| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/huge_memory: preserve pmd_swp_uffd_wp on device-private PMD downgrade
change_non_present_huge_pmd() rewrites a writable device-private PMD swap
entry into a readable one without carrying pmd_swp_uffd_wp() across. The
PTE-level change_softleaf_pte() does this correctly; mirror that here,
matching what copy_huge_pmd() does for the fork path. Without the carry,
a plain mprotect() over a UFFD_WP-marked device-private THP strips the bit
and the trap is bypassed on swap-in. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
riscv: cacheinfo: Fix node reference leak in populate_cache_leaves
Currently, the while loop drops the reference to prev in each iteration.
If the loop terminates early due to a break, the final of_node_put(np)
correctly drops the reference to the current node.
However, if the loop terminates naturally because np == NULL, calling
of_node_put(np) is a no-op. This leaves the last valid node stored in
prev without its reference dropped, resulting in a node reference leak.
Fix this by changing the final `of_node_put(np)` to `of_node_put(prev)`. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/core: always put unsuccessfully committed target pids
damon_commit_target() puts and gets the destination and the source target
pids. It puts the destination target pid because it will be overwritten
by the source target pid. It gets the source pid because the caller is
supposed to eventually put the pids. In more detail, the caller will call
damon_destroy_ctx() after damon_commit_ctx() to destroy the entire source
context. And in this case, [f]vaddr operation set's cleanup_target()
callback will put the pids.
The commit operation is made at the context level. The operation can fail
in multiple places including in the middle and after the targets commit
operations. For any such failures, immediately the error is returned to
the damon_commit_ctx() caller. If some or all of the source target pids
were committed to the destination during the unsuccessful context commit
attempt, those pids should be put twice.
The source context will do the put operations using the above explained
routine. However, let's suppose the destination context was not
originally using [f]vaddr operation set and the commit failed before the
ops of the source context is committed. The destination does not have the
cleanup_target() ops callback, so it cannot put the pids via the
damon_destroy_ctx().
As a result, the pids are leaked. The issue in the real world would be
not very common. The commit feature is for changing parameters of running
DAMON context while inheriting internal status like the monitoring
results. The monitoring results of a physical address range ain't have
things that are beneficial to be inherited to a virtual address ranges
monitoring. So the problem-causing DAMON control would be not very common
in the real world. That said, it is a supported feature. And
damon_commit_target() failure due to memory allocation is relatively
realistic [1] if there are a huge number of target regions.
Fix by putting the pids in the commit operation in case of the failures.
The issue was discovered [2] by Sashiko. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: fix dir put orders in access_pattern_add_dirs()
Patch series "mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: fix wrong directories put orders in
error paths".
Error paths of damon_sysfs_access_pattern_add_dirs() and
damon_sysfs_scheme_add_dirs() functions put references to directories in
wrong orders. As a result, uninitialized memory dereference and/or
memory leak can happen. Fix those.
This patch (of 2):
In access_pattern_add_dirs(), error handling path puts references starting
from setup failed directories. If the failure happpened from the initial
allication in the setup functions, uninitialized memory dereference
happen. The allocation failures will not commonly happen, but the
consequence is quite bad. Fix the wrong reference put orders.
The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: put stats for scheme_add_dirs() internal error
damon_sysfs_scheme_add_dirs() setup the tried_regions directory after the
stats directory setup is completed. When the tried_regions directory
setup is failed, the setup function ensures the reference for the tried
regions directory is released. Hence the error path should put references
on setup succeeded directory objects, starting from the stats directory.
However, the error path is putting the tried_regions directory instead of
the stats directory.
As a direct result, the stats directory object is leaked. Worse yet, if
the tried_regions directory setup failed from the initial allocation, the
scheme->tried_regions field remains uninitialized. The following
kobject_put(&scheme->tried_regions->kobj) call in the error path will
dereference the uninitialized memory. The setup failures should not be
common. But once it happens, the consequence is quite bad.
Fix this issue by correctly putting the stats directory instead of the
tried_regions directory.

fs/proc/task_mmu: fix make_uffd_wp_huge_pte() prot-update race
Patch series "userfaultfd/pagemap: pre-existing fixes".
These are pre-existing bug fixes that were carried at the front of the
userfaultfd RWP working-set-tracking series up to v5 [1]. Per review
feedback that fixes should not sit in the middle of a feature series, they
are split out and sent on their own; the RWP series is reposted rebased on
top of this.
All six were flagged by the Sashiko AI review of the RWP series and carry
independent of RWP, apply to mm-new directly, and carry Cc: stable@.
