vxlan: re-fetch eth header after route_shortcircuit()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vxlan: re-fetch eth header after route_shortcircuit()
Before route_shortcircuit(), the eth header pointer is cached from eth_hdr(skb).
Inside route_shortcircuit(), pskb_may_pull() can be called, which may
reallocate skb->head.
In this case, returning to vxlan_xmit() leaves the cached eth pointer pointing to
freed memory, leading to a use-after-free when dereferencing eth->h_dest.
Fix this by updating eth = eth_hdr(skb) after calling route_shortcircuit().
i2c: amd-mp2: Unregister callback on adapter add failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: amd-mp2: Unregister callback on adapter add failure
amd_mp2_register_cb() stores the platform I2C context in the MP2 PCI
driver's callback table before the adapter is registered. If
i2c_add_adapter() fails, probe returns and devres frees the context,
but the PCI driver can still dereference the stale pointer from its IRQ
and system-sleep callbacks.
Unregister the callback before returning the adapter registration error.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/dasd: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference
dasd_release_space() checks the implementation of the is_ese()
discipline function before calling it to determine if a given device is
an ESE DASD.
The current usage of the logical AND operator will lead to a NULL
pointer dereference as the function is called even if the function
pointer is NULL.
Fix this by using the logical OR operator.
i2c: imx: Fix slave registration race and error handling
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: imx: Fix slave registration race and error handling
In i2c_imx_reg_slave(), the slave pointer was assigned before
pm_runtime_resume_and_get(). If pm_runtime_resume_and_get() failed,
the error path returned without clearing i2c_imx->slave, leaving it
non-NULL and causing all subsequent registration attempts to fail
with -EBUSY.
Additionally, because this driver uses a shared IRQ, the interrupt
handler i2c_imx_isr() can execute concurrently and, after acquiring
slave_lock, dereference i2c_imx->slave. The previous fix attempt
added a lockless i2c_imx->slave = NULL on t
driver core: use READ_ONCE() for dev->driver in dev_has_sync_state()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
driver core: use READ_ONCE() for dev->driver in dev_has_sync_state()
dev_has_sync_state() reads dev->driver twice without holding
device_lock() -- once for the NULL check and once to dereference
->sync_state. Some callers only hold device_links_write_lock, which
doesn't prevent a concurrent unbind from clearing dev->driver via
device_unbind_cleanup().
Fix it by reading dev->driver exactly once with READ_ONCE(), pairing
with the WRITE_ONCE() in device_set_driver().
Drivers: hv: vmbus: use generic driver_override infrastructure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Drivers: hv: vmbus: use generic driver_override infrastructure
When a driver is probed through __driver_attach(), the bus' match()
callback is called without the device lock held, thus accessing the
driver_override field without a lock, which can cause a UAF.
Fix this by using the driver-core driver_override infrastructure taking
care of proper locking internally.
Note that calling match() from __driver_attach() without the device lock
held is intentional. [1]
libbpf: Reject non-exclusive metadata maps in the signed loader
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libbpf: Reject non-exclusive metadata maps in the signed loader
The loader verifies map->sha against the metadata hash in its
instructions. map->sha is calculated when BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_FD is
called on the frozen map.
While the map is frozen, the /signed loader/ must also ensure the map
is exclusive, as, without exclusivity (which a hostile host could just
omit when loading the loader), another BPF program with map access can
mutate the contents afterwards, so the check passes on stale data.
With the extra check as part of the signed loader, it now refuses to
move on wi
ntfs: validate resident attribute lists and harden the validator
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: validate resident attribute lists and harden the validator
A base inode's $ATTRIBUTE_LIST is sanity-checked by load_attribute_list()
only on the non-resident path; ntfs_read_locked_inode() copies a *resident*
attribute list into ni->attr_list with a plain memcpy() and no validation
at all. Every subsequent walk of ni->attr_list --
ntfs_external_attr_find(), ntfs_inode_attach_all_extents() and
ntfs_attrlist_need() -- then trusts the entries are well-formed and reads

