CVSS v3.1 |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/mempolicy: skip non-present PMDs when queueing folios
Patch series "mm: handle device-private PMDs in walk callbacks", v3.
Since commit 368076f52ebe ("mm/huge_memory: add device-private THP support
to PMD operations") a PMD may hold a device-private swap entry whenever an
HMM-based GPU driver migrates an anonymous THP folio to device memory via
migrate_vma_pages().
pmd_trans_huge_lock() succeeds for such PMDs (pmd_is_huge() returns true
for any non-present, non-none huge PMD), so several MM walk callbacks that
used to assume present THP or migration entry are now reachable with a
device-private PMD. The results range from a VM_BUG_ON() firing on debug
kernels, to an oops on a bogus vmemmap dereference, to silently isolating
an unrelated live folio from LRU in the aliasing case.
This patch (of 3):
queue_folios_pmd() is called under pmd_trans_huge_lock(), whose
pmd_is_huge() check returns true for any non-present, non-none PMD
softleaf. Passing such a PMD to pmd_folio() treats the softleaf encoding
as a hardware PFN and can return a bogus folio pointer.
Mirror queue_folios_pte_range(): handle non-present entries before looking
up a folio. Keep migration entries counted as failures, but skip other
non-present PMDs such as device-private entries.
Potential trigger: an HMM-based GPU driver migrates an anonymous THP folio
to device memory via migrate_vma_pages(), leaving a device-private PMD.
Userspace then calls mbind(), migrate_pages() or set_mempolicy_home_node()
on that range. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/migrate_device: clear stale mapping after freeing swapcache
__migrate_device_pages() reads the folio mapping before calling
folio_free_swap(). When folio_free_swap() succeeds, the folio is removed
from the swap cache, but the saved mapping still points to swap_space.
Passing the stale mapping to folio_migrate_mapping() makes it use the
mapped-folio path for a folio that is no longer in swapcache. It can then
operate on swap_space.i_pages with invalid reference accounting,
eventually triggering a folio reference count BUG.
After a successful split, nr still contains the number of pages in the
original large folio, although each resulting page is now a separate
order-0 folio. Reset nr to 1 so each split folio is processed separately,
including its own swapcache removal and mapping lookup.
Refresh the saved mapping after folio_free_swap() so the current folio
state is used during migration. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/pagewalk: fix stale walk->action escaping walk_pmd_range()
If ->pmd_entry() sets walk->action = ACTION_AGAIN, the pmd_none() check is
retried. The PMD entry may be cleared at the point of retry.
In this case, if walk->ops->install_pte is not specified, the code
continues to the next PMD entry in the range without resetting
walk->action to ACTION_SUBTREE.
This leaves walk->action erroneously set to ACTION_AGAIN, which is
incorrect.
This was incorrect but not problematic up until commit 3b89863c3fa4
("mm/pagewalk: fix race between concurrent split and refault") which
updated walk_pud_range() to check for walk->action == ACTION_AGAIN upon
walk_pmd_range()'s return, causing the PUD walk to be retried.
In this case this results in duplicate walk callbacks being invoked,
which is erroneous and will break any caller that is not idempotent
with respect to this (and waste time for those which are). The result
is an out-of-bounds write, triggered by a local fuzzer:

tracing: Fix retry exhaustion in simple ring buffer reader swap
simple_ring_buffer_swap_reader_page() starts with retry set to 8 and
post-decrements it only after a failed link replacement. On the final
attempt, a successful replacement leaves retry at zero, while a failed
replacement leaves it at -1.
The current !retry test reverses both outcomes. It returns an error after
a successful final replacement, leaving the link update complete but the
reader bookkeeping unfinished. After a failed final replacement, it
falls through and updates the head and reader pointers as though the
replacement succeeded, which can corrupt the ring.
Treat only a negative counter as exhaustion and return the documented
-EBUSY error. |

tracing: Fix use-after-free in trace_pipe read on sub-buffer order change
Writing to buffer_subbuf_size_kb calls ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set(),
which frees every sub-buffer of the ring buffer, including the reader
page, and replaces them with newly allocated ones.
Readers of trace_pipe hold pointers into those pages. ring_buffer_peek()
looks up an event under cpu_buffer->reader_lock but returns the event
pointer after dropping the lock, and peek_next_entry() then calls
ring_buffer_event_length() and ring_buffer_event_data() on it. If the
sub-buffer order is changed in that window, the reader dereferences
freed memory:
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ring_buffer_peek+0x3e0/0x430
Read of size 1 at addr ffff88802a4cf010 by task syz-executor989/6002

buffer_subbuf_size_write+0x182/0x280 kernel/trace/trace.c:8221
Take trace_access_lock(RING_BUFFER_ALL_CPUS) around the order change.
