| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: mcast: use rcu_assign_pointer() for __rcu list updates
Several places in net/ipv6/mcast.c update RCU-protected lists
(np->ipv6_mc_list, idev->mc_list, idev->mc_tomb) using direct pointer
assignments instead of rcu_assign_pointer():
1. In __ipv6_dev_mc_dec(), unlinking a group from idev->mc_list did:
*map = ma->next;
without rcu_assign_pointer() while concurrent readers traverse
idev->mc_list locklessly under rcu_read_lock().
2. In ipv6_sock_mc_drop() and __ipv6_sock_mc_close(), unlinking a group
from np->ipv6_mc_list directly assigned *lnk = mc_lst->next and
np->ipv6_mc_list = mc_lst->next without rcu_assign_pointer(), racing
with lockless readers in inet6_mc_check().
3. In __ipv6_sock_mc_join(), mc_lst->next was initialized to
np->ipv6_mc_list via raw assignment before publishing mc_lst.
4. In mld_del_delrec() and __ipv6_dev_mc_inc(), __rcu source pointers
passed into rcu_assign_pointer() lacked explicit dereference helpers.
Fix these by consistently using rcu_assign_pointer() along with
mc_dereference() / sock_dereference(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/xive: propagate IPI init errors to prevent use-after-free
When xive_init_ipis() fails (e.g. irq_domain_alloc_irqs() fails),
the error path frees the global xive_ipis array. However,
xive_smp_probe() previously ignored this failure and proceeded to
call xive_setup_cpu_ipi(), which dereferences the already-freed
xive_ipis pointer -- a use-after-free.
Now that xive_smp_probe() returns int (previous patch), propagate
the error from xive_init_ipis() and xive_setup_cpu_ipi() through
xive_smp_probe(). Check the return value in both pnv_smp_probe()
and pSeries_smp_probe() so that IPI setup is aborted cleanly on
failure, avoiding the use-after-free. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPI: bus: Introduce acpi_bus_get_primary_device()
The function used for obtaining the first "physical" device for which
the given ACPI one is the ACPI companion, acpi_get_first_physical_node(),
may return a stale device pointer (mostly in theory) because
acpi_unbind_one() may run as a whole after dropping the ACPI device's
physical_node_lock in acpi_get_first_physical_node() and before it
returns. The last reference to the "physical" device may be dropped
then before the pointer to it is returned to the caller.
If that happens and the acpi_get_first_physical_node() caller invokes
get_device() on the pointer obtained from it, which is done by the
majority of its callers, a use-after-free will occur.
To prepare for addressing this problem, introduce a new function for
getting the first "physical" device associated with the given ACPI one
(the "primary physical device") that will also reference count the
device in question before returning a pointer to it.
Make that new function and acpi_get_first_physical_node() share the
physical node list lookup code.
No intentional functional impact. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: convert nfsd_net boolean flags to unsigned long flags word
nfsd_net contains several boolean fields that are accessed from
concurrent contexts without serialization. In particular,
nfsd4_end_grace() guards its drain path with a plain bool:
if (nn->grace_ended)
return;
nn->grace_ended = true;
The read and the write are independent, and nothing in struct
nfsd_net serializes them. At least two contexts can reach this
code with no lock held:
laundromat path
laundry_wq kworker
nfs4_laundromat()
nfsd4_end_grace()
RECLAIM_COMPLETE path
nfsd compound kthread
nfsd4_reclaim_complete()
inc_reclaim_complete()
nfsd4_end_grace()
Both callers can observe grace_ended == false on different CPUs,
both store true, and both proceed into nfsd4_record_grace_done(),
which invokes the active client_tracking_ops->grace_done callback.
For tracking ops that drain reclaim_str_hashtbl (legacy_tracking_ops
via nfsd4_recdir_purge_old, and the cld v1+ ops via
nfsd4_cld_grace_done), grace_done calls nfs4_release_reclaim(),
which walks every bucket of reclaim_str_hashtbl with no lock and
calls nfs4_remove_reclaim_record() (list_del + kfree) on each
entry. Two concurrent walkers corrupt the list and double-free
every nfs4_client_reclaim. A concurrent nfsd4_find_reclaim_client()
iterating the same bucket reads through freed memory.
