nbd: don't allow reconnect after disconnect
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nbd: don't allow reconnect after disconnect
Following process can cause nbd_config UAF:
1) grab nbd_config temporarily;
2) nbd_genl_disconnect() flush all recv_work() and release the
initial reference:
nbd_genl_disconnect
nbd_disconnect_and_put
nbd_disconnect
flush_workqueue(nbd->recv_workq)
if (test_and_clear_bit(NBD_RT_HAS_CONFIG_REF, ...))
nbd_config_put
-> due to step 1), reference is still not zero
3) nbd_genl_reconfigure() queue recv_work() again;
nbd_genl_reconfigure
config = nbd_get_config_unlocked(nbd)
if (!config)
-> succeed
if (!test_bit(NBD_RT_BOUND, ...))
-> succeed
nbd_reconnect_socket
queue_work(nbd->recv_workq, &args->work)
4) step 1) release the reference;
5) Finially, recv_work() will trigger UAF:
recv_work
nbd_config_put(nbd)
-> nbd_config is freed
atomic_dec(&config->recv_threads)
-> UAF
Fix the problem by clearing NBD_RT_BOUND in nbd_genl_disconnect(), so
that nbd_genl_reconfigure() will fail.

padata: fix UAF in padata_reorder
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
padata: fix UAF in padata_reorder
A bug was found when run ltp test:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in padata_find_next+0x29/0x1a0

If 'mdelay(10)' is added before calling 'padata_find_next' in the
'padata_reorder' function, this issue could be reproduced easily with
ltp test (pcrypt_aead01).
This can be explained as bellow:
pcrypt_aead_encrypt
...
padata_do_parallel
refcount_inc(&pd->refcnt); // add refcnt
...
padata_do_serial
padata_reorder // pd
while (1) {
padata_find_next(pd, true); // using pd
queue_work_on
...
padata_serial_worker crypto_del_alg
padata_put_pd_cnt // sub refcnt
padata_free_shell
padata_put_pd(ps->pd);
// pd is freed
// loop again, but pd is freed
// call padata_find_next, UAF
}
In the padata_reorder function, when it loops in 'while', if the alg is
deleted, the refcnt may be decreased to 0 before entering
'padata_find_next', which leads to UAF.
As mentioned in [1], do_serial is supposed to be called with BHs disabled
and always happen under RCU protection, to address this issue, add
synchronize_rcu() in 'padata_free_shell' wait for all _do_serial calls
to finish.

padata: avoid UAF for reorder_work
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
padata: avoid UAF for reorder_work
Although the previous patch can avoid ps and ps UAF for _do_serial, it
can not avoid potential UAF issue for reorder_work. This issue can
happen just as below:
crypto_request crypto_request crypto_del_alg
padata_do_serial
...
padata_reorder
// processes all remaining
// requests then breaks
while (1) {
if (!padata)
break;
...
}
padata_do_serial
// new request added
list_add
// sees the new request
queue_work(reorder_work)
padata_reorder
queue_work_on(squeue->work)
...
<kworker context>
padata_serial_worker
// completes new request,
// no more outstanding
// requests
crypto_del_alg
// free pd
<kworker context>
invoke_padata_reorder
// UAF of pd
To avoid UAF for 'reorder_work', get 'pd' ref before put 'reorder_work'
into the 'serial_wq' and put 'pd' ref until the 'serial_wq' finish.

nilfs2: do not force clear folio if buffer is referenced
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: do not force clear folio if buffer is referenced
Patch series "nilfs2: protect busy buffer heads from being force-cleared".
This series fixes the buffer head state inconsistency issues reported by
syzbot that occurs when the filesystem is corrupted and falls back to
read-only, and the associated buffer head use-after-free issue.
This patch (of 2):
Syzbot has reported that after nilfs2 detects filesystem corruption and
falls back to read-only, inconsistencies in the buffer state may occur.
One of the inconsistencies is that when nilfs2 calls mark_buffer_dirty()
to set a data or metadata buffer as dirty, but it detects that the buffer
is not in the uptodate state:

Both of these issues are caused by the callbacks that handle the
page/folio write requests, forcibly clear various states, including the
working state of the buffers they hold, at unexpected times when they
detect read-only fallback.
Fix these issues by checking if the buffer is referenced before clearing
the page/folio state, and skipping the clear if it is.

