| The ARM PL011 UART driver in drivers/serial/uart_pl011.c fails to acknowledge receive error interrupts. On the PL011, the framing, parity, break, and overrun error interrupts (PL011_IMSC_ERROR_MASK) are cleared only by writing the interrupt-clear register UARTICR; reading the data register clears the RX interrupt and the per-byte RSR status but not the error interrupt status in MIS. The interrupt service routine pl011_isr() acknowledged only the CTS modem-status interrupt and never wrote icr for the error bits, so an asserted error interrupt remains pending after the ISR returns.
When an application enables error-interrupt reporting via the public uart_irq_err_enable() API, an attacker who controls the serial peer can deterministically assert these error bits by injecting line errors on the RX line — a baud/stop-bit mismatch or mid-character break (framing/break error), a flipped parity bit (parity error), or FIFO flooding (overrun error). Because the error interrupt is never cleared, the interrupt line stays asserted and the CPU re-enters pl011_isr() immediately and indefinitely, producing an interrupt-storm livelock from which the core makes no forward progress.
The impact is an availability-only denial of service (permanent hang), reachable from an external or removable UART peer. Exploitation is gated by configuration: the error interrupt is off by default and no in-tree subsystem enables it, so only applications that explicitly call uart_irq_err_enable() on a PL011-based, interrupt-driven port are affected. The fix makes pl011_isr() acknowledge the pending error bits via uart->icr, breaking the loop, and additionally clears the latched RSR status in pl011_err_check(). |

pds_core: fix error handling in pdsc_devcmd_wait
Fix two cases where pdsc_devcmd_wait() returns stale success from
the completion register instead of an error:
1. FW crash: If firmware stops running, the wait loop breaks early with
running=false. The condition "if ((!done || timeout) && running)" is
false, so error handling is bypassed and stale status is returned.
Check !running first and return -ENXIO.
2. Timeout: If a command times out, err is set to -ETIMEDOUT but then
overwritten by pdsc_err_to_errno(status) which reads stale status.
Return -ETIMEDOUT immediately after cleaning up.
Both errors now propagate to pdsc_devcmd_locked() which queues
health_work for recovery. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu: Handle unmap error when iommu_debug is enabled
Sashiko noticed a latent bug where the map error flow called iommu_unmap()
which calls iommu_debug_unmap_begin()/iommu_debug_unmap_end() however
since this is an error path the map flow never actually established the
original iommu_debug_map() it will malfunction.
Lift the unmap error handling into iommu_map_nosync() and reorder it so
the trace_map()/iommu_debug_map() records the partial mapping and then
immediately unmaps it. This avoid creating the unbalanced tracking and
provides saner tracing instead of a unmap unmatched to any map. |
| IBM i 7.6, 7.5, 7.4, and 7.3 could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service due to an infinite loop. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md/raid1,raid10: fix error-path detection with md_cloned_bio()
Detect the error path using md_cloned_bio() instead of relying
on r1_bio in raid1 or r10_bio->read_slot in raid10, which may be
NULL or -1 after splitting and resubmitting a failed bio.
As a result, the error path may not be recognized and memory
allocations can incorrectly use GFP_NOIO instead of
(GFP_NOIO | __GFP_HIGH), which can lead to a deadlock under
memory pressure. |
| A flow has been identified into dnssec.c library, causing an infinite loop to dnsmasq service. An attacker who controls any DNSSEC-signed zone can hang the dnsmasq process with a single crafted response, killing all DNS resolution for its clients. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md/raid1,raid10: fix deadlock in read error recovery path
raid1d and raid10d may resubmit a split md cloned bio while handling
a read error. In this case, resubmitting the bio can lead to a deadlock
if the array is suspended before md_handle_request() acquires an
active_io reference via percpu_ref_tryget_live().
Since the cloned bio already holds an active_io reference,
trying to acquire another reference via percpu_ref_tryget_live()
can lead to a deadlock while the array is suspended.
