| A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's TUN/TAP functionality. This issue could allow a local user to bypass network filters and gain unauthorized access to some resources. The original patches fixing CVE-2023-1076 are incorrect or incomplete. The problem is that the following upstream commits - a096ccca6e50 ("tun: tun_chr_open(): correctly initialize socket uid"), - 66b2c338adce ("tap: tap_open(): correctly initialize socket uid"), pass "inode->i_uid" to sock_init_data_uid() as the last parameter and that turns out to not be accurate. |
| A race condition was found in the QXL driver in the Linux kernel. The qxl_mode_dumb_create() function dereferences the qobj returned by the qxl_gem_object_create_with_handle(), but the handle is the only one holding a reference to it. This flaw allows an attacker to guess the returned handle value and trigger a use-after-free issue, potentially leading to a denial of service or privilege escalation. |

mmc: sdhci-of-dwcmshc: Prevent illegal clock reduction in HS200/HS400 mode
When operating in HS200 or HS400 timing modes, reducing the clock frequency
below 52MHz will lead to link broken as the Rockchip DWC MSHC controller
requires maintaining a minimum clock of 52MHz in these modes.
Add a check to prevent illegal clock reduction through debugfs:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dpll: Prevent duplicate registrations
Modify the internal registration helpers dpll_xa_ref_{dpll,pin}_add()
to reject duplicate registration attempts.
Previously, if a caller attempted to register the same pin multiple
times (with the same ops, priv, and cookie) on the same device, the core
silently increments the reference count and return success. This behavior
is incorrect because if the caller makes these duplicate registrations
then for the first one dpll_pin_registration is allocated and for others
the associated dpll_pin_ref.refcount is incremented. During the first
unregistration the associated dpll_pin_registration is freed and for
others WARN is fired.
Fix this by updating the logic to return `-EEXIST` if a matching
registration is found to enforce a strict "register once" policy. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conncount: update last_gc only when GC has been performed
Currently last_gc is being updated everytime a new connection is
tracked, that means that it is updated even if a GC wasn't performed.
With a sufficiently high packet rate, it is possible to always bypass
the GC, causing the list to grow infinitely.
Update the last_gc value only when a GC has been actually performed. |

The issue is triggered when sctp_auth_asoc_init_active_key() fails in
sctp_sf_do_5_1C_ack() while processing an INIT_ACK. In this case, the
command sequence is currently:
- SCTP_CMD_PEER_INIT
- SCTP_CMD_TIMER_STOP (T1_INIT)
- SCTP_CMD_TIMER_START (T1_COOKIE)
- SCTP_CMD_NEW_STATE (COOKIE_ECHOED)
- SCTP_CMD_ASSOC_SHKEY
- SCTP_CMD_GEN_COOKIE_ECHO
If SCTP_CMD_ASSOC_SHKEY fails, asoc->shkey remains NULL, while
asoc->peer.auth_capable and asoc->peer.peer_chunks have already been set by
SCTP_CMD_PEER_INIT. This allows a DATA chunk with auth = 1 and shkey = NULL
to be queued by sctp_datamsg_from_user().
Since command interpretation stops on failure, no COOKIE_ECHO should been
sent via SCTP_CMD_GEN_COOKIE_ECHO. However, the T1_COOKIE timer has already
been started, and it may enqueue a COOKIE_ECHO into the outqueue later. As
a result, the DATA chunk can be transmitted together with the COOKIE_ECHO
in sctp_outq_flush_data(), leading to the observed issue.
Similar to the other places where it calls sctp_auth_asoc_init_active_key()
right after sctp_process_init(), this patch moves the SCTP_CMD_ASSOC_SHKEY
immediately after SCTP_CMD_PEER_INIT, before stopping T1_INIT and starting
T1_COOKIE. This ensures that if shared key generation fails, authenticated
DATA cannot be sent. It also allows the T1_INIT timer to retransmit INIT,
giving the client another chance to process INIT_ACK and retry key setup. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
of: unittest: Fix memory leak in unittest_data_add()
In unittest_data_add(), if of_resolve_phandles() fails, the allocated
unittest_data is not freed, leading to a memory leak.
Fix this by using scope-based cleanup helper __free(kfree) for automatic
resource cleanup. This ensures unittest_data is automatically freed when
it goes out of scope in error paths.
For the success path, use retain_and_null_ptr() to transfer ownership
of the memory to the device tree and prevent double freeing. |

drm/bridge: synopsys: dw-dp: fix error paths of dw_dp_bind
Fix several issues in dw_dp_bind() error handling:
1. Missing return after drm_bridge_attach() failure - the function
continued execution instead of returning an error.
2. Resource leak: drm_dp_aux_register() is not a devm function, so
drm_dp_aux_unregister() must be called on all error paths after
aux registration succeeds. This affects errors from:
- drm_bridge_attach()
- phy_init()
- devm_add_action_or_reset()
- platform_get_irq()
- devm_request_threaded_irq()
3. Bug fix: platform_get_irq() returns the IRQ number or a negative
error code, but the error path was returning ERR_PTR(ret) instead
of ERR_PTR(dp->irq).
Use a goto label for cleanup to ensure consistent error handling. |

drm/amdgpu: fix NULL pointer dereference in amdgpu_gmc_filter_faults_remove
On APUs such as Raven and Renoir (GC 9.1.0, 9.2.2, 9.3.0), the ih1 and
ih2 interrupt ring buffers are not initialized. This is by design, as
these secondary IH rings are only available on discrete GPUs. See
vega10_ih_sw_init() which explicitly skips ih1/ih2 initialization when
AMD_IS_APU is set.
However, amdgpu_gmc_filter_faults_remove() unconditionally uses ih1 to
get the timestamp of the last interrupt entry. When retry faults are
enabled on APUs (noretry=0), this function is called from the SVM page
fault recovery path, resulting in a NULL pointer dereference when
amdgpu_ih_decode_iv_ts_helper() attempts to access ih->ring[].
The crash manifests as:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000004

IP 9.3.0 from noretry=1") which changed the default for Renoir APU from
noretry=1 to noretry=0, enabling retry fault handling and thus
exercising the buggy code path.
Fix this by adding a check for ih1.ring_size before attempting to use
it. Also restore the soft_ih support from commit dd299441654f ("drm/amdgpu:
Rework retry fault removal"). This is needed if the hardware doesn't
support secondary HW IH rings.

