ALSA: seq: oss: Fix UAF at handling events with embedded SysEx data
The OSS sequencer processes the input MIDI bytes into a sequencer
event to be dispatched later (in snd_seq_oss_midi_putc() called from
snd_seq_oss_process_event()). When it's a SysEx data, the event
record contains data.ext.ptr pointer to the original SysEx bytes, and
the referred data is copied into the pool afterwards at dispatching.
The problem is that, if the sequencer port gets closed concurrently
before the dispatch, the OSS sequencer core also releases the
resources (in snd_seq_oss_midi_check_exit_port()), while the pending
event may hold a stale pointer, eventually leading to a UAF at a later
dispatch.
Fortunately, there is already a refcounting mechanism (snd_use_lock_t)
for the OSS MIDI device access, and for addressing the issue above, we
just need to extend the refcount until the event gets dispatched.
This patch extends snd_seq_oss_process_event() to give back the
refcount object, which is in turn released after calling the sequencer
dispatcher with the given event in the caller side.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: seq: midi: Serialize output teardown with event_input
event_process_midi() borrows msynth->output_rfile.output and then
passes the substream to dump_midi() and snd_rawmidi_kernel_write()
without synchronizing with the output open/close transition.
midisynth_use() also publishes output_rfile before
snd_rawmidi_output_params() has finished.
The last midisynth_unuse() can therefore release the same rawmidi file
and free substream->runtime before snd_rawmidi_kernel_write1() takes
its runtime buffer reference. That leaves the event_input path using a
stale substream or runtime and can end in a NULL-deref or use-after-free.
Fix this with two pieces of synchronization. Keep a short IRQ-safe
spinlock only for publishing or clearing output_rfile and for pairing
the output snapshot with an snd_use_lock_t reference. Once
event_process_midi() has taken that in-flight reference, it drops the
spinlock before calling snd_seq_dump_var_event(), dump_midi(), or
snd_rawmidi_kernel_write(). midisynth_unuse() now detaches the visible
rawmidi file under the same spinlock, waits for the in-flight writers
to drain, and only then drains and releases the saved file.
midisynth_use() likewise opens into a local snd_rawmidi_file and
publishes it only after snd_rawmidi_output_params() succeeds.
The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the
order within that path:
event_input path: last unuse path:
1. event_process_midi() snapshots 1. midisynth_unuse() starts
output_rfile.output. tearing down output_rfile.
2. dump_midi() reaches 2. snd_rawmidi_kernel_release()
snd_rawmidi_kernel_write() closes the output file.
before runtime is pinned. 3. close_substream() frees
3. The callback keeps using substream->runtime.

nvmet-tcp: check return value of nvmet_tcp_set_queue_sock
The return value of nvmet_tcp_set_queue_sock() is currently ignored in
nvmet_tcp_tls_handshake_done(). If it fails (e.g., due to the socket
not being in TCP_ESTABLISHED state), the socket callbacks will not be
properly set, leading to queue and socket leakage.
Fix this by capturing the return value and calling
nvmet_tcp_schedule_release_queue() on failure to ensure proper cleanup. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvme-multipath: fix flex array size in struct nvme_ns_head
struct nvme_ns_head contains a flexible array member, current_path[],
which is indexed using the NUMA node ID:
head->current_path[numa_node_id()]
The structure is currently allocated as:
size = sizeof(struct nvme_ns_head) +
(num_possible_nodes() * sizeof(struct nvme_ns *));
head = kzalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL);
This allocation assumes that NUMA node IDs are sequential and densely
packed from 0 .. num_possible_nodes() - 1. While this assumption holds
on many systems, it is not always true on some architectures such as
powerpc.
On some powerpc systems, NUMA node IDs can be sparse. For example:
NUMA:
NUMA node(s): 6
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 80-159
NUMA node8 CPU(s): 0-79
NUMA node252 CPU(s):
NUMA node253 CPU(s):
NUMA node254 CPU(s):
NUMA node255 CPU(s):
That is, the possible/online NUMA node IDs are: 0, 8, 252, 253, 254, 255
In this case: num_possible_nodes() = 6
So memory is allocated for only 6 entries in current_path[]. However,
the array is later indexed using the actual NUMA node ID. As a result,
accesses such as:
head->current_path[8] or
head->current_path[252]
goes out of bounds, leading to the following KASAN splat:

