| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dma-buf: dma-heap: don't publish fd before copy_to_user() succeeds
DMA_HEAP_IOCTL_ALLOC allocates a dma-buf and installs an fd into the
caller's fd table via dma_buf_fd() -> fd_install() before
dma_heap_ioctl() copies the result back to userspace. If the trailing
copy_to_user() fails, userspace never learns the fd number, but the
fd (and the underlying dma-buf reference) are already visible to
other threads in the same process and are leaked for the lifetime of
the process.
The obvious "close it on the failure path" fix is unsafe: once
fd_install() has run, another thread can already dup() the fd, send
it via SCM_RIGHTS, or close() it and let its number be reused, so a
subsequent close_fd() from the ioctl path can operate on an unrelated
file. This was pointed out by Christian König on v1 [1].
Restructure the allocation path so that fd_install() is the last,
unfailable step of a successful ioctl:
1. heap->ops->allocate() creates the dma_buf.
2. get_unused_fd_flags() reserves an fd number in the caller's
fd table without publishing it, so
no other thread can observe it.
3. copy_to_user() delivers the fd number to userspace;
on failure the fd is returned with
put_unused_fd() and the dma_buf
reference is dropped with
dma_buf_put(), leaving no user-
visible state behind.
4. dma_buf_fd_install() publishes the fd and emits the
trace_dma_buf_fd tracepoint -- from
here on the ioctl cannot fail.
A new dma_buf_fd_install() helper is introduced in dma-buf.c to wrap
fd_install() together with the DMA_BUF_TRACE() call, preserving the
export tracing that dma_buf_fd() provides. dma_heap_ioctl_allocate()
is refactored to return the struct dma_buf * directly (returning
ERR_PTR on failure) so the caller holds the dmabuf reference across
steps 3 and 4.
The failure at step 3 is easily reachable from userspace: pass a
struct dma_heap_allocation_data that lives in a page whose protection
is flipped to PROT_READ between copy_from_user() and copy_to_user()
(e.g. via mprotect()). Before this change each such ioctl leaks one
dmabuf fd; after it, the fd table is unchanged on failure and only
/dev/dma_heap/<name> remains open.
No UAPI or heap-driver interface change.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
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:
mm/huge_memory: transfer the pmd dirty bit to the folio on zap
zap_huge_pmd_folio() propagates the pmd young bit to the folio for the
file case, but not the dirty bit. The pte path does propagate it, in
zap_present_folio_ptes() and so does the pmd split path, in
__split_huge_pmd_locked().
For most file mappings the omission is harmless, because writing to a
shared file mapping goes through page_mkwrite(), which dirties the folio.
tmpfs is different: it has no page_mkwrite(), and vma_wants_writenotify()
is false for it, so a *read* fault on a MAP_SHARED tmpfs mapping installs
a writable pmd via do_read_fault(). do_read_fault() does not call
fault_dirty_shared_page(), so subsequent stores through that mapping set
only the hardware dirty bit in the pmd and never call folio_mark_dirty().
A shmem folio allocated by a fault is marked uptodate but not dirty (see
the clear: block in shmem_get_folio_gfp()), so PG_dirty is never set at
all.
Unmapping such a folio - munmap(), or exit_mmap() when the process dies -
then loses the only record that it was written, because zap_huge_pmd()
drops the pmd without transferring the dirty bit. Reclaim afterwards sees
a clean shmem folio: the whole swap-out block in shrink_folio_list() is
inside "if (folio_test_dirty(folio))", so pageout() is skipped and the
folio falls into __remove_mapping(). There, folio_is_file_lru() is false
for a swapbacked folio, so no shadow entry is created and
__filemap_remove_folio(folio, NULL) simply empties the i_pages slot. The
data is freed without ever being written to swap, and the next fault on
that index returns a freshly zeroed folio.
This is silent data loss for any process that keeps state in a MAP_SHARED
tmpfs segment across an unmap - for example a cache handed from one
process generation to the next through /dev/shm. It requires the folio to
be PMD-mapped, so it only shows up once shmem THP is enabled (which is
what we did in Meta fleet and started noticing crashes); with THP off the
pte path transfers the dirty bit correctly. It also only becomes visible
when swap is enabled, because with no swap device shmem folios (which are
on the anon LRU) are not scanned by reclaim at all, so the clean folio is
never dropped.
Reproduced on x86_64 with a tmpfs mounted huge=within_size: read-fault a
2MB-backed region, write a known pattern through the resulting mapping,
munmap, force reclaim of the cgroup, then re-map and read back. Without
this patch the region reads back as zeros and vmstat shows zswpout 0 - the
data was discarded rather than swapped. With this patch the region reads
back correctly and the pages are swapped out as expected. With
huge=never, or when the first touch is a write, the test passes either
way. |

