KVM: x86/mmu: Fix use-after-free on vendor module reload
mmu_destroy_caches() destroys pte_list_desc_cache and
mmu_page_header_cache, but leaves both pointers unchanged. The pointers
live in kvm.ko, and therefore survive when a vendor module is unloaded
while kvm.ko remains loaded.
If creation of pte_list_desc_cache fails during a subsequent vendor
module load, its assignment sets pte_list_desc_cache to NULL and the
error path calls mmu_destroy_caches(). mmu_page_header_cache still
points to the cache destroyed during the preceding vendor module
unload. Passing that stale pointer to kmem_cache_destroy() causes a
slab use-after-free.
Reproduce the issue on a v7.1.3 kernel with CONFIG_KASAN=y,
CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC=y, CONFIG_KVM=m, and CONFIG_KVM_INTEL=m. A
one-shot test hook forces pte_list_desc_cache to NULL on the second
invocation of kvm_mmu_vendor_module_init():
1. Load kvm.ko and kvm-intel.ko, creating both caches.
2. Unload only kvm_intel, leaving kvm.ko loaded.
3. Reload kvm_intel and force initialization through the -ENOMEM path.

Clear both pointers immediately after destroying their caches so that

safe.
With the fix applied, the same injected vendor module reload fails with
-ENOMEM as expected and produces no KASAN report. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: rtl2832: fix use-after-free in rtl2832_remove()
cancel_delayed_work_sync() is called before i2c_mux_del_adapters()
in rtl2832_remove(). While the cancel waits for any running instance
of i2c_gate_work to finish, it does not prevent the timer from being
rescheduled by a concurrent thread.
During probe, the r820t_attach() call attempts I2C transfers through
the mux adapter. These transfers go through i2c_mux_master_xfer(),
which calls rtl2832_deselect() after the transfer completes,
rescheduling i2c_gate_work via schedule_delayed_work(). If this
transfer is still in flight when rtl2832_remove() runs,
rtl2832_deselect() can reschedule i2c_gate_work after it has been
cancelled, causing a use-after-free when kfree(dev) is called.
Fix this by calling i2c_mux_del_adapters() before
cancel_delayed_work_sync(). Once the mux adapter is unregistered, no
new I2C transfers can go through it, so rtl2832_deselect() can no
longer reschedule i2c_gate_work. The subsequent
cancel_delayed_work_sync() is then guaranteed to be final. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: avoid kobject path lookup in DualSense match
The DualSense jack-detection input handler verifies that a matching input
device belongs to the same physical controller by building kobject path
strings for both the input device and the USB audio device, then comparing
the path prefix.
This was observed when a weak physical connection caused the controller
to rapidly disconnect and reconnect. During that repeated hotplug,
snd_dualsense_ih_match() can run while the controller's USB device is
being disconnected. kobject_get_path() walks ancestor kobjects and
dereferences their names; if the USB device kobject name is no longer
valid, this can fault in strlen():
RIP: 0010:strlen+0x10/0x30
Call Trace:
kobject_get_path+0x34/0x150

input_register_device+0x566/0x6a0
ps_probe+0xb89/0x1590 [hid_playstation]
The same ownership check can be done without building kobject path
strings. The input device is parented below the HID device, USB interface
and USB device, so walking the input device parent chain and comparing
against the mixer USB device preserves the check without dereferencing
kobject names during disconnect. |

Bluetooth: MGMT: Fix UAF of hci_conn_params in add_device_complete
add_device_complete() runs from the hci_cmd_sync_work kworker, which
holds only hci_req_sync_lock and *not* hci_dev_lock. It calls
hci_conn_params_lookup() and then dereferences the returned object
(params->flags) without taking hci_dev_lock:
params = hci_conn_params_lookup(hdev, &cp->addr.bdaddr,
le_addr_type(cp->addr.type));
...
device_flags_changed(NULL, hdev, &cp->addr.bdaddr,
cp->addr.type, hdev->conn_flags,
params ? params->flags : 0);
hci_conn_params_lookup() walks hdev->le_conn_params and is documented to
require hdev->lock. A concurrent MGMT_OP_REMOVE_DEVICE
(remove_device()), which does run under hci_dev_lock, can call
hci_conn_params_free() to list_del() and kfree() the very object the
lookup returned, so the subsequent params->flags read touches freed
memory [0].
Hold hci_dev_lock() across the hci_conn_params_lookup() and the read of
params->flags (and the matching event emission) so the lookup result
cannot be freed by a concurrent remove_device() before it is used,
honouring the locking contract of hci_conn_params_lookup().

