel: always set shared->phydev for LAN8814
Currently, during the LAN8814 PTP probe shared->phydev is only set if PTP
clock gets actually set, otherwise the function will return before setting
it.
This is an issue as shared->phydev is unconditionally being used when IRQ
is being handled, especially in lan8814_gpio_process_cap and since it was
not set it will cause a NULL pointer exception and crash the kernel.
So, simply always set shared->phydev to avoid the NULL pointer exception. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
platform/x86: alienware-wmi-wmax: Fix NULL pointer dereference in sleep handlers
Devices without the AWCC interface don't initialize `awcc`. Add a check
before dereferencing it in sleep handlers. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rv: Fully convert enabled_monitors to use list_head as iterator
The callbacks in enabled_monitors_seq_ops are inconsistent. Some treat the
iterator as struct rv_monitor *, while others treat the iterator as struct
list_head *.
This causes a wrong type cast and crashes the system as reported by Nathan.
Convert everything to use struct list_head * as iterator. This also makes
enabled_monitors consistent with available_monitors. |

drm/panthor: Fix kernel panic on partial unmap of a GPU VA region
This commit address a kernel panic issue that can happen if Userspace
tries to partially unmap a GPU virtual region (aka drm_gpuva).
The VM_BIND interface allows partial unmapping of a BO.
Panthor driver pre-allocates memory for the new drm_gpuva structures
that would be needed for the map/unmap operation, done using drm_gpuvm
layer. It expected that only one new drm_gpuva would be needed on umap
but a partial unmap can require 2 new drm_gpuva and that's why it
ended up doing a NULL pointer dereference causing a kernel panic.
Following dump was seen when partial unmap was exercised.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/sysfs: catch commit test ctx alloc failure
Patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: fix commit test damon_ctx [de]allocation".
DAMON sysfs interface dynamically allocates and uses a damon_ctx object
for testing if given inputs for online DAMON parameters update is valid.
The object is being used without an allocation failure check, and leaked
when the test succeeds. Fix the two bugs.
This patch (of 2):
The damon_ctx for testing online DAMON parameters commit inputs is used
without its allocation failure check. This could result in an invalid
memory access. Fix it by directly returning an error when the allocation
failed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/sysfs: dealloc commit test ctx always
The damon_ctx for testing online DAMON parameters commit inputs is
deallocated only when the test fails. This means memory is leaked for
every successful online DAMON parameters commit. Fix the leak by always
deallocating it. |

hwmon: (cgbc-hwmon) Add missing NULL check after devm_kzalloc()
The driver allocates memory for sensor data using devm_kzalloc(), but

failure, dereferencing the NULL pointer would lead to a kernel crash.
Add a NULL pointer check and return -ENOMEM to handle allocation failure
properly. |

fuse: fix livelock in synchronous file put from fuseblk workers
I observed a hang when running generic/323 against a fuseblk server.
This test opens a file, initiates a lot of AIO writes to that file
descriptor, and closes the file descriptor before the writes complete.
Unsurprisingly, the AIO exerciser threads are mostly stuck waiting for
responses from the fuseblk server:

But the /weird/ part is that the fuseblk server threads are waiting for
responses from itself:

[<0>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x4b/0x53
The fuseblk server is fuse2fs so there's nothing all that exciting in
the server itself. So why is the fuse server calling fuse_file_put?
The commit message for the fstest sheds some light on that:
"By closing the file descriptor before calling io_destroy, you pretty
much guarantee that the last put on the ioctx will be done in interrupt
context (during I/O completion).
Aha. AIO fgets a new struct file from the fd when it queues the ioctx.
The completion of the FUSE_WRITE command from userspace causes the fuse
server to call the AIO completion function. The completion puts the
struct file, queuing a delayed fput to the fuse server task. When the
fuse server task returns to userspace, it has to run the delayed fput,
which in the case of a fuseblk server, it does synchronously.
Sending the FUSE_RELEASE command sychronously from fuse server threads
is a bad idea because a client program can initiate enough simultaneous
AIOs such that all the fuse server threads end up in delayed_fput, and
now there aren't any threads left to handle the queued fuse commands.
Fix this by only using asynchronous fputs when closing files, and leave
a comment explaining why. |

