| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
idpf: detach and close netdevs while handling a reset
Protect the reset path from callbacks by setting the netdevs to detached
state and close any netdevs in UP state until the reset handling has
completed. During a reset, the driver will de-allocate resources for the
vport, and there is no guarantee that those will recover, which is why the
existing vport_ctrl_lock does not provide sufficient protection.
idpf_detach_and_close() is called right before reset handling. If the
reset handling succeeds, the netdevs state is recovered via call to
idpf_attach_and_open(). If the reset handling fails the netdevs remain
down. The detach/down calls are protected with RTNL lock to avoid racing
with callbacks. On the recovery side the attach can be done without
holding the RTNL lock as there are no callbacks expected at that point,
due to detach/close always being done first in that flow.
The previous logic restoring the netdevs state based on the
IDPF_VPORT_UP_REQUESTED flag in the init task is not needed anymore, hence
the removal of idpf_set_vport_state(). The IDPF_VPORT_UP_REQUESTED is
still being used to restore the state of the netdevs following the reset,
but has no use outside of the reset handling flow.
idpf_init_hard_reset() is converted to void, since it was used as such and
there is no error handling being done based on its return value.
Before this change, invoking hard and soft resets simultaneously will
cause the driver to lose the vport state:
ip -br a
<inf> UP
echo 1 > /sys/class/net/ens801f0/device/reset& \
ethtool -L ens801f0 combined 8
ip -br a
<inf> DOWN
ip link set <inf> up
ip -br a
<inf> DOWN
Also in case of a failure in the reset path, the netdev is left
exposed to external callbacks, while vport resources are not
initialized, leading to a crash on subsequent ifup/down:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: do not write to msg_get_inq in callee
NULL pointer dereference fix.
msg_get_inq is an input field from caller to callee. Don't set it in
the callee, as the caller may not clear it on struct reuse.
This is a kernel-internal variant of msghdr only, and the only user
does reinitialize the field. So this is not critical for that reason.
But it is more robust to avoid the write, and slightly simpler code.
And it fixes a bug, see below.
Callers set msg_get_inq to request the input queue length to be
returned in msg_inq. This is equivalent to but independent from the
SO_INQ request to return that same info as a cmsg (tp->recvmsg_inq).
To reduce branching in the hot path the second also sets the msg_inq.
That is WAI.
This is a fix to commit 4d1442979e4a ("af_unix: don't post cmsg for
SO_INQ unless explicitly asked for"), which fixed the inverse.
Also avoid NULL pointer dereference in unix_stream_read_generic if
state->msg is NULL and msg->msg_get_inq is written. A NULL state->msg
can happen when splicing as of commit 2b514574f7e8 ("net: af_unix:
implement splice for stream af_unix sockets").
Also collapse two branches using a bitwise or. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm-verity: disable recursive forward error correction
There are two problems with the recursive correction:
1. It may cause denial-of-service. In fec_read_bufs, there is a loop that
has 253 iterations. For each iteration, we may call verity_hash_for_block
recursively. There is a limit of 4 nested recursions - that means that
there may be at most 253^4 (4 billion) iterations. Red Hat QE team
actually created an image that pushes dm-verity to this limit - and this
image just makes the udev-worker process get stuck in the 'D' state.
2. It doesn't work. In fec_read_bufs we store data into the variable
"fio->bufs", but fio bufs is shared between recursive invocations, if
"verity_hash_for_block" invoked correction recursively, it would
overwrite partially filled fio->bufs. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/poll: correctly handle io_poll_add() return value on update
When the core of io_uring was updated to handle completions
consistently and with fixed return codes, the POLL_REMOVE opcode
with updates got slightly broken. If a POLL_ADD is pending and
then POLL_REMOVE is used to update the events of that request, if that
update causes the POLL_ADD to now trigger, then that completion is lost
and a CQE is never posted.
Additionally, ensure that if an update does cause an existing POLL_ADD
to complete, that the completion value isn't always overwritten with
-ECANCELED. For that case, whatever io_poll_add() set the value to
should just be retained. |

RDMA/core: always drop device refcount in ib_del_sub_device_and_put()
Since nldev_deldev() (introduced by commit 060c642b2ab8 ("RDMA/nldev: Add
support to add/delete a sub IB device through netlink") grabs a reference
using ib_device_get_by_index() before calling ib_del_sub_device_and_put(),
we need to drop that reference before returning -EOPNOTSUPP error. |

net: mscc: ocelot: Fix crash when adding interface under a lag
Commit 15faa1f67ab4 ("lan966x: Fix crash when adding interface under a lag")
fixed a similar issue in the lan966x driver caused by a NULL pointer dereference.
The ocelot_set_aggr_pgids() function in the ocelot driver has similar logic
and is susceptible to the same crash.
This issue specifically affects the ocelot_vsc7514.c frontend, which leaves
unused ports as NULL pointers. The felix_vsc9959.c frontend is unaffected as
it uses the DSA framework which registers all ports.
Fix this by checking if the port pointer is valid before accessing it. |

