| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rxrpc: Fix recv-recv race of completed call
If a call receives an event (such as incoming data), the call gets placed
on the socket's queue and a thread in recvmsg can be awakened to go and
process it. Once the thread has picked up the call off of the queue,
further events will cause it to be requeued, and once the socket lock is
dropped (recvmsg uses call->user_mutex to allow the socket to be used in
parallel), a second thread can come in and its recvmsg can pop the call off
the socket queue again.
In such a case, the first thread will be receiving stuff from the call and
the second thread will be blocked on call->user_mutex. The first thread
can, at this point, process both the event that it picked call for and the
event that the second thread picked the call for and may see the call
terminate - in which case the call will be "released", decoupling the call
from the user call ID assigned to it (RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID in the control
message).
The first thread will return okay, but then the second thread will wake up
holding the user_mutex and, if it sees that the call has been released by
the first thread, it will BUG thusly:
kernel BUG at net/rxrpc/recvmsg.c:474!
Fix this by just dequeuing the call and ignoring it if it is seen to be
already released. We can't tell userspace about it anyway as the user call
ID has become stale. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched/rt: Fix race in push_rt_task
Overview
========
When a CPU chooses to call push_rt_task and picks a task to push to
another CPU's runqueue then it will call find_lock_lowest_rq method
which would take a double lock on both CPUs' runqueues. If one of the
locks aren't readily available, it may lead to dropping the current
runqueue lock and reacquiring both the locks at once. During this window
it is possible that the task is already migrated and is running on some
other CPU. These cases are already handled. However, if the task is
migrated and has already been executed and another CPU is now trying to
wake it up (ttwu) such that it is queued again on the runqeue
(on_rq is 1) and also if the task was run by the same CPU, then the
current checks will pass even though the task was migrated out and is no
longer in the pushable tasks list.
Crashes
=======
This bug resulted in quite a few flavors of crashes triggering kernel
panics with various crash signatures such as assert failures, page
faults, null pointer dereferences, and queue corruption errors all
coming from scheduler itself.

vsock: treat TCP_CLOSING as once-established
Handle the TCP_ESTABLISHED -> TCP_CLOSING transition on OP_RST, which can
race with the connect loop. Immediately break and return 0 on
ESTABLISHED/CLOSING. The return value of connect() should reflect what
happened up to the point the connection was established or failed. Events
that occur afterwards must not affect it. E.g. even if OP_RW has already
set sk_err, connect() should still return 0, not ENOBUFS because of it.
Adapt the inaccurate comment above signal_pending().
Resetting a socket that is still present in connected_table can lead to
memory corruption. The reporter noted lost transports for in-flight skbs,
and I have reproduced crashes caused by re-insertion into connected_table.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bcmgenet: unshare the skb before writing the control block
bcmgenet stores first_cb, last_cb and bytes_sent in the skb control
block and reads them back on completion to free the skb and credit BQL.
ether_setup() leaves IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING set, so the stack can resubmit
a shared skb that is still in the ring. The next transmit overwrites
last_cb, so the earlier slots complete without crediting their bytes
and BQL stalls the queue until the watchdog resets it.
Unshare the skb before writing the control block.
Reproduce with pktgen in clone_skb mode, which hands the driver the same
skb while earlier copies are still in the ring:
modprobe pktgen
pg=/proc/net/pktgen
echo "add_device eth0" > $pg/kpktgend_0
echo "dst_mac AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF" > $pg/eth0

