| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/9p: fix race condition on rdma->state in trans_rdma.c
The rdma->state field is modified without holding req_lock in both
recv_done() and p9_cm_event_handler(), while rdma_request() accesses
the same field under the req_lock spinlock. This inconsistent locking
creates a race condition:
- recv_done() running in softirq completion context sets
rdma->state = P9_RDMA_FLUSHING without acquiring req_lock
- p9_cm_event_handler() modifies rdma->state at multiple points
(ADDR_RESOLVED, ROUTE_RESOLVED, ESTABLISHED, CLOSED) without
req_lock
- rdma_request() uses spin_lock_irqsave(&rdma->req_lock, flags) to
protect the read-modify-write of rdma->state
The race can cause lost state transitions: recv_done() or the CM
event handler could set state to FLUSHING/CLOSED while rdma_request()
is concurrently checking or modifying state under the lock, leading to
the FLUSHING transition being silently overwritten by CLOSING. This
corrupts the connection state machine and can cause use-after-free on
RDMA request objects during teardown.
Fix by adding req_lock protection to all rdma->state modifications in
recv_done() and p9_cm_event_handler(), matching the pattern already
used in rdma_request(). Use spin_lock_irqsave/spin_unlock_irqrestore
in the CM event handler since it can race with recv_done() which runs
in softirq context.
Tested with a kernel module that races two threads (simulating
rdma_request and recv_done/CM handler) on rdma->state with proper
locking: 5.5M+ FLUSHING writes over 27M iterations with 0 lost
transitions. |

mm/slab: prevent unbounded recursion in free path with new kmalloc type
Commit 280ea9c3154b ("mm/slab: avoid allocating slabobj_ext array from
its own slab") avoided recursive allocation of obj_exts from kmalloc
caches of the same size, by bumping the obj_exts array's allocation
size whenever the array size equals the size of the object being
allocated.
However, as reported by Danielle Costantino and Shakeel Butt,
even slabs from kmalloc caches of different sizes can form a cycle
by allocating obj_exts arrays from each other [1]:
What happened: a KMALLOC_NORMAL slab's obj_exts array (used by
allocation profiling / memcg accounting) is itself kmalloc()'d from a
KMALLOC_NORMAL cache, so the "slab holds another slab's obj_exts array"
relation can form cycles. With sizeof(struct slabobj_ext) == 16 and
the host's geometry:
- kmalloc-512 has 64 objects/slab -> array is 64*16 == 1024 bytes,
served from kmalloc-1k;
- kmalloc-1k has 32 objects/slab -> array is 32*16 == 512 bytes,
served from kmalloc-512.
A kmalloc-512 slab and a kmalloc-1k slab therefore hold each other's
obj_exts array. Discarding one frees the other's array, which empties
and discards that slab, which frees the first's array, and so on:
__free_slab() -> free_slab_obj_exts() -> kfree() -> discard_slab() ->
__free_slab() recurses along the cycle until the stack is exhausted.
With memory allocation profiling, this allows unbounded recursion
in the free path and led to a stack overflow on a production host in
the Meta fleet [1]:
BUG: TASK stack guard page was hit

do_syscall_64
It is proposed [1] to resolve this issue by always serving the obj_exts
array allocation from kmalloc caches (or large kmalloc) of sizes larger
than the object size. However, as pointed out by Vlastimil Babka [2],
this can waste an excessive amount of memory as slabs from large
kmalloc sizes (e.g. kmalloc-8k) generally need obj_exts arrays much
smaller than the object size.
Therefore, rather than bumping the size, let us take a different
approach; disallow formation of cycles between kmalloc types when
allocating obj_exts arrays. Currently, all obj_exts arrays are served
from normal kmalloc caches. Cycles cannot be created if obj_exts arrays
of normal kmalloc caches are served from a special kmalloc type that can
never have obj_exts arrays.
To achieve this, create a new kmalloc type called KMALLOC_NO_OBJ_EXT.
KMALLOC_NO_OBJ_EXT caches are created with SLAB_NO_OBJ_EXT flag when
either 1) memory allocation profiling is not permanently disabled,
or 2) kmalloc types with a priority higher than KMALLOC_CGROUP are
aliased with KMALLOC_NORMAL.
Sheaf bootstrapping for KMALLOC_NO_OBJ_EXT caches now must be deferred
because allocation of a barn can trigger obj_exts array allocation of
normal kmalloc caches when the KMALLOC_NO_OBJ_EXT cache for that size
is not ready yet. For simplicity, perform bootstrapping of sheaves for
all kmalloc caches later.
Introduce a new slab alloc flag, SLAB_ALLOC_NO_OBJ_EXT, to prevent
allocation of obj_exts arrays, and let kmalloc_slab() override the type
to KMALLOC_NO_OBJ_EXT when specified. Note that kmalloc_type() remains
unchanged because kmalloc_flags() bypasses the kmalloc fastpath.
Do not pass SLAB_ALLOC_NO_RECURSE to kmalloc_flags() in
alloc_slab_obj_exts() and instead use SLAB_ALLOC_NO_OBJ_EXT only when
the objects are allocated from normal kmalloc caches. While this
prevents unbounded recursive allocation of obj_exts, it allows
KMALLOC_NO_OBJ_EXT caches to have sheaves.
Since sheaf allocations specify SLAB_ALLOC_NO_RECURSE that prevents
allocation of both sheaves and obj_exts arrays, the recursion depth
is bounded.

