net/mlx5e: RX, Fix XDP multi-buf frag counting for striding RQ
XDP multi-buf programs can modify the layout of the XDP buffer when the
program calls bpf_xdp_pull_data() or bpf_xdp_adjust_tail(). The
referenced commit in the fixes tag corrected the assumption in the mlx5
driver that the XDP buffer layout doesn't change during a program
execution. However, this fix introduced another issue: the dropped
fragments still need to be counted on the driver side to avoid page
fragment reference counting issues.
The issue was discovered by the drivers/net/xdp.py selftest,
more specifically the test_xdp_native_tx_mb:
- The mlx5 driver allocates a page_pool page and initializes it with
a frag counter of 64 (pp_ref_count=64) and the internal frag counter
to 0.
- The test sends one packet with no payload.
- On RX (mlx5e_skb_from_cqe_mpwrq_nonlinear()), mlx5 configures the XDP
buffer with the packet data starting in the first fragment which is the
page mentioned above.
- The XDP program runs and calls bpf_xdp_pull_data() which moves the
header into the linear part of the XDP buffer. As the packet doesn't
contain more data, the program drops the tail fragment since it no
longer contains any payload (pp_ref_count=63).
- mlx5 device skips counting this fragment. Internal frag counter
remains 0.
- mlx5 releases all 64 fragments of the page but page pp_ref_count is
63 => negative reference counting error.
Resulting splat during the test:

The problem applies for XDP_PASS as well which is handled in a different
code path in the driver.
This patch fixes the issue by doing page frag counting on all the
original XDP buffer fragments for all relevant XDP actions (XDP_TX ,
XDP_REDIRECT and XDP_PASS). This is basically reverting to the original
counting before the commit in the fixes tag.
As frag_page is still pointing to the original tail, the nr_frags
parameter to xdp_update_skb_frags_info() needs to be calculated
in a different way to reflect the new nr_frags. |

net/mlx5e: RX, Fix XDP multi-buf frag counting for legacy RQ
XDP multi-buf programs can modify the layout of the XDP buffer when the
program calls bpf_xdp_pull_data() or bpf_xdp_adjust_tail(). The

Such issue can be observed with the
test_xdp_native_adjst_tail_shrnk_data selftest when using a payload of
3600 and shrinking by 256 bytes (an upcoming selftest patch): the last
fragment gets released by the XDP code but doesn't get tracked by the
driver. This results in a negative pp_ref_count during page release and
the following splat:

drm/amd/display: Fix NULL pointer dereference in dcn401_init_hw()
dcn401_init_hw() assumes that update_bw_bounding_box() is valid when
entering the update path. However, the existing condition:
((!fams2_enable && update_bw_bounding_box) || freq_changed)
does not guarantee this, as the freq_changed branch can evaluate to true
independently of the callback pointer.
This can result in calling update_bw_bounding_box() when it is NULL.
Fix this by separating the update condition from the pointer checks and
ensuring the callback, dc->clk_mgr, and bw_params are validated before
use.
Fixes the below:
../dc/hwss/dcn401/dcn401_hwseq.c:367 dcn401_init_hw() error: we previously assumed 'dc->res_pool->funcs->update_bw_bounding_box' could be null (see line 362)

