| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: ISO: hold sk properly in iso_conn_ready
sk deref in iso_conn_ready must be done either under conn->lock, or
holding a refcount, to avoid concurrent close. conn->sk is currently
accessed without either:
[Task 1] [Task 2]
iso_sock_release
iso_conn_ready
sk = conn->sk
lock_sock(sk)
conn->sk = NULL
lock_sock(sk)
release_sock(sk)
iso_sock_kill(sk)
UAF on sk deref
Fix possible UAF by holding sk refcount in iso_conn_ready(). Also
recheck after lock_sock that the socket is still valid. Adjust locking
so conn->sk is cleared only under lock_sock. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_sync: hold conn in hci_connect_pa_sync() callback
There is theoretical UAF if the conn is freed while the hci_sync task is
running.
Hold refcount to avoid that. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/iommufd: Fix IOPF group ownership UAF
iopf_group_alloc() links each last-page IOPF group into the generic IOPF
pending list before invoking the domain fault handler.
iommufd_fault_iopf_handler() also queued an accepted group in the
IOMMUFD deliver list without removing it from the generic pending list.
When detach or HWPT replacement drops the device's IOPF reference count
to zero, an IOMMU driver may call iopf_queue_remove_device(). That
function responds to and frees groups through the generic pending list
without removing the same groups from IOMMUFD's deliver list or response
xarray. A later read, response, or cleanup can then access the freed
group and cause a UAF.
Fix this by dequeuing an accepted group from the generic pending list
before IOMMUFD queues it for userspace response.
Make iopf_group_response() send a response regardless of pending-list
membership, so the dequeued group can still be completed by IOMMUFD. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/siw: Fix endpoint/socket association handling
Disassociating a socket from an endpoint via siw_socket_disassoc() may
release the last reference on that endpoint and free it. Therefore, don't
clear the endpoints socket pointer after calling that function, but
within.
This fixes a:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in siw_cm_work_handler (drivers/infiniband/sw/siw/siw_cm.c:1053 drivers/infiniband/sw/siw/siw_cm.c:1075)
which occurred after processing a malformed MPA request during connection
establishment, causing the new endpoint to be closed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_core: Fix UAF in hci_unregister_dev()
hci_unregister_dev() does not disable cmd_timer and ncmd_timer
before the hci_dev structure is freed. If a timeout fires
during device teardown, the callback dereferences freed memory
(including the hdev->reset function pointer), leading to a
use-after-free.
Add disable_delayed_work_sync() calls alongside the existing
disable_work_sync() calls to ensure both timers are fully
quiesced before teardown proceeds. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/bnxt_re: Free SRQ toggle page after firmware teardown
Free the toggle page only after firmware teardown completes so that
an NQ interrupt arriving during bnxt_qplib_destroy_srq() won't write
the toggle values to an already-freed page. Move free_page() after
bnxt_qplib_destroy_srq(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tipc: fix UAF in cleanup_bearer() due to premature dst_cache_destroy()
TIPC UDP media bearer teardown calls dst_cache_destroy() on its
replicast caches before calling synchronize_net() to wait for
concurrent RCU readers (transmitters) to finish:
static void cleanup_bearer(struct work_struct *work)
{
...
list_for_each_entry_safe(rcast, tmp, &ub->rcast.list, list) {
dst_cache_destroy(&rcast->dst_cache);
list_del_rcu(&rcast->list);
kfree_rcu(rcast, rcu);
}
...
dst_cache_destroy(&ub->rcast.dst_cache);
udp_tunnel_sock_release(ub->sk);
synchronize_net();
...
}
This is highly buggy because dst_cache_destroy() immediately frees the
per-CPU cache memory (free_percpu()) and releases the cached dst
entries without any synchronization.
If a concurrent transmitter (e.g., tipc_udp_xmit()) is running on another
CPU under RCU protection, it can call dst_cache_get() concurrently,
leading to:
1. Use-After-Free on the per-CPU cache pointer itself (crash).
2. "rcuref - imbalanced put()" warning if it attempts to release a
dst that was concurrently released by dst_cache_destroy().
Furthermore, calling kfree(ub) immediately after synchronize_net() without
closing the socket first (or waiting after closing it) leaves a window
where a concurrent receiver (tipc_udp_recv()) could start after
synchronize_net(), access ub, and suffer a UAF when kfree(ub) runs.
To fix this, we must defer dst_cache_destroy() and kfree(ub) until after
we have ensured that no more readers can see the bearer/socket and all
existing readers have finished:
1. Defer rcast entry destruction (both dst_cache_destroy() and kfree())
to an RCU callback using call_rcu_hurry().
