| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: fix driver-set TX rates on old devices
On old devices such as 7265D, rates are still encoded in version 1
format, which doesn't use the CCK/OFDM rate index (0-3/0-7) but
rather their PLCP value (e.g. 10 for 1 Mbps CCK rate.)
While introducing v3 rates, I changed the driver from internally
handling v1 rates and converting to v2, to internally handling v3
and converting to v1 or v2 according to the firmware. I accordingly
changed the code in iwl_mvm_mac80211_idx_to_hwrate() to no longer
have different values for different APIs. This was correct.
However, I later reverted this part of the change, because it was
reported that I had broken beacon rates, causing a FW assert/crash.
This caused TX_CMD rates to be set incorrectly, potentially causing
a warning when reported back from the device as having been used.
Fix this (hopefully correctly now) by handling beacon rates in the
TX_CMD that's embedded in the beacon template command separately.
Restore iwl_mvm_mac80211_idx_to_hwrate() to return only the rate
index, not PLCP value, fixing the real TX_CMD. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: iwlwifi: mld: stop TX during firmware restart
When iwlwifi firmware crashes (e.g., NMI_INTERRUPT_UNKNOWN on Intel
BE201/Wi-Fi 7), iwl_mld_nic_error() sets mld->fw_status.in_hw_restart
to true. However, iwl_mld_tx_from_txq() does not check this flag before
dequeuing frames from mac80211 and pushing them to the transport layer.
Since the firmware is dead, iwl_trans_tx() returns -EIO for each frame,
which then gets freed immediately. Under high-throughput conditions
(e.g., Tailscale UDP traffic or active SSH sessions), this creates a
tight dequeue-send-fail-free loop that wastes CPU cycles and generates
rapid skb allocation churn, leading to memory pressure from slab
fragmentation.
The RX path already has this guard (iwl_mld_rx_mpdu checks
in_hw_restart at rx.c:1906), and so does the TXQ allocation worker
(iwl_mld_add_txqs_wk at tx.c:156). Add the same guard to
iwl_mld_tx_from_txq() to stop all TX during firmware restart.
Frames left in mac80211's TXQs are naturally drained after restart
completes, when queue reallocation triggers iwl_mld_tx_from_txq()
via iwl_mld_add_txq_list(), or when new upper-layer traffic invokes
wake_tx_queue.
Tested on ASUS Zenbook 14 UX3405CA with Intel BE201 (Wi-Fi 7) on
kernel 6.19.5 where the firmware crashes approximately every 10-15
minutes under Tailscale traffic. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: cfg80211: advance loop vars in cfg80211_merge_profile()
cfg80211_merge_profile() reassembles a Multi-BSSID non-transmitted BSS
profile that has been split across multiple consecutive MBSSID elements.
Its while-loop calls
cfg80211_get_profile_continuation(ie, ielen, mbssid_elem, sub_elem)
but never advances mbssid_elem or sub_elem inside the body. Each
iteration therefore searches for a continuation that follows the same
fixed pair; the helper returns the same next_mbssid; and the same
next_sub bytes are memcpy()'d into merged_ie at a growing offset until
the buffer fills.
Advance both mbssid_elem and sub_elem to the just-consumed continuation
so the next call to cfg80211_get_profile_continuation() searches for a
further continuation beyond it (or returns NULL when none exists).
A specially-crafted malicious beacon can take advantage of this bug
to cause the kernel to spend an excessive amount of time in
cfg80211_merge_profile (up to as much as 2ms per beacon received),
which could theoretically be abused in some way. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Do not call map->ops->elt_free() if elt_alloc() fails
In paths where tracing_map_elt_alloc() failed to allocate objects,
the map->ops->elt_alloc() call was never successful. In this case,
map->ops->elt_free() should not be called. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: SVM: Disable AVIC IPI virtualization on Hygon Family 18h (erratum #1235)
Hygon Family 18h CPUs are derived from AMD Family 17h (Zen1) silicon and
share the same erratum #1235: hardware may read a stale IsRunning=1 bit
during ICR write emulation and silently fail to generate an
AVIC_IPI_FAILURE_TARGET_NOT_RUNNING VM-Exit on the sending vCPU.
The absence of the VM-Exit causes KVM to miss the required wakeup of
blocking target vCPUs, leading to hung vCPUs and unbounded delays in
guest execution.
Extend the existing AMD Family 17h erratum #1235 workaround to also cover
Hygon Family 18h. With IPI virtualization disabled, KVM never sets
IsRunning=1 in the Physical ID table, so every non-self IPI generates a
VM-Exit and is correctly emulated. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: tegra: fix pm_runtime leak on mutex_lock failure
If tegra_i2c_mutex_lock() fails, the function returns without calling
pm_runtime_put(), leaking the runtime PM reference acquired by the
preceding pm_runtime_get_sync(). This prevents the device from ever
entering runtime suspend.
Add the missing pm_runtime_put() before returning on lock failure. |

spi: qup: fix error pointer deref after DMA setup failure
The driver falls back to PIO mode if DMA setup fails during probe.
Make sure to the clear the DMA channel pointers on setup failure to
avoid dereferencing an error pointer (or attempting to release a channel
a second time) on later probe errors or driver unbind.

