In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ip: Fix data-races around sysctl_ip_prot_sock. sysctl_ip_prot_sock is accessed concurrently, and there is always a chance of data-race. So, all readers and writers need some basic protection to avoid load/store-tearing.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: udp: Fix a data-race around sysctl_udp_l3mdev_accept. While reading sysctl_udp_l3mdev_accept, it can be changed concurrently. Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its reader.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipv4: Fix data-races around sysctl_fib_multipath_hash_fields. While reading sysctl_fib_multipath_hash_fields, it can be changed concurrently. Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its readers.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tcp: Fix a data-race around sysctl_tcp_thin_linear_timeouts. While reading sysctl_tcp_thin_linear_timeouts, it can be changed concurrently. Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its reader.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tcp: Fix data-races around sysctl_tcp_recovery. While reading sysctl_tcp_recovery, it can be changed concurrently. Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its readers.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tcp: Fix a data-race around sysctl_tcp_early_retrans. While reading sysctl_tcp_early_retrans, it can be changed concurrently. Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its reader.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tcp: Fix data-races around sysctl_tcp_slow_start_after_idle. While reading sysctl_tcp_slow_start_after_idle, it can be changed concurrently. Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its readers.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tcp: Fix data-races around sysctl_tcp_max_reordering. While reading sysctl_tcp_max_reordering, it can be changed concurrently. Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its readers.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gpio: gpio-xilinx: Fix integer overflow Current implementation is not able to configure more than 32 pins due to incorrect data type. So type casting with unsigned long to avoid it.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: spi: bcm2835: bcm2835_spi_handle_err(): fix NULL pointer deref for non DMA transfers In case a IRQ based transfer times out the bcm2835_spi_handle_err() function is called. Since commit 1513ceee70f2 ("spi: bcm2835: Drop dma_pending flag") the TX and RX DMA transfers are unconditionally canceled, leading to NULL pointer derefs if ctlr->dma_tx or ctlr->dma_rx are not set. Fix the NULL pointer deref by checking that ctlr->dma_tx and ctlr->dma_rx are valid pointers before accessing them.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: Don't null dereference ops->destroy A KVM device cleanup happens in either of two callbacks: 1) destroy() which is called when the VM is being destroyed; 2) release() which is called when a device fd is closed. Most KVM devices use 1) but Book3s's interrupt controller KVM devices (XICS, XIVE, XIVE-native) use 2) as they need to close and reopen during the machine execution. The error handling in kvm_ioctl_create_device() assumes destroy() is always defined which leads to NULL dereference as discovered by Syzkaller. This adds a checks for destroy!=NULL and adds a missing release(). This is not changing kvm_destroy_devices() as devices with defined release() should have been removed from the KVM devices list by then.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/mempolicy: fix uninit-value in mpol_rebind_policy() mpol_set_nodemask()(mm/mempolicy.c) does not set up nodemask when pol->mode is MPOL_LOCAL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: crypto: qat - fix memory leak in RSA When an RSA key represented in form 2 (as defined in PKCS #1 V2.1) is used, some components of the private key persist even after the TFM is released. Replace the explicit calls to free the buffers in qat_rsa_exit_tfm() with a call to qat_rsa_clear_ctx() which frees all buffers referenced in the TFM context.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: perf/x86/intel/lbr: Fix unchecked MSR access error on HSW The fuzzer triggers the below trace.

The lbr_from_signext_quirk_needed() is introduced to determine whether the TSX quirk should be applied. However, the lbr_from_signext_quirk_needed() is invoked before the intel_pmu_lbr_init(), which parses the LBR format information. Without the correct LBR format information, the TSX quirk never be applied. Move the lbr_from_signext_quirk_needed() into the intel_pmu_lbr_init(). Checking x86_pmu.lbr_has_tsx in the lbr_from_signext_quirk_needed() is not required anymore. Both LBR_FORMAT_EIP_FLAGS2 and LBR_FORMAT_INFO have LBR_TSX flag, but only the LBR_FORMAT_EIP_FLAGS2 requirs the quirk. Update the comments accordingly.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: crypto: qat - add param check for DH Reject requests with a source buffer that is bigger than the size of the key. This is to prevent a possible integer underflow that might happen when copying the source scatterlist into a linear buffer.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: x86: Use __try_cmpxchg_user() to update guest PTE A/D bits Use the recently introduced __try_cmpxchg_user() to update guest PTE A/D bits instead of mapping the PTE into kernel address space. The VM_PFNMAP path is broken as it assumes that vm_pgoff is the base pfn of the mapped VMA range, which is conceptually wrong as vm_pgoff is the offset relative to the file and has nothing to do with the pfn. The horrific hack worked for the original use case (backing guest memory with /dev/mem), but leads to accessing "random" pfns for pretty much any other VM_PFNMAP case.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: conntrack: re-fetch conntrack after insertion In case the conntrack is clashing, insertion can free skb->_nfct and set skb->_nfct to the already-confirmed entry. This wasn't found before because the conntrack entry and the extension space used to free'd after an rcu grace period, plus the race needs events enabled to trigger.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: exfat: check if cluster num is valid Syzbot reported slab-out-of-bounds read in exfat_clear_bitmap.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: x86: Drop WARNs that assert a triple fault never "escapes" from L2 Remove WARNs that sanity check that KVM never lets a triple fault for L2 escape and incorrectly end up in L1. In normal operation, the sanity check is perfectly valid, but it incorrectly assumes that it's impossible for userspace to induce KVM_REQ_TRIPLE_FAULT without bouncing through KVM_RUN (which guarantees kvm_check_nested_state() will see and handle the triple fault). The WARN can currently be triggered if userspace injects a machine check while L2 is active and CR4.MCE=0. And a future fix to allow save/restore of KVM_REQ_TRIPLE_FAULT, e.g. so that a synthesized triple fault isn't lost on migration, will make it trivially easy for userspace to trigger the WARN. Clearing KVM_REQ_TRIPLE_FAULT when forcibly leaving guest mode is tempting, but wrong, especially if/when the request is saved/restored, e.g. if userspace restores events (including a triple fault) and then restores nested state (which may forcibly leave guest mode). Ignoring the fact that KVM doesn't currently provide the necessary APIs, it's userspace's responsibility to manage pending events during save/restore. ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 7 PID: 1399 at arch/x86/kvm/vmx/nested.c:4522 nested_vmx_vmexit+0x7fe/0xd90 [kvm_intel] Modules linked in: kvm_intel kvm irqbypass CPU: 7 PID: 1399 Comm: state_test Not tainted 5.17.0-rc3+ #808 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 0.0.0 02/06/2015 RIP: 0010:nested_vmx_vmexit+0x7fe/0xd90 [kvm_intel] Call Trace: <TASK> vmx_leave_nested+0x30/0x40 [kvm_intel] vmx_set_nested_state+0xca/0x3e0 [kvm_intel] kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl+0xf49/0x13e0 [kvm] kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0x4b9/0x660 [kvm] __x64_sys_ioctl+0x83/0xb0 do_syscall_64+0x3b/0xc0 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae </TASK> ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---Show less
