| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: fix addr_wq_timer race in sctp_free_addr_wq()
sctp_free_addr_wq() previously removed addr_wq_timer using timer_delete()
while holding addr_wq_lock. However, timer_delete() does not guarantee that
a currently running timer handler has completed.
This allows a race with sctp_addr_wq_timeout_handler(), where the handler
may still run after addr_waitq has been freed, acquire addr_wq_lock, and
access freed memory, leading to a use-after-free.
Fix this by calling timer_shutdown_sync() before taking addr_wq_lock. This
guarantees that any in-flight timer handler has finished and prevents the
timer from being re-armed during teardown, making subsequent cleanup safe. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: bcm: defer rx_op deallocation to workqueue to fix thrtimer UAF
Commit f1b4e32aca08 ("can: bcm: use call_rcu() instead of costly
synchronize_rcu()") replaced synchronize_rcu() in bcm_delete_rx_op()
with call_rcu() and introduced the RX_NO_AUTOTIMER flag.
However, this flag check was omitted for thrtimer in the packet rx
fast-path. During BCM RX operation teardown, a concurrent RCU reader
(bcm_rx_handler) can race and re-arm thrtimer via
bcm_rx_update_and_send() after call_rcu() has been scheduled. Once
the RCU grace period elapses, bcm_op is freed. The subsequently
firing thrtimer then dereferences the deallocated op, causing a UAF.
Adding flag checks to the rx fast-path (bcm_rx_update_and_send) does not
fully close the TOCTOU race and introduces latency for every CAN frame.
Conversely, calling hrtimer_cancel() directly inside the RCU callback
(softirq context) is fatal as hrtimer_cancel() can sleep, triggering
a "scheduling while atomic" panic.
Resolve this by deferring the timer cancellation and memory free to a
dedicated unbound workqueue (bcm_wq). The RCU callback now queues a
work item to bcm_wq, which safely cancels both timers and deallocates
memory in sleepable process context. A dedicated workqueue is used to
prevent system-wide WQ saturation and is cleanly flushed/destroyed
on module unload to avoid rmmod page faults.
Since the deferred work can now outlive the calling context by an
unbounded amount, also take a reference on op->sk when it is assigned
and drop it only once the deferred work has cancelled both timers, so a
socket can no longer be freed out from under a still-armed timer whose
callback (bcm_send_to_user()) dereferences op->sk. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: Fix xfrm state cache insertion race
The xfrm input state cache insertion code checks the validity of
the state before acquiring the global xfrm_state_lock. Thus it's
possible for someone else to kill the state after it passed the
validity check, and then the insertion will add the dead state
to the cache.
Fix this by moving the validity check inside the lock.
This entire function is called on the input path, where BH must
be off (e.g., the caller of this function xfrm_input acquires
its spinlocks without disabling BH).
So there is no need to disable BH here or take the RCU read lock.
Remove both and replace them with an assertion that trips if BH
is accidentally enabled on some future calling path. |

ASoC: SOF: ipc4-control: Fix TOCTOU in sof_ipc4_bytes_put
In sof_ipc4_bytes_put(), the copy size is derived from the old
data->size in the buffer rather than the incoming new data's size
field from ucontrol. If the new data has a different size, the copy
uses the wrong length: it may truncate valid data or copy stale bytes.
Fix by validating and using the incoming data's sof_abi_hdr.size from
ucontrol before copying. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vhost: fix vhost_get_avail_idx for a non empty ring
vhost_get_avail_idx is supposed to report whether it has updated
vq->avail_idx. Instead, it returns whether all entries have been
consumed, which is usually the same. But not always - in
drivers/vhost/net.c and when mergeable buffers have been enabled, the
driver checks whether the combined entries are big enough to store an
incoming packet. If not, the driver re-enables notifications with
available entries still in the ring. The incorrect return value from
vhost_get_avail_idx propagates through vhost_enable_notify and causes
the host to livelock if the guest is not making progress, as vhost will
immediately disable notifications and retry using the available entries.
This goes back to commit d3bb267bbdcb ("vhost: cache avail index in
vhost_enable_notify()") which changed vhost_enable_notify() to compare
the freshly read avail index against vq->last_avail_idx instead of the
previously cached vq->avail_idx. Commit 7ad472397667 ("vhost: move
smp_rmb() into vhost_get_avail_idx()") then carried over the same
comparison when refactoring vhost_enable_notify() to call the unified
vhost_get_avail_idx().
The obvious fix is to make vhost_get_avail_idx do what the comment
says it does and report whether new entries have been added. |

