iio: adc: ad_sigma_delta: fix clear_pending_event for registerless devices
ad_sigma_delta_clear_pending_event() falls through to the status register
read path for devices with has_registers = false and no rdy_gpiod. For
such devices, ad_sd_read_reg() skips the address byte entirely and clocks
raw MISO bytes with no address phase — making it byte-for-byte identical
to reading conversion data. If a pending conversion result is present,
this partially consumes it and corrupts the data stream for the subsequent
ad_sd_read_reg() call in ad_sigma_delta_single_conversion().
Furthermore, with num_resetclks = 0 on these devices, data_read_len
evaluates to 0. If the clocked byte has bit 7 clear, pending_event is set
and the code attempts memset(data + 2, 0xff, 0 - 1), overflowing to
SIZE_MAX and corrupting the heap.
Fix by returning 0 immediately when neither rdy_gpiod nor has_registers
is set. This is safe for all current registerless devices: ad7191 and
ad7780 (with powerdown GPIO) are reset between conversions by CS
deassertion, so there is no stale result to drain; ad7780 (without
powerdown GPIO) and max11205 are continuously-converting and cycle ~DRDY
at the output data rate regardless of whether the previous result was
read, so the next falling edge fires naturally.
A future registerless device that holds ~DRDY asserted until data is read
would be broken by this early return and would require either
num_resetclks set or a rdy-gpio.
The same heap corruption is reachable on any device with rdy_gpiod set
but num_resetclks = 0: if the GPIO indicates a pending event, the drain
path executes memset(data + 2, 0xff, 0 - 1) regardless of has_registers.
Add an explicit data_read_len == 0 guard after the pending event check;
the stale result is then consumed by the first ad_sd_read_reg() call in
ad_sigma_delta_single_conversion(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: adc: ad_sigma_delta: fix CS held asserted and state leaks
In ad_sigma_delta_single_conversion(), set_mode(AD_SD_MODE_IDLE) and
disable_one() were called from the out: block while keep_cs_asserted
was still true. This caused any SPI transfer issued by those callbacks
to carry cs_change=1, leaving CS permanently asserted after the
conversion. Fix by moving both calls into the out_unlock: block, after
keep_cs_asserted is cleared, matching the pattern already used in
ad_sd_calibrate().
In the error path of ad_sd_buffer_postenable(), if an operation fails
after set_mode(AD_SD_MODE_CONTINUOUS) has already succeeded (e.g.
spi_offload_trigger_enable()), the device is left in continuous
conversion mode with CS physically asserted. Additionally,
bus_locked remaining true after spi_bus_unlock() causes subsequent
SPI operations to call spi_sync_locked() without the bus lock actually
held, allowing concurrent SPI access.
Fix the error path by clearing keep_cs_asserted first, then calling
set_mode(AD_SD_MODE_IDLE) to revert the device mode and deassert CS,
then clearing bus_locked before releasing the bus.
For devices that implement neither set_mode nor disable_one (such as
MAX11205, which has no physical CS pin), no SPI transfer is issued
during cleanup and the cs_change flag has no effect on any physical
line. |

iio: event: Fix event FIFO reset race
`iio_event_getfd()` creates the event file descriptor with
`anon_inode_getfd()`, which allocates a new fd, creates the anonymous
file and installs it in the process fd table before returning to the
caller.
The IIO code resets the event FIFO after `anon_inode_getfd()` has returned,
but before `IIO_GET_EVENT_FD_IOCTL` has copied the fd number to userspace.
But since fd tables are shared between threads, another thread can guess
the newly allocated fd number and issue a `read()` on it as soon as the fd
has been installed.
This means the `kfifo_to_user()` in `iio_event_chrdev_read()` can run in
parallel with the `kfifo_reset_out()` in `iio_event_getfd()`.
The kfifo documentation says that `kfifo_reset_out()` is only safe when it
is called from the reader thread and there is only one concurrent reader.
Otherwise it is dangerous and must be handled in the same way as
`kfifo_reset()`.
If that happens, `kfifo_to_user()` can advance the FIFO `out` index based
on state from before the reset, after the reset has already moved the `out`
index to the current `in` index. That can leave the FIFO with an `out`
index past the `in` index. A later `read()` can then see an underflowed
FIFO length and copy more data than the event FIFO buffer contains. This
can result in an out-of-bounds read and leak adjacent kernel memory to
userspace.
Move the FIFO reset before `anon_inode_getfd()`. At that point the event fd is
marked busy, but the new fd has not been installed yet, so userspace cannot
access it while the FIFO is reset. |

