| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: steam: Refactor registration
This refactors and simplifies the registration/unregistration flow. Since
we now only perform registration when the client isn't opened anymore, the
logic for handling that can be removed, and the rest of the function
streamlined.
We also remove the previous assumption that we have a serial number to show
we're registered, replacing it with a single purpose boolean.
In a previous refactor the code for unregistering a battery if later
registration steps failed was accidentally left out. As a result, a
lingering power_supply object could get left over after the steam object
was torn down. This is also fixed here. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: alps: unregister DualPoint Stick input device on remove
alps_input_configured() allocates a second input device ("DualPoint
Stick") with input_allocate_device() and registers it, but the
alps_driver struct has no .remove handler and input2 is not tracked in
hdev->inputs. The default remove path (hid_hw_stop -> hidinput_disconnect)
only iterates hdev->inputs, so input2 is never unregistered and leaks
on every device removal.
Add a .remove handler that stops the device first (preventing URB
callbacks from touching input2 during teardown) and then unregisters
input2. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipmr: account multicast table and route memory
A netadmin in a user+net namespace can create many IPv4 and IPv6
multicast routing tables with MRT_TABLE and MRT6_TABLE. Each unseen
id allocates an mr_table via the shared mr_table_alloc(), links it
into the per-net list, and leaves it until netns teardown. Those
objects were not charged to memcg, so the host unreclaimable slab
grows with the table count.
Account mr_table allocations with GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT and mark the
IPv4/IPv6 MFC caches SLAB_ACCOUNT. This matches the established
handling of IP addresses, routes and alternate interface names.
Unresolved MFC entries are still allocated from softIRQ with
GFP_ATOMIC and are not charged. They expire after 10 seconds and are
bounded by the socket receive queue; see commit 0079ad8e8dc3
("ipmr: remove hard code cache_resolve_queue_len limit"). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/secretmem: properly account locked pages
secretmem accounts folios by treating memory as if it were mlock()'d and
thus limited by the RLIMIT_MEMLOCK limit.
However the folios are unevictable and remain so until the inode is
evicted, eliminating usual mlock() semantics - mapping folios then
unmapping them does not clear their unevictable state, since it depends on
AS_UNEVICTABLE, not PG_mlocked.
A user can therefore easily work around the RLIMIT_MEMLOCK limit - simply
map then unmap and VmLck no longer counts the secretmem range. Worse,
folios are not accounted in the process's RSS, meaning the OOM killer
won't know to kill the process.
Repeatedly mapping/unmapping (or forking) can then result in the
consumption of all available system memory with unevictable folios and
cause system instability.
A secretmem fd can be passed between processes and over fork so a
per-process limit simply does not make sense, so follow the precedent set
by io_uring, perf, skbuff, iommufd and xdp by tracking the number of
locked pages in user_struct->locked_vm.
Since the scope tracked is actually inode lifetime, the RLIMIT_MEMLOCK
applies per-user not per-process, so it doesn't make sense to bypass for
users with CAP_IPC_LOCK, therefore remove this bypass.
There is simply no reason to carry on marking the mapping as mlock()'d
since it's misleading and the lifecycle is now correctly handled, so
remove this too.
Note that secretmem does not support any form of truncation (including
hole punching) and the folios are unreclaimable, so the folios need only
be accounted on fault and unaccounted on inode destruction.
__secretmem_account_pages() is more or less a duplicate of the code that
io_uring etc. use, but since this is a bug fix that needs backporting,
defer any de-duplication efforts to a follow-up.
test_mlock_limit() asserts mlock_future_ok() on mmap(), however this has
been removed, so remove the test altogether for the fix. A new test will
be sent separately for upstream. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kasan: fix cache shrink race with CPU hotplug
kasan_quarantine_remove_cache() first invokes per_cpu_remove_cache() on
all online CPUs. Each callback moves objects belonging to the cache from
cpu_quarantine to the CPU's shrink_qlist, where they can later be freed
from task context.
kmem_cache_destroy() invokes the quarantine removal path while holding
cpus_read_lock(), but kmem_cache_shrink() does not. The latter can
therefore race with CPU offlining as follows:
kmem_cache_shrink() CPU hotplug
------------------- -----------
on_each_cpu()
CPU1 moves objects to
CPU1's shrink_qlist
on_each_cpu() returns
CPU1 goes offline
kasan_cpu_offline()
drains cpu_quarantine
leaves shrink_qlist untouched
for_each_online_cpu()
skips CPU1
The objects left on CPU1's shrink_qlist are not returned to the slab
allocator. This may prevent kmem_cache_shrink() from releasing slabs that
would otherwise become empty. If CPU1 remains offline, a later
kmem_cache_destroy() also skips the list and can report that the cache
still contains objects.