nvme-fabrics: fix DHCHAP secret leak on parse failure
nvmf_parse_options() duplicates dhchap_secret and dhchap_ctrl_secret
with match_strdup() before validating the DHHC-1: representation.
If validation fails, the parser returns -EINVAL before the temporary
string in p is assigned to opts->dhchap_secret or
opts->dhchap_ctrl_secret. nvmf_create_ctrl() subsequently frees opts,
but nvmf_free_options() cannot release the unassigned temporary string.
Each rejected option therefore leaks one allocation.
This is easy to miss because valid secrets transfer ownership to opts
and are freed normally, while the malformed-secret path still returns
the expected -EINVAL to userspace.
With CONFIG_NVME_HOST_AUTH enabled, the leak is reachable before the
required-option checks and transport lookup. No NVMe-oF target or
working transport connection is required; for example, repeatedly
writing
dhchap_secret=BAD
or
dhchap_ctrl_secret=BAD
to /dev/nvme-fabrics deterministically takes the leaking parse path.
Free the temporary string before leaving both validation error paths.
Use kfree_sensitive() because the copied option may contain secret
material even when its representation is rejected, matching the
sensitive cleanup used for stored DHCHAP secrets. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvme: add missing SRCU grace period in error path
nvme_alloc_ns() error path at out_unlink_ns removes ns from the
namespace head siblings list with list_del_rcu(&ns->siblings) but
does not wait for SRCU readers before freeing the namespace struct.
Multipath code iterates the head->list under srcu_read_lock() in
nvme_find_path() and nvme_mpath_revalidate_paths(), so a concurrent
reader can still hold a reference to ns when kfree(ns) runs.
The normal removal path in nvme_ns_remove() correctly calls
synchronize_srcu(&ns->head->srcu) after list_del_rcu() to wait for
in-progress readers. Add the same grace period in the error path. |

powerpc/kexec_file: Prevent kexec range truncation
Sashiko AI review pointed out the following issue.
The __merge_memory_ranges() function incorrectly handles overlapping
memory ranges when merging them. Although sort_memory_ranges() sorts all
ranges by their start address in ascending order beforehand, the merge
logic remains defective in two ways:
1. It compares the current range's start against the previous element (i-1)
instead of the running target index (idx)
2. It unconditionally overwrites 'ranges[idx].end' with 'ranges[i].end'.
This logic flaw leads to critical memory truncation when a larger memory
range completely subsumes subsequent smaller ranges.
For example, consider a sorted input array with three ranges:
Range A (idx=0): [0x1000 - 0x9000]
Range B (i=1): [0x2000 - 0x5000] (completely inside Range A)
Range C (i=2): [0x6000 - 0x8000] (completely inside Range A)
1. When i=1 (Range B):
ranges[1].start (0x2000) <= ranges[0].end + 1 (0x9001) is TRUE.
The code executes: ranges[0].end = ranges[1].end, which erroneously
shrinks Range A's end from 0x9000 down to 0x5000.
2. When i=2 (Range C):
ranges[2].start (0x6000) <= ranges[1].end + 1 (0x5001) is FALSE.
The code falls into the else block, creating a broken new range.
As a result, valid memory fragments [0x5001 - 0x5fff] and [0x8001 - 0x9000]
are completely lost from the kexec exclude lists, potentially allowing
the crash kernel to overwrite active memory, causing data corruption
or crashes.
Fix this by ensuring the start of the current range is compared against the
end of the active merged range (idx), and use max() to safely prevent the
outer boundary from being truncated. |