This is the lock trace_pipe readers already hold across their entire
peek-and-print loop, so the swap can no longer race with a reader that
is dereferencing a peeked event. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
misc: nsm: bound the device-reported response length
nsm_sendrecv_msg_locked() stores the virtqueue used-ring length reported
by the NSM device into msg->resp.len without bounding it to the response
buffer. A malicious or buggy backend can report a length larger than the
response buffer; parse_resp_raw() then copies that many bytes out of the
fixed buffer to user space, disclosing adjacent kernel heap (an
out-of-bounds read). The request path already floors its length in
fill_req_raw(); the response path lacks the symmetric check.
Clamp the stored length to the size of the response buffer. Well-behaved
devices report no more than the posted buffer size, so conforming traffic
is unaffected. |

usb: gadget: at91_udc: drain polled-VBUS timer/work before udc is freed
In polled-VBUS mode (board.vbus_pin && board.vbus_polled), probe arms a
self-restarting cycle: at91_vbus_timer() schedules vbus_timer_work, and
at91_vbus_timer_work() calls at91_vbus_update() and re-arms the timer via
mod_timer(). Both recover the same udc through container_of and dereference
it on every iteration.
Neither teardown path cancels this cycle. udc is devm-allocated, so it is
freed after at91udc_remove() returns, and is likewise freed when probe
fails and devres runs. A timer callback or work item that is pending or
running at either point dereferences the freed udc.
Add at91_udc_shutdown_vbus_timer() and call it from at91udc_remove() and
from the usb_add_gadget_udc() failure path in probe; the remaining probe
error paths fail before the timer is armed. timer_shutdown_sync() waits
for a running callback and clears timer->function, which makes the work
handler's mod_timer() a permanent no-op; cancel_work_sync() then drains
any pending or running work whose re-arm attempt now does nothing. The
timer must be shut down first, since cancelling the work alone would let
the timer re-queue it. The guard mirrors probe: in IRQ mode the timer and
work_struct are never initialized.
This does not require a fault; a normal driver unbind can interleave with
an already queued work item.
This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool. |

cxl/ras: Fix cxl_rch_get_aer_info() out-of-bounds AER register read
cxl_rch_get_aer_info() copies the RCH Downstream Port AER capability from
the RCRB MMIO block using a readl() loop bounded by sizeof(struct
aer_capability_regs). This struct is a software layout and its embedded
struct pcie_tlp_log is larger than the on-wire AER capability. As a
result the loop reads past the mapped AER register block.
The over-read also populates the software-only tail fields including
header_log.header_len. An out-of-range header_len passed to
pcie_print_tlp_log() can then loop past the header log buffer and cause
a second out-of-bounds read.
The read was correct when introduced, but struct pcie_tlp_log has since
grown (Header Log and TLP Prefix Log sizes, header_len and flit fields),
so sizeof(struct aer_capability_regs) no longer matches the physical AER
capability.
Bound the read to the physical AER registers, header through the 16 byte
Header Log. Zero the destination first so the software-only fields are
deterministic. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
lockd, nfsd: RCU-protect nlmsvc_ops dispatch
nlmsvc_ops is published by nfsd_lockd_init() and cleared by
nfsd_lockd_shutdown() with plain stores, while lockd dereferences
it unguarded from dispatch sites in fs/lockd/svcsubs.c. The pointer
targets nfsd's .rodata and the fopen/fclose callbacks live in nfsd's
.text, so a stale load after rmmod nfsd results in either a NULL
deref or a module-text use-after-free.
Declare nlmsvc_ops as __rcu, publish via rcu_assign_pointer(), clear
via RCU_INIT_POINTER() + synchronize_rcu(). Add a struct module
*owner field to nlmsvc_binding and pin the module across indirect
calls with try_module_get/module_put. When the binding is torn down,
fall back to fput() to avoid leaking struct file references. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: restore rq_status_counter to even on all nfsd_dispatch() exit paths
nfsd_dispatch() sets rq_status_counter to an odd value once a request has
been decoded, and back to an even value once it has been fully processed,
forming a seq-lock like protocol with the lockless reader in
nfsd_nl_rpc_status_get_dumpit().
Only the fully successful path restored the counter to even. The cache-hit
(RC_REPLY), drop (RC_DROPIT / RQ_DROPME) and encode-error paths all return
after the odd-valued store without ever bringing the counter back to even.
Once one of those paths is taken, rq_status_counter is left odd: the next
request's decode ORs in 1 (still odd) and only a subsequent successful
encode restores even. While stuck odd, the dumpit reader treats the rqstp
fields as stable and its retry check compares against the same unchanging
odd value, so it never detects concurrent mutation. This exposes actively
mutating fields (e.g. args->ops / args->opcnt during compound decode and
release) to the lockless reader, which can read past the end of the
8-element inline ops array.
Add a helper that advances the counter to the next even value and call it
on every return path that follows the odd-valued store. The decode-error
path is left untouched as it is reached before the counter is set odd. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: cap decoded POSIX ACL count to bound sort cost
nfsd4_decode_posixacl() reads a u32 entry count off the wire and passes
it straight to posix_acl_alloc() and sort_pacl_range(). The latter is
an O(n^2) bubble sort, so a client-chosen count drives unbounded CPU in
the server's compound processing path.
nfsd4_decode_posixacl()
xdr_stream_decode_u32(&count) /* uncapped u32 */
posix_acl_alloc(count, GFP_KERNEL)
sort_pacl_range(*acl, 0, count - 1) /* O(n^2) bubble sort */
The encoder side in the same file already rejects ACLs whose a_count
exceeds NFS_ACL_MAX_ENTRIES, but the decoder introduced in commit
5fc51dfc2eb1 ("NFSD: Add support for XDR decoding POSIX draft ACLs")
omitted the symmetric check.
Fix by rejecting a wire count greater than NFS_ACL_MAX_ENTRIES with
nfserr_inval, before any allocation, so the sort is bounded by
NFS_ACL_MAX_ENTRIES^2 comparisons.
While we're in here, also fix the nfserr_resource return if
posix_acl_alloc() fails. That's not a legal error code for v4.1+. Change
it to return nfserr_jukebox as that's more appropriate for memory
allocation failures. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: clear CALLBACK_RUNNING on failed delegation recall queue
nfsd_break_one_deleg() sets NFSD4_CALLBACK_RUNNING via test_and_set_bit
at entry to serialize recall work, then calls nfsd4_run_cb() to queue
the recall. When the queue attempt fails the refcount bump is undone,
but the RUNNING bit is left set. The only site that clears the bit is
nfsd41_destroy_cb() (fs/nfsd/nfs4callback.c), which runs from the
workqueue and is therefore unreachable when nothing was queued.
The bit becomes a permanent latch on dp->dl_recall.cb_flags: every
subsequent break_lease() on the same delegation hits the early-return
guard in nfsd_break_one_deleg() and silently skips the recall, so the
delegation is never broken and the conflicting open or lock stalls.
Fix by clearing NFSD4_CALLBACK_RUNNING on the !queued branch alongside
the refcount_dec. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: clear opcnt on compound arg release to prevent OOB read
nfsd4_release_compoundargs() resets args->ops to the inline iops[8]
array when the dynamically-allocated ops buffer is freed, but leaves
args->opcnt at its original value (which can be up to 200 for NFSv4.1+
compounds).
If rq_status_counter is stuck at an odd value (which can happen when
nfsd_dispatch() hits an error path after setting it odd), the RPC
status dumpit handler reads min(opcnt, 16) entries from args->ops[].
Since iops only has 8 elements and is the last field in struct
nfsd4_compoundargs, reading indices 8-15 accesses adjacent slab memory
and leaks it to userspace via netlink.
Zero opcnt unconditionally in nfsd4_release_compoundargs() so stale
compound metadata is never exposed through the status interface.
[ cel: Remove the kvfree_rcu_mightsleep() sleep from the exposure window ] |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: defer vfree of compound ops to fix rpc_status UAF
The rpc_status netlink dumpit walks every in-flight svc_rqst under
rcu_read_lock and, for NFSv4 requests, reads opnums out of
args->ops[]. But args->ops is a separate vmalloc buffer freed
synchronously by vfree() in nfsd4_release_compoundargs() at the end
of every compound. The dumpit's rcu_read_lock pins the svc_rqst
struct itself (freed via kfree_rcu), but nothing defers the vfree
of the ops buffer across the RCU grace period. A concurrent compound
completion can therefore free the buffer while the dumpit is reading
it — a use-after-free on vmalloc memory.
The trailing seqcount recheck (smp_load_acquire of rq_status_counter)
cannot undo a load that already retired against freed memory.
Fix by replacing vfree(args->ops) with kvfree_rcu_mightsleep(), which
defers the free until after an RCU grace period. This makes the
existing rcu_read_lock in the dumpit sufficient to protect the read.
The tradeoff is that completed compound ops buffers (up to
200 * sizeof(struct nfsd4_op)) persist in memory slightly longer,
across one grace period, before being reclaimed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: ensure nfsd_file_do_acquire() does not use a non-opened file
->atomic_open is permitted to return success without actually opening
the file. It indicates this by calling finish_no_open().
This means dentry_create() can return a file which hasn't been opened.
This is extremely unlikely as ->atomic_open handlers typically
use finish_no_open() only for already existing files, and dentry_create()
isn't called in that case, and the parent being locked should prevent
races.