[..]
Currently nf_tables will traverse the entire table (chain graph), starting
from the entry points (base chains), exploring all possible paths
(chain jumps). But there are cases where we could avoid revalidation.
Consider:
1 input -> j2 -> j3
2 input -> j2 -> j3
3 input -> j1 -> j2 -> j3
Then the second rule does not need to revalidate j2, and, by extension j3,
because this was already checked during validation of the first rule.
We need to validate it only for rule 3.
This is needed because chain loop detection also ensures we do not exceed
the jump stack: Just because we know that j2 is cycle free, its last jump
might now exceed the allowed stack size. We also need to update all
reachable chains with the new largest observed call depth.
Care has to be taken to revalidate even if the chain depth won't be an
issue: chain validation also ensures that expressions are not called from
invalid base chains. For example, the masquerade expression can only be
called from NAT postrouting base chains.
Therefore we also need to keep record of the base chain context (type,
hooknum) and revalidate if the chain becomes reachable from a different
hook location. |

net: dsa: properly keep track of conduit reference
Problem description
-------------------
DSA has a mumbo-jumbo of reference handling of the conduit net device
and its kobject which, sadly, is just wrong and doesn't make sense.
There are two distinct problems.
1. The OF path, which uses of_find_net_device_by_node(), never releases
the elevated refcount on the conduit's kobject. Nominally, the OF and
non-OF paths should result in objects having identical reference
counts taken, and it is already suspicious that
dsa_dev_to_net_device() has a put_device() call which is missing in
dsa_port_parse_of(), but we can actually even verify that an issue
exists. With CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE=y, if we run this command
"before" and "after" applying this patch:
(unbind the conduit driver for net device eno2)
echo 0000:00:00.2 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/fsl_enetc/unbind
we see these lines in the output diff which appear only with the patch
applied:
kobject: 'eno2' (ffff002009a3a6b8): kobject_release, parent 0000000000000000 (delayed 1000)
kobject: '109' (ffff0020099d59a0): kobject_release, parent 0000000000000000 (delayed 1000)
2. After we find the conduit interface one way (OF) or another (non-OF),
it can get unregistered at any time, and DSA remains with a long-lived,
but in this case stale, cpu_dp->conduit pointer. Holding the net
device's underlying kobject isn't actually of much help, it just
prevents it from being freed (but we never need that kobject
directly). What helps us to prevent the net device from being
unregistered is the parallel netdev reference mechanism (dev_hold()
and dev_put()).
Actually we actually use that netdev tracker mechanism implicitly on
user ports since commit 2f1e8ea726e9 ("net: dsa: link interfaces with
the DSA master to get rid of lockdep warnings"), via netdev_upper_dev_link().
But time still passes at DSA switch probe time between the initial
of_find_net_device_by_node() code and the user port creation time, time
during which the conduit could unregister itself and DSA wouldn't know
about it.
So we have to run of_find_net_device_by_node() under rtnl_lock() to
prevent that from happening, and release the lock only with the netdev
tracker having acquired the reference.
Do we need to keep the reference until dsa_unregister_switch() /
dsa_switch_shutdown()?
1: Maybe yes. A switch device will still be registered even if all user
ports failed to probe, see commit 86f8b1c01a0a ("net: dsa: Do not
make user port errors fatal"), and the cpu_dp->conduit pointers
remain valid. I haven't audited all call paths to see whether they
will actually use the conduit in lack of any user port, but if they
do, it seems safer to not rely on user ports for that reference.
2. Definitely yes. We support changing the conduit which a user port is
associated to, and we can get into a situation where we've moved all
user ports away from a conduit, thus no longer hold any reference to
it via the net device tracker. But we shouldn't let it go nonetheless
- see the next change in relation to dsa_tree_find_first_conduit()
and LAG conduits which disappear.
We have to be prepared to return to the physical conduit, so the CPU
port must explicitly keep another reference to it. This is also to
say: the user ports and their CPU ports may not always keep a
reference to the same conduit net device, and both are needed.
As for the conduit's kobject for the /sys/class/net/ entry, we don't
care about it, we can release it as soon as we hold the net device
object itself.
History and blame attribution
-----------------------------
The code has been refactored so many times, it is very difficult to
follow and properly attribute a blame, but I'll try to make a short
history which I hope to be correct.
We have two distinct probing paths:
- one for OF, introduced in 2016 i