conversion patch. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kho: skip KHO for crash kernel
kho_fill_kimage() unconditionally populates the kimage with KHO
metadata for every kexec image type. When the image is a crash kernel,
this can be problematic as the crash kernel can run in a small reserved
region and the KHO scratch areas can sit outside it.
The crash kernel then faults during kho_memory_init() when it
tries phys_to_virt() on the KHO FDT address:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address xxxxxxxx
...
fdt_offset_ptr+...
fdt_check_node_offset_+...
fdt_first_property_offset+...
fdt_get_property_namelen_+...
fdt_getprop+...
kho_memory_init+...
mm_core_init+...
start_kernel+...
kho_locate_mem_hole() already skips KHO logic for KEXEC_TYPE_CRASH
images, but kho_fill_kimage() was missing the same guard. As
kho_fill_kimage() is the single point that populates image->kho.fdt
and image->kho.scratch, fixing it here is sufficient for both arm64
and x86 as the FDT and boot_params path are bailing out when these
fields are unset. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_ffa: Check for NULL FF-A ID table while driver registration
The bus match callback assumes that every FF-A driver provides an
id_table and dereferences it unconditionally. Enforce that contract at
registration time so a buggy client driver cannot crash the bus during
match. |

ARM: integrator: Fix early initialization
Starting with commit bdb249fce9ad4 ("ARM: integrator: read counter using
syscon/regmap"), intcp_init_early calls syscon_regmap_lookup_by_compatible
which in turn calls of_syscon_register. This function allocates memory.
Since the memory management code has not been initialized at that time,
the call always fails. It either returns -ENOMEM or crashes as follows.

The crash is seen due to a dereferenced pointer which is not supposed to be
NULL but is NULL if the memory management subsystem has not been
initialized. The crash is not seen with all versions of gcc. Some versions
such as gcc 9.x apparently do not dereference the pointer, presumably if
tracing is disabled. The problem has been reproduced with gcc 10.x, 11.x,
and 13.x. Either case, if the crash is not seen, the call to
syscon_regmap_lookup_by_compatible returns -ENOMEM, and
sched_clock_register is never called.
Fix the problem by moving the early initialization code into the standard
machine initialization code. |

btrfs: tracepoints: fix sleep while in atomic context in btrfs_sync_file()
The trace event btrfs_sync_file() is called in an atomic context (all trace
events are) and its call to dput(), which is needed due to the call to
dget_parent(), can sleep, triggering a kernel splat.
This can be reproduced by enabling the trace event and running btrfs/056
from fstests for example. The splat shown in dmesg is the following:

its equivalent trace event ext4_sync_file_enter(). |

test_kprobes: clear kprobes between test runs
Running the kprobes sanity tests twice makes all tests fail and
eventually crashes the kernel.

...
Unable to handle kernel paging request ...
The testsuite defines several kprobes and kretprobes as static variables
that are preserved across test runs.
After register_kprobe and unregister_kprobe, a kprobe contains some
leftover data that must be cleared before the kprobe can be registered
again. The tests are setting symbol_name to define the probe location.
Address and flags must be cleared.
The existing code clears some of the probes between subsequent tests, but
not between two test runs. The leftover data from a previous test run
makes the registrations fail in the next run.
Move the cleanups for all kprobes into kprobes_test_init, this function
is called before each single test (including the first test of a test
run). |

idpf: fix read_dev_clk_lock spinlock init in idpf_ptp_init()
In idpf_ptp_init(), read_dev_clk_lock is initialized after
ptp_schedule_worker() had already been called (and after
idpf_ptp_settime64() could reach the lock). The PTP aux worker
fires immediately upon scheduling and can call into
idpf_ptp_read_src_clk_reg_direct(), which takes
spin_lock(&ptp->read_dev_clk_lock) on an uninitialized lock, triggering
the lockdep "non-static key" warning:

Fix potential tearing in using ->remote_i_size and ->zero_point by copying
i_size_read() and i_size_write() and using the same seqcount as for i_size.
We need to make sure that netfslib and the filesystems that use it always

from getting corrupted. |

netfs: Fix zeropoint update where i_size > remote_i_size
Fix the update of the zero point[*] by netfs_release_folio() when there is
uncommitted data in the pagecache beyond the folio being released but the
on-server EOF is in this folio (ie. i_size > remote_i_size). The update
needs to limit zero_point to remote_i_size, not i_size as i_size is a local
phenomenon reflecting updates made locally to the pagecache, not stuff
written to the server. remote_i_size tracks the server's i_size.
[*] The zero point is the file position from which we can assume that the
server will just return zeros, so we can avoid generating reads.
Note that netfs_invalidate_folio() probably doesn't need fixing as
zero_point should be updated by setattr after truncation or fallocate.

netfs: Fix write streaming disablement if fd open O_RDWR
In netfs_perform_write(), "write streaming" (the caching of dirty data in
dirty but !uptodate folios) is performed to avoid the need to read data
that is just going to get immediately overwritten. However, this is/will
be disabled in three circumstances: if the fd is open O_RDWR, if fscache is
in use (as we need to round out the blocks for DIO) or if content
encryption is enabled (again for rounding out purposes).
The idea behind disabling it if the fd is open O_RDWR is that we'd need to
flush the write-streaming page before we could read the data, particularly
through mmap. But netfs now fills in the gaps if ->read_folio() is called
on the page, so that is unnecessary. Further, this doesn't actually work
if a separate fd is open for reading.
Fix this by removing the check for O_RDWR, thereby allowing streaming
writes even when we might read.
This caused a number of problems with the generic/522 xfstest, but those
are now fixed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfs: Fix partial invalidation of streaming-write folio
In netfs_invalidate_folio(), if the region of a partial invalidation
overlaps the front (but not all) of a dirty write cached in a streaming
write page (dirty, but not uptodate, with the dirty region tracked by a
netfs_folio struct), the function modifies the dirty region - but
incorrectly as it moves the region forward by setting the start to the
start, not the end, of the invalidation region.
Fix this by setting finfo->dirty_offset to the end of the invalidation
region (iend). |