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
most: core: fix leak on early registration failure
A recent commit fixed a resource leak on early registration failures but
for some reason left out the first error path which still leaks the
resources associated with the interface.
Fix up also the first error path so that the interface is always
released on errors. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
zram: set default primary compressor in zram_destroy_comps()
Patch series "zram: fix zram issues reported by sashiko".
Sashiko drove by and reported [1] a couple of zram issues:
a possible BUG_ON() in zlib code due to missing winbits range
validation and one possible NULL-ptr dereference in zcomp.
Both are low risk yet still worth fixing.
This patch (of 2):
zram_destroy_comps() resets all compressors and leaves them set to NULL,
including the primary one, which is invalid device state, as now
comp_algorithm_show()->strcmp() can be called on a NULL compressor. Set
default primary compressor in zram_destroy_comps(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: restore rq_status_counter to even on all nfsd_dispatch() exit paths
nfsd_dispatch() sets rq_status_counter to an odd value once a request has
been decoded, and back to an even value once it has been fully processed,
forming a seq-lock like protocol with the lockless reader in
nfsd_nl_rpc_status_get_dumpit().
Only the fully successful path restored the counter to even. The cache-hit
(RC_REPLY), drop (RC_DROPIT / RQ_DROPME) and encode-error paths all return
after the odd-valued store without ever bringing the counter back to even.
Once one of those paths is taken, rq_status_counter is left odd: the next
request's decode ORs in 1 (still odd) and only a subsequent successful
encode restores even. While stuck odd, the dumpit reader treats the rqstp
fields as stable and its retry check compares against the same unchanging
odd value, so it never detects concurrent mutation. This exposes actively
mutating fields (e.g. args->ops / args->opcnt during compound decode and
release) to the lockless reader, which can read past the end of the
8-element inline ops array.
Add a helper that advances the counter to the next even value and call it
on every return path that follows the odd-valued store. The decode-error
path is left untouched as it is reached before the counter is set odd. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix use-before-check of ReparseDataLength in reparse_buf_ptr()
reparse_buf_ptr() reads buf->ReparseDataLength before checking that
count covers the full fixed header:
buf = (struct reparse_data_buffer *)((u8 *)io + off);
len = sizeof(*buf); /* 8 bytes */
rdlen = le16_to_cpu(buf->ReparseDataLength); /* offset 4, 2 bytes */
if (count < len || count < rdlen + len) /* check comes after */
struct reparse_data_buffer has ReparseDataLength at offset 4. If a
server returns OutputCount < 6, the read at offset 4-5 reaches past
the end of the received data. The off+count bounds against iov_len
were already validated, but that does not protect against count being
smaller than sizeof(*buf).
Split the check: verify count >= sizeof(*buf) before reading
ReparseDataLength, then verify count covers the data region. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: universal-pidff: stop the device when force-feedback init fails
universal_pidff_probe() starts the device with hid_hw_start() and then, if
force-feedback initialisation fails, returns the error through a label that
only does "return error". The device is left started.
The HID core does not unwind on the driver's behalf. __hid_device_probe()
releases the devres group, closes the report and clears hdev->driver:
if (ret) {
devres_release_group(&hdev->dev, hdev->devres_group_id);
hid_close_report(hdev);
hdev->driver = NULL;
}
The hidraw character device that hid_hw_start() registered through
hid_connect() is allocated with kzalloc() and added with cdev_device_add(),
so it is not devres-managed and survives that. With hdev->driver NULL,
hid_device_remove() skips hid_hw_stop() as well, because it only unwinds
while a driver is still attached. The registration therefore outlives the
device on both paths.
Opening the surviving /dev/hidrawX writes into freed memory. KASAN reports
a use-after-free write from hidraw_open() -> hid_hw_open() -> the
transport's open callback, which takes a spinlock inside the freed object.
A descriptor that carries a PID usage page and no input reports is enough:
hidraw claims the device so hid_hw_start() succeeds, while hid->inputs
stays empty so force-feedback init fails. The other failure returns in
hid_pidff_init_with_quirks() - no output reports, an allocation failure,
pidff_init_fields(), pidff_check_autocenter(), an unusable effect count,
input_ff_create() - all reach the same label.
Stop the device on that path. hid-dr.c and hid-emsff.c, which start the
device with the same HID_CONNECT_DEFAULT & ~HID_CONNECT_FF mask, already do
this. The two earlier gotos must keep returning without hid_hw_stop(),
since neither has a started device, so give the path that fails after the
start its own label.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cpufreq: apple-soc: Fix OPP table cleanup
apple_soc_cpufreq_init() adds OPP tables from firmware, but
some failure paths do not remove them. The driver also uses
dev_pm_opp_remove_all_dynamic(), which is not the right cleanup
helper for OPP tables loaded from firmware.
Use the cpumask OPP helper after the policy CPU mask has been
populated. Pair it with the matching cpumask remove helper on
failure paths and in apple_soc_cpufreq_exit(). This also removes
the separate dev_pm_opp_set_sharing_cpus() call, as the cpumask
helper loads the DT OPP tables for all CPUs in the policy. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
jbd2: bound shrinker scans by examined checkpoint buffers
The jbd2 shrinker currently accounts only checkpoint buffers that it
successfully releases against nr_to_scan. Busy buffers therefore do not
consume the scan budget.
If a checkpoint transaction contains mostly busy buffers, the shrinker
can scan its entire checkpoint list while holding journal->j_list_lock.
Large checkpoint lists can result in excessive lock hold times and leave
other CPUs spinning on j_list_lock, causing soft lockups or RCU stalls.
Pass nr_to_scan into journal_shrink_one_cp_list() and decrement it for
every buffer examined, including busy buffers. Pass NULL from checkpoint
cleanup paths so their existing full-list behavior is preserved.
This restores the scan-budget semantics that existed before
journal_shrink_one_cp_list() was changed to always scan a complete
checkpoint list. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
jbd2: check need_resched() when skipping busy checkpoint buffers
journal_shrink_one_cp_list() skips busy checkpoint buffers when called
with JBD2_SHRINK_BUSY_SKIP. The continue statement on this path also
skips the need_resched() check at the end of the loop body.
Consequently, when a checkpoint list contains mostly busy buffers, the
shrinker can walk the entire list while holding journal->j_list_lock,
even when a reschedule has been requested. Large checkpoint lists under
memory pressure can therefore cause long lock hold times and leave other
CPUs spinning on j_list_lock, resulting in soft lockups or RCU stalls.
Route the busy-buffer path through the need_resched() check so that the
shrinker can release j_list_lock and reschedule promptly, restoring
parity with the clean-buffer path, which already checks need_resched().
This does not change which checkpoint buffers are eligible for removal. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
svcrdma: Clear sc_cm_id when ADDR_CHANGE replacement fails
When svc_rdma_listen_handler() handles RDMA_CM_EVENT_ADDR_CHANGE,
it creates a replacement listener cm_id and returns 1, telling
the CM core to destroy the old one. If the replacement allocation
fails, sc_cm_id still points at the old cm_id that the CM core is
about to destroy. Any subsequent dereference of sc_cm_id --
such as svc_rdma_detach()'s rdma_disconnect() call -- is a
use-after-free.
NULL sc_cm_id on the failure path and guard svc_rdma_detach()'s
rdma_disconnect() call against NULL so that the listener can
be torn down safely when the server shuts down. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
power: supply: qcom_battmgr: fix use-after-free
qcom_battmgr_pdr_notify() queues enable_work when the PMIC GLINK service
comes up, and the worker recovers battmgr through container_of() to issue
firmware requests. The PMIC GLINK client stays on the client list until
its devres release action runs, so a PDR notification can keep queueing
the work, and a pending or running worker can access battmgr after devres
frees it.
Make enable_work device-managed with devm_work_autocancel(), registered
before the PMIC GLINK client is allocated. The devres cleanup then
releases the client first, so no further notification can queue the work,
and cancels the work before battmgr is freed.
This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/sva: Set handle->dev before the SVA handle is visible
iommu_attach_device_pasid() installs the new SVA attach handle in the
group PASID lookup before iommu_sva_bind_device() returns. A concurrent
bind can therefore find and reuse the same handle after iommu_sva_lock is
dropped.
handle->dev was initialized after dropping iommu_sva_lock. This leaves a
window where a racing bind can return a handle whose dev pointer is still
NULL. A subsequent iommu_sva_unbind_device() can then dereference it via
handle->dev->iommu_group.
Initialize handle->dev before releasing iommu_sva_lock so any visible SVA
handle is fully initialized. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
platform/x86: ISST: Add a NULL check for sst_inst[]

