| Null pointer dereference issue in the image codec module. Impact: Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may affect availability. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix invalid pointer dereference in __btrfs_run_delayed_refs()
In the beginning of the loop, we try to obtain a locked delayed ref head,
if 'locked_ref' is currently NULL, by calling btrfs_select_ref_head(),
which can return an error pointer. If the error pointer is -EAGAIN we do
a continue and go back to the beginning of the loop, which will not try
again to call btrfs_select_ref_head() since 'locked_ref' is no longer
NULL but it's ERR_PTR(-EAGAIN), and then we do:
spin_lock(&locked_ref->lock);
against a ERR_PTR(-EAGAIN) value, generating an invalid pointer
dereference.
Fix this by ensuring that 'locked_ref' is set to NULL when
btrfs_select_ref_head() returns ERR_PTR(-EAGAIN) and incrementing 'count'
as well, to prevent infinite looping. We do this by doing a goto to the
bottom of the loop that already sets 'locked_ref' to NULL and does a
cond_resched(), with an increment to 'count' right before the goto.
These measures were in place before the refactoring in commit 0110a4c43451
("btrfs: refactor __btrfs_run_delayed_refs loop") but were unintentionally
lost afterwards. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: seq: midi: Serialize output teardown with event_input
event_process_midi() borrows msynth->output_rfile.output and then
passes the substream to dump_midi() and snd_rawmidi_kernel_write()
without synchronizing with the output open/close transition.
midisynth_use() also publishes output_rfile before
snd_rawmidi_output_params() has finished.
The last midisynth_unuse() can therefore release the same rawmidi file
and free substream->runtime before snd_rawmidi_kernel_write1() takes
its runtime buffer reference. That leaves the event_input path using a
stale substream or runtime and can end in a NULL-deref or use-after-free.
Fix this with two pieces of synchronization. Keep a short IRQ-safe
spinlock only for publishing or clearing output_rfile and for pairing
the output snapshot with an snd_use_lock_t reference. Once
event_process_midi() has taken that in-flight reference, it drops the
spinlock before calling snd_seq_dump_var_event(), dump_midi(), or
snd_rawmidi_kernel_write(). midisynth_unuse() now detaches the visible
rawmidi file under the same spinlock, waits for the in-flight writers
to drain, and only then drains and releases the saved file.
midisynth_use() likewise opens into a local snd_rawmidi_file and
publishes it only after snd_rawmidi_output_params() succeeds.
The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the
order within that path:
event_input path: last unuse path:
1. event_process_midi() snapshots 1. midisynth_unuse() starts
output_rfile.output. tearing down output_rfile.
2. dump_midi() reaches 2. snd_rawmidi_kernel_release()
snd_rawmidi_kernel_write() closes the output file.
before runtime is pinned. 3. close_substream() frees
3. The callback keeps using substream->runtime.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rxrpc: rxrpc_verify_data ensure rx_dec_buffer alloc
rxrpc_recvmsg_data() calls rxrpc_verify_data() whenever the
rxrpc_call.rx_dec_buffer is unallocated and assumes that upon
successful return that rx_dec_buffer must be allocated.
However, rxrpc_verify_data() does not request an allocation if
the rxrpc_skb_priv.len is zero.
In addition, failure to allocate rx_dec_buffer will result in a
call to skb_copy_bits() with a NULL destination which can
trigger a NULL pointer dereference.
To prevent these issues rxrpc_verify_data() is modified to
always attempt to allocate the rxrpc_call.rx_dec_buffer if it
is NULL.
This issue was identified with assistance of a private
sashiko instance. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: ISO: lock sk in iso_connect_ind
Accessing iso_pi(sk)->conn requires lock_sock, which is not taken in the
"ev3" part of iso_connect_ind. It may also be NULL if socket has
transitioned away from the LISTEN/CONNECT states before locking.
Fix by adding lock/release. Recheck hcon is valid after lock acquire
where needed. |

crypto: ccp - Check for page allocation failure correctly in TIO
Sashiko notes:
> if __snp_alloc_firmware_pages() returns NULL under memory pressure, is it

