| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
af_unix: Set gc_in_progress to true in unix_gc().
Igor Ushakov reported that unix_gc() could run with gc_in_progress
being false if the work is scheduled while running:
Thread 1 Thread 2 Thread 3
-------- -------- --------
unix_schedule_gc() unix_schedule_gc()
`- if (!gc_in_progress) `- if (!gc_in_progress)
|- gc_in_progress = true |
`- queue_work() |
unix_gc() <----------------/ |

`- gc_in_progress = false |
|
unix_gc() <---------------------------------------------'
|
... /* gc_in_progress == false */
|
`- gc_in_progress = false
unix_peek_fpl() relies on gc_in_progress not to confuse GC
by MSG_PEEK.
Let's set gc_in_progress to true in unix_gc(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: avoid early lgr access in smc_clc_wait_msg
A CLC decline can be received while the handshake is still in an early
stage, before the connection has been associated with a link group.
The decline handling in smc_clc_wait_msg() updates link-group level sync
state for first-contact declines, but that state only exists after link
group setup has completed. Guard the link-group update accordingly and
keep the per-socket peer diagnosis handling unchanged.
This preserves the existing sync_err handling for established link-group
contexts and avoids touching link-group state before it is available. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: cfg80211: cancel pmsr_free_wk in cfg80211_pmsr_wdev_down
When the nl80211 socket that originated a PMSR request is
closed, cfg80211_release_pmsr() sets the request's nl_portid
to zero and schedules pmsr_free_wk to process the abort
asynchronously. If the interface is concurrently torn down
before that work runs, cfg80211_pmsr_wdev_down() calls
cfg80211_pmsr_process_abort() directly. However, the already-
scheduled pmsr_free_wk work item remains pending and may run
after the interface has been removed from the driver. This
could cause the driver's abort_pmsr callback to operate on a
torn-down interface, leading to undefined behavior and
potential crashes.
Cancel pmsr_free_wk synchronously in cfg80211_pmsr_wdev_down()
before calling cfg80211_pmsr_process_abort(). This ensures any
pending or in-progress work is drained before interface teardown
proceeds, preventing the work from invoking the driver abort
callback after the interface is gone. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring: ensure ctx->rings is stable for task work flags manipulation
If DEFER_TASKRUN | SETUP_TASKRUN is used and task work is added while
the ring is being resized, it's possible for the OR'ing of
IORING_SQ_TASKRUN to happen in the small window of swapping into the
new rings and the old rings being freed.
Prevent this by adding a 2nd ->rings pointer, ->rings_rcu, which is
protected by RCU. The task work flags manipulation is inside RCU
already, and if the resize ring freeing is done post an RCU synchronize,
then there's no need to add locking to the fast path of task work
additions.
Note: this is only done for DEFER_TASKRUN, as that's the only setup mode
that supports ring resizing. If this ever changes, then they too need to
use the io_ctx_mark_taskrun() helper. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: hold nfnl mutex in event notifier
We must serialize the release notifier and the config netlink function.
A concurrent thread can issue close() which can call the release function
while unrelated socket processes UNBIND request for same portid:
Oops: general protection fault, [..]
RIP: 0010:__instance_destroy+0x60/0x210 [nfnetlink_queue]
Call Trace:
nfqnl_recv_config+0x9b0/0xdc0 [nfnetlink_queue]
nfnetlink_rcv_msg+0x7c2/0xeb0
? __pfx_nfnetlink_rcv_msg+0x10/0x10
After this, parallel UNBIND and URELEASE events are impossible.
This change isn't nice, but its the shortest fix given instances
are not refcounted and the nfnetlink config callback drops the
rcu read lock early due to need for sleeping allocations. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ceph: fix UAF in __kick_flushing_caps() on cf entry freed during unlock
list_for_each_entry() iterates ci->i_cap_flush_list but drops
i_ceph_lock to send cap messages. During the unlock window,
handle_cap_flush_ack() can acquire i_ceph_lock, detach cf entries
with tid <= flush_tid from the list, release i_ceph_lock, and free
them via ceph_free_cap_flush() outside any lock. When the original
thread reacquires i_ceph_lock and the for-loop macro advances via
cf = list_next_entry(cf, i_list), it dereferences cf->i_list.next
on freed memory.
The race timeline:
__kick_flushing_caps() handle_cap_flush_ack()
----------------------- -----------------------
holds i_ceph_lock <---
iterates to cf (tid=10)
prepares FLUSH message
drops i_ceph_lock <---
__send_cap() ── FLUSH(tid=10)
MDS sends FLUSH_ACK(tid=10)
---> acquires i_ceph_lock
cf->tid(10) <= flush_tid(10),
detaches cf from i_cap_flush_list
drops i_ceph_lock
ceph_free_cap_flush(cf) <- frees it!
acquires i_ceph_lock <---
for-loop advances:
cf = list_next_entry(cf, i_list)
-- UAF on freed cf->i_list.next
The cf was just sent by __kick_flushing_caps itself via __send_cap().
The MDS may respond with FLUSH_ACK quickly enough that
handle_cap_flush_ack() frees cf before __kick_flushing_caps can
finish the iteration.
Fix by converting to a manual while loop: save the next pointer
under i_ceph_lock before dropping it, then use the saved pointer
after reacquiring, so the potentially-freed cf is never accessed again. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sunrpc: defer rq_argp and rq_resp free until after RCU grace period
