| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: pcm: oss: Fix data race at accessing runtime.oss.trigger
Currently the runtime.oss.trigger field may be accessed concurrently
without protection, which may lead to the data race. And, in this
case, it may lead to more severe problem because it's a bit field; as
writing the data, it may overwrite other bit fields as well, which
confuses the operation completely, as spotted by fuzzing.
Fix it by covering runtime.oss.trigger bit fled also with the existing
params_lock mutex in both snd_pcm_oss_get_trigger() and
snd_pcm_oss_poll(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: don't set EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_CONVERT when splitting before submitting I/O
When allocating blocks during within-EOF DIO and writeback with
dioread_nolock enabled, EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_PRE_IO was set to split an
existing large unwritten extent. However, EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_CONVERT was
set when calling ext4_split_convert_extents(), which may potentially
result in stale data issues.
Assume we have an unwritten extent, and then DIO writes the second half.
[UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU] on-disk extent U: unwritten extent
[UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU] extent status tree
|<- ->| ----> dio write this range
First, ext4_iomap_alloc() call ext4_map_blocks() with
EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_PRE_IO, EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_UNWRIT_EXT and
EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_CREATE flags set. ext4_map_blocks() find this extent and
call ext4_split_convert_extents() with EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_CONVERT and the
above flags set.
Then, ext4_split_convert_extents() calls ext4_split_extent() with
EXT4_EXT_MAY_ZEROOUT, EXT4_EXT_MARK_UNWRIT2 and EXT4_EXT_DATA_VALID2
flags set, and it calls ext4_split_extent_at() to split the second half
with EXT4_EXT_DATA_VALID2, EXT4_EXT_MARK_UNWRIT1, EXT4_EXT_MAY_ZEROOUT
and EXT4_EXT_MARK_UNWRIT2 flags set. However, ext4_split_extent_at()
failed to insert extent since a temporary lack -ENOSPC. It zeroes out
the first half but convert the entire on-disk extent to written since
the EXT4_EXT_DATA_VALID2 flag set, but left the second half as unwritten
in the extent status tree.
[0000000000SSSSSS] data S: stale data, 0: zeroed
[WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW] on-disk extent W: written extent
[WWWWWWWWWWUUUUUU] extent status tree
Finally, if the DIO failed to write data to the disk, the stale data in
the second half will be exposed once the cached extent entry is gone.
Fix this issue by not passing EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_CONVERT when splitting
an unwritten extent before submitting I/O, and make
ext4_split_convert_extents() to zero out the entire extent range
to zero for this case, and also mark the extent in the extent status
tree for consistency. |

hwrng: core - use RCU and work_struct to fix race condition
Currently, hwrng_fill is not cleared until the hwrng_fillfn() thread
exits. Since hwrng_unregister() reads hwrng_fill outside the rng_mutex
lock, a concurrent hwrng_unregister() may call kthread_stop() again on
the same task.
Additionally, if hwrng_unregister() is called immediately after
hwrng_register(), the stopped thread may have never been executed. Thus,
hwrng_fill remains dirty even after hwrng_unregister() returns. In this
case, subsequent calls to hwrng_register() will fail to start new
threads, and hwrng_unregister() will call kthread_stop() on the same
freed task. In both cases, a use-after-free occurs:
refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.
WARNING: ... at lib/refcount.c:25 refcount_warn_saturate+0xec/0x1c0
Call Trace:
kthread_stop+0x181/0x360
hwrng_unregister+0x288/0x380
virtrng_remove+0xe3/0x200
This patch fixes the race by protecting the global hwrng_fill pointer
inside the rng_mutex lock, so that hwrng_fillfn() thread is stopped only
once, and calls to kthread_run() and kthread_stop() are serialized
with the lock held.
To avoid deadlock in hwrng_fillfn() while being stopped with the lock
held, we convert current_rng to RCU, so that get_current_rng() can read
current_rng without holding the lock. To remove the lock from put_rng(),
we also delay the actual cleanup into a work_struct.
Since get_current_rng() no longer returns ERR_PTR values, the IS_ERR()
checks are removed from its callers.
With hwrng_fill protected by the rng_mutex lock, hwrng_fillfn() can no
longer clear hwrng_fill itself. Therefore, if hwrng_fillfn() returns
directly after current_rng is dropped, kthread_stop() would be called on
a freed task_struct later. To fix this, hwrng_fillfn() calls schedule()
now to keep the task alive until being stopped. The kthread_stop() call
is also moved from hwrng_unregister() to drop_current_rng(), ensuring
kthread_stop() is called on all possible paths where current_rng becomes
NULL, so that the thread would not wait forever. |