s390/vfio-ap: Fix missing lock required to access list of ap_matrix_mdev objects
In order to traverse or add/remove ap_matrix_mdev objects in the
matrix_dev->mdev_list, the matrix_dev->guests_lock mutex must be held.
There are two functions that access the list without holding the mutex:
vfio_ap_mdev_probe function
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The vfio_ap_mdev_probe function uses the matrix_dev->mdevs_lock
mutex to guard the add of a newly created ap_matrix_mdev object to the
matrix_dev->mdev_list. This mutex does not protect list access; its purpose
is to guard against concurrent access to fields contained in an
ap_matrix_mdev object. This could lead to kernel memory corruption or
use-after-free if another mdev is created or removed concurrently.
The adding of an ap_matrix_mdev object to matrix_dev->mdev_list
is now guarded by the matrix_dev->guests_lock which is the correct
way to protect against concurrent mdev_list access.
Also removed the following two lines of code because the matrix_mdev is
allocated via vfio_alloc_device macro which uses kzalloc, so req_trigger
and cfg_chg_trigger are already zero-initialised when the struct is
allocated before the call to vfio_register_emulated_iommu_dev. This
prevents a window whereby these triggers are set to NULL after
the device is exposed to userspace.
matrix_mdev->req_trigger = NULL;
matrix_mdev->cfg_chg_trigger = NULL;
vfio_ap_mdev_for_queue function
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The status_show function that supports display of the status attribute of
the devices in /sys/bus/ap/devices calls the vfio_ap_mdev_for_queue
function which iterates the matrix_dev->mdev_list to find the object
representing the queue device whose status is to be displayed. In order to
traverse this list, the matrix_dev->guests_lock mutex must be held.
To fix this, the guests_lock mutex is taken prior to taking the
matrix_dev->mdevs_lock mutex in the status_show function. It is taken
there rather than the vfio_ap_mdev_for_queue function - where it is
needed - because it must be taken prior to the mdevs_lock mutex in order to
adhere to the proper locking order and prevent a lockdep splat; also
because the mdevs_lock is needed there to access fields within
the matrix_mdev object in that function.

ASoC: hdac_hda: Fix hlink refcount leak on component registration failure
hdac_hda_dev_probe() gets the HDA link with snd_hdac_ext_bus_link_get()
before registering the ASoC component. If component registration fails,
the function returns without dropping the link reference.
Always call snd_hdac_ext_bus_link_put() after the registration attempt so
the reference taken during probe is balanced on both success and failure. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: light: ltrf216a: fix runtime PM reference leak in error path
ltrf216a_get_lux() acquires a runtime PM reference by calling
ltrf216a_set_power_state(data, true). However, if
ltrf216a_read_data() fails, the function returns immediately without
dropping the reference.
This leaves the runtime PM usage count unbalanced, preventing the device
from autosuspending after a failed read.
Fix this by releasing the runtime PM reference before returning from the
error path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: nVM: Ensure INVVPID is emulated on the correct physical CPU
When emulating INVVPID, KVM executes INVVPID on the physical CPU using
vpid02 (instead of the L1 assigned VPID), after doing some validations
on the operands. However, it is possible that the physical CPU KVM
executes INVVPID on is different from the CPU L2 is running on.
For example, in the following scenario:
- L2 runs on CPU #1 and exits to L1 (vmx->nested.vmcs02.cpu=1)
- L1 migrates to CPU #2 and executes INVVPID
- KVM executes INVVPID on CPU #2
- L1 migrates back to CPU #1 and runs L2 (vmx->nested.vmcs02.cpu=1)
The TLB entries on CPU #1 are never invalidated, because INVVPID was
executed on CPU #2, and vmcs02 never ran on a different pCPU (i.e.
vmx_vcpu_load_vmcs() will *not* request KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH).
Ensure that INVVPID is being executed on the same pCPU that L2 last ran
on, and if not, fallback to clearing last_vpid=0 to trigger a full VPID
flush on the next nested VM-Enter (as KVM will detect L1 using a
different VPID for L2). If L2 ends up running on a different pCPU, KVM
will flush the TLB anyway through vmx_vcpu_load_vmcs(). |

KVM: s390: Zero initialize data structures for inject_pfault_token
__kvm_inject_pfault_token() only sets .type and .u.ext.ext_params2 of
the on-stack struct kvm_s390_irq but the full ext substructure is copied
into the cpu local variable on inject. ext_params and pad contain stale
stack values.
Interrupt delivery only uses ext_params2, so nothing leaks to the guest,
but a host user can use the migration ioctls to get to the data.
Fix by zero-initializing the irq struct.
Do the same for the inti data structure. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: s390: Fix memory corruption by not reinjecting CK machine checks
Channel-subsystem damage machine checks are for the host channel
subsystem. The guest channel subsystem is emulated in the userspace VMM.
There is no point in forwarding such machine checks into the guest.
This also simplifies the machine check reinjection and avoids kfree of a
stack variable as reported by sashiko. There might be still machine
checks that have the ck bit set with another bit (like instruction
damage), mask out the CK bit in s390_backup_mcck_info(), like the CP and
ED bits already are. |

