| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dma-buf/dma-fence: fix checking signaling bit for timeline and driver name v3
The patch "dma-buf: dma-fence: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference"
changed the check to test for the ops pointer instead of the signaled
bit to avoid a potential NULL dereference when the ops pointer has been
cleared.
The problem is now that the ops pointer is cleared only when neither the
release nor the wait callback is implemented and this isn't true for a lot
of dma_fence implementations yet. So those implementations lost the RCU
protection after signaling of the returned string resulting in potential
use after free.
Add the signaling check additional to the ops pointer check so that we
have both the protection against NULL dereference as well as the RCU
protection after signaling for the returned string.
v2: improve comments to note RCU protection and explain why we check
both signaling state and ops pointer
v3: some comment improvements suggested by Philip |

signal: Prevent exec() race
Hyunwoo debugged the following KASAN UAF splat:

begin_new_exec+0xa6b/0x28c0
It turned out that this happens with a non-leader exec() as Hyunwoo
explained:
de_thread() calls exchange_tids() before release_task(leader), so the
struct pid held by a SIGEV_THREAD_ID timer created against the leader's tid
now points to the thread which called execve(). pid_task() returns that
thread and lock_task_sighand() on it succeeds.
If the timer signal is blocked, its sigqueue stays queued on the leader's
task::pending. The next expiry of that timer can then run while
release_task() flushes the queue.
posixtimer_send_sigqueue() checks whether the sigqueue is already queued
with a plain list_empty(), which only reads list_head::next.
list_del_init() is not atomic and INIT_LIST_HEAD() stores list_head::next
before list_head::prev, so the check can pass in between. list_add_tail()
queues the entry on the task::pending of the live thread, and the
list_head::prev store from the flush then overwrites the list_head::prev
link that list_add_tail() has just set.
__flush_itimer_signals() does not undo that either. With list_head::prev
pointing at the entry itself, its list_del_init() only stores the same
values again, so the entry is not removed from the list. It is still there
after the last reference is dropped and the timer is freed by RCU, and the
list_add_tail() of a later tgkill() follows that list_head::prev into the
freed timer.
This problem surfaced with the recent commit which moved the sigqueue flush
out of the sighand lock held region.
Hyonwoo proposed to fix this by using list_del_init_careful(), but that
just papers over the problem. After some disucssions and various attempts
to solve it, Eric pointed out that there is no reason to flush
task::pending late in release_task() and it should be done in
exit_signals() already.
As nothing can collect and deliver signals which are queued in a dying
task's pending queue, there is no reason to delay it further.
But it has to be ensured that no signals can be queued into it after that
point. exit_signals() sets PF_EXITING in task::flags, which can be used as
an indicator for this.
Cure it by:
- Preventing signal queueing for task private signals (PIDTYPE_PID) when
the task has PF_EXITING set in __send_signal_locked() and in
posixtimer_send_sigqueue().
- Protecting the unlocked setting of PF_EXITING in exit_signals() for the
task group empty and the group exit case with sighand lock
- Flushing task::pending signals right there.
Optimize that by moving the whole pending list to an on-stack list head
under sighand lock and free the signals without the lock held.
There has been quite some discussion about the lockless flush and the
non-leader exec case on weakly ordered systems. The problem is that a third
party which tries to send a posix timer signal relies on the PID lookup to
find the target task and that lookup might result in the new leader when
the signal was originaly directed to the old leader. In case that the
signal was queued on the old leader then the lockless flush raised a
concern over the following situation:
old_leader new_leader third party
A: flush_list() // list_del_in

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: flowtable: hold reference on ct until flow is released
nf_ct_put() releases the ct->ext area inmediately, the rcu typesafe
semantics also allow to refer to the wrong conntrack from the flowtable
datapath. Hold reference on ct until flow is released after rcu grace

Add rcu_barrier() on module exit path, to ensure pending flow entries
are release before module goes away. |

Bluetooth: hci_sync: Serialize local codec list cleanup
hci_dev_close_sync() clears hdev->local_codecs after releasing hdev->lock.
Codec list additions and both traversals in sco_sock_getsockopt() use that
lock, but the close path does not. A close and BT_CODEC query can therefore
interleave as follows:
hci_dev_close_sync() sco_sock_getsockopt()
hci_dev_lock()
fetch codec entry
hci_codec_list_clear()
kfree(entry)
read entry->id
The reader then accesses an entry which the close path has freed. KASAN

