RISC-V: KVM: Synchronize hrtimer callback during teardown
The non-Sstc hrtimer callback clears next_set before its final uses of
the enclosing vCPU. If teardown observes next_set as false while the
callback is still running, kvm_riscv_vcpu_timer_cancel() skips
hrtimer_cancel() and kvm_destroy_vcpus() can free the vCPU before the
callback enters kvm_riscv_vcpu_set_interrupt().
A guest can arm the timer with SBI TIME and request shutdown with SBI
legacy shutdown or SRST. A VMM that honors KVM_EXIT_SYSTEM_EVENT and
destroys the VM supplies the teardown side of the race; no post-launch
host ioctl is needed to arm or request teardown.
On upstream master 62cc90241548, generic KASAN reported:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in do_raw_spin_lock
Write of size 4 at addr ff60000005e58898
kvm_riscv_vcpu_set_interrupt
kvm_riscv_vcpu_hrtimer_expired
__hrtimer_run_queues
hrtimer_interrupt
The object was allocated by KVM_CREATE_VCPU and freed concurrently by:
kvm_destroy_vcpus
kvm_arch_destroy_vm
kvm_destroy_vm
__fput
For deterministic validation, I added mdelay(1000) immediately after
the existing next_set = false assignment. This only widens the
existing post-clear callback window. A no-delay trace build naturally
reached the callback-after-teardown-start/before-deinit ordering in 12
of 200 runs, but 1,500 stock-kernel stress iterations did not produce a
KASAN report, so natural reproduction is timing-sensitive.
Always invoke hrtimer_cancel() for an initialized timer. Preserve the
existing -EINVAL result when the timer is no longer set, but only after
synchronizing with a running callback.
With this patch, hrtimer_cancel() blocked for the full widened callback
window before vCPU destruction. KASAN reported no error in 100
fixed-and-widened runs or 200 fix-only timing-sweep runs. |

KVM: arm64: Fix spurious warning for benign stage 2 teardown race
kvmtool was used to establish an L1 guest with 8 CPUs and 8 GiB of RAM, an
L2 guest with 4 CPUs and 4 GiB of RAM and an L3 guest with 2 CPUs and 2 GiB
of RAM, all of which was then exited.
Under memory pressure in the L0 host warnings were observed due to
migration triggered by compaction:
WARNING: arch/arm64/kvm/mmu.c:336 at __unmap_stage2_range+0x64/0x80,
CPU#5: kcompactd0/66
Which was, in turn, triggered by an MMU notifier for the host invalidation:

-> kvm_mmu_unmap_gfn_range()
-> kvm_unmap_gfn_range()
-> kvm_nested_s2_unmap()
-> kvm_stage2_unmap_range()
-> __unmap_stage2_range()
-> stage2_apply_range()
<- -EINVAL, triggering a WARN_ON()
Racing with L0's teardown of stage 2 page tables:
exit_mm()
-> mmput()
-> __mmput()
-> exit_mmap()
-> mmu_notifier_release()
-> ... -> kvm_mmu_notifier_release()

-> kvm_free_stage2_pgd()
-> [ acquire kvm->mmu_lock for write ]
-> mmu->pgt = NULL [ among other tasks ]
-> [ release kvm->mmu_lock for write ]
It turns out there is a benign race resulting in a spurious warning:
Thread A - notify: migration | Thread B - notify: release
-------------------------------|---------------------------------

