| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: fix null-ptr-deref when journal load failed.
During the mounting process, if journal_reset() fails because of too short
journal, then lead to jbd2_journal_load() fails with NULL j_sb_buffer.
Subsequently, ocfs2_journal_shutdown() calls
jbd2_journal_flush()->jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail()->
__jbd2_update_log_tail()->jbd2_journal_update_sb_log_tail()
->lock_buffer(journal->j_sb_buffer), resulting in a null-pointer
dereference error.
To resolve this issue, we should check the JBD2_LOADED flag to ensure the
journal was properly loaded. Additionally, use journal instead of
osb->journal directly to simplify the code. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
static_call: Replace pointless WARN_ON() in static_call_module_notify()
static_call_module_notify() triggers a WARN_ON(), when memory allocation
fails in __static_call_add_module().
That's not really justified, because the failure case must be correctly
handled by the well known call chain and the error code is passed
through to the initiating userspace application.
A memory allocation fail is not a fatal problem, but the WARN_ON() takes
the machine out when panic_on_warn is set.
Replace it with a pr_warn(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ppp: do not assume bh is held in ppp_channel_bridge_input()
Networking receive path is usually handled from BH handler.
However, some protocols need to acquire the socket lock, and
packets might be stored in the socket backlog is the socket was
owned by a user process.
In this case, release_sock(), __release_sock(), and sk_backlog_rcv()
might call the sk->sk_backlog_rcv() handler in process context.
sybot caught ppp was not considering this case in
ppp_channel_bridge_input() :

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/xen-netback: prevent UAF in xenvif_flush_hash()
During the list_for_each_entry_rcu iteration call of xenvif_flush_hash,
kfree_rcu does not exist inside the rcu read critical section, so if
kfree_rcu is called when the rcu grace period ends during the iteration,
UAF occurs when accessing head->next after the entry becomes free.
Therefore, to solve this, you need to change it to list_for_each_entry_safe. |

blk_iocost: fix more out of bound shifts

Actual impact of this issue was not identified but I propose to fix the

The proposed fix to prevent those out of bound shifts consist of
precalculating exponent before using it the shift operations by taking
min value from the actual exponent and maximum possible number of bits. |

drm/amd/display: Add null check for top_pipe_to_program in commit_planes_for_stream
This commit addresses a null pointer dereference issue in the
`commit_planes_for_stream` function at line 4140. The issue could occur
when `top_pipe_to_program` is null.
The fix adds a check to ensure `top_pipe_to_program` is not null before
accessing its stream_res. This prevents a null pointer dereference.
Reported by smatch:
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/core/dc.c:4140 commit_planes_for_stream() error: we previously assumed 'top_pipe_to_program' could be null (see line 3906) |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Handle null 'stream_status' in 'planes_changed_for_existing_stream'
This commit adds a null check for 'stream_status' in the function
'planes_changed_for_existing_stream'. Previously, the code assumed
'stream_status' could be null, but did not handle the case where it was
actually null. This could lead to a null pointer dereference.
Reported by smatch:
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/core/dc_resource.c:3784 planes_changed_for_existing_stream() error: we previously assumed 'stream_status' could be null (see line 3774) |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Check null pointers before using dc->clk_mgr
[WHY & HOW]
dc->clk_mgr is null checked previously in the same function, indicating
it might be null.
Passing "dc" to "dc->hwss.apply_idle_power_optimizations", which
dereferences null "dc->clk_mgr". (The function pointer resolves to
"dcn35_apply_idle_power_optimizations".)
This fixes 1 FORWARD_NULL issue reported by Coverity. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Add null check for 'afb' in amdgpu_dm_plane_handle_cursor_update (v2)
This commit adds a null check for the 'afb' variable in the
amdgpu_dm_plane_handle_cursor_update function. Previously, 'afb' was
assumed to be null, but was used later in the code without a null check.
This could potentially lead to a null pointer dereference.
Changes since v1:
- Moved the null check for 'afb' to the line where 'afb' is used. (Alex)
Fixes the below:
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/amdgpu_dm/amdgpu_dm_plane.c:1298 amdgpu_dm_plane_handle_cursor_update() error: we previously assumed 'afb' could be null (see line 1252) |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Check stream before comparing them
[WHAT & HOW]
amdgpu_dm can pass a null stream to dc_is_stream_unchanged. It is
necessary to check for null before dereferencing them.
This fixes 1 FORWARD_NULL issue reported by Coverity. |

drm/amd/display: Fix index out of bounds in DCN30 degamma hardware format translation
This commit addresses a potential index out of bounds issue in the
`cm3_helper_translate_curve_to_degamma_hw_format` function in the DCN30
color management module. The issue could occur when the index 'i'
exceeds the number of transfer function points (TRANSFER_FUNC_POINTS).
The fix adds a check to ensure 'i' is within bounds before accessing the
transfer function points. If 'i' is out of bounds, the function returns
false to indicate an error.

ext4: update orig_path in ext4_find_extent()
In ext4_find_extent(), if the path is not big enough, we free it and set
*orig_path to NULL. But after reallocating and successfully initializing
the path, we don't update *orig_path, in which case the caller gets a
valid path but a NULL ppath, and this may cause a NULL pointer dereference
or a path memory leak. For example:
ext4_split_extent
path = *ppath = 2000
ext4_find_extent
if (depth > path[0].p_maxdepth)
kfree(path = 2000);
*orig_path = path = NULL;
path = kcalloc() = 3000
ext4_split_extent_at(*ppath = NULL)
path = *ppath;
ex = path[depth].p_ext;
// NULL pointer dereference!

resource: fix region_intersects() vs add_memory_driver_managed()
On a system with CXL memory, the resource tree (/proc/iomem) related to
CXL memory may look like something as follows.
490000000-50fffffff : CXL Window 0
490000000-50fffffff : region0
490000000-50fffffff : dax0.0
490000000-50fffffff : System RAM (kmem)
Because drivers/dax/kmem.c calls add_memory_driver_managed() during
onlining CXL memory, which makes "System RAM (kmem)" a descendant of "CXL
Window X". This confuses region_intersects(), which expects all "System
RAM" resources to be at the top level of iomem_resource. This can lead to
bugs.
For example, when the following command line is executed to write some
memory in CXL memory range via /dev/mem,
$ dd if=data of=/dev/mem bs=$((1 << 10)) seek=$((0x490000000 >> 10)) count=1
dd: error writing '/dev/mem': Bad address
1+0 records in
0+0 records out
0 bytes copied, 0.0283507 s, 0.0 kB/s
the command fails as expected. However, the error code is wrong. It
should be "Operation not permitted" instead of "Bad address". More
seriously, the /dev/mem permission checking in devmem_is_allowed() passes
incorrectly. Although the accessing is prevented later because ioremap()
isn't allowed to map system RAM, it is a potential security issue. During
command executing, the following warning is reported in the kernel log for
calling ioremap() on system RAM.
ioremap on RAM at 0x0000000490000000 - 0x0000000490000fff

The details of command execution process are as follows. In the above
resource tree, "System RAM" is a descendant of "CXL Window 0" instead of a
top level resource. So, region_intersects() will report no System RAM
resources in the CXL memory region incorrectly, because it only checks the
top level resources. Consequently, devmem_is_allowed() will return 1
(allow access via /dev/mem) for CXL memory region incorrectly.
Fortunately, ioremap() doesn't allow to map System RAM and reject the
access.
So, region_intersects() needs to be fixed to work correctly with the
resource tree with "System RAM" not at top level as above. To fix it, if
we found a unmatched resource in the top level, we will continue to search
matched resources in its descendant resources. So, we will not miss any
matched resources in resource tree anymore.
In the new implementation, an example resource tree
|------------- "CXL Window 0" ------------|
|-- "System RAM" --|
will behave similar as the following fake resource tree for

ocfs2: fix possible null-ptr-deref in ocfs2_set_buffer_uptodate
When doing cleanup, if flags without OCFS2_BH_READAHEAD, it may trigger
NULL pointer dereference in the following ocfs2_set_buffer_uptodate() if
bh is NULL. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: adp5589-keys - fix NULL pointer dereference
We register a devm action to call adp5589_clear_config() and then pass
the i2c client as argument so that we can call i2c_get_clientdata() in
order to get our device object. However, i2c_set_clientdata() is only
being set at the end of the probe function which means that we'll get a
NULL pointer dereference in case the probe function fails early. |

cachefiles: fix dentry leak in cachefiles_open_file()
A dentry leak may be caused when a lookup cookie and a cull are concurrent:
P1 | P2
-----------------------------------------------------------
cachefiles_lookup_cookie
cachefiles_look_up_object
lookup_one_positive_unlocked
// get dentry
cachefiles_cull
inode->i_flags |= S_KERNEL_FILE;
cachefiles_open_file
cachefiles_mark_inode_in_use
__cachefiles_mark_inode_in_use
can_use = false
if (!(inode->i_flags & S_KERNEL_FILE))
can_use = true
return false
return false
// Returns an error but doesn't put dentry
After that the following WARNING will be triggered when the backend folder
is umounted:

After tracing the scheduling event, it was discovered that the migration
of the "timerlat/1" thread was performed during thread creation. Further
analysis confirmed that it is because the CPU online processing for
osnoise is implemented through workers, which is asynchronous with the
offline processing. When the worker was scheduled to create a thread, the
CPU may has already been removed from the cpu_online_mask during the offline
process, resulting in the inability to select the right CPU:
T1 | T2
[CPUHP_ONLINE] | cpu_device_down()
osnoise_hotplug_workfn() |
| cpus_write_lock()
| takedown_cpu(1)
| cpus_write_unlock()
[CPUHP_OFFLINE] |
cpus_read_lock() |
start_kthread(1) |
cpus_read_unlock() |
To fix this, skip online processing if the CPU is already offline. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vhost/scsi: null-ptr-dereference in vhost_scsi_get_req()
Since commit 3f8ca2e115e5 ("vhost/scsi: Extract common handling code
from control queue handler") a null pointer dereference bug can be
triggered when guest sends an SCSI AN request.
In vhost_scsi_ctl_handle_vq(), `vc.target` is assigned with
`&v_req.tmf.lun[1]` within a switch-case block and is then passed to
vhost_scsi_get_req() which extracts `vc->req` and `tpg`. However, for
a `VIRTIO_SCSI_T_AN_*` request, tpg is not required, so `vc.target` is
set to NULL in this branch. Later, in vhost_scsi_get_req(),
`vc->target` is dereferenced without being checked, leading to a null
pointer dereference bug. This bug can be triggered from guest.
When this bug occurs, the vhost_worker process is killed while holding
`vq->mutex` and the corresponding tpg will remain occupied
indefinitely.