i3c: mipi-i3c-hci: Fix race in i3c_hci_addr_to_dev()
i3c_hci_addr_to_dev() walks bus->devs.i3c, which is protected by
bus.lock (rwsem). However, it is invoked from the MIPI I3C HCI IRQ
handler, which cannot take bus.lock. This allows concurrent device
addition/removal in the I3C core to modify the list while it is being
traversed, potentially leading to use-after-free or crashes.
Remove the dependency on the bus device list and introduce a dedicated
lookup table. Add an ibi_devs[] array indexed by DAT entry, maintained
under hci->lock. Update the array when IBIs are enabled or disabled,
so that it always reflects the set of devices allowed to generate IBIs.
Also update when IBIs are freed, to cover the corner case when an IBI is
freed without first being disabled (e.g. oldedev in
i3c_master_add_i3c_dev_locked()).
Move i3c_hci_addr_to_dev() into core.c, reimplement it using the new
array, and add a lockdep assertion to enforce that hci->lock is held
by callers.
Demote a message in PIO and DMA IBI handling, from an error to a debug
message, because there is a race window when the condition can arise
normally. |
| 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. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vfio/qat: fix f_pos race in qat_vf_resume_write()
qat_vf_resume_write() checks filp->f_pos before taking migf->lock, but
copies into the migration-state buffer after taking the lock and
re-reading the shared file position.
Two concurrent writers could therefore pass the bounds check with the
old offset, then have the second writer copy after the first advanced
f_pos, writing past the end of the migration-state buffer.
Take migf->lock before doing the boundary checks. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kernfs: fix xattr race condition with multiple superblocks
Multiple superblocks with different namespaces can share the same
kernfs_node when kernfs_test_super() finds a matching root but
different namespace. This means multiple inodes from different
superblocks can reference the same kernfs_node->iattr->xattrs
structure.
The VFS layer only holds per-inode locks during xattr operations,
which is insufficient to serialize concurrent xattr modifications on
the shared kernfs_node. This can lead to race conditions in
simple_xattr_set() where the lookup->replace/remove sequence is not
atomic with respect to operations from other superblocks.
Fix this by protecting xattr operations with the existing hashed
kernfs_locks->open_file_mutex[] array, which is already used to
protect per-node open file data. The hashed mutex array provides
scalable per-node serialization (scaled by CPU count, up to 1024 locks
on 32+ CPU systems) with zero memory overhead.
Changes:
- Rename open_file_mutex[] to node_mutex[] to reflect dual purpose
- Add kernfs_node_lock_ptr() and kernfs_node_lock() helpers
- Protect simple_xattr_set() calls in kernfs_xattr_set() and
kernfs_vfs_user_xattr_set() with the hashed mutex
- Update file.c to use new helpers via compatibility wrappers
- Update documentation to explain the extended lock usage |

Bluetooth: ISO: avoid deadlocks in iso_sock_timeout
iso_sock_timeout() takes lock_sock, so sync disabling the timer while
holding that lock may deadlock.
iso_sock_timeout() may also run concurrently with iso_conn_del(), which
leads to UAF
[Task 1] [Task hdev->workqueue]
iso_sock_timeout iso_conn_del
iso_conn_hold_unless_zero iso_chan_del
`------------> iso_conn_put
caller frees hcon
iso_conn_put
iso_conn_free
conn->hcon->iso_data = NULL; /* UAF */
Fix the deadlock by removing the disable from the lock_sock sections.
Move the timer from iso_conn to iso_pinfo to decouple it from iso_conn
which may need to be freed in lock_sock section. Convert some of the
clear_timer to disable_timer. |