>
> On architectures without HASHED_PAGE_VIRTUAL, page_address(NULL) might

Indeed, page_address(NULL) will return non-NULL garbage here. Fix this by
checking the page allocation itself for NULL, not the resulting virtual
address. |

virtio: rtc: tear down old virtqueues before restore
virtio_device_restore() resets the device and restores the negotiated
features before calling ->restore(). viortc_freeze() intentionally
leaves the existing virtqueues in place so the alarm queue can still
wake the system, but viortc_restore() immediately calls
viortc_init_vqs() without first deleting those old queues.
If virtqueue reinitialization fails on virtio-pci, the transport error
path can run vp_del_vqs() against a newly allocated vp_dev->vqs array
while vdev->vqs still contains the old virtqueues. vp_del_vqs() then
looks up queue state through the new array and can dereference a NULL
info pointer in vp_del_vq(), crashing the guest kernel during restore.
This can also happen during a non-faulty reinitialization, when one of
the vp_find_vqs_msix() attempts is unsuccessful before a later attempt
would succeed.
Delete the stale virtqueues before rebuilding them. If restore fails
before virtio_device_ready(), reuse the remove path to stop the device.
Once the device is ready, return errors directly instead of deleting the
virtqueues again. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
afs: handle CB.InitCallBackState3 requests without a server record
The cache manager callback path now attaches the server record to an
incoming call through the rxrpc peer's app data. That association is
not guaranteed to exist for every callback request, and most callback
handlers already tolerate that case.
Make CB.InitCallBackState3 follow the same pattern by checking whether a
server record was attached before using it. If the peer is not mapped
to a server record, trace the request and ignore it, matching the
existing behaviour for other unmatched callback requests.
This keeps the callback handler consistent with the rest of the cache
manager service and avoids depending on peer state that may not be
available for a given request. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/arm-smmu-v3-iommufd: Require exactly one Stream ID for a vDEVICE
arm_vsmmu_vsid_to_sid() maps a guest's vSID to a single physical Stream ID
taken from master->streams[0], assuming a device has exactly one stream. A
device with several streams gets only its first one mapped, so a guest vSID
invalidation cannot reach the others' ATC and IOTLB entries; a device with
none makes master->streams a ZERO_SIZE_PTR, read out of bounds.
Add an arm_vsmmu_vdevice_init() op to reject the vDEVICE with -EOPNOTSUPP
when master->num_streams is not one, rather than mapping it silently. |

rxrpc: Fix the reception of a reply packet before data transmission
Fix rxrpc_receiving_reply() to handle the reception of an apparent reply
DATA packet before rxrpc has had a chance to send any request DATA packets
on a client call by checking to see if the call has been exposed yet by
sending the first packet.
Without this, rxrpc_rotate_tx_window() might oops.
Also fix rxrpc_rotate_tx_window() to handle the Tx queue being empty by
changing the do...while loop into a while loop, just in case a call is
abnormally terminated by an early reply before the last request packet is
transmitted. |

rxrpc: Fix ACKALL packet handling
rxrpc_input_ackall() accepts ACKALL packets without checking whether the
call is in a state that can legitimately have outstanding transmit buffers.
A forged ACKALL can therefore reach a new service call in
RXRPC_CALL_SERVER_RECV_REQUEST before any reply packets have been queued.
In that state call->tx_top is zero and call->tx_queue is NULL, so
rxrpc_rotate_tx_window() dereferences a NULL txqueue and triggers a
null-pointer dereference.
Fix the handling of ACKALL packets by the following means:
(1) Add two new call states: RXRPC_CALL_CLIENT_PRE_SEND which indicates
that the client call is connected, but nothing has been transmitted as
yet; and RXRPC_CALL_CLIENT_AWAIT_ACK, which indicates that everything
has been transmitted at least once, but we're now waiting for the
stuff remaining in the Tx buffer to be ACK'd (retransmissions may
still happen).
The RXRPC_CALL_CLIENT_PRE_SEND state is set when the call is assigned
a channel and transitions to RXRPC_CALL_CLIENT_SEND_REQUEST when the
first packet is transmitted.
RXRPC_CALL_CLIENT_AWAIT_REPLY is then narrowed in scope to indicate
that all Tx packets have been ACK'd and we're now waiting for the
reply to be received.
(2) As per Wyatt Feng's original patch[1], the ACKALL handler then checks
that the call state is one in which there might be stuff in the Tx
buffer to ACK, but now this includes AWAIT_ACK rather than
AWAIT_REPLY. ACKALL packets are ignored if received in the wrong
state.
Note that unlike Wyatt Feng's patch, it's no longer necessary to check
to see if the Tx buffer exists as this the state set now covers this.
(3) Make the ACKALL handler use call->tx_transmitted rather than
call->tx_top as the former is explicitly the highest packet seq number
transmitted, whereas the latter has a looser definition.

