| Early versions of Operator-SDK provided an insecure method to allow operator containers to run in environments that used a random UID. Operator-SDK before 0.15.2 provided a script, user_setup, which modifies the permissions of the /etc/passwd file to 664 during build time. Developers who used Operator-SDK before 0.15.2 to scaffold their operator may still be impacted by this if the insecure user_setup script is still being used to build new container images.
In affected images, the /etc/passwd file is created during build time with group-writable permissions and a group ownership of root (gid=0). An attacker who can execute commands within an affected container, even as a non-root user, may be able to leverage their membership in the root group to modify the /etc/passwd file. This could allow the attacker to add a new user with any arbitrary UID, including UID 0, leading to full root privileges within the container. |

ice: Fix PTP NULL pointer dereference during VSI rebuild
Fix race condition where PTP periodic work runs while VSI is being
rebuilt, accessing NULL vsi->rx_rings.
The sequence was:
1. ice_ptp_prepare_for_reset() cancels PTP work
2. ice_ptp_rebuild() immediately queues PTP work
3. VSI rebuild happens AFTER ice_ptp_rebuild()
4. PTP work runs and accesses NULL vsi->rx_rings
Fix: Keep PTP work cancelled during rebuild, only queue it after
VSI rebuild completes in ice_rebuild().
Added ice_ptp_queue_work() helper function to encapsulate the logic
for queuing PTP work, ensuring it's only queued when PTP is supported
and the state is ICE_PTP_READY.

macvlan: fix error recovery in macvlan_common_newlink()
valis provided a nice repro to crash the kernel:
ip link add p1 type veth peer p2
ip link set address 00:00:00:00:00:20 dev p1
ip link set up dev p1
ip link set up dev p2
ip link add mv0 link p2 type macvlan mode source
ip link add invalid% link p2 type macvlan mode source macaddr add 00:00:00:00:00:20
ping -c1 -I p1 1.2.3.4
He also gave a very detailed analysis:
<quote valis>
The issue is triggered when a new macvlan link is created with
MACVLAN_MODE_SOURCE mode and MACVLAN_MACADDR_ADD (or
MACVLAN_MACADDR_SET) parameter, lower device already has a macvlan
port and register_netdevice() called from macvlan_common_newlink()
fails (e.g. because of the invalid link name).
In this case macvlan_hash_add_source is called from
macvlan_change_sources() / macvlan_common_newlink():
This adds a reference to vlan to the port's vlan_source_hash using
macvlan_source_entry.
vlan is a pointer to the priv data of the link that is being created.
When register_netdevice() fails, the error is returned from
macvlan_newlink() to rtnl_newlink_create():
if (ops->newlink)
err = ops->newlink(dev, ¶ms, extack);
else
err = register_netdevice(dev);
if (err < 0) {
free_netdev(dev);
goto out;
}
and free_netdev() is called, causing a kvfree() on the struct
net_device that is still referenced in the source entry attached to
the lower device's macvlan port.
Now all packets sent on the macvlan port with a matching source mac
address will trigger a use-after-free in macvlan_forward_source().
</quote valis>
With all that, my fix is to make sure we call macvlan_flush_sources()
regardless of @create value whenever "goto destroy_macvlan_port;"
path is taken.
Many thanks to valis for following up on this issue. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: Prevent excessive number of frames
In this case, the user constructed the parameters with maxpacksize 40
for rate 22050 / pps 1000, and packsize[0] 22 packsize[1] 23. The buffer
size for each data URB is maxpacksize * packets, which in this example
is 40 * 6 = 240; When the user performs a write operation to send audio
data into the ALSA PCM playback stream, the calculated number of frames
is packsize[0] * packets = 264, which exceeds the allocated URB buffer
size, triggering the out-of-bounds (OOB) issue reported by syzbot [1].
Added a check for the number of single data URB frames when calculating
the number of frames to prevent [1].

spi: tegra210-quad: Protect curr_xfer check in IRQ handler
Now that all other accesses to curr_xfer are done under the lock,
protect the curr_xfer NULL check in tegra_qspi_isr_thread() with the
spinlock. Without this protection, the following race can occur:
CPU0 (ISR thread) CPU1 (timeout path)
---------------- -------------------
if (!tqspi->curr_xfer)
// sees non-NULL
spin_lock()
tqspi->curr_xfer = NULL
spin_unlock()
handle_*_xfer()
spin_lock()
t = tqspi->curr_xfer // NULL!
... t->len ... // NULL dereference!
With this patch, all curr_xfer accesses are now properly synchronized.
Although all accesses to curr_xfer are done under the lock, in
tegra_qspi_isr_thread() it checks for NULL, releases the lock and
reacquires it later in handle_cpu_based_xfer()/handle_dma_based_xfer().
There is a potential for an update in between, which could cause a NULL
pointer dereference.
To handle this, add a NULL check inside the handlers after acquiring
the lock. This ensures that if the timeout path has already cleared
curr_xfer, the handler will safely return without dereferencing the
NULL pointer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dpaa2-switch: prevent ZERO_SIZE_PTR dereference when num_ifs is zero
The driver allocates arrays for ports, FDBs, and filter blocks using
kcalloc() with ethsw->sw_attr.num_ifs as the element count. When the
device reports zero interfaces (either due to hardware configuration
or firmware issues), kcalloc(0, ...) returns ZERO_SIZE_PTR (0x10)
instead of NULL.
Later in dpaa2_switch_probe(), the NAPI initialization unconditionally
accesses ethsw->ports[0]->netdev, which attempts to dereference
ZERO_SIZE_PTR (address 0x10), resulting in a kernel panic.
Add a check to ensure num_ifs is greater than zero after retrieving
device attributes. This prevents the zero-sized allocations and
subsequent invalid pointer dereference. |

