| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/rxe: Fix the error "trying to register non-static key in rxe_cleanup_task"
In the function rxe_create_qp(), rxe_qp_from_init() is called to
initialize qp, internally things like rxe_init_task are not setup until
rxe_qp_init_req().
If an error occurred before this point then the unwind will call
rxe_cleanup() and eventually to rxe_qp_do_cleanup()/rxe_cleanup_task()
which will oops when trying to access the uninitialized spinlock.
If rxe_init_task is not executed, rxe_cleanup_task will not be called. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: mpi3mr: Fix an issue found by KASAN
Write only correct size (32 instead of 64 bytes). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPICA: ACPICA: check null return of ACPI_ALLOCATE_ZEROED in acpi_db_display_objects
ACPICA commit 0d5f467d6a0ba852ea3aad68663cbcbd43300fd4
ACPI_ALLOCATE_ZEROED may fails, object_info might be null and will cause
null pointer dereference later. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: cadence: cdns_i2c_master_xfer(): Fix runtime PM leak on error path
The cdns_i2c_master_xfer() function gets a runtime PM reference when the
function is entered. This reference is released when the function is
exited. There is currently one error path where the function exits
directly, which leads to a leak of the runtime PM reference.
Make sure that this error path also releases the runtime PM reference. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
virtio_vdpa: build affinity masks conditionally
We try to build affinity mask via create_affinity_masks()
unconditionally which may lead several issues:
- the affinity mask is not used for parent without affinity support
(only VDUSE support the affinity now)
- the logic of create_affinity_masks() might not work for devices
other than block. For example it's not rare in the networking device
where the number of queues could exceed the number of CPUs. Such
case breaks the current affinity logic which is based on
group_cpus_evenly() who assumes the number of CPUs are not less than
the number of groups. This can trigger a warning[1]:
if (ret >= 0)
WARN_ON(nr_present + nr_others < numgrps);
Fixing this by only build the affinity masks only when
- Driver passes affinity descriptor, driver like virtio-blk can make
sure to limit the number of queues when it exceeds the number of CPUs
- Parent support affinity setting config ops
This help to avoid the warning. More optimizations could be done on
top.

Example thread interleaving that causes the general protection fault
is as follows:
CPU1 (vmci_host_poll) CPU2 (vmci_host_do_init_context)
----- -----
// Read uninitialized context
context = vmci_host_dev->context;
// Initialize context
vmci_host_dev->context = vmci_ctx_create();
vmci_host_dev->ct_type = VMCIOBJ_CONTEXT;
if (vmci_host_dev->ct_type == VMCIOBJ_CONTEXT) {
// Dereferencing the wrong pointer
poll_wait(..., &context->host_context);
}
In this scenario, vmci_host_poll() reads vmci_host_dev->context first,
and then reads vmci_host_dev->ct_type to check that
vmci_host_dev->context is initialized. However, since these two reads
are not atomically executed, there is a chance of a race condition as
described above.
To fix this race condition, read vmci_host_dev->context after checking
the value of vmci_host_dev->ct_type so that vmci_host_poll() always
reads an initialized context. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: core: Prevent invalid memory access when there is no parent
Commit 813665564b3d ("iio: core: Convert to use firmware node handle
instead of OF node") switched the kind of nodes to use for label
retrieval in device registration. Probably an unwanted change in that
commit was that if the device has no parent then NULL pointer is
accessed. This is what happens in the stock IIO dummy driver when a
new entry is created in configfs:
# mkdir /sys/kernel/config/iio/devices/dummy/foo
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: ...
...
Call Trace:
__iio_device_register
iio_dummy_probe
Since there seems to be no reason to make a parent device of an IIO
dummy device mandatory, let’s prevent the invalid memory access in
__iio_device_register when the parent device is NULL. With this
change, the IIO dummy driver works fine with configfs. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: xiic: xiic_xfer(): Fix runtime PM leak on error path
The xiic_xfer() function gets a runtime PM reference when the function is
entered. This reference is released when the function is exited. There is
currently one error path where the function exits directly, which leads to
a leak of the runtime PM reference.
Make sure that this error path also releases the runtime PM reference. |

btrfs: fix assertion of exclop condition when starting balance
Balance as exclusive state is compatible with paused balance and device
add, which makes some things more complicated. The assertion of valid
states when starting from paused balance needs to take into account two
more states, the combinations can be hit when there are several threads
racing to start balance and device add. This won't typically happen when
the commands are started from command line.
Scenario 1: With exclusive_operation state == BTRFS_EXCLOP_NONE.
Concurrently adding multiple devices to the same mount point and
btrfs_exclop_finish executed finishes before assertion in
btrfs_exclop_balance, exclusive_operation will changed to
BTRFS_EXCLOP_NONE state which lead to assertion failed:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: r8712: Fix memory leak in _r8712_init_xmit_priv()
In the above mentioned routine, memory is allocated in several places.
If the first succeeds and a later one fails, the routine will leak memory.
This patch fixes commit 2865d42c78a9 ("staging: r8712u: Add the new driver
to the mainline kernel"). A potential memory leak in
r8712_xmit_resource_alloc() is also addressed. |

net: hns3: fix deadlock issue when externel_lb and reset are executed together

In externel_lb process, the hns3 driver call napi_disable()
first, then the reset happen, then the restore process of the
externel_lb will fail, and will not call napi_enable(). When
doing externel_lb again, napi_disable() will be double call,
cause a deadlock of rtnl_lock().
This patch use the HNS3_NIC_STATE_DOWN state to protect the
calling of napi_disable() and napi_enable() in externel_lb
process, just as the usage in ndo_stop() and ndo_start(). |

bpf: Fix issue in verifying allow_ptr_leaks
After we converted the capabilities of our networking-bpf program from
cap_sys_admin to cap_net_admin+cap_bpf, our networking-bpf program
failed to start. Because it failed the bpf verifier, and the error log
is "R3 pointer comparison prohibited".
A simple reproducer as follows,
SEC("cls-ingress")
int ingress(struct __sk_buff *skb)
{
struct iphdr *iph = (void *)(long)skb->data + sizeof(struct ethhdr);
if ((long)(iph + 1) > (long)skb->data_end)
return TC_ACT_STOLEN;
return TC_ACT_OK;
}
Per discussion with Yonghong and Alexei [1], comparison of two packet
pointers is not a pointer leak. This patch fixes it.
Our local kernel is 6.1.y and we expect this fix to be backported to
6.1.y, so stable is CCed.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwrng: virtio - Fix race on data_avail and actual data
The virtio rng device kicks off a new entropy request whenever the
data available reaches zero. When a new request occurs at the end
of a read operation, that is, when the result of that request is
only needed by the next reader, then there is a race between the
writing of the new data and the next reader.
This is because there is no synchronisation whatsoever between the
writer and the reader.
Fix this by writing data_avail with smp_store_release and reading
it with smp_load_acquire when we first enter read. The subsequent
reads are safe because they're either protected by the first load
acquire, or by the completion mechanism.
Also remove the redundant zeroing of data_idx in random_recv_done
(data_idx must already be zero at this point) and data_avail in
request_entropy (ditto). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: v4l2-core: Fix a potential resource leak in v4l2_fwnode_parse_link()
If fwnode_graph_get_remote_endpoint() fails, 'fwnode' is known to be NULL,
so fwnode_handle_put() is a no-op.
Release the reference taken from a previous fwnode_graph_get_port_parent()
call instead.
Also handle fwnode_graph_get_port_parent() failures.
In order to fix these issues, add an error handling path to the function
and the needed gotos. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
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. |