RDMA/mlx5: Fix implicit ODP use after free
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/mlx5: Fix implicit ODP use after free
Prevent double queueing of implicit ODP mr destroy work by using
__xa_cmpxchg() to make sure this is the only time we are destroying this
specific mr.
Without this change, we could try to invalidate this mr twice, which in
turn could result in queuing a MR work destroy twice, and eventually the
second work could execute after the MR was freed due to the first work,
causing a user after free and trace below.

kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:62!
Kernel panic - not syncing: Oops - BUG: Fatal exception
This happens because pps_device_destruct() frees the pps_device with the
embedded cdev immediately after calling cdev_del(), but, as the comment
above cdev_del() notes, fops for previously opened cdevs are still
callable even after cdev_del() returns. I think this bug has always
been there: I can't explain why it suddenly started happening every time
I reboot this particular board.
In commit d953e0e837e6 ("pps: Fix a use-after free bug when
unregistering a source."), George Spelvin suggested removing the
embedded cdev. That seems like the simplest way to fix this, so I've
implemented his suggestion, using __register_chrdev() with pps_idr
becoming the source of truth for which minor corresponds to which
device.
But now that pps_idr defines userspace visibility instead of cdev_add(),
we need to be sure the pps->dev refcount can't reach zero while
userspace can still find it again. So, the idr_remove() call moves to
pps_unregister_cdev(), and pps_idr now holds a reference to pps->dev.
pps_core: source serial1 got cdev (251:1)

netfilter: nf_tables: avoid skb access on nf_stolen
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: avoid skb access on nf_stolen
When verdict is NF_STOLEN, the skb might have been freed.
When tracing is enabled, this can result in a use-after-free:
1. access to skb->nf_trace
2. access to skb->mark
3. computation of trace id
4. dump of packet payload
To avoid 1, keep a cached copy of skb->nf_trace in the
trace state struct.
Refresh this copy whenever verdict is != STOLEN.
Avoid 2 by skipping skb->mark access if verdict is STOLEN.
3 is avoided by precomputing the trace id.
Only dump the packet when verdict is not "STOLEN".

Grub2: command/gpg: use-after-free due to hooks not being removed on module unload
A flaw was found in command/gpg. In some scenarios, hooks created by loaded modules are not removed when the related module is unloaded. This flaw allows an attacker to force grub2 to call the hooks once the module that registered it was unloaded, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. If correctly exploited, this vulnerability may result in arbitrary code execution, eventually allowing the attacker to bypass secure boot protections.

netem: Update sch->q.qlen before qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netem: Update sch->q.qlen before qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog()
qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog() notifies parent qdisc only if child
qdisc becomes empty, therefore we need to reduce the backlog of the
child qdisc before calling it. Otherwise it would miss the opportunity
to call cops->qlen_notify(), in the case of DRR, it resulted in UAF
since DRR uses ->qlen_notify() to maintain its active list.

net: sched: Disallow replacing of child qdisc from one parent to another
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: sched: Disallow replacing of child qdisc from one parent to another
Lion Ackermann was able to create a UAF which can be abused for privilege
escalation with the following script
Step 1. create root qdisc
tc qdisc add dev lo root handle 1:0 drr
step2. a class for packet aggregation do demonstrate uaf
tc class add dev lo classid 1:1 drr
step3. a class for nesting
tc class add dev lo classid 1:2 drr
step4. a class to graft qdisc to
tc class add dev lo classid 1:3 drr
step5.
tc qdisc add dev lo parent 1:1 handle 2:0 plug limit 1024
step6.
tc qdisc add dev lo parent 1:2 handle 3:0 drr
step7.
tc class add dev lo classid 3:1 drr
step 8.
tc qdisc add dev lo parent 3:1 handle 4:0 pfifo
step 9. Display the class/qdisc layout
tc class ls dev lo
class drr 1:1 root leaf 2: quantum 64Kb
class drr 1:2 root leaf 3: quantum 64Kb
class drr 3:1 root leaf 4: quantum 64Kb
tc qdisc ls
qdisc drr 1: dev lo root refcnt 2
qdisc plug 2: dev lo parent 1:1
qdisc pfifo 4: dev lo parent 3:1 limit 1000p
qdisc drr 3: dev lo parent 1:2
step10. trigger the bug <=== prevented by this patch
tc qdisc replace dev lo parent 1:3 handle 4:0
step 11. Redisplay again the qdiscs/classes
tc class ls dev lo
class drr 1:1 root leaf 2: quantum 64Kb
class drr 1:2 root leaf 3: quantum 64Kb
class drr 1:3 root leaf 4: quantum 64Kb
class drr 3:1 root leaf 4: quantum 64Kb
tc qdisc ls
qdisc drr 1: dev lo root refcnt 2
qdisc plug 2: dev lo parent 1:1
qdisc pfifo 4: dev lo parent 3:1 refcnt 2 limit 1000p
qdisc drr 3: dev lo parent 1:2
Observe that a) parent for 4:0 does not change despite the replace request.
There can only be one parent. b) refcount has gone up by two for 4:0 and
c) both class 1:3 and 3:1 are pointing to it.
Step 12. send one packet to plug
echo "" | socat -u STDIN UDP4-DATAGRAM:127.0.0.1:8888,priority=$((0x10001))
step13. send one packet to the grafted fifo
echo "" | socat -u STDIN UDP4-DATAGRAM:127.0.0.1:8888,priority=$((0x10003))
step14. lets trigger the uaf
tc class delete dev lo classid 1:3
tc class delete dev lo classid 1:1
The semantics of "replace" is for a del/add _on the same node_ and not
a delete from one node(3:1) and add to another node (1:3) as in step10.
While we could "fix" with a more complex approach there could be
consequences to expectations so the patch takes the preventive approach of
"disallow such config".

