| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: pcm: Serialize PCM mmap with buffer reallocation to fix page UAF
snd_pcm_hw_params() and snd_pcm_hw_free() guard buffer reallocation
with an mmap_count check performed under the PCM stream lock, but the
lock is released long before the buffer is actually freed:
snd_pcm_sync_stop(), constraint refinement and do_free_pages() all
happen in between. snd_pcm_mmap_data(), on the other hand, takes no
lock at all: it validates against the old buffer's state and
dma_bytes, remaps its pages into the VMA, and only then increments
mmap_count.
A concurrent mmap() can therefore slip in between the check and the
free. remap_pfn_range() installs writable PTEs for the old buffer's
pages without taking page references, and the subsequent
do_free_pages() returns those pages to the page allocator while the
VMA still maps them. This leaves a stale, writable mapping of freed
pages: a page-level use-after-free that can be leveraged for local
privilege escalation.
Make snd_pcm_mmap_data() participate in the buffer-access scheme
introduced for hw_params/hw_free: acquire runtime->buffer_accessing
before validating and remapping, and release it afterwards. Buffer
reallocation already fails with -EBUSY while accessors are active,
and the mmap side now fails with -EBUSY while a reallocation is in
progress, so the validate/remap sequence and the check/free sequence
can no longer interleave.
A reproducer that turns this race into a stale writable mapping of
the freed DMA buffer pages is available on request. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: detach failed sprout device from transaction update list
When creating the first metadata chunk for a sprout filesystem,
create_chunk() adds the new device to the transaction dev_update_list
through device->post_commit_list.
If the subsequent system chunk creation fails, btrfs_init_new_device()
aborts the transaction and releases the device while post_commit_list is
still linked. This triggers a warning in btrfs_free_device() and leaves
the transaction list referencing freed memory.
Detach the device while holding chunk_mutex before releasing it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix transaction use-after-free in raid stripe insertion
If allocation of a RAID stripe extent fails,
btrfs_insert_one_raid_extent() aborts and ends the transaction before
returning -ENOMEM.
btrfs_finish_one_ordered(), the production caller through
btrfs_insert_raid_extent(), still owns the transaction handle. It handles
the error by aborting the transaction and then reaches the common exit
path, which ends the transaction again.
The premature end can free the handle and drop its transaction reference.
Transaction cleanup can then free the transaction before the caller's
second abort accesses the handle and transaction, resulting in
use-after-free.
Keep the abort at the failure site, but let the caller's common exit path
end the transaction once, after it has finished using both objects. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing/probes: Fix use-after-free on field name/type of events with multiple probes
The fields of a probe-based dynamic event (kprobe, uprobe, eprobe and
fprobe events) are created in traceprobe_define_arg_fields() by handing
the probe_arg name/type strings to trace_define_field(), which only
stores the pointers without copying. Those strings are owned by the
trace_probe and are freed when that probe is removed.
An event can have several probes attached. The field list is defined
only once, by the first probe that registers the event, but it is kept
alive by any surviving sibling probe. Deleting just that first probe by
symbol -
# primary A: fields are defined from A's args
echo 'p:kprobes/ev vfs_read a1=$arg1' > kprobe_events
# append B: shares A's event call
echo 'p:kprobes/ev vfs_write a1=$arg1' >> kprobe_events
# delete only A (matched by symbol), B survives
echo '-:kprobes/ev vfs_read' >> kprobe_events
frees A's args (trace_probe_cleanup() -> traceprobe_free_probe_arg()),
but trace_probe_unlink() keeps the trace_probe_event because the probe
list is not empty. The event call stays registered via B while its
fields now reference freed memory. Any field lookup then reads it, e.g.
echo 'a1 == 1' > events/kprobes/ev/filter
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in strcmp+0xa7/0xb0
Call Trace:
strcmp
trace_find_event_field
parse_pred
process_preds
create_filter
apply_event_filter
event_filter_write
field->name references parg->name (kstrdup'd, freed with the probe) and,
for array arguments, field->type references parg->fmt (kmalloc'd, freed
with the probe) - the scalar type otherwise points at the static
fmttype rodata, which is safe.
Have traceprobe_define_arg_fields() duplicate the name and type strings
and anchor the copies on the trace_probe_event, which embeds the event
call and outlives every individual probe; trace_probe_event_free()
releases them.
The reproducer above triggers reliably; the field lookup and the delete
both run under event_mutex, so this is a dangling reference after
removal rather than a race.
The issue was found by the autokbug dynamic kernel fuzzer at Tencent
Yunding Lab. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: cttimeout: prevent UAF during module unload
nf_ct_set_timeout() protects the timeout hook dereference and policy lookup
with rcu_read_lock(). cttimeout_exit(), however, unregisters the per-net
operations before it clears the hook.
