CVSS v3.1 |
| A race condition vulnerability was found in the vmwgfx driver in the Linux kernel. The flaw exists within the handling of GEM objects. The issue results from improper locking when performing operations on an object. This flaw allows a local privileged user to disclose information in the context of the kernel. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/waitid: own the request before clearing ->head
io_waitid_remove_wq() only takes the wait queue lock if ->head is set.
io_waitid_wait() clears ->head first thing, before it tries to become the
owner of the request by bumping ->refs. If somebody else owns the request
at that point, nothing keeps it from completing the request while the
wake up handler is still going to touch it:
CPU0 (io_waitid_wait) CPU1 (io_waitid, holds a ref)
list_del_init(&wait->entry)
smp_store_release(&iw->head, NULL)
__do_wait() finds another child
io_waitid_remove_wq()
// ->head == NULL, no locking
io_waitid_finish(), IOU_COMPLETE
// request freed and reused
atomic_fetch_inc(&iw->refs)
The same goes for __io_waitid_cancel() if it claims the request in that
window. ->refs is part of the per opcode data of the request, so this
increments whatever the next user of the request keeps there. If that
happens to be zero, the handler concludes that it owns the request, and
queues io_waitid_cb() for it. With the window held open by a delay, and
the request reused for a receive that is waiting for data:

Only clear ->head once the handler owns the request. If it doesn't, the
owner finds ->head set and has to wait for the lock, which is held by the
caller of the handler. Deleting the already deleted entry again is
harmless. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
driver core: platform: use generic driver_override infrastructure
When a driver is probed through __driver_attach(), the bus' match()
callback is called without the device lock held, thus accessing the
driver_override field without a lock, which can cause a UAF.
Fix this by using the driver-core driver_override infrastructure taking
care of proper locking internally.
Note that calling match() from __driver_attach() without the device lock
held is intentional. [1] |

spi: use generic driver_override infrastructure

Fix this by using the driver-core driver_override infrastructure taking

Note that calling match() from __driver_attach() without the device lock

Also note that we do not enable the driver_override feature of struct
bus_type, as SPI - in contrast to most other buses - passes "" to
sysfs_emit() when the driver_override pointer is NULL. Thus, printing
"\n" instead of "(null)\n". |

net: ibmveth: make veth_pool_store stop hanging
v2:
- Created a single error handling unlock and exit in veth_pool_store
- Greatly expanded commit message with previous explanatory-only text
Summary: Use rtnl_mutex to synchronize veth_pool_store with itself,
ibmveth_close and ibmveth_open, preventing multiple calls in a row to
napi_disable.
Background: Two (or more) threads could call veth_pool_store through
writing to /sys/devices/vio/30000002/pool*/*. You can do this easily
with a little shell script. This causes a hang.
I configured LOCKDEP, compiled ibmveth.c with DEBUG, and built a new

net: hinic: avoid kernel hung in hinic_get_stats64()

When getting device stats from bond, kernel will call bond_get_stats().
It first holds the spinlock bond->stats_lock, and then call
hinic_get_stats64() to collect hinic device's stats.
However, hinic_get_stats64() calls `down(&nic_dev->mgmt_lock)` to
protect its critical section, which may schedule current task out.
And if system is under high pressure, the task cannot be woken up
immediately, which eventually triggers kernel hung panic.
Since previous patch has replaced hinic_dev.tx_stats/rx_stats with local
variable in hinic_get_stats64(), there is nothing need to be protected
by lock, so just removing down()/up() is ok. |

powerpc/pci: Fix get_phb_number() locking
The recent change to get_phb_number() causes a DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP
warning on some systems:

[d101df30] [c001b334] ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0x64
This is because pcibios_alloc_controller() holds hose_spinlock but
of_alias_get_id() takes of_mutex which can sleep.
The hose_spinlock protects the phb_bitmap, and also the hose_list, but
it doesn't need to be held while get_phb_number() calls the OF routines,
because those are only looking up information in the device tree.
So fix it by having get_phb_number() take the hose_spinlock itself, only
where required, and then dropping the lock before returning.
pcibios_alloc_controller() then needs to take the lock again before the
list_add() but that's safe, the order of the list is not important. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm cache: fix issue with background work locking
dm cache used a rw_semaphore for background_work_lock. Write locks on
rw_semaphores have strict owner semantics, but there was no guarantee
that the process that locked background_work_lock was the same process
that unlocked it. This can be easily seen using a kernel compiled with
CONFIG_DEBUG_RWSEMS. Given a dm cache device <cache>, run: 'dmsetup
suspend <cache> && dmsetup resume <cache>'. This will trigger a kernel
warning:
DEBUG_RWSEMS_WARN_ON((rwsem_owner(sem) != current) && !rwsem_test_oflags(sem, RWSEM_NONSPINNABLE))
triggered by cache_resume(). To fix this, switch from a rw_semaphore to
a spinlock and a wait queue. dm cache already has a wait queue and
associated counter, migration_wait and nr_allocated_migrations, that was
getting woken up when background work was getting completed, but wasn't
actually used by anything. This is replaced by the background_work queue
and counter. |
| Out of bound access in PPC due to race condition in global variable access |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: fix race between fallocate and mmap reads
The fallocate implementation only takes invalidate_lock for punch hole,
collapse range, and insert range operations. For standard allocation modes
(mode == 0, FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE), the lock is not held.
During ntfs_attr_fallocate(), new clusters are mapped to the runlist via
ntfs_attr_map_cluster() before being zeroed by ntfs_dio_zero_range(). This
creates a window where concurrent mmap page faults can read uninitialized
disk data.
Since mmap uses filemap_fault() which takes invalidate_lock in shared mode,
it can fault in pages during this window and expose old disk contents to
userspace. This is an information leak and data integrity issue.
Fix by taking invalidate_lock for all fallocate operations, not just for
punch/collapse/insert modes. This prevents concurrent page faults from
accessing unzeroed clusters during the allocation window. |
| A flaw was found in flightctl. The configureRepoHTTPSClient() function in the device-render worker builds a per-repository tls.Config (which may include InsecureSkipVerify, a custom CA bundle, or tenant-supplied mTLS client certificates) and installs it into go-git's process-global client.Protocols map via gitclient.InstallProtocol("https", ...). Because the worker renders devices for multiple organizations concurrently from a shared goroutine pool, whichever tenant's repository configuration is written last wins for all in-flight git.Clone calls.
This race condition can cause one tenant's TLS settings, including InsecureSkipVerify or mTLS client credentials, to leak into another tenant's git operations. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: SEV: Fix page dirtying in sev_gmem_post_populate()
set_page_dirty() requires that the caller holds some kind of lock to
ensure that the page's mapping does not concurrently go away.
That is not the case for a random page we got from get_user_pages_fast(),
so use set_page_dirty_lock().
[sean: tag for stable] |
| OpenManage Enterprise, versions prior to 4.8.0, contains an Improper Resource Locking vulnerability. A high privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Protection mechanism bypass. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinctrl: mediatek: paris: bypass pinctrl GPIO layer in set GPIO direction
pinctrl_gpio_direction_input() / pinctrl_gpio_direction_output() take
the pinctrl mutex. This causes a gpiochip operations to need to sleep.
Worse yet, the .can_sleep field in the gpiochip is not set. This causes
the shared GPIO proxy to trip over, as it uses gpiod_cansleep() to check
whether it can use a spinlock or needs a mutex. In this case, it ends
up taking a spinlock, then calls pinctrl_gpio_direction_output(), which
takes a mutex. This causes a huge warning.
While this class of Mediatek hardware does not have separate clear/set
registers, the pinctrl context has a spinlock that is taken whenever
a register read-modify-write is done. Also, once the GPIO function is
selected / muxed in, further GPIO operations do not involve pinctrl
operations or state. The GPIO direction and level values do not require
toggling the pinmux or any other pin config options.
Switch to directly calling mtk_pinmux_gpio_set_direction() in the GPIO
set direction callbacks to avoid taking the pinctrl mutex. Drop the
.gpio_set_direction field in mtk_pmxops to signal we are no longer using
the pinctrl GPIO layer for setting the direction. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: pca953x: fix pca953x_irq_bus_sync_unlock regmap lock
Locking is disabled in the regmap config as this driver uses its own
lock. This means that all calls to regmap functions (read or write) must
hold the i2c_lock. The function pca953x_irq_bus_sync_unlock() did not do
this, and it was therefore possible that multiple threads could cause an
incorrect register to be read/written.
A previous patch partly fixed this, but only protected the write to the
interrupt mask register, and not the read from the direction register. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/ptdump: always stabilise against page table freeing using init_mm
Previous commits have established the invariant that kernel page table
freeing is performed while an mmap read lock on init_mm is held, which
fixes races between ptdump and kernel page table freeing over init_mm.
However, x86 and arm64 can perform a ptdump over an mm other than init_mm
via ptdump_walk_pgd() and since kernel memory ranges are shared across
non-kernel mm's, this means that the race still exists for these cases.
Fix this by acquiring a nested mmap write lock for init_mm in
ptdump_walk_pgd().
This is safe as we take this after mmap write locking the mm, and nothing
acquires the init_mm lock first before locking an arbitrary mm, so no
deadlock is possible.
Also update walk_page_range_debug() to assert that init_mm is write
locked, add a comment explaining why and remove some redundant code, and
eliminate the unnecessary and confusing invocation of
walk_kernel_page_table_range().
We can safely remove the non-NULL check for walk.mm, as the mmap lock
asserts would NULL pointer deref if it was (and of course no callers do
this).
The first point at which ptdump can race kernel page table freeing is
commit b6bdb7517c3d ("mm/vmalloc: add interfaces to free unmapped page
table"), so we target this in the Fixes tag. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pmdomain: imx93-blk-ctrl: Extract PHY as shared domain for DSI/CSI
The MIPI DSI and CSI domains share control bits for clock and reset, which
can lead to incorrect behavior if one domain disables the shared resource
while the other is still active.
To fix the issue, introduce a shared MIPI PHY power domain to own the
common resources and make DSI and CSI its subdomains. This ensures the
shared bits are properly managed and not disabled while still in use. |
