In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net_sched: skbprio: Remove overly strict queue assertions
In the current implementation, skbprio enqueue/dequeue contains an assertion
that fails under certain conditions when SKBPRIO is used as a child qdisc under
TBF with specific parameters. The failure occurs because TBF sometimes peeks at
packets in the child qdisc without actually dequeuing them when tokens are
unavailable.
This peek operation creates a discrepancy between the parent and child qdisc
queue length counters. When TBF later receives a high-priority packet,
SKBPRIO's queue length may show a different value than what's reflected in its
internal priority queue tracking, triggering the assertion.
The fix removes this overly strict assertions in SKBPRIO, they are not
necessary at all.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/mediatek: dp: drm_err => dev_err in HPD path to avoid NULL ptr
The function mtk_dp_wait_hpd_asserted() may be called before the
`mtk_dp->drm_dev` pointer is assigned in mtk_dp_bridge_attach().
Specifically it can be called via this callpath:
- mtk_edp_wait_hpd_asserted
- [panel probe]
- dp_aux_ep_probe
Using "drm" level prints anywhere in this callpath causes a NULL
pointer dereference. Change the error message directly in
mtk_dp_wait_hpd_asserted() to dev_err() to avoid this. Also change the
error messages in mtk_dp_parse_capabilities(), which is called by
mtk_dp_wait_hpd_asserted().
While touching these prints, also add the error code to them to make
future debugging easier.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
remoteproc: core: Clear table_sz when rproc_shutdown
There is case as below could trigger kernel dump:
Use U-Boot to start remote processor(rproc) with resource table
published to a fixed address by rproc. After Kernel boots up,
stop the rproc, load a new firmware which doesn't have resource table
,and start rproc.
When starting rproc with a firmware not have resource table,
`memcpy(loaded_table, rproc->cached_table, rproc->table_sz)` will
trigger dump, because rproc->cache_table is set to NULL during the last
stop operation, but rproc->table_sz is still valid.
This issue is found on i.MX8MP and i.MX9.

x86/resctrl: Fix allocation of cleanest CLOSID on platforms with no monitors
Commit
6eac36bb9eb0 ("x86/resctrl: Allocate the cleanest CLOSID by searching closid_num_dirty_rmid")
added logic that causes resctrl to search for the CLOSID with the fewest dirty
cache lines when creating a new control group, if requested by the arch code.
This depends on the values read from the llc_occupancy counters. The logic is
applicable to architectures where the CLOSID effectively forms part of the
monitoring identifier and so do not allow complete freedom to choose an unused
monitoring identifier for a given CLOSID.
This support missed that some platforms may not have these counters. This
causes a NULL pointer dereference when creating a new control group as the
array was not allocated by dom_data_init().
As this feature isn't necessary on platforms that don't have cache occupancy
monitors, add this to the check that occurs when a new control group is
allocated.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: timer: Don't take register_mutex with copy_from/to_user()
The infamous mmap_lock taken in copy_from/to_user() can be often
problematic when it's called inside another mutex, as they might lead
to deadlocks.
In the case of ALSA timer code, the bad pattern is with
guard(mutex)(®ister_mutex) that covers copy_from/to_user() -- which
was mistakenly introduced at converting to guard(), and it had been
carefully worked around in the past.
This patch fixes those pieces simply by moving copy_from/to_user() out
of the register mutex lock again.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath12k: Clear affinity hint before calling ath12k_pci_free_irq() in error path
If a shared IRQ is used by the driver due to platform limitation, then the
IRQ affinity hint is set right after the allocation of IRQ vectors in
ath12k_pci_msi_alloc(). This does no harm unless one of the functions
requesting the IRQ fails and attempt to free the IRQ.
This may end up with a warning from the IRQ core that is expecting the
affinity hint to be cleared before freeing the IRQ:
kernel/irq/manage.c:
/* make sure affinity_hint is cleaned up */
if (WARN_ON_ONCE(desc->affinity_hint))
desc->affinity_hint = NULL;
So to fix this issue, clear the IRQ affinity hint before calling
ath12k_pci_free_irq() in the error path. The affinity will be cleared once
again further down the error path due to code organization, but that does
no harm.