1: fs/proc/task_mmu: a missing huge_ptep_modify_prot_start() in
make_uffd_wp_huge_pte() can lose hardware Dirty/Accessed updates
when PAGEMAP_SCAN write-protects a hugetlb PTE.
2: fs/proc/task_mmu: pagemap_scan_hugetlb_entry() compares the range
against HPAGE_SIZE rather than the hstate page size, so it never
write-protects gigantic hugetlb pages.
3: fs/proc/task_mmu: PAGEMAP_SCAN with PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING over an
unpopulated hugetlb range self-deadlocks -- pagemap_scan_pte_hole()
calls uffd_wp_range() while walk_hugetlb_range() holds the hugetlb
vma lock for read, and hugetlb_change_protection() then takes it
for write. Install the marker inline instead.
4: mm/huge_memory: change_non_present_huge_pmd() drops pmd_swp_uffd_wp
on a device-private PMD permission downgrade, silently losing the
uffd-wp marker.
5: userfaultfd: must_wait() applies pte_write() to a locklessly read
PTE without checking pte_present(), so swap/migration entries
decode random offset bits and a thread can stay parked on a stale
fault.
6: userfaultfd: __VMA_UFFD_FLAGS feeds VMA_UFFD_MINOR_BIT (41) to
mk_vma_flags() unconditionally, an out-of-bounds write into the
single-word vma_flags_t on 32-bit. Build the mask from config-gated
per-mode masks so an unavailable bit is never materialised.
This patch (of 6):
make_uffd_wp_huge_pte() arms the UFFD_WP bit on a present HugeTLB PTE by
calling huge_ptep_modify_prot_commit() with a ptent snapshot that was
fetched without the corresponding huge_ptep_modify_prot_start(). The
start helper is what atomically clears the entry so the kernel-owned
snapshot stays consistent until the commit; without it, the hardware may
set Dirty or Accessed in the live PTE between the original read and the
commit, and huge_ptep_modify_prot_commit() (whose generic implementation
just calls set_huge_pte_at()) then writes the stale snapshot back over the
live hardware bits, losing the update.
The non-hugetlb sibling make_uffd_wp_pte() does this correctly via
ptep_modify_prot_start() / ptep_modify_prot_commit(). Mirror that pattern
for the present-PTE branch. The migration case stays as-is -- migration
entries are non-present, so there's no hardware update to race against. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/proc/task_mmu: fix hugetlb self-deadlock in pagemap_scan_pte_hole()
A PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl requesting PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING on a hugetlb VMA hangs
the calling thread, unkillably, as soon as the scan reaches an unpopulated
part of the range:
do_pagemap_scan()
walk_page_range()
walk_hugetlb_range()
hugetlb_vma_lock_read() # take the vma lock for read ...
pagemap_scan_pte_hole() # ... ->pte_hole() for a hole
uffd_wp_range()
change_protection()
hugetlb_change_protection()
hugetlb_vma_lock_write() # ... and block taking it for write
walk_hugetlb_range() holds the hugetlb vma lock for read across the whole
walk. A present entry goes to ->hugetlb_entry(); an unpopulated one goes
to ->pte_hole(), i.e. pagemap_scan_pte_hole(). To write-protect the hole
that handler calls uffd_wp_range(), which on a hugetlb VMA reaches
hugetlb_change_protection() and takes the same vma lock for write. The
thread then blocks in down_write() waiting for the read lock it is itself
holding.
The populated path avoids this: pagemap_scan_hugetlb_entry()
write-protects the entry inline under the page-table lock and never enters
hugetlb_change_protection().
Do the same for holes. Fault in the page table and install the uffd-wp
marker directly with make_uffd_wp_huge_pte() under the page-table lock,
rather than routing through uffd_wp_range(). That is the same sequence
hugetlb_change_protection() runs for an unpopulated entry, minus the vma
write lock -- which is safe to skip because PMD sharing is disabled on
uffd-wp VMAs (hugetlb_unshare_all_pmds() runs at registration), leaving
nothing for that lock to serialise against. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/proc/task_mmu: do not warn on seeing non-migration pmd entry
Patch series "mm/hmm: A fix and a selftest", v3.
Patch 1 fixes a stale warning present from the time when only migration
softleaf entries were supported at the PMD level.
Patch 2 adds some code into hmm-tests.c which exercises the pagemap path
for PMD device-private entries.
This patch (of 2):
pagemap_pmd_range_thp() warns if a non-present PMD is not a migration
entry. This became false once device-private entries at the PMD level
were added.
