| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
thermal: hwmon: Remove hwmon class device along with its parent
The current code creates one hwmon device per thermal zone type and that
device is registered under the first thermal zone of the given type.
That turns out to be problematic when the thermal zone holding the
hwmon device is removed.
For example, say that there are two ACPI thermal zones on a system
/sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/
/sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone1/
The current code registers a hwmon class device for thermal_zone0 only:
/sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/hwmon0/
because the type is "acpitz" for both of them, but it adds a sysfs
attribute that belongs to thermal_zone1 under it:
/sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/hwmon0/temp2_input
There is also
/sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/hwmon0/temp1_input
which belongs to thermal_zone0.
When thermal_zone0 is removed, say because the ACPI thermal driver is
unbound from the underlying platform device, thermal_remove_hwmon_sysfs()
skips the removal of hwmon0 because of the temp2_input attribute
belonging to thermal_zone1 which effectively prevents thermal_zone0
removal from making progress.
Address this by making thermal_remove_hwmon_sysfs() remove the entire
hwmon class device interface for the given thermal zone type when the
thermal zone device holding it is removed.
To prevent races with thermal_add_hwmon_sysfs() that may interfere
with this, carry out the entire addition and removal of hwmon sysfs
interfaces for thermal zones under thermal_hwmon_list_lock.
Also adjust the layout of the labels in thermal_add_hwmon_sysfs() to
the current kernel coding style to align with the new "unlock" label. |

coresight: etm4x: missing cscfg_csdev_disable_active_config() in perf enable
In the perf enable path, there are missing cases where
cscfg_csdev_disable_active_config() is not called:
- Branch broadcast is selected but not supported by the hardware
- etm4_enable_hw() fails
This can lead to a leak of config_desc->active_cnt.
Fix this by properly calling cscfg_csdev_disable_active_config()
in these error paths. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: fix integer overflow in MFT cluster validation
In ntfs_init_from_boot(), the boot sector's MFT cluster numbers are
validated against the volume size with:
if (mlcn * sct_per_clst >= sectors ||
mlcn2 * sct_per_clst >= sectors)
goto out;
mlcn and mlcn2 are u64 fields read directly from the boot sector.
sct_per_clst is bounded above by 4096 (true_sectors_per_clst() plus
the is_power_of_2() check below it), but the multiplication is done
in u64 and wraps when mlcn (or mlcn2) is large enough -- e.g. mlcn
near 2^62 with sct_per_clst == 4 wraps to 0, which compares below
any non-zero 'sectors', so the check is bypassed and the malformed
record is accepted.
The accepted mlcn is then used unchanged in
sbi->mft.lbo = mlcn << cluster_bits;
In practice the resulting reads fail at the block layer (sb_bread()
returns NULL via grow_buffers()'s check_mul_overflow() guard), so
today this manifests as mount failing in odd places rather than as
something more dangerous, but the validation step is still wrong
and there is no reason for callers to rely on the block layer to
catch a value that should never have been accepted in the first
place.
Use check_mul_overflow() to compute the two sector positions and
fail the mount if either multiplication wraps; this preserves the
existing semantics (mlcn * sct_per_clst >= sectors) instead of
switching to division (mlcn >= sectors / sct_per_clst), which
would tighten the check at edge cases where 'sectors' is not a
multiple of sct_per_clst. The check_*_overflow() style is the
one ntfs3 already uses for similar on-disk arithmetic in
fs/ntfs3/run.c. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
blk-iocost: clear delay state when freeing policy data
iocg_kick_delay() turns sufficiently large debt into an explicit
block-cgroup delay with blkcg_set_delay(), setting blkg->use_delay to
-1 and incrementing blkcg->congestion_count. Clearing it again depends
on iocg_kick_delay() running from the period timer, the waitq timer or
the issue path.
ioc_pd_free() removes the iocg from active_iocgs and cancels its waitq
timer, and no further bios can arrive, so once it has run nothing is
left which can reduce the debt and clear the delay. The blkcg stays
marked congested for the rest of its life.
blk_cgroup_congested() then returns true for every task in that cgroup
and its descendants: page_cache_sync_ra() cuts readahead to a single
page, page_cache_async_ra() skips it altogether, and
__folio_throttle_swaprate() takes swap_avail_lock and schedules a
throttle on anonymous folio allocation.
Clear it explicitly, after the list removal and the synchronous
hrtimer_cancel() so that neither timer processing nor an I/O path can
re-arm it. The free callback can also see policy data which was never
attached to a blkg, hence the pd->blkg check. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
apparmor: fix deadlock in complain-mode change_hat
The use of change_hat when in complain mode can cause a deadlock
when the hat doesn't exist and a new learning profile is created
for the missing profile. This is because change_hat() has taken
the lock to search the hat list and creating the new learning
profile needs to take the lock to add it to the list.
From the bug report:
Originally found in 7.0.0 in LTS ubuntu 26.04 with pam_apparmor + su
in complain mode set to change hats. Then verified in newest
available vanilla kernel I've compiled to see if still present:
7.2-rc7 vanilla -> affected
checked also some other kernels:
6.18.44 vanilla -> affected
6.12.95 with debian patches -> unaffected
On systems without bug (for example 6.12.95 debian) it just prints:
aa_change_hat rc=0
On systems with bug, the executable always hangs, prints nothing and
becomes unkillable. (And once stuck this way, it will cause any
further hat changes to also cause the changing process to get stuck)
Then in syslog you can find hint about cause:

To fix the issue, lift the locking out of the core of

that no longer takes the lock.

32e92764d6f8d ("apparmor: grab ns lock and refresh when looking up changehat child profiles")
- aa_get_profile_rcu() was replaced-by: aa_get_profile without the
accompanying rcu_dereference_protected()
- an extra aa_get_label(label) was introduced at the start of
change_hat() without an accompanying aa_put_label() causing a
reference count leak.
- a reference count leak was introduced in the label_is_stale(label)
case, where the newest profile would be leaked instead of the
label passed to the function.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vsock: don't check the listener's sk_err in vsock_accept()
Syzbot reported an issue which can be reproduced with these steps:
r0 = socket(AF_VSOCK, SOCK_STREAM, 0)
bind(r0, {VMADDR_CID_ANY, PORT})
connect(r0, {VMADDR_CID_LOCAL, PORT}) -> -1, EPROTO (self-connect)
listen(r0, backlog) -> 0
r1 = socket(AF_VSOCK, SOCK_STREAM, 0)
connect(r1, {VMADDR_CID_LOCAL, PORT}) -> 0
accept(r0) -> -1, EPROTO (stale sk_err)
Basically, it creates a socket (r0) and triggers a self-connect after
binding it. This self-connect fails with EPROTO because it loops back
to r0 while the socket is still in the TCP_SYN_SENT state, causing it
to be incorrectly dispatched to the connecting-client path. The
unexpected packet type encountered there sets sk_err to EPROTO.
After that, it invokes a listen() call on the same socket. This
listen() call succeeds because the kernel's listening path never
inspects or clears sk_err. Then, a new socket (r1) is created as a
normal client and connects to r0. However, vsock_accept() rejects this
incoming connection because the listener's sk_err still holds the
EPROTO error from the earlier failed self-connect.
This rejection causes the child socket created for r1's connection to
never be freed on virtio or hyperv transports; only the VMCI transport
implements pending_work to revisit and clean up a rejected socket.
For a non-blocking connect(), vsock_connect() may return -EINPROGRESS
immediately, and vsock_connect_timeout() can later set sk->sk_err
asynchronously.
Since no vsock transport ever sets sk_err on a socket while it is in
TCP_LISTEN state, checking it in vsock_accept() serves no purpose and
only carries forward errors left behind by earlier, unrelated
connection attempts on the same socket. Remove the checks so accept()
no longer rejects valid incoming connections because of a stale
error, which also avoids the resource leak described above. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSv4.1: zero referring call lists before decoding
decode_cb_sequence_args() allocates csa_rclists with kmalloc_objs(), so
each referring_call_list starts uninitialized. decode_rc_list() assigns
rcl_refcalls only when rcl_nrefcalls is nonzero. A valid list with zero
referring calls therefore leaves the pointer uninitialized, and
nfs4_callback_sequence() later passes stale slab contents to kfree().
Allocate csa_rclists with kzalloc_objs() so every rcl_refcalls member is
NULL from the beginning, including valid empty referring call lists. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: skip double clone set expressions on element insert
Both the dynset and newsetelem path clone the existing set expressions
when setting set element expressions if no override expressions are
provided. This results in a double clone, once to clone the template set
expressions then another clone on the new element. Add a flag to
annotate if userspace provides a override expression (ie. expression of
the same type of the set but different configuration), otherwise borrow
the existing expression from the set. Add conditionals to release