mm: prevent poison consumption when splitting THP
When performing memory error injection on a THP (Transparent Huge Page)
mapped to userspace on an x86 server, the kernel panics with the following
trace. The expected behavior is to terminate the affected process instead
of panicking the kernel, as the x86 Machine Check code can recover from an
in-userspace #MC.
mce: [Hardware Error]: CPU 0: Machine Check Exception: f Bank 3: bd80000000070134
mce: [Hardware Error]: RIP 10:<ffffffff8372f8bc> {memchr_inv+0x4c/0xf0}

mce: [Hardware Error]: Run the above through 'mcelog --ascii'
mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check: Data load in unrecoverable area of kernel
Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal local machine check
The root cause of this panic is that handling a memory failure triggered
by an in-userspace #MC necessitates splitting the THP. The splitting
process employs a mechanism, implemented in
try_to_map_unused_to_zeropage(), which reads the pages in the THP to
identify zero-filled pages. However, reading the pages in the THP results
in a second in-kernel #MC, occurring before the initial memory_failure()
completes, ultimately leading to a kernel panic. See the kernel panic
call trace on the two #MCs.
First Machine Check occurs // [1]
memory_failure() // [2]
try_to_split_thp_page()
split_huge_page()
split_huge_page_to_list_to_order()
__folio_split() // [3]
remap_page()
remove_migration_ptes()
remove_migration_pte()
try_to_map_unused_to_zeropage() // [4]
memchr_inv() // [5]
Second Machine Check occurs // [6]
Kernel panic
[1] Triggered by accessing a hardware-poisoned THP in userspace, which is
typically recoverable by terminating the affected process.
[2] Call folio_set_has_hwpoisoned() before try_to_split_thp_page().
[3] Pass the RMP_USE_SHARED_ZEROPAGE remap flag to remap_page().
[4] Try to map the unused THP to zeropage.
[5] Re-access pages in the hw-poisoned THP in the kernel.
[6] Triggered in-kernel, leading to a panic kernel.
In Step[2], memory_failure() sets the poisoned flag on the page in the THP
by TestSetPageHWPoison() before calling try_to_split_thp_page().
As suggested by David Hildenbrand, fix this panic by not accessing to the
poisoned page in the THP during zeropage identification, while continuing
to scan unaffected pages in the THP for possible zeropage mapping. This
prevents a second in-kernel #MC that would cause kernel panic in Step[4].
Thanks to Andrew Zaborowski for his initial work on fixing this issue. |