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: phy: isp1301: fix non-OF device reference imbalance
A recent change fixing a device reference leak in a UDC driver
introduced a potential use-after-free in the non-OF case as the
isp1301_get_client() helper only increases the reference count for the
returned I2C device in the OF case.
Increment the reference count also for non-OF so that the caller can
decrement it unconditionally.
Note that this is inherently racy just as using the returned I2C device
is since nothing is preventing the PHY driver from being unbound while
in use. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/handshake: restore destructor on submit failure
handshake_req_submit() replaces sk->sk_destruct but never restores it when
submission fails before the request is hashed. handshake_sk_destruct() then
returns early and the original destructor never runs, leaking the socket.
Restore sk_destruct on the error path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: Fix memory leak in get_file_all_info()
In get_file_all_info(), if vfs_getattr() fails, the function returns
immediately without freeing the allocated filename, leading to a memory
leak.
Fix this by freeing the filename before returning in this error case. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: provide locking for v4_end_grace
Writing to v4_end_grace can race with server shutdown and result in
memory being accessed after it was freed - reclaim_str_hashtbl in
particularly.
We cannot hold nfsd_mutex across the nfsd4_end_grace() call as that is
held while client_tracking_op->init() is called and that can wait for
an upcall to nfsdcltrack which can write to v4_end_grace, resulting in a
deadlock.
nfsd4_end_grace() is also called by the landromat work queue and this
doesn't require locking as server shutdown will stop the work and wait
for it before freeing anything that nfsd4_end_grace() might access.
However, we must be sure that writing to v4_end_grace doesn't restart
the work item after shutdown has already waited for it. For this we
add a new flag protected with nn->client_lock. It is set only while it
is safe to make client tracking calls, and v4_end_grace only schedules
work while the flag is set with the spinlock held.
So this patch adds a nfsd_net field "client_tracking_active" which is
set as described. Another field "grace_end_forced", is set when
v4_end_grace is written. After this is set, and providing
client_tracking_active is set, the laundromat is scheduled.
This "grace_end_forced" field bypasses other checks for whether the
grace period has finished.
This resolves a race which can result in use-after-free. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cifs: Fix memory and information leak in smb3_reconfigure()
In smb3_reconfigure(), if smb3_sync_session_ctx_passwords() fails, the
function returns immediately without freeing and erasing the newly
allocated new_password and new_password2. This causes both a memory leak
and a potential information leak.
Fix this by calling kfree_sensitive() on both password buffers before
returning in this error case. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: avoid kernel-infoleak from struct iw_point
struct iw_point has a 32bit hole on 64bit arches.
struct iw_point {
void __user *pointer; /* Pointer to the data (in user space) */
__u16 length; /* number of fields or size in bytes */
__u16 flags; /* Optional params */
};
Make sure to zero the structure to avoid disclosing 32bits of kernel data
to user space. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conncount: fix leaked ct in error paths
There are some situations where ct might be leaked as error paths are
skipping the refcounted check and return immediately. In order to solve
it make sure that the check is always called. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: usb: rtl8150: fix memory leak on usb_submit_urb() failure
In async_set_registers(), when usb_submit_urb() fails, the allocated
async_req structure and URB are not freed, causing a memory leak.
The completion callback async_set_reg_cb() is responsible for freeing
these allocations, but it is only called after the URB is successfully
submitted and completes (successfully or with error). If submission
fails, the callback never runs and the memory is leaked.
Fix this by freeing both the URB and the request structure in the error
path when usb_submit_urb() fails. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
idpf: Fix RSS LUT NULL pointer crash on early ethtool operations
The RSS LUT is not initialized until the interface comes up, causing
the following NULL pointer crash when ethtool operations like rxhash on/off
are performed before the interface is brought up for the first time.
Move RSS LUT initialization from ndo_open to vport creation to ensure LUT
is always available. This enables RSS configuration via ethtool before
bringing the interface up. Simplify LUT management by maintaining all
changes in the driver's soft copy and programming zeros to the indirection
table when rxhash is disabled. Defer HW programming until the interface
comes up if it is down during rxhash and LUT configuration changes.
Steps to reproduce:
** Load idpf driver; interfaces will be created
modprobe idpf
** Before bringing the interfaces up, turn rxhash off
ethtool -K eth2 rxhash off