This trace occurs because vlan_for_each() is called within
cpsw_ndo_set_rx_mode(), which expects the RTNL lock to be held.
Since modifying vlan_for_each() to operate without the RTNL lock is not
straightforward, and because ndo_set_rx_mode() is invoked both with and
without the RTNL lock across different code paths, simply adding
rtnl_lock() in cpsw_ndo_set_rx_mode() is not a viable solution.
To resolve this issue, we opt to execute the actual processing within
a work queue, following the approach used by the icssg-prueth driver. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: tegra210-quad: Protect curr_xfer in tegra_qspi_combined_seq_xfer
The curr_xfer field is read by the IRQ handler without holding the lock
to check if a transfer is in progress. When clearing curr_xfer in the
combined sequence transfer loop, protect it with the spinlock to prevent
a race with the interrupt handler.
Protect the curr_xfer clearing at the exit path of
tegra_qspi_combined_seq_xfer() with the spinlock to prevent a race
with the interrupt handler that reads this field.
Without this protection, the IRQ handler could read a partially updated
curr_xfer value, leading to NULL pointer dereference or use-after-free. |

ceph: fix oops due to invalid pointer for kfree() in parse_longname()
This fixes a kernel oops when reading ceph snapshot directories (.snap),
for example by simply running `ls /mnt/my_ceph/.snap`.
The variable str is guarded by __free(kfree), but advanced by one for
skipping the initial '_' in snapshot names. Thus, kfree() is called
with an invalid pointer. This patch removes the need for advancing the
pointer so kfree() is called with correct memory pointer.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create snapshots on a cephfs volume (I've 63 snaps in my testcase)
2. Add cephfs mount to fstab
$ echo "samba-fileserver@.files=/volumes/datapool/stuff/3461082b-ecc9-4e82-8549-3fd2590d3fb6 /mnt/test/stuff ceph acl,noatime,_netdev 0 0" >> /etc/fstab
3. Reboot the system
$ systemctl reboot
4. Check if it's really mounted
$ mount | grep stuff
5. List snapshots (expected 63 snapshots on my system)
$ ls /mnt/test/stuff/.snap
Now ls hangs forever and the kernel log shows the oops. |

ipv6: Fix ECMP sibling count mismatch when clearing RTF_ADDRCONF
syzbot reported a kernel BUG in fib6_add_rt2node() when adding an IPv6
route. [0]
Commit f72514b3c569 ("ipv6: clear RA flags when adding a static
route") introduced logic to clear RTF_ADDRCONF from existing routes
when a static route with the same nexthop is added. However, this
causes a problem when the existing route has a gateway.
When RTF_ADDRCONF is cleared from a route that has a gateway, that
route becomes eligible for ECMP, i.e. rt6_qualify_for_ecmp() returns
true. The issue is that this route was never added to the
fib6_siblings list.
This leads to a mismatch between the following counts:
- The sibling count computed by iterating fib6_next chain, which
includes the newly ECMP-eligible route
- The actual siblings in fib6_siblings list, which does not include
that route
When a subsequent ECMP route is added, fib6_add_rt2node() hits
BUG_ON(sibling->fib6_nsiblings != rt->fib6_nsiblings) because the
counts don't match.
Fix this by only clearing RTF_ADDRCONF when the existing route does
not have a gateway. Routes without a gateway cannot qualify for ECMP
anyway (rt6_qualify_for_ecmp() requires fib_nh_gw_family), so clearing
RTF_ADDRCONF on them is safe and matches the original intent of the
commit.

