In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ip_gre: test csum_start instead of transport header
GRE with TUNNEL_CSUM will apply local checksum offload on
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL packets.
ipgre_xmit must validate csum_start after an optional skb_pull,
else lco_csum may trigger an overflow. The original check was
if (csum && skb_checksum_start(skb) < skb->data)
return -EINVAL;
This had false positives when skb_checksum_start is undefined:
when ip_summed is not CHECKSUM_PARTIAL. A discussed refinement
was straightforward
if (csum && skb->ip_summed == CHECKSUM_PARTIAL &&
skb_checksum_start(skb) < skb->data)
return -EINVAL;
But was eventually revised more thoroughly:
- restrict the check to the only branch where needed, in an
uncommon GRE path that uses header_ops and calls skb_pull.
- test skb_transport_header, which is set along with csum_start
in skb_partial_csum_set in the normal header_ops datapath.
Turns out skbs can arrive in this branch without the transport
header set, e.g., through BPF redirection.
Revise the check back to check csum_start directly, and only if
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL. Do leave the check in the updated location.
Check field regardless of whether TUNNEL_CSUM is configured.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ipv6: unexport __init-annotated seg6_hmac_init()
EXPORT_SYMBOL and __init is a bad combination because the .init.text
section is freed up after the initialization. Hence, modules cannot
use symbols annotated __init. The access to a freed symbol may end up
with kernel panic.
modpost used to detect it, but it has been broken for a decade.
Recently, I fixed modpost so it started to warn it again, then this
showed up in linux-next builds.
There are two ways to fix it:
- Remove __init
- Remove EXPORT_SYMBOL
I chose the latter for this case because the caller (net/ipv6/seg6.c)
and the callee (net/ipv6/seg6_hmac.c) belong to the same module.
It seems an internal function call in ipv6.ko.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: CT: Fix cleanup of CT before cleanup of TC ct rules
CT cleanup assumes that all tc rules were deleted first, and so
is free to delete the CT shared resources (e.g the dr_action
fwd_action which is shared for all tuples). But currently for
uplink, this is happens in reverse, causing the below trace.
CT cleanup is called from:
mlx5e_cleanup_rep_tx()->mlx5e_cleanup_uplink_rep_tx()->
mlx5e_rep_tc_cleanup()->mlx5e_tc_esw_cleanup()->
mlx5_tc_ct_clean()
Only afterwards, tc cleanup is called from:
mlx5e_cleanup_rep_tx()->mlx5e_tc_ht_cleanup()
which would have deleted all the tc ct rules, and so delete
all the offloaded tuples.
Fix this reversing the order of init and on cleanup, which
will result in tc cleanup then ct cleanup.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: dlmfs: fix error handling of user_dlm_destroy_lock
When user_dlm_destroy_lock failed, it didn't clean up the flags it set
before exit. For USER_LOCK_IN_TEARDOWN, if this function fails because of
lock is still in used, next time when unlink invokes this function, it
will return succeed, and then unlink will remove inode and dentry if lock
is not in used(file closed), but the dlm lock is still linked in dlm lock
resource, then when bast come in, it will trigger a panic due to
user-after-free. See the following panic call trace. To fix this,
USER_LOCK_IN_TEARDOWN should be reverted if fail. And also error should
be returned if USER_LOCK_IN_TEARDOWN is set to let user know that unlink
fail.
For the case of ocfs2_dlm_unlock failure, besides USER_LOCK_IN_TEARDOWN,
USER_LOCK_BUSY is also required to be cleared. Even though spin lock is
released in between, but USER_LOCK_IN_TEARDOWN is still set, for
USER_LOCK_BUSY, if before every place that waits on this flag,
USER_LOCK_IN_TEARDOWN is checked to bail out, that will make sure no flow
waits on the busy flag set by user_dlm_destroy_lock(), then we can
simplely revert USER_LOCK_BUSY when ocfs2_dlm_unlock fails. Fix
user_dlm_cluster_lock() which is the only function not following this.

