| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring: fix possible deadlock in io_register_iowq_max_workers()
The io_register_iowq_max_workers() function calls io_put_sq_data(),
which acquires the sqd->lock without releasing the uring_lock.
Similar to the commit 009ad9f0c6ee ("io_uring: drop ctx->uring_lock
before acquiring sqd->lock"), this can lead to a potential deadlock
situation.
To resolve this issue, the uring_lock is released before calling
io_put_sq_data(), and then it is re-acquired after the function call.
This change ensures that the locks are acquired in the correct
order, preventing the possibility of a deadlock. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_core: cancel all works upon hci_unregister_dev()
syzbot is reporting that calling hci_release_dev() from hci_error_reset()
due to hci_dev_put() from hci_error_reset() can cause deadlock at
destroy_workqueue(), for hci_error_reset() is called from
hdev->req_workqueue which destroy_workqueue() needs to flush.
We need to make sure that hdev->{rx_work,cmd_work,tx_work} which are
queued into hdev->workqueue and hdev->{power_on,error_reset} which are
queued into hdev->req_workqueue are no longer running by the moment
destroy_workqueue(hdev->workqueue);
destroy_workqueue(hdev->req_workqueue);
are called from hci_release_dev().
Call cancel_work_sync() on these work items from hci_unregister_dev()
as soon as hdev->list is removed from hci_dev_list. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: bypass empty buckets in batadv_purge_orig_ref()
Many syzbot reports are pointing to soft lockups in
batadv_purge_orig_ref() [1]
Root cause is unknown, but we can avoid spending too much
time there and perhaps get more interesting reports.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mt76: mt7921s: fix potential hung tasks during chip recovery
During chip recovery (e.g. chip reset), there is a possible situation that
kernel worker reset_work is holding the lock and waiting for kernel thread
stat_worker to be parked, while stat_worker is waiting for the release of
the same lock.
It causes a deadlock resulting in the dumping of hung tasks messages and
possible rebooting of the device.
This patch prevents the execution of stat_worker during the chip recovery. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: do not create EA inode under buffer lock
ext4_xattr_set_entry() creates new EA inodes while holding buffer lock
on the external xattr block. This is problematic as it nests all the
allocation locking (which acquires locks on other buffers) under the
buffer lock. This can even deadlock when the filesystem is corrupted and
e.g. quota file is setup to contain xattr block as data block. Move the
allocation of EA inode out of ext4_xattr_set_entry() into the callers. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: imx: Introduce timeout when waiting on transmitter empty
By waiting at most 1 second for USR2_TXDC to be set, we avoid a potential
deadlock.
In case of the timeout, there is not much we can do, so we simply ignore
the transmitter state and optimistically try to continue. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: lpi2c: Avoid calling clk_get_rate during transfer
Instead of repeatedly calling clk_get_rate for each transfer, lock
the clock rate and cache the value.
A deadlock has been observed while adding tlv320aic32x4 audio codec to
the system. When this clock provider adds its clock, the clk mutex is
locked already, it needs to access i2c, which in return needs the mutex
for clk_get_rate as well. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/nouveau: don't attempt to schedule hpd_work on headless cards
If the card doesn't have display hardware, hpd_work and hpd_lock are
left uninitialized which causes BUG when attempting to schedule hpd_work
on runtime PM resume.
Fix it by adding headless flag to DRM and skip any hpd if it's set. |

USB: class: cdc-wdm: Fix CPU lockup caused by excessive log messages
The syzbot fuzzer found that the interrupt-URB completion callback in
the cdc-wdm driver was taking too long, and the driver's immediate
resubmission of interrupt URBs with -EPROTO status combined with the
dummy-hcd emulation to cause a CPU lockup:

Testing showed that the problem did not occur if the two error
messages -- the first two lines above -- were removed; apparently adding
material to the kernel log takes a surprisingly large amount of time.
In any case, the best approach for preventing these lockups and to
avoid spamming the log with thousands of error messages per second is
to ratelimit the two dev_err() calls. Therefore we replace them with
dev_err_ratelimited(). |

media: v4l: async: Properly re-initialise notifier entry in unregister
The notifier_entry of a notifier is not re-initialised after unregistering
the notifier. This leads to dangling pointers being left there so use

If p9_check_errors() fails early in p9_client_rpc(), req->rc.tag
will not be properly initialized. However, trace_9p_client_res()
ends up trying to print it out anyway before p9_client_rpc()
finishes.
Fix this issue by assigning default values to p9_fcall fields
such as 'tag' and (just in case KMSAN unearths something new) 'id'
during the tag allocation stage. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: qat - validate slices count returned by FW
The function adf_send_admin_tl_start() enables the telemetry (TL)
feature on a QAT device by sending the ICP_QAT_FW_TL_START message to
the firmware. This triggers the FW to start writing TL data to a DMA
buffer in memory and returns an array containing the number of
accelerators of each type (slices) supported by this HW.
The pointer to this array is stored in the adf_tl_hw_data data
structure called slice_cnt.
The array slice_cnt is then used in the function tl_print_dev_data()
to report in debugfs only statistics about the supported accelerators.
An incorrect value of the elements in slice_cnt might lead to an out
of bounds memory read.
At the moment, there isn't an implementation of FW that returns a wrong
value, but for robustness validate the slice count array returned by FW. |

