In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: ufs: core: Avoid possible memory reclaim deadlock in TX EQTR context TX EQTR may run while devfreq gear scaling has quiesced the UFS tagset. In that context, functions ufshcd_tx_eqtr(), __ufshcd_tx_eqtr() and ufs_qcom_get_rx_fom() allocate memory with GFP_KERNEL. If direct reclaim is triggered, reclaim/writeback can depend on I/O to UFS device. Because the queue is quiesced, this can cause deadlock. Use memalloc_noio_save/restore() in ufshcd_tx_eqtr() to cover all allocations in the TX EQTR call tree, including: - params->eqtr_record in ufshcd_tx_eqtr() - eqtr_data in __ufshcd_tx_eqtr() - params in ufs_qcom_get_rx_fom() This is preferred over tagging individual call sites with GFP_NOIO, as it automatically covers any future allocations added anywhere in the call tree without requiring each caller to be aware of this constraint. [mkp: fix label as suggested by Bart]

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: speakup: keyhelp: guard letter_offsets possible out-of-range indexing help_init() builds letter_offsets[] by using the first byte of each function name as an index via `(start & 31) - 1`. If function_names are overridden from sysfs (root) with a name starting outside [a-z], the index underflows or exceeds the array, leading to OOB write. Function names can be overridden with the following commands as root: modprobe speakup_soft echo "0 _bad" > /sys/accessibility/speakup/i18n/function_names # then press Insert+2 on /dev/tty This fix checks the first letter in help_init(), and if it is not in the [a-z] range the function returns an error to the caller. Eventually this error is propagated to drivers/accessibility/speakup/main.c:2217, which causes a bleep sound.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: misc: bcm-vk: Use acquire/release for msgq_inited bcm_vk_sync_msgq() fills the message queue information and then sets msgq_inited. Readers call bcm_vk_drv_access_ok() before accessing the message queues and their cached queue information. atomic_set()/atomic_read() do not order those accesses. A reader can see msgq_inited set while still seeing stale queue information. Use release when publishing the initialized queues and acquire when checking the gate. Keep the clear in bcm_vk_blk_drv_access() as atomic_set(). It closes the gate and does not publish queue state to readers.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: misc: ad525x_dpot: use driver core groups for sysfs files ad_dpot_probe() creates per-RDAC sysfs files manually and then optionally creates the command sysfs group. This leaves probe responsible for rolling back partial sysfs state and makes remove responsible for matching every file that probe created. Move the device attributes into driver core dev_groups for the I2C and SPI drivers and use an is_visible() callback to expose only the attributes supported by the probed device. With this shape, the driver core creates the sysfs files only after probe succeeds and removes them before the remove callback frees the driver data.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipack: ipoctal: fix UAF, null-ptr-deref, and use-after-free in cleanup on remove Three issues arise when the device is removed while a tty session is still active: 1. UAF of struct ipoctal: the remove callback frees ipoctal via kfree() while tty ops may still access it. Fix by introducing kref-based lifetime management - kref is taken in install() when a tty is opened and released in cleanup() when the tty is finally destroyed; remove() uses kref_put() instead of kfree(). 2. NULL dereference in ipoctal_write_tty(): __ipoctal_remove() frees xmit_buf via tty_port_free_xmit_buf() while a userspace process may still hold the tty fd and call write(). Fix by checking for NULL xmit_buf in ipoctal_write_tty(). 3. UAF in ipoctal_cleanup(): ipack_put_carrier(ipoctal->dev) dereferences ipoctal->dev after the ipack_device has been freed by ipack_device_del(). Fix by caching ipoctal->carrier_owner during probe() and calling module_put() on the cached pointer directly in cleanup(), avoiding any access to ipoctal->dev. Also introduce a "removed" flag in struct ipoctal, set at the start of __ipoctal_remove(), and checked in every tty op that accesses hardware resources (port_activate, write_tty, set_termios, hangup, shutdown). This prevents page faults when devm_ioremap() regions are unmapped after remove() returns.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mtd: mtdswap: Avoid freeing registered blktrans device twice In mtdswap_add_mtd(), debugfs setup failure after successful blktrans registration can free mbd_dev twice. add_mtd_blktrans_dev() initializes the blktrans device reference and publishes the disk. Once that succeeds, del_mtd_blktrans_dev() tears the disk down and drops the blktrans reference; when that reference reaches zero, blktrans_dev_release() frees the mtd_blktrans_dev. The debugfs failure path called del_mtd_blktrans_dev(mbd_dev), then fell through the common cleanup label and called kfree(mbd_dev) again. Clear the local pointer after deregistration so the common cleanup can still release the mtdswap state without freeing the blktrans object twice. This issue was found by a static analysis checker and confirmed by manual source review.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mtd: part: reject MTDPART_OFS_RETAIN in mtd_add_partition() mtd_add_partition() does not reject the special offset value MTDPART_OFS_RETAIN (-3), which leads to a WARN_ON in add_mtd_device() when called through the BLKPG ioctl on NAND devices. The RETAIN value depends on cur_offset being the end of the previous partition, but in the dynamic partition path cur_offset equals the offset argument itself, causing undefined behavior. Commit 5daa7b21496a ("mtd: prepare partition add and del functions for ioctl requests") introduced mtd_add_partition() and correctly rejected MTDPART_OFS_APPEND (-1) and MTDPART_OFS_NXTBLK (-2), since those special offsets rely on cur_offset tracking the previous partition's end. However, commit 1a31368bf92e ("mtd: add a flags for partitions which should just leave smth. after them") later added MTDPART_OFS_RETAIN (-3) for the static partition table path without updating mtd_add_partition() to also reject this value. With offset=-3 passed via BLKPG, the RETAIN size calculation in allocate_partition() underflows (parent_size - 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFD = parent_size + 3). If the underflow result does not appear to leave enough space, allocate_partition() jumps to out_register via goto, skipping erasesize initialization. This results in erasesize=0, which triggers: WARN_ON((!mtd->erasesize || !master->_erase) && !(mtd->flags & MTD_NO_ERASE)) in add_mtd_device(). If the underflow result appears to leave enough space, a bogus partition size is calculated, but the "out of reach" sanity check catches the invalid offset and creates a disabled empty partition (offset=0, size=0) instead of returning an error. Fix this by adding MTDPART_OFS_RETAIN to the rejection list in mtd_add_partition(), consistent with the existing handling of APPEND and NXTBLK.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/v3d: Associate BOs with every job that accesses them A submission can expand into a chain of jobs (e.g. bin + render + cache clean). Implicit synchronization in v3d_submit_lock_reservations() is gated on each job's bo[], but the BO list was only ever attached to the last job of the chain. When that last job is a trailing CACHE_CLEAN job, the job that actually consumes the BOs (that is, a RENDER or CSD job) was left with bo_count == 0 and picked up no implicit dependencies. It could therefore be dispatched to the hardware and read a BO while another context was still writing it, leading to data corruption. Attach the BOs to the job that consumes them, so (1) it acquires the correct implicit dependencies during reservation locking and (2) they are kept mapped until the end of the submission. Give it references to all consuming job's BOs through v3d_job_reference_bos() instead of looking the handles up a second time; that avoids a redundant lookup and guarantees both jobs reference the exact same objects. As the CACHE_CLEAN job now carries a BO array as well, add a per-job `has_implicit_dep` flag so that only the consuming jobs take implicit dependencies. The CACHE_CLEAN job (a global flush) and the BIN job (binning waiting on another context is not a realistic scenario) are excluded.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Disallow interpreter fallback for arena-related insns Since the interpreter does not support the arena-related insns, interpreter fallback should not be allowed for these insns in core.c::__bpf_prog_select_runtime(). Currently, when the interpreter executes the arena ST/LDX/STX insns, it would hit the BUG_ON() in ___bpf_prog_run() at run time. [ 2.579196] BPF interpreter: unknown opcode a2 (imm: 0x0) [ 2.579998] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 2.580652] kernel BUG at kernel/bpf/core.c:2349! [ 2.581314] Oops: invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI Set jit_required as true when arena map is used in the prog to disallow interpreter fallback for arena-related insns.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Disallow interpreter fallback for gotox insn The interpreter does not recognize the BPF_JMP|BPF_JA|BPF_X insn, which is used for insn_array map. Thereafter, it would hit the BUG_ON() in ___bpf_prog_run() at run time. [ 2.563726] BPF interpreter: unknown opcode 0d (imm: 0x0) [ 2.564557] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 2.565206] kernel BUG at kernel/bpf/core.c:2349!

