btrfs: fix race when deleting free space root from the dirty cow roots list
When deleting the free space tree we are deleting the free space root
from the list fs_info->dirty_cowonly_roots without taking the lock that
protects it, which is struct btrfs_fs_info::trans_lock.
This unsynchronized list manipulation may cause chaos if there's another
concurrent manipulation of this list, such as when adding a root to it
with ctree.c:add_root_to_dirty_list().
This can result in all sorts of weird failures caused by a race, such as
the following crash:

fs/ntfs3: Fix OOB read in indx_insert_into_buffer

If the member struct INDEX_BUFFER *index of struct indx_node is
incorrect, that is, the value of __le32 used is greater than the value
of __le32 total in struct INDEX_HDR. Therefore, OOB read occurs when
memmove is called in indx_insert_into_buffer().
Fix this by adding a check in hdr_find_e(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix invalid free tracking in ext4_xattr_move_to_block()
In ext4_xattr_move_to_block(), the value of the extended attribute
which we need to move to an external block may be allocated by
kvmalloc() if the value is stored in an external inode. So at the end
of the function the code tried to check if this was the case by
testing entry->e_value_inum.
However, at this point, the pointer to the xattr entry is no longer
valid, because it was removed from the original location where it had
been stored. So we could end up calling kvfree() on a pointer which
was not allocated by kvmalloc(); or we could also potentially leak
memory by not freeing the buffer when it should be freed. Fix this by
storing whether it should be freed in a separate variable. |

iommufd: Set end correctly when doing batch carry

Driver should not be scheduling any more completion handlers

during the QP destroy, driver may still schedule completion
handlers. This can cause a race where the destroy_cq and poll_cq

ice: fix wrong fallback logic for FDIR
When adding a FDIR filter, if ice_vc_fdir_set_irq_ctx returns failure,
the inserted fdir entry will not be removed and if ice_vc_fdir_write_fltr
returns failure, the fdir context info for irq handler will not be cleared
which may lead to inconsistent or memory leak issue. This patch refines
failure cases to resolve this issue. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_conn: return ERR_PTR instead of NULL when there is no link
hci_connect_sco currently returns NULL when there is no link (i.e. when
hci_conn_link() returns NULL).
sco_connect() expects an ERR_PTR in case of any error (see line 266 in
sco.c). Thus, hcon set as NULL passes through to sco_conn_add(), which
tries to get hcon->hdev, resulting in dereferencing a NULL pointer as
reported by syzkaller.
The same issue exists for iso_connect_cis() calling hci_connect_cis().
Thus, make hci_connect_sco() and hci_connect_cis() return ERR_PTR
instead of NULL. |

iommufd: Make sure to zero vfio_iommu_type1_info before copying to user
Missed a zero initialization here. Most of the struct is filled with
a copy_from_user(), however minsz for that copy is smaller than the
actual struct by 8 bytes, thus we don't fill the padding. |

RDMA/rxe: Fix the error "trying to register non-static key in rxe_cleanup_task"
In the function rxe_create_qp(), rxe_qp_from_init() is called to
initialize qp, internally things like rxe_init_task are not setup until
rxe_qp_init_req().
If an error occurred before this point then the unwind will call
rxe_cleanup() and eventually to rxe_qp_do_cleanup()/rxe_cleanup_task()
which will oops when trying to access the uninitialized spinlock.
If rxe_init_task is not executed, rxe_cleanup_task will not be called. |

