This happens due to the malformed report items sent by the emulated device
which results in a report, that has no fields, being added to the report list.
Due to this appleir_input_configured() is never called, hidinput_connect()
fails which results in the HID_CLAIMED_INPUT flag is not being set. However,
it does not make appleir_probe() fail and lets the event callback to be
called without the associated input device.
Thus, add a check for the HID_CLAIMED_INPUT flag and leave the event hook
early if the driver didn't claim any input_dev for some reason. Moreover,
some other hid drivers accessing input_dev in their event callbacks do have
similar checks, too.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix type confusion via race condition when using ipc_msg_send_request
req->handle is allocated using ksmbd_acquire_id(&ipc_ida), based on
ida_alloc. req->handle from ksmbd_ipc_login_request and
FSCTL_PIPE_TRANSCEIVE ioctl can be same and it could lead to type confusion
between messages, resulting in access to unexpected parts of memory after
an incorrect delivery. ksmbd check type of ipc response but missing add
continue to check next ipc reponse. |

It should be checked with flags of smb_lock, not flags.
It will cause bug-on trap from locks_free_lock in error handling
routine. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: aggregator: protect driver attr handlers against module unload
Both new_device_store and delete_device_store touch module global
resources (e.g. gpio_aggregator_lock). To prevent race conditions with
module unload, a reference needs to be held.
Add try_module_get() in these handlers.
For new_device_store, this eliminates what appears to be the most dangerous
scenario: if an id is allocated from gpio_aggregator_idr but
platform_device_register has not yet been called or completed, a concurrent
module unload could fail to unregister/delete the device, leaving behind a
dangling platform device/GPIO forwarder. This can result in various issues.
The following simple reproducer demonstrates these problems:
#!/bin/bash
while :; do
# note: whether 'gpiochip0 0' exists or not does not matter.
echo 'gpiochip0 0' > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/gpio-aggregator/new_device
done &
while :; do
modprobe gpio-aggregator

drm/amd/display: Fix null check for pipe_ctx->plane_state in resource_build_scaling_params
Null pointer dereference issue could occur when pipe_ctx->plane_state
is null. The fix adds a check to ensure 'pipe_ctx->plane_state' is not
null before accessing. This prevents a null pointer dereference.

mptcp: fix 'scheduling while atomic' in mptcp_pm_nl_append_new_local_addr
If multiple connection requests attempt to create an implicit mptcp
endpoint in parallel, more than one caller may end up in
mptcp_pm_nl_append_new_local_addr because none found the address in
local_addr_list during their call to mptcp_pm_nl_get_local_id. In this
case, the concurrent new_local_addr calls may delete the address entry
created by the previous caller. These deletes use synchronize_rcu, but
this is not permitted in some of the contexts where this function may be
called. During packet recv, the caller may be in a rcu read critical
section and have preemption disabled.

This problem seems particularly prevalent if the user advertises an
endpoint that has a different external vs internal address. In the case
where the external address is advertised and multiple connections
already exist, multiple subflow SYNs arrive in parallel which tends to
trigger the race during creation of the first local_addr_list entries
which have the internal address instead.
Fix by skipping the replacement of an existing implicit local address if
called via mptcp_pm_nl_get_local_id. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: intel-ish-hid: Fix use-after-free issue in ishtp_hid_remove()
The system can experience a random crash a few minutes after the driver is
removed. This issue occurs due to improper handling of memory freeing in
the ishtp_hid_remove() function.
The function currently frees the `driver_data` directly within the loop
that destroys the HID devices, which can lead to accessing freed memory.
Specifically, `hid_destroy_device()` uses `driver_data` when it calls
`hid_ishtp_set_feature()` to power off the sensor, so freeing
`driver_data` beforehand can result in accessing invalid memory.
This patch resolves the issue by storing the `driver_data` in a temporary
variable before calling `hid_destroy_device()`, and then freeing the
`driver_data` after the device is destroyed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: gso: fix ownership in __udp_gso_segment
In __udp_gso_segment the skb destructor is removed before segmenting the
skb but the socket reference is kept as-is. This is an issue if the
original skb is later orphaned as we can hit the following bug:
kernel BUG at ./include/linux/skbuff.h:3312! (skb_orphan)

