perf/x86/intel: Fix kernel address leakages in LBR stack
Before Arch LBR gained CPL filtering support, a user-only branch stack
could still contain kernel addresses. As a result, kernel branch records
may be exposed to user space even when PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_USER is
requested.
For example, on Intel Tiger Lake, the following command can still report
SYSRET/ERET entries with kernel-space from addresses:
$ ./perf record -e cycles:p -o - --branch-filter any,save_type,u -- \
./perf bench syscall basic --loop 1000 | \
./perf script -i - --fields brstack|tr ' ' '\n'| \
grep -E '0x[89a-f][0-9a-f]{15}'

0xffffffff93c01928/0x7f12a297a000/P/-/-/8575/ERET/-
The problem is that intel_pmu_lbr_filter() does not fully validate the
privilege level of sampled entries. It filters some mismatches based on
the branch type and the to address, but it does not reject entries whose
from address violates the requested branch privilege filter.
Fix this by extending software filtering to validate both from and to
addresses against br_sel. Any LBR entry contains kernel address does not
match the requested user filter is dropped. This prevents kernel
addresses from appearing in user-only branch stacks. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: mux: Fix channel node leak on adapter add failure
i2c_mux_add_adapter() takes a reference to the Device Tree channel node
before registering the new adapter. If adapter registration fails, the
error path frees the private data without dropping that reference.
Release the channel node before freeing the private data. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: Don't read GMID_EL1 when MTE is disabled
__cpuinfo_store_cpu() gates the GMID_EL1 read on the raw
ID_AA64PFR1_EL1, so it reads the register even when the kernel has
disabled MTE (CONFIG_ARM64_MTE=n or arm64.nomte). KVM sets HCR_EL2.TID5
in that case, and pKVM injects an UNDEF the host cannot handle:
Internal error: Oops - Undefined instruction: 0000000002000000 [#1] SMP
pc : __cpuinfo_store_cpu+0xf4/0x264
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task!
Only pKVM reaches it, and only after a CPU is offlined and brought back
online: its CPU_ON relay sets the host HCR before the CPU enters EL1,
while plain nVHE sets it at CPUHP_AP_KVM_ONLINE.
Gate the read on the CPU's own ID_AA64PFR1_EL1 with the command-line
override applied, and on CONFIG_ARM64_MTE, which no register reflects.
The boot CPU stores its registers before init_cpu_features() strips an
unsafe override, so clamp against the hardware value here too. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
accel/ethosu: fix job completion fence cleanup
ethosu_ioctl_submit_job() allocates done_fence before validating buffer
handles. Errors after allocation call ethosu_job_err_cleanup(), which frees
the job but leaks the uninitialized fence.
A scheduler dependency error also lets ethosu_job_run() return before
dma_fence_init(). Normal cleanup then passes a zeroed refcount to
dma_fence_put().
Release done_fence in the common cleanup path and use
dma_fence_was_initialized() to distinguish initialized fences from raw
allocations.

mm/hugetlb_cma: fix null nodemask dereference in hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio
alloc_buddy_hugetlb_folio_with_mpol() can pass a NULL nodemask to
alloc_fresh_hugetlb_folio() as a fallback to allocate from all nodes. If
order is gigantic, alloc_fresh_hugetlb_folio() propagates the NULL
nodemask down to hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio() via
alloc_gigantic_frozen_folio().
Additionally, hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio() previously attempted
allocation on hugetlb_cma[nid] without verifying if nid is included in the
caller's nodemask. Adding a node_isset(nid, *nodemask) check ensures the
initial preferred node allocation honors the memory policy / nodemask.
However, hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio() dereferences the nodemask in
node_isset(nid, *nodemask) and for_each_node_mask(node, *nodemask),
leading to a null pointer dereference kernel panic when nodemask is NULL.
Fix this by checking if nodemask is NULL in
hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio() and defaulting it to
cpuset_current_mems_allowed. Enclose the allocation attempts within the
cpuset seqcount retry loop so that if the cpuset changes concurrently
during allocation, the attempts are retried using the updated nodemask.