An intermittent occurrence was observed with a virtio-9p filesystem. The
mount and umount commands both returned 0, but the kernel logged the
following during the userspace-triggered teardown:

Thus, a successful umount left objects in the 9p fcall cache and prevented
the cache from being destroyed cleanly.
Per-CPU shrink_qlist storage exists for every possible CPU, and each list
is protected by its own raw spinlock. Iterate over possible CPUs so that
a list populated before its CPU went offline is drained as well.
for_each_possible_cpu() can do more work than for_each_online_cpu(), but
this change only affects CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC kernels. The extra work is
limited to cache shrink and cache destruction paths and does not affect
the normal allocation/free fast path. It adds one raw-spinlock-protected
scan of each possible CPU's shrink list. These lists are normally empty;
a non-empty list is traversed to remove objects belonging to the cache
being shrunk or destroyed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Free transport channel on IDR failure
If transport channel setup succeeds but the following IDR insertion fails,
the error path destroys the transport device and frees the channel info
without invoking the transport cleanup callback.
Call chan_free() before destroying the device so transport specific
resources such as IRQs, mailbox channels and mapped shared memory are
released consistently with the normal teardown path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Drop handle on protocol bind failures
The SCMI bus notifier acquires an SCMI handle when the driver core emits
BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER, before invoking the protocol driver probe
callback. The protocol probe path only checks whether sdev->handle is
set.
If device_link_add() fails after the handle has been acquired, the
protocol device can still bind with a valid handle but without the
dependency link to the SCMI parent. A concurrent parent unbind can then
miss the child and tear down the SCMI instance while the child still
holds a handle into it.
If the protocol driver probe later fails, for example with
-EPROBE_DEFER, the driver core emits BUS_NOTIFY_DRIVER_NOT_BOUND rather
than BUS_NOTIFY_UNBOUND_DRIVER. The SCMI notifier only released the
handle on BUS_NOTIFY_UNBOUND_DRIVER, so each failed protocol-device bind
leaked the SCMI instance users refcount and left sdev->handle set after
the failed probe.
Make the link helper report failure and drop the acquired handle if the
link cannot be created. Also handle BUS_NOTIFY_DRIVER_NOT_BOUND in the
same cleanup path used for unbind so failed probes balance the earlier
BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER acquisition. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/erdma: complete object teardown when the destroy command fails
erdma_destroy_qp(), erdma_destroy_cq(), erdma_dereg_mr(), and
erdma_destroy_ah() returned early when erdma_post_cmd_wait() failed,
leaking the queue buffers, MTTs, doorbells and the STAG, QPN, CQN and AHN
identifiers. A command timeout clears ERDMA_CMDQ_STATE_OK_BIT and
permanently disables the command queue, so no retry can succeed; the RDMA
core keeps the object after a failed destructor and forced uverbs cleanup
then nulls the pointers, making the resources unreachable.
Warn on failure but release every software-owned resource and return
success, since during terminal destruction the hardware command result is
only diagnostic. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/cxgb4: Fix dereg_skb leak and double free in write_tpt_entry()
When the device is in the fatal error state, write_tpt_entry() returns -EIO
before handing the caller's preallocated skb to the transmit path; its
allocation-failure returns do the same. c4iw_dereg_mr() ignores the error
and frees mhp, leaking mhp->dereg_skb. c4iw_get_dma_mr() instead frees the
skb a second time after dereg_mem() already consumed it, a double free.
Make write_tpt_entry() the sole owner of a non-NULL skb, freeing it on
every return preceding handoff to c4iw_ofld_send(): fatal error, tpt and
stag allocation failure. c4iw_ofld_send() consumes the skb on success and
error alike, so drop the redundant kfree_skb() in c4iw_get_dma_mr() after
dereg_mem(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: nl80211: clean up color-change beacon data on errors
nl80211_color_change() calls nl80211_parse_beacon() for the beacon_next
template, which can allocate params.beacon_next.mbssid_ies and .rnr_ies.
A parsing failure returned directly instead of using the out: cleanup,
leaking any allocations completed before the error.