net_rx_action+0x925/0xe50
The above can happen following a sequence of events when using
OpenVSwitch, when an OVS_ACTION_ATTR_USERSPACE action precedes an
OVS_ACTION_ATTR_OUTPUT action:
1. OVS_ACTION_ATTR_USERSPACE is handled (in do_execute_actions): the skb
goes through queue_gso_packets and then __udp_gso_segment, where its
destructor is removed.
2. The segments' data are copied and sent to userspace.
3. OVS_ACTION_ATTR_OUTPUT is handled (in do_execute_actions) and the
same original skb is sent to its path.
4. If it later hits skb_orphan, we hit the bug.
Fix this by also removing the reference to the socket in
__udp_gso_segment. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
llc: do not use skb_get() before dev_queue_xmit()
syzbot is able to crash hosts [1], using llc and devices
not supporting IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING.
In this case, e1000 driver calls eth_skb_pad(), while
the skb is shared.
Simply replace skb_get() by skb_clone() in net/llc/llc_s_ac.c
Note that e1000 driver might have an issue with pktgen,
because it does not clear IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING, this is an
orthogonal change.
We need to audit other skb_get() uses in net/llc.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ppp: Fix KMSAN uninit-value warning with bpf
Syzbot caught an "KMSAN: uninit-value" warning [1], which is caused by the
ppp driver not initializing a 2-byte header when using socket filter.
The following code can generate a PPP filter BPF program:
'''
struct bpf_program fp;
pcap_t *handle;
handle = pcap_open_dead(DLT_PPP_PPPD, 65535);
pcap_compile(handle, &fp, "ip and outbound", 0, 0);
bpf_dump(&fp, 1);
'''
Its output is:
'''
(000) ldh [2]
(001) jeq #0x21 jt 2 jf 5
(002) ldb [0]
(003) jeq #0x1 jt 4 jf 5
(004) ret #65535
(005) ret #0
'''
Wen can find similar code at the following link:
https://github.com/ppp-project/ppp/blob/master/pppd/options.c#L1680
The maintainer of this code repository is also the original maintainer
of the ppp driver.
As you can see the BPF program skips 2 bytes of data and then reads the
'Protocol' field to determine if it's an IP packet. Then it read the first
byte of the first 2 bytes to determine the direction.
The issue is that only the first byte indicating direction is initialized
in current ppp driver code while the second byte is not initialized.
For normal BPF programs generated by libpcap, uninitialized data won't be
used, so it's not a problem. However, for carefully crafted BPF programs,
such as those generated by syzkaller [2], which start reading from offset
0, the uninitialized data will be used and caught by KMSAN.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vlan: enforce underlying device type
Currently, VLAN devices can be created on top of non-ethernet devices.
Besides the fact that it doesn't make much sense, this also causes a
bug which leaks the address of a kernel function to usermode.
When creating a VLAN device, we initialize GARP (garp_init_applicant)
and MRP (mrp_init_applicant) for the underlying device.
As part of the initialization process, we add the multicast address of
each applicant to the underlying device, by calling dev_mc_add.
__dev_mc_add uses dev->addr_len to determine the length of the new
multicast address.
This causes an out-of-bounds read if dev->addr_len is greater than 6,
since the multicast addresses provided by GARP and MRP are only 6
bytes long.
This behaviour can be reproduced using the following commands:
ip tunnel add gretest mode ip6gre local ::1 remote ::2 dev lo
ip l set up dev gretest
ip link add link gretest name vlantest type vlan id 100
Then, the following command will display the address of garp_pdu_rcv:
ip maddr show | grep 01:80:c2:00:00:21
Fix the bug by enforcing the type of the underlying device during VLAN
device initialization. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched/fair: Fix potential memory corruption in child_cfs_rq_on_list
child_cfs_rq_on_list attempts to convert a 'prev' pointer to a cfs_rq.
This 'prev' pointer can originate from struct rq's leaf_cfs_rq_list,
making the conversion invalid and potentially leading to memory
corruption. Depending on the relative positions of leaf_cfs_rq_list and
the task group (tg) pointer within the struct, this can cause a memory
fault or access garbage data.
The issue arises in list_add_leaf_cfs_rq, where both
cfs_rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list and rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list are added to the same
leaf list. Also, rq->tmp_alone_branch can be set to rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list.
This adds a check `if (prev == &rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list)` after the main
conditional in child_cfs_rq_on_list. This ensures that the container_of
operation will convert a correct cfs_rq struct.
This check is sufficient because only cfs_rqs on the same CPU are added
to the list, so verifying the 'prev' pointer against the current rq's list
head is enough.
Fixes a potential memory corruption issue that due to current struct
layout might not be manifesting as a crash but could lead to unpredictable
behavior when the layout changes. |

Resources should be released only after all threads that utilize them
have been destroyed.
This commit ensures that resources are not released prematurely by waiting
for the associated workqueue to complete before deallocating them. |