Fix this by allocating the flexible array using nr_node_ids instead
of num_possible_nodes(). Since nr_node_ids represents the maximum
possible NUMA node IDs, indexing current_path[] using numa_node_id()
becomes safe even on systems with sparse node IDs. |

nvme-pci: fix out-of-bounds access in nvme_setup_descriptor_pools
nvme_setup_descriptor_pools() indexes dev->descriptor_pools[] using the
numa_node forwarded from hctx->numa_node by its single caller,
nvme_init_hctx_common(). On a non-NUMA kernel hctx->numa_node is
NUMA_NO_NODE (-1). Because the parameter was declared 'unsigned', the
value becomes UINT_MAX and the index walks off the array (sized to
nr_node_ids), faulting during nvme_alloc_ns() and leaving the namespace
without a /dev node.

changed iommu_map_sgtable() to return an ssize_t and negative values

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/rxe: Fix TOCTOU heap overflow in get_srq_wqe
get_srq_wqe() reads wqe->dma.num_sge from the shared receive queue
buffer, which is mapped into userspace. It validates num_sge against
max_sge, but then re-reads the same field to calculate the memcpy
size. A concurrent userspace thread can modify num_sge between
validation and use, causing a heap buffer overflow when copying the
WQE into qp->resp.srq_wqe.
Read num_sge into a local variable and use it for both the bounds
check and the size calculation. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/rxe: Copy WQE to local buffer in non-SRQ receive path
For non-SRQ QPs, the responder reads WQE fields directly from the
shared queue buffer mapped into userspace. This allows a malicious
user to modify fields like num_sge or sge entries while the kernel
is processing the WQE, leading to out-of-bounds reads in
rxe_resp_check_length() and copy_data().
Introduce get_recv_wqe() that validates num_sge and copies the WQE
to a kernel-local buffer before processing, matching the approach
already used for SRQ WQEs in get_srq_wqe(). The srq_wqe buffer is
reused since SRQ and non-SRQ paths are mutually exclusive per QP. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md/raid10: reset read_slot when reusing r10bio for discard
put_all_bios() always drops devs[i].bio, but it only drops
devs[i].repl_bio when r10_bio->read_slot < 0. If discard reuses an
r10bio that was previously used for a read, read_slot can still be
non-negative, and discard cleanup can skip bio_put() on repl_bio.
Reset read_slot to -1 when preparing an r10bio for discard so the
replacement bio is always released correctly. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md/raid1,raid10: fix error-path detection with md_cloned_bio()
Detect the error path using md_cloned_bio() instead of relying
on r1_bio in raid1 or r10_bio->read_slot in raid10, which may be
NULL or -1 after splitting and resubmitting a failed bio.
As a result, the error path may not be recognized and memory
allocations can incorrectly use GFP_NOIO instead of
(GFP_NOIO | __GFP_HIGH), which can lead to a deadlock under
memory pressure. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: fix BPF_PROG_QUERY OOB write and cgroup backward compat
BPF_PROG_QUERY writes back the 'query.revision' field unconditionally to
userspace. If userspace passes a smaller 'bpf_attr' structure (e.g. 40
bytes, which was the layout before the addition of 'query.revision'),
the kernel performs an out-of-bounds write.
Fix this by propagating the user-provided attribute size 'uattr_size'
down to the cgroup query handlers, and conditionally skipping writing
the revision field to userspace when the provided buffer size is
insufficient.
query.revision in bpf_mprog_query is structurally identical to the
cgroup case: a late tail field, written unconditionally.
But the backward-compat hazard is not the same.
The min-historical-size test is per command, and bpf_mprog_query only
serves attach types that were born with revision in the struct:
- tcx_prog_query -> BPF_TCX_INGRESS/EGRESS
- netkit_prog_query -> BPF_NETKIT_PRIMARY/PEER
tcx, netkit, the revision field, and bpf_mprog_query itself all landed in
the same v6.6 merge window (053c8e1f235d added the mprog query API +
revision; tcx in e420bed02507, netkit in 35dfaad7188c). There has never
been a tcx/netkit BPF_PROG_QUERY userspace that doesn't know about
revision. So for these commands the minimum legitimate struct already
covers offset 56-64 — no old binary can be broken here.
Contrast with cgroup: BPF_PROG_QUERY on cgroup attach types shipped in
2017; revision write-back was bolted on years later (120933984460). That
path has a real population of pre-revision callers. |

