| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix memory leak in ext4_ext_shift_extents()
In ext4_ext_shift_extents(), if the extent is NULL in the while loop, the
function returns immediately without releasing the path obtained via
ext4_find_extent(), leading to a memory leak.
Fix this by jumping to the out label to ensure the path is properly
released. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: Fix memory leak in amdgpu_acpi_enumerate_xcc()
In amdgpu_acpi_enumerate_xcc(), if amdgpu_acpi_dev_init() returns -ENOMEM,
the function returns directly without releasing the allocated xcc_info,
resulting in a memory leak.
Fix this by ensuring that xcc_info is properly freed in the error paths.
Compile tested only. Issue found using a prototype static analysis tool
and code review. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tpm: tpm_i2c_infineon: Fix locality leak on get_burstcount() failure
get_burstcount() can return -EBUSY on timeout. When this happens, the
function returns directly without releasing the locality that was
acquired at the beginning of tpm_tis_i2c_send().
Use goto out_err to ensure proper cleanup when get_burstcount() fails. |

net: stmmac: fix oops when split header is enabled
For GMAC4, when split header is enabled, in some rare cases, the
hardware does not fill buf2 of the first descriptor with payload.
Thus we cannot assume buf2 is always fully filled if it is not
the last descriptor. Otherwise, the length of buf2 of the second
descriptor will be calculated wrong and cause an oops:

thermal/of: Fix reference leak in thermal_of_cm_lookup()
In thermal_of_cm_lookup(), tr_np is obtained via of_parse_phandle(), but
never released.
Use the __free(device_node) cleanup attribute to automatically release
the node and fix the leak.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: usb: catc: enable basic endpoint checking
catc_probe() fills three URBs with hardcoded endpoint pipes without
verifying the endpoint descriptors:
- usb_sndbulkpipe(usbdev, 1) and usb_rcvbulkpipe(usbdev, 1) for TX/RX
- usb_rcvintpipe(usbdev, 2) for interrupt status
A malformed USB device can present these endpoints with transfer types
that differ from what the driver assumes.
Add a catc_usb_ep enum for endpoint numbers, replacing magic constants
throughout. Add usb_check_bulk_endpoints() and usb_check_int_endpoints()
calls after usb_set_interface() to verify endpoint types before use,
rejecting devices with mismatched descriptors at probe time.
Similar to
- commit 90b7f2961798 ("net: usb: rtl8150: enable basic endpoint checking")
which fixed the issue in rtl8150. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/mlx5: Fix memory leak in GET_DATA_DIRECT_SYSFS_PATH handler
The UVERBS_HANDLER(MLX5_IB_METHOD_GET_DATA_DIRECT_SYSFS_PATH) function
allocates memory for the device path using kobject_get_path(). If the
length of the device path exceeds the output buffer length, the function
returns -ENOSPC but does not free the allocated memory, resulting in a
memory leak.
Add a kfree() call to the error path to ensure the allocated memory is
properly freed.
Compile tested only. Issue found using a prototype static analysis tool
and code review. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix dirtyclusters double decrement on fs shutdown
fstests test generic/388 occasionally reproduces a warning in
ext4_put_super() associated with the dirty clusters count:
WARNING: CPU: 7 PID: 76064 at fs/ext4/super.c:1324 ext4_put_super+0x48c/0x590 [ext4]
Tracing the failure shows that the warning fires due to an
s_dirtyclusters_counter value of -1. IOW, this appears to be a
spurious decrement as opposed to some sort of leak. Further tracing
of the dirty cluster count deltas and an LLM scan of the resulting
output identified the cause as a double decrement in the error path
between ext4_mb_mark_diskspace_used() and the caller
ext4_mb_new_blocks().
First, note that generic/388 is a shutdown vs. fsstress test and so
produces a random set of operations and shutdown injections. In the
problematic case, the shutdown triggers an error return from the
ext4_handle_dirty_metadata() call(s) made from
ext4_mb_mark_context(). The changed value is non-zero at this point,
so ext4_mb_mark_diskspace_used() does not exit after the error
bubbles up from ext4_mb_mark_context(). Instead, the former
decrements both cluster counters and returns the error up to
ext4_mb_new_blocks(). The latter falls into the !ar->len out path
which decrements the dirty clusters counter a second time, creating
the inconsistency.