This allows the following interleaving:
CPU 0 CPU 1
cttimeout_exit() nf_ct_set_timeout()
unregister_pernet_subsys() rcu_read_lock()
kfree(pernet) h = nf_ct_timeout_hook
h->timeout_find_get()
nfct_timeout_pernet()
The hook still points to ctnl_timeout_find_get() when CPU 1 looks up the
already freed per-net timeout list. KASAN reported:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: pin DFS superblock in iterator callback
tcon_super_cb() stores a raw superblock pointer, but __cifs_get_super()
takes its active reference only after iterate_supers_type() has dropped
s_umount and its passive reference. Concurrent DFS automount expiry can
therefore free the superblock before cifs_sb_active() uses it.
A deterministic KASAN test reproduces the race as:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in cifs_sb_active+0x77/0x80
The same test passes with this change applied.
Take the active reference in the callback while iterate_supers_type()
still holds s_umount shared. cifs_put_tcp_super() remains the matching
release. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: qla2xxx: Skip vport under deletion in report ID acquisition
qla24xx_report_id_acquisition() format-1 handling walks ha->vp_list under
vport_slock, takes a vref_count on the matching vport and calls
qla_update_host_map() to register its port id.
A vport teardown via qla24xx_vport_delete() sets VPORT_DELETE, then
qla24xx_disable_vp() removes the vport from the host_map btree and zeroes
vha->d_id (RESET_AL_PA). The vport is only unlinked from vp_list later,
in qla24xx_deallocate_vp_id(), which clears vp_map[idx] (RESET_VP_IDX)
but does not touch host_map. In the window in between, report ID
acquisition can still find the vport on vp_list and call
qla_update_host_map(); with d_id already zeroed it takes the
btree_insert32() path and re-inserts the dying vport into host_map.
Nothing cleans that entry afterwards, so once scsi_host_put() frees the
vha a later host_map lookup dereferences freed memory.
Skip a vport that has VPORT_DELETE set before taking the reference, so it
is neither re-registered nor scheduled for DPC re-registration. This
mirrors the existing guard in qla2x00_alert_all_vps(). |

i3c: master: Fix use-after-free of master->this
sysfs attribute callbacks for the master controller device dereference
master->this. However, master->this is freed in
i3c_master_detach_free_devs() before the master device itself is
released.
As a result, sysfs accesses can dereference a freed master->this
pointer, leading to a use-after-free.
Keep master->this alive until i3c_masterdev_release(), which is called
after the master device and its sysfs state are being torn down. Do not
free master->this as part of the normal device detach path.
On the error path in i3c_master_set_info(), reset master->this and
bus.cur_master to NULL before freeing the allocated device. |

virtio_pmem_host_ack() wakes a request that has already been freed by the
submitter.
This happens when the request token is still reachable via the virtqueue,
but virtio_pmem_flush() returns and frees it.
Fix the token lifetime by refcounting struct virtio_pmem_request.
virtio_pmem_flush() holds a submitter reference, and the virtqueue holds an
extra reference once the request is queued. The completion path drops the
virtqueue reference, and the submitter drops its reference before
returning. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: dwc3: clear forceRM when issuing EndTransfer
The forceRM bit of the DEPCMD register controls the behavior of the
EndTransfer command used to stop an active transfer. Older DWC3
programming guide revisions recommended setting forceRM=1 when
issuing EndTransfer. Newer programming guide revisions recommend
issuing EndTransfer with forceRM cleared.
With forceRM=1 on DWC_usb31 v2.00a and v2.10a controllers, a transfer
aborted through the ep_dequeue path was observed to remain active
after EndTransfer completion. A subsequent StartTransfer issued on the
same endpoint triggered writes associated with the aborted transfer.
This resulted in an SMMU fault because the transfer buffer had already
been unmapped during EndTransfer command-completion cleanup.
Using forceRM=0 eliminates the issue. Although older DWC3 programming
guide revisions recommended setting forceRM=1, no issues are known
from using forceRM=0. Clear forceRM when issuing EndTransfer to provide
consistent EndTransfer behavior and align with newer programming guide
recommendations. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: storage: realtek_cr: fix use-after-free on disconnect
realtek_cr_destructor() calls timer_delete() before the chip containing
the timer is freed. The timer callback may still be running and can
rearm itself, resulting in a use-after-free.
Use timer_shutdown_sync() to wait for the callback and prevent further
rearming. Do this unconditionally because ss_en may be changed after
the timer is armed.
Move timer_setup() into init_realtek_cr() so the timer is initialized
before any failure path can invoke the destructor.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ftrace: Take trace_array reference before accessing its ftrace_ops
The trace instance files set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace was
updated to work with specific trace instances (trace_arrays). The issue is
that when these files are opened, there is a small race window where it
will use the ftrace_ops from the inode->private pointer to get a reference
to the trace_array and then take its reference. The problem is that the
ftrace_ops itself could be freed. If the rmdir on the instance happens at
the same time the set_ftrace_filter file is opened, the rmdir could have
also freed the ftrace_ops and referencing it will cause a use-after-free
bug and crash the kernel.