wifi: ath12k: fix inconsistent arvif state in vdev_create error paths
ath12k_mac_vdev_create() has three error path issues that leave arvif
in an inconsistent state:
1. When ath12k_wmi_vdev_create() fails, the function returns directly
without clearing arvif->ar, which was already set before the WMI
call. Subsequent code checking arvif->ar to determine vdev readiness
will see a non-NULL value despite no vdev existing in firmware.
2. When ath12k_wmi_send_peer_delete_cmd() fails in err_peer_del, the
code jumped to err: skipping the DP peer cleanup and vdev rollback,
leaving num_created_vdevs, vdev maps and arvif list membership live.
3. When ath12k_wait_for_peer_delete_done() fails, the code jumped to
err_vdev_del: skipping the DP peer cleanup.
Fix by changing the ath12k_wmi_vdev_create() failure to goto err instead
of returning directly, routing both err_peer_del failure paths through
err_dp_peer_del: for proper DP peer and vdev rollback, and consolidating
the arvif state cleanup at err:.

nvdimm/btt: Handle preemption in BTT lane acquisition
BTT lanes serialize access to per-lane metadata and workspace state
during BTT I/O. The btt-check unit test reports data mismatches during
BTT writes due to a race in lane acquisition that can lead to silent
data corruption.
The existing lane model uses a spinlock together with a per-CPU
recursion count. That recursion model stopped being valid after BTT
lanes became preemptible: another task can run on the same CPU,
observe a non-zero recursion count, bypass locking, and use the same
lane concurrently.
BTT lanes are also held across arena_write_bytes() calls. That path
reaches nsio_rw_bytes(), which flushes writes with nvdimm_flush().
Some provider flush callbacks can sleep, making a spinlock the wrong
primitive for the lane lifetime.
Replace the spinlock-based recursion model with a dynamically
allocated per-lane mutex array and take the lane lock
unconditionally.
Add might_sleep() to catch any future atomic-context caller.
Found with the ndctl unit test btt-check.sh. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Reject exclusive maps as inner maps in map-in-map
An exclusive map (created with excl_prog_hash) is bound to a single
program by hash: check_map_prog_compatibility() refuses to load any
program whose digest does not match map->excl_prog_sha. That check
only runs for maps a program references directly, i.e. its used_maps.
A map reached at runtime through a map-of-maps is never in used_maps,
and bpf_map_meta_equal() does not consider excl_prog_sha, so an
exclusive map can be inserted into a non-exclusive outer map and
then looked up and mutated by an unrelated program, bypassing the
exclusivity guarantee.
For the signed loader this defeats the metadata map exclusivity check
added in the signed loader: the cached map->sha[] is validated against
the signed hash while another program on a hostile host rewrites the
frozen map's contents through the outer map. |

