| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tap: free page on error paths in tap_get_user_xdp()
tap_get_user_xdp() rejects a frame shorter than ETH_HLEN with -EINVAL,
and returns -ENOMEM when build_skb() fails. Both paths jump to the err
label without freeing the page that vhost_net_build_xdp() allocated for
the frame. tap_sendmsg() discards the per-buffer return value and always
returns 0, so vhost_tx_batch() takes the success path and never frees
the page; each rejected frame in a batch leaks one page-frag chunk.
Free the page on both error paths, before the skb is built. This is the
tap counterpart of the same leak in tun_xdp_one(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: diag: reject stale associations in dump_one path
The SCTP exact sock_diag lookup can hold a transport reference, block on
lock_sock(sk), and then resume after sctp_association_free() has marked
the association dead and freed its bind address list.
When that happens, inet_assoc_attr_size() and
inet_diag_msg_sctpasoc_fill() can still dereference association state
that is no longer valid for reporting. In particular,
inet_diag_msg_sctpasoc_fill() may read an empty bind-address list as a
real sctp_sockaddr_entry and trigger an out-of-bounds read from
unrelated association memory.
Reject the association after taking the socket lock if it has been
reaped or detached from the endpoint, and report the lookup as stale.
This keeps the exact dump-one path from formatting torn association
state. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: SEV: Nullify "have run CPUs" mask pointer when freeing it
Nullify have_run_cpus when freeing the mask, particularly in the error path
of __sev_guest_init(), so that KVM doesn't have to subtly use sev->active
to track whether or not the mask has been freed. As pointed out by Sashiko,
blindly freeing the mask in sev_vm_destroy() results in a double-free if
the mask is freed if __sev_guest_init() fails.
Throw the logic in a helper as nullifying the pointer is frustratingly
difficult and weird due to have_run_cpus being a single-entry array when
CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n. Deliberately don't use CPUMASK_VAR_NULL, as it's not
directly assignable when the cpumask is on-stack, e.g. requires using a
local variable and a memcpy(), which is beyond ridiculous. Furthermore,
while clearing the on-stack bitmask is an unnecessary and arguably unwanted
side effect, KVM absolutely relies on '0' being the "null" value given that
the struct is zero-allocated.
Opportunistically add an alloc() helper to pair with free(); there are just
enough call sites to make doing so worthwhile. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Hold map BTF for the memory allocator destructor record
bpf_ma_set_dtor() duplicates map->record so that the bpf_mem_alloc
destructor can release the special fields of hash and rhash map elements
once the allocator frees them for good. btf_record_dup() only acquires
references on kernel and module BTF. Fields whose types live in the map
BTF keep pointing into it: a kptr to a local type refers to map->btf,
and a list_head or rb_root field carries a value_rec owned by the struct
meta table of map->btf.
That borrowed state can outlive the map. When RCU callbacks are still in
flight, bpf_mem_alloc_destroy() copies the allocator and defers the final
drain, together with the destructor context, to a workqueue.
bpf_map_free() then frees map->record and drops the map's BTF reference
as soon as map_free() returns. Once the program that loaded the BTF is
gone as well, the BTF is freed while the worker still uses the
duplicate. The worker dereferences it through btf_is_kernel() and
btf_find_struct_meta() in bpf_obj_free_fields() when destroying elements
that were freed under RCU, and through btf_is_kernel() in
btf_record_free() when releasing the context itself:

Freeing a map that still holds more elements than the allocator's high
watermark is enough to get there, because the bulk free during teardown
queues the RCU callback that makes bpf_mem_alloc_destroy() defer.
Non-preallocated hash maps and resizable hash maps both register the
destructor and are affected alike.
Keep one reference on the map BTF in the destructor context. Every
non-kernel pointer in the duplicated record is either map->btf or memory
owned by it, so a single reference covers kptrs, list heads, and rb
roots, and mirrors what bpf_map_meta_alloc() does for the duplicated
record of an inner map. Release it only after the duplicated record has
been freed: the worker is preemptible and not in an RCU read-side
critical section, so dropping the last reference first would let the
BTF be freed while btf_record_free() still reads its fields. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp: Add preempt_{disable,enable}_nested() in reqsk_queue_hash_req().
syzbot reported a weird reqsk->rsk_refcnt underflow in
__inet_csk_reqsk_queue_drop().
The captured reqsk_put() in __inet_csk_reqsk_queue_drop()
is called only when it successfully removes reqsk from ehash.
Moreover, reqsk_timer_handler() calls another reqsk_put()
after that.
This indicates that the reqsk was missing both refcnts for
ehash and the timer itself.