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: save input state data before secpath resets
xfrm_input() stores the current xfrm_state in the skb secpath while it
continues receive-side processing. Some input paths can reset that secpath
before xfrm_input() has finished dereferencing the state.
Receive callback users such as VTI and XFRM interfaces can reset the
secpath. The VTI receive path does so before checking whether the packet
crosses network namespaces, while the XFRM interface path does so only for
cross-network-namespace packets. The XFRM_MAX_DEPTH error path can also
reset the secpath before the final drop callback reports the current
state's protocol.
If secpath_reset() drops the last state reference while the state is
concurrently deleted, xfrm_input() can still dereference the freed state
when selecting transport_finish() or reporting the drop callback protocol.
Save the state protocol on the stack while the state is still valid,
and use the already saved address family for transport_finish(). A larval
XFRM_STATE_ACQ state has no type, so retain nexthdr as its protocol. This
preserves the existing drop-path fallback while avoiding the post-reset
state dereferences without adding an extra state reference to every
received packet. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
IB/mlx4: Fix use-after-free on pkey sysfs registration failure
register_pkey_tree() ignores errors from register_one_pkey_tree() and
continues registering the remaining slaves. The per-slave error path has
already released the pkey parent kobjects, but their pointers remain
stored in the device. A later device cleanup therefore passes the stale
pointers to kobject_put(), causing a use-after-free.
Clear the parent pointers after releasing a failed slave tree and skip
unregistered trees during device cleanup. This preserves the existing
best-effort registration behavior while preventing a second cleanup of
the failed tree. |

drm/ttm: fix swapped-out resources never leaving their bulk_move range
ttm_tt_swapout() returns the number of pages swapped out on success and
a negative error code on failure; for a populated ttm it never returns
zero. Commit b2ed01e7ad3d ("drm/ttm: Fix ttm_bo_swapout() infinite LRU
walk on swapout failure") moved the bulk_move bookkeeping in
ttm_bo_swapout_cb() under "if (!ret)", so the
ttm_resource_del_bulk_move_unevictable() / ttm_resource_move_to_lru_tail()
pair is now skipped on every successful swapout. The equivalent change
for the shrinker in commit 1d59f36e95f7 ("drm/ttm: Fix ttm_bo_shrink()
infinite LRU walk on backup failure") tests "lret > 0", which is what
was intended here as well.
Before b2ed01e7ad3d the resource was taken off the bulk_move before the
swapout; since then a swapped-out resource stays inside its BO's
bulk_move range (and on the manager LRU) although it is unevictable.
When it is later freed or the BO leaves the bulk_move
(ttm_resource_free(), ttm_bo_set_bulk_move() via amdgpu_vm_bo_del()),
ttm_resource_del_bulk_move() skips it because of its
!ttm_resource_unevictable() guard, so a range endpoint in pos->first /
pos->last is left pointing at freed memory. The next
ttm_lru_bulk_move_tail() or ttm_resource_add_bulk_move() on that cursor
is a use-after-free, seen as the resv WARN in ttm_lru_bulk_move_add(),
"list_del corruption" in ttm_resource_move_to_lru_tail() or a NULL
dereference in ttm_resource_manager_next() -- minutes to hours after a
hibernation, or at process exit / reboot following one. Samuel
Ainsworth's analysis of drm/amd issue 5387 (see Link) identified the
dangling cursor; the missing removal at swapout time is the reason it
dangles.
Testing the condition for success restores the removal. On an AMD
Phoenix APU (ASUS UM3406GA, gfx1103) running suspend-then-hibernate on
a 7.0.y stable kernel carrying the backport (Ubuntu 7.0.0-31) the bug
crashed 5 of 18 hibernation cycles; a function profile of one
hibernation showed 336 ttm_tt_swapout() calls and zero
ttm_resource_del_bulk_move_unevictable() calls. With this change the
removal happens for every swapped-out resource and 12 further cycles
were clean. |

xfrm: serialize state GC with device state flush
The deferred-device pass in xfrm_dev_state_flush() finds states under
xfrm_state_dev_gc_lock, but drops the lock before calling
xfrm_dev_state_free() because the driver callback may sleep. The device
GC list does not hold an xfrm_state reference, so the state GC worker can
destroy the same state concurrently.
The race can proceed as follows:
CPU 0 CPU 1
find x on the device GC list
drop xfrm_state_dev_gc_lock
read x->xso.dev
xfrm_state_gc_destroy(x)
xfrm_dev_state_free(x)
xfrm_state_free(x)
continue xfrm_dev_state_free(x)
Both paths can invoke the driver callback and drop the device reference.
CPU 0 can also access the xfrm_state after CPU 1 has freed it.