expression iif they represent an override. Use this new override_exprs
flag to dump the dynset expression override to userspace.
This simplifies the existing logic and it also fixes a bug with the
connlimit expression which results in a module refcount imbalance
WARNING splat when resorting on the default set expressions. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dma-direct: return struct page from dma_direct_alloc_from_pool()
Commit 5b138c534fda ("dma-direct: factor out a dma_direct_alloc_from_pool
helper") changed dma_direct_alloc_from_pool() to return the CPU address
from dma_alloc_from_pool(). That fits dma_direct_alloc(), but
dma_direct_alloc_pages() also uses the helper and expects a struct page *.
Fix this by making dma_direct_alloc_from_pool() return the struct page *
again, and pass the CPU address back through an out-parameter for the
dma_direct_alloc() caller. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/huge_memory: transfer the pmd dirty bit to the folio on zap
zap_huge_pmd_folio() propagates the pmd young bit to the folio for the
file case, but not the dirty bit. The pte path does propagate it, in
zap_present_folio_ptes() and so does the pmd split path, in
__split_huge_pmd_locked().
For most file mappings the omission is harmless, because writing to a
shared file mapping goes through page_mkwrite(), which dirties the folio.
tmpfs is different: it has no page_mkwrite(), and vma_wants_writenotify()
is false for it, so a *read* fault on a MAP_SHARED tmpfs mapping installs
a writable pmd via do_read_fault(). do_read_fault() does not call
fault_dirty_shared_page(), so subsequent stores through that mapping set
only the hardware dirty bit in the pmd and never call folio_mark_dirty().
A shmem folio allocated by a fault is marked uptodate but not dirty (see
the clear: block in shmem_get_folio_gfp()), so PG_dirty is never set at
all.
Unmapping such a folio - munmap(), or exit_mmap() when the process dies -
then loses the only record that it was written, because zap_huge_pmd()
drops the pmd without transferring the dirty bit. Reclaim afterwards sees
a clean shmem folio: the whole swap-out block in shrink_folio_list() is
inside "if (folio_test_dirty(folio))", so pageout() is skipped and the
folio falls into __remove_mapping(). There, folio_is_file_lru() is false
for a swapbacked folio, so no shadow entry is created and
__filemap_remove_folio(folio, NULL) simply empties the i_pages slot. The
data is freed without ever being written to swap, and the next fault on
that index returns a freshly zeroed folio.
This is silent data loss for any process that keeps state in a MAP_SHARED
tmpfs segment across an unmap - for example a cache handed from one
process generation to the next through /dev/shm. It requires the folio to
be PMD-mapped, so it only shows up once shmem THP is enabled (which is
what we did in Meta fleet and started noticing crashes); with THP off the
pte path transfers the dirty bit correctly. It also only becomes visible
when swap is enabled, because with no swap device shmem folios (which are
on the anon LRU) are not scanned by reclaim at all, so the clean folio is
never dropped.
Reproduced on x86_64 with a tmpfs mounted huge=within_size: read-fault a
2MB-backed region, write a known pattern through the resulting mapping,
munmap, force reclaim of the cgroup, then re-map and read back. Without
this patch the region reads back as zeros and vmstat shows zswpout 0 - the
data was discarded rather than swapped. With this patch the region reads
back correctly and the pages are swapped out as expected. With
huge=never, or when the first touch is a write, the test passes either
way. |