bpf: fix UAF by restoring RCU-delayed inode freeing in bpffs
commit 4f375ade6aa9 ("bpf: Avoid RCU context warning when unpinning
htab with internal structs") moved inode cleanup from ->free_inode()
into ->destroy_inode() to avoid sleeping in RCU context when calling
bpf_any_put(). However this removed the RCU delay on freeing the
inode itself and the cached symlink body (i_link), both of which
can be accessed by RCU pathwalk (pick_link, may_lookup etc.).
This causes a use-after-free when a concurrent unlinkat() drops the
last inode reference and destroy_inode() frees the inode immediately,
while another task is still walking the path in RCU mode and reads
inode->i_opflags (offset +2) inside current_time() -> is_mgtime().
KASAN reports:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in is_mgtime include/linux/fs.h:2313
Read of size 2 at addr ffff8880407e4282 (offset +2 = i_opflags)
The rules (per Al Viro):
->destroy_inode() called immediately, can sleep, use for blocking
cleanup e.g. bpf_any_put()
->free_inode() called after RCU grace period, use for freeing
inode and anything RCU-accessible e.g. i_link
Fix: split the two concerns properly:
- keep bpf_any_put() in bpf_destroy_inode() since it is blocking
and needs to run promptly
- introduce bpf_free_inode() to handle kfree(i_link) and
free_inode_nonrcu() with proper RCU delay, preventing the UAF |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
configfs_lookup(): don't leave ->s_dentry dangling on failure
Normally ->s_dentry is cleared when dentry it's pointing to becomes
negative (on eviction, realistically). However, that only happens
if dentry gets to be positive in the first place; in case of inode
allocation failure dentry never becomes positive, so ->d_iput()
is not called at all.
We do part of what normally would've been done by configfs_d_iput()
(dropping the reference to configfs_dirent) manually, but we do
not clear ->s_dentry there. Sloppy as it is, it does not matter in
case of configfs_create_{dir,link}() - there configfs_dirent does
not survive dropping the sole reference to it.
However, for configfs_lookup() it *does* survive, with a dangling
pointer to soon to be freed dentry sitting it its ->s_dentry.
Subsequent getdents(2) in that directory will end up dereferencing
that pointer in order to pick the inode number. Use after free...
This is the minimal fix; the right approach is to set the linkage
between dentry and configfs_dirent only after we know that we have
an inode, but that takes more surgery and the bug had been there
since 2006, so... |

drm/amdgpu: fix KASAN slab-out-of-bounds in amdgpu_coredump ring dump
The ring content dump in amdgpu_coredump() uses two separate loops over
adev->rings[]: the first counts rings with unsignalled fences to size
the allocation, and the second copies ring data into the allocated
buffers.
Both loops use the same condition to skip rings:
atomic_read(&ring->fence_drv.last_seq) == ring->fence_drv.sync_seq
Because last_seq is an atomic that is updated concurrently by the fence
signalling path, additional rings may appear unsignalled in the second
loop that were signalled during the first. When this happens, idx
exceeds the allocated ring_count and the store to coredump->rings[idx]
writes past the end of the kcalloc-ed buffer.
This was found during IGT stressful test amd_queue_reset which
triggers random GPU resets. The OVERSIZE subtest
(CMD_STREAM_EXEC_INVALID_PACKET_LENGTH_OVERSIZE on GFX ring) provokes
a ring timeout and subsequent coredump, which hits the race between
the counting and copying loops. The failure is non-deterministic and
depends on fence signalling timing during the reset.

incoming packet. If not, the driver re-enables notifications with
available entries still in the ring. The incorrect return value from
vhost_get_avail_idx propagates through vhost_enable_notify and causes
the host to livelock if the guest is not making progress, as vhost will
immediately disable notifications and retry using the available entries.
This goes back to commit d3bb267bbdcb ("vhost: cache avail index in
vhost_enable_notify()") which changed vhost_enable_notify() to compare
the freshly read avail index against vq->last_avail_idx instead of the
previously cached vq->avail_idx. Commit 7ad472397667 ("vhost: move
smp_rmb() into vhost_get_avail_idx()") then carried over the same
comparison when refactoring vhost_enable_notify() to call the unified
vhost_get_avail_idx().
The obvious fix is to make vhost_get_avail_idx do what the comment
says it does and report whether new entries have been added. |

iommu/vt-d: Fix RB-tree corruption in probe error path
The info->node RB-tree member is zero-initialized via kzalloc. If
a device does not support ATS, the device_rbtree_insert() call is
skipped. If a subsequent probe step fails, the error path jumps to
device_rbtree_remove(), which misinterprets the zeroed node as
a tree root and corrupts the device RB-tree.
Fix this by explicitly initializing the RB-node as empty using
RB_CLEAR_NODE() during initialization and guarding the removal with
RB_EMPTY_NODE(). |