Using call_rcu_hurry() ensures the dst entries are released quickly.
2. Release the bearer socket using udp_tunnel_sock_release() (stops
new receive readers).
3. Call synchronize_net() to wait for all outstanding RCU readers
(both transmit and receive) to finish.
4. Now that it is safe, call dst_cache_destroy() on the main bearer
cache, and free ub.
Note: 3) and 4) can be changed later in net-next to also use
call_rcu_hurry() and get rid of the synchronize_net() latency. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/handshake: Drain pending requests at net namespace exit
The arguments to list_splice_init() in handshake_net_exit() are
reversed. The call moves the local empty "requests" list onto
hn->hn_requests, leaving the local list empty, so the subsequent
drain loop runs zero iterations. Pending handshake requests that
had not yet been accepted are not torn down when the net namespace
is destroyed; each one keeps a reference on a socket file and on
the handshake_req allocation.
Pass the source and destination in the documented order
(list_splice_init(list, head) moves list onto head) so the pending
list is transferred to the local scratch list and drained through
handshake_complete().
Fixing the splice direction exposes a list-corruption race. After
the splice each req->hr_list still has non-empty link pointers,
threading the stack-local scratch list rather than hn_requests.
A concurrent handshake_req_cancel() -- for example, from sunrpc's
TLS timeout on a kernel socket whose netns reference was not
taken -- finds the request through the rhashtable, calls
remove_pending(), and sees !list_empty(&req->hr_list).
__remove_pending_locked() then list_del_init()s an entry off the
scratch list while the drain iterates, corrupting it. The same
call arriving after the drain loop has run list_del() on an
entry hits LIST_POISON instead.
Have remove_pending() check HANDSHAKE_F_NET_DRAINING under
hn_lock and report not-found when drain is in progress. The
drain has already taken ownership; handshake_complete()'s existing
test_and_set on HANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED still arbitrates
between drain and cancel for who calls the consumer's hp_done. Use
list_del_init() rather than list_del() in the drain so req->hr_list
does not carry LIST_POISON after drain releases the entry.
The DRAINING guard in remove_pending() makes cancel return false,
but cancel still falls through to test_and_set_bit on
HANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED and drops the request's hr_file reference.
Without another pin, if that is the last reference, sk_destruct frees
the request while it is still linked on the drain loop's local list.
Pin each request's hr_file under hn_lock before releasing the list,
and drop that drain pin after the loop finishes with the request. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bna: prevent IOC timer rearm during teardown
bna: prevent IOC timer rearm during teardown
bnad_pci_remove() and the probe disable_ioceth path call
timer_delete_sync() for ioc_timer, sem_timer and hb_timer, but not for
iocpf_timer. bnad_iocpf_timeout() then takes bnad->bna_lock after
free_netdev() has freed the struct bnad.
Deleting iocpf_timer last does not fix this. sem_timer and
iocpf_timer rearm each other: bnad_iocpf_sem_timeout() can arm
iocpf_timer, and bnad_iocpf_timeout() arms sem_timer from
bfa_ioc_hw_sem_get() when the semaphore is busy.
timer_delete_sync() only waits out its own callback.
bnad_ioceth_disable() can time out and leave that callback live.
Shut all four IOC timers down with timer_shutdown_sync() on both
paths, so a later mod_timer() is ignored.
This issue was identified during our ongoing static-analysis research
while reviewing kernel code. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/vaddr: avoid hw-driven pte updates during damon_hugetlb_mkold()
damon_hugetlb_mkold() reads the page table entry into a local variable,
unsets the accessed bit in the variable, and updates the page table entry
with the updated variable value. If hardware updates the same page table
entry in parallel, the hw updates could be lost. For example,
hardware-updated dirty bits might be lost.
Avoid the parallel updates by clearing the page table entry when reading
it together, using huge_ptep_get_and_clear(). If a parallel write to the
memory is made after the clearing, the hw will see the page table entry is
cleared, trigger page fault and wait until it is handled. The page fault
handling will wait for damon_hugetlb_mkold() due to the page table lock.
Because hugetlbfs is an in-memory file system and hugetlb pages cannot be
reclaimed, no critical issue is expected to my best knowledge. But
definitely this is a nasty bug that should be fixed sooner rather than
later.
The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/hugetlb: preserve mremap address delta when skipping page tables
move_hugetlb_page_tables() optimizes mremap() by advancing to the last
entry in the page table when the source page table does not exist, either
initially or after unsharing a PMD table. The common loop increment then
steps to the first entry in the next page table.
However, the code advances both the source and destination addresses to
the last entries in their respective page tables, which is wrong. The
destination address must be advanced only by the same amount as the source
address.