mm/huge_memory: Fix xarray node memory leak
If xas_split_alloc() fails to allocate the necessary nodes to complete the
xarray entry split, it sets the xa_state to -ENOMEM, which xas_nomem()
then interprets as "Please allocate more memory", not as "Please free
any unnecessary memory" (which was the intended outcome). It's confusing
to use xas_nomem() to free memory in this context, so call xas_destroy()
instead.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix UAF due to race between btf_try_get_module and load_module
While working on code to populate kfunc BTF ID sets for module BTF from
its initcall, I noticed that by the time the initcall is invoked, the
module BTF can already be seen by userspace (and the BPF verifier). The
existing btf_try_get_module calls try_module_get which only fails if
mod->state == MODULE_STATE_GOING, i.e. it can increment module reference
when module initcall is happening in parallel.
Currently, BTF parsing happens from MODULE_STATE_COMING notifier
callback. At this point, the module initcalls have not been invoked.
The notifier callback parses and prepares the module BTF, allocates an
ID, which publishes it to userspace, and then adds it to the btf_modules
list allowing the kernel to invoke btf_try_get_module for the BTF.
However, at this point, the module has not been fully initialized (i.e.
its initcalls have not finished). The code in module.c can still fail
and free the module, without caring for other users. However, nothing
stops btf_try_get_module from succeeding between the state transition
from MODULE_STATE_COMING to MODULE_STATE_LIVE.
This leads to a use-after-free issue when BPF program loads
successfully in the state transition, load_module's do_init_module call
fails and frees the module, and BPF program fd on close calls module_put
for the freed module. Future patch has test case to verify we don't
regress in this area in future.
There are multiple points after prepare_coming_module (in load_module)
where failure can occur and module loading can return error. We
illustrate and test for the race using the last point where it can
practically occur (in module __init function).
An illustration of the race:
CPU 0 CPU 1
load_module
notifier_call(MODULE_STATE_COMING)
btf_parse_module
btf_alloc_id // Published to userspace
list_add(&btf_mod->list, btf_modules)
mod->init(...)
... ^
bpf_check |
check_pseudo_btf_id |
btf_try_get_module |
returns true | ...
... | module __init in progress
return prog_fd | ...
... V
if (ret < 0)
free_module(mod)
...
close(prog_fd)
...
bpf_prog_free_deferred
module_put(used_btf.mod) // use-after-free
We fix this issue by setting a flag BTF_MODULE_F_LIVE, from the notifier
callback when MODULE_STATE_LIVE state is reached for the module, so that
we return NULL from btf_try_get_module for modules that are not fully
formed. Since try_module_get already checks that module is not in
MODULE_STATE_GOING state, and that is the only transition a live module
can make before being removed from btf_modules list, this is enough to
close the race and prevent the bug.
A later selftest patch crafts the race condition artifically to verify
that it has been fixed, and that verifier fails to load program (with
ENXIO).
Lastly, a couple of comments:
1. Even if this race didn't exist, it seems more appropriate to only
access resources (ksyms and kfuncs) of a fully formed module which
has been initialized completely.
2. This patch was born out of need for synchronization against module
initcall for the next patch, so it is needed for correctness even
without the aforementioned race condition. The BTF resources
initialized by module initcall are set up once and then only looked
up, so just waiting until the initcall has finished ensures correct
behavior.

On a system like this:

In this scenario:

When sw1p4 would leave a bridge, dsa_port_vlan_filtering would be

The kasan error is triggered with an illegal BTF like below:
type 0: void
type 1: int
type 2: decl_tag to func type 3
type 3: func to func_proto type 8
The total number of types is 4 and the type 3 is illegal
since its func_proto type is out of range.
Currently, the target type of decl_tag can be struct/union, var or func.
Both struct/union and var implemented their own 'resolve' callback functions
and hence handled properly in kernel.
But func type doesn't have 'resolve' callback function. When
btf_decl_tag_resolve() tries to check func type, it tries to get
vlen of its func_proto type, which triggered the above kasan error.
To fix the issue, btf_decl_tag_resolve() needs to do btf_func_check()
before trying to accessing func_proto type.
In the current implementation, func type is checked with
btf_func_check() in the main checking function btf_check_all_types().
To fix the above kasan issue, let us implement 'resolve' callback
func type properly. The 'resolve' callback will be also called
in btf_check_all_types() for func types.

Since all read requests are performed via asix_read_cmd() let's catch

So, this patch adds sanity check inside asix_read_cmd(), that simply
checks if bytes read are not less, than was requested and adds missing

vfio/pci: fix memory leak during D3hot to D0 transition
If 'vfio_pci_core_device::needs_pm_restore' is set (PCI device does
not have No_Soft_Reset bit set in its PMCSR config register), then
the current PCI state will be saved locally in
'vfio_pci_core_device::pm_save' during D0->D3hot transition and same
will be restored back during D3hot->D0 transition.
For saving the PCI state locally, pci_store_saved_state() is being
used and the pci_load_and_free_saved_state() will free the allocated
memory.
But for reset related IOCTLs, vfio driver calls PCI reset-related
API's which will internally change the PCI power state back to D0. So,
when the guest resumes, then it will get the current state as D0 and it
will skip the call to vfio_pci_set_power_state() for changing the
power state to D0 explicitly. In this case, the memory pointed by
'pm_save' will never be freed. In a malicious sequence, the state changing
to D3hot followed by VFIO_DEVICE_RESET/VFIO_DEVICE_PCI_HOT_RESET can be
run in a loop and it can cause an OOM situation.
This patch frees the earlier allocated memory first before overwriting
'pm_save' to prevent the mentioned memory leak.