echo start > $pg/pgctrl &
sleep 5
echo stop > $pg/pgctrl
wait
cat /sys/class/net/eth0/queues/tx-0/byte_queue_limits/inflight
inflight stays nonzero on the now idle queue. clone_skb 0 leaves it at
zero. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
autofs: ignore notification errors from a replaced pipe
autofs_notify_daemon() takes a reference to the current notification
pipe under wq_mutex, then drops the mutex before writing the request. The
write can block while the daemon enters catatonic mode and installs a
replacement pipe.
If the old pipe's reader is then closed, the delayed write returns -EPIPE
and the generic error path enters catatonic mode again. That transition
acts on the current superblock state, closes the replacement pipe, and
releases the new daemon generation's wait queues.
Only enter catatonic mode when the pipe which failed is still the current
pipe. Factor the already-locked transition so the identity check and state
change are atomic with respect to another replacement.
This was reproduced on v7.3-rc5-337-gff47652a4b66c in a local QEMU guest.
An unprivileged UID 65534 lookup filled the old packet pipe before a
normal CATATONIC/SETPIPEFD restart. On the unmodified kernel, the new pipe
received HUP and both a pending victim lookup and a later lookup failed
with ENOENT in two out of two fresh-mount runs.
With this change, the new pipe remained active, received an intact
304-byte request, and both victim lookups completed in two out of two
runs. Normal lookup and restart-without-a-blocked-writer controls passed.
No KASAN, oops, refcount, or lock diagnostic was observed. A source
reproducer and complete local logs are available privately on request.
The demonstrated impact is limited to denial of a shared autofs service
during a legitimate daemon restart. No memory corruption, information leak,
privilege escalation, or code execution primitive was observed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/kvm: Don't consume async #PF flags on a kernel #PF in NMI context
An async #PF "page not present" event arrives through the #PF vector,
and its reason sits in the per-CPU apf_reason.flags until
__kvm_handle_async_pf() reads and clears it. If an NMI arrives after
the event is injected and before the #PF handler reads the flags, and
the NMI handler itself takes a #PF, that fault reads and clears the
flags belonging to the #PF it interrupted. It then finds interrupts
disabled in the NMI context it interrupted, and panics:
Kernel panic - not syncing: Host injected async #PF in interrupt
disabled region
Call Trace:

</NMI>
The last RIP line shows the NMI landing on the first instruction of
the #PF entry. perf with user call chains takes such a fault: the
sampling NMI walks the user stack with __get_user(), which faults when
a saved frame pointer is not a valid user address or the walk runs off
the top of the stack. The same window exists when KVM, running as an
L1 hypervisor with DELIVERY_AS_PF_VMEXIT, reads the flags itself after
a #PF VM-exit.
The NMI entry code saves and restores CR2 for this nesting, but not the
async #PF reason. Andy Lutomirski described the race, with perf as the
example, when async #PF delivery was reworked in 2020 [1]. Saving and
clearing the flags across the NMI, next to CR2, was discussed there but
not merged.
Since that rework, Linux has stopped setting KVM_ASYNC_PF_SEND_ALWAYS,
so the host delivers "page not present" only for user mode faults and
a kernel-mode fault in NMI context (including kernel-mode #MC and #DB)
cannot be an async page fault. In that case, return without touching
the flags so that the interrupted handler finds them intact.
Tested on v7.3-rc5 in a 4-vCPU, 2 GiB guest restored from a snapshot
whose memory is served on demand through userfaultfd, so that reading
it back takes async #PFs, while every thread samples hardware cycles
with user call chains and points its frame pointer at an unmapped page.
Without this patch the guest panicked as above in 3 of 3 runs. With it,
the guest survived 3 of 3 runs of 60 seconds, and the host counted
148,441 to 153,334 kvm_async_pf_not_present events in the first 20
seconds of each. On 6.18.50 the results were the same: the guest
panicked without the patch and survived with it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv4: stop route notification sizing when nexthop group shrinks
Commit 680aea08e78c ("net: ipv4: Emit notification when fib
hardware flags are changed") added an RCU-only fib_nlmsg_size() call
for asynchronous hardware flag notifications.
fib_nlmsg_size() checks fib_info_num_path() before each iteration,
then fib_info_nhc() independently reloads nh->nh_grp. If
RTM_NEWNEXTHOP replaces a group with fewer paths between those loads,
fib_info_nhc() returns NULL and fib_nexthop_nlmsg_size() dereferences
it.
Stop sizing when the indexed path is absent. Nexthop groups are
dense, so the current snapshot has no later path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv4: do not warn on route notification size race
Commit 680aea08e78c ("net: ipv4: Emit notification when fib hardware
flags are changed") added asynchronous route notifications for hardware
flag changes.
fib_alias_hw_flags_set() sizes the skb with fib_nlmsg_size() and later
fills it with fib_dump_info() while holding only RCU. With nexthop
compatibility mode enabled, a concurrent replacement can grow the group
between these independent snapshots. fib_dump_info() can then
legitimately return -EMSGSIZE, so the warning does not prove a sizing bug.
Remove the warning. The existing error path still frees the skb and
reports the error to listeners. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KEYS: Fix add_key() race with keyring restriction
__key_create_or_update() snapshots keyring->restrict_link before taking
the destination keyring's semaphore. keyring_restrict() installs a
restriction while holding that semaphore.
This allows a writer to observe no restriction, wait for the keyring
owner to install a reject-all restriction and return successfully, and
then link a key using the stale NULL snapshot. The writer only needs
write permission on the destination keyring.
Move the restrict_link read after __key_link_lock() and
__key_link_begin(). The read and the subsequent restriction check are
then serialized with restriction installation by keyring->sem.
The race was reproduced on v7.2.8 in 19 executions where restriction
installation returned before the link completed. All 19 linked the key
despite the reject-all restriction. With this change, 312 executions
reached the same ordering and every add_key() call failed with -EPERM.
The issue was found by manual concurrency analysis assisted by AI-based
analysis and independently verified with a QEMU reproducer and kernel
instrumentation. |

Bluetooth: hci_sock: Serialize dead-device detachment
Rebinding an HCI socket after its controller is unregistered can race
monitor control replay and crash the kernel. hci_sock_bind() clears
hci_pi(sk)->hdev and drops the device reference under only the socket
lock, whereas send_monitor_control_replay() holds hci_sk_list.lock for
reading.
Replay can observe a non-NULL hdev, then bind can clear it and drop the
last reference before create_monitor_ctrl_open() reads hdev->id. This
can cause a NULL pointer dereference if the pointer is reloaded, or a
use-after-free if the old pointer is retained.
The kernel reported:
KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000068-0x000000000000006f]

The same missing serialization lets hci_send_to_sock() select a socket
for the old device and queue its frame after bind has detached the socket
or installed a new binding.
Take hci_sk_list.lock for writing when clearing the device pointer and
resetting the socket state. This waits for existing replay and delivery
readers to finish before detachment and prevents later readers from
using the old binding. Keep hci_dev_put() outside the critical section
because the final device release can sleep. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: RFCOMM: connect the session socket without rfcomm_mutex
An RFCOMM connect() issued while a BR/EDR link is being authenticated
makes lockdep report a circular dependency, and the reported cycle is a
real AB/BA between rfcomm_mutex and hdev->lock.
rfcomm_security_cfm() is called from the HCI event path, which already
holds hdev->lock:
hci_rx_work()
hci_event_packet()
hci_cc_read_enc_key_size() [hdev->lock]
hci_encrypt_cfm() [hci_cb_list_lock]
rfcomm_security_cfm() [rfcomm_mutex]
while an RFCOMM connect() from userspace takes the same two locks the
other way round:
rfcomm_sock_connect()
rfcomm_dlc_open() [rfcomm_mutex]
__rfcomm_dlc_open()
rfcomm_session_create()
kernel_connect()
l2cap_sock_connect()
l2cap_chan_connect() [hdev->lock]
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
kworker/u131:1/1128 is trying to acquire lock:
rfcomm_mutex, at: rfcomm_security_cfm+0x31/0x3e0 [rfcomm]
but task is already holding lock:
hci_cb_list_lock, at: hci_cc_read_enc_key_size+0x1d2/0xcc0
Chain exists of:
rfcomm_mutex --> &hdev->lock --> hci_cb_list_lock
hci_auth_complete_evt() and hci_encrypt_change_evt() reach the callback
the same way.
Both orders have to be seen in the same boot, which is why a BR/EDR
connection alone is not enough to show it: a session set up by the
remote side is created by rfcomm_accept_connection() in krfcommd, which
calls kernel_accept() and never takes hdev->lock under rfcomm_mutex.
Connecting a device that authenticates and encrypts the link and then
calling connect() on an RFCOMM socket towards any address - the connect
does not have to succeed, the order is recorded before the page timeout
- reports it every time.
Only the session socket has to be connected with the lock held, and it
does not: nothing else can see the socket before it is put on the
session list. So connect it first and take rfcomm_mutex afterwards,
which removes the rfcomm_mutex -> hdev->lock order for good, rather
than keeping the HCI event path out of rfcomm_mutex.
rfcomm_session_create() becomes rfcomm_session_connect(), which returns
the connected socket without touching the session list, and
rfcomm_dlc_open() adds the session once it holds the lock again. If
another opener added a session for the same pair while this socket was
connecting, that session is used and this socket is dropped.
__rfcomm_dlc_open() now takes the session it should use, and its state
check runs after the lock is re-acquired, so a DLC that was opened or
closed in the meantime is still handled.
Over an existing ACL link the connection can complete before the
session reaches the list, and the wakeup from the socket callback is
then lost, so krfcommd is woken once the session is visible.
Connecting without the lock opens a window in which the socket can be
closed. The DLC is not on a session yet, so rfcomm_dlc_close() finds
nothing to do and returns without touching it, and rfcomm_dlc_open()
would then attach a DLC whose owner is gone. rfcomm_dlc_close() now
marks such a DLC with RFCOMM_CLOSED, and rfcomm_dlc_open() checks the
mark once it holds rfcomm_mutex again and drops the socket instead of
attaching the DLC. The mark is cleared when an open starts, so a DLC
that is reused is not affected. This covers both callers of
rfcomm_dlc_open(), the socket and the tty layer. |