packet[1]. |

fhandle: reject detached mounts in capable_wrt_mount()
The recent fhandle RCU fix moved the mount namespace capability check
into capable_wrt_mount(), so a non-NULL mnt_namespace survives the
ns_capable() dereference. The helper still assumes the later
READ_ONCE(mount->mnt_ns) must be non-NULL because may_decode_fh()
checked is_mounted() first.
That assumption is not stable. A detached mount from
open_tree(..., OPEN_TREE_CLONE) can be dissolved on fput while
open_by_handle_at() is between those checks, and umount_tree() can
clear mount->mnt_ns. If the helper observes NULL, it dereferences
mnt_ns->user_ns and panics.
Return false when the RCU read observes a detached mount. This keeps
the relaxed permission path conservative: a mount no longer attached
to a namespace cannot authorize open_by_handle_at() access. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: skip global block reserve accounting for rescue mounts
[BUG]
Mounting with rescue=ibadroots after corrupting the block group tree
root triggers a NULL pointer dereference:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000100
RIP: 0010:btrfs_update_global_block_rsv+0x9d/0x1c0 [btrfs]
Call Trace:
fill_dummy_bgs+0xd4/0x120 [btrfs]
open_ctree+0xc6e/0x1ca0 [btrfs]
btrfs_get_tree+0x50d/0xa40 [btrfs]
The same crash occurs with a corrupted raid stripe tree root, via
btrfs_read_block_groups() instead of fill_dummy_bgs().
[CAUSE]
With rescue=ibadroots, btrfs_read_roots() allows the mount to continue
when either root cannot be read, leaving the corresponding root pointer
NULL while its on-disk feature bit remains set.
btrfs_update_global_block_rsv() then dereferences the missing root based
on the feature bit alone.
[FIX]
Rescue mounts are fully read-only and cannot start transactions, so the
global reserve is never consumed. Under btrfs_is_full_ro(), mark the
reserve as full and return before performing the accounting.
And since we need to check if the fs is mount fully RO, export
fs_is_full_ro() as btrfs_is_full_ro(), and move it to fs.h.
[ Squash the fs_is_full_ro() export commit into this one. ] |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
of/address: Fix NULL bus dereference in of_pci_range_parser_one()
The bus matching rework made of_match_bus() return NULL for nodes with
ranges/dma-ranges but no local #address-cells. parser_init() stored that
NULL bus, and the range iterator later dereferenced it.
Reject such nodes in parser_init(), leaving an explicit empty
iterator for callers that ignore the init return, and make
of_dma_get_max_cpu_address() honour the init failure so a rejected node
cannot clamp the DMA limit. |

drm/vmwgfx: reject DX_BIND_QUERY without a DX context
vmw_cmd_dx_bind_query() unconditionally dereferences
sw_context->dx_ctx_node->ctx. Userspace can trigger a NULL pointer
dereference from any render-node fd by submitting an execbuf with
dx_context_handle == SVGA3D_INVALID_ID and a SVGA_3D_CMD_DX_BIND_QUERY
opcode in the command stream: dx_ctx_node is left NULL and the kernel
oopses on the assignment. The same NULL is then re-read in
vmw_resources_reserve() via vmw_context_get_dx_query_mob().
All sibling DX handlers fail-close on a missing dx_ctx_node using
VMW_GET_CTX_NODE(). Use the same pattern here, returning -EINVAL up
front before any relocation state is published. |