Allocate the nested attribute table before parsing beacon_next. Its
allocation failure can then return before beacon data exists, while a
later parsing failure uses out: to release the parsed data. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix mmap_lock leak in irq_work path
stack_map_get_build_id_offset() introduced a per-CPU irq_work to defer
mmap_read_unlock() from NMI context, and bpf_find_vma() later reused the
same mmap_unlock_work. Both callers only check whether the work is busy
before taking mmap_lock, so a nested caller can reuse the slot before the
first caller queues it. Two read locks may then be acquired while only one
deferred unlock runs, leaking a read lock and blocking exit_mmap().
Reserve the per-CPU slot before mmap_read_trylock(). Use the same wrapper
in stackmap and bpf_find_vma() so both callers release the reservation on
trylock failure. Keep rejecting the slot while the irq_work remains busy.
Release it after the irq_work callback unlocks the mm. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firewire: core: fix memory leak in error path of build_tree()
In the error path of build_tree(), node instances can remain in the local
linked list when the function returns.
Whenever an invalid value is detected in the self ID sequence, each
allocated node instance is either an entry in the linked list or an
entry in the ports array of its parent node. Therefore, the allocate
node instances can be safely released by traversing the linked list from
its head.
Release the remaining node instances with for_each_fw_node() before
returning to the caller. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
null_blk: free zones array on device power-off
null_init_zoned_dev() allocates dev->zones when a zoned device is powered
on, but null_del_dev() never frees it on power-off; dev->zones is only
freed later in null_free_dev(), when the configfs directory is removed. If
the device is powered off and then on again, null_init_zoned_dev()
allocates a new array and overwrites the dev->zones pointer, leaking the
previous allocation each power cycle.
Free dev->zones in null_del_dev() via null_free_zoned_dev() to solve it.
And calling null_free_zoned_dev() in null_free_dev() is no longer necessary
because every caller already invokes null_del_dev() first: via
nullb_group_drop_item() before nullb_device_release(), in the
null_add_dev() error path of null_create_dev(), and in null_destroy_dev().
Remove the redundant call.
And take &lock around zone_cond_store() in the two store wrappers to
serialize dev->zones check-and-deref against its alloc/free, which already
run under &lock. The reason there was no problem before is that only
nullb_device_release() or null_exit() frees the dev->zones, which
guarantees that subsequent users won't access the configfs interface. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: free preauth sessions on connection teardown
SMB3.1.1 multichannel binding preserves the preauthentication hash in a
preauth_session between the NTLM negotiate and authenticate requests.
The binding NTLM negotiate allocates this object and returns
STATUS_MORE_PROCESSING_REQUIRED. If the client disconnects before it sends
the authenticate request, neither the authenticate nor error cleanup paths
free the object.
Release any remaining preauthentication sessions when tearing down the
connection. Initialize the list when allocating the connection so that this
cleanup is safe regardless of the negotiated dialect. |
| 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:
smb: client: fix request buffer leak in smb2_new_read_req()
smb2_new_read_req() allocates the request buffer with
smb2_plain_req_init() but only publishes it to the caller with
*buf = req at the very end of the function. Two error returns sit in
between:
rc = smb2_plain_req_init(SMB2_READ, io_parms->tcon, server,
(void **) &req, total_len);
if (rc)
return rc;
if (server == NULL)
return -ECONNABORTED;
[...]
rdata->mr = smbd_register_mr(server->smbd_conn,
&rdata->subreq.io_iter,
true, need_invalidate);
if (!rdata->mr)
return -EAGAIN;
On either of them the buffer is neither released nor handed back, so
it is leaked. The caller cannot clean up after it: smb2_async_readv()
does 'goto out' on a non-zero return, which skips the
cifs_small_buf_release(buf) at async_readv_out, and buf has not been
assigned at that point in any case.
The write path has never had this problem. smb2_async_writev()
registers the memory region inline and jumps to its release label
instead of returning:
wdata->mr = smbd_register_mr(...);
if (!wdata->mr) {
rc = -EAGAIN;
goto async_writev_out;
}
Commit b7972092199f ("cifs: smbd: Retry on memory registration
failure") changed both sides from -ENOBUFS to -EAGAIN in a single
patch, which puts the two shapes next to each other.
Only the -EAGAIN return is reachable in practice, because
smb2_plain_req_init() calls smb2_reconnect() first and that already
fails with -EIO when server is NULL, before anything is allocated.
