| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: dont report verifier bug for missing bpf_scc_visit on speculative path
Syzbot generated a program that triggers a verifier_bug() call in
maybe_exit_scc(). maybe_exit_scc() assumes that, when called for a
state with insn_idx in some SCC, there should be an instance of struct
bpf_scc_visit allocated for that SCC. Turns out the assumption does
not hold for speculative execution paths. See example in the next
patch.
maybe_scc_exit() is called from update_branch_counts() for states that
reach branch count of zero, meaning that path exploration for a
particular path is finished. Path exploration can finish in one of
three ways:
a. Verification error is found. In this case, update_branch_counts()
is called only for non-speculative paths.
b. Top level BPF_EXIT is reached. Such instructions are never a part of
an SCC, so compute_scc_callchain() in maybe_scc_exit() will return
false, and maybe_scc_exit() will return early.
c. A checkpoint is reached and matched. Checkpoints are created by
is_state_visited(), which calls maybe_enter_scc(), which allocates
bpf_scc_visit instances for checkpoints within SCCs.
Hence, for non-speculative symbolic execution paths, the assumption
still holds: if maybe_scc_exit() is called for a state within an SCC,
bpf_scc_visit instance must exist.
This patch removes the verifier_bug() call for speculative paths. |

ALSA: hda: cs35l41: Fix NULL pointer dereference in cs35l41_hda_read_acpi()
The acpi_get_first_physical_node() function can return NULL, in which
case the get_device() function also returns NULL, but this value is
then dereferenced without checking,so add a check to prevent a crash.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix crypto buffers in non-linear memory
The crypto API, through the scatterlist API, expects input buffers to be
in linear memory. We handle this with the cifs_sg_set_buf() helper
that converts vmalloc'd memory to their corresponding pages.
However, when we allocate our aead_request buffer (@creq in
smb2ops.c::crypt_message()), we do so with kvzalloc(), which possibly
puts aead_request->__ctx in vmalloc area.
AEAD algorithm then uses ->__ctx for its private/internal data and
operations, and uses sg_set_buf() for such data on a few places.
This works fine as long as @creq falls into kmalloc zone (small
requests) or vmalloc'd memory is still within linear range.
Tasks' stacks are vmalloc'd by default (CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y), so too
many tasks will increment the base stacks' addresses to a point where
virt_addr_valid(buf) will fail (BUG() in sg_set_buf()) when that
happens.
In practice: too many parallel reads and writes on an encrypted mount
will trigger this bug.
To fix this, always alloc @creq with kmalloc() instead.
Also drop the @sensitive_size variable/arguments since
kfree_sensitive() doesn't need it.

net: netpoll: initialize work queue before error checks
Prevent a kernel warning when netconsole setup fails on devices with
IFF_DISABLE_NETPOLL flag. The warning (at kernel/workqueue.c:4242 in
__flush_work) occurs because the cleanup path tries to cancel an
uninitialized work queue.
When __netpoll_setup() encounters a device with IFF_DISABLE_NETPOLL,
it fails early and calls skb_pool_flush() for cleanup. This function
calls cancel_work_sync(&np->refill_wq), but refill_wq hasn't been
initialized yet, triggering the warning.
Move INIT_WORK() to the beginning of __netpoll_setup(), ensuring the
work queue is properly initialized before any potential failure points.
This allows the cleanup path to safely cancel the work queue regardless
of where the setup fails. |

The code checks for invalid values, but doesn't set the error code. Return
-EINVAL in that case, instead of returning success. |

f2fs: fix to avoid NULL pointer dereference in f2fs_check_quota_consistency()

The direct reason is f2fs_check_quota_consistency() may suffer null-ptr-deref
issue in strcmp().
The bug can be reproduced w/ below scripts:
mkfs.f2fs -f /dev/vdb
mount -t f2fs -o usrquota /dev/vdb /mnt/f2fs
quotacheck -uc /mnt/f2fs/
umount /mnt/f2fs
mount -t f2fs -o usrjquota=aquota.user,jqfmt=vfsold /dev/vdb /mnt/f2fs
mount -t f2fs -o remount,usrjquota=,jqfmt=vfsold /dev/vdb /mnt/f2fs
umount /mnt/f2fs
So, before old_qname and new_qname comparison, we need to check whether
they are all valid pointers, fix it. |

media: iris: Fix memory leak by freeing untracked persist buffer
One internal buffer which is allocated only once per session was not

