| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
parisc: Fix random data corruption from exception handler
The current exception handler implementation, which assists when accessing
user space memory, may exhibit random data corruption if the compiler decides
to use a different register than the specified register %r29 (defined in
ASM_EXCEPTIONTABLE_REG) for the error code. If the compiler choose another
register, the fault handler will nevertheless store -EFAULT into %r29 and thus
trash whatever this register is used for.
Looking at the assembly I found that this happens sometimes in emulate_ldd().
To solve the issue, the easiest solution would be if it somehow is
possible to tell the fault handler which register is used to hold the error
code. Using %0 or %1 in the inline assembly is not posssible as it will show
up as e.g. %r29 (with the "%r" prefix), which the GNU assembler can not
convert to an integer.
This patch takes another, better and more flexible approach:
We extend the __ex_table (which is out of the execution path) by one 32-word.
In this word we tell the compiler to insert the assembler instruction
"or %r0,%r0,%reg", where %reg references the register which the compiler
choosed for the error return code.
In case of an access failure, the fault handler finds the __ex_table entry and
can examine the opcode. The used register is encoded in the lowest 5 bits, and
the fault handler can then store -EFAULT into this register.
Since we extend the __ex_table to 3 words we can't use the BUILDTIME_TABLE_SORT
config option any longer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix data corruption in dsync block recovery for small block sizes
The helper function nilfs_recovery_copy_block() of
nilfs_recovery_dsync_blocks(), which recovers data from logs created by
data sync writes during a mount after an unclean shutdown, incorrectly
calculates the on-page offset when copying repair data to the file's page
cache. In environments where the block size is smaller than the page
size, this flaw can cause data corruption and leak uninitialized memory
bytes during the recovery process.
Fix these issues by correcting this byte offset calculation on the page. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: stmmac: protect updates of 64-bit statistics counters
As explained by a comment in <linux/u64_stats_sync.h>, write side of struct
u64_stats_sync must ensure mutual exclusion, or one seqcount update could
be lost on 32-bit platforms, thus blocking readers forever. Such lockups
have been observed in real world after stmmac_xmit() on one CPU raced with
stmmac_napi_poll_tx() on another CPU.
To fix the issue without introducing a new lock, split the statics into
three parts:
1. fields updated only under the tx queue lock,
2. fields updated only during NAPI poll,
3. fields updated only from interrupt context,
Updates to fields in the first two groups are already serialized through
other locks. It is sufficient to split the existing struct u64_stats_sync
so that each group has its own.
Note that tx_set_ic_bit is updated from both contexts. Split this counter
so that each context gets its own, and calculate their sum to get the total
value in stmmac_get_ethtool_stats().
For the third group, multiple interrupts may be processed by different CPUs
at the same time, but interrupts on the same CPU will not nest. Move fields
from this group to a newly created per-cpu struct stmmac_pcpu_stats. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
thermal: intel: hfi: Add syscore callbacks for system-wide PM
The kernel allocates a memory buffer and provides its location to the
hardware, which uses it to update the HFI table. This allocation occurs
during boot and remains constant throughout runtime.
When resuming from hibernation, the restore kernel allocates a second
memory buffer and reprograms the HFI hardware with the new location as
part of a normal boot. The location of the second memory buffer may
differ from the one allocated by the image kernel.
When the restore kernel transfers control to the image kernel, its HFI
buffer becomes invalid, potentially leading to memory corruption if the
hardware writes to it (the hardware continues to use the buffer from the
restore kernel).
It is also possible that the hardware "forgets" the address of the memory
buffer when resuming from "deep" suspend. Memory corruption may also occur
in such a scenario.
To prevent the described memory corruption, disable HFI when preparing to
suspend or hibernate. Enable it when resuming.
Add syscore callbacks to handle the package of the boot CPU (packages of
non-boot CPUs are handled via CPU offline). Syscore ops always run on the
boot CPU. Additionally, HFI only needs to be disabled during "deep" suspend
and hibernation. Syscore ops only run in these cases.

ip6_tunnel: make sure to pull inner header in __ip6_tnl_rcv()
syzbot found __ip6_tnl_rcv() could access unitiliazed data [1].
Call pskb_inet_may_pull() to fix this, and initialize ipv6h
variable after this call as it can change skb->head.