drm/i915/gt: Unmask interrupts only when ACTIVE is true
There is a small race window between intel_rps_boost() reading
a stale ACTIVE state and queuing rps->work, where ACTIVE may be
changed via asynchronous calls triggered by wakeref drop.
This means that rps_work() could be triggered after the GT has
been parked, so unmasking RPS PM interrupts would happen without
holding PM wakelock. This sequence of events may be observed
during live_rc6_ctx_wa() selftest:
1) live_rc6_ctx_wa()
-> intel_engine_pm_put()
-> wakeref_put()
ASYNC1) wakeref_put() callback
-> __engine_park()
-> intel_gt_pm_put_async()
-> intel_gt_pm_put_async_untracked()
-> intel_wakeref_put_async()
ASYNC2) wakeref_put_async() callback
-> __gt_park()
-> intel_rps_park()
-> intel_rps_clear_active() [clear ACTIVE]
WITH INTERRUPTS:
-> rps_disable_interrupts()
-> cancel_work_sync(rps->work)
-> rps_reset_interrupts() [rps->pm_iir = 0]
WITHOUT INTERRUPTS (TIMER mode):
-> rps_stop_timer()
-> cancel_work_sync(rps->work)
2) live_rc6_ctx_wa()
-> intel_gt_wait_for_idle()
-> intel_gt_retire_requests_timeout()
-> dma_fence_wait_timeout()
-> ops->wait() [i915_fence_wait()]
-> i915_request_wait_timeout()
-> intel_rps_boost()
-> intel_rps_is_active() [check ACTIVE]
[OPEN RACE WINDOW]
-> queue_work(rps->work)
-> retire_requests()
-> i915_request_retire()
-> intel_rps_dec_waiters() [from 1 to 0]
If ASYNC1 and ASYNC2 would execute during [OPEN RACE WINDOW],
then:
3) rps_work() executes from the workqueue and may satisfy
"(!pm_iir && !client_boost)" test (in TIMER mode rps->pm_iir
is zeroed by an earlier rps_work() call or never gets a new
value after previous intel_rps_unpark() event), so it jumps
to "out" label, bypassing intel_rps_is_active() guard and
executes gen6_gt_pm_unmask_irq();
4) GT is parked and runtime PM wakelock is dropped, so only
a raw reference in __gt_park() ->
intel_display_power_put_async() remains for 100ms, then the
MMIO write in gen6_gt_pm_unmask_irq() detects missing
wakelock via assert_rpm_wakelock_held() and emits
"RPM wakelock ref not held during HW access" tainting kernel.
Commit 3e7abf814193 ("drm/i915: Extract GT render power state management")
dropped the "if (rps->interrupts_enabled)" guard that
gen6_pm_rps_work() had around this unmask in i915_irq.c.
INTEL_RPS_ACTIVE brackets the same window, since it is set in
intel_rps_unpark() before rps_enable_interrupts() and
rps_start_timer() and cleared in intel_rps_park() before
rps_stop_timer() and rps_disable_interrupts().
Skip unmasking when RPS is no longer active (reaching unmask
operation is independent of INTERRUPT mode). This does not
prevent RPS operation from resuming on the next unpark.
In interrupt mode, intel_rps_unpark() calls
rps_enable_interrupts(), which enables and unmasks the PM
interrupts. In timer mode, it calls rps_start_timer(),
restarting periodic engine-busyness evaluation. The timer
generates software RPS events and queues rps_work() directly,
independently of PM interrupt delivery. Neither mode requires
the late worker to unmask interrupts while the GT is parked

perf: Fix race between perf_event_exit_task() and perf_pending_task()
A race condition exists between perf_event_exit_task() and
perf_pending_task() during begin_new_exec().
During begin_new_exec(), perf_event_exit_task() may be called, and the
PF_EXITING flag is not set on task. So perf_sigtrap() continues to execute