This ensures that the initial node check and fallback loop safely honor
the task's cpuset without violating cpuset constraints or causing NULL
pointer dereferences or unexpected allocation failures.
From a userspace perspective, this bug allows an unprivileged user to
crash the kernel (trigger a panic) by requesting a gigantic hugepage
allocation with MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY on a system where CMA is only
configured on a subset of NUMA nodes.
This can be reproduced by booting a VM with two NUMA nodes, restricting
CMA to Node 1 (e.g., hugetlb_cma=1:1G default_hugepagesz=1G hugepagesz=1G
hugepages=0), and running a program that allocates a 1GB hugepage area
without reserving, restricts allocation to Node 0 using mbind() with
MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY, and triggers a page fault:
void *ptr = mmap(NULL, 1UL << 30, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_HUGETLB |
MAP_HUGE_1GB | MAP_NORESERVE, -1, 0);
unsigned long nodemask = 1; /* Node 0 */
mbind(ptr, 1UL << 30, MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY, &nodemask,
sizeof(nodemask) * 8, 0);
memset(ptr, 0, 1UL << 30); /* Trigger fault */
This results in a NULL pointer dereference:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
parisc: eisa: Fix infinite loop when parsing invalid IRQ value
When an invalid value is passed via the "eisa_irq_edge=" kernel
command line parameter (e.g. "eisa_irq_edge=16,5"), eisa_irq_setup()
prints an error message and continues without advancing the current
position. As a result the same invalid value is parsed again and
again, causing an infinite loop while the kernel boots.
Advance to the next comma-separated entry, or stop parsing when there
is no next entry, before continuing so that the remaining entries are
processed normally. |

s390/vfio-ap: Fix missing lock required to access list of ap_matrix_mdev objects
In order to traverse or add/remove ap_matrix_mdev objects in the
matrix_dev->mdev_list, the matrix_dev->guests_lock mutex must be held.
There are two functions that access the list without holding the mutex:
vfio_ap_mdev_probe function
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The vfio_ap_mdev_probe function uses the matrix_dev->mdevs_lock
mutex to guard the add of a newly created ap_matrix_mdev object to the
matrix_dev->mdev_list. This mutex does not protect list access; its purpose
is to guard against concurrent access to fields contained in an
ap_matrix_mdev object. This could lead to kernel memory corruption or
use-after-free if another mdev is created or removed concurrently.
The adding of an ap_matrix_mdev object to matrix_dev->mdev_list
is now guarded by the matrix_dev->guests_lock which is the correct
way to protect against concurrent mdev_list access.
Also removed the following two lines of code because the matrix_mdev is
allocated via vfio_alloc_device macro which uses kzalloc, so req_trigger
and cfg_chg_trigger are already zero-initialised when the struct is
allocated before the call to vfio_register_emulated_iommu_dev. This
prevents a window whereby these triggers are set to NULL after
the device is exposed to userspace.
matrix_mdev->req_trigger = NULL;
matrix_mdev->cfg_chg_trigger = NULL;
vfio_ap_mdev_for_queue function
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The status_show function that supports display of the status attribute of
the devices in /sys/bus/ap/devices calls the vfio_ap_mdev_for_queue
function which iterates the matrix_dev->mdev_list to find the object
representing the queue device whose status is to be displayed. In order to
traverse this list, the matrix_dev->guests_lock mutex must be held.
To fix this, the guests_lock mutex is taken prior to taking the
matrix_dev->mdevs_lock mutex in the status_show function. It is taken
there rather than the vfio_ap_mdev_for_queue function - where it is
needed - because it must be taken prior to the mdevs_lock mutex in order to
adhere to the proper locking order and prevent a lockdep splat; also
because the mdevs_lock is needed there to access fields within
the matrix_mdev object in that function.