svc_rqst_free() frees rqstp->rq_argp and rqstp->rq_resp synchronously
via kfree(), but defers the rqstp struct free via kfree_rcu(). After
svc_exit_thread() calls list_del_rcu() and svc_rqst_free(), there is
a window where RCU readers that started before list_del_rcu() can still
traverse the thread list and find the rqstp. These readers (e.g.
nfsd_nl_rpc_status_get_dumpit()) dereference rqstp->rq_argp, which has
already been freed — a use-after-free.
Fix this by moving the kfree of rq_argp and rq_resp into an explicit
call_rcu() callback alongside the struct free. Resources not accessed
by RCU readers (bvec, buffer pages, scratch folio, auth_data) remain
synchronously freed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/vfio_ccw: Selectively expand io_mutex
The io_mutex was defined to serialize the io_regions, but then has
also sort of been associated with the I/O themselves because of
the close relationship they share.
With the handful of races that are possible, the choices are either to:
A) expand the scope of io_mutex to close these remaining windows, or
B) reduce the scope of io_mutex to just io_region, and introduce a new
lock mechanism for the remaining I/O resources
This patch implements A, since B brings with it a lot more interactions
that would need to be tracked and kept in a correct hierarchy. It also
takes advantage of the workqueue element for cp_free() that now gets
called out of fsm_notoper(), which could be invoked out of an interrupt
context and thus cannot acquire a mutex itself. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sunrpc: wait for in-flight TLS handshake callback when cancel loses race
When wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout() in
svc_tcp_handshake() returns 0 (timeout) or -ERESTARTSYS (signal) and
tls_handshake_cancel() then returns false, handshake_complete() has
won the cancellation race: it has set HANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED and
is about to invoke svc_tcp_handshake_done(), but the callback's
side effects on xpt_flags and on svsk->sk_handshake_done have not
yet committed.
The current code reads xpt_flags immediately to decide whether the
session succeeded. Two races result.
If the callback has executed set_bit(XPT_TLS_SESSION) but not yet
clear_bit(XPT_HANDSHAKE), svc_tcp_handshake() sees a session,
enqueues the transport, and returns. svc_xprt_received() then
clears XPT_BUSY, a worker thread picks the transport up, the
dispatcher in svc_handle_xprt() observes XPT_HANDSHAKE still set,
and xpo_handshake is invoked a second time. That svc_tcp_handshake()
calls init_completion(&svsk->sk_handshake_done) while the original
callback concurrently calls complete_all() on it, corrupting the
embedded swait_queue.
If the callback has set HANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED but not yet
entered svc_tcp_handshake_done(), svc_tcp_handshake() reads
XPT_TLS_SESSION as clear and tears the connection down even though
the handshake is about to succeed.
Wait for the callback to commit before inspecting xpt_flags. The
completion is guaranteed to fire because handshake_complete()
invokes svc_tcp_handshake_done() unconditionally once it has set
HANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
af_unix: Fix UAF read of tail->len in unix_stream_data_wait()
unix_stream_data_wait() does skb_peek_tail(&sk->sk_receive_queue) without
holding any lock that prevents SKBs on that queue from being dequeued and
freed.
This has been the case since commit 79f632c71bea ("unix/stream: fix
peeking with an offset larger than data in queue").
The first consequence of this is that the pointer comparison
`tail != last` can be false even if `last` semantically refers to an
already-freed SKB while `tail` is a new SKB allocated at the same address;
which can cause unix_stream_data_wait() to wrongly keep blocking after new
data has arrived, but only in a weird scenario where a peeking recv() and
a normal recv() on the same socket are racing, which is probably not a
real problem.
But since commit 2b514574f7e8 ("net: af_unix: implement splice for stream
af_unix sockets"), `tail` is actually dereferenced, which can cause UAF in
the following race scenario (where test_setup() runs single-threaded,
and afterwards, test_thread1() and test_thread2() run concurrently in
two threads:
```
static int socks[2];
void test_setup(void) {
socketpair(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0, socks);
send(socks[1], "A", 1, 0);
int peekoff = 1;
setsockopt(socks[0], SOL_SOCKET, SO_PEEK_OFF, &peekoff, sizeof(peekoff));
}
void test_thread1(void) {
char dummy;
recv(socks[0], &dummy, 1, MSG_PEEK);
}
void test_thread2(void) {
char dummy;
recv(socks[0], &dummy, 1, 0);
shutdown(socks[1], SHUT_WR);
}
```
when racing like this:
```
thread1 thread2
unix_stream_read_generic
mutex_lock(&u->iolock)
skb_peek(&sk->sk_receive_queue)
skb_peek_next(skb, &sk->sk_receive_queue)
mutex_unlock(&u->iolock)
unix_stream_read_generic
unix_state_lock(sk)
skb_peek(&sk->sk_receive_queue)
unix_state_unlock(sk)
unix_stream_data_wait
unix_state_lock(sk)
tail = skb_peek_tail(&sk->sk_receive_queue)
spin_lock(&sk->sk_receive_queue.lock)
__skb_unlink(skb, &sk->sk_receive_queue)
spin_unlock(&sk->sk_receive_queue.lock)
consume_skb(skb) [frees the SKB]
`tail != last`: false
`tail`: true
`tail->len != last_len` ***UAF***
```
Fix the UAF by removing the read of tail->len; checking tail->len would
only make sense if SKBs in the receive queue of a UNIX socket could grow,
which can no longer happen.

