| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: fix metadata_dst refcount handling on representor teardown
ice_eswitch_release_repr() uses metadata_dst_free() to release the
representor's metadata_dst. metadata_dst_free() directly frees the
underlying memory without checking the dst_entry refcount.
When ice_eswitch_port_start_xmit() processes a packet, it takes a
reference via dst_hold() and attaches the metadata_dst to the skb.
If the representor is torn down while packets are still queued on
the lower device (e.g. in a qdisc), the metadata_dst is freed while
references are still held.
Use dst_release() instead, which correctly decrements the refcount
and only frees the object when all references are dropped. The dst
subsystem already handles metadata_dst cleanup in dst_destroy() when
DST_METADATA is set.
Other drivers sharing this pattern (nfp, airoha, bnxt) already use
dst_release() for their metadata_dst lifecycle. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
memstick: core: wait for request completion before freeing card
In memstick_alloc_card() and memstick_set_rw_addr(),
wait_for_completion_timeout() is used to wait for device identification
and address configuration requests to complete.
The memstick subsystem does not provide an abort or cancellation
callback in struct memstick_host for in-flight requests. If
wait_for_completion_timeout() expires (for instance, when a USB transfer
or command retry is delayed), memstick_alloc_card() returns an error and
frees the memstick_dev structure via kfree(card).
However, the host controller driver (such as rtsx_usb_ms) is still
running the request asynchronously in worker context. When the transfer
eventually finishes, the driver writes into host->req->data, which
points to memory inside the already freed card structure. This leads to
a KASAN slab-use-after-free write:

unconditionally.
Replace wait_for_completion_timeout() with wait_for_completion() in
memstick_set_rw_addr() and memstick_alloc_card() so that the card
structure is never freed while an asynchronous request is in flight. |

dm: fix reading free memory in do_resume
When do_resume calls dm_table_get_mode(new_map), the call is done without
holding any locks (it only holds a reference to the md). It may be
possible that another concurrent ioctl on the same device will swap table
after dm_swap_table and before dm_table_get_mode. In this case,
dm_table_get_mode(new_map) reads freed memory.
This race condition was triggered by syzbot.
This commit fixes the race by reading mode of the new table before
dm_swap_table. Note that new_map is also passed to dm_ima_need_measure,
but this function doesn't attempt to dereference it, so this call should
be safe.
Note that this is not a security bug because only root can trigger it and
the commonly used tools such as lvm or cryptsetup do not call the ioctls
concurrently, so that they can't trigger it acceidentally. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: mtk-sd: Cancel request timeout work on remove
The driver queues req_timeout while a request is active.
msdc_request_done() uses cancel_delayed_work(), which does not wait for
a timeout callback that has already started.
The timeout callback calls mmc_request_done(), which wakes the request
waiter, and then continues to use host->dev_comp and check the SDIO IRQ.
During unbind, msdc_drv_remove() can return and the managed mmc_host can
be freed before the callback finishes.
KASAN reported use-after-free accesses in msdc_request_done() and
msdc_recheck_sdio_irq() in each of three unbind tests. The same tests
completed without a kernel diagnostic after this change.
Call cancel_delayed_work_sync() after mmc_remove_host() has stopped new
requests and before the driver releases the host resources. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
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.
KASAN reported the following with test-only timing instrumentation:

net: team: stop reusing skb after queue override
A nonzero dev_queue_xmit() result does not return ownership of the skb.
When an override port's qdisc drops it, the queue override helper used to
try another port or the mode transmit op with the freed skb.
Return the handoff decision separately from transmit success. Select only
the first override port under RCU and stop after handing it the skb,
regardless of the lower transmit result. Keep the existing success and

