Bluetooth: SCO: serialise sco_conn lifetime against sco_recv_scodata()
sco_recv_scodata() upgrades the weak hcon->sco_data back-pointer to a
strong reference under hdev->lock:
hci_dev_lock(hdev);
hcon = hci_conn_hash_lookup_handle(hdev, handle);
...
conn = sco_conn_hold_unless_zero(hcon->sco_data);
hci_dev_unlock(hdev);
but the pointer is cleared from the other side without that lock. When
the last sco_conn reference is dropped, sco_conn_free() ran
conn->hcon->sco_data = NULL;
with no hdev->lock held, so the RX path could read hcon->sco_data and
call kref_get_unless_zero() on an sco_conn that was concurrently freed:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in sco_conn_hold_unless_zero+0xbe/0x160

Call Trace:
sco_conn_hold_unless_zero+0xbe/0x160
sco_recv_scodata+0x13f/0x490
hci_rx_work+0x3af/0x730
kref_get_unless_zero() only guards against a zero refcount, not against
the backing memory already being freed.
Give hcon->sco_data an actual reference on the sco_conn it points to, so
the object cannot be freed while the pointer is still installed, and only
clear and drop it from sco_conn_del(), which runs under hdev->lock (its
callers, sco_connect_cfm() and sco_disconn_cfm(), hold it). The reader in
sco_recv_scodata() also takes hdev->lock, so the store and the read are
now serialised: the RX path either observes NULL or a reference that is
guaranteed to stay valid until it drops its own.
sco_conn_add() no longer hands its kref_init() reference to the caller as
the connection's only reference; that initial reference is the one owned
by hcon->sco_data, and callers get their own via sco_conn_hold().
Because the sco_conn can now outlive the socket (the association keeps it
alive until the link goes down), the hci_conn can no longer be dropped
from sco_conn_free() without regressing socket close: closing a connected
SCO socket must still tear the link down. Move hci_conn ownership to the
socket instead: __sco_chan_add() takes an hci_conn reference and it is
released from sco_chan_del() and sco_sock_destruct(), exactly once. The
sco_conn no longer owns an hci_conn reference, so sco_conn_add() stops
consuming one and sco_connect() drops the hci_connect_sco() reference on
every path; sco_connect_cfm() no longer needs its hci_conn_hold() dance. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: ISO: Serialize concurrent connect calls
iso_sock_connect() checks the socket state before taking the socket lock
and drops the lock again before setting up a connection. Two callers can
both pass the admission check while the socket is open or bound.
Caller A can copy its destination for route selection, then caller B can
replace the socket destination before A binds or connects the CIS. A
then uses B's destination with the route selected for its own request.
B can also proceed after A attaches a connection and sets BT_CONNECT.
For deferred BIS setup, B can bind a second BIS and overwrite
iso_pi(sk)->conn, leaving the first connection's reference and conn->sk
back-pointer stranded. Concurrent CIS connects can likewise replace the
socket's connection. Later teardown only detaches the current connection,
so a callback on the old connection can race with socket release and
access a freed socket.