binder: fix UAF in binder_free_transaction()
In binder_free_transaction(), the t->to_proc is read under the t->lock.
However, once the t->lock is dropped, the to_proc can die in parallel.
This leads to a use-after-free error when we attempt to acquire its
inner lock right afterwards:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rust_binder: use a u64 stride when cleaning up the offsets array
Allocation's Drop walks the offsets array (binder_size_t = u64 entries),
cleaning up the objects, but it used usize instead of u64 for both the
stride and the per-entry read.
On 64-bit kernels (usize == u64) this is harmless, but on 32-bit kernels
it walks the 8-byte entries in 4-byte steps, iterating an N-entry array
2N times, and reads the always-zero high word as offset 0, cleaning up
the object at offset 0 N extra times. As a result the referenced node or
handle ends up with a lower reference count than it actually has (a
refcount over-decrement), and binder's reference accounting is corrupted;
for example, the owner can be notified of a strong reference release
(BR_RELEASE) even though references still remain.
Change the stride to u64, and read each entry as a u64, narrowing it to
usize with try_into().
On 32-bit ARM, when this over-decrement would drive a count below zero,
the driver's existing refcount guard refuses it and fires:
rust_binder: Failure: refcount underflow! |

tcp: restore RCU grace period in tcp_ao_destroy_sock
Commit 51e547e8c89c ("tcp: Free TCP-AO/TCP-MD5 info/keys without RCU")
removed the call_rcu() callback from tcp_ao_destroy_sock(), arguing that
"the destruction of info/keys is delayed until the socket destructor"
and therefore "no one can discover it anymore".
That argument does not hold for the call site in tcp_connect()
(net/ipv4/tcp_output.c:4327-4332). At that point the socket is in
TCP_SYN_SENT, has already been inserted into the inet ehash by
inet_hash_connect() in tcp_v4_connect(), and is therefore very much
discoverable: any softirq running tcp_v4_rcv() on another CPU can take
the socket out of the ehash, walk into tcp_inbound_hash(), and load
tp->ao_info via implicit RCU before bh_lock_sock_nested() is taken on
the destroying CPU.
The reader path then enters __tcp_ao_do_lookup() (net/ipv4/tcp_ao.c:208)
which re-loads tp->ao_info via rcu_dereference_check(); the re-load can
still observe the (about-to-be-freed) pointer because there is no
synchronize_rcu() between rcu_assign_pointer(tp->ao_info, NULL) and
tcp_ao_info_free() in tcp_ao_destroy_sock(). The captured pointer is
then walked at line 223:
hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(key, &ao->head, node, ...)
The writer's synchronous kfree() is free to complete between the line
218 re-fetch and the line 223 hlist iteration. The slab is reused
(or simply LIST_POISON1-stamped if not yet reused) and the iteration
walks attacker-controlled or poison memory in softirq context.
Reproducer (no debug shim, stock x86_64 v7.1-rc2 SMP+KASAN, QEMU+KVM):
an unprivileged uid=1000 process inside CLONE_NEWUSER|CLONE_NEWNET
installs TCP_MD5SIG + TCP_AO_ADD_KEY on a TCP socket, sprays forged
TCP-AO segments toward its eventual 4-tuple via raw sockets, then
calls connect(). The md5-wins reconciliation in tcp_connect() fires
tcp_ao_destroy_sock(); the softirq backlog reader on the loopback
NAPI path crashes on the freed ao->head.first walk:

Restore the RCU grace period: re-add struct rcu_head to tcp_ao_info
and replace the synchronous tcp_ao_info_free() with a call_rcu()
callback. Readers that captured tp->ao_info before rcu_assign_pointer
NULLed it now see the object remain valid until rcu_read_unlock().
With the patch applied the reproducer runs cleanly for 2000 iterations
on the same kernel build. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwrng: virtio: clamp device-reported used.len at copy_data()
random_recv_done() stores the device-reported used.len directly into
vi->data_avail. copy_data() then indexes vi->data[] using
vi->data_idx (advanced by previous copy_data() calls) and issues a
memcpy() without re-validating either value against the posted
buffer size sizeof(vi->data) (SMP_CACHE_BYTES bytes, typically 32
or 64).
A malicious or buggy virtio-rng backend can set used.len beyond
sizeof(vi->data), steering the memcpy() past the end of the inline
array into adjacent kmalloc-1k slab bytes. hwrng_fillfn() mixes
those bytes into the guest RNG, and guest root can also observe
them directly via /dev/hwrng.
Concrete impact is inside the guest:
- Memory-safety / hardening: any virtio-rng backend that
over-reports used.len causes the driver to read past vi->data
into unrelated slab contents. hwrng_fillfn() is a kernel thread
that runs as soon as the device is probed; no guest userspace
interaction is required to first-trigger the OOB.
- Cross-boundary leak (confidential-compute threat model): a
malicious hypervisor cooperating with a malicious or compromised
guest root userspace can use /dev/hwrng as a leak channel for
guest-kernel heap data. The host sets a large used.len, guest
root reads /dev/hwrng, and the returned bytes contain guest
kernel slab contents that were adjacent to vi->data. In
practice, confidential-compute guests (SEV-SNP, TDX) usually
disable virtio-rng entirely, so this path is narrow, but the
fix is still worth carrying because the underlying
memory-safety bug contaminates the guest RNG on any host.
KASAN confirms the OOB on a 7.1-rc4 guest whose virtio-rng backend
has been patched to report used.len = 0x10000:

usb9pfs_rx_complete() against unchecked device-reported length in
the USB 9p transport.
With the clamp at point of use and array_index_nospec() in place,
the same harness boots cleanly: copy_data() returns zero for the
bogus report, the device-supplied bytes after data_idx are
discarded, and the driver issues a fresh request. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
6lowpan: fix NHC entry use-after-free on error path
lowpan_nhc_do_uncompression() looks up an NHC descriptor while holding
lowpan_nhc_lock. If the descriptor has no uncompress callback, the error
path drops the lock before printing nhc->name.
lowpan_nhc_del() removes descriptors under the same lock and then relies
on synchronize_net() before the owning module can be unloaded. That only
waits for net RX RCU readers. lowpan_header_decompress() is also exported
and can be reached from callers that are not necessarily covered by the net
core RX critical section, for example the Bluetooth 6LoWPAN L2CAP receive
path.
This leaves a race where one task drops lowpan_nhc_lock in the error path,
another task unregisters and frees the matching descriptor after
synchronize_net() returns, and the first task then dereferences nhc->name
for the warning.
With the post-unlock window widened, KASAN reports:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in lowpan_nhc_do_uncompression+0x1f4/0x220

Fix this by printing the warning before dropping lowpan_nhc_lock, so the
descriptor name is read while unregister is still excluded. The malformed
packet is still rejected with -ENOTSUPP. |

tipc: fix out-of-bounds read in broadcast Gap ACK blocks
A broadcast PROTOCOL/STATE_MSG can carry a Gap ACK blocks record in its
data area. tipc_get_gap_ack_blks() only verifies that the record's len
field is self-consistent with its ugack_cnt/bgack_cnt counts
(sz == struct_size(p, gacks, ugack_cnt + bgack_cnt)); it does not check
that the record actually fits in the message data area, msg_data_sz().
The unicast caller tipc_link_proto_rcv() bounds it ("if (glen > dlen)
break;"), but the broadcast caller tipc_bcast_sync_rcv() discards the
returned size, so tipc_link_advance_transmq() copies the record off the
receive skb with an attacker-controlled count:
this_ga = kmemdup(ga, struct_size(ga, gacks, ga->bgack_cnt),
GFP_ATOMIC);
A TIPC neighbour that negotiated TIPC_GAP_ACK_BLOCK triggers it with one
ordinary broadcast STATE_MSG (msg_bc_ack_invalid() clear), sized so its
data area is short, carrying a Gap ACK record with len = 0x400,
bgack_cnt = 0xff and ugack_cnt = 0. len then equals
struct_size(p, gacks, 255), so the consistency check passes and ga is
non-NULL; kmemdup() reads struct_size(ga, gacks, 255) = 1024 bytes out
of the much smaller skb:

The copied-out bytes are subsequently consumed as gap/ack values, but
the read is already out of bounds at the kmemdup() regardless of how
they are used.
The unicast STATE path drops such a message: "if (glen > dlen) break;"
skips the rest of STATE_MSG handling and the skb is freed. Make the
broadcast path drop it too. tipc_bcast_sync_rcv() now bounds the record
against msg_data_sz() and, when it does not fit, reports it back through
tipc_node_bc_sync_rcv() to tipc_rcv() so the skb is discarded rather than
processed. ga is not cleared on this path: ga == NULL already means
"legacy peer without Selective ACK", a distinct legitimate state. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: vme_user: bound slave read/write to the kern_buf size
The SLAVE-path helpers buffer_to_user() and buffer_from_user() copy
'count' bytes into/out of the fixed-size kern_buf (size_buf ==
PCI_BUF_SIZE == 0x20000, 128 KiB) using *ppos as the offset, without
bounding *ppos + count against size_buf.
vme_user_write()/vme_user_read() only clamp count to the VME window size
(image_size = vme_get_size(resource)), which VME_SET_SLAVE sets from the
user-supplied slave.size -- validated against the VME address space (up
to VME_A32_MAX = 4 GiB), not against PCI_BUF_SIZE. When the window
exceeds 128 KiB, a write()/read() copies past the kern_buf allocation.
Clamp count against size_buf in both helpers, with an early return when
*ppos is already at/after the buffer end. *ppos is >= 0 here (the caller
rejects negative offsets), so size_buf - *ppos cannot wrap. This mirrors
the existing clamp in the MASTER-path helpers resource_to_user() /
resource_from_user(), and matches the read()/write() convention of a
short transfer at end-of-buffer.
Found by static analysis (CodeQL taint tracking + CBMC bounded model
checking) and confirmed dynamically under KASAN with the vme_fake bridge:

smb: client: restrict implied bcc[0] exemption to responses without data area
smb2_check_message() has a long-standing quirk that accepts a response
whose calculated length is one byte larger than the bytes actually
received ("server can return one byte more due to implied bcc[0]").
This was introduced to accommodate servers that omit the trailing bcc[0]
overlap byte when no data area is present.
However, the exemption is applied unconditionally, regardless of whether
the command actually carries a data area (has_smb2_data_area[]). When a
response with a data area is subject to the +1 exemption, the reported
data can extend one byte beyond the bytes actually received, yet
smb2_check_message() still accepts it. The subsequent decoder then reads
past the end of the receive buffer. This is reachable during NEGOTIATE
and SESSION_SETUP, before the session is established.
The resulting out-of-bounds reads are visible under KASAN when mounting
against a non-conforming server; both the SPNEGO/negTokenInit and the
NTLMSSP challenge decoders are affected:

staging: media: ipu7: fix double-free and use-after-free in error paths
In both ipu7_isys_init() and ipu7_psys_init(), pdata is allocated and
then passed to ipu7_bus_initialize_device(), which stores it in
adev->pdata. The ipu7_bus_release() function frees adev->pdata when the
device's reference count drops to zero.
Two error paths incorrectly call kfree(pdata) after the device teardown
has already freed it:
1. When ipu7_mmu_init() fails: put_device() is called, which drops the
reference count to zero and triggers ipu7_bus_release() ->
kfree(pdata). The subsequent kfree(pdata) is a double-free.
2. When ipu7_bus_add_device() fails: it calls auxiliary_device_uninit()
internally, which calls put_device() -> ipu7_bus_release() ->
kfree(pdata). The subsequent kfree(pdata) is again a double-free.
Note that the kfree(pdata) when ipu7_bus_initialize_device() itself
fails is correct, because in that case auxiliary_device_init() failed
and the release function was never set up, so pdata must be freed
manually.
Additionally, the error code was not saved before calling put_device(),
causing ERR_CAST() to dereference the already-freed adev pointer when
constructing the return value. Fix this by saving the error from
dev_err_probe() before put_device() and returning ERR_PTR() instead.
Remove the redundant kfree(pdata) calls and fix the use-after-free in
the return values of the two affected error paths. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: rtl8723bs: fix WEP length underflow and OOB read in OnAuth()
OnAuth() has two bugs in the shared-key authentication path.
When the Privacy bit is set, rtw_wep_decrypt() is called without
verifying that the frame is long enough to contain a valid WEP IV and
ICV. Inside rtw_wep_decrypt(), length is computed as:
length = len - WLAN_HDR_A3_LEN - iv_len
and then passed as (length - 4) to crc32_le(). If len is less than
WLAN_HDR_A3_LEN + iv_len + icv_len (32 bytes), length - 4 is negative
and, after the implicit cast to size_t, causes crc32_le() to read far
beyond the frame buffer. Add a minimum length check before accessing
the IV field and calling the decryption path.
When processing a seq=3 response, rtw_get_ie() stores the Challenge
Text IE length in ie_len, but the subsequent memcmp() always reads 128
bytes regardless of ie_len. IEEE 802.11 mandates a challenge text of
exactly 128 bytes; reject any IE whose length field differs, matching
the check already applied to OnAuthClient(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB read in OnAssocRsp() IE loop
The IE parsing loop in OnAssocRsp() advances by (pIE->length + 2) each
iteration but only guards on i < pkt_len. When a malicious AP sends an
AssocResponse whose last IE has only one byte remaining in the frame
(the element_id byte lands at pkt_len-1), the loop reads pIE->length
from pframe[pkt_len], which is one byte past the allocated receive buffer.
Additionally, even when the header bytes are in bounds, pIE->length
itself can extend the data window beyond pkt_len, silently passing a
truncated IE to the handler functions.
Add two guards at the top of the loop body:
1. Break if fewer than sizeof(*pIE) bytes remain (can't read header).
2. Break if the IE's declared data extends past pkt_len. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB reads in rtw_get_sec_ie(), rtw_get_wapi_ie(), and rtw_get_wps_attr()
Three IE/attribute parsing functions have missing bounds checks.
rtw_get_sec_ie() and rtw_get_wapi_ie() iterate over a raw IE buffer
without verifying that the header bytes (tag + length) are within the
remaining buffer before reading them. Additionally, rtw_get_sec_ie()
compares the 4-byte WPA OUI at cnt+2 without checking that at least
6 bytes remain, and rtw_get_wapi_ie() compares a 4-byte WAPI OUI at
cnt+6 without checking that at least 10 bytes remain.
rtw_get_wps_attr() reads wps_ie[0] and wps_ie+2 unconditionally at
entry, before verifying that wps_ielen is large enough to contain
the 6-byte WPS IE header (element_id + length + 4-byte OUI). Inside
the attribute loop, get_unaligned_be16() is called on attr_ptr and
attr_ptr+2 without checking that 4 bytes remain in the buffer.
Add a cnt+2 bounds check before each loop body in rtw_get_sec_ie()
and rtw_get_wapi_ie(), guard each multi-byte comparison with a minimum
IE length requirement, add a wps_ielen < 6 early return in
rtw_get_wps_attr(), and add a 4-byte bounds check in its inner loop. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB write in HT_caps_handler()
HT_caps_handler() iterates pIE->length bytes and writes into
HT_caps.u.HT_cap[], which is a fixed 26-byte array (sizeof struct
HT_caps_element). Because pIE->length is a raw u8 from an over-the-air
802.11 AssocResponse frame and is never validated, a malicious AP can
set it up to 255, causing up to 229 bytes of out-of-bounds writes into
adjacent fields of struct mlme_ext_info.
Truncate the iteration count to the size of HT_caps.u.HT_cap using
umin() so that data from a longer-than-expected IE is silently ignored
rather than written out of bounds, preserving interoperability with APs
that pad the element. An early return on oversized IEs was considered
but rejected: it would bypass the pmlmeinfo->HT_caps_enable = 1
assignment that precedes the loop, silently disabling HT mode for APs
that append extra bytes to the HT Capabilities IE. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: krb5 - filter out async aead implementations at alloc
krb5_aead_encrypt(), krb5_aead_decrypt() in rfc3961_simplified.c and
rfc8009_encrypt(), rfc8009_decrypt() in rfc8009_aes2.c set a NULL
completion callback and treat any negative return from
crypto_aead_{encrypt,decrypt}() as terminal, falling through to
kfree_sensitive(buffer). When the encrypt_name resolves to an
async AEAD instance the request returns -EINPROGRESS, the buffer
is freed while the backend's worker still holds a pointer, and the
worker dereferences the freed slab on completion.
KASAN report under UML+SLUB with a synthetic async aead backend
bound to krb5->encrypt_name:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in t5_stub_complete+0x7d/0xc7
The helpers were written synchronously, so filter the async
instances out at allocation time instead of plumbing
crypto_wait_req() through every call site.
Reachable via net/rxrpc/rxgk.c, fs/afs/cm_security.c and
net/ceph/crypto.c on systems with an async AEAD provider bound to
the krb5 enctype name. |

