tipc: fix divide-by-zero in tipcskfilterconnect()
A user can set conntimeout to any value via setsockopt(TIPCCONNTIMEOUT), including values less than 4. When a SYN is rejected with TIPCERROVERLOAD and the retry path in tipcskfilterconnect() executes:
delay %= (tsk->conntimeout / 4);
If conntimeout is in the range [0, 3], the integer division yields 0, and the modulo operation triggers a divide-by-zero exception, causing a kernel oops/panic.
Fix this by clamping conntimeout to a minimum of 4 at the point of use in tipcskfilterconnect().

ceph: fix inlink underrun during async unlink
During async unlink, we drop the inlink counter before we receive the completion (that will eventually update the inlink) because "we assume that the unlink will succeed". That is not a bad idea, but it races against deletions by other clients (or against the completion of our own unlink) and can lead to an underrun which emits a WARNING like this one:

In cephunlink(), a call to cephmdscsubmitrequest() submits the CEPHMDSOPUNLINK to the MDS, but does not wait for completion.
Meanwhile, between this call and the following dropnlink() call, a worker thread may process a CEPHCAPOPIMPORT, CEPHCAPOPGRANT or just a CEPHMSGCLIENTREPLY (the latter of which could be our own completion). These will lead to a setnlink() call, updating the inlink counter to the value received from the MDS. If that new inlink value happens to be zero, it is illegal to decrement it further. But that is exactly what cephunlink() will do then.
The WARNING can be reproduced this way:
1. Force async unlink; only the async code path is affected. Having no real clue about Ceph internals, I was unable to find out why the MDS wouldn't give me the "Fxr" capabilities, so I patched getcapsforasyncunlink() to always succeed.
(Note that the WARNING dump above was found on an unpatched kernel, without this kludge - this is not a theoretical bug.)
2. Add a sleep call after cephmdscsubmitrequest() so the unlink completion gets handled by a worker thread before dropnlink() is called. This guarantees that the inlink is already zero before dropnlink() runs.
The solution is to skip the counter decrement when it is already zero, but doing so without a lock is still racy (TOCTOU). Since cephfillinode() and handlecapgrant() both hold the cephinodeinfo.icephlock spinlock while setnlink() runs, this seems like the proper lock to protect the inlink updates.
I found prior art in NFS and SMB (using inode.ilock) and AFS (using afsvnode.cblock). All three have the zero check as well.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cgroup: fix race between task migration and iteration
When a task is migrated out of a cssset, cgroupmigrateaddtask() first moves it from cset->tasks to cset->mgtasks via:
listmovetail(&task->cglist, &cset->mgtasks);
If a csstaskiter currently has it->taskpos pointing to this task, csssetmovetask() calls csstaskiterskip() to keep the iterator valid. However, since the task has already been moved to ->mgtasks, the iterator is advanced relative to the mgtasks list instead of the original tasks list. As a result, remaining tasks on cset->tasks, as well as tasks queued on cset->mgtasks, can be skipped by iteration.
Fix this by calling csssetskiptaskiters() before unlinking task->cglist from cset->tasks. This advances all active iterators to the next task on cset->tasks, so iteration continues correctly even when a task is concurrently being migrated.
This race is hard to hit in practice without instrumentation, but it can be reproduced by artificially slowing down cgroupprocsshow(). For example, on an Android device a temporary /sys/kernel/cgroup/cgrouptest knob can be added to inject a delay into cgroupprocsshow(), and then:
1) Spawn three long-running tasks (PIDs 101, 102, 103). 2) Create a test cgroup and move the tasks into it. 3) Enable a large delay via /sys/kernel/cgroup/cgrouptest. 4) In one shell, read cgroup.procs from the test cgroup. 5) Within the delay window, in another shell migrate PID 102 by writing it to a different cgroup.procs file.
Under this setup, cgroup.procs can intermittently show only PID 101 while skipping PID 103. Once the migration completes, reading the file again shows all tasks as expected.
Note that this change does not allow removing the existing csssetskiptaskiters() call in csssetmovetask(). The new call in cgroupmigrateaddtask() only handles iterators that are racing with migration while the task is still on cset->tasks. Iterators may also start after the task has been moved to cset->mgtasks. If we dropped csssetskiptaskiters() from csssetmovetask(), such iterators could keep taskpos pointing to a migrating task, causing csstaskiteradvance() to malfunction on the destination cssset, up to and including crashes or infinite loops.
The race window between migration and iteration is very small, and csstaskiter is not on a hot path. In the worst case, when an iterator is positioned on the first thread of the migrating process, cgroupmigrateaddtask() may have to skip multiple tasks via csssetskiptaskiters(). However, this only happens when migration and iteration actually race, so the performance impact is negligible compared to the correctness fix provided here.