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dmaengine: dw-edma: Serialize abort state updates dw_edma_abort_interrupt() drops vc.lock before changing request and status. issue_pending() can acquire the lock in that small window, observe the old busy state, and skip starting queued descriptors. Then the abort handler overwrites the channel status as idle, leaving the new descriptors stranded for good. Keep descriptor completion and the state transition in the same critical section.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dmaengine: dw-edma: Serialize channel state checks pause() and resume() read and update channel state without holding vc.lock, while the interrupt handlers update the same state under it. Take the same lock around those state checks so that request, status, and configured stay consistent. For example, pause() can observe EDMA_ST_BUSY right before the interrupt handler completes the final descriptor and moves the channel to EDMA_ST_IDLE, and then record EDMA_REQ_PAUSE on an already idle channel. No further interrupt will acknowledge the request, and since issue_pending() requires EDMA_REQ_NONE, the channel is wedged for good: terminate_all() leaves the stale request behind, so even reconfiguring the channel does not recover it. issue_pending() already runs under vc.lock, but it tests configured before taking it. Move that test under the lock as well, so configured, request, and status are evaluated as one channel-state snapshot.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iio: dac: ad5686: missing NULL check on match data Verify that chip_info pointer is not NULL. If a user binds the driver using driver_override via sysfs with a device name not present in the id_table or of_match_table, match data will be NULL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: irqchip/gic-v3-its: Prevent leak in its_vpe_irq_domain_alloc() When its_irq_gic_domain_alloc() fails, the following its_vpe_irq_domain_free() fails to invoke its_vep_teardown() for the corresponding interrupt, which leaks the resource. Invoke its_vpe_teardown() in the error handling path to avoid the leak. [ tglx: Massaged change log ]

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/nldev: validate dynamic counter attribute length RDMA_NLDEV_ATTR_STAT_HWCOUNTERS is a nested attribute whose children are consumed directly with nla_get_u32(). The top-level policy validates only the container, so it does not establish the fixed shape of each child. Require every child payload to be exactly one u32 before reading it.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ACPI: PCI: Clear driver_data on all paths that free the acpi_pci_root acpi_pci_root_add() assigns the freshly allocated root to device->driver_data before dmar_device_add() and pci_acpi_scan_root(). Both failure paths reach the end: label where root is kfree()'d, but only the pci_acpi_scan_root() path clears driver_data first. When dmar_device_add() fails during a hot-add, root is freed while device->driver_data still points at it. The ACPI core does not clear driver_data on attach failure, so a later acpi_pci_find_root() call may dereference this dangling pointer. acpi_pci_root_remove() has the same problem: it frees root without clearing device->driver_data, leaving a dangling pointer behind after the root bridge is removed. Move the NULL assignment to the shared end: label so every error path in acpi_pci_root_add() clears driver_data before freeing root, and clear it in acpi_pci_root_remove() as well, so the object is never left reachable through driver_data after being freed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Zero queue and stack outputs on lock failure Queue and stack pop/peek helpers accept an uninitialized output buffer because the verifier expects the helper to initialize it. The empty-map error path clears the buffer, but a failed lock acquisition returns -EBUSY without writing it. Clear the output before returning -EBUSY so BPF programs cannot observe uninitialized stack contents after a failed helper call.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: riscv, bpf: Fix memory leak in bpf_jit_free When bpf_int_jit_compile() is called for subprograms, it returns early during the first pass (!prog->is_func || extra_pass is false), keeping ctx->offset alive for the subsequent extra pass. If JIT compilation fails for a later subprogram, the BPF core aborts and calls bpf_jit_free() to clean up the first subprogram. However, bpf_jit_free() fails to free jit_data->ctx.offset, which causes a memory leak of the JIT context offsets array. Fix this by adding the missing kfree(jit_data->ctx.offset) in bpf_jit_free().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf, riscv: Fix extable handling for arena load_acquire emit_atomic_ld_st() returns 1 to have build_body() skip the zext after a sub-word load_acquire. The caller does "ret = ret ?: add_exception_handler(...)", which skips add_exception_handler() on any non-zero ret, so the extable entry is missing and a faulting PROBE_ATOMIC load_acquire oopses. REG_DONT_CLEAR_MARKER leaves rd stale on fault, and the verifier still thinks the load overwrote it, so a program can leak it through a map. Check ret >= 0 before calling add_exception_handler(), and pass rd for LOAD_ACQ so the fault zeroes rd like a PROBE_MEM load. Return ret unchanged for the zext skip.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Fix offset warn check for bpf_res_spin_lock Sashiko pointed out correctly that the case statement for BPF_RES_SPIN_LOCK incorrectly checks offset for BPF_SPIN_LOCK. Fix it by checking res_spin_lock_off instead.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Preserve unique-field state across nested structs btf_find_struct_field() initializes a fresh seen mask for every recursive descent. Unique special fields in different levels of the same aggregate therefore do not see one another. The duplicate fields can reach btf_parse_fields(), where they trigger an invariant WARN_ON_ONCE(). A crafted user BTF can consequently trigger the warning before map creation checks capabilities. Initialize the seen mask once in btf_find_field() and pass the same pointer through struct, datasec, and nested-struct walks. This gives the entire field traversal one shared uniqueness state.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/erdma: Fix CEQ tasklet use-after-free on removal Each CEQ interrupt handler only schedules eqc->tasklet. The tasklet calls erdma_ceq_completion_handler(), which reads the DMA-coherent EQ ring through get_next_valid_eqe() and updates eq->dbrec through notify_eq(). erdma_ceqs_uninit() frees each CEQ IRQ and then destroys its EQ. free_irq() prevents another hard IRQ and waits for an in-flight handler, but it does not drain a tasklet that the handler already scheduled. The tasklet can therefore access eq->qbuf or eq->dbrec after erdma_eq_destroy() frees them. Clearing ceq_cb->ready does not synchronize with a tasklet that already passed the check at the start of erdma_ceq_completion_handler(). Kill the tasklet after free_irq(), when no handler can schedule it again, and before erdma_ceq_uninit_one() releases the EQ buffers.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/mana_ib: drain QP references after partial table insertion mana_table_store_ud_qp() publishes a QP at its send-queue id before inserting the receive-queue id, dropping the XArray lock between the two xa_insert_irq() calls. A concurrent completion handler can look up the QP and take a transient reference. When the second insertion fails, the rollback erased only the send-queue entry and returned, leaving both the initial table reference and the transient reference outstanding while RDMA core frees the QP, causing a use-after-free. Drain the reference as normal destruction does: drop the initial reference and wait for qp->free, releasing the QP only after every concurrent lookup returns its reference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: firmware: arm_scmi: Fix requested device removal race scmi_protocol_device_unrequest() drops scmi_requested_devices_mtx while notifying listeners but continues to retain the per-protocol list head. When two SCMI drivers for the same protocol unregister concurrently, one thread can remove the final request and free the list head while the other is running its notifier. The latter then dereferences the freed list head after reacquiring the mutex and can free it a second time. Complete the list and IDR updates, including freeing an empty list head, before dropping the mutex. Keep the blocking notifier outside the critical section and retain only the detached request across the callback.