kfree+0x1b7/0x540
rcu_core+0x3f8/0x7a0
The problem happens when there is a pending TX worker running in
parallel with the cleanup path.
This is what happens on netpoll shutdown path:
1) __netpoll_cleanup() is called
2) set dev->npinfo to NULL
3) call_rcu() with rcu_cleanup_netpoll_info()
3.1) rcu_cleanup_netpoll_info() tries to cancel all workers with
cancel_delayed_work(), but doesn't wait for the worker to finish
4) and kfree(npinfo);
Because 3.1) doesn't really cancel the work, as the comment says "we
can't call cancel_delayed_work_sync here, as we are in softirq", the TX
worker can run after 4).
Tl;DR: queue_process() is not an RCU reader, it reaches npinfo through
the work item via container_of().
Use disable_delayed_work_sync() to ensure the worker is completely
stopped and prevent any future re-arming attempts. Once npinfo is set
to NULL, senders will bail out and not queue new work. The disable flag
ensures any in-flight re-arming attempts also fail silently.
In the future, we can do the cleanup inline here without needing the
npinfo->rcu rcu_head, but that is net-next material. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: letsketch: fix UAF on inrange_timer at driver unbind
letsketch_driver does not provide a .remove callback, but
letsketch_probe() arms a per-device timer:
timer_setup(&data->inrange_timer, letsketch_inrange_timeout, 0);
The timer is re-armed from letsketch_raw_event() with a 100 ms
timeout on every pen-in-range report, and its callback dereferences
data->input_tablet to deliver a synthetic BTN_TOOL_PEN release.
letsketch_data is allocated with devm_kzalloc(), and its input_dev
fields are devm-allocated via letsketch_setup_input_tablet(). On
device unbind (USB unplug or rmmod), the HID core runs its default
teardown and devm cleanup frees both letsketch_data and the input
devices. Because no .remove callback exists, nothing drains the
timer first: if raw_event armed it within ~100 ms of the unbind,
the pending timer fires on freed memory. This is a UAF read of
data and of data->input_tablet, followed by input_report_key() /
input_sync() into the freed input_dev.
The same problem can occur on the probe error path: if
hid_hw_start() enabled I/O on an always-poll-quirk device and then
failed, raw_event may have armed the timer before devm releases
data.
Fix by adding a .remove callback that calls hid_hw_stop() first.
hid_hw_stop() synchronously kills the URBs that deliver raw_event(),
so once it returns no path can re-arm the timer. timer_shutdown_sync()
then drains any in-flight callback and permanently disables further
mod_timer() calls. Apply the same timer_shutdown_sync() in the probe
error path so the timer is guaranteed not to outlive data. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: appleir: fix UAF on pending key_up_timer in remove()
appleir_remove() runs hid_hw_stop() before timer_delete_sync().
hid_hw_stop() synchronously unregisters the HID input device via
hid_disconnect() -> hidinput_disconnect() -> input_unregister_device(),
which drops the last reference and frees the underlying input_dev when
no userspace handle holds it open.
key_up_tick() reads appleir->input_dev and calls input_report_key() /
input_sync() on it. The timer is armed from appleir_raw_event() with
a HZ/8 (~125 ms) timeout on every keydown and key-repeat report. If a
key was pressed shortly before the device is disconnected, the timer
can fire after hid_hw_stop() has freed input_dev but before the
teardown drains it.
A simple reorder is not sufficient. Putting the timer drain first
still leaves a window where a USB URB completion (raw_event) running
during hid_hw_stop() can call mod_timer() and re-arm the timer, which
then fires after hidinput_disconnect() has freed input_dev. The same
URB-completion window also lets raw_event() reach key_up(), key_down()
and battery_flat() directly, all of which dereference
appleir->input_dev.
Introduce a 'removing' flag on struct appleir, gated by the existing
spinlock. appleir_remove() sets the flag under the lock and then
shuts down the timer with timer_shutdown_sync(), which both drains any
in-flight callback and permanently disables further mod_timer() calls.
appleir_raw_event() and key_up_tick() bail out early if the flag is
set, so no path can arm or run the timer, or dereference
appleir->input_dev, after remove() has started tearing down.
The keyrepeat and flatbattery branches of appleir_raw_event()
previously called into the input layer without holding the spinlock;
take it now so the flag check is well-defined. This incidentally
closes a pre-existing read-side race on appleir->current_key in the
keyrepeat branch.
This bug is structurally a sibling of commit 4db2af929279 ("HID:
appletb-kbd: fix UAF in inactivity-timer cleanup path") and has been
present since the driver was introduced. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: lg-g15: cancel pending work on remove to fix a use-after-free
lg_g15_data is allocated with devm and holds a work item. The report
handlers schedule that work straight from device input.
lg_g15_event() and lg_g15_v2_event() do it on the backlight cycle key,
and lg_g510_leds_event() does it too. The worker dereferences the
lg_g15_data back through container_of.
The driver had no remove callback and never cancelled the work. So if a
report scheduled the work and the keyboard was then unplugged, devres
freed lg_g15_data while the work was still pending or running, and the
worker touched freed memory. This is a use-after-free. It is reachable
as a race on device unplug.
Add a remove callback that cancels the work before devres frees the
state. g15->work is only initialized for the models that schedule it
(G15, G15 v2, G510). The G13 and Z-10 leave it zeroed, so guard the
cancel on g15->work.func to avoid cancelling a work that was never set
up. The g15 NULL test mirrors the one already in lg_g15_raw_event(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Allow LPM map access from sleepable BPF programs
trie_lookup_elem() annotates its rcu_dereference_check() walks with
only rcu_read_lock_bh_held(). Because rcu_dereference_check(p, c)
resolves to "c || rcu_read_lock_held()", this passes for XDP/NAPI and
classic RCU readers but fails for sleepable BPF programs, which enter
via __bpf_prog_enter_sleepable() and hold only rcu_read_lock_trace().
trie_update_elem() and trie_delete_elem() have the same problem in a
different form: they walk the trie with plain rcu_dereference(), which
asserts rcu_read_lock_held() unconditionally. Both are reachable from
sleepable BPF programs via the bpf_map_update_elem / bpf_map_delete_elem
helpers, and from the syscall path under classic rcu_read_lock(). In
the writer paths the trie is actually protected by trie->lock (an
rqspinlock taken across the walk); we never relied on the RCU read-side
lock to keep nodes alive there.
A sleepable LSM hook that ends up touching an LPM trie therefore
triggers lockdep on debug kernels:
=============================
WARNING: suspicious RCU usage