A third call site exists in nfs4_state_start_net() on the
skip_grace startup path, but it runs under nfsd_mutex before any
client has connected and before the laundromat's first delayed
work fires, so it cannot race with the two callers above.
Replace the scattered boolean fields in nfsd_net with a single
unsigned long flags word and an enum nfsd_net_flag for the bit
positions. The grace_ended race is fixed by using
test_and_set_bit(), which is atomic on all architectures. The
remaining flags (grace_end_forced, in_grace, somebody_reclaimed,
track_reclaim_completes, nfsd_net_up, lockd_up) are converted to
use test_bit/set_bit/clear_bit for consistency. This avoids
sub-word cmpxchg issues on architectures like Hexagon that only
support word-sized atomic operations. |

drm/amd/display: Fix dangling pointer in plane reset function
amdgpu_dm_plane_drm_plane_reset() frees the old state before allocating
a new one. If kzalloc() fails, the function returns without updating
the state pointer, leaving a dangling pointer to already freed memory.
Fix this by allocating the new state first. On allocation failure, the
old state remains untouched and the function safely returns.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
esp: do not unref managed frag pages in esp_ssg_unref()
esp_ssg_unref() releases the page references held on the source
scatterlist after the AEAD operation completes. It calls
skb_page_unref() on every frag page for an out-of-place transform
(req->src != req->dst), and in the error path of esp_output_tail()
(already_unref == true) on the request's own scatterlist.
This is wrong when the skb carries managed frags
(SKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS). Managed frags are owned by a zerocopy ubuf
and the skb does not hold a per-frag page reference; io_uring SEND_ZC
with a registered buffer attaches the bvec pages this way via
io_sg_from_iter(). The rest of the stack honours this invariant:
skb_release_data() skips the per-frag unref when SKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS
is set, and skb_zcopy_managed() is the guard used at the other unref
sites.
esp_ssg_unref() is missing that guard, so for a managed-frag skb it
drops a page reference the skb never acquired. This can underflow the
page reference count and free a page that is still in use.
Guard the function with skb_zcopy_managed() so both unref paths are
skipped for managed-frag skbs, matching skb_release_data(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/rvt: Return NULL after port allocation failure
rvt_alloc_device() deallocates the IB device when its port array cannot
be allocated but then returns the pointer to the released allocation.
Callers treat any non-NULL value as valid and dereference it, resulting
in a use-after-free.
Return NULL immediately after deallocation so callers can propagate the
allocation failure. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/resctrl: Fix UAF from worker threads when domains are removed
The mbm_handle_overflow() and cqm_handle_limbo() workers read event counters
and may sleep while doing so. They are scheduled via delayed_work embedded in
struct rdt_l3_mon_domain. Architecture allocates and frees these domains from
CPU hotplug callbacks under cpus_write_lock(), and the workers acquire
cpus_read_lock() to keep the domain alive across their access.
A use-after-free can occur when a worker is blocked waiting for
cpus_read_lock() while the hotplug core holds cpus_write_lock(): the
architecture frees the rdt_l3_mon_domain that contains the worker's
work_struct. When the worker unblocks, the container_of() it performs on the
embedded work pointer dereferences freed memory.
Drop cpus_read_lock() from the workers and instead drain pending and in-flight
work synchronously before the architecture can free the domain. Since
architecture offlines the domain under cpus_write_lock() after it has been
unlinked from the RCU list and a grace period has elapsed, no new work can be
scheduled. The cancel only needs to wait out existing work. Drop
rdtgroup_mutex during CPU offline around cancel_delayed_work_sync() so that
a worker waiting on the mutex can complete before re-pinning the work on
a different CPU.
When offlining a CPU the architecture may iterate over resources in any order.
For example, the MBA control domain may be offlined before or after
a corresponding L3 monitor domain. Ensure that resctrl fs cancels the workers
no matter what order the architecture offlines the domains. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Fix SCMI device destroy lifetimes
scmi_child_dev_find() drops the reference returned by
device_find_child() before returning the scmi_device pointer. A
concurrent unregister can then release the device while the destroy path
is still using the returned pointer.
Make the lookup helper return the device_find_child() reference and keep
it until scmi_device_destroy() has finished unregistering the child.
Also split device_unregister() in __scmi_device_destroy() so the SCMI bus
ID is not made reusable until after device_del() has removed the old
scmi_dev.N name from sysfs. This avoids a new SCMI device reusing the
same ID while the old device is still registered.
