| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fsnotify: clear PARENT_WATCHED flags lazily
In some setups directories can have many (usually negative) dentries.
Hence __fsnotify_update_child_dentry_flags() function can take a
significant amount of time. Since the bulk of this function happens
under inode->i_lock this causes a significant contention on the lock
when we remove the watch from the directory as the
__fsnotify_update_child_dentry_flags() call from fsnotify_recalc_mask()
races with __fsnotify_update_child_dentry_flags() calls from
__fsnotify_parent() happening on children. This can lead upto softlockup
reports reported by users.
Fix the problem by calling fsnotify_update_children_dentry_flags() to
set PARENT_WATCHED flags only when parent starts watching children.
When parent stops watching children, clear false positive PARENT_WATCHED
flags lazily in __fsnotify_parent() for each accessed child. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinmux: Use sequential access to access desc->pinmux data
When two client of the same gpio call pinctrl_select_state() for the
same functionality, we are seeing NULL pointer issue while accessing
desc->mux_owner.
Let's say two processes A, B executing in pin_request() for the same pin
and process A updates the desc->mux_usecount but not yet updated the
desc->mux_owner while process B see the desc->mux_usecount which got
updated by A path and further executes strcmp and while accessing
desc->mux_owner it crashes with NULL pointer.
Serialize the access to mux related setting with a mutex lock.
cpu0 (process A) cpu1(process B)
pinctrl_select_state() { pinctrl_select_state() {
pin_request() { pin_request() {
...
....
} else {
desc->mux_usecount++;
desc->mux_usecount && strcmp(desc->mux_owner, owner)) {
if (desc->mux_usecount > 1)
return 0;
desc->mux_owner = owner;
} } |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ELF: fix kernel.randomize_va_space double read
ELF loader uses "randomize_va_space" twice. It is sysctl and can change
at any moment, so 2 loads could see 2 different values in theory with
unpredictable consequences.
Issue exactly one load for consistent value across one exec. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pci/hotplug/pnv_php: Fix hotplug driver crash on Powernv
The hotplug driver for powerpc (pci/hotplug/pnv_php.c) causes a kernel
crash when we try to hot-unplug/disable the PCIe switch/bridge from
the PHB.
The crash occurs because although the MSI data structure has been
released during disable/hot-unplug path and it has been assigned
with NULL, still during unregistration the code was again trying to
explicitly disable the MSI which causes the NULL pointer dereference and
kernel crash.
The patch fixes the check during unregistration path to prevent invoking
pci_disable_msi/msix() since its data structure is already freed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (adc128d818) Fix underflows seen when writing limit attributes
DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST() after kstrtol() results in an underflow if a large
negative number such as -9223372036854775808 is provided by the user.
Fix it by reordering clamp_val() and DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST() operations. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: uinput - reject requests with unreasonable number of slots
When exercising uinput interface syzkaller may try setting up device
with a really large number of slots, which causes memory allocation
failure in input_mt_init_slots(). While this allocation failure is
handled properly and request is rejected, it results in syzkaller
reports. Additionally, such request may put undue burden on the
system which will try to free a lot of memory for a bogus request.
Fix it by limiting allowed number of slots to 100. This can easily
be extended if we see devices that can track more than 100 contacts. |

usb: dwc3: core: Prevent USB core invalid event buffer address access
This commit addresses an issue where the USB core could access an
invalid event buffer address during runtime suspend, potentially causing
SMMU faults and other memory issues in Exynos platforms. The problem
arises from the following sequence.
1. In dwc3_gadget_suspend, there is a chance of a timeout when
moving the USB core to the halt state after clearing the
run/stop bit by software.
2. In dwc3_core_exit, the event buffer is cleared regardless of
the USB core's status, which may lead to an SMMU faults and
other memory issues. if the USB core tries to access the event
buffer address.
To prevent this hardware quirk on Exynos platforms, this commit ensures
that the event buffer address is not cleared by software when the USB
core is active during runtime suspend by checking its status before
clearing the buffer address. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: prevent potential speculation leaks in gpio_device_get_desc()
Userspace may trigger a speculative read of an address outside the gpio
descriptor array.
Users can do that by calling gpio_ioctl() with an offset out of range.
Offset is copied from user and then used as an array index to get
the gpio descriptor without sanitization in gpio_device_get_desc().
This change ensures that the offset is sanitized by using
array_index_nospec() to mitigate any possibility of speculative
information leaks.