Therefore, remove the stale migration-only assertion. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/mm_init: fix uninitialized struct pages for ZONE_DEVICE
If DAX memory is hotplugged into an unoccupied subsection of an early
section, section_activate() reuses the unoptimized boot memmap. However,
compound_nr_pages() still assumes that vmemmap optimization is in effect
and initializes only the reduced number of struct pages. As a result, the
remaining tail struct pages are left uninitialized, which can later lead
to unexpected behavior or crashes.
Fix this by treating early sections as unoptimized when calculating how
many struct pages to initialize. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mtd: slram: remove failed entries from the device list
register_device() links a new slram_mtdlist entry before allocating all
of the state needed by the entry. If a later allocation, memremap(), or
mtd_device_register() fails, the partially initialized entry remains on
the global list. A later cleanup can then dereference or free invalid
state from that failed entry.
Unwind the partially initialized entry and clear the list tail on each
failure path after the entry has been linked. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
9p: skip nlink update in cacheless mode to fix WARN_ON
v9fs_dec_count() unconditionally calls drop_nlink() on regular files,
even when the inode's nlink is already zero. In cacheless mode the
client refetches inode metadata from the server (the source of truth)
on every operation, so by the time v9fs_remove() returns, the locally
cached nlink may already reflect the post-unlink value:
1. Client initiates unlink, server processes it and sets nlink to 0
2. Client refetches inode metadata (nlink=0) before unlink returns
3. Client's v9fs_remove() completes successfully
4. Client calls v9fs_dec_count() which calls drop_nlink() on nlink=0
This race is easily triggered under heavy unlink workloads, such as
stress-ng's unlink stressor, producing the following warning:
WARNING: fs/inode.c:417 at drop_nlink+0x4c/0xc8
Call trace:
drop_nlink+0x4c/0xc8
v9fs_remove+0x1e0/0x250 [9p]
v9fs_vfs_unlink+0x20/0x38 [9p]
vfs_unlink+0x13c/0x258
...
In cacheless mode the server is authoritative and the inode is on its
way out, so locally adjusting nlink buys nothing. Skip v9fs_dec_count()
entirely when neither CACHE_META nor CACHE_LOOSE is set, which both
avoids the warning and removes a class of nlink races (two concurrent
unlinkers observing nlink > 0 and both calling drop_nlink()) that an
nlink == 0 guard alone would only narrow rather than close. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kho: make sure scratch size is always aligned by CMA_MIN_ALIGNMENT_BYTES
When using scratch_scale, the scratch sizes are rounded up to
CMA_MIN_ALIGNMENT_BYTES since they will be released as MIGRATE_CMA. This
is not done when using fixed scratch sizes via command line. This can
result in user specifying a size which is not aligned, and thus kernel
releasing a pageblock that is only partially scratch.
Do the rounding up for both cases in scratch_size_update(). |

mtd: maps: vmu-flash: fix fault in unaligned fixup
Use kzalloc_obj() / kzalloc_objs() to allocate the memcard structs,
instead of kmalloc_obj() / kmalloc_objs() to prevent access to
uninitialized data.
Fixes runtime error: Fault in unaligned fixup: 0000 [#1] at
mtd_get_fact_prot_info. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mtd: rawnand: pl353: fix probe resource allocation
During probe(), the devm_ioremap() is called with the parent device
instead of the current one. So when the module is unloaded, the register
area isn't released.
Target the pl35x device in the devm_ioremap() instead of its parent. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/9p: fix infinite loop in p9_client_rpc on fatal signal
When p9_client_rpc() is called with type P9_TFLUSH and the transport
has no peer (e.g. fd transport backed by pipes with no 9p server),
a fatal signal causes an infinite loop:
again:
err = io_wait_event_killable(req->wq, ...)
/* SIGKILL wakes the task, returns -ERESTARTSYS */
if (err == -ERESTARTSYS && c->status == Connected &&
type == P9_TFLUSH) {
sigpending = 1;
clear_thread_flag(TIF_SIGPENDING);
goto again;
}
clear_thread_flag() clears TIF_SIGPENDING before jumping back to
io_wait_event_killable(). signal_pending_state() checks TIF_SIGPENDING,
finds it zero, and the task goes to sleep again. The task can only wake
on the next signal delivery that calls signal_wake_up() and sets
TIF_SIGPENDING again. When that happens the loop repeats, clears
TIF_SIGPENDING, and sleeps again indefinitely.