To avoid this problem and simplify ownership of the cluster
reservation in this codepath, lift the counter reduction to a single
place in the caller. This makes it more clear that
ext4_mb_new_blocks() is responsible for acquiring cluster
reservation (via ext4_claim_free_clusters()) in the !delalloc case
as well as releasing it, regardless of whether it ends up consumed
or returned due to failure. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched/rt: Skip currently executing CPU in rto_next_cpu()
CPU0 becomes overloaded when hosting a CPU-bound RT task, a non-CPU-bound
RT task, and a CFS task stuck in kernel space. When other CPUs switch from
RT to non-RT tasks, RT load balancing (LB) is triggered; with
HAVE_RT_PUSH_IPI enabled, they send IPIs to CPU0 to drive the execution
of rto_push_irq_work_func. During push_rt_task on CPU0,
if next_task->prio < rq->donor->prio, resched_curr() sets NEED_RESCHED
and after the push operation completes, CPU0 calls rto_next_cpu().
Since only CPU0 is overloaded in this scenario, rto_next_cpu() should
ideally return -1 (no further IPI needed).
However, multiple CPUs invoking tell_cpu_to_push() during LB increments
rd->rto_loop_next. Even when rd->rto_cpu is set to -1, the mismatch between
rd->rto_loop and rd->rto_loop_next forces rto_next_cpu() to restart its
search from -1. With CPU0 remaining overloaded (satisfying rt_nr_migratory
&& rt_nr_total > 1), it gets reselected, causing CPU0 to queue irq_work to
itself and send self-IPIs repeatedly. As long as CPU0 stays overloaded and
other CPUs run pull_rt_tasks(), it falls into an infinite self-IPI loop,
which triggers a CPU hardlockup due to continuous self-interrupts.
The trigging scenario is as follows:
cpu0 cpu1 cpu2
pull_rt_task
tell_cpu_to_push
<------------irq_work_queue_on
rto_push_irq_work_func
push_rt_task
resched_curr(rq) pull_rt_task
rto_next_cpu tell_cpu_to_push
<-------------------------- atomic_inc(rto_loop_next)
rd->rto_loop != next
rto_next_cpu
irq_work_queue_on
rto_push_irq_work_func
Fix redundant self-IPI by filtering the initiating CPU in rto_next_cpu().
This solution has been verified to effectively eliminate spurious self-IPIs
and prevent CPU hardlockup scenarios. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipvs: do not keep dest_dst if dev is going down
There is race between the netdev notifier ip_vs_dst_event()
and the code that caches dst with dev that is going down.
As the FIB can be notified for the closed device after our
handler finishes, it is possible valid route to be returned
and cached resuling in a leaked dev reference until the dest
is not removed.
To prevent new dest_dst to be attached to dest just after the
handler dropped the old one, add a netif_running() check
to make sure the notifier handler is not currently running
for device that is closing. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fat: avoid parent link count underflow in rmdir
Corrupted FAT images can leave a directory inode with an incorrect
i_nlink (e.g. 2 even though subdirectories exist). rmdir then
unconditionally calls drop_nlink(dir) and can drive i_nlink to 0,
triggering the WARN_ON in drop_nlink().
Add a sanity check in vfat_rmdir() and msdos_rmdir(): only drop the
parent link count when it is at least 3, otherwise report a filesystem
error. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bridge: mcast: always update mdb_n_entries for vlan contexts
syzbot triggered a warning[1] about the number of mdb entries in a context.
It turned out that there are multiple ways to trigger that warning today
(some got added during the years), the root cause of the problem is that
the increase is done conditionally, and over the years these different
conditions increased so there were new ways to trigger the warning, that is
to do a decrease which wasn't paired with a previous increase.
