net: fix skb leak in __skb_tstamp_tx()
Commit 50749f2dd685 ("tcp/udp: Fix memleaks of sk and zerocopy skbs with
TX timestamp.") added a call to skb_orphan_frags_rx() to fix leaks with
zerocopy skbs. But it ended up adding a leak of its own. When
skb_orphan_frags_rx() fails, the function just returns, leaking the skb
it just cloned. Free it before returning.
This bug was discovered and resolved using Coverity Static Analysis
Security Testing (SAST) by Synopsys, Inc. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
w1: therm: Fix off-by-one buffer overflow in alarms_store
The sysfs buffer passed to alarms_store() is allocated with 'size + 1'
bytes and a NUL terminator is appended. However, the 'size' argument
does not account for this extra byte. The original code then allocated
'size' bytes and used strcpy() to copy 'buf', which always writes one
byte past the allocated buffer since strcpy() copies until the NUL
terminator at index 'size'.
Fix this by parsing the 'buf' parameter directly using simple_strtoll()
without allocating any intermediate memory or string copying. This
removes the overflow while simplifying the code. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arch_topology: Fix incorrect error check in topology_parse_cpu_capacity()
Fix incorrect use of PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO() in topology_parse_cpu_capacity()
which causes the code to proceed with NULL clock pointers. The current
logic uses !PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(cpu_clk) which evaluates to true for both
valid pointers and NULL, leading to potential NULL pointer dereference
in clk_get_rate().
Per include/linux/err.h documentation, PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(ptr) returns:
"The error code within @ptr if it is an error pointer; 0 otherwise."
This means PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO() returns 0 for both valid pointers AND NULL
pointers. Therefore !PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(cpu_clk) evaluates to true (proceed)
when cpu_clk is either valid or NULL, causing clk_get_rate(NULL) to be
called when of_clk_get() returns NULL.
Replace with !IS_ERR_OR_NULL(cpu_clk) which only proceeds for valid
pointers, preventing potential NULL pointer dereference in clk_get_rate(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: Move representor neigh cleanup to profile cleanup_tx
For IP tunnel encapsulation in ECMP (Equal-Cost Multipath) mode, as
the flow is duplicated to the peer eswitch, the related neighbour
information on the peer uplink representor is created as well.
In the cited commit, eswitch devcom unpair is moved to uplink unload
API, specifically the profile->cleanup_tx. If there is a encap rule
offloaded in ECMP mode, when one eswitch does unpair (because of
unloading the driver, for instance), and the peer rule from the peer
eswitch is going to be deleted, the use-after-free error is triggered
while accessing neigh info, as it is already cleaned up in uplink's
profile->disable, which is before its profile->cleanup_tx.
To fix this issue, move the neigh cleanup to profile's cleanup_tx
callback, and after mlx5e_cleanup_uplink_rep_tx is called. The neigh
init is moved to init_tx for symmeter.

After some investigation, I have found the following issue: unlike other
zswap backends, zsmalloc performs the LRU list update at the object
mapping time, rather than when the slot for the object is allocated.
This deviation was discussed and agreed upon during the review process
of the zsmalloc writeback patch series:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/Y3flcAXNxxrvy3ZH@cmpxchg.org/
Unfortunately, this introduces a subtle bug that occurs when there is a
concurrent store and reclaim, which interleave as follows:
zswap_frontswap_store() shrink_worker()
zs_malloc() zs_zpool_shrink()
spin_lock(&pool->lock) zs_reclaim_page()
zspage = find_get_zspage()
spin_unlock(&pool->lock)
spin_lock(&pool->lock)
zspage = list_first_entry(&pool->lru)

slab: Avoid race on slab->obj_exts in alloc_slab_obj_exts
If two competing threads enter alloc_slab_obj_exts() and one of them
fails to allocate the object extension vector, it might override the
valid slab->obj_exts allocated by the other thread with
OBJEXTS_ALLOC_FAIL. This will cause the thread that lost this race and
expects a valid pointer to dereference a NULL pointer later on.
Update slab->obj_exts atomically using cmpxchg() to avoid
slab->obj_exts overrides by racing threads.

There is a potential race condition in hidp_session_thread that may

then 'session' will be freed, causing kernel panic when hidp_idle_timeout

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].

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
security: Restrict CONFIG_ZERO_CALL_USED_REGS to gcc or clang > 15.0.6
A bad bug in clang's implementation of -fzero-call-used-regs can result
in NULL pointer dereferences (see the links above the check for more
information). Restrict CONFIG_CC_HAS_ZERO_CALL_USED_REGS to either a
supported GCC version or a clang newer than 15.0.6, which will catch
both a theoretical 15.0.7 and the upcoming 16.0.0, which will both have
the bug fixed. |

ntfs: set dummy blocksize to read boot_block when mounting
When mounting, sb->s_blocksize is used to read the boot_block without
being defined or validated. Set a dummy blocksize before attempting to
read the boot_block.
The issue can be triggered with the following syz reproducer:
mkdirat(0xffffffffffffff9c, &(0x7f0000000080)='./file1\x00', 0x0)
r4 = openat$nullb(0xffffffffffffff9c, &(0x7f0000000040), 0x121403, 0x0)
ioctl$FS_IOC_SETFLAGS(r4, 0x40081271, &(0x7f0000000980)=0x4000)
mount(&(0x7f0000000140)=@nullb, &(0x7f0000000040)='./cgroup\x00',
&(0x7f0000000000)='ntfs3\x00', 0x2208004, 0x0)
syz_clone(0x88200200, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0)
Here, the ioctl sets the bdev block size to 16384. During mount,
get_tree_bdev_flags() calls sb_set_blocksize(sb, block_size(bdev)),
but since block_size(bdev) > PAGE_SIZE, sb_set_blocksize() leaves
sb->s_blocksize at zero.
Later, ntfs_init_from_boot() attempts to read the boot_block while
sb->s_blocksize is still zero, which triggers the bug.