This is triggered in practice by coredump_wait(): when a thread in a
multi-threaded process causes a coredump (e.g. via SIGSYS from Syscall
User Dispatch), coredump_wait() sends SIGKILL to all other threads and
waits for them to call mm_release(). If one of those threads is blocked
in p9_client_rpc() over an fd transport with no peer, it enters the
P9_TFLUSH loop and never calls mm_release(), so coredump_wait() stalls
forever:

Fix: check fatal_signal_pending() before clearing TIF_SIGPENDING in the
P9_TFLUSH retry loop. At that point TIF_SIGPENDING is still set, so
fatal_signal_pending() works correctly. If a fatal signal is pending,
jump to recalc_sigpending to restore TIF_SIGPENDING and return
-ERESTARTSYS to the caller.
The same defect is present in stable kernels back to 5.4. On those
kernels the infinite loop is broken earlier by a second SIGKILL from
the parent process (e.g. kill_and_wait() retrying after a timeout),
resulting in a zombie process and a shutdown delay rather than a
permanent D-state hang, but the underlying flaw is the same.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: avoid moving extents to occupied clusters
For non-auto OCFS2_IOC_MOVE_EXT operations, userspace supplies a physical
me_goal. ocfs2_move_extent() initializes new_phys_cpos from that goal and
expects ocfs2_probe_alloc_group() to replace it with a free run in the
target block group.
The probe currently leaves *phys_cpos unchanged if the scan reaches the
end of the group without finding a free run. An occupied goal at the last
bit can therefore survive the probe and be passed to
__ocfs2_move_extent(), which copies file data into a cluster still owned
by another inode before the bitmap is updated.
When the probe does find a free run, it also subtracts move_len from the
ending bit. The start of an N-bit run ending at i is i - N + 1, so the
current calculation can report the bit immediately before the free run.
Clear *phys_cpos before scanning and use the correct free-run start.
Callers already treat a zero result as -ENOSPC, so failed probes no longer
continue with an occupied caller-controlled goal. |

ocfs2: fix NULL h_transaction deref in ocfs2_assure_trans_credits
[BUG]
A direct write over unwritten extents can panic the kernel in
ocfs2_assure_trans_credits() when the journal aborts during DIO
completion. The crash is a general protection fault from a NULL pointer
dereference.
[CAUSE]
ocfs2_dio_end_io_write() loops over a direct write's unwritten extents,
marking each written under a single journal handle. If the journal
aborts (for example after an I/O error) while the extent tree is being
updated, the handle is left aborted with its transaction pointer
cleared. The extent merge treats that failure as not critical and
reports success, so the loop keeps using the handle.
ocfs2_assure_trans_credits() reads the handle's remaining credits
without first checking whether the handle is aborted, and that read
dereferences the cleared transaction pointer.
[FIX]
A journal abort is recorded in the handle itself, so callers are
expected to test the handle rather than rely on a returned error.
Make ocfs2_assure_trans_credits() do that, as the other ocfs2 journal
helpers already do, and return -EROFS when the handle is aborted. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: fix UBSAN array-index-out-of-bounds in ocfs2_sum_rightmost_rec
[BUG]
On-disk corruption setting l_next_free_rec to 0 in an inode's embedded
extent list triggers a UBSAN panic on the next write to that file.
[CAUSE]
ocfs2_sum_rightmost_rec() computes
i = le16_to_cpu(el->l_next_free_rec) - 1
and accesses el->l_recs[i] without validating i. When l_next_free_rec
is 0, i becomes -1; when l_next_free_rec exceeds l_count, i falls
past the end of the array. Either case violates the
__counted_by_le(l_count) annotation on l_recs[] and triggers UBSAN.
[FIX]
Validate the inode's embedded extent list when the inode is read, in
ocfs2_validate_inode_block(): l_count must be non-zero and no larger
than the inode block can hold, and l_next_free_rec must not exceed
l_count. A corrupt list is rejected at read time, before the b-tree
code can index l_recs[] out of bounds. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: add journal NULL check in ocfs2_checkpoint_inode()
During unmount, ocfs2_journal_shutdown() frees the journal and sets
osb->journal to NULL. Later, when VFS evicts remaining cached inodes,
ocfs2_evict_inode() -> ocfs2_clear_inode() -> ocfs2_checkpoint_inode()
-> ocfs2_ci_fully_checkpointed() dereferences osb->journal, causing a
NULL pointer dereference.
Fix this by adding a NULL check for osb->journal in
ocfs2_checkpoint_inode(). If the journal is NULL, it has already been
fully flushed and destroyed during shutdown, so there is nothing to
checkpoint. |