Since all the syzbot reports had PREEMPT_RT enabled, the only
possible scenario is that reqsk_queue_hash_req() is preempted
after mod_timer() and before refcount_set(), and then the timer
triggered after 1s aborts the reqsk due to its listener's close().
Let's wrap mod_timer() and refcount_set() with
preempt_disable_nested() and preempt_enable_nested().
Note that inet_ehash_insert() holds the normal spin_lock()
(mutex in PREEMPT_RT), so it must be called outside of
preempt_disable_nested(), but this is fine.
The lookup path just ignores 0 sk_refcnt entries in ehash
and tries to create another reqsk, but this will fail at
inet_ehash_insert().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
futex: Fix private hash use-after-free on resize
poll_state_synchronize_rcu(mm->futex.phash.batches) is used by
futex_ref_drop() to check that a grace period has passed since the
current hash was published. This relies on batches referencing a grace
period which started after the hash pointer was assigned.
__futex_pivot_hash() sets mmph->batches before it replaces mmph->hash:
scoped_guard(rcu) {
mmph->batches = get_state_synchronize_rcu();
rcu_assign_pointer(mmph->hash, new);
}
The scoped_guard(rcu) doesn't stop new grace periods from starting, and
if one starts between those two assignments, futex_ref_drop() can move
forward while a reader still holds a pointer to the old hash.
Fix things by setting mmph->batches after assigning mmph->hash. The
scoped_guard(rcu) isn't needed, so let's drop that as well. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ip6_vti: fix incorrect tunnel matching in vti6_tnl_lookup()
In vti6_tnl_lookup(), when an exact match for a tunnel fails,
the code falls back to searching for wildcard tunnels:
- Tunnels matching the packet's local address, with any remote address
wildcard remote).
- Tunnels matching the packet's remote address, with any local address
(wildcard local).
However, vti6 stores all these different types of tunnels in the same
hash table (ip6n->tnls_r_l) prone to hash collisions.
The bug is that the fallback search loops in vti6_tnl_lookup() were
missing checks to ensure that the candidate tunnel actually has
a wildcard address. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ip6_vti: set netns_immutable on the fallback device.
john1988 and Noam Rathaus reported that vti6_init_net() does not set the
netns_immutable flag on the per-netns fallback tunnel device (ip6_vti0).
Other similar tunnel drivers (like ip6_tunnel, sit, ip6_gre, and ip_tunnel)
correctly set this flag during their fallback device initialization to
prevent them from being moved to another network namespace. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
inet: RAW sockets using IPPROTO_RAW MUST drop incoming ICMP
Yizhou Zhao reported that simply having one RAW socket on protocol
IPPROTO_RAW (255) was dangerous.
socket(AF_INET, SOCK_RAW, 255);
A malicious incoming ICMP packet can set the protocol field to 255
and match this socket, leading to FNHE cache changes.
inner = IP(src="192.168.2.1", dst="8.8.8.8", proto=255)/Raw("TEST")
pkt = IP(src="192.168.1.1", dst="192.168.2.1")/ICMP(type=3, code=4, nexthopmtu=576)/inner
"man 7 raw" states:
A protocol of IPPROTO_RAW implies enabled IP_HDRINCL and is able
to send any IP protocol that is specified in the passed header.
Receiving of all IP protocols via IPPROTO_RAW is not possible
using raw sockets.
Make sure we drop these malicious packets. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tun: free page on build_skb failure in tun_xdp_one()
When build_skb() fails in tun_xdp_one(), the function sets ret to
-ENOMEM and jumps to the out label, which returns without freeing the
page that vhost_net_build_xdp() allocated for the frame. As with the
short-frame rejection path, tun_sendmsg() discards the per-buffer error
and still returns total_len, so vhost_tx_batch() takes the success path
and never frees the page. Each build_skb() failure in a batch leaks one
page-frag chunk.
Free the page before taking the error path, matching the put_page() the
other error exits of tun_xdp_one() already perform. |

wifi: mac80211: fix slab-out-of-bounds read in ieee80211_monitor_select_queue()
ieee80211_monitor_select_queue() validates the skb length using skb->len
before dereferencing pointers into skb->data to access the 802.11 header.
However, skb->len includes data in both the linear head buffer and
non-linear fragments/pages. When AF_PACKET sends a packet large enough to
become non-linear, the 802.11 header at skb->data + len_rthdr may extend
past the linear head buffer even though skb->len appears sufficient.
This leads to a slab-out-of-bounds read when accessing hdr->frame_control,
as the kernel reads beyond the allocated skb head buffer:
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in ieee80211_monitor_select_queue+0x1ed/0x220
syzbot has hit the same issues.