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/amd: Fix undefined behavior in devid_write debugfs function When for_each_pci_segment() loop completes without finding a matching segment, the pci_seg pointer is not NULL but points to an invalid memory location (the list head). Accessing pci_seg->id after the loop causes undefined behavior. Fix this by handling the successful case inside the loop and returning -EINVAL after the loop if no matching segment is found.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: fix ABBA deadlock in ext4_xattr_inode_cache_find() Syzbot/stress-ng reported an ABBA deadlock in ext4 when exercising concurrent xattr workloads (using the ea_inode mount/format option). The deadlock occurs between the running transaction and the eviction thread: - Task 1 (stress-ng): Holds a reference to a shared mbcache_entry (ce) and calls ext4_xattr_inode_cache_find() -> ext4_iget() to retrieve the corresponding EA inode. Since the EA inode is currently being evicted, ext4_iget() blocks in __wait_on_freeing_inode() waiting for eviction to complete. - Task 2 (eviction thread): Currently evicting the same EA inode in ext4_evict_ea_inode(). It calls mb_cache_entry_wait_unused(oe) which blocks waiting for Task 1 to release the reference to the mbcache_entry. To break this deadlock, implement a new ext4_iget() configuration flag named EXT4_IGET_NOWAIT. When set, perform a non-blocking lookup of the inode via VFS's find_inode_nowait() API. If the inode is currently being evicted (marked with I_FREEING or I_WILL_FREE) or created (I_CREATING), or if it is not present in the VFS inode cache (cache miss), simply skip it (returning -ENOENT) rather than waiting for eviction/creation to complete, breaking the ABBA cycle. Since we return -ENOENT immediately on a cache miss, we never attempt to allocate a new inode or call iget_locked(), completely eliminating any TOCTOU race window. If the returned inode is I_NEW, wait for its initialization to clear via wait_on_new_inode(). If initialization fails and the inode is unhashed during wait_on_new_inode() waking up (e.g., due to an I/O read error in another thread), safely drop the reference and return -ENOENT. This unhashed check is executed unconditionally on all cache-hit pathways to properly handle concurrent initialization failures. Finally, standard validation checks (including is_bad_inode, EXT4_EA_INODE_FL, file_acl, and xattr flags) are executed as normal inside check_igot_inode() to fully guarantee VFS-layer safety. In ext4_xattr_inode_cache_find(), invoke ext4_iget() with the new EXT4_IGET_NOWAIT flag to perform the non-blocking cache search.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: clear stale xarray tags on folios skipped during writeback In data=journal mode, the writeback thread can hit the WARN_ON_ONCE(sb_rdonly(sb)) in ext4_journal_check_start() while the superblock is being remounted read-only during reboot: Workqueue: writeback wb_workfn (flush-253:0) RIP: 0010:ext4_journal_check_start+0x8b/0xd0 Call Trace: __ext4_journal_start_sb+0x3c/0x1e0 mpage_prepare_extent_to_map+0x4af/0x580 ext4_do_writepages+0x3c0/0x1080 ext4_writepages+0xc8/0x1a0 do_writepages+0xc4/0x180 __writeback_single_inode+0x45/0x2f0 writeback_sb_inodes+0x26b/0x5d0 __writeback_inodes_wb+0x54/0x100 wb_writeback+0x1ac/0x320 wb_workfn+0x394/0x470 And followed by the warning: EXT4-fs warning (device vda1): ext4_evict_inode:195: inode #6263: comm (sd-umount): data will be lost This issue is not reproduced every time, but frequently. The reproduction step is to create a VM with 8 CPUs, 16G memory and setup data=journal: sudo tune2fs -o journal_data /dev/vda1 Run fio: rm -f fiotest fio --name=fiotest --rw=randwrite --bs=4k --runtime=6 --ioengine=libaio --iodepth=256 --numjobs=8 --filename=fiotest --filesize=30G --group_reporting Reboot the VM, and check the console output from: virsh console testvm But there is no dirty inode, folio_clear_dirty_for_io clears PG_dirty but leaves tags PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY and PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE set which are only cleared by __folio_start_writeback. In data=journal mode, jbd2 checkpoints the journalled data to its final location and clears its own dirty flag without touching folio PG_dirty or xarray dirty flags. The commit f4a2b42e7891 ("ext4: fix stale xarray tags after writeback") fixes when PG_dirty is still set but there is no dirty page. Another case is PG_dirty is cleared, but PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY and PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE is still set. In this case, writeback thread checks clean folio and skips it in mpage_prepare_extent_to_map: if (!folio_test_dirty(folio) || ... folio_unlcok(folio); continue And never reaches ext4_bio_write_folio where the commit f4a2b42e7891 clears the stale xarray tags. Print debug logs after the filesystem is remounted read-only: writepages RDONLY nrpages=2048 dirtytag=1 wbtag=0 towrite=1 sync=0 And all folios are actually clean: folio idx=3 dirty=0 wb=0 checked=0 dirtybuf=0 jbddirty=0 mapped=1 ... We need to clear the xarray stale tags for such clean folios by cycling them through writeback in the skip path, the same way f4a2b42e7891 does in ext4_bio_write_folio.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: drain in-flight DIO before buffered write fallback generic/746 started failing intermittently on ext3 (no-extent inodes). The test triggers 'Page cache invalidation failure on direct I/O' warnings and subsequent fsync returns -EIO. Adding a 50ms delay between ext4_buffered_write_iter() and filemap_write_and_wait_range() in ext4_dio_write_iter() makes the race almost always reproducible. On no-extent inodes, DIO writes to holes cannot use unwritten extents, so ext4_iomap_alloc() leaves m_flags=0 and ext4_map_blocks() returns 0. The iomap layer then returns -ENOTBLK, causing fallback to buffered I/O. The fallback path in ext4_dio_write_iter() calls ext4_buffered_write_iter() which dirties pages, then does flush and invalidate. However, there's an unprotected window between ext4_buffered_write_iter() returning (with inode lock released) and the subsequent flush+invalidate. Concurrent async DIO completions from other threads can run kiocb_invalidate_post_direct_write() during this window. If pages have been re-dirtied, post-invalidation finds dirty pages and triggers the warning, setting -EIO in the error sequence. Consider a file with two 4k extents: [hole][written]. Thread A does DIO to the written extent, while thread B does DIO spanning both: kworker A (4k DIO, allocated block) kworker B (8k DIO, fallback) ----------------------------------- ---------------------------- inode_lock_shared() inode_lock_shared() iomap_dio_rw(): iomap_dio_rw(): kiocb_invalidate_pages -> clean iomap_begin -> -ENOTBLK submit_bio (async) dio->size = 0 inode_unlock_shared() inode_unlock_shared() [bio pending in block layer] /* fallback: lock released */ ext4_buffered_write_iter() inode_lock(exclusive) generic_perform_write() -> dirty pages [0, 8k] inode_unlock(exclusive) /* pages dirty, no lock */ [bio completes] filemap_write_and_wait_range() iomap_dio_complete() -> flush dirty pages kiocb_invalidate_post_direct_write() invalidate_mapping_pages() invalidate_inode_pages2_range() -> finds dirty page! -> dio_warn_stale_pagecache() -> errseq_set(-EIO) This issue can be triggered through normal I/O paths, not just intentionally overlapping DIO writes from userspace. For example, generic/746 uses a loop device where multiple kworkers issue concurrent I/O to the backing file. Additionally, when block_size < folio_size, non-overlapping DIO writes that share a large folio can also trigger the race. Add inode_dio_wait() in ext4_buffered_write_iter() before ext4_write_checks() to drain all in-flight DIO. This ensures that all DIO clears existing pages before submitting IO (via kiocb_invalidate_pages()), all BIO waits for all DIO to complete (via inode_dio_wait()), and ext4_write_checks() observes the inode size after all completed DIO so that ext4_block_zero_eof() does not race with in-flight DIO, thus eliminating the race.