netfilter: nfnetlinkcthelper: fix OOB read in nfnlcthelperdumptable()
nfnlcthelperdumptable() has a 'goto restart' that jumps to a label inside the for loop body. When the "last" helper saved in cb->args[1] is deleted between dump rounds, every entry fails the (cur != last) check, so cb->args[1] is never cleared. The for loop finishes with cb->args[0] == nfcthelperhsize, and the 'goto restart' jumps back into the loop body bypassing the bounds check, causing an 8-byte out-of-bounds read on nfcthelperhash[nfcthelperhsize].
The 'goto restart' block was meant to re-traverse the current bucket when "last" is no longer found, but it was placed after the for loop instead of inside it. Move the block into the for loop body so that the restart only occurs while cb->args[0] is still within bounds.

octeontx2-af: Workaround SQM/PSE stalls by disabling sticky
NIX SQ manager sticky mode is known to cause stalls when multiple SQs share an SMQ and transmit concurrently. Additionally, PSE may deadlock on transitions between sticky and non-sticky transmissions. There is also a credit drop issue observed when certain condition clocks are gated.
work around these hardware errata by: - Disabling SQM sticky operation: - Clear TM6 (bit 15) - Clear TM11 (bit 14) - Disabling sticky → non-sticky transition path that can deadlock PSE: - Clear TM5 (bit 23) - Preventing credit drops by keeping the control-flow clock enabled: - Set TM9 (bit 21)
These changes are applied via NIXAFSQMDBGCTLSTATUS. With this configuration the SQM/PSE maintain forward progress under load without credit loss, at the cost of disabling sticky optimizations.

EFI/CPER: don't go past the ARM processor CPER record buffer
There's a logic inside GHES/CPER to detect if the sectionlength is too small, but it doesn't detect if it is too big.
Currently, if the firmware receives an ARM processor CPER record stating that a section length is big, kernel will blindly trust sectionlength, producing a very long dump. For instance, a 67 bytes record with ERRINFONUM set 46198 and section length set to 854918320 would dump a lot of data going a way past the firmware memory-mapped area.
Fix it by adding a logic to prevent it to go past the buffer if ERRINFONUM is too big, making it report instead:

drm: Account property blob allocations to memcg
DRMIOCTLMODECREATEPROPBLOB allows userspace to allocate arbitrary-sized property blobs backed by kernel memory.
Currently, the blob data allocation is not accounted to the allocating process's memory cgroup, allowing unprivileged users to trigger unbounded kernel memory consumption and potentially cause system-wide OOM.
Mark the property blob data allocation with GFPKERNELACCOUNT so that the memory is properly charged to the caller's memcg. This ensures existing cgroup memory limits apply and prevents uncontrolled kernel memory growth without introducing additional policy or per-file limits.

drm/atmel-hlcdc: fix use-after-free of drmcrtccommit after release
The atmelhlcdcplaneatomicduplicatestate() callback was copying the atmelhlcdcplane state structure without properly duplicating the drmplanestate. In particular, state->commit remained set to the old state commit, which can lead to a use-after-free in the next drmatomiccommit() call.
Fix this by calling drmatomichelperduplicateplanestate(), which correctly clones the base drmplanestate (including the ->commit pointer).
It has been seen when closing and re-opening the device node while another DRM client (e.g. fbdev) is still attached:

usb: gadget: ftcm: Fix NULL pointer dereferences in nexus handling
The tpg->tpgnexus pointer in the USB Target driver is dynamically managed and tied to userspace configuration via ConfigFS. It can be NULL if the USB host sends requests before the nexus is fully established or immediately after it is dropped.
Currently, functions like botsubmitcommand() and the data transfer paths retrieve tvnexus = tpg->tpgnexus and immediately dereference tvnexus->tvnsesess without any validation. If a malicious or misconfigured USB host sends a BOT (Bulk-Only Transport) command during this race window, it triggers a NULL pointer dereference, leading to a kernel panic (local DoS).
This exposes an inconsistent API usage within the module, as peer functions like usbgsubmitcommand() and botsendbadresponse() correctly implement a NULL check for tvnexus before proceeding.
Fix this by bringing consistency to the nexus handling. Add the missing if (!tvnexus) checks to the vulnerable BOT command and request processing paths, aborting the command gracefully with an error instead of crashing the system.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (pmbus/q54sj108a2) fix stack overflow in debugfs read
The q54sj108a2debugfsread function suffers from a stack buffer overflow due to incorrect arguments passed to bin2hex(). The function currently passes 'data' as the destination and 'datachar' as the source.
Because bin2hex() converts each input byte into two hex characters, a 32-byte block read results in 64 bytes of output. Since 'data' is only 34 bytes (I2CSMBUSBLOCKMAX + 2), this writes 30 bytes past the end of the buffer onto the stack.
Additionally, the arguments were swapped: it was reading from the zero-initialized 'datachar' and writing to 'data', resulting in all-zero output regardless of the actual I2C read.
Fix this by: 1. Expanding 'datachar' to 66 bytes to safely hold the hex output. 2. Correcting the bin2hex() argument order and using the actual read count. 3. Using a pointer to select the correct output buffer for the final simplereadfrombuffer call.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pstore: ramcore: fix incorrect success return when vmap() fails
In persistentramvmap(), vmap() may return NULL on failure.
If offset is non-zero, adding offsetinpage(start) causes the function to return a non-NULL pointer even though the mapping failed. persistentrambuffermap() therefore incorrectly returns success.
Subsequent access to prz->buffer may dereference an invalid address and cause crashes.
Add proper NULL checking for vmap() failures.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/ioc32: stop speculation on the drmcompatioctl path
The drm compat ioctl path takes a user controlled pointer, and then dereferences it into a table of function pointers, the signature method of spectre problems. Fix this up by calling arrayindexnospec() on the index to the function pointer list.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: frndis: Protect RNDIS options with mutex
The class/subclass/protocol options are suspectible to race conditions as they can be accessed concurrently through configfs.
Use existing mutex to protect these options. This issue was identified during code inspection.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
comedi: Reinit dev->spinlock between attachments to low-level drivers
struct comedidevice is the main controlling structure for a COMEDI device created by the COMEDI subsystem. It contains a member spinlock containing a spin-lock that is initialized by the COMEDI subsystem, but is reserved for use by a low-level driver attached to the COMEDI device (at least since commit 25436dc9d84f ("Staging: comedi: remove RT code")).
Some COMEDI devices (those created on initialization of the COMEDI subsystem when the "comedi.comedinumlegacyminors" parameter is non-zero) can be attached to different low-level drivers over their lifetime using the COMEDIDEVCONFIG ioctl command. This can result in inconsistent lock states being reported when there is a mismatch in the spin-lock locking levels used by each low-level driver to which the COMEDI device has been attached. Fix it by reinitializing dev->spinlock before calling the low-level driver's attach function pointer if CONFIGLOCKDEP is enabled.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: SMP: force responder MITM requirements before building the pairing response
smpcmdpairingreq() currently builds the pairing response from the initiator authreq before enforcing the local BTSECURITYHIGH requirement. If the initiator omits SMPAUTHMITM, the response can also omit it even though the local side still requires MITM.
tkrequest() then sees an auth value without SMPAUTHMITM and may select JUSTCFM, making method selection inconsistent with the pairing policy the responder already enforces.