In octep_device_setup(), if octep_ctrl_net_init() fails, the function
returns directly without unmapping the mapped resources and freeing the

Fix this by jumping to the unsupported_dev label, which performs the

igc: Reduce TSN TX packet buffer from 7KB to 5KB per queue
The previous 7 KB per queue caused TX unit hangs under heavy

the TSN recommendation in I225/I226 SW User Manual Section 7.5.4.
The 8 KB "freed" by this change is currently unused. This reduction
is not expected to impact throughput, as the i226 is PCIe-limited
for small TSN packets rather than TX-buffer-limited. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: do not strictly require dirty metadata threshold for metadata writepages
[BUG]
There is an internal report that over 1000 processes are
waiting at the io_schedule_timeout() of balance_dirty_pages(), causing
a system hang and trigger a kernel coredump.
The kernel is v6.4 kernel based, but the root problem still applies to
any upstream kernel before v6.18.
[CAUSE]
From Jan Kara for his wisdom on the dirty page balance behavior first.
This cgroup dirty limit was what was actually playing the role here
because the cgroup had only a small amount of memory and so the dirty
limit for it was something like 16MB.
Dirty throttling is responsible for enforcing that nobody can dirty
(significantly) more dirty memory than there's dirty limit. Thus when
a task is dirtying pages it periodically enters into balance_dirty_pages()
and we let it sleep there to slow down the dirtying.
When the system is over dirty limit already (either globally or within
a cgroup of the running task), we will not let the task exit from
balance_dirty_pages() until the number of dirty pages drops below the
limit.
So in this particular case, as I already mentioned, there was a cgroup
with relatively small amount of memory and as a result with dirty limit
set at 16MB. A task from that cgroup has dirtied about 28MB worth of
pages in btrfs btree inode and these were practically the only dirty
pages in that cgroup.
So that means the only way to reduce the dirty pages of that cgroup is
to writeback the dirty pages of btrfs btree inode, and only after that
those processes can exit balance_dirty_pages().
Now back to the btrfs part, btree_writepages() is responsible for
writing back dirty btree inode pages.
The problem here is, there is a btrfs internal threshold that if the
btree inode's dirty bytes are below the 32M threshold, it will not
do any writeback.
This behavior is to batch as much metadata as possible so we won't write
back those tree blocks and then later re-COW them again for another
modification.
This internal 32MiB is higher than the existing dirty page size (28MiB),
meaning no writeback will happen, causing a deadlock between btrfs and
cgroup:
- Btrfs doesn't want to write back btree inode until more dirty pages
- Cgroup/MM doesn't want more dirty pages for btrfs btree inode
Thus any process touching that btree inode is put into sleep until
the number of dirty pages is reduced.
Thanks Jan Kara a lot for the analysis of the root cause.
[ENHANCEMENT]
Since kernel commit b55102826d7d ("btrfs: set AS_KERNEL_FILE on the
btree_inode"), btrfs btree inode pages will only be charged to the root
cgroup which should have a much larger limit than btrfs' 32MiB
threshold.
So it should not affect newer kernels.
But for all current LTS kernels, they are all affected by this problem,
and backporting the whole AS_KERNEL_FILE may not be a good idea.
Even for newer kernels I still think it's a good idea to get
rid of the internal threshold at btree_writepages(), since for most cases
cgroup/MM has a better view of full system memory usage than btrfs' fixed
threshold.
For internal callers using btrfs_btree_balance_dirty() since that
function is already doing internal threshold check, we don't need to
bother them.
But for external callers of btree_writepages(), just respect their
requests and write back whatever they want, ignoring the internal
btrfs threshold to avoid such deadlock on btree inode dirty page
balancing. |

net: wwan: t7xx: fix potential skb->frags overflow in RX path
When receiving data in the DPMAIF RX path,
the t7xx_dpmaif_set_frag_to_skb() function adds
page fragments to an skb without checking if the number of
fragments has exceeded MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This could lead to a buffer overflow
in skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[] array, corrupting adjacent memory and
potentially causing kernel crashes or other undefined behavior.
This issue was identified through static code analysis by comparing with a
similar vulnerability fixed in the mt76 driver commit b102f0c522cf ("mt76:
fix array overflow on receiving too many fragments for a packet").
The vulnerability could be triggered if the modem firmware sends packets
with excessive fragments. While under normal protocol conditions (MTU 3080
bytes, BAT buffer 3584 bytes),
a single packet should not require additional
fragments, the kernel should not blindly trust firmware behavior.
Malicious, buggy, or compromised firmware could potentially craft packets
with more fragments than the kernel expects.
Fix this by adding a bounds check before calling skb_add_rx_frag() to
ensure nr_frags does not exceed MAX_SKB_FRAGS.
The check must be performed before unmapping to avoid a page leak
and double DMA unmap during device teardown. |

mm/damon/sysfs-scheme: cleanup access_pattern subdirs on scheme dir setup failure
When a DAMOS-scheme DAMON sysfs directory setup fails after setup of

Cleanup the directories under such failures. |