ksmbd: fix use-after-free of a deferred file_lock on SMB2_CLOSE then SMB2_CANCEL
Commit f580d27e8928 ("ksmbd: fix use-after-free of a deferred file_lock on
double SMB2_CANCEL") made smb2_cancel() skip a work whose state is
KSMBD_WORK_CANCELLED, so its cancel_fn cannot be fired a second time. But
KSMBD_WORK has three states (ACTIVE, CANCELLED, CLOSED), and the same
freeing producer path is reached for CLOSED too:
SMB2_CLOSE on the locking handle -> set_close_state_blocked_works() sets
the deferred work's state to KSMBD_WORK_CLOSED and wakes the smb2_lock()
worker. The worker takes the non-ACTIVE early-exit, locks_free_lock()s
the file_lock and, because the state is not KSMBD_WORK_CANCELLED, takes
the STATUS_RANGE_NOT_LOCKED branch with "goto out2" -- which, like the
cancelled branch, skips release_async_work(). The work stays on
conn->async_requests with a live cancel_fn = smb2_remove_blocked_lock
pointing at the freed file_lock.
A subsequent SMB2_CANCEL for the same AsyncId then passes the
KSMBD_WORK_CANCELLED-only guard (its state is KSMBD_WORK_CLOSED), so
smb2_cancel() fires cancel_fn again over the freed file_lock -- the same
use-after-free fixed, via SMB2_CLOSE instead of a first SMB2_CANCEL:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __locks_delete_block
__locks_delete_block
locks_delete_block
ksmbd_vfs_posix_lock_unblock
smb2_remove_blocked_lock
smb2_cancel <- 2nd SMB2_CANCEL fires cancel_fn
handle_ksmbd_work
Allocated by ...: locks_alloc_lock <- smb2_lock
Freed by ...: locks_free_lock <- smb2_lock (non-ACTIVE early-exit)
... cache file_lock_cache of size 192
Reproduced on mainline 7.1-rc7 (which already contains f580d27e8928) with
KASAN by an authenticated SMB client; the double-SMB2_CANCEL control is
silent on that kernel, so the splat is attributable to the CLOSE trigger.
Only an ACTIVE deferred work may have its cancel_fn fired: both terminal
states (CANCELLED and CLOSED) reach the smb2_lock() early-exit that frees
the file_lock and skips release_async_work(). Guard on KSMBD_WORK_ACTIVE
so any non-active work is skipped. |

audit: Fix data races of skb_queue_len() readers on audit_queue
Multiple readers access audit_queue.qlen via skb_queue_len() without
holding the queue lock or using READ_ONCE(), while kauditd writes to
this field via the skb_dequeue() → __skb_unlink() path with WRITE_ONCE()
protected by a spinlock. This constitutes data races.
All affected skb_queue_len(&audit_queue) call sites:
- kauditd_thread() wait_event_freezable() condition
- audit_receive_msg() AUDIT_GET handler (s.backlog assignment)
- audit_receive() backlog check
- audit_log_start() backlog check and pr_warn()

write accesses already present on the writer side.

fs/ntfs3: validate Dirty Page Table capacity in log_replay copy_lcns
In the analysis pass of $LogFile journal replay, log_replay() copies
LCNs from each action log record into an existing Dirty Page Table
(DPT) entry without bounding the destination index. A crafted NTFS
image with DPT entry lcns_follow=1 and an action log record with
lcns_follow=2 produces a kernel slab out-of-bounds write at mount
time:
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in log_replay+0x654c/0xdb60
Write of size 8 at addr ffff8880095e1040 by task mount
Two attacker-controlled fields can drive j+i past the allocated
page_lcns[] array:
1. dp->lcns_follow (capacity) can be smaller than lrh->lcns_follow.
2. lrh->target_vcn may be smaller than dp->vcn, making the u64
subtraction wrap to a huge size_t.
Validate target VCN delta and per-record LCN count against the
DPT entry capacity, bail via the existing out: cleanup label with
-EINVAL.
This mirrors the bounds-check pattern added in commit b2bc7c44ed17
("fs/ntfs3: Fix slab-out-of-bounds read in DeleteIndexEntryRoot")
and commit 0ca0485e4b2e ("fs/ntfs3: validate rec->used in
journal-replay file record check"). |