Since both task exit and exec paths can call perf_event_exit_task() which

event->ctx->task equals TASK_TOMBSTONE and dropping the redundant
PF_EXITING check. |

tty: fix saved termios reset race
Resetting saved termios state on device registration is needed where a
minor number can be reused for an entirely different device and where
the old settings may prevent the port from even being opened (e.g. when
CLOCAL is not set).
Not all TTY drivers guarantee that the minor number is no longer in use
when registering devices however, something which can lead to a
use-after-free when closing a TTY (and saving its termios) races with
re-registration.
Add a new TTY_DRIVER_RESET_SAVED_TERMIOS flag to request that any saved
termios state is reset on registration and only set it for drivers that
make sure that the minor number is no longer in use. |

Bluetooth: hci_core: Fix queuing tx_work after workqueue is drained
hci_send_acl(), hci_send_sco() and hci_send_iso() queue hdev->tx_work
unconditionally. They can run from the L2CAP/SCO/ISO socket send path
while hci_dev_close_sync() is draining hdev->workqueue (HCIDEVDOWN
racing with a socket write). Since that queue_work() is not chained
work from the tx_work worker itself, __queue_work() sees the queue
marked __WQ_DRAINING, warns "cannot queue %ps on wq %s", and drops
the work:
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 5985 at kernel/workqueue.c:2352 __queue_work
Call Trace:
queue_work_on
l2cap_chan_send
l2cap_sock_sendmsg
...
hci_dev_close_sync() already sets HCI_CMD_DRAIN_WORKQUEUE before
draining, but only hci_cmd_work() and handle_cmd_cnt_and_timer()
check it before queuing. Route the tx_work producers through the
same guard via a shared hci_sched_tx() helper. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cgroup/cpuset: Make nr_deadline_tasks an atomic_t
The nr_deadline_tasks variable in the cpuset structure was introduced by
commit 6c24849f5515 ("sched/cpuset: Keep track of SCHED_DEADLINE task
in cpusets"). It is reported by sashiko [1] that nr_deadline_tasks
can currently be modified by inc_dl_tasks_cs() under rq->lock and
by cpuset_attach() under cpuset_mutex. So if both updates happen
simultaneously, the nr_deadline_tasks variable can be corrupted leading
to incorrect operations down the road.
Fix that by changing its type to atomic_t so that nr_deadline_tasks
are always atomically updated. This fix patch is a low hanging fruit.
It can handle some of the races between a concurrent sched_setscheduler()
and cpuset_can_attach()/cpuset_attach() calls, but not all of them like
the other issue raised by sashiko [2]. This will be handled hopefully
in a future follow up patch.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Avoid IDR updates while cleaning channels
scmi_cleanup_channels() walks the TX/RX channel IDRs with
idr_for_each() to free transport resources and destroy the dedicated
transport devices before calling idr_destroy().
The destroy callback removed each entry from the same IDR being walked.
That is not needed for this cleanup path, and it is unsafe because
idr_for_each() has not advanced its radix-tree iterator while the
callback is running. Removing the current entry from the callback can
invalidate the iterator state. The callback also cannot be protected by
rcu_read_lock(), because scmi_device_destroy() may sleep.
Leave IDR teardown to the following idr_destroy() call and keep the
callback limited to device destruction. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Fix requested device removal race
scmi_protocol_device_unrequest() drops scmi_requested_devices_mtx while
notifying listeners but continues to retain the per-protocol list head.
When two SCMI drivers for the same protocol unregister concurrently, one
thread can remove the final request and free the list head while the other
is running its notifier. The latter then dereferences the freed list head
after reacquiring the mutex and can free it a second time.
Complete the list and IDR updates, including freeing an empty list head,
before dropping the mutex. Keep the blocking notifier outside the critical
section and retain only the detached request across the callback. |