If the source and destination offsets within their page tables differ, the
destination address can be advanced too far, causing follow-up issues.
Fix this by advancing the destination address by the source advance
distance.
With a reproducer, we were able to trigger a kernel panic on x86-64. With
this fix in place, we can no longer reproduce the issue. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: take commit root semaphore when iterating in mark_block_group_to_copy()
mark_block_group_to_copy() iterates over the commit root with
skip_locking=true. A concurrent transaction commit can swap and free
the commit root during iteration, causing use-after-free when
accessing extent buffers.
Fix it by using path->need_commit_sem to protect the commit root search. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (pwm-fan) Stop RPM timer before freeing tach data
sample_timer() rearms the RPM timer and accesses the devm-managed
ctx->tachs and ctx->pulses_per_revolution arrays. The cleanup action
which stops the timer is registered before those arrays are allocated.
Since devres releases entries in reverse order, driver detach can free
the arrays before pwm_fan_cleanup() shuts down the timer. A timer expiry
in that window accesses the freed tach data.
With a KASAN kernel, a test-only kprobe delayed entry to
pwm_fan_cleanup() while normal sysfs unbind ran. Each of three runs
reported three four-byte reads and two four-byte writes in sample_timer()
after its backing devm allocations had been freed. The helper did not
invoke the timer callback, cleanup actions or free functions.
With the fix, three matching unbind runs completed without KASAN, BUG,
WARNING, Oops or panic. Instrumentation confirmed that timer retirement
completed before the first timer backing allocation was released.
Split timer retirement from the power cleanup and register its devres
action after the timer backing data and IRQ actions are installed. This
preserves the early power rollback action while ensuring the timer is
retired before its backing data is released. Use timer_shutdown_sync()
because the callback can rearm itself. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: wcn36xx: Fix potential use-after-free in TX ack timer teardown
wcn36xx_dxe_deinit() tears down the TX ack timer with timer_delete(),
which only dequeues the timer and does not wait for a callback that is
already executing; the preceding free_irq() calls synchronize the
interrupt handlers only. The callback, wcn36xx_dxe_tx_timer(), can
therefore be running past the teardown and use the wcn freed along
with the ieee80211_hw in wcn36xx_remove(): it takes wcn->dxe_lock,
reads wcn->tx_ack_skb and passes wcn->hw to
ieee80211_tx_status_irqsafe().
Fix this by using timer_shutdown_sync(), which waits for a running
callback and also prevents the timer from being rearmed again. The
timer is set up again by wcn36xx_dxe_init() on the next start, so the
start/stop cycle is unaffected.
This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix use-after-free of iface in cifs_try_adding_channels()
cifs_try_adding_channels() iterates ses->iface_list with
list_for_each_entry_safe_from(), which captures the next entry
(niface) under iface_lock. The loop body then drops iface_lock for
the whole duration of cifs_ses_add_channel().
A concurrent interface refresh (SMB3_request_interfaces() ->
parse_server_interfaces()) marks all ifaces inactive and removes and
frees any that are not re-advertised via list_del() + kref_put(),
where release_iface() is a bare kfree(). Since niface typically has
no channel holding a reference, the list reference is its last and it
can be freed inside the unlocked window. On continue, the iterator
advance step then dereferences niface->iface_head.next, and the loop
body reads iface->rdma_capable/is_active, both on freed memory.
Fix this by never keeping an unreferenced list pointer across the
unlocked window. Each channel attempt now re-scans the list from the
head under iface_lock, takes a kref on the selected candidate, and
passes only that referenced candidate to cifs_ses_add_channel().
weight_fulfilled still tracks selection progress, so restarting the
scan preserves the original weighted distribution and the
weight_fulfilled-before-kref_put ordering on the failure path.
Add a per-pass attempts cap so a flapping interface refresh cannot
keep the inner loop spinning within a single tries increment. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Check ancestor frames for rbtree callbacks
bpf_rbtree_add() invokes its comparator while the caller holds the root
lock. The native insertion code retains raw parent and link pointers across
the callback, so the verifier prohibits unlocking, consuming tree nodes,
or changing RCU state from that callback.
in_rbtree_lock_required_cb() only checks the innermost verifier frame.
Static subprogram calls are permitted while holding a spin lock, and such a
call pushes a frame without in_callback_fn set. Consequently, all callback
restrictions disappear in the nested frame. The subprogram can unlock the
tree, remove and drop the node being compared, then relock. Native insertion
resumes with the stale parent pointer and links freed memory into the tree.