ALSA: harmony: initialize locks before requesting IRQ
snd_harmony_create() registers the IRQ before initializing h->lock and
h->mixer_lock. A pending interrupt can invoke the handler while these
locks are uninitialized.
Initialize both locks before requesting the IRQ so the handler always
sees valid lock state. |

powerpc/kexec_file: Prevent kexec range truncation
Sashiko AI review pointed out the following issue.
The __merge_memory_ranges() function incorrectly handles overlapping
memory ranges when merging them. Although sort_memory_ranges() sorts all
ranges by their start address in ascending order beforehand, the merge
logic remains defective in two ways:
1. It compares the current range's start against the previous element (i-1)
instead of the running target index (idx)
2. It unconditionally overwrites 'ranges[idx].end' with 'ranges[i].end'.
This logic flaw leads to critical memory truncation when a larger memory
range completely subsumes subsequent smaller ranges.
For example, consider a sorted input array with three ranges:
Range A (idx=0): [0x1000 - 0x9000]
Range B (i=1): [0x2000 - 0x5000] (completely inside Range A)
Range C (i=2): [0x6000 - 0x8000] (completely inside Range A)
1. When i=1 (Range B):
ranges[1].start (0x2000) <= ranges[0].end + 1 (0x9001) is TRUE.
The code executes: ranges[0].end = ranges[1].end, which erroneously
shrinks Range A's end from 0x9000 down to 0x5000.
2. When i=2 (Range C):
ranges[2].start (0x6000) <= ranges[1].end + 1 (0x5001) is FALSE.
The code falls into the else block, creating a broken new range.
As a result, valid memory fragments [0x5001 - 0x5fff] and [0x8001 - 0x9000]
are completely lost from the kexec exclude lists, potentially allowing
the crash kernel to overwrite active memory, causing data corruption
or crashes.
Fix this by ensuring the start of the current range is compared against the
end of the active merged range (idx), and use max() to safely prevent the
outer boundary from being truncated. |

s390/vfio-ap: Fix missing lock required to access list of ap_matrix_mdev objects
In order to traverse or add/remove ap_matrix_mdev objects in the
matrix_dev->mdev_list, the matrix_dev->guests_lock mutex must be held.
There are two functions that access the list without holding the mutex:
vfio_ap_mdev_probe function
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The vfio_ap_mdev_probe function uses the matrix_dev->mdevs_lock
mutex to guard the add of a newly created ap_matrix_mdev object to the
matrix_dev->mdev_list. This mutex does not protect list access; its purpose
is to guard against concurrent access to fields contained in an
ap_matrix_mdev object. This could lead to kernel memory corruption or
use-after-free if another mdev is created or removed concurrently.
The adding of an ap_matrix_mdev object to matrix_dev->mdev_list
is now guarded by the matrix_dev->guests_lock which is the correct
way to protect against concurrent mdev_list access.
Also removed the following two lines of code because the matrix_mdev is
allocated via vfio_alloc_device macro which uses kzalloc, so req_trigger
and cfg_chg_trigger are already zero-initialised when the struct is
allocated before the call to vfio_register_emulated_iommu_dev. This
prevents a window whereby these triggers are set to NULL after
the device is exposed to userspace.
matrix_mdev->req_trigger = NULL;
matrix_mdev->cfg_chg_trigger = NULL;
vfio_ap_mdev_for_queue function
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The status_show function that supports display of the status attribute of
the devices in /sys/bus/ap/devices calls the vfio_ap_mdev_for_queue
function which iterates the matrix_dev->mdev_list to find the object
representing the queue device whose status is to be displayed. In order to
traverse this list, the matrix_dev->guests_lock mutex must be held.
To fix this, the guests_lock mutex is taken prior to taking the
matrix_dev->mdevs_lock mutex in the status_show function. It is taken
there rather than the vfio_ap_mdev_for_queue function - where it is
needed - because it must be taken prior to the mdevs_lock mutex in order to
adhere to the proper locking order and prevent a lockdep splat; also
because the mdevs_lock is needed there to access fields within
the matrix_mdev object in that function.

iio: light: ltrf216a: fix runtime PM reference leak in error path
ltrf216a_get_lux() acquires a runtime PM reference by calling
ltrf216a_set_power_state(data, true). However, if
ltrf216a_read_data() fails, the function returns immediately without
dropping the reference.
This leaves the runtime PM usage count unbalanced, preventing the device
from autosuspending after a failed read.
Fix this by releasing the runtime PM reference before returning from the
error path. |