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
namespace: check a submount for references right before unmounting it
shrink_submounts() and mark_mounts_for_expiry() first collect all the
mounts they are allowed to unmount and then unmount them.
Whether a mount is busy is decided by propagate_mount_busy() on the
tree. But unmounting the first mount changes the tree that the second
one propagates into. propagate_umount()
moves a surviving overmount off a copy it unmounts and mounts it where
the copy was mounted. If that's where the propagated copy of the second
victim is looked up the overmount becomes a candidate of the second
umount_tree(). It's childless and so trim_one() commits it without
looking at its reference count.
So a synchronous umount pulls out a busy mount that is in use somewhere
else and marks it MNT_SYNC_UMOUNT while it has users:
umount2(/tmp/plshrink/p1, 0) = 0 errno 0
cwd is (unreachable)
The same two umounts requested one after the other fail with EBUSY.
This needs a mount with MNT_SHRINKABLE, i.e., automounted submounts of
NFS, AFS and CIFS or the tracefs mount below debugfs. Bind mounts
inherit the flag.
Check each mount right before it is unmounted under the same hold of
namespace_sem and mount_lock as the umount itself. Make sure that the
algorithm stays linear. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
namespace: check the mounts before reading their parents in pivot_root()
path_pivot_root() reads the parents of new_root and of the caller's root
and checks whether they are shared before it checks that either mount is
in the caller's mount namespace. Only namespace_sem is held. That's fine
for a mount that is in the caller's mount namespace.
But new_root can be a file descriptor to a mount that has been unmounted
and that only the file descriptor keeps alive. If that mount stayed
attached to its parent when it was unmounted nothing pins the parent for
it. The final mntput() of the parent unhooks the children under
mount_lock alone and frees the parent afterwards:
pivot_root() close(fd), last ref on the parent

The same goes for the caller's root via chroot(). Both outcomes of the
check end in EINVAL so nothing but the read itself goes wrong. It's the
same thing commit bb4609405752 ("statmount: read the parent of an
unmounted mount under mount_lock") fixed for statmount().
Check that both mounts are in the caller's namespace before their
parents are read. Every path returns EINVAL either way. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: exar: initialize the ID before registering its cleanup
devm_add_action_or_reset() invokes the cleanup action immediately when
registering the action fails. gpio_exar_probe() currently stores the
allocated ID in exar_gpio only after registering the action, so that
failure makes exar_devm_ida_free() release ID 0. If the allocated ID is
nonzero, this leaks that ID and can free ID 0 belonging to another device.
Store the ID before registering the cleanup action so both the immediate
failure path and normal device teardown release the correct allocation. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
amt: send the relay's General Query directly from the receive path
An skb queued in a qdisc can outlive the tunnel it references
through a raw pointer in skb->cb. For example, with igmp_qrv set
to 1 on the relay a tunnel lives for 135s, so a netem delay of
180s on the amt device outlives it; when the tunnel expires and is
freed, the subsequent dequeue triggers a use-after-free in
amt_dev_xmit().
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in amt_dev_xmit+0x2763/0x2e20

net_tx_action+0x35c/0xa60
amt_send_igmp_gq() and amt_send_mld_gq() are only called from
amt_request_handler(), inside the rcu_read_lock_bh() section of
amt_rcv(). amt_request_handler() already has the tunnel the query is
for: it found or created it inside that section. Queuing the query with
dev_queue_xmit() only leads back into amt_dev_xmit(), which strips the
Ethernet header and calls amt_send_membership_query() for that tunnel.
Make that call directly from the two senders instead, the same way
amt_send_advertisement() transmits from the receive path. The query
never waits in a qdisc, the tunnel is only dereferenced inside the
RCU section that found or created it, and nothing is stored in
skb->cb, so no lookup or refcount is needed. Remove the query branch
of amt_dev_xmit(), amt_skb_cb() and struct amt_skb_cb, which have no
users left.
Behaviour changes:
- The relay's own General Queries no longer pass through the amt
device's egress path: its qdisc, tc egress (clsact/tcx), the
netfilter egress hook and packet taps. They are still visible as
UDP on the underlay.
- A query that is sent successfully is no longer counted as
tx_dropped. The old query branch left through the unlock label,
which counted every sent query as dropped.
- A query that reaches amt_dev_xmit() on a relay from elsewhere,
such as a userspace querier, is now dropped at the IGMP/MLD type
switch. Before, it trusted whatever skb->cb held, and a NULL
tunnel hit the WARN_ON(1). |