For example one way to trigger it is with flush:
$ ip l add br0 up type bridge vlan_filtering 1 mcast_snooping 1
$ ip l add dumdum up master br0 type dummy
$ bridge mdb add dev br0 port dumdum grp 239.0.0.1 permanent vid 1
$ ip link set dev br0 down
$ ip link set dev br0 type bridge mcast_vlan_snooping 1
^^^^ this will enable snooping, but will not update mdb_n_entries
because in __br_multicast_enable_port_ctx() we check !netif_running
$ bridge mdb flush dev br0
^^^ this will trigger the warning because it will delete the pg which
we added above, which will try to decrease mdb_n_entries
Fix the problem by removing the conditional increase and always keep the
count up-to-date while the vlan exists. In order to do that we have to
first initialize it on port-vlan context creation, and then always increase
or decrease the value regardless of mcast options. To keep the current
behaviour we have to enforce the mdb limit only if the context is port's or
if the port-vlan's mcast snooping is enabled.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: don't cache extent during splitting extent
Caching extents during the splitting process is risky, as it may result
in stale extents remaining in the status tree. Moreover, in most cases,
the corresponding extent block entries are likely already cached before
the split happens, making caching here not particularly useful.
Assume we have an unwritten extent, and then DIO writes the first half.
[UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU] on-disk extent U: unwritten extent
[UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU] extent status tree
|<- ->| ----> dio write this range
First, when ext4_split_extent_at() splits this extent, it truncates the
existing extent and then inserts a new one. During this process, this
extent status entry may be shrunk, and calls to ext4_find_extent() and
ext4_cache_extents() may occur, which could potentially insert the
truncated range as a hole into the extent status tree. After the split
is completed, this hole is not replaced with the correct status.
[UUUUUUU|UUUUUUUU] on-disk extent U: unwritten extent
[UUUUUUU|HHHHHHHH] extent status tree H: hole
Then, the outer calling functions will not correct this remaining hole
extent either. Finally, if we perform a delayed buffer write on this
latter part, it will re-insert the delayed extent and cause an error in
space accounting.
In adition, if the unwritten extent cache is not shrunk during the
splitting, ext4_cache_extents() also conflicts with existing extents
when caching extents. In the future, we will add checks when caching
extents, which will trigger a warning. Therefore, Do not cache extents
that are being split. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: fix ip_rt_bug race in icmp_route_lookup reverse path
icmp_route_lookup() performs multiple route lookups to find a suitable
route for sending ICMP error messages, with special handling for XFRM
(IPsec) policies.
The lookup sequence is:
1. First, lookup output route for ICMP reply (dst = original src)
2. Pass through xfrm_lookup() for policy check
3. If blocked (-EPERM) or dst is not local, enter "reverse path"
4. In reverse path, call xfrm_decode_session_reverse() to get fl4_dec
which reverses the original packet's flow (saddr<->daddr swapped)
5. If fl4_dec.saddr is local (we are the original destination), use
__ip_route_output_key() for output route lookup
6. If fl4_dec.saddr is NOT local (we are a forwarding node), use
ip_route_input() to simulate the reverse packet's input path
7. Finally, pass rt2 through xfrm_lookup() with XFRM_LOOKUP_ICMP flag
The bug occurs in step 6: ip_route_input() is called with fl4_dec.daddr
(original packet's source) as destination. If this address becomes local
between the initial check and ip_route_input() call (e.g., due to
concurrent "ip addr add"), ip_route_input() returns a LOCAL route with
dst.output set to ip_rt_bug.
This route is then used for ICMP output, causing dst_output() to call
ip_rt_bug(), triggering a WARN_ON:

The reproducer requires kernel modification to widen the race window,
making it unsuitable as a selftest. It is available at:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/eeh: fix recursive pci_lock_rescan_remove locking in EEH event handling
The recent commit 1010b4c012b0 ("powerpc/eeh: Make EEH driver device
hotplug safe") restructured the EEH driver to improve synchronization
with the PCI hotplug layer.