KVM: arm64: vgic-v3: take an LPI reference in vgic_v3_save_pending_tables
vgic_v3_save_pending_tables() iterates dist->lpi_xa using xa_for_each()
and dereferences the returned struct vgic_irq in the loop body without
holding a reference on the LPI.
The xarray iterator only provides temporary RCU coverage while looking up
the current entry. That is not sufficient for this loop body, which reads
fields from struct vgic_irq and performs guest memory accesses before the
iteration completes.
A concurrent path can trigger this race: the irqfd cached injection path
(vgic_its_inject_cached_translation) obtains a transient LPI reference
via vgic_its_check_cache() without holding kvm->lock, vcpu->mutex,
config_lock, or its_lock. If guest ITS DISCARD then drops the cache and
ITE references under its_lock, the transient inject reference may become
the final one. When vgic_put_irq() drops it, the LPI is erased from
lpi_xa and freed via kfree_rcu(). Meanwhile, vgic_v3_save_pending_tables()
may still hold a stale pointer obtained from the xarray iterator and
dereference it after the RCU grace period completes.
Fix this by re-fetching each iterated LPI via vgic_get_irq(), which takes
a stable reference, and dropping it with vgic_put_irq() on all paths.
This matches the pattern already used by other lpi_xa iterators in the
vgic ITS code. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: vgic-its: Don't dereference a NULL collection on ITT save
MAPC with V=0 drops ite->collection but leaves the ITE on the device's
ITT list, and vgic_its_save_ite() dereferences it unconditionally. A
guest that issues MAPD, MAPTI and then MAPC(V=0) therefore oopses the
host when the VMM issues KVM_DEV_ARM_ITS_SAVE_TABLES to migrate it.
That sequence is UNPREDICTABLE per the architecture, but KVM already
handles the resulting state in the translate, MOVI and DISCARD paths.
Save a zeroed entry, which vgic_its_restore_ite() reads back as
invalid. Skipping the ITE instead would leave the ITT slot holding
whatever is in guest memory, and restore rejects an entry naming a
collection the restored collection table does not have. |

LoongArch: BPF: Refactor jump offset calculation in tail call
The old macro-based jmp_offset calculation derives the jump distance
from a stale prior-pass code stride, which can lead to wrong branch
offsets and soft lockups under extra JIT passes.
Fix this by calculating the offset directly on the absolute target:
"ctx->offset[insn + 1] - ctx->idx".
To avoid a false 16-bit range check abort during size estimation, add
a "ctx->image == NULL" guard to inject a safe dummy offset. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: platform: mtk-mdp3: fix NULL deref on failed SCP lookup
Add the missing sanity check after looking up the SCP to avoid
dereferencing a NULL-pointer in case its driver has not yet been bound. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: qla2xxx: Zero dport diagnostics buffer to avoid info leak
qla2x00_do_dport_diagnostics() allocates the qla_dport_diag response
buffer with kmalloc_obj() (non-zeroing) and, on success, copies the full
sizeof(*dd) back to user space via sg_copy_from_buffer(). The inbound
sg_copy_to_buffer() only fills as many bytes as the user request payload
provides, and qla26xx_dport_diagnostics() zeroes only dd->buf. The
options and unused[] fields are therefore copied out uninitialized,
leaking kernel heap contents to user space.
Allocate with kzalloc_obj(), matching qla2x00_do_dport_diagnostics_v2(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: validate MOVE_RANGE destination size
F2FS_IOC_MOVE_RANGE checks the source range, but not the destination end
before updating i_size. A source hole can expose this: __clone_blkaddrs()
skips NULL_ADDR entries and returns success, so the caller can still extend
the destination inode with unchecked pos_out + len.
Reject destination overflow and use inode_newsize_ok() before extending
the destination inode. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: limit recovery filename logging to stored length
F2FS stores recovery filenames as a length plus a fixed-size i_name
buffer. The buffer is not NUL-terminated, but recover_inode() and
recover_dentry() print it with %s.
For a 255-byte filename, recovery logging can read past i_name into the
following raw inode fields.
Print the name with a precision bounded by i_namelen and F2FS_NAME_LEN. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: fix dentry folio leak in find_in_level
find_in_level() gets a dentry folio with f2fs_find_data_folio() before
calling find_in_block(). If find_in_block() returns an error, the
function stores the error in res_folio and breaks out of the loop without
dropping the dentry folio.
This leaks the folio reference on the find_in_block() error path. Drop
the dentry folio before returning the error to the caller. |
