CVSS v3.1 |
| A flaw was found in Infinispan, which does not detect circular object references when unmarshalling. An authenticated attacker with sufficient permissions could insert a maliciously constructed object into the cache and use it to cause out of memory errors and achieve a denial of service. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/nop: fix file reference leak with IOSQE_FIXED_FILE
NOP file-acquisition support choses between a fixed (registered) file and
a normal fget()'d file based on its own IORING_NOP_FIXED_FILE flag in
sqe->nop_flags. However, a request's REQ_F_FIXED_FILE is set
independently from the generic IOSQE_FIXED_FILE sqe flag during request
init, before the issue handler runs.
If a NOP is submitted with IOSQE_FIXED_FILE set (so REQ_F_FIXED_FILE is
set) but without IORING_NOP_FIXED_FILE, io_nop() takes the normal path
and grabs a real reference via io_file_get_normal(). On completion,
io_put_file() only drops the reference when REQ_F_FIXED_FILE is clear,
so the fget()'d file is never released and leaks:

Decide between fixed and normal file acquisition from REQ_F_FIXED_FILE,
the same way io_assign_file() does for every other opcode, and fold
IORING_NOP_FIXED_FILE into REQ_F_FIXED_FILE at prep time. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware_loader: fix device reference leak in firmware_upload_register()
firmware_upload_register()
-> fw_create_instance()
-> device_initialize()
After fw_create_instance() succeeds, the lifetime of the embedded struct
device is expected to be managed through the device core reference
counting, since fw_create_instance() has already called
device_initialize().
In firmware_upload_register(), if alloc_lookup_fw_priv() fails after
fw_create_instance() succeeds, the code reaches free_fw_sysfs and frees
fw_sysfs directly instead of releasing the device reference with
put_device(). This may leave the reference count of the embedded struct
device unbalanced, resulting in a refcount leak.
The issue was identified by a static analysis tool I developed and
confirmed by manual review. Fix this by using put_device(fw_dev) in the
failure path and letting fw_dev_release() handle the final cleanup,
instead of freeing the instance directly from the error path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
posix-cpu-timers: Fix pid refcount leak in do_cpu_nanosleep() error path
In do_cpu_nanosleep(), posix_cpu_timer_create() takes a pid reference
via get_pid() and stores it in timer.it.cpu.pid. If the subsequent
posix_cpu_timer_set() call fails, the function returns immediately
without calling posix_cpu_timer_del() to release the pid reference,
causing a leak.
Fix it by calling posix_cpu_timer_del() before the unlock-and-return
on the error path, consistent with the other exit paths in the same
function. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvme: target: rdma: fix ndev refcount leak on queue connect
nvmet_rdma_queue_connect() calls nvmet_rdma_find_get_device() which
acquires a reference on the returned ndev via kref_get(). On the path
where the host queue backlog is exceeded and the function returns
NVME_SC_CONNECT_CTRL_BUSY, reference of ndev is not released, leaking
the kref.
Fix this by adding a goto to the existing put_device label before the
early return. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
regulator: scmi: fix of_node refcount leak in scmi_regulator_probe()
scmi_regulator_probe() calls of_find_node_by_name() which takes a
reference on the returned device node. On the error path where
process_scmi_regulator_of_node() fails, the function returns without
calling of_node_put() on the child node, leaking the reference.
Add of_node_put(np) on the error path to properly release the
reference. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drivers/base/memory: fix memory block reference leak in poison accounting
memblk_nr_poison_inc() and memblk_nr_poison_sub() look up a memory block
via find_memory_block_by_id(), which acquires a reference to the memory
block device.
Both helpers use the returned memory block without dropping that
reference, leaking the device reference on each successful lookup. Drop
the reference after updating nr_hwpoison. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/hv-gpci: fix preempt count leak in sysfs show paths
Four sysfs show() callbacks in hv-gpci take get_cpu_var(hv_gpci_reqb)
(which calls preempt_disable()) but only call the matching put_cpu_var()
on the error path under the 'out:' label. Every successful read leaks
one preempt_disable():
processor_bus_topology_show()
processor_config_show()
affinity_domain_via_virtual_processor_show()
affinity_domain_via_domain_show()
(affinity_domain_via_partition_show() was already correct.)
On a CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernel, repeated reads raise preempt_count and
eventually return to userspace with preemption still disabled. The
next user-mode page fault then hits faulthandler_disabled() == 1,
gets forced to SIGSEGV, and the resulting coredump trips
'BUG: scheduling while atomic' in call_usermodehelper_exec ->
wait_for_completion_state -> schedule:

Add an out_success label that calls put_cpu_var() before returning
the byte count, mirroring affinity_domain_via_partition_show(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/virtio: fix dma_fence refcount leak on error in virtio_gpu_dma_fence_wait()
dma_fence_unwrap_for_each() internally calls dma_fence_unwrap_first()
which does cursor->chain = dma_fence_get(head), taking an extra
reference. On normal loop completion, dma_fence_unwrap_next()
releases this via dma_fence_chain_walk() -> dma_fence_put().
When virtio_gpu_do_fence_wait() fails and the function returns early
from inside the loop, the cursor->chain reference is never released.
This is the only caller in the entire kernel that does an early return
inside dma_fence_unwrap_for_each.
Add dma_fence_put(itr.chain) before the early return. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
blk-cgroup: fix disk reference leak in blkcg_maybe_throttle_current()
Add the missing put_disk() on the error path in
blkcg_maybe_throttle_current(). When blkcg lookup, blkg lookup, or
blkg_tryget() fails, the function jumps to the out label which only
calls rcu_read_unlock() but does not release the disk reference acquired
by blkcg_schedule_throttle() via get_device(). Since current->throttle_disk
is already set to NULL before the lookup, blkcg_exit() cannot release
this reference either, causing the disk to never be freed.
Restore the reference release that was present as blk_put_queue() in the
original code but was inadvertently dropped during the conversion from
request_queue to gendisk. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vsock/virtio: fix MSG_ZEROCOPY pinned-pages accounting
virtio_transport_init_zcopy_skb() uses iter->count as the size argument
for msg_zerocopy_realloc(), which in turn passes it to
mm_account_pinned_pages() for RLIMIT_MEMLOCK accounting. However, this
function is called after virtio_transport_fill_skb() has already consumed
the iterator via __zerocopy_sg_from_iter(), so on the last skb, iter->count
will be 0, skipping the RLIMIT_MEMLOCK enforcement.
Pass pkt_len (the total bytes being sent) as an explicit parameter to
virtio_transport_init_zcopy_skb() instead of reading the already-consumed
iter->count.
This matches TCP and UDP, which both call msg_zerocopy_realloc() with
the original message size. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fsnotify: fix inode reference leak in fsnotify_recalc_mask()
fsnotify_recalc_mask() fails to handle the return value of
__fsnotify_recalc_mask(), which may return an inode pointer that needs
to be released via fsnotify_drop_object() when the connector's HAS_IREF
flag transitions from set to cleared.
This manifests as a hung task with the following call trace:
INFO: task umount:1234 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
Call Trace:
__schedule
schedule
fsnotify_sb_delete
generic_shutdown_super
kill_anon_super

The race window that triggers the iref leak:

────────────────────── ────────────────────────
fsnotify_add_mark_locked():
fsnotify_add_mark_list():
spin_lock(conn->lock)
add mark_B(evictable) to list
spin_unlock(conn->lock)