iommu/vt-d: Clear Present bit before tearing down context entry
When tearing down a context entry, the current implementation zeros the
entire 128-bit entry using multiple 64-bit writes. This creates a window
where the hardware can fetch a "torn" entry — where some fields are
already zeroed while the 'Present' bit is still set — leading to
unpredictable behavior or spurious faults.
While x86 provides strong write ordering, the compiler may reorder writes
to the two 64-bit halves of the context entry. Even without compiler
reordering, the hardware fetch is not guaranteed to be atomic with
respect to multiple CPU writes.
Align with the "Guidance to Software for Invalidations" in the VT-d spec
(Section 6.5.3.3) by implementing the recommended ownership handshake:
1. Clear only the 'Present' (P) bit of the context entry first to
signal the transition of ownership from hardware to software.
2. Use dma_wmb() to ensure the cleared bit is visible to the IOMMU.
3. Perform the required cache and context-cache invalidation to ensure
hardware no longer has cached references to the entry.
4. Fully zero out the entry only after the invalidation is complete.
Also, add a dma_wmb() to context_set_present() to ensure the entry
is fully initialized before the 'Present' bit becomes visible. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix e4b bitmap inconsistency reports
A bitmap inconsistency issue was observed during stress tests under
mixed huge-page workloads. Ext4 reported multiple e4b bitmap check
failures like:
ext4_mb_complex_scan_group:2508: group 350, 8179 free clusters as
per group info. But got 8192 blocks
Analysis and experimentation confirmed that the issue is caused by a
race condition between page migration and bitmap modification. Although
this timing window is extremely narrow, it is still hit in practice:
folio_lock ext4_mb_load_buddy
__migrate_folio
check ref count
folio_mc_copy __filemap_get_folio
folio_try_get(folio)
......
mb_mark_used
ext4_mb_unload_buddy
__folio_migrate_mapping
folio_ref_freeze
folio_unlock
The root cause of this issue is that the fast path of load_buddy only
increments the folio's reference count, which is insufficient to prevent
concurrent folio migration. We observed that the folio migration process
acquires the folio lock. Therefore, we can determine whether to take the
fast path in load_buddy by checking the lock status. If the folio is
locked, we opt for the slow path (which acquires the lock) to close this
concurrency window.
Additionally, this change addresses the following issues:
When the DOUBLE_CHECK macro is enabled to inspect bitmap-related
issues, the following error may be triggered:
corruption in group 324 at byte 784(6272): f in copy != ff on
disk/prealloc
Analysis reveals that this is a false positive. There is a specific race
window where the bitmap and the group descriptor become momentarily
inconsistent, leading to this error report:
ext4_mb_load_buddy ext4_mb_load_buddy
__filemap_get_folio(create|lock)
folio_lock
ext4_mb_init_cache
folio_mark_uptodate
__filemap_get_folio(no lock)
......
mb_mark_used
mb_mark_used_double
mb_cmp_bitmaps
mb_set_bits(e4b->bd_bitmap)
folio_unlock
The original logic assumed that since mb_cmp_bitmaps is called when the
bitmap is newly loaded from disk, the folio lock would be sufficient to
prevent concurrent access. However, this overlooks a specific race
condition: if another process attempts to load buddy and finds the folio
is already in an uptodate state, it will immediately begin using it without
holding folio lock. |
| 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:
iommu/vt-d: Clear Present bit before tearing down PASID entry
The Intel VT-d Scalable Mode PASID table entry consists of 512 bits (64
bytes). When tearing down an entry, the current implementation zeros the
entire 64-byte structure immediately using multiple 64-bit writes.
Since the IOMMU hardware may fetch these 64 bytes using multiple
internal transactions (e.g., four 128-bit bursts), updating or zeroing
the entire entry while it is active (P=1) risks a "torn" read. If a
hardware fetch occurs simultaneously with the CPU zeroing the entry, the
hardware could observe an inconsistent state, leading to unpredictable
behavior or spurious faults.
Follow the "Guidance to Software for Invalidations" in the VT-d spec
(Section 6.5.3.3) by implementing the recommended ownership handshake:
1. Clear only the 'Present' (P) bit of the PASID entry.
2. Use a dma_wmb() to ensure the cleared bit is visible to hardware
before proceeding.
3. Execute the required invalidation sequence (PASID cache, IOTLB, and
Device-TLB flush) to ensure the hardware has released all cached
references.
4. Only after the flushes are complete, zero out the remaining fields
of the PASID entry.
Also, add a dma_wmb() in pasid_set_present() to ensure that all other
fields of the PASID entry are visible to the hardware before the Present
bit is set. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: do shared-unconfirmed check before segmentation
Ulrich reports a regression with nfqueue:
If an application did not set the 'F_GSO' capability flag and a gso
packet with an unconfirmed nf_conn entry is received all packets are
now dropped instead of queued, because the check happens after
skb_gso_segment(). In that case, we did have exclusive ownership
of the skb and its associated conntrack entry. The elevated use
count is due to skb_clone happening via skb_gso_segment().
Move the check so that its peformed vs. the aggregated packet.
Then, annotate the individual segments except the first one so we
can do a 2nd check at reinject time.
For the normal case, where userspace does in-order reinjects, this avoids
packet drops: first reinjected segment continues traversal and confirms
entry, remaining segments observe the confirmed entry.
While at it, simplify nf_ct_drop_unconfirmed(): We only care about
unconfirmed entries with a refcnt > 1, there is no need to special-case
dying entries.
This only happens with UDP. With TCP, the only unconfirmed packet will
be the TCP SYN, those aren't aggregated by GRO.
Next patch adds a udpgro test case to cover this scenario. |