However out of an abundance of caution it seems wise to teach nfsd to
only use the file returned by dentry_create() if FMODE_OPENED is set,
indicating that it has in fact been opened. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix clock domain mismatch in clients_still_reclaiming()
clients_still_reclaiming() computes a deadline from nn->boot_time
(CLOCK_REALTIME, ~1.7 billion) but compares it against
ktime_get_boottime_seconds() (CLOCK_BOOTTIME, seconds since boot).
The comparison is always false — it would take ~54 years of uptime
for BOOTTIME to exceed the REALTIME-derived deadline.
This means any client can hold the server in grace indefinitely by
sending CLAIM_PREVIOUS OPEN requests, blocking all non-reclaim
operations for all other clients.
Add boot_time_bt (CLOCK_BOOTTIME) alongside the existing boot_time
and use it for the deadline computation. boot_time (CLOCK_REALTIME)
is preserved for its cl_boot clientid-nonce role. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix fcache_disposal UAF by inlining dispose state into nfsd_net
nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed() defers fput() to nfsd service threads
via a per-net freeme queue, preventing the shrinker and GC worker from
bearing the cost of closing files (see ffb402596147). However, the
queue lives in a separately-allocated struct nfsd_fcache_disposal that
is freed by nfsd_free_fcache_disposal_net() during per-net teardown.
The global shrinker, laundrette, and fsnotify callbacks can still be
inside nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed() dereferencing that pointer,
causing a use-after-free.
Inline the spinlock and freeme list directly into struct nfsd_net (as
fcache_dispose_lock and fcache_dispose_list), eliminating the separately
allocated struct nfsd_fcache_disposal entirely. These fields now have
the same lifetime as the net namespace itself, so there is no dangling
pointer to chase.
nfsd_file_cache_start_net() now just initializes the inline fields and
cannot fail due to allocation. nfsd_file_cache_shutdown_net() drains
the inline list directly instead of freeing a separate struct. The
alloc/free helpers are removed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix nfsd_file leak on inter-server COPY setup failure
When nfsd4_setup_inter_ssc() fails, nfsd4_copy() returns
nfserr_offload_denied directly, bypassing the out: label where
release_copy_files() would drop the nf_dst reference taken by
nfs4_preprocess_stateid_op(). Each failed inter-server COPY
leaks one nfsd_file, pinning file/inode/dentry/vfsmount.
Fix by setting status and jumping to out: instead of returning
directly. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix null dereference in nfsd4_setattr for deleg timestamp attrs
When a SETATTR request includes FATTR4_WORD2_TIME_DELEG_ACCESS or
FATTR4_WORD2_TIME_DELEG_MODIFY in the attribute bitmap, nfsd4_setattr()
sets deleg_attrs=true and calls nfs4_preprocess_stateid_op() to validate
the stateid.
If the client supplies the NFSv4 "one stateid" (all-0xFF bytes),
check_special_stateids() returns nfs_ok without populating the output
nfs4_stid pointer, because the special-stateid path in
nfs4_preprocess_stateid_op() jumps to done: with s==NULL, and the
"if (s)" block that would set *cstid is skipped. The local variable `st`
remains NULL.
Back in nfsd4_setattr(), the if (deleg_attrs) block then unconditionally
dereferences st->sc_type (at offset 4 from NULL), causing a kernel oops.
This is remotely triggerable by any NFSv4 client: send COMPOUND [PUTROOTFH,
SETATTR(ONE_STATEID, {bmval2=FATTR4_WORD2_TIME_DELEG_ACCESS, ...})].
No authentication, delegation, or prior state is required.
Fix by adding a NULL check before the dereference. A special stateid is
not a delegation stateid, so the existing nfserr_bad_stateid return value
is already correct; we only need to guard the pointer dereference itself. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix partial-write detection in nfsd_direct_write
nfsd_direct_write() walks a list of write segments and, after each
vfs_iocb_iter_write(), tries to detect a short write so the loop can
stop before placing the next segment at a wrong file offset:
host_err = vfs_iocb_iter_write(file, kiocb, &segments[i].iter);
if (host_err < 0)
return host_err;
*cnt += host_err;
if (host_err < segments[i].iter.count)
break; /* partial write */
vfs_iocb_iter_write() runs the iter through ->write_iter(), which
advances the iter by the number of bytes written. By the time the
check runs, segments[i].iter.count is the residual, not the original
request length:
before write_iter: iter.count == original_len
after write_iter: iter.count == original_len - host_err
The condition then reduces to host_err < original_len - host_err, so
the break fires only when less than half of the segment was written.
Any short write completing between 50% and 99% of the segment slips
through; the loop advances to the next segment with kiocb->ki_pos
only bumped by the short amount, writing the next segment's payload
at the wrong offset and over-reporting *cnt to the NFS client.
Snapshot the segment's byte count before the write and compare
host_err against that snapshot so any short write breaks the loop. |