Instead, pass in the trace_array as the file private data (NULL for the
top level instance), and then pass both the trace_array and the ftrace_ops
to the ftrace_regex_open() function. If the trace_array is NULL, then it
just uses the ftrace_ops without the need to take its reference (like
normal). If the ftrace_ops is NULL, that is only the case for the top
level instance and the global_ops can be used.
This allows the trace_array to have its reference incremented before
touching the ftrace_ops that could also be freed when the instance is. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvme: add missing SRCU grace period in error path
nvme_alloc_ns() error path at out_unlink_ns removes ns from the
namespace head siblings list with list_del_rcu(&ns->siblings) but
does not wait for SRCU readers before freeing the namespace struct.
Multipath code iterates the head->list under srcu_read_lock() in
nvme_find_path() and nvme_mpath_revalidate_paths(), so a concurrent
reader can still hold a reference to ns when kfree(ns) runs.
The normal removal path in nvme_ns_remove() correctly calls
synchronize_srcu(&ns->head->srcu) after list_del_rcu() to wait for
in-progress readers. Add the same grace period in the error path. |

s390/vfio-ap: Fix missing lock required to access list of ap_matrix_mdev objects
In order to traverse or add/remove ap_matrix_mdev objects in the
matrix_dev->mdev_list, the matrix_dev->guests_lock mutex must be held.
There are two functions that access the list without holding the mutex:
vfio_ap_mdev_probe function
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The vfio_ap_mdev_probe function uses the matrix_dev->mdevs_lock
mutex to guard the add of a newly created ap_matrix_mdev object to the
matrix_dev->mdev_list. This mutex does not protect list access; its purpose
is to guard against concurrent access to fields contained in an
ap_matrix_mdev object. This could lead to kernel memory corruption or
use-after-free if another mdev is created or removed concurrently.
The adding of an ap_matrix_mdev object to matrix_dev->mdev_list
is now guarded by the matrix_dev->guests_lock which is the correct
way to protect against concurrent mdev_list access.
Also removed the following two lines of code because the matrix_mdev is
allocated via vfio_alloc_device macro which uses kzalloc, so req_trigger
and cfg_chg_trigger are already zero-initialised when the struct is
allocated before the call to vfio_register_emulated_iommu_dev. This
prevents a window whereby these triggers are set to NULL after
the device is exposed to userspace.
matrix_mdev->req_trigger = NULL;
matrix_mdev->cfg_chg_trigger = NULL;
vfio_ap_mdev_for_queue function
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The status_show function that supports display of the status attribute of
the devices in /sys/bus/ap/devices calls the vfio_ap_mdev_for_queue
function which iterates the matrix_dev->mdev_list to find the object
representing the queue device whose status is to be displayed. In order to
traverse this list, the matrix_dev->guests_lock mutex must be held.
To fix this, the guests_lock mutex is taken prior to taking the
matrix_dev->mdevs_lock mutex in the status_show function. It is taken
there rather than the vfio_ap_mdev_for_queue function - where it is
needed - because it must be taken prior to the mdevs_lock mutex in order to
adhere to the proper locking order and prevent a lockdep splat; also
because the mdevs_lock is needed there to access fields within
the matrix_mdev object in that function.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
power: supply: ab8500_fg: fix use-after-free on remove
ab8500_fg_remove() destroys the driver workqueue while the threaded
interrupt handlers are still armed; they are devm-managed and freed
only after ->remove() returns, so a handler that fires in that
window queues work on the freed workqueue.
Tear the workqueue down through devm instead, registering its cleanup
after the power supply and before the interrupt requests. devm then
frees the interrupts first, so the handlers can no longer queue work,
before disabling the delayed and plain work items and destroying the
workqueue. Disabling the items, rather than cancelling them, keeps
them disabled so no producer (including the power-supply
external_power_changed callback) can requeue them.
Found by an in-house static analysis tool. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix use-after-free in oplock break notification
smb2_oplock_break_noti() reads opinfo->conn without any lock and
dereferences it after two allocations which may sleep. When the
durable handle owning the oplock is disconnected, session_fd_check()
clears opinfo->conn and drops its conn reference under ci->m_lock, and
the last ksmbd_conn_put() frees the connection. A break triggered by
another connection that races with the teardown can then resurrect the
freed connection: ksmbd_conn_get() is a plain atomic_inc, and the
queued break work later dereferences the stale conn via
ksmbd_conn_write(), a use-after-free reachable by any authenticated
client holding a durable batch oplock.
Thread the caller's inode into the notification path instead of taking
a new reference on it. Every caller of oplock_break() already holds a
live ksmbd_file (or an explicit ksmbd_inode_lookup_lock() reference,
in the parent lease break paths) on the inode that owns the break
target's oplock list, so ci cannot be freed during the call, and its
lock can be taken without dereferencing opinfo->o_fp, which a
concurrent close may free. Select and pin the connection under
ci->m_lock, the same lock session_fd_check() and
ksmbd_reopen_durable_fd() use to update opinfo->conn, so a concurrent
detach either loses the race to the clear or keeps the connection
alive until the notification work releases it. Transfer the reference
to the work item and release it on allocation failures. |