mm: huge_memory: don't force huge page alignment on 32 bit
commit efa7df3e3bb5 ("mm: align larger anonymous mappings on THP
boundaries") caused two issues [1] [2] reported on 32 bit system or compat
userspace.
It doesn't make too much sense to force huge page alignment on 32 bit
system due to the constrained virtual address space.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/vfio-ap: always filter entire AP matrix
The vfio_ap_mdev_filter_matrix function is called whenever a new adapter or
domain is assigned to the mdev. The purpose of the function is to update
the guest's AP configuration by filtering the matrix of adapters and
domains assigned to the mdev. When an adapter or domain is assigned, only
the APQNs associated with the APID of the new adapter or APQI of the new
domain are inspected. If an APQN does not reference a queue device bound to
the vfio_ap device driver, then it's APID will be filtered from the mdev's
matrix when updating the guest's AP configuration.
Inspecting only the APID of the new adapter or APQI of the new domain will
result in passing AP queues through to a guest that are not bound to the
vfio_ap device driver under certain circumstances. Consider the following:
guest's AP configuration (all also assigned to the mdev's matrix):
14.0004
14.0005
14.0006
16.0004
16.0005
16.0006
unassign domain 4
unbind queue 16.0005
assign domain 4
When domain 4 is re-assigned, since only domain 4 will be inspected, the
APQNs that will be examined will be:
14.0004
16.0004
Since both of those APQNs reference queue devices that are bound to the
vfio_ap device driver, nothing will get filtered from the mdev's matrix
when updating the guest's AP configuration. Consequently, queue 16.0005
will get passed through despite not being bound to the driver. This
violates the linux device model requirement that a guest shall only be
given access to devices bound to the device driver facilitating their
pass-through.
To resolve this problem, every adapter and domain assigned to the mdev will
be inspected when filtering the mdev's matrix. |

netfilter: nf_tables: adapt set backend to use GC transaction API
Use the GC transaction API to replace the old and buggy gc API and the
busy mark approach.
No set elements are removed from async garbage collection anymore,
instead the _DEAD bit is set on so the set element is not visible from
lookup path anymore. Async GC enqueues transaction work that might be
aborted and retried later.
rbtree and pipapo set backends does not set on the _DEAD bit from the
sync GC path since this runs in control plane path where mutex is held.
In this case, set elements are deactivated, removed and then released
via RCU callback, sync GC never fails. |

TIPC bearer-related names including link names must be null-terminated
strings. If a link name which is not null-terminated is passed through
netlink, strstr() and similar functions can cause buffer overrun. This
causes the above issue.
This patch changes the nla_policy for bearer-related names from NLA_STRING
to NLA_NUL_STRING. This resolves the issue by ensuring that only
null-terminated strings are accepted as bearer-related names.
syzbot reported similar uninit-value issue related to bearer names [2]. The
root cause of this issue is that a non-null-terminated bearer name was
passed. This patch also resolved this issue. |

Below is a similar scenario, the scenario in the syzbot log looks more
complicated than this one, but this patch can fix it.
T21124 p9_read_work
======================== second trans =================================
p9_client_walk
p9_client_rpc
p9_client_prepare_req
p9_tag_alloc
req = kmem_cache_alloc(p9_req_cache, GFP_NOFS);
tag = idr_alloc
<< preempted >>
req->tc.tag = tag;
/* req->[refcount/tag] == uninitialized */
m->rreq = p9_tag_lookup(m->client, m->rc.tag);
/* increments uninitalized refcount */
refcount_set(&req->refcount, 2);
/* cb drops one ref */
p9_client_cb(req)
/* reader thread drops its ref:
request is incorrectly freed */
p9_req_put(req)
/* use after free and ref underflow */
p9_req_put(req)
To fix it, we can initialize the refcount to zero before add to idr. |

mm/hugetlb: avoid corrupting page->mapping in hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte
In MCOPY_ATOMIC_CONTINUE case with a non-shared VMA, pages in the page
cache are installed in the ptes. But hugepage_add_new_anon_rmap is called
for them mistakenly because they're not vm_shared. This will corrupt the
page->mapping used by page cache code. |

fbdev: defio: fix the pagelist corruption
Easily hit the below list corruption:

list_add corruption. prev->next should be next (ffffffffc0ceb090), but
was ffffec604507edc8. (prev=ffffec604507edc8).

Figure out the race happens when one process is adding &page->lru into
the pagelist tail in fb_deferred_io_mkwrite(), another process is
re-initializing the same &page->lru in fb_deferred_io_fault(), which is
not protected by the lock.
This fix is to init all the page lists one time during initialization,
it not only fixes the list corruption, but also avoids INIT_LIST_HEAD()
redundantly.

NFSv4: Fix free of uninitialized nfs4_label on referral lookup.
Send along the already-allocated fattr along with nfs4_fs_locations, and
drop the memcpy of fattr. We end up growing two more allocations, but this
fixes up a crash as:
