| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bonding: provide a net pointer to __skb_flow_dissect()
After 3cbf4ffba5ee ("net: plumb network namespace into __skb_flow_dissect")
we have to provide a net pointer to __skb_flow_dissect(),
either via skb->dev, skb->sk, or a user provided pointer.
In the following case, syzbot was able to cook a bare skb.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
platform/x86: hp-bioscfg: Fix kobject warnings for empty attribute names
The hp-bioscfg driver attempts to register kobjects with empty names when
the HP BIOS returns attributes with empty name strings. This causes
multiple kernel warnings:
kobject: (00000000135fb5e6): attempted to be registered with empty name!
WARNING: CPU: 14 PID: 3336 at lib/kobject.c:219 kobject_add_internal+0x2eb/0x310
Add validation in hp_init_bios_buffer_attribute() to check if the
attribute name is empty after parsing it from the WMI buffer. If empty,
log a debug message and skip registration of that attribute, allowing the
module to continue processing other valid attributes. |
| 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. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm: Do not allow userspace to trigger kernel warnings in drm_gem_change_handle_ioctl()
Since GEM bo handles are u32 in the uapi and the internal implementation
uses idr_alloc() which uses int ranges, passing a new handle larger than
INT_MAX trivially triggers a kernel warning:
idr_alloc():
...
if (WARN_ON_ONCE(start < 0))
return -EINVAL;
...
Fix it by rejecting new handles above INT_MAX and at the same time make
the end limit calculation more obvious by moving into int domain. |

Bluetooth: hci_uart: fix null-ptr-deref in hci_uart_write_work
hci_uart_set_proto() sets HCI_UART_PROTO_INIT before calling
hci_uart_register_dev(), which calls proto->open() to initialize
hu->priv. However, if a TTY write wakeup occurs during this window,
hci_uart_tx_wakeup() may schedule write_work before hu->priv is
initialized, leading to a NULL pointer dereference in
hci_uart_write_work() when proto->dequeue() accesses hu->priv.
The race condition is:
CPU0 CPU1

hci_uart_set_proto()
set_bit(HCI_UART_PROTO_INIT)

wifi: ath12k: fix dead lock while flushing management frames
Commit [1] converted the management transmission work item into a
wiphy work. Since a wiphy work can only run under wiphy lock
protection, a race condition happens in below scenario:
1. a management frame is queued for transmission.
2. ath12k_mac_op_flush() gets called to flush pending frames associated
with the hardware (i.e, vif being NULL). Then in ath12k_mac_flush()
the process waits for the transmission done.
3. Since wiphy lock has been taken by the flush process, the transmission
work item has no chance to run, hence the dead lock.
>From user view, this dead lock results in below issue:
wlp8s0: authenticate with xxxxxx (local address=xxxxxx)
wlp8s0: send auth to xxxxxx (try 1/3)
wlp8s0: authenticate with xxxxxx (local address=xxxxxx)
wlp8s0: send auth to xxxxxx (try 1/3)
wlp8s0: authenticated
wlp8s0: associate with xxxxxx (try 1/3)
wlp8s0: aborting association with xxxxxx by local choice (Reason: 3=DEAUTH_LEAVING)
ath12k_pci 0000:08:00.0: failed to flush mgmt transmit queue, mgmt pkts pending 1
The dead lock can be avoided by invoking wiphy_work_flush() to proactively
run the queued work item. Note actually it is already present in
ath12k_mac_op_flush(), however it does not protect the case where vif
being NULL. Hence move it ahead to cover this case as well.

virtio_net: Fix misalignment bug in struct virtnet_info
Use the new TRAILING_OVERLAP() helper to fix a misalignment bug
along with the following warning:
drivers/net/virtio_net.c:429:46: warning: structure containing a flexible array member is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]
This helper creates a union between a flexible-array member (FAM)
and a set of members that would otherwise follow it (in this case
`u8 rss_hash_key_data[VIRTIO_NET_RSS_MAX_KEY_SIZE];`). This
overlays the trailing members (rss_hash_key_data) onto the FAM
(hash_key_data) while keeping the FAM and the start of MEMBERS aligned.
The static_assert() ensures this alignment remains.
Notice that due to tail padding in flexible `struct
virtio_net_rss_config_trailer`, `rss_trailer.hash_key_data`
(at offset 83 in struct virtnet_info) and `rss_hash_key_data` (at
offset 84 in struct virtnet_info) are misaligned by one byte. See
below:
struct virtio_net_rss_config_trailer {
__le16 max_tx_vq; /* 0 2 */
__u8 hash_key_length; /* 2 1 */
__u8 hash_key_data[]; /* 3 0 */
/* size: 4, cachelines: 1, members: 3 */
/* padding: 1 */
/* last cacheline: 4 bytes */
};
struct virtnet_info {
...
struct virtio_net_rss_config_trailer rss_trailer; /* 80 4 */
/* XXX last struct has 1 byte of padding */
u8 rss_hash_key_data[40]; /* 84 40 */
...
/* size: 832, cachelines: 13, members: 48 */
/* sum members: 801, holes: 8, sum holes: 31 */
/* paddings: 2, sum paddings: 5 */
};
After changes, those members are correctly aligned at offset 795:
struct virtnet_info {
...
union {
struct virtio_net_rss_config_trailer rss_trailer; /* 792 4 */
struct {
unsigned char __offset_to_hash_key_data[3]; /* 792 3 */
u8 rss_hash_key_data[40]; /* 795 40 */
}; /* 792 43 */
}; /* 792 44 */
...
/* size: 840, cachelines: 14, members: 47 */
/* sum members: 801, holes: 8, sum holes: 35 */
/* padding: 4 */
/* paddings: 1, sum paddings: 4 */
/* last cacheline: 8 bytes */
};
As a result, the RSS key passed to the device is shifted by 1
byte: the last byte is cut off, and instead a (possibly
uninitialized) byte is added at the beginning.
As a last note `struct virtio_net_rss_config_hdr *rss_hdr;` is also
moved to the end, since it seems those three members should stick
around together. :) |