Fix this by checking skb_headlen(skb) (which gives the length of the
linear data region) instead of skb->len before dereferencing skb->data
pointers. This ensures the required bytes are actually present in the
linear portion of the skb.
Apply the same fix to ieee80211_validate_radiotap_len() which has the
same class of bug: it uses skb->len to validate accesses to skb->data,
and to the corresponding checks in ieee80211_monitor_start_xmit(): for
drivers advertising NETIF_F_SG the skb is not linearized before
ndo_start_xmit, so the 802.11 header can be read past the linear
buffer there as well. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv4: validate checksum_start before completing checksum
If a packet with bad checksum metadata gets into the ipv4 stack,
skb_checksum_help can corrupt the network header and cause a bunch of
mischief.
This was discovered and reported by Paulos, and has been reporoduced
by others independently since.
We really shouldn't allow such packets in, but as a defence
in depth measure, let's also check before we complete the checksum.
A more complete validation at input is forthcoming, but needs more work. |

dm thin metadata: fix metadata snapshot consistency on commit failure
__reserve_metadata_snap() and __release_metadata_snap() modify the
superblock's held_root directly in the block_manager's buffer. If the
subsequent metadata commit fails, the held_root gets flushed to disk
through the abort_transaction path, resulting in inconsistent metadata.
Reproducer 1: __reserve_metadata_snap()
1. Create a 2 MiB metadata device and make the region after the 14th
block inaccessible, to trigger metadata commit failure in the
subsequent reserve_metadata_snap operation. The 14th block will be
the shadow destination for the index block.
dmsetup create tmeta --table "0 112 linear /dev/sdc 0
112 3984 error"
2. Create a 16 MiB thin-pool
dmsetup create tdata --table "0 32768 zero"

dmsetup create tpool --table "0 32768 thin-pool /dev/mapper/tmeta \
/dev/mapper/tdata 128 0 1 skip_block_zeroing"
3. Take a metadata snapshot to trigger metadata commit failure and
transaction abort. However, the held_root is written to disk,
breaking metadata consistency.
dmsetup message tpool 0 "reserve_metadata_snap"
thin_check v1.2.2 result:
Bad reference count for metadata block 6. Expected 2, but space map contains 1.
Bad reference count for metadata block 7. Expected 2, but space map contains 1.
Bad reference count for metadata block 13. Expected 1, but space map contains 0.
Reproducer 2: __release_metadata_snap()
1. Create a 2 MiB metadata device and make the region after the 16th
block inaccessible, to trigger metadata commit failure in the
subsequent release_metadata_snap operation. The 16th block will be
the shadow destination for the index block.
dmsetup create tmeta --table "0 128 linear /dev/sdc 0

dmsetup create tpool --table "0 32768 thin-pool /dev/mapper/tmeta \
/dev/mapper/tdata 128 0 1 skip_block_zeroing"
3. Reserve then release the metadata snapshot, to trigger metadata
commit failure and transaction abort. The held_root gets removed
from the on-disk superblock, causing inconsistent metadata.
dmsetup message tpool 0 "reserve_metadata_snap"
dmsetup message tpool 0 "release_metadata_snap"
thin_check v1.2.2 result:
Bad reference count for metadata block 6. Expected 1, but space map contains 2.
Bad reference count for metadata block 7. Expected 1, but space map contains 2.
1 metadata blocks have leaked.
Fix by deferring the held_root update to commit time.
Additionally, move the existing-snapshot check in __reserve_metadata_snap
before the shadow operation to avoid unnecessary work. In
__release_metadata_snap, clear pmd->held_root before btree deletion so
partial failure leaks blocks rather than leaving a stale reference, and
unlock the snapshot block before decrementing its refcount. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm: avoid leaking the caller's thread keyring via the table device file
The refactoring in commit a28d893eb327 ("md: port block device access to file")
accidentally causes the caller's thread keyring to be kept alive long
beyond the caller's lifetime.
As a result, "cryptsetup luksSuspend" silently fails to wipe the
LUKS volume key from memory.
In detail: "cryptsetup luksOpen" uses its supposedly ephemeral thread
keyring to pass the volume key to the kernel. dm-crypt's
crypt_set_keyring_key() copies the key material into its own
crypt_config structure and then drops its own reference to the key in
the keyring with key_put().
With this fix, restoring pre-v6.9 behavior, the copy in the thread
keyring is then promptly garbage collected, such that exactly one copy
of the volume key remains. This single copy is correctly wiped from
memory on "cryptsetup luksSuspend".