__unmap_stage2_range() |
WARN_ON(-EINVAL) <--- entirely spurious - the race was handled
correctly.
Fix the spurious warning by updating stage2_apply_range() to no longer
treat concurrent PGT teardown on lock release as an error - whether the
walker is tearing down page tables or doing something else this is a
legitimate reason to abort the operation without error.
This keeps the warning in place for all other circumstances.
In practice only __unmap_stage2_range() actually does anything with the
error so this only impacts that. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
packet: use ubuf_info completion for TX_RING packets
tpacket_snd sends skbs with frags pointing into its ring slots. Slots
are released when skb->destructor is called.
A call to skb_orphan calls skb->destructor before the skb is freed.
This can cause the slot to be reused while still linked into the skb.
Switch to standard zerocopy completion (ubuf_info) so the slot is only
released once all references to the payload are freed or copied.
Restore skb->destructor to standard sock_wfree.
The ubuf_info completion callback can be called with a NULL skb, but
only from net_zcopy_put and related API, used by zerocopy implementations
that hold their own reference on the uarg, such as MSG_ZEROCOPY. This
uarg is only ever completed from skb_zcopy_clear, so skb is always set.
To prevent userspace from aliasing in-flight state on shared ring
slots, allocate tpacket_uarg per packet, rather than per slot. This
adds a small allocation to the transmit path. Use standard kmalloc to
allow backporting to stable kernels.
The uarg holds an sk_wmem_alloc reference, rather than an sk_refcnt
reference. packet_free_tx_ring waits on sk_wmem_alloc before freeing
the ring pages. Always allocate vec->deferred for tx_ring so page-backed
rings also wait on sk_wmem_alloc when skb_copy_ubufs drops page refs
before calling tpacket_ubuf_complete.
Drop the tx_ring.pg_vec test that tpacket_destruct_skb performed before
accessing the slot. The sk_wmem_alloc reference now guarantees that the
slot is valid. The test is also not sufficient by itself, as it reads
pg_vec without pg_vec_lock, so it can race with packet_set_ring.
As a result a slot is released when its payload is copied, which can
be before transmission (e.g., in skb_orphan_frags_rx). If copied
before skb_tx_timestamp() is called, no slot timestamp is recorded,
similar to when skb_orphan() was called early in the datapath before
this patch.
Revert the now unused previous skb_zcopy_.._nouarg infra.
Depends on commit 992cc9f94ca9 ("net/packet: defer vmalloc TX_RING
free until skbs finish"). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe/vm: nuke PTs only after unlinking contested VMAs
In xe_vm_close_and_put(), external-BO VMAs are queued on the contested
list for deferred destruction via xe_vma_destroy_unlocked(). However,
xe_vm_pt_destroy() was previously invoked before processing contested
VMAs, destroying vm->pt_root while those VMAs were still linked to their
respective buffer objects (vm_bo->list.gpuva).
If a concurrent thread evicts one of those shared buffer objects,
xe_bo_trigger_rebind() holding only bo->resv walks the BO's VMAs and, in
fault mode, calls xe_vm_invalidate_vma() -> xe_pt_zap_ptes(). Because
vm->pt_root[tile->id] is already NULL, dereferencing pt->level causes a
NULL ptr deref.
Fix this by deferring xe_vm_free_scratch() and xe_vm_pt_destroy() until
after all contested VMAs have been unlinked and destroyed.
User is reporting hitting a NULL ptr deref in xe_pt_zap_ptes(), which
could be explained by this race.

drm/nouveau: Fix gem reference leak in validate_init()
On the ttm_bo_reserve() failure and "vma not found" error paths, the
loop breaks without adding the looked-up object to any validate list,
so the reference taken by drm_gem_object_lookup() is never released;
validate_fini() only walks the spliced lists. Drop the reference
before breaking out on both paths. |

drm/nouveau: fix double-free in nvif_vmm_dtor
On failure, nouveau_cli_init() calls nouveau_cli_fini() to tear
the client down. Then, nouveau_drm_open() also enters into its
cleanup path and calls nouveau_cli_fini() AGAIN. nouveau_cli_fini()
calls nouveau_vmm_fini():
void
nouveau_vmm_fini(struct nouveau_vmm *vmm)
{
nouveau_svmm_fini(&vmm->svmm);
nvif_vmm_dtor(&vmm->vmm);
vmm->cli = NULL;
}
Inside nvif_vmm_dtor(), vmm->page is freed unconditionally:
void
nvif_vmm_dtor(struct nvif_vmm *vmm)
{
kfree(vmm->page);
nvif_object_dtor(&vmm->object);
}
vmm->page is never cleared after being freed, so the second call of
nvif_vmm_dtor() will cause a double-free.

