| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: Stop looking for coalesced MMIO zones if the bus is destroyed
Abort the walk of coalesced MMIO zones if kvm_io_bus_unregister_dev()
fails to allocate memory for the new instance of the bus. If it can't
instantiate a new bus, unregister_dev() destroys all devices _except_ the
target device. But, it doesn't tell the caller that it obliterated the
bus and invoked the destructor for all devices that were on the bus. In
the coalesced MMIO case, this can result in a deleted list entry
dereference due to attempting to continue iterating on coalesced_zones
after future entries (in the walk) have been deleted.
Opportunistically add curly braces to the for-loop, which encompasses
many lines but sneaks by without braces due to the guts being a single
if statement. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mtd: require write permissions for locking and badblock ioctls
MEMLOCK, MEMUNLOCK and OTPLOCK modify protection bits. Thus require
write permission. Depending on the hardware MEMLOCK might even be
write-once, e.g. for SPI-NOR flashes with their WP# tied to GND. OTPLOCK
is always write-once.
MEMSETBADBLOCK modifies the bad block table. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Drivers: hv: vmbus: Use after free in __vmbus_open()
The "open_info" variable is added to the &vmbus_connection.chn_msg_list,
but the error handling frees "open_info" without removing it from the
list. This will result in a use after free. First remove it from the
list, and then free it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvmet-tcp: fix incorrect locking in state_change sk callback
We are not changing anything in the TCP connection state so
we should not take a write_lock but rather a read lock.
This caused a deadlock when running nvmet-tcp and nvme-tcp
on the same system, where state_change callbacks on the
host and on the controller side have causal relationship
and made lockdep report on this with blktests:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
udp: skip L4 aggregation for UDP tunnel packets
If NETIF_F_GRO_FRAGLIST or NETIF_F_GRO_UDP_FWD are enabled, and there
are UDP tunnels available in the system, udp_gro_receive() could end-up
doing L4 aggregation (either SKB_GSO_UDP_L4 or SKB_GSO_FRAGLIST) at
the outer UDP tunnel level for packets effectively carrying and UDP
tunnel header.
That could cause inner protocol corruption. If e.g. the relevant
packets carry a vxlan header, different vxlan ids will be ignored/
aggregated to the same GSO packet. Inner headers will be ignored, too,
so that e.g. TCP over vxlan push packets will be held in the GRO
engine till the next flush, etc.
Just skip the SKB_GSO_UDP_L4 and SKB_GSO_FRAGLIST code path if the
current packet could land in a UDP tunnel, and let udp_gro_receive()
do GRO via udp_sk(sk)->gro_receive.
The check implemented in this patch is broader than what is strictly
needed, as the existing UDP tunnel could be e.g. configured on top of
a different device: we could end-up skipping GRO at-all for some packets.
Anyhow, that is a very thin corner case and covering it will add quite
a bit of complexity.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/vt-d: Remove WO permissions on second-level paging entries
When the first level page table is used for IOVA translation, it only
supports Read-Only and Read-Write permissions. The Write-Only permission
is not supported as the PRESENT bit (implying Read permission) should
always set. When using second level, we still give separate permissions
that allows WriteOnly which seems inconsistent and awkward. We want to
have consistent behavior. After moving to 1st level, we don't want things
to work sometimes, and break if we use 2nd level for the same mappings.
Hence remove this configuration. |

ath10k: Fix a use after free in ath10k_htc_send_bundle
In ath10k_htc_send_bundle, the bundle_skb could be freed by
dev_kfree_skb_any(bundle_skb). But the bundle_skb is used later
by bundle_skb->len.
As skb_len = bundle_skb->len, my patch replaces bundle_skb->len to
skb_len after the bundle_skb was freed. |

net:emac/emac-mac: Fix a use after free in emac_mac_tx_buf_send
In emac_mac_tx_buf_send, it calls emac_tx_fill_tpd(..,skb,..).
If some error happens in emac_tx_fill_tpd(), the skb will be freed via
dev_kfree_skb(skb) in error branch of emac_tx_fill_tpd().
But the freed skb is still used via skb->len by netdev_sent_queue(,skb->len).
As i observed that emac_tx_fill_tpd() haven't modified the value of skb->len,
thus my patch assigns skb->len to 'len' before the possible free and
use 'len' instead of skb->len later. |