Walk all active frames for the rbtree callback instead. Benign static
subprograms remain permitted, while callback restrictions follow execution
into nested frames. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Preserve inner map identity in callback frames
Callback frame constructors initialize map-typed argument registers with
__mark_reg_known_zero() and then restore map_ptr. This clears map_uid,
which is the only field distinguishing inner maps that share an
inner_map_meta template.
When a timer callback invokes bpf_for_each_map_elem() on a second inner
map, both the saved first map and the second map value can reach the nested
callback as the same template with map_uid zero. bpf_timer_init() then
accepts pairing the timer from the second map with the first map.
The runtime records the first map in the timer without taking a reference.
Freeing that map does not find the timer stored in the second map, so a
later timer callback dereferences the freed map.
Copy map_uid from the same caller register as map_ptr when constructing
for-each, timer/workqueue, and task-work callback arguments. The existing
identity check can then reject mismatched inner maps while allowing a
callback value to be paired with its actual map. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vhost-vdpa: protect config_ctx from being freed under the config callback
vhost_vdpa_config_cb() loads v->config_ctx and signals it without taking
a reference and without holding any lock:
struct eventfd_ctx *config_ctx = v->config_ctx;
if (config_ctx)
eventfd_signal(config_ctx);
VHOST_VDPA_SET_CONFIG_CALL replaces that field and drops what is normally
the last reference to the old context:
swap(ctx, v->config_ctx);
if (ctx)
eventfd_ctx_put(ctx);
eventfd_ctx_put() drops the last kref and frees the context immediately,
with no RCU grace period, so a callback that has already loaded the
pointer goes on to dereference freed memory. The two sides share no
lock: the ioctl runs under vhost_dev.mutex, while the parent invokes the
callback from its own interrupt or workqueue context.
This is not the reopen refcount underflow fixed by commit f6bbf0010ba0
("vhost-vdpa: fix use-after-free of v->config_ctx"), which was about
vhost_vdpa_config_put() leaving a stale pointer behind. Here the pointer
is maintained correctly and it is the read side that is unprotected.
With VDUSE as the parent this is reachable from userspace with access to
/dev/vduse (root by default). VDUSE_DEV_INJECT_CONFIG_IRQ queues
dev->inject, and vduse_dev_irq_inject() runs the callback under VDUSE's
own dev->irq_lock, which vhost does not hold. vduse_dev_reset() does
flush_work(&dev->inject), but VHOST_VDPA_SET_CONFIG_CALL never goes
through reset, so an inject already in flight is not waited for. A
process that injects config interrupts on the VDUSE fd while another
thread swaps the call fd on the vhost-vdpa fd hits it in seconds:

Add a spinlock covering every access to config_ctx, so the callback
either signals a context that is still alive or observes NULL, and the
put happens only once no callback can reach the old value.
Clearing the parent's callback before the put would not be enough: of the
in-tree set_config_cb() implementations only VDUSE takes a lock, the rest
store the pointer unlocked, so that would not order against an in-flight
invocation. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vhost: invalidate vring access on IOTLB transitions
When VIRTIO_F_ACCESS_PLATFORM changes, cached vring pointers and IOTLB
metadata are interpreted in a different address space. Keeping them
across the transition can leave stale ring mappings in use.
Clearing d->iotlb before taking the VQ locks also lets a worker observe
a transient NULL d->iotlb and fall back to d->umem while translating a
descriptor.
Add a common vhost_clear_device_iotlb() helper for vhost-net and
vhost-vsock. Take all VQ mutexes in index order before dropping the
device-wide IOTLB, invalidate each VQ's cached ring access and metadata,
clear pending IOTLB messages, and free the old table after the handoff.
This serializes the transition with workers and prevents mixed address
space mappings.
On the first direct-to-IOTLB transition, invalidate the cached vring
addresses. When an existing device IOTLB is replaced, preserve the
GIOVA ring addresses and reset only the metadata cache. After clearing
ACCESS_PLATFORM, userspace must configure the vring addresses for the
new address mode.
vhost_vq_invalidate_access() clears desc, avail, and used together.
Treat the VQ as invalidated only when all three are NULL, since a single
GIOVA address may legitimately be zero. |

eth: ice: don't dereference pointers from TP_printk()
After forwarding net-next during the v7.3 merge window we started
seeing:
TRACE EVENT ERROR: Event ice_tx_dim_work has double dereference in TP_printk: REC->q_vector->tx.tx_ring->q_index
WARNING: kernel/trace/trace_events.c:420 at test_double_dereference.cold+0x39/0x4b
this is due to extra checks added in tracing subsystem in

Printing happens long after the event was recorded, by which point
the pointers may be invalid (the ring or the dim instance).