drm/nouveau/dmem: pin VRAM for the whole registered range
Commit c32287471077 ("gpu/drm/nouveau: enable THP support for GPU memory
migration") grew the device-private region that
nouveau_dmem_chunk_alloc() registers from DMEM_CHUNK_SIZE to
DMEM_CHUNK_SIZE * NR_CHUNKS, but left the VRAM buffer object backing that
region at DMEM_CHUNK_SIZE.
nouveau_dmem_page_addr() returns chunk->bo->offset plus the page's offset
within the registered region, so every page past the first chunk resolves
to VRAM outside the buffer object.
Size the buffer object to the region it backs. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdkfd: fix use-after-free and multi-container gap in kfd_dev_mapping
kfd_dev_mapping caches the address_space of the first /dev/kfd opener
so that the GPU reset path can call unmap_mapping_range() to zap all
userspace mappings of doorbell and MMIO ranges. This design has two
bugs that both manifest under SRIOV with multiple containers:
1. Use-after-free / rwsem deadlock. The cached pointer refers to an
inode owned by the first opener's container. When that container
exits and its inode is released, kfd_dev_mapping becomes a dangling
pointer. A subsequent GPU reset dereferences it inside
unmap_mapping_range(), which takes i_mmap_rwsem on the freed inode,
causing a hard hang observable as an uninterruptible rwsem wait.
2. Multi-container gap. Only the first opener's address_space is cached;
VMAs created by later openers live in a different address_space and
are never reached by unmap_mapping_range(). After a GPU reset those
stale mappings keep doorbell and MMIO pages accessible to guest
userspace with no GPU behind them, risking PCIe transaction timeouts
and NMI panics.
Fix both bugs with the same approach used by DRM core (drm_drv.c):
create a private pseudo-filesystem at module init time and allocate one
anonymous inode from it. In kfd_open() redirect every opener's
file->f_mapping to that inode's address_space. The inode is
module-owned, lives exactly as long as the amdgpu module, and collects
VMAs from all openers in one address_space. A single
unmap_mapping_range() call in the reset path then correctly reaches
every container's mappings with no dangling pointer risk.
The hang manifests as an NMI backtrace on the GPU reset workqueue stuck
spinning in rwsem_down_read_slowpath() with a corrupted i_mmap_rwsem:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rds: ib: Clear the sg list when mapping an MR fails
rds_ib_map_frmr() stores the caller's scatterlist in the MR before DMA
mapping and registration can fail. On failure, __rds_rdma_map() unpins
the pages and frees the scatterlist, but rds_ib_free_frmr() can still
return the MR to the pool with the stale pointer set.
This leaves the pool with a dangling scatterlist and can lead to local
privilege escalation. KASAN detects the resulting use-after-free when the
MR is later torn down:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mctp: route: iterate socket tag list in mctp_lookup_prealloc_tag()
When a socket transmits a packet with MCTP_TAG_PREALLOC set,
mctp_lookup_prealloc_tag() iterates over the per-netns &mns->keys list
and matches netid, req_tag, peer_addr, and manual_alloc, without
checking whether tmp->sk == &msk->sk. This allows any MCTP socket in the
same network namespace to use and consume another socket's preallocated
tag.
Iterate the socket's own tag list (&msk->keys via sklist) instead of the
namespace-wide &mns->keys list in mctp_lookup_prealloc_tag(), ensuring
that only tags allocated by msk are matched.
Tested in QEMU against Linux 7.3.0-rc3 by allocating a manual tag
(0x18) on socket A via SIOCMCTPALLOCTAG for peer EID 9 and sending a
4-byte message with MCTP_TAG_PREALLOC from socket B in the same network
namespace. On the unfixed kernel, sendto(sock_b) using socket A's
preallocated tag succeeds (ret = 4); with this patch applied,
sendto(sock_b) fails with -ENOENT (errno = 2) while sendto(sock_a)
succeeds (ret = 4). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
llc: reserve device headroom for allocated frames
llc_alloc_frame() reserves link-layer headroom using the device type.
This is insufficient for stacked Ethernet devices such as VLAN devices,
where vlan_dev_hard_header() pushes a VLAN header before the lower
device's Ethernet header. An LLC response on such a device can
therefore underflow skb headroom in eth_header().
Use LL_RESERVED_SPACE() to account for the device's actual required
headroom while preserving the existing LLC device-type check. |

gpio: cdev: fix kernel stack leak to user-space in error path

stack contents. Make gpio_desc_to_lineinfo() return int so that the

the SRCU read lock too for good measure. |

KVM: arm64: nv: Delay freeing of shadow S2 structures until VM destruction
We free the shadow S2 structures from kvm_arch_flush_shadow_all(), which
is a Bad Idea(tm). Freeing the page tables is fair game (this is what
this callback is for), but freeing the container that could still be
referenced by another part of the system is not great.
Instead, grow separate destructors that gets called when we tear the VM
down for good. From there, we can nuke both the individual MMUs as well
as the global array that points to them, safe in the knowledge that the
vcpus themselves have been destroyed already. |

xfs: don't let hidden_space go negative in xfs_metafile_resv_init
LOLLM points out that if the amount of fdblocks that we can reserve for

then the hidden_space subtraction can underflow, causing
xfs_dec_fdblocks to subtract a huge amount of space. We never want the

dblocks_avail downwards.