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ath6kl: avoid buffer overreads in WMI event handlers The following WMI event handlers currently read from the event buffer without first verifying that the message was large enough to hold the expected event: ath6kl_wmi_scan_complete_rx() ath6kl_wmi_addba_req_event_rx() ath6kl_wmi_delba_req_event_rx() Add length checks to prevent overread.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ath12k: Avoid buffer overread in ath12k_wmi_op_rx() Currently, in ath12k_wmi_op_rx(), the firmware buffer is read without first verifying that the buffer has enough data to hold a header. This could result in a buffer overread. Update the logic to verify the buffer contains at least enough data to hold a wmi_cmd_hdr before reading from the buffer. Tested-on: WCN7850 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HMT.1.1.c7-00108-QCAHMTSWPL_V1.0_V2.0_SILICONZ_UPSTREAM-3

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ath11k: Avoid buffer overread in ath11k_wmi_tlv_op_rx() Currently, in ath11k_wmi_tlv_op_rx(), the firmware buffer is read without first verifying that the buffer has enough data to hold a header. This could result in a buffer overread. Add an upfront length check before dereferencing skb->data as a wmi_cmd_hdr. The check is placed before the trace_ath11k_wmi_event() call to preserve the existing trace semantics (tracing the full raw WMI event including the header), unlike the analogous ath12k fix which could use skb_pull_data() directly. Compile tested only.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: fix buffer_head leak in ext4_init_orphan_info ext4_init_orphan_info() reads orphan file blocks with ext4_bread() and stores the returned buffer_head in oi->of_binfo[i].ob_bh. If ext4_bread() succeeds but the orphan block magic or checksum validation fails, the function jumps to out_free. However, the old out_free loop starts releasing buffers from i - 1, so the current buffer_head at index i is skipped. This leaks the buffer_head reference obtained by ext4_bread() on the bad magic and bad checksum error paths. Fix this by tracking the number of successfully read buffer_heads and releasing exactly those buffer_heads on the error path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: firmware: arm_scmi: Roll back partial protocol table registration scmi_protocol_table_register() can leave earlier requests registered when a later entry in the same ID table fails. Each request retains a pointer to the driver's ID table, so a failed module load can leave a dangling pointer after the module storage is released. Unrequest only the successfully registered prefix, in reverse order, before returning the failure. Leave the failed entry and the remaining entries untouched because matching requests can be owned by another driver.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: firmware: arm_scmi: Unrequest devices if driver registration fails scmi_driver_register() requests protocol devices before registering the driver. If driver_register() fails, those requests remain in the global IDR and retain pointers to the module's ID table. Once the failed module load releases that storage, later request matching or SCMI device creation can dereference the stale pointers. Unrequest the complete protocol table before returning the registration failure. At this point table registration succeeded, so every entry is owned by the current registration attempt.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: exfat: fix valid_size extension over a shared writable mapping When a shared writable mapping has its valid_size extended by a buffered write or a page fault, exfat zeroes the page-cache gap below the new valid_size. A store through the mapping can race with this zeroing and be overwritten. Fix this by zeroing the gap lazily. Drop ->map_pages so that every first write fault goes through exfat_page_mkwrite(), which advances valid_size to cover the faulting page. With fault-around enabled, a store could install a writable PTE, skip ->page_mkwrite(), and land past valid_size without advancing it. Extending valid_size one faulting page at a time also leaves never-written pages in a large mapping alone. The gap is filled with block granularity, zeroing only the not-uptodate blocks and preserving blocks that may hold data stored through the mapping. On the buffered-write path the invalidate lock is held and the gap is unmapped before zeroing, so a racing store re-faults and, under the inode lock, completes only after the gap has been zeroed and valid_size covers it.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Fix CFI mismatch in task work callback BPF subprograms use the bpf_callback_t ABI, but task work invokes the callback through a three-argument function pointer. This trips kCFI. Store and invoke the callback as bpf_callback_t.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cxl/region: Fix use-after-free in find_pos_and_ways() error path The error path releases its reference to a switch decoder before logging an error that includes the decoder name. If the released reference is the last one, the decoder can be freed before the error message accesses its name. Drop the reference after the error is reported.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: liveupdate: Remember FLB retrieve() status LUO keeps track of successful retrieve attempts on an FLB. It does so to avoid multiple retrievals of the same FLB. Multiple retrievals cause problems because once the FLB is retrieved, the serialized data structures are likely freed and the FLB is likely in a very different state from what the code expects. All this works well when retrieve succeeds. When it fails, luo_flb_retrieve_one() returns the error immediately, without ever storing anywhere that a retrieve was attempted or what its error code was. If the user attempts to retrieve another file registered with the same FLB, LUO will attempt to call the FLB's retrieve() callback again. The retry is problematic for much of the same reasons listed above. The FLB is likely in a very different state than what the retrieve logic normally expects (e.g. some KHO pages may have already been restored and freed). There is no sane way of attempting the retrieve again. Remember the error retrieve returned and directly return it on a retry. This is done by changing the retrieved bool to a retrieve_status integer. A value of 0 means retrieve was never attempted, a positive value means it succeeded, and a negative value means it failed and the error code is the value. This is similar to commit f85b1c6af5bc ("liveupdate: luo_file: remember retrieve() status") which did the same for LUO files.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pinctrl: mediatek: use devm_gpiochip_add_data() for GPIO chip The gpio_chip is allocated with device-managed memory but registered with the non-managed gpiochip_add_data(). This was harmless while the drivers were built-in, but once they can be built as modules and unbound/rmmod'd, devm frees the gpio_chip's memory while it is still registered, causing a use-after-free. Register it with devm_gpiochip_add_data() so it shares the same device-managed lifecycle, which also lets the manual gpiochip_remove() error paths go away.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pinctrl: mediatek: free EINT resources on unbind mtk_eint_do_init() creates an IRQ domain, populates it with a mapping for every EINT line and installs a chained handler on the parent interrupt, but none of these are ever released. This was harmless while the drivers were built-in, but now that they can be built as modules and unbound/rmmod'd it leaves behind a dangling IRQ domain, interrupt mappings whose chip data points at freed memory, and a chained handler that keeps firing into that freed data. The plain allocations in mtk_eint_do_init() already use the device-managed devm_*() helpers, so tear the remaining resources down the same way: register a devm action that detaches the chained handler, waits for any in-flight handler to finish, disposes of the per-line mappings and removes the IRQ domain. This mirrors the device-managed lifecycle adopted for the GPIO chip and keeps the whole EINT setup self-cleaning on unbind.