loading by checking isst_common.sst_inst[]. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mt76: mt7996: bound the device EEPROM address before the EFUSE copy
mt7996_mcu_get_eeprom() derives the destination of the EFUSE/EXT block
copy from the address reported by the MCU response (event->addr, a
device-controlled __le32) and clamps only the copy length, never the
destination offset into dev->mt76.eeprom.data. A malicious or
malfunctioning device can report an arbitrary address and drive an
out-of-bounds write of up to MT7996_EXT_EEPROM_BLOCK_SIZE bytes past
eeprom.data.
Reject a response whose address would place the copy outside eeprom.data
before deriving the destination pointer. Devices that echo the requested
in-bounds offset are unaffected. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring: defer eventfd signaling when queued from a wakeup handler
io_req_local_work_add() signals the CQ ring eventfd inline when it is the
one to push the first entry onto ->work_list. For DEFER_TASKRUN rings that
add is frequently done from a waitqueue wakeup handler, where an
arbitrary waitqueue lock is held.
eventfd_signal_mask() only refuses to recurse when current->in_eventfd
is set, but that bit is set by eventfd_signal_mask() itself. If the wake
chain starts somewhere else, signal goes out inline and can feed back
into epoll.
Add IOU_F_TWQ_IN_WAKE, set it on the task_work add done from the three
waitqueue callbacks, and use it to force io_eventfd_signal() down the
existing call_rcu_hurry() deferral instead of signaling inline. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfs: release readahead folios on iterator preparation failure
netfs_prepare_read_iterator() batches readahead folios in put_batch so that
the folio references can be dropped after the I/O iterator has been
prepared.
If rolling_buffer_load_from_ra() fails after earlier folios have been
batched, the function returns immediately and leaves those references held.
Release the batch before returning the error. |