See the vfio-ap-locking.rst in the linux kernel tree. |

s390/vfio-ap: Fix NULL deref in status_show() during queue probe
When vfio_ap_mdev_probe_queue() creates the sysfs attribute group,
the queue's driver data has not yet been set. A concurrent read of
the 'status' attribute can therefore call dev_get_drvdata() and
get NULL, which is then passed directly to
vfio_ap_mdev_for_queue() where q->apqn is unconditionally
dereferenced, causing a NULL pointer dereference.
Fix this by acquiring the update locks before calling
sysfs_create_group(). The status_show() function acquires
guests_lock before reading the driver data, so any concurrent
read will block until after dev_set_drvdata() has been called
and the update locks are released.
As a bonus, the APQN no longer needs to be read from the queue
struct after allocation — it can be read directly from apdev
before allocation and stored in a local variable, which is then
assigned to q->apqn once the allocation succeeds. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mtd: mtdoops: free page bitmap when the backing MTD is removed
mtdoops_notify_add() allocates oops_page_used when the configured MTD
device is registered. mtdoops_notify_remove() detaches from that device
but leaves the bitmap allocated. If the same MTD device is later
registered again, the add path allocates a new bitmap and overwrites the
old pointer, leaking one vmalloc allocation per remove/add cycle.
This is only visible when the backing MTD device can disappear and be
registered again while mtdoops remains loaded, so the usual static MTD
case does not expose it.
Free the bitmap after unregistering the dumper and flushing the pending
workers, then clear the pointer and page count before a later attach can
allocate fresh state. Clearing the pointer also keeps the module exit
path from freeing the same bitmap a second time after a remove event. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mtd: rawnand: validate ONFI extended parameter page sections
nand_flash_detect_ext_param_page() allocates the length declared by the
ONFI parameter page, then treats the data as a fixed header followed by
variable-length sections. It reads that header and advances over sections
without first proving that the fixed page and each current section fit in
the allocation.
Reject pages shorter than the fixed header, track the remaining variable
area while walking sections, and require the ECC section to contain every
field read from struct onfi_ext_ecc_info. Use device-scoped diagnostics
that identify the malformed ONFI section. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: mcast: linearize skbuff for packet generation
batadv_mcast_forw_packet() and batadv_mcast_forw_scrape() is not only
called (indirectly) by the unsharing+linearizing batadv_recv_mcast_packet()
handler. When it is called (indirectly) by batadv_mcast_forw_mcsend() then
it will be unshared but not linearized. The SKB_LINEAR_ASSERT() can
therefore cause a fatal BUG().
The linearization should happen during the expansion of the head because
the scrape function can be hit already during the initial
batadv_mcast_forw_mode() selection code:
* batadv_interface_tx
* batadv_mcast_forw_mode
* batadv_mcast_forw_mode_by_count()
* batadv_mcast_forw_push()
-> calls batadv_mcast_forw_expand_head() before everything else
* batadv_mcast_forw_push_tvlvs()
* batadv_mcast_forw_push_dests()
* batadv_mcast_forw_push_adjust_padding()
* batadv_mcast_forw_scrape() |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: dat: avoid unaligned fault in IP extraction
Independent of the alignment of the ARP packet in the SKB, either the
batadv_arp_ip_src or the batadv_arp_ip_dst will have an unaligned access
(on HW without native unaligned read support).
Use get_unaligned() to handle this properly on all architectures. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: bla: fix freeing of claims on meshif deletion
When the mesh interface is getting deleted, then
batadv_bla_del_backbone_claims() (via batadv_bla_purge_backbone_gw()) could
make sure that all claims gets removed. But this function is only executed
when bat_priv->bla.claim_hash is not NULL. And since batadv_bla_free() is
always setting it to NULL before it is (indirectly) called, it was never
actually executed.
But the batadv_bla_purge_claims() -> batadv_handle_unclaim() is at the
moment too fragile because the BLA code is not handling the rehashing in
batadv_bla_update_orig_address(). The stored backbone address doesn't have
to be the one actually used for the hash bucket selection during the
initial adding of the backbone. The batadv_handle_unclaim() can therefore
fail to find the respective backbone for the unclaim and then stop the
deletion.