mm: memcontrol: slab: fix obtain a reference to a freeing memcg
Patch series "Use obj_cgroup APIs to charge kmem pages", v5.
Since Roman's series "The new cgroup slab memory controller" applied.
All slab objects are charged with the new APIs of obj_cgroup. The new
APIs introduce a struct obj_cgroup to charge slab objects. It prevents
long-living objects from pinning the original memory cgroup in the
memory. But there are still some corner objects (e.g. allocations
larger than order-1 page on SLUB) which are not charged with the new
APIs. Those objects (include the pages which are allocated from buddy
allocator directly) are charged as kmem pages which still hold a
reference to the memory cgroup.
E.g. We know that the kernel stack is charged as kmem pages because the
size of the kernel stack can be greater than 2 pages (e.g. 16KB on
x86_64 or arm64). If we create a thread (suppose the thread stack is
charged to memory cgroup A) and then move it from memory cgroup A to
memory cgroup B. Because the kernel stack of the thread hold a
reference to the memory cgroup A. The thread can pin the memory cgroup
A in the memory even if we remove the cgroup A. If we want to see this
scenario by using the following script. We can see that the system has
added 500 dying cgroups (This is not a real world issue, just a script
to show that the large kmallocs are charged as kmem pages which can pin
the memory cgroup in the memory).
#!/bin/bash
cat /proc/cgroups | grep memory
cd /sys/fs/cgroup/memory
echo 1 > memory.move_charge_at_immigrate
for i in range{1..500}
do
mkdir kmem_test
echo $$ > kmem_test/cgroup.procs
sleep 3600 &
echo $$ > cgroup.procs
echo `cat kmem_test/cgroup.procs` > cgroup.procs
rmdir kmem_test
done
cat /proc/cgroups | grep memory
This patchset aims to make those kmem pages to drop the reference to
memory cgroup by using the APIs of obj_cgroup. Finally, we can see that
the number of the dying cgroups will not increase if we run the above test
script.
This patch (of 7):
The rcu_read_lock/unlock only can guarantee that the memcg will not be
freed, but it cannot guarantee the success of css_get (which is in the
refill_stock when cached memcg changed) to memcg.
rcu_read_lock()
memcg = obj_cgroup_memcg(old)
__memcg_kmem_uncharge(memcg)
refill_stock(memcg)
if (stock->cached != memcg)
// css_get can change the ref counter from 0 back to 1.
css_get(&memcg->css)
rcu_read_unlock()
This fix is very like the commit:
eefbfa7fd678 ("mm: memcg/slab: fix use after free in obj_cgroup_charge")
Fix this by holding a reference to the memcg which is passed to the
__memcg_kmem_uncharge() before calling __memcg_kmem_uncharge(). |

xprtrdma: Fix cwnd update ordering
After a reconnect, the reply handler is opening the cwnd (and thus
enabling more RPC Calls to be sent) /before/ rpcrdma_post_recvs()
can post enough Receive WRs to receive their replies. This causes an
RNR and the new connection is lost immediately.
The race is most clearly exposed when KASAN and disconnect injection
are enabled. This slows down rpcrdma_rep_create() enough to allow
the send side to post a bunch of RPC Calls before the Receive
completion handler can invoke ib_post_recv(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: do asoc update earlier in sctp_sf_do_dupcook_a
There's a panic that occurs in a few of envs, the call trace is as below:
[] general protection fault, ... 0x29acd70f1000a: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI
[] RIP: 0010:sctp_ulpevent_notify_peer_addr_change+0x4b/0x1fa [sctp]