Fix a race in the xsk socket teardown code that can lead to a NULL pointer
dereference splat. The current xsk unbind code in xsk_unbind_dev() starts by
setting xs->state to XSK_UNBOUND, sets xs->dev to NULL and then waits for any
NAPI processing to terminate using synchronize_net(). After that, the release
code starts to tear down the socket state and free allocated memory.

There are two problems with the current code. First, setting xs->dev to NULL
before waiting for all users to stop using the socket is not correct. The
entry to the data plane functions xsk_poll(), xsk_sendmsg(), and xsk_recvmsg()
are all guarded by a test that xs->state is in the state XSK_BOUND and if not,
it returns right away. But one process might have passed this test but still
have not gotten to the point in which it uses xs->dev in the code. In this
interim, a second process executing xsk_unbind_dev() might have set xs->dev to
NULL which will lead to a crash for the first process. The solution here is
just to get rid of this NULL assignment since it is not used anymore. Before
commit 42fddcc7c64b ("xsk: use state member for socket synchronization"),
xs->dev was the gatekeeper to admit processes into the data plane functions,
but it was replaced with the state variable xs->state in the aforementioned
commit.
The second problem is that synchronize_net() does not wait for any process in
xsk_poll(), xsk_sendmsg(), or xsk_recvmsg() to complete, which means that the
state they rely on might be cleaned up prematurely. This can happen when the
notifier gets called (at driver unload for example) as it uses xsk_unbind_dev().
Solve this by extending the RCU critical region from just the ndo_xsk_wakeup
to the whole functions mentioned above, so that both the test of xs->state ==
XSK_BOUND and the last use of any member of xs is covered by the RCU critical
section. This will guarantee that when synchronize_net() completes, there will
be no processes left executing xsk_poll(), xsk_sendmsg(), or xsk_recvmsg() and
state can be cleaned up safely. Note that we need to drop the RCU lock for the
skb xmit path as it uses functions that might sleep. Due to this, we have to
retest the xs->state after we grab the mutex that protects the skb xmit code
from, among a number of things, an xsk_unbind_dev() being executed from the
notifier at the same time.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/64s: Don't use DSISR for SLB faults
Since commit 46ddcb3950a2 ("powerpc/mm: Show if a bad page fault on data
is read or write.") we use page_fault_is_write(regs->dsisr) in
__bad_page_fault() to determine if the fault is for a read or write, and
change the message printed accordingly.
But SLB faults, aka Data Segment Interrupts, don't set DSISR (Data
Storage Interrupt Status Register) to a useful value. All ISA versions
from v2.03 through v3.1 specify that the Data Segment Interrupt sets
DSISR "to an undefined value". As far as I can see there's no mention of
SLB faults setting DSISR in any BookIV content either.
This manifests as accesses that should be a read being incorrectly
reported as writes, for example, using the xmon "dump" command:
0:mon> d 0x5deadbeef0000000
5deadbeef0000000
[359526.415354][ C6] BUG: Unable to handle kernel data access on write at 0x5deadbeef0000000

pc: c00000000010a300: mread+0x90/0x190
If we disassemble the PC, we see a load instruction:
0:mon> di c00000000010a300
c00000000010a300 89490000 lbz r10,0(r9)
We can also see in exceptions-64s.S that the data_access_slb block
doesn't set IDSISR=1, which means it doesn't load DSISR into pt_regs. So
the value we're using to determine if the fault is a read/write is some
stale value in pt_regs from a previous page fault.
Rework the printing logic to separate the SLB fault case out, and only
print read/write in the cases where we can determine it.
The result looks like eg:
0:mon> d 0x5deadbeef0000000