cxl/region: Resolve region deletion races
Sungwoo noticed that the sysfs trigger to delete a region may try to delete
a region multiple times. It also has no exclusion relative to the kernel
releasing the region via CXL root device teardown.
Instead of installing new cxl root devres actions per region, use the
existing root decoder unregistration event to remove all remaining regions.
An xarray of regions replaces a devres list of regions.
This handles 3 separate issues with the old approach:
1/ sysfs users racing to delete the same region: no longer possible now
that the regions_lock is held over the lookup and deletion.
2/ multiple actions triggering deletion of the same region: solved by
erasing regions while holding @regions_lock, and only proceeding on
successful erasure.
3/ userspace racing devres_release_all() to trigger the devres not found

i2c: jz4780: Cache host clock rate at probe to prevent CCF prepare_lock deadlock
Fix a severe AB/BA deadlock between the Common Clock Framework (CCF)
and the I2C adapter lock, which triggers when an I2C-controlled clock
generator client (like the Si5351) is registered or modified under the CCF.
During an i2c client clock (generator) frequency change, the CCF acquires its global
'prepare_lock' mutex and the driver calls i2c_transfer() to update the client's
chip registers, stalling for the adapter's I2C bus lock.
Concurrently, an independent, parallel transfer on the same bus (e.g., a GPIO
expander handling LEDs) can hold the I2C adapter lock. Inside this parallel
transfer path, jz4780_i2c_set_speed() calls clk_get_rate() on the host
controller's input clock to calculate bus timings. This call attempts to acquire
the blocked CCF 'prepare_lock', creating a circular dependency that freezes
the system.
The jz4780 host controller clock itself is static and never changes at runtime.
However, calling clk_get_rate() inside the active transfer path introduces
an unnecessary dependency on the CCF internal locks.
Eliminate this synchronous clk_get_rate() call from the active transfer
path by caching the static host peripheral clock rate once - inside the private
jz4780_i2c structure during jz4780_i2c_probe(). Update jz4780_i2c_set_speed()
to use this cached value, safely decoupling active I2C transactions from the
CCF internal locks without any risk of stale timings.

mm/hugetlb: fix list corruption in allocate_file_region_entries()
allocate_file_region_entries() tops up resv->region_cache with freshly
allocated file_region descriptors. The allocation uses GFP_KERNEL, so
resv->lock is dropped around it: the new entries are gathered on a
stack-local list head, allocated_regions, and spliced into
resv->region_cache once the lock is re-acquired.
The splice used list_splice(), which moves the entries but does not
re-initialize the source head, so allocated_regions is left pointing at an
entry that now lives on resv->region_cache. The top-up runs in a while
loop that re-checks the cache deficit after re-acquiring the lock. For a
shared mapping the resv_map is shared by every mapper of the hugetlbfs
inode, so a concurrent region_chg()/region_add()/region_del() on the same
resv_map can consume cache entries during the unlocked window and force a
second iteration. That iteration calls list_add() on the stale head and
corrupts the list; with CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST the __list_add_valid() check
trips:
list_add corruption. next->prev should be prev (ffffc900011ff7f8),
but was ffff88814c281460. (next=ffff88814c545640).

Without CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST the bad list_add() silently links a kernel-stack

This was observed as a real host panic on a dense KVM host where a QEMU
guest-RAM hugetlbfs file was mapped MAP_SHARED by both QEMU and a separate
SPDK/DPDK vhost-user target, generating concurrent region_* traffic on one
shared resv_map.
Use list_splice_init() so the source head is re-initialized empty after
each splice, making the retry loop safe. |

riscv: mm: Fix out-of-bounds page-table walk during memory hot-remove
remove_pud_mapping() and remove_p4d_mapping() obtain a child table base
with pud_offset(p4dp, 0) and p4d_offset(pgd, 0), then add the index for
addr.
RISC-V folds page-table levels at runtime. When a level is folded, its
offset helper returns the parent entry itself, but the index can still be
nonzero. Adding it walks past the parent table. Sv48 folds P4D, while Sv39
folds both P4D and PUD, so memory hot-remove can descend into unrelated
memory and pass an invalid page to __free_pages(). This can trigger:

The channel control index ctrl_idx is derived from rx->len which comes
directly from a device USB payload. The mask 0x0f allows values 0-15, but
the array size of usb_if->dev[] is only 2. Values 2-15 cause heap
out-of-bounds read, eventually causing kernel panic in the IRQ context.

s390/zcrypt: Close speculative mem read possibility
The domain value is extracted from a given CCA or EP11 ioctl struct

Under some special conditions (custom device node used, administrative
load) this value is used as an array index after bounds checking, but
without speculation barrier.

execution where this domain value is used. |

Bluetooth: ISO: fix refcounting of iso_conn
iso_conn_del() and iso_chan_del() have a race that results to double-put
of iso_conn:
[Task hdev->workqueue] [Task 2]

The extra put for !sk in iso_conn_del() is currently required since
failing iso_chan_add() may leave iso_conn not associated with any sk.
Fix by having iso_pi(sk)->conn own refcount when non-NULL, so
iso_conn_del does not need to put it. Adjust the iso_conn_add()
refcounting so that conn is put if it does not get associated with an
sk. |

sockmap: Fix use-after-free in udp_bpf_recvmsg()
syzbot reported use-after-free of struct sk_msg in sk_msg_recvmsg(). [0]
sk_msg_recvmsg() peeks sk_msg from psock->ingress_msg under a lock,
but its processing is lockless.
Thus, sk_msg_recvmsg() must be serialised by callers, otherwise
multiple threads could touch the same sk_msg.
For example, TCP uses lock_sock(), and AF_UNIX uses unix_sk(sk)->iolock.
Initially, udp_bpf_recvmsg() had used lock_sock(), but the cited
commit removed it.
Let's serialise sk_msg_recvmsg() with lock_sock() in udp_bpf_recvmsg().
Note that holding spin_lock_bh(&sk->sk_receive_queue.lock) is not
an option due to copy_page_to_iter() in sk_msg_recvmsg().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: seq: avoid stale FIFO cells during resize
snd_seq_fifo_resize() still needs to publish the replacement pool
before it waits for FIFO users. A blocking snd_seq_read() holds
f->use_lock while it sleeps, so concurrent senders must be able to
queue to the new pool and wake that reader instead of failing against a
closing old pool.
However, snd_seq_fifo_event_in() duplicates an event before it takes
f->lock, and snd_seq_read() can dequeue a cell and later call
snd_seq_fifo_cell_putback() if copy_to_user() or
snd_seq_expand_var_event() fails. If resize swaps f->pool and detaches
oldhead in between, either path can relink an old-pool cell after the
snapshot. That stale cell sits outside the drained oldhead list, keeps
oldpool->counter elevated, and can leave snd_seq_pool_delete() waiting
for the retired pool to drain.
Keep the existing swap-before-wait ordering in snd_seq_fifo_resize(),
but reject stale cells before any FIFO relink. Revalidate event-in cells
under f->lock and retry them against the published replacement pool, and
free stale putback cells instead of linking them back into the FIFO.
The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the
order within that path:
resize path: relink path:
1. Allocate newpool. 1. Take f->use_lock.
2. Swap f->pool to newpool and 2. Duplicate or dequeue an old-pool
detach oldhead. cell before oldpool closes.
3. Mark oldpool closing and 3. Reach a later relink point after
wait for FIFO users. resize published newpool.
4. Free oldhead and delete 4. Relink the old-pool cell after
oldpool. resize detached oldhead.
5. Drop f->use_lock.
The reproducer reports a resize ioctl blocked in the expected pool

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: watchdog: fix refcount tracking races
Blamed commit converted the untracked dev_hold()/dev_put() calls
in the watchdog code to use the tracked dev_hold_track()/dev_put_track()
(which were later renamed/interfaced to netdev_hold() and netdev_put()).
By introducing dev->watchdog_dev_tracker to store the
reference tracking information without adding synchronization
between netdev_watchdog_up() and dev_watchdog(), it enabled the
race condition where this pointer could be overwritten or freed
concurrently, leading to the list corruption crash syzbot reported:
list_del corruption, ffff888114a18c00->next is NULL

This patch has three coordinated parts:
1) Add dev->watchdog_lock and dev->watchdog_ref_held to serialize watchdog operations.
2) Remove netdev_watchdog_up() call from netif_carrier_on():
This ensures netdev_watchdog_up() is only called from process/BH context
(via linkwatch workqueue dev_activate()), allowing us to use
spin_lock_bh() for synchronization.
3) Synchronize watchdog up and watchdog timer:
Protect netdev_watchdog_up() with tx_global_lock and watchdog_lock.
Only allocate a new tracker in netdev_watchdog_up() if one is
not already present.
In dev_watchdog(), ensure we don't release the tracker if the
timer was rescheduled either by dev_watchdog() itself or concurrently
by netdev_watchdog_up(). |