[] sctp_do_sm+0xc3/0x2a0 [sctp]
[] sctp_generate_timeout_event+0x81/0xf0 [sctp]
This is caused by a transport use-after-free issue. When processing a
duplicate COOKIE-ECHO chunk in sctp_sf_do_dupcook_a(), both COOKIE-ACK
and SHUTDOWN chunks are allocated with the transort from the new asoc.
However, later in the sideeffect machine, the old asoc is used to send
them out and old asoc's shutdown_last_sent_to is set to the transport
that SHUTDOWN chunk attached to in sctp_cmd_setup_t2(), which actually
belongs to the new asoc. After the new_asoc is freed and the old asoc
T2 timeout, the old asoc's shutdown_last_sent_to that is already freed
would be accessed in sctp_sf_t2_timer_expire().
Thanks Alexander and Jere for helping dig into this issue.
To fix it, this patch is to do the asoc update first, then allocate
the COOKIE-ACK and SHUTDOWN chunks with the 'updated' old asoc. This
would make more sense, as a chunk from an asoc shouldn't be sent out
with another asoc. We had fixed quite a few issues caused by this. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched: Fix out-of-bound access in uclamp
Util-clamp places tasks in different buckets based on their clamp values
for performance reasons. However, the size of buckets is currently
computed using a rounding division, which can lead to an off-by-one
error in some configurations.
For instance, with 20 buckets, the bucket size will be 1024/20=51. A
task with a clamp of 1024 will be mapped to bucket id 1024/51=20. Sadly,
correct indexes are in range [0,19], hence leading to an out of bound
memory access.
Clamp the bucket id to fix the issue. |

hfsplus: prevent corruption in shrinking truncate
I believe there are some issues introduced by commit 31651c607151
("hfsplus: avoid deadlock on file truncation")
HFS+ has extent records which always contains 8 extents. In case the
first extent record in catalog file gets full, new ones are allocated from
extents overflow file.
In case shrinking truncate happens to middle of an extent record which
locates in extents overflow file, the logic in hfsplus_file_truncate() was
changed so that call to hfs_brec_remove() is not guarded any more.
Right action would be just freeing the extents that exceed the new size
inside extent record by calling hfsplus_free_extents(), and then check if
the whole extent record should be removed. However since the guard
(blk_cnt > start) is now after the call to hfs_brec_remove(), this has
unfortunate effect that the last matching extent record is removed
unconditionally.
To reproduce this issue, create a file which has at least 10 extents, and
then perform shrinking truncate into middle of the last extent record, so
that the number of remaining extents is not under or divisible by 8. This
causes the last extent record (8 extents) to be removed totally instead of
truncating into middle of it. Thus this causes corruption, and lost data.
Fix for this is simply checking if the new truncated end is below the
start of this extent record, making it safe to remove the full extent
record. However call to hfs_brec_remove() can't be moved to it's previous
place since we're dropping ->tree_lock and it can cause a race condition
and the cached info being invalidated possibly corrupting the node data.
Another issue is related to this one. When entering into the block
(blk_cnt > start) we are not holding the ->tree_lock. We break out from
the loop not holding the lock, but hfs_find_exit() does unlock it. Not
sure if it's possible for someone else to take the lock under our feet,
but it can cause hard to debug errors and premature unlocking. Even if
there's no real risk of it, the locking should still always be kept in
balance. Thus taking the lock now just before the check. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: VMX: Disable preemption when probing user return MSRs
Disable preemption when probing a user return MSR via RDSMR/WRMSR. If
the MSR holds a different value per logical CPU, the WRMSR could corrupt
the host's value if KVM is preempted between the RDMSR and WRMSR, and
then rescheduled on a different CPU.
Opportunistically land the helper in common x86, SVM will use the helper
in a future commit. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix masking negation logic upon negative dst register
The negation logic for the case where the off_reg is sitting in the
dst register is not correct given then we cannot just invert the add
to a sub or vice versa. As a fix, perform the final bitwise and-op
unconditionally into AX from the off_reg, then move the pointer from
the src to dst and finally use AX as the source for the original
pointer arithmetic operation such that the inversion yields a correct
result. The single non-AX mov in between is possible given constant
blinding is retaining it as it's not an immediate based operation. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: qrtr: Avoid potential use after free in MHI send
It is possible that the MHI ul_callback will be invoked immediately
following the queueing of the skb for transmission, leading to the
callback decrementing the refcount of the associated sk and freeing the
skb.
As such the dereference of skb and the increment of the sk refcount must
happen before the skb is queued, to avoid the skb to be used after free
and potentially the sk to drop its last refcount.. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vhost-vdpa: fix vm_flags for virtqueue doorbell mapping
The virtqueue doorbell is usually implemented via registeres but we
don't provide the necessary vma->flags like VM_PFNMAP. This may cause
several issues e.g when userspace tries to map the doorbell via vhost
IOTLB, kernel may panic due to the page is not backed by page
structure. This patch fixes this by setting the necessary
vm_flags. With this patch, try to map doorbell via IOTLB will fail
with bad address. |