Fix this by using percpu_ref_get() for md cloned bios. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix NMI/tracepoint re-entry deadlock on lru locks
NMI and tracepoint BPF programs can re-enter the per-CPU or global
LRU lock that bpf_lru_pop_free()/push_free() already hold on the
same CPU, AA-deadlocking. Lockdep reports "inconsistent
{INITIAL USE} -> {IN-NMI}" on &l->lock (syzbot c69a0a2c816716f1e0d5)
and "possible recursive locking detected" on &loc_l->lock (syzbot
18b26edb69b2e19f3b33).
Prior trylock and rqspinlock based fixes (see links) were nacked
because compromised on reliability.
This patch converts every LRU lock site to rqspinlock_t and adds a
recovery path for some failure windows to avoid node leaks.
Failure recovery:
- *_pop_free top-level: return NULL; prealloc_lru_pop() already
treats that as no-free-element (-ENOMEM).
- Cross-CPU steal: skip the victim's locked loc_l, try next CPU.
- Post-steal local lock fail: publish stolen node to lockless
per-CPU free_llist; next pop on this CPU picks it up.
- push_free fail: mark node pending_free=1. __local_list_flush(),
__local_list_pop_pending() reclaim the node from pending_list.
__bpf_lru_list_shrink_inactive() reclaims the node from inactive
list. Nodes from active list are reclaimed by __bpf_lru_list_shrink()
or after __bpf_lru_list_rotate_active() demotes it to the inactive. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware_loader: Fix recursive lock in device_cache_fw_images()
A recursive locking deadlock can occur in the firmware loader's power
management notification handler.
During system suspend or hibernation preparation, fw_pm_notify() calls
device_cache_fw_images(). This function acquires fw_lock to set the
firmware cache state to FW_LOADER_START_CACHE and then iterates over all
devices using dpm_for_each_dev() while still holding the lock.
For each device, dev_cache_fw_image() schedules asynchronous work to cache
the firmware. If memory allocation for the async work entry fails (e.g., in
out-of-memory conditions), async_schedule_node_domain() falls back to
executing the work function synchronously in the current thread.
The synchronous execution path (__async_dev_cache_fw_image() ->
cache_firmware() -> request_firmware() -> assign_fw()) attempts to acquire
fw_lock again. Since the current thread already holds fw_lock, this results
in a recursive locking deadlock.
Fix this by releasing fw_lock immediately after updating the cache state
and before calling dpm_for_each_dev(). The lock is only needed to protect
the state update. Concurrent firmware requests will correctly see the
FW_LOADER_START_CACHE state and use the piggyback mechanism, which is
independently protected by its own fwc->name_lock. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: avoid self-deadlock during inode eviction
An attribute-list update performed while allocating clusters can drop the
last reference to the temporary attribute inode. Evicting that inode
drops its reference to the base inode and can invoke ntfs_drop_big_inode()
for the base inode from within the base inode's own writeback path.
If the base inode is unlinked, ntfs_drop_big_inode() calls
truncate_setsize(), which waits for the inode's folio writeback to
complete. The same writeback worker is responsible for completing that
writeback, so it waits for itself indefinitely.
Prevent this self-deadlock by grabbing a reference to the base inode at the
beginning of ntfs_writepages() and releasing it at the end of the function.
This defers eviction until all bios have been submitted, allowing the wait
for folio writeback to complete safely. |

fs/proc/task_mmu: fix hugetlb self-deadlock in pagemap_scan_pte_hole()
A PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl requesting PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING on a hugetlb VMA hangs
the calling thread, unkillably, as soon as the scan reaches an unpopulated
part of the range:
do_pagemap_scan()
walk_page_range()
walk_hugetlb_range()
hugetlb_vma_lock_read() # take the vma lock for read ...
pagemap_scan_pte_hole() # ... ->pte_hole() for a hole
uffd_wp_range()
change_protection()
hugetlb_change_protection()
hugetlb_vma_lock_write() # ... and block taking it for write
walk_hugetlb_range() holds the hugetlb vma lock for read across the whole
walk. A present entry goes to ->hugetlb_entry(); an unpopulated one goes
to ->pte_hole(), i.e. pagemap_scan_pte_hole(). To write-protect the hole
that handler calls uffd_wp_range(), which on a hugetlb VMA reaches
hugetlb_change_protection() and takes the same vma lock for write. The
thread then blocks in down_write() waiting for the read lock it is itself
holding.