The old helper for_each_mddev() actually grab the reference of mddev2
while holding the lock, to prevent from being freed. This problem can be
fixed the same way, however, the code will be complex.
Hence switch to use list_for_each_entry, in this case mddev_put() can free
the mddev1 and it's not safe as well. Refer to md_seq_show(), also factor
out a helper mddev_put_locked() to fix this problem.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md/raid1,raid10: don't ignore IO flags
If blk-wbt is enabled by default, it's found that raid write performance
is quite bad because all IO are throttled by wbt of underlying disks,
due to flag REQ_IDLE is ignored. And turns out this behaviour exist since
blk-wbt is introduced.
Other than REQ_IDLE, other flags should not be ignored as well, for
example REQ_META can be set for filesystems, clearing it can cause priority
reverse problems; And REQ_NOWAIT should not be cleared as well, because
io will wait instead of failing directly in underlying disks.
Fix those problems by keep IO flags from master bio.

ext4: avoid journaling sb update on error if journal is destroying
Presently we always BUG_ON if trying to start a transaction on a journal marked
with JBD2_UNMOUNT, since this should never happen. However, while ltp running
stress tests, it was observed that in case of some error handling paths, it is
possible for update_super_work to start a transaction after the journal is
destroyed eg:
(umount)
ext4_kill_sb
kill_block_super
generic_shutdown_super
sync_filesystem /* commits all txns */
evict_inodes
/* might start a new txn */
ext4_put_super
flush_work(&sbi->s_sb_upd_work) /* flush the workqueue */
jbd2_journal_destroy
journal_kill_thread
journal->j_flags |= JBD2_UNMOUNT;
jbd2_journal_commit_transaction
jbd2_journal_get_descriptor_buffer
jbd2_journal_bmap
ext4_journal_bmap
ext4_map_blocks
...
ext4_inode_error
ext4_handle_error
schedule_work(&sbi->s_sb_upd_work)
/* work queue kicks in */
update_super_work
jbd2_journal_start
start_this_handle
BUG_ON(journal->j_flags &
JBD2_UNMOUNT)
Hence, introduce a new mount flag to indicate journal is destroying and only do
a journaled (and deferred) update of sb if this flag is not set. Otherwise, just
fallback to an un-journaled commit.
Further, in the journal destroy path, we have the following sequence:
1. Set mount flag indicating journal is destroying
2. force a commit and wait for it
3. flush pending sb updates
This sequence is important as it ensures that, after this point, there is no sb
update that might be journaled so it is safe to update the sb outside the
journal. (To avoid race discussed in 2d01ddc86606)
Also, we don't need a similar check in ext4_grp_locked_error since it is only
called from mballoc and AFAICT it would be always valid to schedule work here.

w1: fix NULL pointer dereference in probe
The w1_uart_probe() function calls w1_uart_serdev_open() (which includes
devm_serdev_device_open()) before setting the client ops via
serdev_device_set_client_ops(). This ordering can trigger a NULL pointer
dereference in the serdev controller's receive_buf handler, as it assumes
serdev->ops is valid when SERPORT_ACTIVE is set.
This is similar to the issue fixed in commit 5e700b384ec1
("platform/chrome: cros_ec_uart: properly fix race condition") where
devm_serdev_device_open() was called before fully initializing the
device.
Fix the race by ensuring client ops are set before enabling the port via
w1_uart_serdev_open().

spufs: fix a leak on spufs_new_file() failure
It's called from spufs_fill_dir(), and caller of that will do
spufs_rmdir() in case of failure. That does remove everything
we'd managed to create, but... the problem dentry is still
negative. IOW, it needs to be explicitly dropped.