However, it inadvertently moved pci_lock_rescan_remove() outside its
intended scope in eeh_handle_normal_event(), leading to broken PCI
error reporting and improper EEH event triggering. Specifically,
eeh_handle_normal_event() acquired pci_lock_rescan_remove() before
calling eeh_pe_bus_get(), but eeh_pe_bus_get() itself attempts to
acquire the same lock internally, causing nested locking and disrupting
normal EEH event handling paths.
This patch adds a boolean parameter do_lock to _eeh_pe_bus_get(),
with two public wrappers:
eeh_pe_bus_get() with locking enabled.
eeh_pe_bus_get_nolock() that skips locking.
Callers that already hold pci_lock_rescan_remove() now use
eeh_pe_bus_get_nolock() to avoid recursive lock acquisition.
Additionally, pci_lock_rescan_remove() calls are restored to the correct
position—after eeh_pe_bus_get() and immediately before iterating affected
PEs and devices. This ensures EEH-triggered PCI removes occur under proper
bus rescan locking without recursive lock contention.
The eeh_pe_loc_get() function has been split into two functions:
eeh_pe_loc_get(struct eeh_pe *pe) which retrieves the loc for given PE.
eeh_pe_loc_get_bus(struct pci_bus *bus) which retrieves the location
code for given bus.
This resolves lockdep warnings such as:

netfilter: nf_tables: revert commit_mutex usage in reset path
It causes circular lock dependency between commit_mutex, nfnl_subsys_ipset
and nlk_cb_mutex when nft reset, ipset list, and iptables-nft with '-m set'
rule run at the same time.
Previous patches made it safe to run individual reset handlers concurrently
so commit_mutex is no longer required to prevent this. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: drop extent cache when splitting extent fails
When the split extent fails, we might leave some extents still being
processed and return an error directly, which will result in stale
extent entries remaining in the extent status tree. So drop all of the
remaining potentially stale extents if the splitting fails. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nft_counter: serialize reset with spinlock
Add a global static spinlock to serialize counter fetch+reset
operations, preventing concurrent dump-and-reset from underrunning
values.
The lock is taken before fetching the total so that two parallel
resets cannot both read the same counter values and then both
subtract them.
A global lock is used for simplicity since resets are infrequent.
If this becomes a bottleneck, it can be replaced with a per-net
lock later. |

ext4_split_extent_at() failed to split this extent due to temporary lack
of space. It zeroout B to N and leave the entire extent as unwritten.
0 A B N
[UUUUUUUUUUUU] on-disk extent
[UUUUUUUUUUUU] extent status tree
[--DDDDDDDDZZ] Z: zeroed data
ext4_split_extent() then try to split this extent at A with
EXT4_EXT_DATA_VALID2 flag set. This time, it split successfully and
leave an written extent from A to N.
0 A B N
[UUWWWWWWWWWW] on-disk extent W: written extent
[UUUUUUUUUUUU] extent status tree
[--DDDDDDDDZZ]
Finally ext4_map_create_blocks() only insert extent A to B to the extent
status tree, and leave an stale unwritten extent in the status tree.
0 A B N
[UUWWWWWWWWWW] on-disk extent W: written extent
[UUWWWWWWWWUU] extent status tree
[--DDDDDDDDZZ]
Fix this issue by always cached extent status entry after zeroing out
the second part. |

net: hns3: fix double free issue for tx spare buffer
In hns3_set_ringparam(), a temporary copy (tmp_rings) of the ring structure
is created for rollback. However, the tx_spare pointer in the original
ring handle is incorrectly left pointing to the old backup memory.
Later, if memory allocation fails in hns3_init_all_ring() during the setup,
the error path attempts to free all newly allocated rings. Since tx_spare
contains a stale (non-NULL) pointer from the backup, it is mistaken for
a newly allocated buffer and is erroneously freed, leading to a double-free
of the backup memory.
The root cause is that the tx_spare field was not cleared after its value
was saved in tmp_rings, leaving a dangling pointer.
Fix this by setting tx_spare to NULL in the original ring structure
when the creation of the new `tx_spare` fails. This ensures the
error cleanup path only frees genuinely newly allocated buffers. |