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: ufs: core: Validate string descriptors The string descriptor length includes a two-byte header while the UTF-16 payload starts after it. utf16s_to_utf8s() expects a count of UTF-16 code units, not bytes. Passing the payload byte count can make it read beyond the descriptor buffer. Validate that the payload has an even byte count, pass a code-unit count to the converter, and allocate sufficient UTF-8 output space. The raw string buffer starts after the descriptor header but its size is bLength. Copying bLength bytes from that pointer can read beyond the response buffer. Allocate a zeroed bLength-sized buffer and copy only the UTF-16 payload. This preserves the raw buffer size consumed by the RPMB device-ID ABI while avoiding the overread.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: ufs: Avoid NULL CQE dereference when reporting invalid tags The single-doorbell completion path can call ufshcd_compl_one_cqe() with a NULL CQE. If no command is associated with the completion tag, the warning message dereferences the CQE while reporting the error. Avoid that dereference and include the invalid tag in the warning.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: ufs: core: Validate connected lane counts The connected lane count is used by TX equalization code to index arrays sized by UFS_MAX_LANES. Reject zero and out-of-range RX or TX lane counts before they can be propagated.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: ufs: debugfs: Reserve space for a string terminator ufs_saved_err_write() copies user input into a zero-initialized stack buffer and passes it to kstrtoint(). A write that fills the entire buffer overwrites its only terminator. Reject an input whose length leaves no room for the trailing NUL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: crypto: keembay - Initialize completion before requesting IRQ kmb_ocs_aes_probe() requests the device IRQ before initializing irq_completion. Once the handler is registered it can run immediately, and ocs_aes_irq_handler() unconditionally calls complete(). An interrupt in this window would therefore use an uninitialized completion. Initialize the completion before requesting the IRQ, as the sibling OCS HCU and ECC drivers already do.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: isofs: release zisofs block pointer buffer head zisofs_fill_pages() reads the compressed block pointer table. The error paths release the current buffer_head, the loop also releases the old buffer_head when it advances. However, the success path leaves the last buffer_head referenced. Release it before returning success.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: spi: oc-tiny: switch to managed controller allocation The controller is allocated with the non-managed spi_alloc_host() while the interrupt is registered with devm_request_irq(). During removal, spi_bitbang_stop() only unregisters the controller; the subsequent spi_controller_put() then frees the controller together with its embedded driver-private devdata, which is the IRQ handler's dev_id. The devm_request_irq() release action (free_irq()), which drains the handler, does not run until after .remove() returns. A late or latched interrupt can therefore reach tiny_spi_irq() and dereference already-freed memory (e.g. hw->base). Switch to devm_spi_alloc_host() so that the devres LIFO order releases the controller only after free_irq() has drained the handler, and drop the now-redundant spi_controller_put() from .remove(). The probe error path is simplified to direct returns. This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sched_ext: Abort directly from the hardlockup handler scx_hardlockup() defers the abort to an irq_work because exit claiming used to take scx_sched_lock and couldn't run from NMI. The deferral is now unnecessary - claiming is NMI-safe and asserting ->aborting is exactly what breaks the live-locks that hard-lock CPUs. Call handle_lockup() directly and drop the irq_work. This also makes the self-detected case recoverable: the perf watchdog fires on the hard-locked CPU itself, where a queued irq_work never runs with IRQs off. Also fix the return value: %true used to be returned whenever sched_ext was loaded, suppressing the kernel's hardlockup report even when the abort was refused. Return %true only when this call initiated the abort.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/tegra241-cmdqv: Publish an LVCMDQ only after it is fully initialized tegra241_vintf_init_lvcmdq() stores the freshly allocated vcmdq pointer to the vintf->lvcmdqs[] array, before tegra241_vcmdq_alloc_smmu_cmdq() builds the vcmdq->cmdq. The error ISR dereferences that cmdq, so a latched LVCMDQ error (e.g. one inherited across a kexec) firing in this window would make tegra241_vintf0_handle_error() pass the still-zeroed arm_smmu_cmdq down to __arm_smmu_cmdq_skip_err(), dereferencing NULL queue register pointers. Drop the store from tegra241_vintf_init_lvcmdq() and publish the vcmdq at the end of the allocation instead, with an smp_store_release() that pairs with an smp_load_acquire() in the ISR, which can see a fully built LVCMDQ or NULL. The user-owned LVCMDQ allocation moves accordingly, publishing the vcmdq once tegra241_vcmdq_hw_init_user() succeeds, using a plain store since a user VINTF's lvcmdqs[] has no lockless reader -- the error ISR only walks the VINTF0 array.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/tegra241-cmdqv: Don't run the error ISR before probe sets up vintfs __tegra241_cmdqv_probe() requests the error IRQ before it has allocated the cmdqv->vintfs array and set cmdqv->num_vintfs. A CMDQV left enabled with a latched error across a kexec fires the IRQ as soon as it is requested, and tegra241_cmdqv_isr() then walks the uninitialized cmdqv->vintfs array. Request the IRQ only after cmdqv->vintfs is allocated and zeroed, so that a latched interrupt firing early runs the ISR against a valid array of NULL slots that it safely skips.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/tegra241-cmdqv: Free the error IRQ before tearing down VINTFs tegra241_cmdqv_remove() tears each VINTF down first, then calls free_irq(). Tearing a VINTF down frees vintf0 and clears cmdqv->vintfs[0]. An error in that window makes tegra241_cmdqv_isr() read the stale slot and hand it to tegra241_vintf0_handle_error(), which dereferences a NULL or freed pointer. Free the IRQ before tearing the VINTFs down. free_irq() waits for in-flight handlers to finish and blocks new ones, so no ISR can observe a VINTF as it is torn down. Note: a user-owned VINTF (viommu) could outlive this teardown, which unmaps cmdqv->base and frees cmdqv->vintfs, so a later viommu close then touches freed memory. This is neither introduced nor fixed here: a physical IOMMU is not a pluggable device, so iommufd by design holds no reference on the one behind a viommu, and this teardown is not expected while that viommu is still alive.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/tegra241-cmdqv: Fix VINTF0 leak on the init-failure path tegra241_cmdqv_init_structures() allocates VINTF0 with kzalloc_obj(), inits it, and preallocates its logical VCMDQs. Two of its error paths leak. When tegra241_cmdqv_init_vintf() fails it returns before VINTF0 reaches the cmdqv->vintfs[] array, so the devres unwind on probe failure cannot reach it; free it directly there. A later VCMDQ preallocation failure instead leaves VINTF0 published, and so this time the unwind does reach tegra241_cmdqv_remove_vintf(), which then frees it from vintf->hyp_own. But tegra241_vintf_hw_init() sets that flag only afterward, from a HW read-back, so the still-uninited VINTF0 reads as guest-owned and leaks, with mutex_destroy() and ida_destroy() run on fields it never set up. Decide ownership from vintf->idx instead, the index assigned when its id is allocated: idx 0 is the kernel-owned VINTF0, while idx >= 1 marks a guest VINTF. So the in-kernel free decision in tegra241_cmdqv_remove_vintf() and tegra241_vintf_free_lvcmdq() now keys on idx too, and hyp_own stays a pure HW-readback state.