pgd page is freed by generic implementation pgd_free() since commit
f9cb654cb550 ("asm-generic: pgalloc: provide generic pgd_free()"),
however, there are scenarios that the system uses more than one page as
the pgd table, in such cases the generic implementation pgd_free() won't
be applicable anymore. For example, when PAGE_SIZE_4KB is enabled and
MIPS_VA_BITS_48 is not enabled in a 64bit system, the macro "PGD_ORDER"
will be set as "1", which will cause allocating two pages as the pgd
table. Well, at the same time, the generic implementation pgd_free()
just free one pgd page, which will result in the memory leak.
The memory leak can be easily detected by executing shell command:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, sockmap: Fix more uncharged while msg has more_data
In tcp_bpf_send_verdict(), if msg has more data after
tcp_bpf_sendmsg_redir():
tcp_bpf_send_verdict()
tosend = msg->sg.size //msg->sg.size = 22220
case __SK_REDIRECT:
sk_msg_return() //uncharged msg->sg.size(22220) sk->sk_forward_alloc
tcp_bpf_sendmsg_redir() //after tcp_bpf_sendmsg_redir, msg->sg.size=11000
goto more_data;
tosend = msg->sg.size //msg->sg.size = 11000
case __SK_REDIRECT:
sk_msg_return() //uncharged msg->sg.size(11000) to sk->sk_forward_alloc
The msg->sg.size(11000) has been uncharged twice, to fix we can charge the
remaining msg->sg.size before goto more data.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Fix double free during GPU reset on DC streams
[Why]
The issue only occurs during the GPU reset code path.
We first backup the current state prior to commiting 0 streams
internally from DM to DC. This state backup contains valid link
encoder assignments.
DC will clear the link encoder assignments as part of current state
(but not the backup, since it was a copied before the commit) and
free the extra stream reference it held.
DC requires that the link encoder assignments remain cleared/invalid
prior to commiting. Since the backup still has valid assignments we
call the interface post reset to clear them. This routine also
releases the extra reference that the link encoder interface held -
resulting in a double free (and eventually a NULL pointer dereference).
[How]
We'll have to do a full DC commit anyway after GPU reset because
the stream count previously went to 0.
We don't need to retain the assignment that we had backed up, so
just copy off of the now clean current state assignment after the
reset has occcurred with the new link_enc_cfg_copy() interface.

hu->serdev can be NULL and we should not blindly pass &serdev->dev

The immediate cause of the crash is the access of tx_scrq in the following
snippet during a reset, where the tx_scrq can be either NULL or an address
that will soon be invalid:
ibmvnic_xmit()
{
...
tx_scrq = adapter->tx_scrq[queue_num];
txq = netdev_get_tx_queue(netdev, queue_num);
ind_bufp = &tx_scrq->ind_buf;
if (test_bit(0, &adapter->resetting)) {
...
}
But beyond that, the call to ibmvnic_xmit() itself is not safe during a
reset and the reset path attempts to avoid this by stopping the queue in
ibmvnic_cleanup(). However just after the queue was stopped, an in-flight
ibmvnic_complete_tx() could have restarted the queue even as the reset is
progressing.
Since the queue was restarted we could get a call to ibmvnic_xmit() which
can then access the bad tx_scrq (or other fields).
We cannot however simply have ibmvnic_complete_tx() check the ->resetting
bit and skip starting the queue. This can race at the "back-end" of a good
reset which just restarted the queue but has not cleared the ->resetting
bit yet. If we skip restarting the queue due to ->resetting being true,
the queue would remain stopped indefinitely potentially leading to transmit
timeouts.
IOW ->resetting is too broad for this purpose. Instead use a new flag
that indicates whether or not the queues are active. Only the open/
reset paths control when the queues are active. ibmvnic_complete_tx()
and others wake up the queue only if the queue is marked active.
So we will have:
A. reset/open thread in ibmvnic_cleanup() and __ibmvnic_open()
->resetting = true
->tx_queues_active = false
disable tx queues
...
->tx_queues_active = true
start tx queues
B. Tx interrupt in ibmvnic_complete_tx():
if (->tx_queues_active)
netif_wake_subqueue();
To ensure that ->tx_queues_active and state of the queues are consistent,
we need a lock which:
- must also be taken in the interrupt path (ibmvnic_complete_tx())
- shared across the multiple

[ 14.339176] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x30
That happened because hdev->power_on is already called before
sdio_set_drvdata which btmtksdio_interrupt handler relies on is not
properly set up.
The details are shown as the below: hci_register_dev would run
queue_work(hdev->req_workqueue, &hdev->power_on) as WQ_HIGHPRI
workqueue_struct to complete the power-on sequeunce and thus hci_power_on
may run before sdio_set_drvdata is done in btmtksdio_probe.
The hci_dev_do_open in hci_power_on would initialize the device and enable
the interrupt and thus it is possible that btmtksdio_interrupt is being
called right before sdio_set_drvdata is filled out.
When btmtksdio_interrupt is being called and sdio_set_drvdata is not filled
, the kernel oops is going to happen because btmtksdio_interrupt access an
uninitialized pointer.