Check admission under the socket lock and mark the connect operation in
progress before publishing its destination. Keep that flag set across
route lookup and connection setup, rejecting another connect with
-EBADFD before it can change the destination or attach a connection.
Clear the flag after either helper returns, including on failure, so a
failed setup can be retried.
A separate flag is needed because the socket lock must be released before
acquiring the HCI device lock, while BT_CONNECT requires an attached
connection. Keep the existing state transitions and the deferred CIS
completion through iso_sock_recvmsg().
Reject an existing socket attachment in __iso_chan_add() before taking
a new reference or publishing either pointer, so every caller preserves
the connection association. Keep the same-socket, same-connection success
case for deferred CIS setup. Reject an attached socket before BIS setup
so a reusable BIS is not claimed before the attachment is rejected.
In CIS setup, reject a different HCI connection before iso_conn_add()
and drop the per-attempt HCI hold directly. An unowned iso_conn may still
carry another reference after detachment, so its destruction cannot be
relied on to release that hold.
iso_listen_bis() creates a fresh PA HCI/ISO pair under the device lock,
so the temporary iso_conn_put() frees the ISO candidate and drops its
HCI hold on rejection. iso_conn_ready() uses a freshly allocated,
unpublished child with no connection, making the socket-side rejection
unreachable. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
EDAC/altera: Fix use-after-free in error paths
In both altr_edac_a10_device_add() and altr_portb_setup(), the error path
freed the dci structure before releasing the devres group. Since the managed
single and double bit IRQ handlers use altdev(dci->pvt_info) as their data, an
IRQ firing between freeing dci and unregistering the IRQs could dereference
the freed memory.
Release the devres group first so the managed IRQs are unregistered
before the dci structure is freed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: steam: Rearrange teardown sequence
This fixes a narrow window during the teardown sequence where callbacks
could still be scheduled during cleanup that would then have a dangling
pointer to the now-freed steam struct.
This also puts work canceling for rumble and mode switch in
steam_unregister, as that shouldn't persist while the client hdev is open. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
namespace: reset the old parent's ->overmount in mnt_change_mountpoint()
__umount_mnt() resets ->overmount of the parent when it unmounts the
mount that overmounts it. mnt_change_mountpoint() doesn't. It moves the
mount to its new parent and leaves the old one pointing at it.
For a mount that is moved beneath in attach_recursive_mnt() that doesn't
matter. The new mount has already reset ->overmount of the old parent by
the time the old top mount is moved onto it.
It matters for reparent() though. propagate_umount() moves a surviving
overmount onto the first ancestor that isn't going to be unmounted. The
mount it was taken from is unmounted immediately afterwards. If a file
descriptor keeps that unmounted mount alive ->overmount points at the
moved mount. That's a dangling pointer and UAF as the moved mount is
unmounted and freed.
do_lock_mount() follows ->overmount from the target path under
mount_lock. With a file descriptor on such a mount as the target of a
mount beneath topmost_overmount() walks into the freed mount and
do_lock_mount() takes references on whatever it finds there.
So reset ->overmount of the old parent in mnt_change_mountpoint() the
same way __umount_mnt() does. A mount's ->overmount is then always a
mount that is attached to it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe: Fix stale pinned_link entry when fb-pin performs the final unpin
xe_bo_pin_external() and xe_bo_unpin_external() maintain the bo's
pinned_link list membership in xe->pinned.late.external, based on
whether the current call is the outermost pin or the final unpin.
However, the same external bo's pin_count can also be raised and
lowered directly by __xe_pin_fb_vma()/__xe_unpin_fb_vma(), which pin
the bo as a display scanout buffer without going through
xe_bo_pin_external()/xe_bo_unpin_external() at all, and have no
notion of, or ownership over, pinned_link.
If a bo is pinned both externally (e.g. dma-buf export) and as an fb,
and the external unpin happens first, xe_bo_unpin_external() correctly
observes pin_count > 1 and leaves the bo on pinned_link. When the fb
unpin later performs the true last unpin (pin_count 1 -> 0), it never
touches pinned_link, leaving the bo linked on xe->pinned.late.external
indefinitely. Once the bo is subsequently freed, this stale list entry
points into freed memory, corrupting the list and risking a
use-after-free the next time the list is walked or spliced.
The backup object pin/unpin sites in xe_bo_notifier_prepare_pinned()/
xe_bo_notifier_unprepare_pinned() have the same bypass characteristic,
though they never add their bo to a pinned list, so are not affected
by this particular list-corruption issue.
Move the pinned_link removal into xe_bo_account_unpin(), which already
runs on every unpin path (kernel, external, framebuffer, backup
object) right before the true 1 -> 0 pin_count transition. Since
list_del_init() only operates on the node itself, this removal is
list-agnostic and safe to perform regardless of which list (external
or kernel_bo_present) the bo happens to be linked on, or which code
path is performing the final unpin. Drop the now-redundant explicit
list_del_init() calls in xe_bo_unpin_external() and xe_bo_unpin().