eth: sungem: remove .ndo_poll_controller to avoid deadlocks

WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 1 at net/core/netpoll.c:370 netpoll_send_skb+0x1fc/0x20c
gem_poll_controller() disables interrupts, which may sleep.
We can't sleep in netpoll, it has interrupts disabled completely.
Strangely, gem_poll_controller() doesn't even poll the completions,
and instead acts as if an interrupt has fired so it just schedules
NAPI and exits. None of this has been necessary for years, since
netpoll invokes NAPI directly. |

nilfs_segctor_destroy() terminates that thread, as shown in the call trace
below:
nilfs_detach_log_writer
nilfs_segctor_destroy
nilfs_segctor_kill_thread --> Shut down log writer thread
flush_work
nilfs_iput_work_func
nilfs_dispose_list
iput
nilfs_evict_inode
nilfs_transaction_commit
nilfs_construct_segment (if inode needs sync)
nilfs_segctor_sync --> Attempt to synchronize with
log writer thread
*** DEADLOCK ***
Fix this issue by changing nilfs_segctor_sync() so that the log writer
thread returns normally without synchronizing after it terminates, and by
forcing tasks that are already waiting to complete once after the thread
terminates.
The skipped inode metadata flushout will then be processed together in the
subsequent cleanup work in nilfs_segctor_destroy(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Add BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SKB attach type enforcement in BPF_LINK_CREATE
bpf_prog_attach uses attach_type_to_prog_type to enforce proper
attach type for BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SKB. link_create uses
bpf_prog_get and relies on bpf_prog_attach_check_attach_type
to properly verify prog_type <> attach_type association.
Add missing attach_type enforcement for the link_create case.
Otherwise, it's currently possible to attach cgroup_skb prog
types to other cgroup hooks. |

net: openvswitch: fix overwriting ct original tuple for ICMPv6
OVS_PACKET_CMD_EXECUTE has 3 main attributes:
- OVS_PACKET_ATTR_KEY - Packet metadata in a netlink format.
- OVS_PACKET_ATTR_PACKET - Binary packet content.
- OVS_PACKET_ATTR_ACTIONS - Actions to execute on the packet.
OVS_PACKET_ATTR_KEY is parsed first to populate sw_flow_key structure
with the metadata like conntrack state, input port, recirculation id,
etc. Then the packet itself gets parsed to populate the rest of the
keys from the packet headers.
Whenever the packet parsing code starts parsing the ICMPv6 header, it
first zeroes out fields in the key corresponding to Neighbor Discovery
information even if it is not an ND packet.
It is an 'ipv6.nd' field. However, the 'ipv6' is a union that shares
the space between 'nd' and 'ct_orig' that holds the original tuple
conntrack metadata parsed from the OVS_PACKET_ATTR_KEY.
ND packets should not normally have conntrack state, so it's fine to
share the space, but normal ICMPv6 Echo packets or maybe other types of
ICMPv6 can have the state attached and it should not be overwritten.
The issue results in all but the last 4 bytes of the destination
address being wiped from the original conntrack tuple leading to
incorrect packet matching and potentially executing wrong actions
in case this packet recirculates within the datapath or goes back
to userspace.
ND fields should not be accessed in non-ND packets, so not clearing
them should be fine. Executing memset() only for actual ND packets to
avoid the issue.
Initializing the whole thing before parsing is needed because ND packet
may not contain all the options.
The issue only affects the OVS_PACKET_CMD_EXECUTE path and doesn't
affect packets entering OVS datapath from network interfaces, because
in this case CT metadata is populated from skb after the packet is
already parsed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: Reload only IB representors upon lag disable/enable
On lag disable, the bond IB device along with all of its
representors are destroyed, and then the slaves' representors get reloaded.
In case the slave IB representor load fails, the eswitch error flow
unloads all representors, including ethernet representors, where the
netdevs get detached and removed from lag bond. Such flow is inaccurate
as the lag driver is not responsible for loading/unloading ethernet
representors. Furthermore, the flow described above begins by holding
lag lock to prevent bond changes during disable flow. However, when
reaching the ethernet representors detachment from lag, the lag lock is
required again, triggering the following deadlock:

Thus, upon lag enable/disable, load and unload only the IB representors
of the slaves preventing the deadlock mentioned above.
While at it, refactor the mlx5_esw_offloads_rep_load() function to have
a static helper method for its internal logic, in symmetry with the
representor unload design. |

net: fec: remove .ndo_poll_controller to avoid deadlocks
There is a deadlock issue found in sungem driver, please refer to the
commit ac0a230f719b ("eth: sungem: remove .ndo_poll_controller to avoid
deadlocks"). The root cause of the issue is that netpoll is in atomic
context and disable_irq() is called by .ndo_poll_controller interface
of sungem driver, however, disable_irq() might sleep. After analyzing
the implementation of fec_poll_controller(), the fec driver should have
the same issue. Due to the fec driver uses NAPI for TX completions, the
.ndo_poll_controller is unnecessary to be implemented in the fec driver,
so fec_poll_controller() can be safely removed. |
