slip: fix use-after-free in sl_sync()
slip_devs[] stores bare net_device pointers and takes no reference on
them. sl_sync() and sl_alloc() walk that table from slip_open() under
rtnl_lock(), while an entry is dropped by sl_free_netdev(), which
sl_setup() installs as dev->priv_destructor.
priv_destructor is called from netdev_run_todo(), which deliberately
runs with the RTNL semaphore released so that it can sleep while waiting
for the device refcount to drop:
/* Snapshot list, allow later requests */
list_replace_init(&net_todo_list, &list);
__rtnl_unlock();
...
if (dev->priv_destructor)
dev->priv_destructor(dev); /* slip_devs[i] = NULL */
if (dev->needs_free_netdev)
free_netdev(dev);
...
/* Free network device */
kobject_put(&dev->dev.kobj);
So rtnl_lock() does not serialise slip_open() against the teardown at
all. sl_sync() can load slip_devs[i] while the entry is still published
and dereference it after netdev_run_todo() has run the destructor and
released the device:
CPU0 (slip_open) CPU1 (slip_close)
unregister_netdev()
rtnl_unlock()
netdev_run_todo()
__rtnl_unlock()
rtnl_lock()
sl_sync()
dev = slip_devs[i]
priv_destructor(dev)
slip_devs[i] = NULL
kobject_put(&dev->dev.kobj)
/* dev is freed */
sl = netdev_priv(dev)
if (sl->tty || sl->leased) /* use-after-free */

Commit e58c19124189 ("slip: Fix use-after-free Read in slip_open") fixed
a different source of stale entries - a device left in slip_devs[] after
slip_open() freed it on the registration error path - and does not
address this race, which is why the report survives it.
Drop the entry from ndo_uninit instead. unregister_netdevice() calls
ndo_uninit under RTNL, before the device is queued to netdev_run_todo(),
so an entry that sl_sync() can still see while holding RTNL belongs to a
device that cannot be freed until RTNL is dropped. sl_free_netdev()
stays only for the slip_open() error path, where register_netdevice()
may have failed before ndo_init and ndo_uninit is then not called
either. Both running for the same device is harmless: the

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: tun: bound receive headroom
tun_get_user() uses tun->align both as skb headroom and when choosing how
much packet data to keep linear. OVS can propagate an oversized headroom
request from another port to TUN or TAP.
When align is larger than the usable space in a one-page skb head,
SKB_MAX_HEAD(align) underflows and the result becomes negative when stored
in good_linear. That value later wraps when assigned to the size_t linear
variable, and tun_alloc_skb() can place skb->data outside the allocated
head.
Bound the headroom stored by TUN to the one-page skb-head budget and the
largest non-sentinel 16-bit skb header offset. Leave one linear byte for
raw TUN and a complete Ethernet header for TAP, including NET_IP_ALIGN.
Also pull the raw-TUN protocol byte and the TAP Ethernet header before
accessing them, so these checks remain safe for nonlinear skbs supplied by
other allocation paths. |

net: openvswitch: fix flow mask use-after-free on flow deletion
The commit in the Fixes tag below made so flow->mask free is scheduled
via RCU right after it is removed from the flow table. The pointer
stays in the flow structure and it can be accessible while in the same
RCU critical section. This is done to avoid requiring ovs_mutex for
the ovs_flow_free().
However, while removing the flow during processing of CMD_DEL, we do
not take RCU read lock before the removal, and ovs_flow_cmd_fill_info()
uses the flow->mask pointer afterwards. The RCU read lock is taken,
but it's already late at that point. The comment on that line
acknowledges that the lock is cosmetic and doesn't serve a real purpose.
This leads to use-after-free if the RCU grace period passes between
removal and the filling. It is a short race window, but it is there
and can lead to a real crash in case memory allocation for the info
takes a bit longer:

ovs_flow_tbl_remove() must be called after the ovs_flow_cmd_fill_info()
to avoid this race. This also helps with cleaning up the forced cast
and the cosmetic RCU read lock. Before the commit in the Fixes tag the
order did not matter as long as the flow object itself was not freed.
A wider RCU critical section could be another option, but we have a
GFP_KERNEL allocation in the way.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: thunderbolt: Mark the connection down when bringing it up fails
Every failure path in tbnet_connected_work() undoes its own work and
returns without clearing login_sent, so the connection still looks
established. The next tbnet_tear_down() therefore takes its main branch
and repeats a teardown that already happened: it stops rings that are
already stopped, which is a dev_WARN() and fatal under panic_on_warn,
and it releases net->remote_transmit_path even on the HopID mismatch
path, where this connection never owned that id, silently freeing one
that someone else is still using.
Clear login_sent on those paths. That is enough for tbnet_tear_down() to
leave the unwound state alone, and login_received has to stay set: it
records that the peer has logged in and carries the transmit path it gave
us, which nothing on this side can make the peer send again. Two things
change beyond keeping the teardown out of the way: the logout request in
that block is no longer sent, and the peer's next login request now
re-queues our login work rather than connected_work, giving the
connection a fresh login instead of a retry on stale state. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NTB: ntb_transport: Reject oversized TX buffers
ntb_process_tx() handles an oversized buffer by calling tx_handler()
with a NULL data pointer and returning success. ntb_netdev therefore
neither frees the skb in its completion callback nor takes its enqueue
error path, leaking it.
Reject oversized buffers in ntb_transport_tx_enqueue() before acquiring
a queue entry and return -EMSGSIZE. The caller retains ownership of the
buffer, and the preceding netdev patch frees the skb when enqueue
returns this permanent error. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: fix use-after-free in smc_rx_pipe_buf_release()
smc_rx_splice() hands RMB pages to a pipe and takes a socket reference
per entry so the smc_sock stays alive until the reader finishes. The
connection does not: a concurrent close runs smc_conn_free(), which
releases the receive buffer back to the link group pool.
smc_rx_pipe_buf_release() tests sk_state before taking the socket lock.
The state can change between the test and the lock, and
smc_rx_update_cons() then dereferences conn->rmb_desc and walks
conn->lgr, which smc_conn_free() has already released. On the
is_reg_err path smcr_buf_unuse() frees the descriptor outright, so
this is a use-after-free.
Take the socket lock first and test conn->freed instead.
smc_conn_free() sets that flag before releasing anything, and every
caller holds the socket lock. The two paths exclude each other: either
the pipe release runs first with everything valid, or it sees the flag
and skips the update. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: stop killed, freed and out_of_sync sharing a byte
The three connection state flags are single-bit bitfields, so they occupy
one byte of struct smc_connection and every store to one is a
read-modify-write of the other two:
u8 killed : 1;
u8 freed : 1;
u8 out_of_sync : 1;
They are not written under a common lock. smc_cdc_msg_validate() sets
out_of_sync from the receive tasklet, while smc_conn_kill() sets killed
from process context under lock_sock(), and the receive path does not defer
to the backlog when the socket is owned -- smc_cdc_msg_recv() takes only
bh_lock_sock().
Give each flag its own byte so a store no longer touches its neighbours.
All readers test them as booleans and are unchanged. struct smc_connection
grows by two bytes. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: cap advertised IP tunnel headroom
IP tunnel devices derive their advertised needed_headroom from lower
output devices. A stack of user-created devices can make the derived
value larger than the 16-bit skb header offsets can represent. Once IP
output reserves it, skb head expansion can wrap those offsets.
The runtime transmit path already caps a growing needed_headroom at 512.
Apply the same cap when tunnel configuration publishes needed_headroom
derived from a lower output device.
Capping the advertised value is safe: IP tunnel transmit still expands
the skb when a packet needs more headroom. A nonsensical stacked
configuration can therefore incur an extra reallocation, but it cannot
publish an unbounded reservation to upper layers. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: skbuff: don't touch shared zerocopy state in skb_tx_error()
skb_tx_error() completes the zerocopy uarg and clears
SKBFL_ALL_ZEROCOPY, and skb_zcopy_downgrade_managed() clears
SKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS. Both live in skb_shinfo(), which every clone
shares, while the caller only owns the reference it is about to drop.
Through a clone it tells the producer its pages are free and drops
SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG for an skb that is still in flight.
Open vSwitch reaches this with a non-last OVS_ACTION_ATTR_RECIRC:
clone_execute() sends a skb_clone() into ovs_dp_process_packet() while
do_execute_actions() keeps forwarding the original, and skb_clone()
does not privatise the frags here -- skb_orphan_frags() returns early
on SKBFL_DONT_ORPHAN. A flow miss on the clone then strips the marker
from the packet still being forwarded, and a later local ESP delivery
decrypts in place over frags it does not own privately.
Skip it for a cloned skb. Nothing is lost: skb_release_data() clears
the zerocopy state once the last reference to the shared data goes. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: bcd2000: clear the URB pointers on disconnect
bcd2000_free_usb_related_resources() frees both URBs and leaves the
pointers behind:
usb_kill_urb(bcd2k->midi_out_urb);
usb_kill_urb(bcd2k->midi_in_urb);
usb_free_urb(bcd2k->midi_out_urb);
usb_free_urb(bcd2k->midi_in_urb);
The rawmidi device outlives that call. A substream that is still open
when the device is unplugged reaches bcd2000_midi_send() from the
trigger path on close. That function writes to the freed URB and then
hands it to the USB core:
bcd2k->midi_out_urb->transfer_buffer_length = BUFSIZE;
...
ret = usb_submit_urb(bcd2k->midi_out_urb, GFP_ATOMIC);
usb_kill_urb() does not stop a later submission either, so a submit that
races the disconnect can requeue the URB after it has been reaped.
midi_in_urb is exposed the same way: bcd2000_input_complete() resubmits
it from the completion handler.