xfrm: fix compat ALLOCSPI request use-after-free
xfrm_state_netlink() builds the ALLOCSPI response with
dump_one_state(), which already calls alloc_compat() with the response
skb and header.
xfrm_alloc_userspi() then calls alloc_compat() again, but passes the
original request skb and its header. For a compat request, the
translator therefore interprets the 228-byte compat xfrm_userspi_info
as the 232-byte native layout and reads four bytes past the declared
payload. It also publishes the translated child through the request's
frag_list.
A multicast clone of the request shares skb_shared_info and can observe
that child. xfrm_user_rcv_msg() frees it after the request handler
returns, racing a compat receiver which may still be copying from it and
resulting in a use-after-free.
Remove the redundant conversion. The response keeps its correct compat
translation from dump_one_state(), and no child is attached to the
inbound request. |
| auto-changelog before 2.6.1 merges configuration from inside the target repository (the .auto-changelog file and the auto-changelog key in package.json) into its options, and honors security-sensitive options from that untrusted source. The handlebarsSetup option is passed to require(), so running auto-changelog over attacker-controlled repository content (for example, in a CI workflow that checks out an untrusted pull request head, or locally on a forked or third-party repository) executes attacker-chosen code with the privileges of the invoking user or CI job, including access to workflow secrets, without the repository dependencies ever being installed. The plugins option similarly loads attacker-controlled modules from the repository. Under the same conditions, appendGitLog/appendGitTag allow git argument injection (e.g. --output= to write arbitrary files), output allows writing attacker-influenced content to arbitrary paths, and template causes an outbound request to an attacker-chosen URL. Version 2.6.1 treats in-repository configuration as untrusted and refuses to run when it sets these options, unless the new --unsafe-config flag is passed. |
| A flaw was found in SSSD. A use-after-free vulnerability exists in the Kerberos Credential Manager (KCM) responder during Kerberos ticket-granting ticket (TGT) renewal, where a deferred callback accesses memory that has already been released. An authenticated local user with a renewable Kerberos ticket can trigger this issue on systems configured with KCM renewal, causing the KCM responder service to crash and resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS). |
| DigitalCanion SA has discovered a vulnerability that allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of the product. Authentication may be required to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the Configuration → Services → Music on Hold functionality of the web portal listening on TCP port 443. The application is intended to allow users to upload WAV audio files but fails to properly validate the uploaded file type. An attacker can exploit this behavior to upload a malicious shared object (.so) instead of a WAV file. When the uploaded file is subsequently processed by the affected component, attacker-controlled code is loaded and executed in the context of the affected process. This can result in remote code execution and potentially full compromise of the underlying Linux system. |

x86/kprobes: Fix crash when probing CS CALL instructions
When using eBPF to probe CS CALL instructions within a function,
a crash can be triggered.
The eBPF tool probes offset 257 of the __hrtimer_run_queues()
function:
<__hrtimer_run_queues+249>: nopl 0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
<__hrtimer_run_queues+254>: mov %r14,%rdi
<__hrtimer_run_queues+257>: cs call <__x86_indirect_thunk_r12>
<__hrtimer_run_queues+263>: mov %eax,%r12d
<__hrtimer_run_queues+266>: xchg %ax,%ax
<__hrtimer_run_queues+268>: mov %r13,%rdi
Which triggers this crash:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 00000000000f41c9
#PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode
#PF: error_code(0x0002) - not-present page
PGD 0 P4D 0
Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP NOPTI
CPU: 1 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/1 Kdump: loaded Tainted: P
RIP: 0010:__hrtimer_run_queues+0x106/0x230
Note that __hrtimer_run_queues+0x106 is __hrtimer_run_queues+262, which is
at the 6th byte of the above CS CALL instruction. Since the CS CALL
instruction occupies 6 bytes, the exception occurred in the middle of that
call instruction.
The root cause is that when using eBPF tools to probe in the middle of a
function, a kprobe with INT3 is used as the underlying implementation.
During single-step emulation of the original CALL instruction,
int3_emulate_call() assumes that the probed CALL instruction is 5 bytes
long. However, the actual CS-prefixed CALL instruction occupies 6 bytes,
so it constructs an incorrect exception return address. When the CPU
returns from the kprobe handler, the next instruction to be executed is at
the address of the last byte of that CS CALL instruction. Coincidentally,
starting from that address, the CPU fetches and decodes a completely
different instruction, which ultimately triggers a kernel crash.
Fix the issue by using the actual instruction length obtained from
the instruction decoder when constructing the exception return
address, rather than relying on the hardcoded CALL_INSN_SIZE macro.

wifi: brcmsmac: fix UAF in brcms_free_timer()
brcms_free_timer() calls brcms_del_timer() which uses the non-synchronous
cancel_delayed_work() to cancel the timer's underlying delayed work. If
the work callback (_brcms_timer) is already running, cancel_delayed_work()
returns false without waiting, and brcms_free_timer() proceeds to kfree(t)
while the callback still accesses t through container_of().
Add an explicit cancel_delayed_work_sync() after brcms_del_timer() to
guarantee that any in-flight callback has completed before the timer
structure is freed. |