The final device release callback is also a possible cleanup path when
SCMI children are deleted by driver core recursion rather than
__scmi_device_destroy(). Release the SCMI bus ID from a common helper
used by destroy, register-failure and final-release paths, and clear
scmi_dev->id after freeing it so the final release cannot free the same
ID again. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinctrl: mediatek: use devm_gpiochip_add_data() for GPIO chip
The gpio_chip is allocated with device-managed memory but registered with
the non-managed gpiochip_add_data(). This was harmless while the drivers
were built-in, but once they can be built as modules and unbound/rmmod'd,
devm frees the gpio_chip's memory while it is still registered, causing a
use-after-free.
Register it with devm_gpiochip_add_data() so it shares the same
device-managed lifecycle, which also lets the manual gpiochip_remove()
error paths go away. |
| During an upload, curl mishandles HTTP/2 `RST_STREAM` received from the server
(with reason `HTTP_1_1_REQUIRED` or `REFUSED_STREAM`) leading to a use after
free of a `struct Curl_easy` object. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/tegra241-cmdqv: Don't fall back to a freed smmu after devm_krealloc()
__tegra241_cmdqv_probe() uses devm_krealloc() to grow @smmu into the larger
tegra241_cmdqv, which frees the original @smmu once it relocates. A failure
after that returned NULL, and the caller then dereferenced the freed @smmu
on its fallback path.
Return an int and take @smmu by reference instead, then update *smmu to the
reallocated pointer after devm_krealloc() succeeds, so the caller and its
fallback path both use the live @smmu rather than the freed original. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI: Fix UAF when probe runs concurrent to dyn ID removal
Dynamic IDs are only guaranteed to be valid when dynids.lock is held,
as remove_id_store() can free the node. Thus, make a copy in
pci_match_device(). Also, clarify that the id parameter is only valid
during probe. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/cxgb4: Fix dereg_skb leak and double free in write_tpt_entry()
When the device is in the fatal error state, write_tpt_entry() returns -EIO
before handing the caller's preallocated skb to the transmit path; its
allocation-failure returns do the same. c4iw_dereg_mr() ignores the error
and frees mhp, leaking mhp->dereg_skb. c4iw_get_dma_mr() instead frees the
skb a second time after dereg_mem() already consumed it, a double free.
Make write_tpt_entry() the sole owner of a non-NULL skb, freeing it on
every return preceding handoff to c4iw_ofld_send(): fatal error, tpt and
stag allocation failure. c4iw_ofld_send() consumes the skb on success and
error alike, so drop the redundant kfree_skb() in c4iw_get_dma_mr() after
dereg_mem(). |

had a pointer to the wcid in the STA.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mt76: cancel reset and rc work on device unregister
Both drivers cancelled dump_work on unregister but left reset_work and
rc_work to be flushed only by destroy_workqueue() in mt76_free_device(),
which runs after the hw is unregistered and the hardware stopped. A
reset_work that fires in that window calls ieee80211_restart_hw() and
re-arms mac_work on an unregistered hw, and rc_work touches station state
being torn down. Cancel both up front, alongside dump_work. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: core: do fallible allocations before the console can be registered
serial_core_add_one_port() allocates uport->tty_groups after
uart_configure_port(), which may register the console. If the allocation
fails, the driver unwinds the port while its console remains registered.
The earlier uport->name allocation has a related failure path that leaves
state->uart_port linked to a port being freed.
Failslab reproduced a NULL dereference in PL011 console output and a KASAN
use-after-free in i.MX console output after failed binds.
Allocate the name and tty_groups before linking the port and configuring
it. Reserve space for the optional driver attribute group because
config_port() may populate uport->attr_group during configuration. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: core: clear freed pointers on uart_register_driver() failure
uart_register_driver() leaves drv->state pointing to freed memory when
tty_alloc_driver() fails. If tty_register_driver() fails, drv->tty_driver
also retains a pointer after its reference is dropped.
Drivers that use drv->state as an "already registered" flag can then skip
registration on the next probe and pass the freed state to
uart_add_one_port().
This issue was found with failslab on QEMU's raspi1ap board by
failing registration and binding the PL011 port again.
Clear both pointers on their failure paths, as uart_unregister_driver()
already does. |