tty: serial: sh-sci: fix RSCI FIFO overrun handling
The receive error handling code is shared between RSCI and all other
SCIF port types, but the RSCI overrun_reg is specified as a memory
offset, while for other SCIF types it is an enum value used to index
into the sci_port_params->regs array, as mentioned above the
sci_serial_in() function.
For RSCI, the overrun_reg is CSR (0x48), causing the sci_getreg() call
inside the sci_handle_fifo_overrun() function to index outside the
bounds of the regs array, which currently has a size of 20, as specified
by SCI_NR_REGS.
Because of this, we end up accessing memory outside of RSCI's
rsci_port_params structure, which, when interpreted as a plat_sci_reg,
happens to have a non-zero size, causing the following WARN when
sci_serial_in() is called, as the accidental size does not match the
supported register sizes.
The existence of the overrun_reg needs to be checked because
SCIx_SH3_SCIF_REGTYPE has overrun_reg set to SCLSR, but SCLSR is not
present in the regs array.
Avoid calling sci_getreg() for port types which don't use standard
register handling.
Use the ops->read_reg() and ops->write_reg() functions to properly read
and write registers for RSCI, and change the type of the status variable
to accommodate the 32-bit CSR register.
sci_getreg() and sci_serial_in() are also called with overrun_reg in the
sci_mpxed_interrupt() interrupt handler, but that code path is not used
for RSCI, as it does not have a muxed interrupt.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: pci: mg4b: fix uninitialized iio scan data
Fix potential leak of uninitialized stack data to userspace by ensuring
that the `scan` structure is zeroed before use. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: delete x->tunnel as we delete x
The ipcomp fallback tunnels currently get deleted (from the various
lists and hashtables) as the last user state that needed that fallback
is destroyed (not deleted). If a reference to that user state still
exists, the fallback state will remain on the hashtables/lists,
triggering the WARN in xfrm_state_fini. Because of those remaining
references, the fix in commit f75a2804da39 ("xfrm: destroy xfrm_state
synchronously on net exit path") is not complete.
We recently fixed one such situation in TCP due to defered freeing of
skbs (commit 9b6412e6979f ("tcp: drop secpath at the same time as we
currently drop dst")). This can also happen due to IP reassembly: skbs
with a secpath remain on the reassembly queue until netns
destruction. If we can't guarantee that the queues are flushed by the
time xfrm_state_fini runs, there may still be references to a (user)
xfrm_state, preventing the timely deletion of the corresponding
fallback state.
Instead of chasing each instance of skbs holding a secpath one by one,
this patch fixes the issue directly within xfrm, by deleting the
fallback state as soon as the last user state depending on it has been
deleted. Destruction will still happen when the final reference is
dropped.
A separate lockdep class for the fallback state is required since
we're going to lock x->tunnel while x is locked. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/rsrc: don't rely on user vaddr alignment
There is no guaranteed alignment for user pointers, however the
calculation of an offset of the first page into a folio after coalescing
uses some weird bit mask logic, get rid of it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix refcount leak in nfsd_set_fh_dentry()
nfsd exports a "pseudo root filesystem" which is used by NFSv4 to find
the various exported filesystems using LOOKUP requests from a known root
filehandle. NFSv3 uses the MOUNT protocol to find those exported
filesystems and so is not given access to the pseudo root filesystem.
If a v3 (or v2) client uses a filehandle from that filesystem,
nfsd_set_fh_dentry() will report an error, but still stores the export
in "struct svc_fh" even though it also drops the reference (exp_put()).
This means that when fh_put() is called an extra reference will be dropped
which can lead to use-after-free and possible denial of service.
Normal NFS usage will not provide a pseudo-root filehandle to a v3
client. This bug can only be triggered by the client synthesising an
incorrect filehandle.
To fix this we move the assignments to the svc_fh later, after all
possible error cases have been detected. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPI: video: Fix use-after-free in acpi_video_switch_brightness()
The switch_brightness_work delayed work accesses device->brightness
and device->backlight, freed by acpi_video_dev_unregister_backlight()
during device removal.
If the work executes after acpi_video_bus_unregister_backlight()
frees these resources, it causes a use-after-free when
acpi_video_switch_brightness() dereferences device->brightness or
device->backlight.
Fix this by calling cancel_delayed_work_sync() for each device's
switch_brightness_work in acpi_video_bus_remove_notify_handler()
after removing the notify handler that queues the work. This ensures
the work completes before the memory is freed.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix memory leak of qgroup_list in btrfs_add_qgroup_relation
When btrfs_add_qgroup_relation() is called with invalid qgroup levels
(src >= dst), the function returns -EINVAL directly without freeing the
preallocated qgroup_list structure passed by the caller. This causes a
memory leak because the caller unconditionally sets the pointer to NULL
after the call, preventing any cleanup.
The issue occurs because the level validation check happens before the
mutex is acquired and before any error handling path that would free
the prealloc pointer. On this early return, the cleanup code at the
'out' label (which includes kfree(prealloc)) is never reached.
In btrfs_ioctl_qgroup_assign(), the code pattern is:
prealloc = kzalloc(sizeof(*prealloc), GFP_KERNEL);
ret = btrfs_add_qgroup_relation(trans, sa->src, sa->dst, prealloc);
prealloc = NULL; // Always set to NULL regardless of return value
...
kfree(prealloc); // This becomes kfree(NULL), does nothing
When the level check fails, 'prealloc' is never freed by either the
callee or the caller, resulting in a 64-byte memory leak per failed
operation. This can be triggered repeatedly by an unprivileged user
with access to a writable btrfs mount, potentially exhausting kernel
memory.
Fix this by freeing prealloc before the early return, ensuring prealloc
is always freed on all error paths. |