This is lockdep-only -- no UAF, since Tasks Trace RCU does serialize
against the trie's reclaim path -- but it spams the console once per
distinct callsite on every debug kernel running a sleepable BPF LSM
that touches an LPM trie, which is increasingly common.
For the lookup path, switch the rcu_dereference_check() annotation
from rcu_read_lock_bh_held() to bpf_rcu_lock_held(), which accepts all
three contexts (classic, BH, Tasks Trace). Other map types already
follow this convention.
For trie_update_elem() and trie_delete_elem(), annotate the walks as
rcu_dereference_protected(*p, 1) -- matching trie_free() in the same
file -- since trie->lock is held across the walk. rqspinlock has no
lockdep_map, so the predicate degenerates to '1' rather than
lockdep_is_held(&trie->lock); the protection is real but not
machine-verifiable. trie_get_next_key() also uses bare
rcu_dereference() but is reachable only from the BPF syscall, which
holds classic rcu_read_lock() before dispatching, so it is left
untouched. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: free iso schedules on failed submit
EHCI and FOTG210 isochronous submits build an ehci_iso_sched before
linking the URB to the endpoint queue, and keep the staged schedule in
urb->hcpriv until iso_stream_schedule() and the link helpers consume it.
If the controller is no longer accessible, or usb_hcd_link_urb_to_ep()
fails, submit jumps to done_not_linked before that handoff happens and
leaks the staged schedule still attached to urb->hcpriv.
Free the staged schedule from done_not_linked when submit fails before
the URB is linked and clear urb->hcpriv after the free.
The bug was first flagged by an experimental analysis tool we are
developing for kernel memory-management bugs while analyzing
v6.13-rc1. The tool is still under development and is not yet publicly
available. Manual inspection confirms that the bug is still
present in v7.1.1.
An x86_64 allyesconfig build showed no new warnings. As we do not have an
EHCI host controller with a USB isochronous device to test with, no
runtime testing was able to be performed. |

usb: gadget: udc: Fix use-after-free in gadget_match_driver
The udc structure acts as the management structure for the gadget,
but their lifecycles are decoupled. A race condition exists where
usb_del_gadget() frees the udc memory (e.g., via mode-switch work)
while gadget_match_driver() concurrently accesses the freed udc memory
(e.g., via configfs), causing a Use-After-Free (UAF) that triggers a
NULL pointer dereference when the freed memory is zeroed:

Fix this by ensuring the udc structure remains allocated until the
gadget is released. To achieve this, introduce a new
usb_gadget_release() routine to the core. When the gadget is added,
usb_add_gadget() stores the gadget's release routine in the udc
structure and takes a reference to the udc. When the gadget is
released, usb_gadget_release() drops the reference to the udc and
then calls the gadget's release routine. |

The threaded IRQ handler ccg_irq_handler() calls ucsi_notify_common(),
which on a connector-change event calls ucsi_connector_change() and
schedules connector work. In ucsi_ccg_remove(), ucsi_destroy() frees
uc->ucsi (kfree) before free_irq() is called, so a handler invocation
already in flight may access the freed object after ucsi_destroy().
CPU 0 (remove) | CPU 1 (threaded IRQ)

Move free_irq() before ucsi_destroy() in the remove path. It is kept
after ucsi_unregister(): ucsi_unregister() cancels connector work whose
handler issues GET_CONNECTOR_STATUS through ucsi_send_command_common(),
which waits for a completion that is signalled from the IRQ handler, so
the IRQ must stay active until that work has been cancelled.
The probe error path already orders free_irq() before ucsi_destroy().

several functions iterate over the list without holding this lock.
A concurrent adf_service_register() or adf_service_unregister() call
could modify the list during traversal, leading to list corruption or
a use-after-free.
Fix this by holding service_lock across all list_for_each_entry()
iterations of service_table in adf_dev_init(), adf_dev_start(),
adf_dev_stop(), adf_dev_shutdown(), adf_dev_restarting_notify(),
adf_dev_restarted_notify(), and adf_error_notifier().
The lock ordering is safe: callers of the static helpers (adf_dev_up()
and adf_dev_down()) acquire state_lock before service_lock, and no
event_hld callback or service_lock holder ever acquires state_lock in
the reverse order. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: modedb: fix a possible UAF in fb_find_mode()
If mode_option is NULL, it is assigned from mode_option_buf:
if (!mode_option) {
fb_get_options(NULL, &mode_option_buf);
mode_option = mode_option_buf;
}
Later, name is assigned from mode_option:
const char *name = mode_option;
However, mode_option_buf is freed before name is no longer used:
kfree(mode_option_buf);
while name is still accessed by:
if ((name_matches(db[i], name, namelen) ||
Since name aliases mode_option_buf, this may result in a
use-after-free.
Fix this by extending the lifetime of mode_option_buf until the end of the
function by using scope-based resource management for cleanup. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: delete tried region in regions_rmdirs()
DAMON sysfs maintains the DAMOS tried region directory objects via a
linked list. When the user requests refresh of the directories, DAMON
sysfs removes all the region directories first, and then generate updated
regions directory on the empty space. The removal function
(damon_sysfs_scheme_regions_rm_dirs()) only puts the kobj objects.
Deletion of the container region object from the linked list is done
inside the kobj release callback function.
If somehow the callback invocation is delayed, the list will contain
regions list that gonna be freed. If the updated region directories
creation is started in this situation, the list can be corrupted and
use-after-free can happen.
Because the kobj objects are managed by only DAMON sysfs, the issue cannot
happen in normal situation. But, such delays can be made on kernels that
built with CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE. On the kernel, the issue can
indeed be reproduced like below.
# damo start --damos_action stat
# cd /sys/kernel/mm/damon/admin/kdamonds/0/
# for i in {1..10}; do echo update_schemes_tried_regions > state; done
# dmesg | grep underflow
[ 89.296152] refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.
Fix the issue by removing the region object from the list when
decrementing the reference count.
Also update damos_sysfs_populate_region_dir() to add the region object to
the list only after the kobject_init_and_add() is success, so that fail of
kobject_init_and_add() is not leaving the deallocated object on the list.
The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko. |