Add the necessary logic to explicitly free the untracked internal buffer

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: comp - Use same definition of context alloc and free ops
In commit 42d9f6c77479 ("crypto: acomp - Move scomp stream allocation
code into acomp"), the crypto_acomp_streams struct was made to rely on
having the alloc_ctx and free_ctx operations defined in the same order
as the scomp_alg struct. But in that same commit, the alloc_ctx and
free_ctx members of scomp_alg may be randomized by structure layout
randomization, since they are contained in a pure ops structure
(containing only function pointers). If the pointers within scomp_alg
are randomized, but those in crypto_acomp_streams are not, then
the order may no longer match. This fixes the problem by removing the
union from scomp_alg so that both crypto_acomp_streams and scomp_alg
will share the same definition of alloc_ctx and free_ctx, ensuring
they will always have the same layout. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: hisilicon/qm - set NULL to qm->debug.qm_diff_regs
When the initialization of qm->debug.acc_diff_reg fails,
the probe process does not exit. However, after qm->debug.qm_diff_regs is
freed, it is not set to NULL. This can lead to a double free when the
remove process attempts to free it again. Therefore, qm->debug.qm_diff_regs
should be set to NULL after it is freed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Fix WARN_ON in tracing_buffers_mmap_close for split VMAs
When a VMA is split (e.g., by partial munmap or MAP_FIXED), the kernel
calls vm_ops->close on each portion. For trace buffer mappings, this
results in ring_buffer_unmap() being called multiple times while
ring_buffer_map() was only called once.
This causes ring_buffer_unmap() to return -ENODEV on subsequent calls
because user_mapped is already 0, triggering a WARN_ON.
Trace buffer mappings cannot support partial mappings because the ring
buffer structure requires the complete buffer including the meta page.
Fix this by adding a may_split callback that returns -EINVAL to prevent
VMA splits entirely. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
comedi: c6xdigio: Fix invalid PNP driver unregistration
The Comedi low-level driver "c6xdigio" seems to be for a parallel port
connected device. When the Comedi core calls the driver's Comedi
"attach" handler `c6xdigio_attach()` to configure a Comedi to use this
driver, it tries to enable the parallel port PNP resources by
registering a PNP driver with `pnp_register_driver()`, but ignores the
return value. (The `struct pnp_driver` it uses has only the `name` and
`id_table` members filled in.) The driver's Comedi "detach" handler
`c6xdigio_detach()` unconditionally unregisters the PNP driver with
`pnp_unregister_driver()`.
It is possible for `c6xdigio_attach()` to return an error before it
calls `pnp_register_driver()` and it is possible for the call to
`pnp_register_driver()` to return an error (that is ignored). In both
cases, the driver should not be calling `pnp_unregister_driver()` as it
does in `c6xdigio_detach()`. (Note that `c6xdigio_detach()` will be
called by the Comedi core if `c6xdigio_attach()` returns an error, or if
the Comedi core decides to detach the Comedi device from the driver for
some other reason.)
The unconditional call to `pnp_unregister_driver()` without a previous
successful call to `pnp_register_driver()` will cause
`driver_unregister()` to issue a warning "Unexpected driver
unregister!". This was detected by Syzbot [1].
Also, the PNP driver registration and unregistration should be done at
module init and exit time, respectively, not when attaching or detaching
Comedi devices to the driver. (There might be more than one Comedi
device being attached to the driver, although that is unlikely.)
Change the driver to do the PNP driver registration at module init time,
and the unregistration at module exit time. Since `c6xdigio_detach()`
now only calls `comedi_legacy_detach()`, remove the function and change
the Comedi driver "detach" handler to `comedi_legacy_detach`.

comedi: pcl818: fix null-ptr-deref in pcl818_ai_cancel()
Syzbot identified an issue [1] in pcl818_ai_cancel(), which stems from
the fact that in case of early device detach via pcl818_detach(),
subdevice dev->read_subdev may not have initialized its pointer to
&struct comedi_async as intended. Thus, any such dereferencing of
&s->async->cmd will lead to general protection fault and kernel crash.
Mitigate this problem by removing a call to pcl818_ai_cancel() from
pcl818_detach() altogether. This way, if the subdevice setups its
support for async commands, everything async-related will be
handled via subdevice's own ->cancel() function in
comedi_device_detach_locked() even before pcl818_detach(). If no
support for asynchronous commands is provided, there is no need
to cancel anything either.

available bandwidth. It is concurrently accessed by fore200e_open(),
fore200e_close(), and fore200e_change_qos().
In fore200e_open(), the lock rate_mtx is correctly held when subtracting
vcc->qos.txtp.max_pcr from available_cell_rate to reserve bandwidth.
However, if the subsequent call to fore200e_activate_vcin() fails, the
function restores the reserved bandwidth by adding back to
available_cell_rate without holding the lock.
This introduces a race condition because available_cell_rate is a global
device resource shared across all VCCs. If the error path in
fore200e_open() executes concurrently with operations like
fore200e_close() or fore200e_change_qos() on other VCCs, a
read-modify-write race occurs.
Specifically, the error path reads the rate without the lock. If another
CPU acquires the lock and modifies the rate (e.g., releasing bandwidth in
fore200e_close()) between this read and the subsequent write, the error
path will overwrite the concurrent update with a stale value. This results
in incorrect bandwidth accounting. |

btrfs: remove BUG_ON()'s in add_new_free_space()
At add_new_free_space() we have these BUG_ON()'s that are there to deal
with any failure to add free space to the in memory free space cache.
Such failures are mostly -ENOMEM that should be very rare. However there's
no need to have these BUG_ON()'s, we can just return any error to the
caller and all callers and their upper call chain are already dealing with
errors.
So just make add_new_free_space() return any errors, while removing the
BUG_ON()'s, and returning the total amount of added free space to an
optional u64 pointer argument. |

ALSA: wavefront: Fix integer overflow in sample size validation
The wavefront_send_sample() function has an integer overflow issue
when validating sample size. The header->size field is u32 but gets
cast to int for comparison with dev->freemem
Fix by using unsigned comparison to avoid integer overflow. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: fix memory leak in __blkdev_issue_zero_pages
Move the fatal signal check before bio_alloc() to prevent a memory
leak when BLKDEV_ZERO_KILLABLE is set and a fatal signal is pending.
Previously, the bio was allocated before checking for a fatal signal.
If a signal was pending, the code would break out of the loop without
freeing or chaining the just-allocated bio, causing a memory leak.
This matches the pattern already used in __blkdev_issue_write_zeroes()
where the signal check precedes the allocation. |