scsi: qla2xxx: Initialize NVMe abort_work once at submission
qla_nvme_fcp_abort() and qla_nvme_ls_abort() ran INIT_WORK() on
priv->abort_work immediately before schedule_work(). INIT_WORK()
reinitializes the work_struct, resetting its list head and clearing the
pending bit. If an abort is issued more than once for the same command
(for example, concurrent transport teardown and a timeout-driven abort),
the second INIT_WORK() reinitializes a work item that is already queued,
which can corrupt the workqueue list and lead to crashes or a looping
worker.
Initialize priv->abort_work once at command submission, next to the
existing per-command spin_lock_init(&priv->cmd_lock), and leave only
schedule_work() in the abort paths. schedule_work() already does nothing
when the work item is still pending, so a repeated abort no longer
disturbs an in-flight work item. The command is not returned to the
transport until the final kref_put()/release callback runs after
abort_work has completed, so the work item is idle before priv is reused
and the single submission-time INIT_WORK() is safe. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ceph: cap delegated inode count in ceph_parse_deleg_inos()
ceph_parse_deleg_inos() decodes interval sets of delegated inode numbers
from an MDS create-with-delegation reply. For each set it reads a 64-bit
start and a 64-bit len with ceph_decode_64_safe(), which only validates
that the eight bytes are present in the message, not the value, and then
loops over len while inserting entries into s_delegated_inos.
len is fully attacker controlled. A malicious or compromised MDS can send
one huge interval, many intervals in one reply, duplicate intervals, or
repeated replies that accumulate delegated inodes on the same session.
The original code bounded none of these and could spin the insert loop or
grow the xarray without limit.
Bound both dimensions with a single enforcement point. Track the number
of delegated inodes held by each MDS session in an atomic counter and
grow it only in ceph_insert_deleg_ino(), which uses atomic_add_unless()
to refuse to push the count past CEPH_MAX_DELEG_INOS. Because that helper
is the only place the counter grows, the per-session population can never
exceed the cap, so no separate per-session pre-check is needed. The
counter is decremented when async create consumes a delegated inode or
when an insert fails, incremented when a delegated inode is restored,
initialized with the session xarray, and reset when reconnect destroys
the xarray.
A per-session cap alone still lets one reply spin the insert loop on
duplicate ranges without growing the counter, so also cap the aggregate
interval length accepted from a single reply. Together these bound both
the loop trip count per reply and the xarray population across replies.
The cap is a fixed, client-chosen constant rather than a value derived
from the MDS. mds_client_prealloc_inos is a userspace MDS configuration
option; it is never sent to the kernel client on the wire, and a
server-supplied bound could not be trusted for a defensive limit in any
case. The constant is set well above that option's documented default of
1000 (a generous multiple), so legitimate refill behavior is unaffected
while the CPU and xarray memory a malformed delegation stream can consume
stays bounded.
Impact: a malicious or compromised Ceph MDS can no longer make a client
spin through an unbounded delegated-inode interval or grow one session's
delegated-inode xarray without limit. |

net: tap: fix wrong transport_header when sending VLAN-tagged frame
In tap_get_user_xdp(), when processing a VLAN-tagged frame (e.g.
ETH_P_8021Q), skb_set_network_header() is called first to advance
network_header past the VLAN tag to the inner protocol header.
skb_probe_transport_header() is then called with skb->protocol still
set to ETH_P_8021Q, while nhoff (derived from skb_network_offset())
already points past the VLAN tag to the inner protocol header.
In __skb_flow_dissect(), proto is initialized to ETH_P_8021Q and nhoff
points past the VLAN tag. When the dissector hits case ETH_P_8021Q, it
reads a struct vlan_hdr at the current nhoff via __skb_header_pointer(),
but that offset contains the inner protocol header (e.g. an IP header).
The bytes are misinterpreted as a VLAN header, yielding a garbage
encapsulated EtherType that matches no known protocol. The dissector
returns false, so skb_probe_transport_header() never calls
skb_set_transport_header(), leaving transport_header at its uninitialized
sentinel value (~0U).
Move skb_set_network_header() to after skb_probe_transport_header(). At
the time skb_probe_transport_header() is called, network_header still
points to the VLAN header (offset ETH_HLEN), so nhoff is correct and the
flow dissector can parse the VLAN header, extract the inner EtherType,
and advance nhoff to the inner protocol header, allowing transport_header
to be set correctly. |

drm/tegra: gr2d/gr3d: Initialize address register map before HOST1X client is registered
The host1x_client_register() function is called just prior to register map
initialization loop, making the device available to userspace. This may
result in userspace attempting to submits a job before the register map is
initialized. Address this by moving register initialization before host1x
client registration. |