hrtimers: Handle CPU state correctly on hotplug
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hrtimers: Handle CPU state correctly on hotplug
Consider a scenario where a CPU transitions from CPUHP_ONLINE to halfway
through a CPU hotunplug down to CPUHP_HRTIMERS_PREPARE, and then back to
CPUHP_ONLINE:
Since hrtimers_prepare_cpu() does not run, cpu_base.hres_active remains set
to 1 throughout. However, during a CPU unplug operation, the tick and the
clockevents are shut down at CPUHP_AP_TICK_DYING. On return to the online
state, for instance CFS incorrectly assumes that the hrtick is already
active, and the chance of the clockevent device to transition to oneshot
mode is also lost forever for the CPU, unless it goes back to a lower state
than CPUHP_HRTIMERS_PREPARE once.
This round-trip reveals another issue; cpu_base.online is not set to 1
after the transition, which appears as a WARN_ON_ONCE in enqueue_hrtimer().
Aside of that, the bulk of the per CPU state is not reset either, which
means there are dangling pointers in the worst case.
Address this by adding a corresponding startup() callback, which resets the
stale per CPU state and sets the online flag.
[ tglx: Make the new callback unconditionally available, remove the online
modification in the prepare() callback and clear the remaining
state in the starting callback instead of the prepare callback ]

io_uring/eventfd: ensure io_eventfd_signal() defers another RCU period
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/eventfd: ensure io_eventfd_signal() defers another RCU period
io_eventfd_do_signal() is invoked from an RCU callback, but when
dropping the reference to the io_ev_fd, it calls io_eventfd_free()
directly if the refcount drops to zero. This isn't correct, as any
potential freeing of the io_ev_fd should be deferred another RCU grace
period.
Just call io_eventfd_put() rather than open-code the dec-and-test and
free, which will correctly defer it another RCU grace period.

block: RCU protect disk->conv_zones_bitmap
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: RCU protect disk->conv_zones_bitmap
Ensure that a disk revalidation changing the conventional zones bitmap
of a disk does not cause invalid memory references when using the
disk_zone_is_conv() helper by RCU protecting the disk->conv_zones_bitmap
pointer.
disk_zone_is_conv() is modified to operate under the RCU read lock and
the function disk_set_conv_zones_bitmap() is added to update a disk
conv_zones_bitmap pointer using rcu_replace_pointer() with the disk
zone_wplugs_lock spinlock held.
disk_free_zone_resources() is modified to call
disk_update_zone_resources() with a NULL bitmap pointer to free the disk
conv_zones_bitmap. disk_set_conv_zones_bitmap() is also used in
disk_update_zone_resources() to set the new (revalidated) bitmap and
free the old one.