usb: hub: use shorter 120ms post resume hold for SS root hubs
Holding a USB3 hub PM runtime reference for 200ms at hub resume triggers
an AMD platform issue. Users running Android adb report crashes after
adb has been polling and waking up the USB subsystem once a second for
some time. Vendors are working on a solution. Disabling USB runtime PM
is one way to prevent this issue, but it is also proven that reducing the
hold time to 120ms in resume also mitigates it. See Link for more
details.
Reducing the hold time to 120ms for the USB3 roothub is in itself a valid
change and optimization, as the current 200ms is excessive: a root hub
has no upstream suspended hub whose wake propagation needs to be
accounted for, but still need some time for USB3 link training to
complete.
Keep the 200ms hold for external hubs that commit 8f5b7e2bec1c
("usb: hub: fix detection of high tier USB3 devices behind suspended
hubs") is intended for. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
audit: fix exe mark UAF in kill_rules()
kill_rules() removes mixed AUDIT_DIR and AUDIT_EXE rules when an audit
tree is pruned. It drops entry->rule.exe before removing the rule from
the RCU-visible filter lists.
After a rule has been installed with AUDIT_ADD_RULE, which requires
CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL, removing the watched directory can race with another
task that is still evaluating the rule. In that case, fsnotify can free
the executable mark before the reader reaches audit_mark_compare(),
causing a use-after-free.
KASAN reports:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in audit_mark_compare+0x8d/0xa0
Unlink the published rules from the RCU-visible lists and retain them
on tree->rules for cleanup. If any rule has an executable mark, wait for
a single RCU grace period before removing the marks and scheduling the
entries for freeing. Otherwise, call_rcu() already provides the required
deferred freeing without a synchronous wait. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: check RCV_SHUTDOWN after the sendmsg connect wait
sctp_wait_for_connect() drops the socket lock while it sleeps. An
out-of-the-blue ABORT can then be processed from the socket backlog and
unlink the association. If a concurrent shutdown(fd, SHUT_RD) sets
RCV_SHUTDOWN, the waiter breaks with err == 0 before checking
asoc->base.dead. Its final sctp_association_put() can then free the
association, leaving sctp_sendmsg_to_asoc() to continue with a dangling
pointer.
Check RCV_SHUTDOWN along with the wait error in sctp_sendmsg_to_asoc()
before using the association again. The check only accesses the socket,
so it needs no additional association reference. Return the existing
-ESRCH so that sctp_sendmsg() skips freeing a new association that may
already have been destroyed.
Keep sctp_wait_for_connect() unchanged to preserve its behavior for the
connect() caller. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: caiaq: unregister the input device when probe fails
setup_card() registers the input device, whose name and phys point into
struct snd_usb_caiaqdev, and then goes on to snd_card_register() and
snd_usb_caiaq_control_init(). If either fails, snd_probe() calls
snd_card_free(), which frees the device state but leaves the input
device registered: card_free() only clears the pointer, and the input
device is unregistered from snd_disconnect() alone. Reading its "uevent"
attribute afterwards dereferences freed memory:

netfilter: bpf: reject invalid NAT manipulation types
As bpf_ct_set_nat_info() is not validating the NAT manipulation type a
wrong value can be passed directly to nf_nat_setup_info(). This triggers
the WARN_ON() at nf_nat_setup_info() and if panic_on_warn isn't set,
then IPS_SRC_NAT_DONE is set without adding nat_bysource and conntrack
cleanup tries to unlink an uninitialized hlist node.
Fix this by checking that NAT manipulation type is correct before
calling nf_nat_setup_info(). In addition, if the WARN_ON is hit, return
NF_DROP instead of continuing with the processing to avoid similar
situations in the future. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
binder: fix is_failure flag for superseded transaction cleanup
When a TF_UPDATE_TXN transaction supersedes a pending async transaction,
binder_release_entire_buffer() is called with is_failure=false. Since the
superseded transaction was never delivered, binder_apply_fd_fixups() was
never called and no fds were installed in the target process.
With is_failure=false, the BINDER_TYPE_FDA cleanup handler interprets
stale buffer contents as installed fd numbers and passes them to
binder_deferred_fd_close(), closing unrelated file descriptors.
Pass is_failure=true since the transaction was never delivered to the
target, matching the semantics of all other undelivered-transaction
cleanup paths. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nitro_enclaves: fix use-after-free on SLOT_ALLOC failure
When ne_create_vm_ioctl() fails the SLOT_ALLOC request after
anon_inode_getfile() has succeeded, the error path calls
fput(enclave_file) and then frees ne_enclave.
In normal userspace context, fput() defers the final __fput() via
task_work. ne_enclave_release() therefore runs after ne_enclave has
already been freed and dereferences ne_enclave->slot_uid, causing a
use-after-free: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in ne_enclave_release.
The enclave has no slot allocated and is not yet linked into the
enclaves list on this error path, so ne_enclave_release() is expected
to return early when slot_uid is zero. However, reading slot_uid
already accesses the freed object.
Clear enclave_file->private_data before fput() on the error path.
ne_enclave_release() then returns immediately when private_data is
NULL, leaving the ioctl error path as the sole owner of ne_enclave.
This is safe because the file has not been fd_install()'d yet.
Tested on an AWS EC2 m5.2xlarge with CONFIG_KASAN=y. Without the
patch, the reproducer triggers a KASAN slab-use-after-free on every
SLOT_ALLOC failure. With the patch, no KASAN report is produced and
the SLOT_ALLOC error is still returned. Normal enclave creation and
teardown are unaffected. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: cdc-acm: skip URB restart in port_shutdown if disconnected
acm_port_shutdown() is called from the tty-port machinery whenever the
last user closes the port. acm_disconnect() sets acm->disconnected and
calls tty_port_tty_vhangup(), which eventually triggers port_shutdown().
At that point acm_disconnect() has already called acm_poison_urbs() and
is about to free the control and read URBs.
However, acm_port_shutdown() unconditionally calls acm_unpoison_urbs()
and, when the ALWAYS_POLL_CTRL quirk is set, immediately re-submits the
ctrlurb and all read URBs. If the concurrent acm_disconnect() then
frees those URBs and their DMA buffers while they are in-flight, the
result is a use-after-free in acm_ctrl_irq() or acm_read_bulk_callback()
accessing the freed DMA memory.
Fix by checking acm->disconnected after draining the delayed anchor and
returning early: if we are in a disconnect path the URBs must remain
poisoned and must not be resubmitted.
The early return is placed after the delayed-anchor drain loop because
that loop only cancels write-side accounting (wb->use = false and
autopm counter) and does not touch the hardware path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: serial: fix port tear down use-after-free
Some drivers for multiport devices access port driver data from
completion handlers of shared URBs submitted at attach() or first open()
and stopped at disconnect() or last close(), respectively.
A simple NULL check before accessing the driver data makes sure that a
port state container has at least been allocated, but a completion
handler can still race with port tear down.
Reorder the disconnect handling so that ports are not deregistered (and
their driver data freed) until after all ports have been hung up and the
driver disconnect() callback has run so that all I/O has been stopped. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: aspeed-vhub: cancel wake work on device removal
wake_work is armed from the gadget .wakeup callback to resume suspended
downstream ports, and it is never cancelled in ast_vhub_remove(), so a
work item queued before or during removal can run after devm has freed
vhub and its ports, a use-after-free.
Cancelling the work alone is not sufficient: usb_gadget_wakeup() takes
no lock and the unbind path never clears wakeup_en, so a remote-wakeup
request in flight on another CPU can re-arm the work after the cancel
and before vhub is freed.
ast_vhub_del_dev() already clears d->registered under vhub->lock before
unregistering the gadget. Refuse the wakeup in ast_vhub_udc_wakeup()
once d->registered is clear: the check and the schedule_work() are then
atomic against the unbind, so a wakeup that passed before the flag was
cleared is drained by the cancel_work_sync() after the del_dev loop,
and one that arrives later returns without arming. Also move INIT_WORK()
to the top of ast_vhub_probe(), since the probe error path reuses
ast_vhub_remove() and would otherwise cancel a never-initialized work
item.
This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool. |