That means this fix is not suitable for kernels before 6.5. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bcmgenet: fix racing timeout handler
The bcmgenet_timeout handler tries to take down all tx queues when
a single queue times out. This is over zealous and causes many race
conditions with queues that are still chugging along. Instead lets
only restart the timed out queue. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/vt-d: Fix race condition during PASID entry replacement
The Intel VT-d PASID table entry is 512 bits (64 bytes). When replacing
an active PASID entry (e.g., during domain replacement), the current
implementation calculates a new entry on the stack and copies it to the
table using a single structure assignment.
struct pasid_entry *pte, new_pte;
pte = intel_pasid_get_entry(dev, pasid);
pasid_pte_config_first_level(iommu, &new_pte, ...);
*pte = new_pte;
Because the hardware may fetch the 512-bit PASID entry in multiple
128-bit chunks, updating the entire entry while it is active (Present
bit set) risks a "torn" read. In this scenario, the IOMMU hardware
could observe an inconsistent state — partially new data and partially
old data — leading to unpredictable behavior or spurious faults.
Fix this by removing the unsafe "replace" helpers and following the
"clear-then-update" flow, which ensures the Present bit is cleared and
the required invalidation handshake is completed before the new
configuration is applied. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ctnetlink: ensure safe access to master conntrack
Holding reference on the expectation is not sufficient, the master
conntrack object can just go away, making exp->master invalid.
To access exp->master safely:
- Grab the nf_conntrack_expect_lock, this gets serialized with
clean_from_lists() which also holds this lock when the master
conntrack goes away.
- Hold reference on master conntrack via nf_conntrack_find_get().
Not so easy since the master tuple to look up for the master conntrack
is not available in the existing problematic paths.
This patch goes for extending the nf_conntrack_expect_lock section
to address this issue for simplicity, in the cases that are described
below this is just slightly extending the lock section.
The add expectation command already holds a reference to the master
conntrack from ctnetlink_create_expect().
However, the delete expectation command needs to grab the spinlock
before looking up for the expectation. Expand the existing spinlock
section to address this to cover the expectation lookup. Note that,
the nf_ct_expect_iterate_net() calls already grabs the spinlock while
iterating over the expectation table, which is correct.
The get expectation command needs to grab the spinlock to ensure master
conntrack does not go away. This also expands the existing spinlock
section to cover the expectation lookup too. I needed to move the
netlink skb allocation out of the spinlock to keep it GFP_KERNEL.
For the expectation events, the IPEXP_DESTROY event is already delivered
under the spinlock, just move the delivery of IPEXP_NEW under the
spinlock too because the master conntrack event cache is reached through
exp->master.
While at it, add lockdep notations to help identify what codepaths need
to grab the spinlock. |

