CVSS v3.1 |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipmi: Add limits to event and receive message requests
The driver would just fetch events and receive messages until the
BMC said it was done. To avoid issues with BMCs that never say they are
done, add a limit of 10 fetches at a time.
In addition, an si interface has an attn state it can return from the
hardware which is supposed to cause a flag fetch to see if the driver
needs to fetch events or message or a few other things. If the attn
bit gets stuck, it's a similar problem. So allow messages in between
flag fetches so the driver itself doesn't get stuck.
This is a more general fix than the previous fix for the specific bad
BMC, but should fix the more general issue of a BMC that won't stop
saying it has data.
This has been there from the beginning of the driver. It's not a bug
per-se, but it is accounting for bugs in BMCs. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipmi: Check event message buffer response for bad data
The event message buffer response data size got checked later when
processing, but check it right after the response comes back. It
appears some BMCs may return an empty message instead of an error
when fetching events.
There are apparently some new BMCs that make this error, so we need to
compensate. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/rds: handle zerocopy send cleanup before the message is queued
A zerocopy send can fail after user pages have been pinned but before
the message is attached to the sending socket.
The purge path currently infers zerocopy state from rm->m_rs, so an
unqueued message can be cleaned up as if it owned normal payload pages.
However, zerocopy ownership is really determined by the presence of
op_mmp_znotifier, regardless of whether the message has reached the
socket queue.
Capture op_mmp_znotifier up front in rds_message_purge() and use it as
the cleanup discriminator. If the message is already associated with a
socket, keep the existing completion path. Otherwise, drop the pinned
page accounting directly and release the notifier before putting the
payload pages.
This keeps early send failure cleanup consistent with the zerocopy
lifetime rules without changing the normal queued completion path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: correctly handle tunneled traffic on IPV6_CSUM GSO fallback
NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM only advertises support for checksum offload of
packets without IPv6 extension headers. Packets with extension
headers must fall back onto software checksumming. Since TSO
depends on checksum offload, those must revert to GSO.
The below commit introduces that fallback. It always checks
network header length. For tunneled packets, the inner header length
must be checked instead. Extend the check accordingly.
A special case is tunneled packets without inner IP protocol. Such as
RFC 6951 SCTP in UDP. Those are not standard IPv6 followed by
transport header either, so also must revert to the software GSO path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: adc: ti-adc161s626: use DMA-safe memory for spi_read()
Add a DMA-safe buffer and use it for spi_read() instead of a stack
memory. All SPI buffers must be DMA-safe.
Since we only need up to 3 bytes, we just use a u8[] instead of __be16
and __be32 and change the conversion functions appropriately. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ftgmac100: fix ring allocation unwind on open failure
ftgmac100_alloc_rings() allocates rx_skbs, tx_skbs, rxdes, txdes, and
rx_scratch in stages. On intermediate failures it returned -ENOMEM
directly, leaking resources allocated earlier in the function.
Rework the failure path to use staged local unwind labels and free
allocated resources in reverse order before returning -ENOMEM. This
matches common netdev allocation cleanup style. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: use check_add_overflow() to prevent u16 DACL size overflow
set_posix_acl_entries_dacl() and set_ntacl_dacl() accumulate ACE sizes
in u16 variables. When a file has many POSIX ACL entries, the
accumulated size can wrap past 65535, causing the pointer arithmetic
(char *)pndace + *size to land within already-written ACEs. Subsequent
writes then overwrite earlier entries, and pndacl->size gets a
truncated value.
Use check_add_overflow() at each accumulation point to detect the
wrap before it corrupts the buffer, consistent with existing
check_mul_overflow() usage elsewhere in smbacl.c. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_ncm: validate minimum block_len in ncm_unwrap_ntb()
The block_len read from the host-supplied NTB header is checked against
ntb_max but has no lower bound. When block_len is smaller than
opts->ndp_size, the bounds check of:
ndp_index > (block_len - opts->ndp_size)
will underflow producing a huge unsigned value that ndp_index can never
exceed, defeating the check entirely.
The same underflow occurs in the datagram index checks against block_len
- opts->dpe_size. With those checks neutered, a malicious USB host can
choose ndp_index and datagram offsets that point past the actual
transfer, and the skb_put_data() copies adjacent kernel memory into the
network skb.
Fix this by rejecting block lengths that cannot hold at least the NTB
header plus one NDP. This will make block_len - opts->ndp_size and
block_len - opts->dpe_size both well-defined.
Commit 8d2b1a1ec9f5 ("CDC-NCM: avoid overflow in sanity checking") fixed
a related class of issues on the host side of NCM. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: validate EaNameLength in smb2_get_ea()
smb2_get_ea() reads ea_req->EaNameLength from the client request and
passes it directly to strncmp() as the comparison length without
verifying that the length of the name really is the size of the input
buffer received.
Fix this up by properly checking the size of the name based on the value
received and the overall size of the request, to prevent a later
strncmp() call to use the length as a "trusted" size of the buffer.
Without this check, uninitialized heap values might be slowly leaked to
the client. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: require 3 sub-authorities before reading sub_auth[2]
parse_dacl() compares each ACE SID against sid_unix_NFS_mode and on
match reads sid.sub_auth[2] as the file mode. If sid_unix_NFS_mode is
the prefix S-1-5-88-3 with num_subauth = 2 then compare_sids() compares
only min(num_subauth, 2) sub-authorities so a client SID with
num_subauth = 2 and sub_auth = {88, 3} will match.
If num_subauth = 2 and the ACE is placed at the very end of the security
descriptor, sub_auth[2] will be 4 bytes past end_of_acl. The
out-of-band bytes will then be masked to the low 9 bits and applied as
the file's POSIX mode, probably not something that is good to have
happen.
Fix this up by forcing the SID to actually carry a third sub-authority
before reading it at all. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: macb: Use dev_consume_skb_any() to free TX SKBs
The napi_consume_skb() function is not intended to be called in an IRQ
disabled context. However, after commit 6bc8a5098bf4 ("net: macb: Fix
tx_ptr_lock locking"), the freeing of TX SKBs is performed with IRQs
disabled. To resolve the following call trace, use dev_consume_skb_any()
for freeing TX SKBs:

WARNING: lib/string_helpers.c:1035 at 0xc029e04c, CPU#0: swapper/0/1
memcmp: detected buffer overflow: 15 byte read of buffer size 14
Modules linked in:
CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.19.0 #1 NONE
As Kees said, "'names' is pointing to the final 'namelen' many bytes
of the allocation ... 'namelen' could be basically any length at all.
This fortify warning looks legit to me -- this code used to be reading
beyond the end of the allocation."
Since the size of the dynamic allocation is calculated with strlen()
we can use strcmp() instead of memcmp() and remain within bounds. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: usb: aqc111: Do not perform PM inside suspend callback
syzbot reports "task hung in rpm_resume"
This is caused by aqc111_suspend calling
the PM variant of its write_cmd routine.
The simplified call trace looks like this:
rpm_suspend()
usb_suspend_both() - here udev->dev.power.runtime_status == RPM_SUSPENDING
aqc111_suspend() - called for the usb device interface
aqc111_write32_cmd()
usb_autopm_get_interface()
pm_runtime_resume_and_get()
rpm_resume() - here we call rpm_resume() on our parent
rpm_resume() - Here we wait for a status change that will never happen.
At this point we block another task which holds
rtnl_lock and locks up the whole networking stack.
Fix this by replacing the write_cmd calls with their _nopm variants |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: rawsock: cancel tx_work before socket teardown
In rawsock_release(), cancel any pending tx_work and purge the write
queue before orphaning the socket. rawsock_tx_work runs on the system
workqueue and calls nfc_data_exchange which dereferences the NCI
device. Without synchronization, tx_work can race with socket and
device teardown when a process is killed (e.g. by SIGKILL), leading
to use-after-free or leaked references.
Set SEND_SHUTDOWN first so that if tx_work is already running it will
see the flag and skip transmitting, then use cancel_work_sync to wait
for any in-progress execution to finish, and finally purge any
remaining queued skbs. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: Compare MACs in constant time
To prevent timing attacks, MAC comparisons need to be constant-time.
Replace the memcmp() with the correct function, crypto_memneq(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
irqchip/sifive-plic: Fix frozen interrupt due to affinity setting
PLIC ignores interrupt completion message for disabled interrupt, explained
by the specification:
The PLIC signals it has completed executing an interrupt handler by
writing the interrupt ID it received from the claim to the
claim/complete register. The PLIC does not check whether the completion
ID is the same as the last claim ID for that target. If the completion
ID does not match an interrupt source that is currently enabled for
the target, the completion is silently ignored.
This caused problems in the past, because an interrupt can be disabled
while still being handled and plic_irq_eoi() had no effect. That was fixed
by checking if the interrupt is disabled, and if so enable it, before
sending the completion message. That check is done with irqd_irq_disabled().
However, that is not sufficient because the enable bit for the handling
hart can be zero despite irqd_irq_disabled(d) being false. This can happen
when affinity setting is changed while a hart is still handling the
interrupt.
This problem is easily reproducible by dumping a large file to uart (which
generates lots of interrupts) and at the same time keep changing the uart
interrupt's affinity setting. The uart port becomes frozen almost
instantaneously.
Fix this by checking PLIC's enable bit instead of irqd_irq_disabled(). |

net: ethernet: mtk_eth_soc: Reset prog ptr to old_prog in case of error in mtk_xdp_setup()
Reset eBPF program pointer to old_prog and do not decrease its ref-count
if mtk_open routine in mtk_xdp_setup() fails. |

net/sched: act_gate: snapshot parameters with RCU on replace
The gate action can be replaced while the hrtimer callback or dump path is
walking the schedule list.
Convert the parameters to an RCU-protected snapshot and swap updates under
tcf_lock, freeing the previous snapshot via call_rcu(). When REPLACE omits
the entry list, preserve the existing schedule so the effective state is
unchanged. |

mm/hugetlb: fix hugetlb_pmd_shared()
Patch series "mm/hugetlb: fixes for PMD table sharing (incl. using
mmu_gather)", v3.
One functional fix, one performance regression fix, and two related
comment fixes.
I cleaned up my prototype I recently shared [1] for the performance fix,
deferring most of the cleanups I had in the prototype to a later point.
While doing that I identified the other things.
The goal of this patch set is to be backported to stable trees "fairly"
easily. At least patch #1 and #4.
Patch #1 fixes hugetlb_pmd_shared() not detecting any sharing
Patch #2 + #3 are simple comment fixes that patch #4 interacts with.
Patch #4 is a fix for the reported performance regression due to excessive
IPI broadcasts during fork()+exit().
The last patch is all about TLB flushes, IPIs and mmu_gather.
Read: complicated
There are plenty of cleanups in the future to be had + one reasonable
optimization on x86. But that's all out of scope for this series.
Runtime tested, with a focus on fixing the performance regression using
the original reproducer [2] on x86.
This patch (of 4):
We switched from (wrongly) using the page count to an independent shared
count. Now, shared page tables have a refcount of 1 (excluding
speculative references) and instead use ptdesc->pt_share_count to identify
sharing.
We didn't convert hugetlb_pmd_shared(), so right now, we would never
detect a shared PMD table as such, because sharing/unsharing no longer
touches the refcount of a PMD table.
Page migration, like mbind() or migrate_pages() would allow for migrating
folios mapped into such shared PMD tables, even though the folios are not
exclusive. In smaps we would account them as "private" although they are
"shared", and we would be wrongly setting the PM_MMAP_EXCLUSIVE in the
pagemap interface.
Fix it by properly using ptdesc_pmd_is_shared() in hugetlb_pmd_shared(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vsock/virtio: cap TX credit to local buffer size
The virtio transports derives its TX credit directly from peer_buf_alloc,
which is set from the remote endpoint's SO_VM_SOCKETS_BUFFER_SIZE value.
On the host side this means that the amount of data we are willing to
queue for a connection is scaled by a guest-chosen buffer size, rather
than the host's own vsock configuration. A malicious guest can advertise
a large buffer and read slowly, causing the host to allocate a
correspondingly large amount of sk_buff memory.
The same thing would happen in the guest with a malicious host, since
virtio transports share the same code base.
Introduce a small helper, virtio_transport_tx_buf_size(), that
returns min(peer_buf_alloc, buf_alloc), and use it wherever we consume
peer_buf_alloc.
This ensures the effective TX window is bounded by both the peer's
advertised buffer and our own buf_alloc (already clamped to
buffer_max_size via SO_VM_SOCKETS_BUFFER_MAX_SIZE), so a remote peer
cannot force the other to queue more data than allowed by its own
vsock settings.
On an unpatched Ubuntu 22.04 host (~64 GiB RAM), running a PoC with
32 guest vsock connections advertising 2 GiB each and reading slowly
drove Slab/SUnreclaim from ~0.5 GiB to ~57 GiB; the system only
recovered after killing the QEMU process. That said, if QEMU memory is
limited with cgroups, the maximum memory used will be limited.
With this patch applied:
Before:
MemFree: ~61.6 GiB
Slab: ~142 MiB
SUnreclaim: ~117 MiB
After 32 high-credit connections:
MemFree: ~61.5 GiB
Slab: ~178 MiB
SUnreclaim: ~152 MiB
Only ~35 MiB increase in Slab/SUnreclaim, no host OOM, and the guest
remains responsive.
Compatibility with non-virtio transports:
- VMCI uses the AF_VSOCK buffer knobs to size its queue pairs per
socket based on the local vsk->buffer_* values; the remote side
cannot enlarge those queues beyond what the local endpoint
configured.
- Hyper-V's vsock transport uses fixed-size VMBus ring buffers and
an MTU bound; there is no peer-controlled credit field comparable
to peer_buf_alloc, and the remote endpoint cannot drive in-flight
kernel memory above those ring sizes.
- The loopback path reuses virtio_transport_common.c, so it
naturally follows the same semantics as the virtio transport.
This change is limited to virtio_transport_common.c and thus affects
virtio-vsock, vhost-vsock, and loopback, bringing them in line with the
"remote window intersected with local policy" behaviour that VMCI and
Hyper-V already effectively have.