- New patch

- Rebased on changes to previous patch.

tipc: hold a reference to nodes found by link name
tipc_node_find_by_name() returns a node after dropping its RCU read lock
without taking a reference. The LINK_SET, LINK_GET and LINK_RESET_STATS
handlers then lock and access the node, racing with timer-driven cleanup of
a down peer. Generic netlink serialization does not exclude the node
timer.
The following interleaving can leave a handler using a freed node:
CPU 0: find the node under RCU and release the node read lock
CPU 1: tipc_node_timeout() clears the links and unlinks the down node
CPU 1: drop the list and timer references, queuing tipc_node_free()
CPU 0: leave the RCU read-side critical section
CPU 1: complete the grace period and free the node
CPU 0: acquire the node lock through the stale pointer
LINK_SET also uses the node's media address after releasing the node lock,
when passing queued packets to tipc_bearer_xmit().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: fs/xattr: don't assume the inode is locked in path_unlink/path_rmdir
bpf_lsm_has_d_inode_locked() makes the verifier rewrite
bpf_[set|remove]_dentry_xattr() to the _locked variants, which assume
that the caller already holds the inode's i_rwsem. The path_unlink and
path_rmdir hooks are listed, but security_path_unlink() and
security_path_rmdir() run before vfs_unlink()/vfs_rmdir() take the
victim inode's i_rwsem, so a sleepable BPF LSM program attached to
either hook mutates the victim's xattrs without the lock held.
Drop the two path hooks from d_inode_locked_hooks so that the verifier
keeps the locking bpf_[set|remove]_dentry_xattr() variants, which take
the lock themselves. |

tipc: destroy topsrv workqueues before closing connections
tipc_topsrv_stop() closed subscriber connections while the topology
server's send and receive workqueues were still running. Socket
callbacks and subscription events could then queue more work, and
in-flight send/recv work could drop the last connection reference
during the conn_idr walk.
That race produced several teardown failures: refcount_t addition on
0 from conn_get() on a connection whose release was blocked on
idr_lock, a subsequent use-after-free in tipc_conn_close(),
queue_work() on an already destroyed workqueue from the listener
data-ready callback, and an RCU stall in tipc_topsrv_exit_net()
while the walk spun under idr_lock.
Clear srv->listener under idr_lock so it acts as a shutdown flag,
skip queue_work() once it is NULL, destroy the workqueues to flush
in-flight work, and only then close the remaining connections.
Refuse tipc_conn_lookup() after that flag is cleared, and drop
idr_lock when the teardown walk finds no connection, so an
in-flight subscription event cannot pin idr_in_use while the
walk holds the lock.

fsverity: RCU-delay the freeing of struct fsverity_info
__fsverity_get_info() calls rhashtable_lookup_fast(), which just uses
rcu_read_lock() and doesn't directly synchronize with
fsverity_remove_info().
For the same inode this isn't a problem: its fsverity_info is removed
only at inode eviction time or upon failure to enable verity, when the
inode no longer needs its fsverity_info and it will no longer be
accessed via that inode.
However, this is broken and can cause a use-after-free for concurrent
__fsverity_get_info() for *different* inodes. Those rely on following
fsverity_info::rhash_head in the rhashtable under rcu_read_lock() only.
They also use fsverity_info::inode to do the key comparison.
Fix this by RCU-delaying the freeing of 'struct fsverity_info' after
it's been removed from the rhashtable. |

net/smc: protect clcsock lifetime in smc_getname
smc_getname() dereferences smc->clcsock without holding
clcsock_release_lock. Link-group termination can release the CLC socket
through smc_close_active_abort() while the SMC socket is still open,
for example after shutdown(SHUT_WR).
A getsockname() caller can load smc->clcsock, then the termination worker
can clear the pointer and call sock_release() before the caller accesses
clcsock->ops or invokes getname(). This causes a use-after-free; if the
worker clears the pointer before the load, it causes a NULL dereference.
The syscall's file reference keeps the SMC socket alive but does not
prevent asynchronous release of its CLC socket.