The populated path avoids this: pagemap_scan_hugetlb_entry()
write-protects the entry inline under the page-table lock and never enters
hugetlb_change_protection().
Do the same for holes. Fault in the page table and install the uffd-wp
marker directly with make_uffd_wp_huge_pte() under the page-table lock,
rather than routing through uffd_wp_range(). That is the same sequence
hugetlb_change_protection() runs for an unpopulated entry, minus the vma
write lock -- which is safe to skip because PMD sharing is disabled on
uffd-wp VMAs (hugetlb_unshare_all_pmds() runs at registration), leaving
nothing for that lock to serialise against. |

drm/xe/guc: Hold device ref until queue teardown completes
GuC exec queue destruction can run asynchronously. If the final device
put happens from a destroy worker, drmm cleanup can end up draining
the same workqueue and deadlock.
Hold a drm_device reference for the queue lifetime and drop it after
queue teardown completes. This keeps drmm cleanup from running while
async destroy work is still pending.
Move GuC destroy work to a module-lifetime Xe workqueue and flush it
on PCI remove so hot-unbind/rebind still waits for pending destroy work.
With queue-held device refs, guc_submit_sw_fini() cannot run with live
GuC IDs. Replace the fini wait with an assertion and remove the unused
fini_wq.
v2:
- Rebase
v3:
- Switch to queue-lifetime drm_dev_get()/drm_dev_put() model. (Matt)
- Queue async teardown on system_dfl_wq instead of xe->destroy_wq. (Matt)
- Drop separate deferred drm_dev_put worker.
- Remove stale drain_workqueue(xe->destroy_wq) from guc_submit_sw_fini().
v4:
- Replace the guc_submit_sw_fini() wait with an assertion and remove
the now-unused fini_wq. (sashiko)
v5:
- Move destroy work to a module-lifetime Xe workqueue instead of
system_dfl_wq. (Matt)
- Flush the module-lifetime destroy workqueue during PCI remove to
preserve the old device-remove wait semantics.
v6:
- Keep SVM pagemap destroy work on the per-device destroy_wq to avoid
letting it outlive the xe_device/drm_device. (Sashiko)
- Use WQ_MEM_RECLAIM for xe->destroy_wq because SVM pagemap destroy work
can be queued from the reclaim path.
v7:
- Drop the per-device xe->destroy_wq and use the module-level destroy WQ
for SVM pagemap destroy as well. (Matt)
- Rename xe_exec_queue_destroy_wq_*() helpers to xe_destroy_wq_*()
helpers because the WQ is no longer exec-queue specific. (Matt)
v8:
- Rebase.
v9:
- Keep SVM pagemap destroy work on the per-device WQ_MEM_RECLAIM
destroy_wq because it can be queued from reclaim and embeds
the dev_pagemap used by devres teardown. (Sashiko)
- Keep the module-level destroy WQ GuC-only and drop WQ_MEM_RECLAIM
from it.
- Update the module-WQ kdoc to document the GuC/SVM split.
v10:
- Keep xe->destroy_wq per-cpu while adding WQ_MEM_RECLAIM to fix the
workqueue allocation warning.
v11:
- Drop the SVM pagemap destroy comment as it was revision-specific.
(Thomas)
v12:
- Rebase.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
misc: nsm: only unlock nsm_dev on post-lock error paths
nsm_dev_ioctl() jumps to the common out label even when the initial
copy_from_user() fails before nsm->lock has been taken. The error path
then blindly unlocks a mutex that was never acquired.
This issue was found by our static analysis tool and then manually
reviewed against the current tree.
The grounded PoC kept the miscdevice ioctl entry and the pre-lock
copy_from_user(&raw, argp, _IOC_SIZE(cmd)) failure path by issuing
NSM_IOCTL_RAW with an invalid user pointer. That failure reaches the
shared out label before mutex_lock(&nsm->lock). Lockdep reported:
WARNING: bad unlock balance detected!
exploit/193 is trying to release lock (&global_nsm.lock) at:
nsm_dev_ioctl+0x5f/0xcf [vuln_msv]
but there are no more locks to release!
no locks held by exploit/193.
Return immediately on the pre-lock copy_from_user() failure and keep the
common unlock label for the post-lock paths only. |