s390/cpum_sf: Handle CPU hotplug remove during sampling
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/cpum_sf: Handle CPU hotplug remove during sampling
CPU hotplug remove handling triggers the following function
call sequence:
CPUHP_AP_PERF_S390_SF_ONLINE --> s390_pmu_sf_offline_cpu()
...
CPUHP_AP_PERF_ONLINE --> perf_event_exit_cpu()
The s390 CPUMF sampling CPU hotplug handler invokes:
s390_pmu_sf_offline_cpu()
+--> cpusf_pmu_setup()
+--> setup_pmc_cpu()
+--> deallocate_buffers()
This function de-allocates all sampling data buffers (SDBs) allocated
for that CPU at event initialization. It also clears the
PMU_F_RESERVED bit. The CPU is gone and can not be sampled.
With the event still being active on the removed CPU, the CPU event
hotplug support in kernel performance subsystem triggers the
following function calls on the removed CPU:
perf_event_exit_cpu()
+--> perf_event_exit_cpu_context()
+--> __perf_event_exit_context()
+--> __perf_remove_from_context()
+--> event_sched_out()
+--> cpumsf_pmu_del()
+--> cpumsf_pmu_stop()
+--> hw_perf_event_update()
to stop and remove the event. During removal of the event, the
sampling device driver tries to read out the remaining samples from
the sample data buffers (SDBs). But they have already been freed
(and may have been re-assigned). This may lead to a use after free
situation in which case the samples are most likely invalid. In the
best case the memory has not been reassigned and still contains
valid data.
Remedy this situation and check if the CPU is still in reserved
state (bit PMU_F_RESERVED set). In this case the SDBs have not been
released an contain valid data. This is always the case when
the event is removed (and no CPU hotplug off occured).
If the PMU_F_RESERVED bit is not set, the SDB buffers are gone.

blk-cgroup: Fix UAF in blkcg_unpin_online()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
blk-cgroup: Fix UAF in blkcg_unpin_online()
blkcg_unpin_online() walks up the blkcg hierarchy putting the online pin. To
walk up, it uses blkcg_parent(blkcg) but it was calling that after
blkcg_destroy_blkgs(blkcg) which could free the blkcg, leading to the
following UAF:

Note that the UAF is not easy to trigger as the free path is indirected

Fix it by reading the parent pointer before destroying the blkcg's blkg's.

scsi: sg: Fix slab-use-after-free read in sg_release()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: sg: Fix slab-use-after-free read in sg_release()
Fix a use-after-free bug in sg_release(), detected by syzbot with KASAN:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in lock_release+0x151/0xa30
kernel/locking/lockdep.c:5838
__mutex_unlock_slowpath+0xe2/0x750 kernel/locking/mutex.c:912
sg_release+0x1f4/0x2e0 drivers/scsi/sg.c:407
In sg_release(), the function kref_put(&sfp->f_ref, sg_remove_sfp) is
called before releasing the open_rel_lock mutex. The kref_put() call may
decrement the reference count of sfp to zero, triggering its cleanup
through sg_remove_sfp(). This cleanup includes scheduling deferred work
via sg_remove_sfp_usercontext(), which ultimately frees sfp.
After kref_put(), sg_release() continues to unlock open_rel_lock and may
reference sfp or sdp. If sfp has already been freed, this results in a
slab-use-after-free error.
Move the kref_put(&sfp->f_ref, sg_remove_sfp) call after unlocking the
open_rel_lock mutex. This ensures:
- No references to sfp or sdp occur after the reference count is
decremented.
- Cleanup functions such as sg_remove_sfp() and
sg_remove_sfp_usercontext() can safely execute without impacting the
mutex handling in sg_release().
The fix has been tested and validated by syzbot. This patch closes the
bug reported at the following syzkaller link and ensures proper
sequencing of resource cleanup and mutex operations, eliminating the
risk of use-after-free errors in sg_release().

nfsd: release svc_expkey/svc_export with rcu_work
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: release svc_expkey/svc_export with rcu_work
The last reference for `cache_head` can be reduced to zero in `c_show`
and `e_show`(using `rcu_read_lock` and `rcu_read_unlock`). Consequently,
`svc_export_put` and `expkey_put` will be invoked, leading to two
issues:
1. The `svc_export_put` will directly free ex_uuid. However,
`e_show`/`c_show` will access `ex_uuid` after `cache_put`, which can
trigger a use-after-free issue, shown below.

Fix these issues by using `rcu_work` to help release
`svc_expkey`/`svc_export`. This approach allows for an asynchronous
context to invoke `path_put` and also facilitates the freeing of
`uuid/exp/key` after an RCU grace period.