When the local side requires HIGH security, first verify that MITM can be achieved from the IO capabilities and then force SMPAUTHMITM in the response in both rsp.authreq and auth. This keeps the responder auth bits and later method selection aligned.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: logitech-hidpp: Check maxfield in hidppgetreportlength()
Do not crash when a report has no fields.
Fake USB gadgets can send their own HID report descriptors and can define report structures without valid fields. This can be used to crash the kernel over USB.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: MGMT: validate LTK encsize on load
Load Long Term Keys stores the user-provided encsize and later uses it to size fixed-size stack operations when replying to LE LTK requests. An encsize larger than the 16-byte key buffer can therefore overflow the reply stack buffer.
Reject oversized encsize values while validating the management LTK record so invalid keys never reach the stored key state.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: soc-core: flush delayed work before removing DAIs and widgets
When a sound card is unbound while a PCM stream is open, a use-after-free can occur in sndsocdapmstreamevent(), called from the closedelayedwork workqueue handler.
During unbind, sndsocunbindcard() flushes delayed work and then calls soccleanupcardresources(). Inside cleanup, sndcarddisconnectsync() releases all PCM file descriptors, and the resulting PCM close path can call sndsocdapmstreamstop() which schedules new delayed work with a pmdowntime timer delay. Since this happens after the flush in sndsocunbindcard(), the new work is not caught. socremovelinkcomponents() then frees DAPM widgets before this work fires, leading to the use-after-free.
The existing flush in socfreepcmruntime() also cannot help as it runs after socremovelinkcomponents() has already freed the widgets.
Add a flush in soccleanupcardresources() after sndcarddisconnectsync() (after which no new PCM closes can schedule further delayed work) and before socremovelinkdais() and socremovelinkcomponents() (which tear down the structures the delayed work accesses).
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: omap: do not register driver in probe()
Commit 11a78b794496 ("ARM: OMAP: MPUIO wake updates") registers the omapmpuiodriver from omapmpuioinit(), which is called from omapgpioprobe().
However, it neither makes sense to register drivers from probe() callbacks of other drivers, nor does the driver core allow registering drivers with a device lock already being held.
The latter was revealed by commit dc23806a7c47 ("driver core: enforce devicelock for drivermatchdevice()") leading to a potential deadlock condition described in [1].
Additionally, the omapmpuiodriver is never unregistered from the driver core, even if the module is unloaded.
Hence, register the omapmpuiodriver from the module initcall and unregister it in moduleexit().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: brcmsmac: Fix dmafreecoherent() size
dmaallocconsistent() may change the size to align it. The new size is saved in alloced.
Change the free size to match the allocation size.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix type confusion in l2capecredreconfrsp()
l2capecredreconfrsp() casts the incoming data to struct l2capecredconnrsp (the ECRED connection response, 8 bytes with result at offset 6) instead of struct l2capecredreconfrsp (2 bytes with result at offset 0).
This causes two problems:
- The sizeof(rsp) length check requires 8 bytes instead of the correct 2, so valid L2CAPECREDRECONFRSP packets are rejected with -EPROTO.
- rsp->result reads from offset 6 instead of offset 0, returning wrong data when the packet is large enough to pass the check.
Fix by using the correct type. Also pass the already byte-swapped result variable to BTDBG instead of the raw le16 field.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
e1000/e1000e: Fix leak in DMA error cleanup
If an error is encountered while mapping TX buffers, the driver should unmap any buffers already mapped for that skb.
Because count is incremented after a successful mapping, it will always match the correct number of unmappings needed when dmaerror is reached. Decrementing count before the while loop in dmaerror causes an off-by-one error. If any mapping was successful before an unsuccessful mapping, exactly one DMA mapping would leak.
In these commits, a faulty while condition caused an infinite loop in dmaerror: Commit 03b1320dfcee ("e1000e: remove use of skbdmamap from e1000e driver") Commit 602c0554d7b0 ("e1000: remove use of skbdmamap from e1000 driver")
Commit c1fa347f20f1 ("e1000/e1000e/igb/igbvf/ixgb/ixgbe: Fix tests of unsigned in txmap()") fixed the infinite loop, but introduced the off-by-one error.
This issue may still exist in the igbvf driver, but I did not address it in this patch.