To make this safe, we need to grab file refcount while VMA is still locked, but
other than that everything is pretty straightforward. Internal build_id_parse()
API assumes VMA is passed, but it only needs the underlying file reference, so
just add another variant build_id_parse_file() that expects file passed
directly.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: Don't clobber irqfd routing type when deassigning irqfd
When deassigning a KVM_IRQFD, don't clobber the irqfd's copy of the IRQ's
routing entry as doing so breaks kvm_arch_irq_bypass_del_producer() on x86
and arm64, which explicitly look for KVM_IRQ_ROUTING_MSI. Instead, to
handle a concurrent routing update, verify that the irqfd is still active
before consuming the routing information. As evidenced by the x86 and
arm64 bugs, and another bug in kvm_arch_update_irqfd_routing() (see below),
clobbering the entry type without notifying arch code is surprising and
error prone.
As a bonus, checking that the irqfd is active provides a convenient
location for documenting _why_ KVM must not consume the routing entry for
an irqfd that is in the process of being deassigned: once the irqfd is
deleted from the list (which happens *before* the eventfd is detached), it
will no longer receive updates via kvm_irq_routing_update(), and so KVM
could deliver an event using stale routing information (relative to
KVM_SET_GSI_ROUTING returning to userspace).
As an even better bonus, explicitly checking for the irqfd being active
fixes a similar bug to the one the clobbering is trying to prevent: if an
irqfd is deactivated, and then its routing is changed,
kvm_irq_routing_update() won't invoke kvm_arch_update_irqfd_routing()
(because the irqfd isn't in the list). And so if the irqfd is in bypass
mode, IRQs will continue to be posted using the old routing information.
As for kvm_arch_irq_bypass_del_producer(), clobbering the routing type
results in KVM incorrectly keeping the IRQ in bypass mode, which is
especially problematic on AMD as KVM tracks IRQs that are being posted to
a vCPU in a list whose lifetime is tied to the irqfd.
Without the help of KASAN to detect use-after-free, the most common
sympton on AMD is a NULL pointer deref in amd_iommu_update_ga() due to
the memory for irqfd structure being re-allocated and zeroed, resulting
in irqfd->irq_bypass_data being NULL when read by
avic_update_iommu_vcpu_affinity():

The issue occurs because a pool can still be held by a caller after its
associated memory region is unregistered. The current implementation frees
the pool even if users still hold references to it (e.g., before uncharge
operations complete).
This patch adds a reference counter to each pool, ensuring that a pool is
only freed when its reference count drops to zero. |

rust_binder: correctly handle FDA objects of length zero
Fix a bug where an empty FDA (fd array) object with 0 fds would cause an
out-of-bounds error. The previous implementation used `skip == 0` to
mean "this is a pointer fixup", but 0 is also the correct skip length
for an empty FDA. If the FDA is at the end of the buffer, then this
results in an attempt to write 8-bytes out of bounds. This is caught and
results in an EINVAL error being returned to userspace.
The pattern of using `skip == 0` as a special value originates from the
C-implementation of Binder. As part of fixing this bug, this pattern is
replaced with a Rust enum.
I considered the alternate option of not pushing a fixup when the length
is zero, but I think it's cleaner to just get rid of the zero-is-special
stuff.
The root cause of this bug was diagnosed by Gemini CLI on first try. I
used the following prompt:
> There appears to be a bug in @drivers/android/binder/thread.rs where
> the Fixups oob bug is triggered with 316 304 316 324. This implies
> that we somehow ended up with a fixup where buffer A has a pointer to
> buffer B, but the pointer is located at an index in buffer A that is
> out of bounds. Please investigate the code to find the bug. You may
> compare with @drivers/android/binder.c that implements this correctly. |

scsi: target: iscsi: Fix use-after-free in iscsit_dec_session_usage_count()
In iscsit_dec_session_usage_count(), the function calls complete() while
holding the sess->session_usage_lock. Similar to the connection usage count
logic, the waiter signaled by complete() (e.g., in the session release
path) may wake up and free the iscsit_session structure immediately.
This creates a race condition where the current thread may attempt to
execute spin_unlock_bh() on a session structure that has already been
deallocated, resulting in a KASAN slab-use-after-free.
To resolve this, release the session_usage_lock before calling complete()
to ensure all dereferences of the sess pointer are finished before the
waiter is allowed to proceed with deallocation. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
linkwatch: use __dev_put() in callers to prevent UAF
After linkwatch_do_dev() calls __dev_put() to release the linkwatch
reference, the device refcount may drop to 1. At this point,
netdev_run_todo() can proceed (since linkwatch_sync_dev() sees an
empty list and returns without blocking), wait for the refcount to
become 1 via netdev_wait_allrefs_any(), and then free the device
via kobject_put().
This creates a use-after-free when __linkwatch_run_queue() tries to
call netdev_unlock_ops() on the already-freed device.
Note that adding netdev_lock_ops()/netdev_unlock_ops() pair in
netdev_run_todo() before kobject_put() would not work, because
netdev_lock_ops() is conditional - it only locks when
netdev_need_ops_lock() returns true. If the device doesn't require
ops_lock, linkwatch won't hold any lock, and netdev_run_todo()
acquiring the lock won't provide synchronization.
Fix this by moving __dev_put() from linkwatch_do_dev() to its
callers. The device reference logically pairs with de-listing the
device, so it's reasonable for the caller that did the de-listing
to release it. This allows placing __dev_put() after all device
accesses are complete, preventing UAF.
The bug can be reproduced by adding mdelay(2000) after
linkwatch_do_dev() in __linkwatch_run_queue(), then running:
ip tuntap add mode tun name tun_test
ip link set tun_test up
ip link set tun_test carrier off
ip link set tun_test carrier on
sleep 0.5
ip tuntap del mode tun name tun_test