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]
iso_conn_del iso_chan_del
iso_conn_hold_unless_zero iso_conn_lock
iso_conn_lock conn->sk = NULL
iso_conn_unlock
sk = iso_sock_hold(conn) <---------ยด
if (!sk) iso_conn_put iso_conn_put
iso_conn_put /* UAF */
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. |

Bluetooth: ISO: fix race of kfree vs kref_get_unless_zero
hci_conn::iso_data is accessed and modified without lock or RCU.
This leads to a race
[Task hdev->workqueue] [Task 2]
iso_recv iso_conn_put(conn)
conn = LOAD hcon->iso_data iso_conn_free(conn)
iso_conn_hold_unless_zero(conn) hcon->iso_data = NULL
kfree(conn)
kref_get_unless_zero(&conn->ref) /* UAF */
and also to races in iso_conn_add() vs. iso_conn_free().
Fix by adding spinlock hci_conn::proto_lock and using it to guard
hci_conn::iso_data. |

KVM: arm64: vgic: Fix race between LPI release and re-registration
Fix a potential race between decrementing an LPI's reference count and
evicting that structure from the LPI xarray.
LPI structures are maintained in the VGIC LPI xarray (dist->lpi_xa).
When the reference count of an LPI structure drops to zero,
vgic_release_lpi_locked() removes the structure from the xarray and
frees it under the xarray lock.
However, the release of an LPI can race with a concurrent LPI
re-registration with the same INTID via vgic_add_lpi() on another CPU,
since the reference count drop and the xarray eviction are not performed
in a single atomic step. This can happen e.g. if the guest issues a
DISCARD while the LPI is still referenced from a vCPU's active-pending
list (ap_list), and the same INTID is re-mapped via MAPTI.
Particularly, vgic_release_lpi_locked() is called from two distinct
paths: direct release via vgic_put_irq(), and deferred release via
vgic_release_deleted_lpis(). During direct release, the issue can result
in deleting a newly registered LPI from the xarray:
CPU0 (Releasing LPI) CPU1 (Adding new LPI)
==================== =====================
vgic_put_irq()
__vgic_put_irq()
refcount_dec_and_test()
vgic_add_lpi()
xa_lock_irqsave()
old_irq = xa_load(.., intid)
vgic_try_get_irq_ref(old_irq) == false
new IRQ inserted --> __xa_store(.., intid, ..)
xa_unlock_irqrestore()
xa_lock_irqsave();
vgic_release_lpi_locked()
__xa_erase(.., irq->intid) <-- BUG: new IRQ is erased
kfree_rcu(old_irq)
During the deferred release path, the old IRQ can be leaked:
CPU0 (Releasing LPI) CPU1 (Adding new LPI)
==================== =====================
vgic_put_irq_norelease()
__vgic_put_irq()
refcount_dec_and_test()
irq->pending_release = true
vgic_add_lpi()
xa_lock_irqsave()
old_irq = xa_load(.., intid)
vgic_try_get_irq_ref(oldirq) == false
BUG: old IRQ overwritten --> __xa_store(.., intid, ..)
xa_unlock_irqrestore()
vgic_release_deleted_lpis()
xa_lock_irqsave()
xa_for_each() { .. } <-- old IRQ with pending_release = true
is gone, so it cannot be released
To fix the direct release path, move the reference count drop inside
the xarray lock, making sure that vgic_add_lpi() never encounters the
to-be-released LPI.
In the deferred release path, the refcount drop must happen under a raw
spinlock, so the xarray lock cannot be grabbed, and the same solution
does not work. Instead, update vgic_add_lpi(), so that if it evicts
an LPI from the xarray, it takes on the responsibility of freeing it.
Consequently, an LPI may now be freed concurrently after a deferred
release drops the refcount, so accessing the pending_release field is no
longer safe from use-after-free. Delete all uses of the flag, and update
vgic_release_deleted_lpis() to identify orphaned LPIs purely based on
their refcount. |