i3c: mipi-i3c-hci: Fix race in DMA ring dequeue
The HCI DMA dequeue path (hci_dma_dequeue_xfer()) may be invoked for
multiple transfers that timeout around the same time. However, the
function is not serialized and can race with itself.
When a timeout occurs, hci_dma_dequeue_xfer() stops the ring, processes
incomplete transfers, and then restarts the ring. If another timeout
triggers a parallel call into the same function, the two instances may
interfere with each other - stopping or restarting the ring at unexpected
times.
Add a mutex so that hci_dma_dequeue_xfer() is serialized with respect to
itself. |

btrfs: do not ASSERT() when the fs flips RO inside btrfs_repair_io_failure()
[BUG]
There is a bug report that when btrfs hits ENOSPC error in a critical
path, btrfs flips RO (this part is expected, although the ENOSPC bug
still needs to be addressed).
The problem is after the RO flip, if there is a read repair pending, we
can hit the ASSERT() inside btrfs_repair_io_failure() like the following:

[CAUSE]
The cause of -ENOSPC error during the test case btrfs/124 is still
unknown, although it's known that we still have cases where metadata can
be over-committed but can not be fulfilled correctly, thus if we hit
such ENOSPC error inside a critical path, we have no choice but abort
the current transaction.
This will mark the fs read-only.
The problem is inside the btrfs_repair_io_failure() path that we require
the fs not to be mount read-only. This is normally fine, but if we are
doing a read-repair meanwhile the fs flips RO due to a critical error,
we can enter btrfs_repair_io_failure() with super block set to
read-only, thus triggering the above crash.
[FIX]
Just replace the ASSERT() with a proper return if the fs is already
read-only. |