mm: blk-cgroup: fix use-after-free in cgwb_release_workfn()
cgwb_release_workfn() calls css_put(wb->blkcg_css) and then later accesses
wb->blkcg_css again via blkcg_unpin_online(). If css_put() drops the last
reference, the blkcg can be freed asynchronously (css_free_rwork_fn ->
blkcg_css_free -> kfree) before blkcg_unpin_online() dereferences the
pointer to access blkcg->online_pin, resulting in a use-after-free:

** Stack based on commit 66672af7a095 ("Add linux-next specific files

I am seeing this crash sporadically in Meta fleet across multiple kernel
versions. A full reproducer is available at:
https://github.com/leitao/debug/blob/main/reproducers/repro_blkcg_uaf.sh
(The race window is narrow. To make it easily reproducible, inject a
msleep(100) between css_put() and blkcg_unpin_online() in
cgwb_release_workfn(). With that delay and a KASAN-enabled kernel, the
reproducer triggers the splat reliably in less than a second.)
Fix this by moving blkcg_unpin_online() before css_put(), so the
cgwb's CSS reference keeps the blkcg alive while blkcg_unpin_online()
accesses it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: raw: fix ro->uniq use-after-free in raw_rcv()
raw_release() unregisters raw CAN receive filters via can_rx_unregister(),
but receiver deletion is deferred with call_rcu(). This leaves a window
where raw_rcv() may still be running in an RCU read-side critical section
after raw_release() frees ro->uniq, leading to a use-after-free of the
percpu uniq storage.
Move free_percpu(ro->uniq) out of raw_release() and into a raw-specific
socket destructor. can_rx_unregister() takes an extra reference to the
socket and only drops it from the RCU callback, so freeing uniq from
sk_destruct ensures the percpu area is not released until the relevant
callbacks have drained.

| HTTP/2 servers could end up crashing due to inadvertently modifying its HPACK encoder concurrently. This happens because the server modifies the HPACK encoder from two goroutines without synchronization: one uses the encoder to encode a HEADERS frame as part of a response sent to a client and the other modifies the encoder's table size when handling a SETTINGS frame containing SETTINGS_HEADER_TABLE_SIZE that a client sends. A malicious client can repeatedly send a request while changing the header table size to crash the server. |

netfs: Fix missing barriers when accessing stream->subrequests locklessly
The list of subrequests attached to stream->subrequests is accessed without
locks by netfs_collect_read_results() and netfs_collect_write_results(),
and then they access subreq->flags without taking a barrier after getting
the subreq pointer from the list. Relatedly, the functions that build the
list don't use any sort of write barrier when constructing the list to make
sure that the NETFS_SREQ_IN_PROGRESS flag is perceived to be set first if
no lock is taken.
Fix this by:
(1) Add a new list_add_tail_release() function that uses a release barrier
to set the pointer to the new member of the list.
(2) Add a new list_first_entry_or_null_acquire() function that uses an
acquire barrier to read the pointer to the first member in a list (or
return NULL).
(3) Use list_add_tail_release() when adding a subreq to ->subrequests.
(4) Use list_first_entry_or_null_acquire() when initially accessing the
front of the list (when an item is removed, the pointer to the new
front iterm is obtained under the same lock). |

wifi: rsi: fix kthread lifetime race between self-exit and external-stop
RSI driver use both self-exit(kthread_complete_and_exit) and external-stop
(kthread_stop) when killing a kthread. Generally, kthread_stop() is called
first, and in this case, no particular issues occur.
However, in rare instances where kthread_complete_and_exit() is called
first and then kthread_stop() is called, a UAF occurs because the kthread
object, which has already exited and been freed, is accessed again.
Therefore, to prevent this with minimal modification, you must remove
kthread_stop() and change the code to wait until the self-exit operation
is completed. |