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: clk: mediatek: pllfh: Fix IO remapping leak in register_pllfhs error path When mtk_clk_register_pllfhs function fails to register a PLL, it unregisters all PLLs and cleans up itself in its error path before returning, so the function callers don't need to do it. But contrary to mtk_clk_unregister_pllfhs function, that does almost the same sequence, it does not free the IO memory mapped on fhctl node, leading to a leak. Fix this leak by factorizing the cleanup sequence in a new private function and use it both mtk_clk_register_pllfhs and mtk_clk_unregister_pllfhs functions. Also, change the loop index start value to avoid the -1 operation on index at each loop.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: PCI: Fix UAF when probe runs concurrent to dyn ID removal Dynamic IDs are only guaranteed to be valid when dynids.lock is held, as remove_id_store() can free the node. Thus, make a copy in pci_match_device(). Also, clarify that the id parameter is only valid during probe.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nilfs2: fix BUG in nilfs_copy_dirty_pages() on dirty state mismatch Syzbot reported a kernel BUG triggered within nilfs_copy_dirty_pages(), which copies dirty DAT file folios/pages to its shadow page cache. The BUG occurs when a retrieved dirty folio/page unexpectedly loses its 'dirty' status. This issue arises because, since the commit referenced below, the 'dirty' flag of a folio/page can be cleared asynchronously after the filesystem detects metadata corruption and transitions to read-only mode. Resolve the issue by returning an -EROFS error if the filesystem has transitioned to read-only mode. Also change the behavior to issue a kernel warning only once instead of triggering a kernel BUG when this unexpected 'dirty' state is detected while the filesystem is not in read-only mode.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/cxgb4: Fix dereg_skb leak and double free in write_tpt_entry() When the device is in the fatal error state, write_tpt_entry() returns -EIO before handing the caller's preallocated skb to the transmit path; its allocation-failure returns do the same. c4iw_dereg_mr() ignores the error and frees mhp, leaking mhp->dereg_skb. c4iw_get_dma_mr() instead frees the skb a second time after dereg_mem() already consumed it, a double free. Make write_tpt_entry() the sole owner of a non-NULL skb, freeing it on every return preceding handoff to c4iw_ofld_send(): fatal error, tpt and stag allocation failure. c4iw_ofld_send() consumes the skb on success and error alike, so drop the redundant kfree_skb() in c4iw_get_dma_mr() after dereg_mem().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/cxgb4: free STAG index when TPT entry write fails write_tpt_entry() allocates a new STAG index with c4iw_get_resource() and bumps stats.stag.cur before programming the entry. When write_adapter_mem() fails, it returns the error without releasing the index or reversing the statistic. No MR is inserted into rhp->mrs, so deregistration never reclaims it, leaking the index until device teardown. Record whether this call allocated the index and, on a failed write, return it to tpt_table and decrement stats.stag.cur. Key the rollback on both the write error and that flag, not the error alone: a non-reset update carries a caller-owned STAG that this call did not allocate and must not free.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nvmet: fix return status of RMI log page on allocation failure nvmet_execute_get_log_page_rmi() leaves 'status' holding NVME_SC_SUCCESS (set by the successful nvmet_req_find_ns() call) when the kzalloc() for the log buffer fails. It then jumps to the out label and completes the request with a success status, so the host is told the command succeeded while no data was transferred. Initialize 'status' to NVME_SC_INTERNAL, matching the smart log handler, so an allocation failure is reported as an internal error.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nvme-fc: unmap cmd_iu DMA on rsp_iu mapping failure in init_request __nvme_fc_init_request() maps cmd_iu and then rsp_iu for DMA. If the rsp_iu mapping fails, the original code only recorded the error and fell through: it left the already-mapped cmd_iu unmapped and still marked the op as FCPOP_STATE_IDLE before returning. Since blk-mq does not call .exit_request() when .init_request() fails, the cmd_iu mapping is leaked for every op whose rsp_iu mapping fails. Jump to an error path on rsp_iu mapping failure that unmaps cmd_iu and returns the error without marking the op idle, so it stays in the FCPOP_STATE_UNINIT state set by the initial memset().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: spi: davinci: switch to managed controller allocation The controller is allocated with the non-managed spi_alloc_host() while the interrupt is registered with devm_request_threaded_irq(). During removal, spi_bitbang_stop() only unregisters the controller; the subsequent spi_controller_put() then frees the controller together with its embedded davinci_spi devdata, which is the IRQ handler's dev_id. The devm_request_threaded_irq() release action (free_irq()), which drains the handler, does not run until after .remove() returns. A late or latched interrupt can therefore reach davinci_spi_irq() and dereference already-freed memory. Switch to devm_spi_alloc_host() so that the devres LIFO order releases the controller only after free_irq() has drained the handler, and drop the now-redundant spi_controller_put() from .remove(). The probe error path is simplified to direct returns. The clock is acquired with devm_clk_get_enabled(), which is registered after the IRQ and thus released before it by the devres LIFO order. Drain the interrupt explicitly with devm_free_irq() before disabling the controller so that a late interrupt cannot access the registers of a clock-gated controller. This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: qcom: iris: handle runtime PM resume failure in core deinit Check the return value of pm_runtime_resume_and_get() in iris_core_deinit(). If runtime PM resume fails, skip hardware power-off operations but still perform software teardown and state transition. Also skip the corresponding pm_runtime_put_sync() call to avoid unbalanced runtime PM references.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: platform/chrome: cros_ec_debugfs: Unregister panic notifier cros_ec_debugfs_probe() registers notifier_panic with the EC panic notifier chain. The remove path tears down debugfs and the console log, but leaves the notifier registered. A later panic notification can call back into the removed instance and queue work that accesses released data. Unregister the panic notifier before tearing down the debugfs and console log state. This issue was found by a static analysis tool.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: block: fix dio leak on metadata mapping error A failed integrity mapping holds a dio reference, so we need to go through the full bio ending in case there were previously submitted bio's in the sequence.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: power: supply: isp1704_charger: cancel work on remove The USB notifier and initial VBUS detection can schedule isp->work. The remove path unregisters the notifier and power supply, but does not wait for queued or running work before tearing down the power supply state. Cancel the work after unregistering the notifier. Do this before unregistering the power supply. This issue was found by a static analysis tool.