Clear both pointers after freeing and test them on the paths that can
still run. Poison the URBs before freeing them: usb_poison_urb() waits
for a running completion handler and rejects any later submission, so
after it returns the input path is quiesced and only the rawmidi trigger
path can still reach bcd2000_midi_send(). No unpoison is needed; the
URBs are freed on the next line.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: pcxhr: initialize mutexes before requesting threaded IRQ
pcxhr_probe() requests pcxhr_threaded_irq() before initializing
mgr->lock, even though the threaded handler takes that mutex.
Initialize the manager locks before request_threaded_irq() so an
early interrupt cannot run against uninitialized mutex state during
probe. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mwifiex: Detach sync cmd buffer on interrupted wait
mwifiex synchronous commands keep the caller-provided data buffer in
cmd_node->data_buf. Several callers pass stack-allocated objects there.
If wait_event_interruptible_timeout() is interrupted, the caller can
return and release that stack object while the firmware command is still
the current command. A late firmware response then reaches the normal
response handler, which can copy data through cmd_node->data_buf into the
stale stack address.
This fixes a stack corruption observed during repeated association and
disassociation cycles. The panic trace showed the command wait being
interrupted immediately before a bad pointer dereference:
cmd_wait_q terminated: -512
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 002c583837384662
Kernel panic - not syncing: stack-protector: Kernel stack is corrupted
...
Tainted: [M]=MACHINE_CHECK
The fault address decodes as little-endian ASCII:
0x002c583837384662 -> "bF878X,\0"
which is a fragment of the VERSION_EXT firmware string exposed as
debugfs "verext":
w8997o-V4, RF878X, FP92, 16.92.21.p153.7
The same runs also showed corrupted control data containing:
0x2400372e333531 -> "153.7\0$"
which is the tail of the same VERSION_EXT string. This points at a late
VERSION_EXT response writing through a stale stack-backed data_buf after
the interrupted wait returned.
After cancelling pending commands on an interrupted or timed-out wait,
detach the caller-owned data buffer from the still-current command. This
preserves the existing command cancellation behaviour while preventing a
late response from writing through a pointer whose lifetime ended with the
waiting caller.
Tested on an i.MX8MP board using an 88W8997. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vsock/virtio: flush works in dependency order
virtio_vsock_remove() stops the virtqueues and then flushes each work
item before freeing the enclosing virtio_vsock. The current order does
not account for dependencies between those items: tx_work may queue
send_pkt_work, and send_pkt_work may queue rx_work.
In particular, send_pkt_work can set restart_rx and release tx_lock.
The remove path can then stop the queues and flush rx_work before
send_pkt_work queues it. Although the later send_pkt_work flush waits
for that producer to finish, nothing waits for the newly queued rx_work,
so kfree(vsock) can race with it.

Input: synaptics-rmi4 - fix F55 transmitter electrode count typo
During F55 sensor detection, the transmitter (TX) electrode count was
incorrectly assigned the value of the receiver (RX) electrode count
due to copy-paste typos.
This incorrect value was then propagated to the driver data and used
by F54 to determine the diagnostics report size. On devices with more
RX than TX electrodes, this inflated the perceived TX count, leading
to incorrect report size calculations and potential out-of-bounds
buffer accesses.
Fix the typos by correctly assigning the TX electrode counts. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: amba-pl011: synchronize DMA teardown
dmaengine_terminate_all() does not wait for a running callback, so the TX
callback can still touch the TX buffer after it is freed. The RX poll
timer reads the RX buffers without the port lock.
Switch to dmaengine_terminate_sync() and delete the RX timer before
freeing the buffers. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: remove CAP_SYS_RAWIO zero-padding in dev_validate_header
dev_validate_header() reads dev->hard_header_len directly when
zero-padding short link layer headers for CAP_SYS_RAWIO holders:
if (capable(CAP_SYS_RAWIO)) {
memset(ll_header + len, 0, dev->hard_header_len - len);
return true;
}
Packet send paths call dev_validate_header() on skbs whose headroom was
allocated from an earlier hard_header_len read. If the device is
reconfigured so that dev->hard_header_len increases before validation,
the memset writes past the reserved buffer, an out-of-bounds write.
This out-of-bounds write is masked in some SOCK_RAW paths today because
the same concurrent increase can first make skb_push() exceed the
reserved headroom and trigger skb_under_panic(). Remove the zero-padding
branch before making those hard_header_len reads consistent, so the
snapshot fixes do not turn a loud panic into a silent overwrite.
This path is only reached for variable length L2 protocols, where
len < hard_header_len but len >= min_header_len. No remaining in-tree
variable length L2 protocol implements header_ops->validate, and the
CAP_SYS_RAWIO bypass that zero-pads and accepts short headers has no
real value beyond allowing testing of intentionally malformed input.
Drop the CAP_SYS_RAWIO branch. The remaining reads of
dev->hard_header_len in dev_validate_header() are comparisons only and
have no memory safety impact. |