---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---
The ASSERT() itself is added by a later patch.
The crash is triggered with that new debug patch, and without this fix.
[CAUSE]
In the above case, the start 16826368 is properly 8K aligned, but the
end (16830463 + 1) is not 8K aligned.
Furthermore the mapping's minimal folio order is 0, not the expected 1
for 8K block size with 4K page size.
So this means some inodes do not have btrfs_set_inode_mapping_order()
called on it.
The missing btrfs_set_inode_mapping_order() call happens for cached
inodes, through the following events:
- btrfs_create_new_inode() called for inode X
Which properly sets minimal folio order for the VFS inode.
- btrfs_update_inode() called for inode X
Which calls btrfs_delayed_update_inode() to create a delayed_node
into root->delayed_nodes xarray.
- Drop cache/memory pressure, evicting in-memory inode X
Which evicted the inode X, but delayed_node is still in
root->delayed_nodes for future reuse.
- btrfs_iget() for inode X called again
btrfs_iget()
|- btrfs_iget_locked()
| |- iget5_locked_rcu()
| Which creates a new vfs_inode for btrfs, whose mapping still
| has the minimal order as 0.
|
|- btrfs_read_locked_inode()
|- btrfs_fill_inode()
| |- btrfs_get_delayed_node()
| Which found out the previous node, and use that delayed
| node to initialize the new inode.
|
|- filled = true;
|- if (filled) goto cache_index;
Which skips the btrfs_update_inode_mapping_flags() and
btrfs_set_inode_mapping_order() calls.
So the inode still has minimal folio order set as 0, not
the required 1.
Thus later page cache read will get a folio whose size is smaller than
block size, as the mapping has its minimal folio order set as 0 not 1,
then trigger the ASSERT().
[FIX]
Move the btrfs_update_inode_mapping_flags() and
btrfs_set_inode_mapping_order() calls under cache_index label,
so that the mapping flags and minimal folio order is always set
no matter if we have a cached inode. |