ntfs: bound the look-ahead attribute-list entry in ntfs_external_attr_find()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: bound the look-ahead attribute-list entry in ntfs_external_attr_find()
When resolving an attribute lookup with a non-zero @lowest_vcn,
ntfs_external_attr_find() peeks at the next $ATTRIBUTE_LIST entry to
decide whether to keep searching, but bounds that not-yet-validated
entry only with "(u8 *)next_al_entry + 6 < al_end" (which proves just
bytes 0..6 are in range) and "(u8 *)next_al_entry + length <= al_end"
with an attacker-controlled, non-8-aligned length. It then reads
next_al_entry->lowest_vcn (an __le64 at offset 8) and the name at
next_al_entry->name_offset, bot
ntfs: fix u16 truncation of restart-area length check
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: fix u16 truncation of restart-area length check
ntfs_check_restart_area() validates that the $LogFile restart area and
its trailing log client record array fit within the system page size:
u16 ra_ofs, ra_len, ca_ofs;
...
ra_len = ca_ofs + le16_to_cpu(ra->log_clients) *
sizeof(struct log_client_record);
if (ra_ofs + ra_len > le32_to_cpu(rp->system_page_size) || ...)
return false;
ra_len is u16, but the right-hand side is computed in size_t
(sizeof(struct log_client_record) == 160). Both ca_ofs an
perf sched: Fix register_pid() overflow, strcpy, and BUG_ON
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf sched: Fix register_pid() overflow, strcpy, and BUG_ON
register_pid() has several issues when processing untrusted perf.data:
1. Integer overflow: (pid + 1) * sizeof(struct task_desc *) can wrap
to a small value on 32-bit systems when pid is large (e.g.
0x40000000), causing realloc to return a tiny buffer followed by
out-of-bounds writes in the initialization loop.
2. Heap buffer overflow: strcpy(task->comm, comm) copies the
untrusted comm string into a fixed 20-byte COMM_LEN buffer with
no length check.
3. BUG_ON on allocation failure: perf.data is u
perf tools: Use perf_env__get_cpu_topology() in machine__resolve()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf tools: Use perf_env__get_cpu_topology() in machine__resolve()
machine__resolve() accesses env->cpu[al->cpu].socket_id after checking
al->cpu >= 0 and env->cpu != NULL, but without validating al->cpu
against env->nr_cpus_avail. Since al->cpu comes from the untrusted
perf.data sample, a crafted file with a large CPU index causes an
out-of-bounds heap read.
Use perf_env__get_cpu_topology() which validates both NULL and bounds.
Also bounds-check al->cpu before the cast to struct perf_cpu (int16_t):
without this, values like 65536 silently truncate to 0, bypassing the
acc
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Disable xfrm_decode_session hook attachment
BPF LSM programs can currently attach to xfrm_decode_session(). That
hook may return an error, but security_skb_classify_flow() calls it
from a void path and triggers BUG_ON() if an error is returned.
Disable BPF attachment to the hook to prevent a BPF LSM program from
turning packet classification into a full panic.
netfilter: nf_conntrack_expect: use conntrack GC to reap expectations
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conntrack_expect: use conntrack GC to reap expectations
This patch replaces the timer API by GC worker approach for
expectations, as it already happened in many other subsystems.
Use the existing conntrack GC worker to iterate over the local list of
expectations in the master conntrack to reap expired expectations.
Check IPS_HELPER_BIT to run GC for expectations, set it on for nft_ct
expectation which nevers sets it. Hold the expectation spinlock while
iterating over the master conntrack expectation list to synchronize with
nf_ct_remove_expectations(). This a
net/mlx5: LAG, MPESW, Fix missing complete() on devcom error
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: LAG, MPESW, Fix missing complete() on devcom error
mlx5_mpesw_work() returned without calling complete() when
mlx5_lag_get_devcom_comp() returned NULL. A caller that queued the
work and waited on mpesww->comp would block indefinitely.
Funnel the early-return path through a new "complete" label so the
waiter is always woken.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

sco_sock_timeout() runs asynchronously and lock_sock(sk). If the socket
is closing while the timer is running, it holds the same lock
(lock_sock(sk)) twice, leading to a deadlock.

KVM: arm64: nv: Inject SEA if kvm_translate_vncr() can't resolve PFN
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: nv: Inject SEA if kvm_translate_vncr() can't resolve PFN
kvm_handle_vncr_abort() assumes that s1_walk_result conveys an abort
when kvm_translate_vncr() returns -EFAULT. This is not always the case
as it's possible to encounter 'late' failures on the output of S1
translation, e.g. a GFN outside of the memslots.
Fix it by preparing an external abort before returning from
kvm_translate_vncr(). Get rid of the BUG_ON() in the fault injection
path while at it.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: xt_nat: reject unsupported target families
xt_nat SNAT and DNAT target handlers assume IP-family conntrack state
is present and can dereference a NULL pointer when instantiated from an
unsupported family through nft_compat. A bridge-family compat rule can
therefore trigger a NULL-dereference in nf_nat_setup_info().
Reject non-IP families in xt_nat_checkentry() so unsupported targets
cannot be installed. Keep NFPROTO_INET allowed for valid inet NAT
compat users and leave the runtime fast path unchanged.

tools/power/x86/intel-speed-select: Harden daemon pidfile open
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tools/power/x86/intel-speed-select: Harden daemon pidfile open
Avoid symlink-based pidfile clobbering by opening the pidfile with
O_NOFOLLOW and validating it with fstat() before locking/writing.
The daemon currently uses a fixed pidfile path under /tmp. A local
unprivileged user can pre-create a symlink at that path and cause a
root-run daemon instance to write into an attacker-chosen file.
cxl: Fix CXL_HEADERLOG_SIZE to match RAS Capability size
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cxl: Fix CXL_HEADERLOG_SIZE to match RAS Capability size
The CXL r4.0 8.2.4.17.7 RAS Capability Structure has total length 0x58
bytes (CXL_RAS_CAPABILITY_LENGTH); the Header Log occupies the trailing
64 bytes at offset 0x18. CXL_HEADERLOG_SIZE was defined as SZ_512,
eight times the actual on-device size.
header_log_copy() reads CXL_HEADERLOG_SIZE_U32 (128) dwords from the
RAS capability iomap, overrunning the 88-byte mapping by 448 bytes.
The cxl_aer_uncorrectable_error trace event memcpy()s CXL_HEADERLOG_SIZE
(512) bytes from its source. For the CPER caller the source i