Bluetooth: hci_sync: annotate data-races around hdev->req_status
__hci_cmd_sync_sk() sets hdev->req_status under hdev->req_lock:
hdev->req_status = HCI_REQ_PEND;
However, several other functions read or write hdev->req_status without
holding any lock:
- hci_send_cmd_sync() reads req_status in hci_cmd_work (workqueue)
- hci_cmd_sync_complete() reads/writes from HCI event completion
- hci_cmd_sync_cancel() / hci_cmd_sync_cancel_sync() read/write
- hci_abort_conn() reads in connection abort path
Since __hci_cmd_sync_sk() runs on hdev->req_workqueue while
hci_send_cmd_sync() runs on hdev->workqueue, these are different
workqueues that can execute concurrently on different CPUs. The plain
C accesses constitute a data race.
Add READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() annotations on all concurrent accesses
to hdev->req_status to prevent potential compiler optimizations that
could affect correctness (e.g., load fusing in the wait_event
condition or store reordering). |

xfrm: Wait for RCU readers during policy netns exit
xfrm_policy_fini() frees the policy_bydst hash tables after flushing the

concurrent RCU readers to leave their read-side critical sections first.
The policy_bydst tables are published via rcu_assign_pointer() and are
looked up through rcu_dereference_check(), so netns teardown must also
wait for an RCU grace period before freeing the table memory.
Fix this by adding synchronize_rcu() before freeing the policy hash tables. |

mpls: add seqcount to protect the platform_label{,s} pair
The RCU-protected codepaths (mpls_forward, mpls_dump_routes) can have
an inconsistent view of platform_labels vs platform_label in case of a
concurrent resize (resize_platform_label_table, under
platform_mutex). This can lead to OOB accesses.
This patch adds a seqcount, so that we get a consistent snapshot.
Note that mpls_label_ok is also susceptible to this, so the check
against RTA_DST in rtm_to_route_config, done outside platform_mutex,
is not sufficient. This value gets passed to mpls_label_ok once more
in both mpls_route_add and mpls_route_del, so there is no issue, but
that additional check must not be removed. |

drm/i915/dsi: Don't do DSC horizontal timing adjustments in command mode
Stop adjusting the horizontal timing values based on the
compression ratio in command mode. Bspec seems to be telling
us to do this only in video mode, and this is also how the
Windows driver does things.
This should also fix a div-by-zero on some machines because
the adjusted htotal ends up being so small that we end up with
line_time_us==0 when trying to determine the vtotal value in
command mode.
Note that this doesn't actually make the display on the
Huawei Matebook E work, but at least the kernel no longer
explodes when the driver loads.

hwmon: (pmbus/core) Protect regulator operations with mutex
The regulator operations pmbus_regulator_get_voltage(),
pmbus_regulator_set_voltage(), and pmbus_regulator_list_voltage()
access PMBus registers and shared data but were not protected by
the update_lock mutex. This could lead to race conditions.
However, adding mutex protection directly to these functions causes
a deadlock because pmbus_regulator_notify() (which calls
regulator_notifier_call_chain()) is often called with the mutex
already held (e.g., from pmbus_fault_handler()). If a regulator
callback then calls one of the now-protected voltage functions,
it will attempt to acquire the same mutex.
Rework pmbus_regulator_notify() to utilize a worker function to
send notifications outside of the mutex protection. Events are
stored as atomics in a per-page bitmask and processed by the worker.
Initialize the worker and its associated data during regulator
registration, and ensure it is cancelled on device removal using
devm_add_action_or_reset().
While at it, remove the unnecessary include of linux/of.h. |