KVM: x86/mmu: WARN and clear role.invalid when creating a child shadow page
Explicitly clear role.invalid when deriving a child shadow page's role from
its parent to harden against bugs elsewhere in KVM, as violating KVM's
invariant that invalid pages are NOT on the list of active MMU pages leads
to use-after-free due to __kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page() using list_add()
instead of list_move() when processing an invalid shadow page, i.e. makes a
bad situation far worse.
Yell loudly if the parent is invalid, as it means KVM has missed a validity
check, i.e. KVM is attempting to map memory using an invalid/obsolete root,
but continue on as the child is otherwise still a valid shadow page.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: gro: properly validate BIG TCP aggregation criteria
When GRO attempts to aggregate packets beyond GRO_LEGACY_MAX_SIZE (64KB),
BIG TCP should only be permitted for plain IPv4 TCP and plain IPv6 TCP
(with sufficient MAC header room to insert the temporary HBH jumbo header).
However, commit b1a78b9b9886 ("net: add support for ipv4 big tcp")
loosened the check in skb_gro_receive(), leading to several issues:
1. skb_gro_receive() checked skb_headroom(p) instead of the actual space
before the MAC header (p->mac_header). Because skb_headroom(p) includes
mac_len, crafted frames (e.g. injected via AF_PACKET) can pass the check
with p->mac_header < 8 bytes. When ipv6_gro_complete() inserts the
temporary HBH jumbo header, the memmove() starts before skb->head,
causing an out-of-bounds write and wrapping skb->mac_header.
2. It allowed non-IP protocols such as software VLAN (ETH_P_8021Q /
ETH_P_8021AD) to aggregate beyond 64KB because
p->protocol != ETH_P_IPV6 was true.
3. It checked p->encapsulation instead of NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->encap_mark,
allowing encapsulated flows (e.g. SIT / IPv6-in-IPv4) to aggregate
beyond 64KB.
Fix skb_gro_receive() to strictly enforce:
- NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->proto == IPPROTO_TCP
- Not encapsulated (!NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->encap_mark && !p->encapsulation)
- Protocol must be either ETH_P_IP or ETH_P_IPV6
- If ETH_P_IPV6, p->mac_header must be at least
sizeof(struct hop_jumbo_hdr)
Returning -E2BIG from skb_gro_receive() ensures that packets which cannot
become BIG TCP are cleanly flushed at <= 64KB and delivered intact without
dropping.
This issue does not exist in mainline (7.0+) because the subsystem was
rewritten in commit 81be30c1f5f2 ("net/ipv6: Drop HBH for BIG TCP on RX
side"), making this fix relevant only for older stable branches like
6.18.y. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
of: reserved_mem: prevent OOB when too many dynamic regions are defined
On boot, fdt_scan_reserved_mem() saves each dynamically-placed
/reserved-memory subnode into a local array of size
MAX_RESERVED_REGIONS.
If the device tree defines more than MAX_RESERVED_REGIONS
dynamically-placed regions, fdt_scan_reserved_mem() writes past the
end of the local array.
Add a bounds check that logs an error and skips the excess regions,
restoring the original behavior. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: validate individual TWT params before driver setup
ieee80211_process_rx_twt_action() only partially validates a received
S1G TWT setup frame before queueing it.
An individual agreement can therefore reach ieee80211_s1g_rx_twt_setup()
with twt->length too short for the full struct ieee80211_twt_params.
The individual path passes twt to drv_add_twt_setup(). Both the tracepoint
and the driver callback consume the complete parameters block, not merely
req_type. Do not pass a short individual agreement to the driver.
Broadcast agreements remain unchanged because they are rejected locally
after accessing only req_type.
[edit commit message to not overclaim lack of validation nor
understate driver impact] |