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. |

arm64/fpsimd: ptrace: Fix SVE writes on !SME systems
When SVE is supported but SME is not supported, a ptrace write to the
NT_ARM_SVE regset can place the tracee into an invalid state where
(non-streaming) SVE register data is stored in FP_STATE_SVE format but
TIF_SVE is clear. This can result in a later warning from
fpsimd_restore_current_state(), e.g.
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 7214 at arch/arm64/kernel/fpsimd.c:383 fpsimd_restore_current_state+0x50c/0x748
When this happens, fpsimd_restore_current_state() will set TIF_SVE,
placing the task into the correct state. This occurs before any other
check of TIF_SVE can possibly occur, as other checks of TIF_SVE only
happen while the FPSIMD/SVE/SME state is live. Thus, aside from the
warning, there is no functional issue.
This bug was introduced during rework to error handling in commit:
9f8bf718f2923 ("arm64/fpsimd: ptrace: Gracefully handle errors")
... where the setting of TIF_SVE was moved into a block which is only
executed when system_supports_sme() is true.
Fix this by removing the system_supports_sme() check. This ensures that
TIF_SVE is set for (SVE-formatted) writes to NT_ARM_SVE, at the cost of
unconditionally manipulating the tracee's saved svcr value. The
manipulation of svcr is benign and inexpensive, and we already do
similar elsewhere (e.g. during signal handling), so I don't think it's
worth guarding this with system_supports_sme() checks.
Aside from the above, there is no functional change. The 'type' argument
to sve_set_common() is only set to ARM64_VEC_SME (in ssve_set())) when
system_supports_sme(), so the ARM64_VEC_SME case in the switch statement
is still unreachable when !system_supports_sme(). When
CONFIG_ARM64_SME=n, the only caller of sve_set_common() is sve_set(),
and the compiler can constant-fold for the case where type is
ARM64_VEC_SVE, removing the logic for other cases. |

Bluetooth: MGMT: Fix memory leak in set_ssp_complete
Fix memory leak in set_ssp_complete() where mgmt_pending_cmd structures
are not freed after being removed from the pending list.
Commit 302a1f674c00 ("Bluetooth: MGMT: Fix possible UAFs") replaced
mgmt_pending_foreach() calls with individual command handling but missed
adding mgmt_pending_free() calls in both error and success paths of
set_ssp_complete(). Other completion functions like set_le_complete()
were fixed correctly in the same commit.
This causes a memory leak of the mgmt_pending_cmd structure and its

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: fix segmentation of forwarding fraglist GRO
This patch enhances GSO segment handling by properly checking
the SKB_GSO_DODGY flag for frag_list GSO packets, addressing
low throughput issues observed when a station accesses IPv4
servers via hotspots with an IPv6-only upstream interface.
Specifically, it fixes a bug in GSO segmentation when forwarding
GRO packets containing a frag_list. The function skb_segment_list
cannot correctly process GRO skbs that have been converted by XLAT,
since XLAT only translates the header of the head skb. Consequently,
skbs in the frag_list may remain untranslated, resulting in protocol
inconsistencies and reduced throughput.
To address this, the patch explicitly sets the SKB_GSO_DODGY flag
for GSO packets in XLAT's IPv4/IPv6 protocol translation helpers
(bpf_skb_proto_4_to_6 and bpf_skb_proto_6_to_4). This marks GSO
packets as potentially modified after protocol translation. As a
result, GSO segmentation will avoid using skb_segment_list and
instead falls back to skb_segment for packets with the SKB_GSO_DODGY
flag. This ensures that only safe and fully translated frag_list
packets are processed by skb_segment_list, resolving protocol
inconsistencies and improving throughput when forwarding GRO packets
converted by XLAT. |

firewire: core: fix race condition against transaction list
The list of transaction is enumerated without acquiring card lock when
processing AR response event. This causes a race condition bug when
processing AT request completion event concurrently.
This commit fixes the bug by put timer start for split transaction
expiration into the scope of lock. The value of jiffies in card structure
is referred before acquiring the lock. |

nvmet: fix race in nvmet_bio_done() leading to NULL pointer dereference
There is a race condition in nvmet_bio_done() that can cause a NULL
pointer dereference in blk_cgroup_bio_start():
1. nvmet_bio_done() is called when a bio completes
2. nvmet_req_complete() is called, which invokes req->ops->queue_response(req)
3. The queue_response callback can re-queue and re-submit the same request
4. The re-submission reuses the same inline_bio from nvmet_req
5. Meanwhile, nvmet_req_bio_put() (called after nvmet_req_complete)
invokes bio_uninit() for inline_bio, which sets bio->bi_blkg to NULL
6. The re-submitted bio enters submit_bio_noacct_nocheck()
7. blk_cgroup_bio_start() dereferences bio->bi_blkg, causing a crash:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000028
#PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
RIP: 0010:blk_cgroup_bio_start+0x10/0xd0
Call Trace:

Fix this by reordering nvmet_bio_done() to call nvmet_req_bio_put()
BEFORE nvmet_req_complete(). This ensures the bio is cleaned up before
the request can be re-submitted, preventing the race condition. |