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: power: supply: sc2731_charger: cancel work on remove The USB notifier and initial charger detection can schedule info->work. The remove path unregisters the notifier, but does not cancel queued or running work before the devm-allocated driver data is released. Set the platform drvdata used by remove, then cancel the work after unregistering the notifier. This issue was found by a static analysis tool.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Fix potential UAF in bpf_netns_link_update_prog In bpf_netns_link_update_prog, the checks for old_prog and prog type are currently performed locklessly before acquiring netns_bpf_mutex. This creates a race condition that can lead to a UAF issue. If two threads concurrently execute BPF_LINK_UPDATE on the same netns link, the following execution path can trigger a UAF: CPU0 CPU1 bpf_netns_link_update_prog if (old_prog && old_prog != link->prog) return -EPERM; bpf_netns_link_update_prog if (old_prog && old_prog != link->prog) ... old_prog = xchg(&link->prog, new_prog); bpf_prog_put(old_prog); if (new_prog->type != link->prog->type) <-- trigger UAF Fix this by moving the old_prog and prog->type checks inside the netns_bpf_mutex critical section. Meanwhile, use guard() to simplify lock management and avoid all the goto jumping.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: lib/test_hmm: fail dmirror_fault() when the mirrored mm is gone dmirror_fault() is called from the dmirror_read() and dmirror_write() retry loops after dmirror_do_read() or dmirror_do_write() finds a missing device page table entry. If the mirrored mm has already exited, mmget_not_zero() fails. The current code returns 0 in that case, which tells the caller that faulting succeeded even though no page was faulted and no device page table entry was installed. The caller then retries the same address, hits -ENOENT again, and can loop forever without making progress. Return -EFAULT instead, so the ioctl fails when the mirrored mm is no longer faultable.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: md/bitmap: resume array on backlog_store() error path backlog_store() suspends the array before checking whether a write-mostly device exists. If no such device exists, the error path only unlocks reconfig_mutex and leaves the array suspended, blocking subsequent I/O. Use mddev_unlock_and_resume() to release both states.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: md: scope memalloc_noio to allocation critical sections Storing a memalloc_noio_save() token in mddev->noio_flags lets one task save the token and another task restore it. With concurrent suspend sysfs writes, task A can enter PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO, return to userspace still in that scope, and later task B can restore A's saved token. Avoid tying the token lifetime to mddev. Keep mddev_suspend() and mddev_resume() only responsible for array suspension, and enter PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO only in the MD paths that allocate memory after the array has been suspended. Restore the token before resuming the array. A reproducer repeatedly writes suspend_lo and suspend_hi from concurrent workers and checks each worker's /proc/self/stat flags before and after the sysfs write.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: md/raid1: create serial pool adding rdev to array with serialize_policy=1 The following bug has been observed with kernel 7.1.3 after adding a new rdev to an existing RAID1 array with serialize_policy enabled: Oops: 0002 [#1] CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 19639 Comm: ext4lazyinit Not tainted 7.1.3-1-default RIP: _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x27/0x50 CR2: 0000000000004960 Call Trace: wait_for_serialization+0xb9/0x260 [raid1] raid1_make_request+0x762/0xaff [raid1] md_handle_request+0x1c9/0x2e0 [md_mod] The raid1.c code calls wait_for_serialization() if the MD_SERIALIZE_POLICY is set, and wait_for_serialization assumes that rdev->serial is initialized. Normally this will be the case for arrays that have the serialize_policy sysfs attribute set to 1. But when a new rdev is added to an existing array in bind_rdev_to_array(), the condition at mddev_create_serial_pool() causes creation of rdev->serial to be skipped. Fix it.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: mt76x02: do not WARN on invalid rx descriptor length The MPDU length in the rx descriptor comes from the hardware. In monitor mode with the fcsfail filter enabled, the hardware passes up corrupted frames, and a corrupted frame can report a length larger than the received buffer. The bounds check correctly discards such frames, but its WARN_ON_ONCE wrapper means any over-the-air garbage frame taints the kernel, and panics it on the first such frame when panic_on_warn is set. Drop the WARN and discard the frame silently, matching what commit c2d4c8723dbf ("mt76x2: remove some harmless WARN_ONs in tx status and rx path") did for the neighboring rx and tx status paths. Observed immediately on rx with an MT7612U in fcsfail monitor mode on a busy channel.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: mt792x: Fix memory leak in SDIO TX path When tx_prepare_skb() returns an error in the SDIO TX path, the skb is not freed, leading to a memory leak. This can occur when zero-length frames (such as WNM NULL frames) are dropped to prevent potential hardware TX hangs. Fix this by properly releasing the skb with ieee80211_tx_status_ext() when tx_prepare_skb() fails.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: fix RX data queuing of RRO 3.0 For RRO 3.0, RX data released from a RRO data queue should be put to the indicator queue. The frames are processed and completed in the context of the indicator queue NAPI, which only polls skbs queued on the MT_RXQ_RRO_IND list; frames queued under the data queue id are left sitting on that list until the data queue NAPI happens to run, stalling and reordering RX data.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: mt7996: fix MLD ID in MAC TXD and HIF TXP Problem: MCU command timeout while the firmware state is normal, and the firmware keeps showing the error log "ERROR!! NO PAUSE...". Root cause: If the MLD_ID field in the TXD is neither the primary link id nor the secondary link id, it may lead to a firmware busy loop when the third link is in power saving mode. Remap frames directed to a third link to the primary link wcid. Since TX status events and txfree completions carry the wcid the firmware saw, use the remapped wcid for packet id tracking and non-AQL packet accounting as well, while the frame keeps its original link context for addressing, band and OMAC selection.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: fix non-AQL packet accounting for MLO stations __mt76_tx_queue_skb() overrides the wcid passed by the driver with sta->drv_priv, so the wcid might incorrectly be changed after TX, causing wcid->non_aql_packets to be counted on the wrong wcid. For example, on the AP side, if a station's setup link is the 5G link and the station uses 2G to transmit a frame, the value of non_aql_packets is increased on the 5G wcid but decreased on the 2G wcid. Once the inflated counter exceeds MT_MAX_NON_AQL_PKT, the TX scheduler permanently refuses to service the station. Drop the reassignment and account on the wcid used for transmission. This also records the actual wcid in the queue entry.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: mt7996: validate RX band_idx before dereferencing phys[] band_idx comes from a 2-bit descriptor field (0-3) and was used directly to index dev->mt76.phys[] (size __MT_MAX_BAND == 3) and dereference the result. A corrupt or reserved descriptor value could index out of bounds or hit a NULL phy on parts with fewer bands. Reject invalid band indices, mirroring mt7996_rx_get_wcid().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: mt7915: clear wcid mask under mutex after RCU pointer clear mt7915_remove_interface() cleared the wcid mask bit with no lock held and before clearing the RCU wcid pointer. The mask is a non-atomic RMW shared with the allocators, which all run under dev->mt76.mutex; on DBDC the two wiphys share one mt76_dev, so this raced add_interface/sta_add on the other band and could leak or double-hand-out a wcid. Clearing the bit before the RCU pointer also let a concurrent allocation reuse the index and publish its wcid, which the subsequent NULL assignment then wiped. Move the clear into the existing mutex section, after the RCU pointer is cleared.