/* ---- gap: no lock held ---- */
fsnotify_detach_mark(mark_A):
spin_lock(mark_A->lock)
clear ATTACHED flag on mark_A
spin_unlock(mark_A->lock)
fsnotify_put_mark(mark_A)
fsnotify_recalc_mask():
spin_lock(conn->lock)
__fsnotify_recalc_mask():
/* mark_A skipped: ATTACHED cleared */
/* only mark_B(evictable) remains */
want_iref = false
has_iref = true /* not yet cleared */
-> HAS_IREF transitions true -> false
-> returns inode pointer
spin_unlock(conn->lock)
/* BUG: return value discarded!
* iput() and fsnotify_put_sb_watched_objects()
* are never called */
Fix this by deferring the transition true -> false of HAS_IREF flag from
fsnotify_recalc_mask() (Thread A) to fsnotify_put_mark() (thread B). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vsock/virtio: fix accept queue count leak on transport mismatch
virtio_transport_recv_listen() calls sk_acceptq_added() before
vsock_assign_transport(). If vsock_assign_transport() fails or
selects a different transport, the error path returns without
calling sk_acceptq_removed(), permanently incrementing
sk_ack_backlog.
After approximately backlog+1 such failures, sk_acceptq_is_full()
returns true, causing the listener to reject all new connections.
Fix by moving sk_acceptq_added() to after the transport validation,
matching the pattern used by vmci_transport and hyperv_transport. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
inotify: fix watch count leak when fsnotify_add_inode_mark_locked() fails
When fsnotify_add_inode_mark_locked() fails in inotify_new_watch(),
the error path calls inotify_remove_from_idr() but does not call
dec_inotify_watches() to undo the preceding inc_inotify_watches().
This leaks a watch count, and repeated failures can exhaust the
max_user_watches limit with -ENOSPC even when no watches are active.
Prior to commit 1cce1eea0aff ("inotify: Convert to using per-namespace
limits"), the watch count was incremented after fsnotify_add_mark_locked()
succeeded, so this path was not affected. The conversion moved
inc_inotify_watches() before the mark insertion without adding the
corresponding rollback.
Add the missing dec_inotify_watches() call in the error path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
thermal/of: Fix reference leak in thermal_of_cm_lookup()
In thermal_of_cm_lookup(), tr_np is obtained via of_parse_phandle(), but
never released.
Use the __free(device_node) cleanup attribute to automatically release
the node and fix the leak.

drm/amdgpu/userq: Fix reference leak in amdgpu_userq_wait_ioctl
Drop reference to syncobj and timeline fence when aborting the ioctl due
output array being too small.
(cherry picked from commit 68951e9c3e6bb22396bc42ef2359751c8315dd27) |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: of: display_timing: fix refcount leak in of_get_display_timings()
of_parse_phandle() returns a device_node with refcount incremented,
which is stored in 'entry' and then copied to 'native_mode'. When the
error paths at lines 184 or 192 jump to 'entryfail', native_mode's
refcount is not decremented, causing a refcount leak.
Fix this by changing the goto target from 'entryfail' to 'timingfail',
which properly calls of_node_put(native_mode) before cleanup. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rxrpc: Fix key reference count leak from call->key
When creating a client call in rxrpc_alloc_client_call(), the code obtains
a reference to the key. This is never cleaned up and gets leaked when the
call is destroyed.
Fix this by freeing call->key in rxrpc_destroy_call().
Before the patch, it shows the key reference counter elevated:
$ cat /proc/keys | grep afs@54321
1bffe9cd I--Q--i 8053480 4169w 3b010000 1000 1000 rxrpc afs@54321: ka
$
After the patch, the invalidated key is removed when the code exits:
$ cat /proc/keys | grep afs@54321
$ |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rxrpc: fix reference count leak in rxrpc_server_keyring()
This patch fixes a reference count leak in rxrpc_server_keyring()
by checking if rx->securities is already set. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i40e: Fix preempt count leak in napi poll tracepoint
Using get_cpu() in the tracepoint assignment causes an obvious preempt
count leak because nothing invokes put_cpu() to undo it:
softirq: huh, entered softirq 3 NET_RX with preempt_count 00000100, exited with 00000101?
This clearly has seen a lot of testing in the last 3+ years...
Use smp_processor_id() instead. |