md/raid5: avoid BUG_ON() while continue reshape after reassembling
Currently, mdadm support --revert-reshape to abort the reshape while
reassembling, as the test 07revert-grow. However, following BUG_ON()
can be triggerred by the test:
kernel BUG at drivers/md/raid5.c:6278!

irq event stamp: 158985
CPU: 6 PID: 891 Comm: md0_reshape Not tainted 6.9.0-03335-g7592a0b0049a #94

Root cause is that --revert-reshape update the raid_disks from 5 to 4,
while reshape position is still set, and after reassembling the array,
reshape position will be read from super block, then during reshape the
checking of 'writepos' that is caculated by old reshape position will
fail.
Fix this panic the easy way first, by converting the BUG_ON() to
WARN_ON(), and stop the reshape if checkings fail.
Noted that mdadm must fix --revert-shape as well, and probably md/raid
should enhance metadata validation as well, however this means
reassemble will fail and there must be user tools to fix the wrong
metadata. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
exec: Fix ToCToU between perm check and set-uid/gid usage
When opening a file for exec via do_filp_open(), permission checking is
done against the file's metadata at that moment, and on success, a file
pointer is passed back. Much later in the execve() code path, the file
metadata (specifically mode, uid, and gid) is used to determine if/how
to set the uid and gid. However, those values may have changed since the
permissions check, meaning the execution may gain unintended privileges.
For example, if a file could change permissions from executable and not
set-id:
---------x 1 root root 16048 Aug 7 13:16 target
to set-id and non-executable:
---S------ 1 root root 16048 Aug 7 13:16 target
it is possible to gain root privileges when execution should have been
disallowed.
While this race condition is rare in real-world scenarios, it has been
observed (and proven exploitable) when package managers are updating
the setuid bits of installed programs. Such files start with being
world-executable but then are adjusted to be group-exec with a set-uid
bit. For example, "chmod o-x,u+s target" makes "target" executable only
by uid "root" and gid "cdrom", while also becoming setuid-root:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root cdrom 16048 Aug 7 13:16 target
becomes:
-rwsr-xr-- 1 root cdrom 16048 Aug 7 13:16 target
But racing the chmod means users without group "cdrom" membership can
get the permission to execute "target" just before the chmod, and when
the chmod finishes, the exec reaches brpm_fill_uid(), and performs the
setuid to root, violating the expressed authorization of "only cdrom
group members can setuid to root".
Re-check that we still have execute permissions in case the metadata
has changed. It would be better to keep a copy from the perm-check time,
but until we can do that refactoring, the least-bad option is to do a
full inode_permission() call (under inode lock). It is understood that
this is safe against dead-locks, but hardly optimal. |

both callers have verified that fd is not greater than ->max_fds;
however, misprediction might end up with

why it's wrong in close_fd()/file_close_fd_locked(); the same
solution applies - array_index_nospec(fd, fdt->max_fds) could differ
from fd only in case of speculative execution on mispredicted path. |

mm: avoid overflows in dirty throttling logic
The dirty throttling logic is interspersed with assumptions that dirty
limits in PAGE_SIZE units fit into 32-bit (so that various multiplications
fit into 64-bits). If limits end up being larger, we will hit overflows,
possible divisions by 0 etc. Fix these problems by never allowing so
large dirty limits as they have dubious practical value anyway. For
dirty_bytes / dirty_background_bytes interfaces we can just refuse to set
so large limits. For dirty_ratio / dirty_background_ratio it isn't so
simple as the dirty limit is computed from the amount of available memory
which can change due to memory hotplug etc. So when converting dirty
limits from ratios to numbers of pages, we just don't allow the result to
exceed UINT_MAX.
This is root-only triggerable problem which occurs when the operator
sets dirty limits to >16 TB. |

net/iucv: Avoid explicit cpumask var allocation on stack
For CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y kernel, explicit allocation of cpumask
variable on stack is not recommended since it can cause potential stack

Instead, kernel code should always use *cpumask_var API(s) to allocate
cpumask var in config-neutral way, leaving allocation strategy to