But the actual backbone_gw object is not needed for the unclaim because all
relevant information is always provided by the caller. And the check for
the existence of the backbone_gw doesn't provide any additional security
check for the deletion of a claim. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: cs35l34: drain threaded IRQ before runtime suspend
cs35l34_runtime_suspend() currently switches the codec into
regcache_cache_only(true), asserts reset low, and powers the device off
without first quiescing the threaded IRQ registered by
devm_request_threaded_irq(). That leaves a window where
cs35l34_irq_thread() can still run after suspend has removed live
hardware access.
A running system can reach this during runtime PM while the driver still
has critical fault IRQs unmasked. If the threaded handler runs in that
window, it reads volatile INT_STATUS_1..4 after cache_only has been
enabled, ignores the regmap_read() failures, and can still execute the
PROT_RELEASE_CTL release sequence or the BST fault power-down writes.
Use disable_irq() before entering cache_only/reset-low/power-off so any
in-flight threaded handler is drained and no new IRQ thread can run
while the device is suspended. Re-enable the IRQ only after
runtime_resume() has restored live register access with regcache_sync().
Since probe only logs request_threaded_irq() failures and keeps going,
track whether the IRQ was actually installed before disabling or
re-enabling it. |

ASoC: hdac_hda: Fix hlink refcount leak on component registration failure
hdac_hda_dev_probe() gets the HDA link with snd_hdac_ext_bus_link_get()
before registering the ASoC component. If component registration fails,
the function returns without dropping the link reference.
Always call snd_hdac_ext_bus_link_put() after the registration attempt so
the reference taken during probe is balanced on both success and failure. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: chemical: sgp30: Handle IAQ thread creation failure
kthread_run() can fail and return an error pointer, but sgp_probe() stores
it and returns success, so the device is registered without its IAQ thread
and sgp_remove() later passes the error pointer to kthread_stop(). Return
the error from probe instead. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: dac: m62332: Fix regulator reference count imbalance
m62332_set_value() enables the Vcc regulator on every write of a
non-zero value and disables it on every write of zero, without tracking
the channel's current state. Because the regulator is reference counted,
changing a channel directly from one non-zero value to another enables
it more than once, while a later write of zero disables it only once.
The reference count never returns to zero and the regulator is left
enabled indefinitely.
Only enable the regulator on the transition from zero to non-zero, and
only disable it on the transition from non-zero to zero, using the
previously stored channel value to detect the edge. Balance the
regulator on the I2C error path so the reference count stays consistent
if the write fails. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: light: apds9306: fix PM reference leak in apds9306_read_data()
apds9306_read_data() calls pm_runtime_resume_and_get() but several
error paths return directly without calling pm_runtime_put_autosuspend(),
leaking the runtime PM reference and preventing the device from
autosuspending.
Use PM_RUNTIME_ACQUIRE_AUTOSUSPEND() and PM_RUNTIME_ACQUIRE_ERR() to
automatically handle runtime PM reference release on all return paths. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: light: ltrf216a: fix runtime PM reference leak in error path
ltrf216a_get_lux() acquires a runtime PM reference by calling
ltrf216a_set_power_state(data, true). However, if
ltrf216a_read_data() fails, the function returns immediately without
dropping the reference.
This leaves the runtime PM usage count unbalanced, preventing the device
from autosuspending after a failed read.
Fix this by releasing the runtime PM reference before returning from the
error path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: nVMX: Ensure KVM_REQ_GET_NESTED_STATE_PAGES is cleared on VM-Exit
Always check and clear KVM_REQ_GET_NESTED_STATE_PAGES when emulating a
nested VM-Exit to ensure the request is cleared, even when KVM was built
with CONFIG_KVM_HYPERV=n, as KVM subtly relies on the "check" to clear
the flag and thus avoid double-mapping the vmcs12 pages, e.g. if KVM
manages to bail from VM-Enter without processing the request, and then
emulates VMLAUNCH or VMRESUME. |