nvmem: core: Fix memleak in nvmem_register()
dev_set_name will alloc memory for nvmem->dev.kobj.name in
nvmem_register, when nvmem_validate_keepouts failed, nvmem's
memory will be freed and return, but nobody will free memory
for nvmem->dev.kobj.name, there will be memleak, so moving
nvmem_validate_keepouts() after device_register() and let
the device core deal with cleaning name in error cases. |

block: fix race between wbt_enable_default and IO submission
When wbt_enable_default() is moved out of queue freezing in elevator_change(),
it can cause the wbt inflight counter to become negative (-1), leading to hung
tasks in the writeback path. Tasks get stuck in wbt_wait() because the counter
is in an inconsistent state.
The issue occurs because wbt_enable_default() could race with IO submission,
allowing the counter to be decremented before proper initialization. This manifests
as:
rq_wait[0]:
inflight: -1
has_waiters: True
rwb_enabled() checks the state, which can be updated exactly between wbt_wait()
(rq_qos_throttle()) and wbt_track()(rq_qos_track()), then the inflight counter
will become negative.
And results in hung task warnings like:
task:kworker/u24:39 state:D stack:0 pid:14767
Call Trace:
rq_qos_wait+0xb4/0x150
wbt_wait+0xa9/0x100
__rq_qos_throttle+0x24/0x40
blk_mq_submit_bio+0x672/0x7b0
...
Fix this by:
1. Splitting wbt_enable_default() into:
- __wbt_enable_default(): Returns true if wbt_init() should be called
- wbt_enable_default(): Wrapper for existing callers (no init)
- wbt_init_enable_default(): New function that checks and inits WBT
2. Using wbt_init_enable_default() in blk_register_queue() to ensure
proper initialization during queue registration
3. Move wbt_init() out of wbt_enable_default() which is only for enabling
disabled wbt from bfq and iocost, and wbt_init() isn't needed. Then the
original lock warning can be avoided.
4. Removing the ELEVATOR_FLAG_ENABLE_WBT_ON_EXIT flag and its handling
code since it's no longer needed
This ensures WBT is properly initialized before any IO can be submitted,
preventing the counter from going negative. |

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:
# cat /proc/372265/task/372313/stack
[<0>] request_wait_answer+0x1fe/0x2a0 [fuse]
[<0>] __fuse_simple_request+0xd3/0x2b0 [fuse]
[<0>] fuse_do_getattr+0xfc/0x1f0 [fuse]
[<0>] fuse_file_read_iter+0xbe/0x1c0 [fuse]
[<0>] aio_read+0x130/0x1e0
[<0>] io_submit_one+0x542/0x860
[<0>] __x64_sys_io_submit+0x98/0x1a0
[<0>] do_syscall_64+0x37/0xf0
[<0>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x4b/0x53
But the /weird/ part is that the fuseblk server threads are waiting for
responses from itself:
# cat /proc/372210/task/372232/stack
[<0>] request_wait_answer+0x1fe/0x2a0 [fuse]
[<0>] __fuse_simple_request+0xd3/0x2b0 [fuse]
[<0>] fuse_file_put+0x9a/0xd0 [fuse]
[<0>] fuse_release+0x36/0x50 [fuse]
[<0>] __fput+0xec/0x2b0
[<0>] task_work_run+0x55/0x90
[<0>] syscall_exit_to_user_mode+0xe9/0x100
[<0>] do_syscall_64+0x43/0xf0
[<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. |

ubi: Fix UAF wear-leveling entry in eraseblk_count_seq_show()
Wear-leveling entry could be freed in error path, which may be accessed
again in eraseblk_count_seq_show(), for example:
__erase_worker eraseblk_count_seq_show
wl = ubi->lookuptbl[*block_number]
if (wl)
wl_entry_destroy
ubi->lookuptbl[e->pnum] = NULL
kmem_cache_free(ubi_wl_entry_slab, e)
erase_count = wl->ec // UAF!
Wear-leveling entry updating/accessing in ubi->lookuptbl should be
protected by ubi->wl_lock, fix it by adding ubi->wl_lock to serialize
wl entry accessing between wl_entry_destroy() and
eraseblk_count_seq_show().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: akcipher - default implementation for setting a private key
Changes from v1:
* removed the default implementation from set_pub_key: it is assumed that
an implementation must always have this callback defined as there are
no use case for an algorithm, which doesn't need a public key
Many akcipher implementations (like ECDSA) support only signature
verifications, so they don't have all callbacks defined.
Commit 78a0324f4a53 ("crypto: akcipher - default implementations for
request callbacks") introduced default callbacks for sign/verify
operations, which just return an error code.
However, these are not enough, because before calling sign the caller would
likely call set_priv_key first on the instantiated transform (as the
in-kernel testmgr does). This function does not have a default stub, so the
kernel crashes, when trying to set a private key on an akcipher, which
doesn't support signature generation.
I've noticed this, when trying to add a KAT vector for ECDSA signature to
the testmgr.
With this patch the testmgr returns an error in dmesg (as it should)
instead of crashing the kernel NULL ptr dereference. |