Without this fix, the thread keyring and the volume key in it remains.
This second copy is only freed on "luksClose". "luksSuspend" neither
knows about this copy nor has any way to remove it, so the key remains
recoverable from RAM after a suspend that is documented to have wiped it.
This fix should not introduce new security problems, as the code is
anyway gated by CAP_SYS_ADMIN. The device-mapper core, not the calling
task, is the legitimate owner of this long-lived file. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm_early_create: fix freeing used table on dm_resume failure
If dm_resume fails, the kernel attempts to free table with
dm_table_destroy, but the table was already instantiated with
dm_swap_table. This commit skips the call to dm_table_destroy in this
case. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm-integrity: fix a bug if the bio is out of limits
If dm_integrity_check_limits fails, the code would exit with
DM_MAPIO_KILL. However, the range would be already locked at this point,
and it wouldn't be unlocked, resulting in a deadlock. Let's move the
limit check up, so that when it exits, no resources are leaked. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm-integrity: don't increment hash_offset twice
hash_offset is already incremented in the loop "for (i = 0; i < to_copy;
i++, ts--)". Do not increment it again. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dma-fence: Make dma_fence_dedup_array() robust against 0-count input
dma_fence_dedup_array() returns 1 when called with num_fences == 0:
the for-loop body never executes, j stays at 0, and the final
`return ++j` yields 1. This contradicts both the kernel-doc ("Return:
Number of unique fences remaining in the array") and the natural
expectation that 0 input gives 0 output.
The caller __dma_fence_unwrap_merge() bails out via the
`if (count == 0 || count == 1)` fast path and so is save.
But amdgpu_userq_wait_*() could reach the dedup call with a zero local
count and dereference an uninitialized fence slot in the array.
Make the contract match the documentation by returning 0 early. This
also skips an unnecessary sort() call on an empty array. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: xen: scsiback: Free unsubmitted command instead of double-putting it
scsiback_get_pend_req() obtains a command tag and returns a vscsibk_pend
whose embedded se_cmd has only been memset to 0, so its cmd_kref is 0;
the se_cmd is initialised (kref_init() via target_init_cmd()) only
later, in scsiback_cmd_exec(), on the successful VSCSIIF_ACT_SCSI_CDB
path. The two error paths in scsiback_do_cmd_fn() taken before the
command is submitted -- a failed scsiback_gnttab_data_map() and an
unknown ring_req.act -- call
transport_generic_free_cmd(&pending_req->se_cmd, 0), which kref_put()s a
refcount of 0. That underflows it ("refcount_t: underflow;
use-after-free") and, as the release function is not run, leaks the
command tag.
Impact: a pvSCSI guest can leak every command tag of a LUN's session,
stopping the LUN, by submitting requests with a bad grant reference or
an unknown request type; under panic_on_warn the refcount underflow
panics the host.
Add a helper that just returns the tag with target_free_tag() and sends
the error response. It frees the tag while the v2p reference still pins
the session, and snapshots the response fields beforehand because
freeing the tag can let another ring reuse the pending_req slot. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: core: Fix iSCSI ISID use-after-free in REGISTER AND MOVE
core_scsi3_emulate_pro_register_and_move() maps the PERSISTENT RESERVE OUT
parameter list with transport_kmap_data_sg() and parses the destination
TransportID with target_parse_pr_out_transport_id(). For an iSCSI
TransportID (FORMAT CODE 01b), iscsi_parse_pr_out_transport_id() returns
the ISID in iport_ptr as a raw pointer into that mapped buffer.
The function then unmaps the buffer with transport_kunmap_data_sg() before
dereferencing iport_ptr in strcmp(), __core_scsi3_locate_pr_reg() and
core_scsi3_alloc_registration(). When the parameter list spans more than
one page (PARAMETER LIST LENGTH > 4096), transport_kmap_data_sg() uses
vmap() and transport_kunmap_data_sg() does vunmap(), so the kernel virtual
address backing iport_ptr is torn down and every subsequent dereference is
a use-after-free read of the unmapped region.
Keep the parameter list mapped until iport_ptr is no longer needed: drop
the early transport_kunmap_data_sg() and unmap once on the success path,
right before returning. The error paths already unmap through the existing
"if (buf) transport_kunmap_data_sg(cmd)" at the out: label, which now runs
on every post-map error exit because buf is no longer cleared early. Only
reads of the mapping happen while spinlocks are held; the map and unmap
calls remain outside any lock. The sibling caller
core_scsi3_decode_spec_i_port() already uses the buffer before unmapping it
and is left unchanged. |