Both returns are given the same treatment here rather than leaving
one of them correct only by accident.
Because -EAGAIN is a replayable error, the failure also reaches the
retry block at the end of smb2_async_readv(), which marks the
subrequest NETFS_SREQ_NEED_RETRY, so a failing registration can be
retried rather than ending the I/O, and every attempt that reaches it
leaks another buffer. smb2_should_replay() short-circuits on
tcon->retry, so on a hard mount the attempt count is not bounded by
the retrans setting.
Only the asynchronous read path is affected. The synchronous
SMB2_read() caller passes rdata == NULL and the memory registration
block is guarded on rdata.
The memory registration failure path was pointed out by the Sashiko
AI reviewer while it was reviewing an unrelated patch to
smb2_async_readv(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: account classifier filter allocations to memcg
Allocations in the tc classifier *_change() paths (filter objects,
per-CPU counters, and per-filter aux data) use plain GFP_KERNEL without
__GFP_ACCOUNT, allowing unprivileged users to pin kernel memory outside
memcg charging. The shared tcf_exts_init_ex() action array allocation in
cls_api.c was also uncharged; this patch closes it along with the
per-classifier filter-object/percpu/aux allocations that remain
unaccounted.
Add GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT to:
- the shared tcf_exts_init_ex() action array (cls_api.c), common to every
filter of every classifier (32 pointers, 256 bytes);
- the filter-object, per-CPU-counter, and per-filter aux allocations in
cls_basic, cls_bpf, cls_cgroup, cls_flow, cls_flower, cls_fw,
cls_matchall, cls_route and cls_u32;
- the u32_init_knode() replace-path knode allocation (cls_u32.c), which
allocates the same struct tc_u_knode + sel.keys on every replace of an
existing knode and was missed by the create-path-only conversion.
Also fix the cls_basic error path: basic_change() inserts fnew into the
IDR before allocating the per-CPU counter. If alloc_percpu() fails the
errout path kfree'd fnew without idr_remove, leaving a dangling pointer
in the IDR. With GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT the percpu alloc becomes failable
on demand (memcg at memory.max), making the dead path attacker-reachable
and burning the handle permanently. Add the idr_remove on the percpu
failure path, matching the basic_set_parms failure-path pattern.
Note: vega@nebusec.ai provided a poc for basic_cls, but it was easy to
extend to the other classifiers.
Conditions to recreate the bug:
- CONFIG_NET_SCHED, CONFIG_NET_CLS_* (the classifier being used),
CONFIG_NET_CLS_ACT, CONFIG_MEMCG, CONFIG_USER_NS, CONFIG_NET_NS.
- Unprivileged user in a fresh user+network namespace (unshare -Urn),
or root with CAP_NET_ADMIN.
- Create a large number of tc filters (e.g. tc filter add dev lo
ingress ... <classifier> ...) while watching a memcg-limited cgroup:
system slab grows far faster than memory.current, pinning kernel
memory outside memcg charging. |

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. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: force complete the KIQ ring fences on reset
Like the MES scheduler ring, the KIQ ring sets no_scheduler = true and uses a
polling fence, so it is skipped by the force-completion loop in
amdgpu_device_pre_asic_reset(). Its hw fence value lives in wb (GTT) memory and
survives a MODE1 reset while fence_drv.sync_seq keeps advancing, so after a
reset the first KIQ submission can poll forever on a seq that is never written
back.
Force complete the KIQ ring fences too so their hw fence is realigned to
sync_seq. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tipc: avoid busy looping in tipc_exit_net()
Blamed commit introduced a busy-wait loop in tipc_exit_net()
to wait for pending UDP bearer cleanup works to complete:
while (atomic_read(&tn->wq_count))
cond_resched();
This loop can busy-wait for a long time if cond_resched() is a NOP. This
typically happens if the netns exit is executed by a high priority task,
or under kernels configured without preemption (CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE). In
such cases, it wastes CPU cycles and can lead to soft lockups.
Fix this by replacing the busy loop with wait_var_event(), allowing the
thread to sleep properly until the work queue count reaches zero.
Accordingly, update cleanup_bearer() to use atomic_dec_and_test() and
wake_up_var() to wake up the waiter when the count drops to zero.
This uses the global wait queue hash table, avoiding the need to bloat
struct tipc_net with a wait_queue_head_t. The atomic_dec_and_test()
provides the necessary memory barrier to ensure the wakeup is not missed. |