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: mt7996: bound TLV walk in mt7996_mcu_get_chip_config The response TLV loop advanced by tlv->len without a minimum, so a theoretical firmware response containing a zero-length TLV could spin forever, hanging the CPU during device probe. The u32 payload was also read without bounds checking. Reject a short fixed field, stop on a TLV whose length underruns the header or overruns the skb.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: mt7915: unwind state on add_interface failure When mt76_wcid_alloc() fails, mt7915_add_interface() returned without clearing the vif_mask/omac_mask bits it had already set, without removing the firmware dev info added earlier, and without clearing a monitor_vif pointer to the vif mac80211 is about to free. mac80211 does not call remove_interface() for a failed add, so the indices and firmware dev entry leaked permanently and testmode could dereference the stale monitor_vif. Add a proper error unwind.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: mt7996: reserve space for the CSA-abort countdown TLV When a CSA countdown is active, mt7996_mcu_beacon_cntdwn() emits two bss_bcn_cntdwn_tlv entries (the CSA countdown and the CCA-abort BCC), but MT7996_BEACON_UPDATE_SIZE only reserved one. With MBSSID enabled and a near-maximum beacon template the extra 8 bytes could push the offload command past MT7996_MAX_BSS_OFFLOAD_SIZE and trigger skb_over_panic(). Reserve room for both countdown TLVs.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: cancel reset and rc work on device unregister Both drivers cancelled dump_work on unregister but left reset_work and rc_work to be flushed only by destroy_workqueue() in mt76_free_device(), which runs after the hw is unregistered and the hardware stopped. A reset_work that fires in that window calls ieee80211_restart_hw() and re-arms mac_work on an unregistered hw, and rc_work touches station state being torn down. Cancel both up front, alongside dump_work.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ACPI: processor: Unregister cpufreq notifier on init failure acpi_processor_driver_init() registers the cpufreq policy notifier before registering the ACPI processor driver and setting up CPU hotplug state. If driver_register() or cpuhp_setup_state() fails, the error path only unregisters the ACPI processor driver and the idle driver. The cpufreq notifier remains registered even though initialization failed. Mirror the module exit path on the init failure path and unregister the cpufreq notifier when it has been registered.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/msm/dsi: Drop dev_pm_opp_set_rate(0) dev_pm_opp_set_rate(0) removes the vote specified in required-opps but does not actually park the clock, making it run without the necessary power backing. Drop the explicit call to it. Every call site of ops->link_clk_disable() is followed by pm_runtime_put(), so the power vote will be rescinded if deemed safe.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ath11k: fix leak in ath11k_service_ready_ext_event() Currently, during ath11k_service_ready_ext_event() processing, svc_rdy_ext.mac_phy_caps can be allocated during TLV parsing. This is a temporary allocation that is freed on the success path, but not on the error path. If parsing succeeds far enough to allocate mac_phy_caps and then fails on a later TLV, the allocation leaks. So free the allocation on the error path. Compile tested only.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: regulator: core: use system_freezable_wq for init complete work schedule_delayed_work() uses system_wq, which is non-freezable, allowing regulator_init_complete_work to run concurrently with system suspend. This work fires ~30s after boot to disable unused regulators via I2C. When it races with PM suspend, the I2C adapter may already be suspended, triggering a -ESHUTDOWN warning in __i2c_transfer(): WARNING: ... at __i2c_transfer+0x36c/0x3c8 Call trace: __i2c_transfer i2c_transfer regmap_i2c_write _regmap_update_bits regulator_disable_regmap _regulator_do_disable regulator_late_cleanup regulator_init_complete_work_function process_one_work Switch to system_freezable_wq so the work is frozen before any device is suspended, eliminating the race.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Reject >8 byte return values on return-reading trampoline paths btf_distill_func_proto() builds the function model used for the fentry/fexit/fmod_ret/fsession trampolines and struct_ops. It has accepted a 16-byte __int128 return value since the trampoline was introduced: __get_type_size() returns the integer's type size, and the return-type check only rejected ret < 0. But the BPF trampoline preserves only 8 bytes of the return value (RAX on x86, i.e. R0). For an attach type that reads the target's return value the second half (RDX / R3) is neither saved nor restored, so a program attached to a function returning a 16-byte value corrupts the value seen by the real caller and itself observes only half of it. struct_ops trampolines have the same limitation. This affects the attach types that read the target's return value: fexit, fmod_ret and fsession (plus the _multi variants of fexit and fsession), and struct_ops. fentry/fentry_multi run before the target returns and are unaffected. Reject a >8 byte return value for these attach types in bpf_check_attach_target() and bpf_check_attach_btf_id_multi(), and for struct_ops in bpf_struct_ops_desc_init().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: mt7996: free vif links after clearing wcid entries on full reset mt7996_mac_reset_vif_iter() queues non-default vif links for kfree_rcu while dev->wcid[] still holds pointers to the wcid embedded in each freed link; mt76_reset_device() then dereferences those entries and runs mt76_wcid_cleanup() on them. If a grace period elapses in between, the cleanup operates on freed memory. Run mt76_reset_device() first, so the wcid entries are cleaned up and cleared while the links are still valid.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: mt7996: clear stale link state on full reset After a full chip reset, mac80211 reconfig replays interface, link and channel context setup. mt7996_vif_link_add() short-circuits when the link_id is still marked in mvif->valid_links, a state introduced for postponing link teardown to interface removal. The reset path frees the link structures without clearing those bits, so the replayed setup never re-creates dev_info/bss_info/STA records in the restarted firmware and never re-registers the link wcid, leaving the device inoperative. The reset path also leaks every allocated MLD index: per-link indices and the per-vif group/remap indices are re-allocated from scratch during reconfig, but the old bits stay set in the masks, so repeated full resets exhaust the index space. Clear valid_links in the reset vif iterator and reset the MLD index masks alongside the existing omac_mask clearing.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: mt7915: fix double hif2 init on the non-WED path mt7915_pci_init_hif2() was called unconditionally and again inside the WED-inactive branch. The helper increments the global hif_idx, writes the PCIe RECOG_ID register and takes a get_device() reference via mt7915_pci_get_hif2(), while removal only drops one reference. On non-WED dual-hif hardware this double-incremented hif_idx, wrote RECOG_ID twice and leaked a device reference. Only the call inside the WED-inactive branch is correct; drop the unconditional one. hif2 is already initialised to NULL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: mt7915: release hif2 reference on probe IRQ failure The hif2 reference obtained by mt7915_pci_init_hif2() is only released on error paths that key off dev->hif2, which is not assigned until after the IRQ setup. If pci_alloc_irq_vectors() or the primary devm_request_irq() fails, the reference leaks. Drop it explicitly on those paths via mt7915_put_hif2().