The reproducer is running a balance and a cancel or pause in parallel.
The way balance finishes is a bit wonky, if we were paused we need to
save the balance_ctl in the fs_info, but clear it otherwise and cleanup.
However we rely on the return values being specific errors, or having a
cancel request or no pause request. If balance completes and returns 0,
but we have a pause or cancel request we won't do the appropriate
cleanup, and then the next time we try to start a balance we'll trip
this ASSERT.
The error handling is just wrong here, we always want to clean up,
unless we got -ECANCELLED and we set the appropriate pause flag in the
exclusive op. With this patch the reproducer ran for an hour without
tripping, previously it would trip in less than a few minutes. |

net: fix stack overflow when LRO is disabled for virtual interfaces
When the virtual interface's feature is updated, it synchronizes the
updated feature for its own lower interface.
This propagation logic should be worked as the iteration, not recursively.
But it works recursively due to the netdev notification unexpectedly.
This problem occurs when it disables LRO only for the team and bonding
interface type.
team0
|
+------+------+-----+-----+
| | | | |
team1 team2 team3 ... team200
If team0's LRO feature is updated, it generates the NETDEV_FEAT_CHANGE
event to its own lower interfaces(team1 ~ team200).
It is worked by netdev_sync_lower_features().
So, the NETDEV_FEAT_CHANGE notification logic of each lower interface
work iteratively.
But generated NETDEV_FEAT_CHANGE event is also sent to the upper
interface too.
upper interface(team0) generates the NETDEV_FEAT_CHANGE event for its own
lower interfaces again.
lower and upper interfaces receive this event and generate this
event again and again.
So, the stack overflow occurs.
But it is not the infinite loop issue.
Because the netdev_sync_lower_features() updates features before
generating the NETDEV_FEAT_CHANGE event.
Already synchronized lower interfaces skip notification logic.
So, it is just the problem that iteration logic is changed to the
recursive unexpectedly due to the notification mechanism.
Reproducer:
ip link add team0 type team
ethtool -K team0 lro on
for i in {1..200}
do
ip link add team$i master team0 type team
ethtool -K team$i lro on
done
ethtool -K team0 lro off
In order to fix it, the notifier_ctx member of bonding/team is introduced. |

virtio_vdpa: build affinity masks conditionally
We try to build affinity mask via create_affinity_masks()
unconditionally which may lead several issues:
- the affinity mask is not used for parent without affinity support
(only VDUSE support the affinity now)
- the logic of create_affinity_masks() might not work for devices
other than block. For example it's not rare in the networking device
where the number of queues could exceed the number of CPUs. Such
case breaks the current affinity logic which is based on
group_cpus_evenly() who assumes the number of CPUs are not less than
the number of groups. This can trigger a warning[1]:
if (ret >= 0)
WARN_ON(nr_present + nr_others < numgrps);
Fixing this by only build the affinity masks only when
- Driver passes affinity descriptor, driver like virtio-blk can make
sure to limit the number of queues when it exceeds the number of CPUs
- Parent support affinity setting config ops
This help to avoid the warning. More optimizations could be done on
top.

vmci_host: fix a race condition in vmci_host_poll() causing GPF

Example thread interleaving that causes the general protection fault
is as follows:
CPU1 (vmci_host_poll) CPU2 (vmci_host_do_init_context)
----- -----
// Read uninitialized context
context = vmci_host_dev->context;
// Initialize context
vmci_host_dev->context = vmci_ctx_create();
vmci_host_dev->ct_type = VMCIOBJ_CONTEXT;
if (vmci_host_dev->ct_type == VMCIOBJ_CONTEXT) {
// Dereferencing the wrong pointer
poll_wait(..., &context->host_context);
}
In this scenario, vmci_host_poll() reads vmci_host_dev->context first,
and then reads vmci_host_dev->ct_type to check that
vmci_host_dev->context is initialized. However, since these two reads
are not atomically executed, there is a chance of a race condition as
described above.
To fix this race condition, read vmci_host_dev->context after checking
the value of vmci_host_dev->ct_type so that vmci_host_poll() always
reads an initialized context. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
binder: fix memory leak in binder_init()
In binder_init(), the destruction of binder_alloc_shrinker_init() is not
performed in the wrong path, which will cause memory leaks. So this commit
introduces binder_alloc_shrinker_exit() and calls it in the wrong path to
fix that. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/core: Fix GID entry ref leak when create_ah fails
If AH create request fails, release sgid_attr to avoid GID entry
referrence leak reported while releasing GID table |