wait_for_kprobe_optimizer_locked() reinitializes optimizer_completion,
asks the optimizer thread to flush and sleeps in wait_for_completion().
The thread drains the (un)optimizing lists, but calls complete() only
if completion_done() is true, i.e. if the completion is already done,
which never happens while someone waits. disarm_all_kprobes() and
kprobe_trace_self_tests_init() wait the same way.
Calling complete() unconditionally would not be enough: the waiter
drops kprobe_mutex while it sleeps, and nothing else serializes the
sysctl handler against the debugfs "enabled" file. A second flusher
that still finds the lists non-empty, e.g. because a disabled probe is
queued for unoptimizing, reinitializes the completion under the first:
sysctl write debugfs "enabled" write
unoptimize_all_kprobes()
wait_for_kprobe_optimizer_locked()
init_completion(c)
mutex_unlock(&kprobe_mutex)
wait_for_completion(c)

init_completion(c)
// c->wait is reset, the first
// waiter is off the queue
mutex_unlock(&kprobe_mutex)
wait_for_completion(c)
kprobe_optimizer()
complete(c)
// wakes the debugfs writer only
where c is &optimizer_completion. Lining up the two writes during an
optimizer pass loses the sysctl writer this way.
Replace the completion with a counter of optimizer passes, bumped at the
end of each pass and signalled with wake_up_var_locked(), both under
kprobe_mutex. A flusher samples the count and waits with
wait_var_event_mutex(), which drops kprobe_mutex only while sleeping, so
a new count means a whole pass ran in the meantime. Nothing is
reinitialized, so several flushers can sleep in the wait at once. |

ipv6: sr: enforce exact attribute length for SEG6_ATTR_DST
In seg6_genl_policy, SEG6_ATTR_DST is defined with .type = NLA_BINARY and
.len = sizeof(struct in6_addr). For NLA_BINARY, .len only enforces the
maximum payload length and permits shorter payloads (e.g., 0 bytes).
When seg6_genl_set_tunsrc() copies sizeof(struct in6_addr) bytes via
kmemdup(val, sizeof(*val), GFP_KERNEL), a short SEG6_ATTR_DST attribute
triggers a 16-byte out-of-bounds read past skb->tail into uninitialized
skb->head memory, which is stored in sdata->tun_src and leaked back to
userspace via SEG6_CMD_GET_TUNSRC.
Switch SEG6_ATTR_DST in seg6_genl_policy to
NLA_POLICY_EXACT_LEN(sizeof(struct in6_addr)) so that generic netlink
validation rejects any attribute whose length is not exactly
sizeof(struct in6_addr) with -ERANGE.
Tested in QEMU against Linux 7.3.0-rc3 by sending a SEG6_CMD_SET_TUNSRC
Generic Netlink message with a 0-byte SEG6_ATTR_DST attribute followed
by SEG6_CMD_GET_TUNSRC. On the unfixed kernel, SEG6_CMD_SET_TUNSRC
succeeds (err = 0) and SEG6_CMD_GET_TUNSRC leaks 16 bytes of
uninitialized kernel heap memory (tun_src =
836a61ecc4d25a1042a8d60411cfb378); with this patch applied,
SEG6_CMD_SET_TUNSRC is rejected by netlink policy validation with
-ERANGE (-34) and tun_src remains zeroed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipe: fix use-after-free when auditing a newly loaded policy
new_policy() audits the policy after ipe_new_policyfs_node() publishes it
and drops the new directory's inode lock. A concurrent delete can free
the policy while ipe_audit_policy_load() is still using it.
Audit the successful load under that lock.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: clean up failed cached directory opens
open_cached_dir() sends CREATE and QUERY_INFO as a compound request. If
the CREATE succeeds but a later command returns an error, the function
must retain the CREATE FID so common cleanup can issue SMB2_close(). It
also must not treat a response error as a valid CREATE.
Validate the CREATE response before using its fields, record the FIDs, and
mark the handle open before handling errors from later compound commands.
Move the -EREMCHG reconnect handling before response validation so a
missing response does not hide the reconnect request. Count the handle
when it is marked open; confirmed close responses decrement the counter,
while existing close retry behavior remains best effort on transport
failures. |