fs/9p: fix NULL pointer dereference on mkdir
When a 9p tree was mounted with option 'posixacl', parent directory had a
default ACL set for its subdirectories, e.g.:
setfacl -m default:group:simpsons:rwx parentdir
then creating a subdirectory crashed 9p client, as v9fs_fid_add() call in
function v9fs_vfs_mkdir_dotl() sets the passed 'fid' pointer to NULL
(since dafbe689736) even though the subsequent v9fs_set_create_acl() call
expects a valid non-NULL 'fid' pointer:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: cadence: Fix out-of-bounds array access in cdns_mrvl_xspi_setup_clock()
If requested_clk > 128, cdns_mrvl_xspi_setup_clock() iterates over the
entire cdns_mrvl_xspi_clk_div_list array without breaking out early,
causing 'i' to go beyond the array bounds.
Fix that by stopping the loop when it gets to the last entry, clamping
the clock to the minimum 6.25 MHz.
Fixes the following warning with an UBSAN kernel:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
idpf: fix adapter NULL pointer dereference on reboot
With SRIOV enabled, idpf ends up calling into idpf_remove() twice.
First via idpf_shutdown() and then again when idpf_remove() calls into
sriov_disable(), because the VF devices use the idpf driver, hence the
same remove routine. When that happens, it is possible for the adapter
to be NULL from the first call to idpf_remove(), leading to a NULL
pointer dereference.

Replace the direct idpf_remove() call in idpf_shutdown() with
idpf_vc_core_deinit() and idpf_deinit_dflt_mbx(), which perform
the bulk of the cleanup, such as stopping the init task, freeing IRQs,
destroying the vports and freeing the mailbox. This avoids the calls to
sriov_disable() in addition to a small netdev cleanup, and destroying
workqueues, which don't seem to be required on shutdown.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netlabel: Fix NULL pointer exception caused by CALIPSO on IPv4 sockets
When calling netlbl_conn_setattr(), addr->sa_family is used
to determine the function behavior. If sk is an IPv4 socket,
but the connect function is called with an IPv6 address,
the function calipso_sock_setattr() is triggered.
Inside this function, the following code is executed:
sk_fullsock(__sk) ? inet_sk(__sk)->pinet6 : NULL;
Since sk is an IPv4 socket, pinet6 is NULL, leading to a
null pointer dereference.
This patch fixes the issue by checking if inet6_sk(sk)
returns a NULL pointer before accessing pinet6.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
udp: Fix memory accounting leak.
Matt Dowling reported a weird UDP memory usage issue.
Under normal operation, the UDP memory usage reported in /proc/net/sockstat
remains close to zero. However, it occasionally spiked to 524,288 pages
and never dropped. Moreover, the value doubled when the application was
terminated. Finally, it caused intermittent packet drops.
We can reproduce the issue with the script below [0]:
1. /proc/net/sockstat reports 0 pages
# cat /proc/net/sockstat | grep UDP:
UDP: inuse 1 mem 0
2. Run the script till the report reaches 524,288
# python3 test.py & sleep 5
# cat /proc/net/sockstat | grep UDP:
UDP: inuse 3 mem 524288 <-- (INT_MAX + 1) >> PAGE_SHIFT
3. Kill the socket and confirm the number never drops
# pkill python3 && sleep 5
# cat /proc/net/sockstat | grep UDP:
UDP: inuse 1 mem 524288
4. (necessary since v6.0) Trigger proto_memory_pcpu_drain()
# python3 test.py & sleep 1 && pkill python3
5. The number doubles
# cat /proc/net/sockstat | grep UDP:
UDP: inuse 1 mem 1048577
The application set INT_MAX to SO_RCVBUF, which triggered an integer
overflow in udp_rmem_release().
When a socket is close()d, udp_destruct_common() purges its receive
queue and sums up skb->truesize in the queue. This total is calculated
and stored in a local unsigned integer variable.
The total size is then passed to udp_rmem_release() to adjust memory
accounting. However, because the function takes a signed integer
argument, the total size can wrap around, causing an overflow.
Then, the released amount is calculated as follows:
1) Add size to sk->sk_forward_alloc.
2) Round down sk->sk_forward_alloc to the nearest lower multiple of
PAGE_SIZE and assign it to amount.
3) Subtract amount from sk->sk_forward_alloc.
4) Pass amount >> PAGE_SHIFT to __sk_mem_reduce_allocated().
When the issue occurred, the total in udp_destruct_common() was 2147484480
(INT_MAX + 833), which was cast to -2147482816 in udp_rmem_release().
At 1) sk->sk_forward_alloc is changed from 3264 to -2147479552, and
2) sets -2147479552 to amount. 3) reverts the wraparound, so we don't
see a warning in inet_sock_destruct(). However, udp_memory_allocated
ends up doubling at 4).
Since commit 3cd3399dd7a8 ("net: implement per-cpu reserves for
memory_allocated"), memory usage no longer doubles immediately after
a socket is close()d because __sk_mem_reduce_allocated() caches the
amount in udp_memory_per_cpu_fw_alloc. However, the next time a UDP
socket receives a packet, the subtraction takes effect, causing UDP
memory usage to double.
This issue makes further memory allocation fail once the socket's
sk->sk_rmem_alloc exceeds net.ipv4.udp_rmem_min, resulting in packet
drops.
To prevent this issue, let's use unsigned int for the calculation and
call sk_forward_alloc_add() only once for the small delta.
Note that first_packet_length() also potentially has the same problem.
[0]:
from socket import *
SO_RCVBUFFORCE = 33
INT_MAX = (2 ** 31) - 1
s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM)
s.bind(('', 0))
s.setsockopt(SOL_SOCKET, SO_RCVBUFFORCE, INT_MAX)
c = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM)
c.connect(s.getsockname())
data = b'a' * 100
while True:

net: ibmveth: make veth_pool_store stop hanging
v2:
- Created a single error handling unlock and exit in veth_pool_store
- Greatly expanded commit message with previous explanatory-only text
Summary: Use rtnl_mutex to synchronize veth_pool_store with itself,
ibmveth_close and ibmveth_open, preventing multiple calls in a row to
napi_disable.
Background: Two (or more) threads could call veth_pool_store through
writing to /sys/devices/vio/30000002/pool*/*. You can do this easily
with a little shell script. This causes a hang.
I configured LOCKDEP, compiled ibmveth.c with DEBUG, and built a new
kernel. I ran this test again and saw:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: gpib: Fix Oops after disconnect in ni_usb
If the usb dongle is disconnected subsequent calls to the
driver cause a NULL dereference Oops as the bus_interface
is set to NULL on disconnect.
This problem was introduced by setting usb_dev from the bus_interface
for dev_xxx messages.
Previously bus_interface was checked for NULL only in the the functions
directly calling usb_fill_bulk_urb or usb_control_msg.
Check for valid bus_interface on all interface entry points
and return -ENODEV if it is NULL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
uprobes/x86: Harden uretprobe syscall trampoline check
Jann reported a possible issue when trampoline_check_ip returns
address near the bottom of the address space that is allowed to
call into the syscall if uretprobes are not set up:
https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/202502081235.5A6F352985@keescook/T/#m9d416df341b8fbc11737dacbcd29f0054413cbbf
Though the mmap minimum address restrictions will typically prevent
creating mappings there, let's make sure uretprobe syscall checks
for that.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: Don't call NULL in do_compat_alignment_fixup()
do_alignment_t32_to_handler() only fixes up alignment faults for
specific instructions; it returns NULL otherwise (e.g. LDREX). When
that's the case, signal to the caller that it needs to proceed with the
regular alignment fault handling (i.e. SIGBUS). Without this patch, the
kernel panics:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI/bwctrl: Fix NULL pointer dereference on bus number exhaustion
When BIOS neglects to assign bus numbers to PCI bridges, the kernel
attempts to correct that during PCI device enumeration. If it runs out
of bus numbers, no pci_bus is allocated and the "subordinate" pointer in
the bridge's pci_dev remains NULL.
The PCIe bandwidth controller erroneously does not check for a NULL
subordinate pointer and dereferences it on probe.
Bandwidth control of unusable devices below the bridge is of questionable
utility, so simply error out instead. This mirrors what PCIe hotplug does
since commit 62e4492c3063 ("PCI: Prevent NULL dereference during pciehp
probe").
The PCI core emits a message with KERN_INFO severity if it has run out of
bus numbers. PCIe hotplug emits an additional message with KERN_ERR
severity to inform the user that hotplug functionality is disabled at the
bridge. A similar message for bandwidth control does not seem merited,
given that its only purpose so far is to expose an up-to-date link speed
in sysfs and throttle the link speed on certain laptops with limited
Thermal Design Power. So error out silently.
User-visible messages:
