Vulnerabilidades de Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: nf_tables: move hardware offload step after building the chain blob Allocate the chain blob before the ruleset offload to reduce chances of entering an inconsistent state where the offloaded ruleset in the nic and the software ruleset differ.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: stmmac: restore NET_IP_ALIGN in the RX DMA offset Since the RX path was converted to zero-copy, the page pool page is handed to the stack directly as the skb head, and the offset the DMA engine writes at is what determines the alignment of the packet headers. Before the conversion the payload was copied into an skb obtained from napi_alloc_skb(), which reserves NET_SKB_PAD + NET_IP_ALIGN. The conversion moved the headroom into stmmac_rx_offset() but did not carry over NET_IP_ALIGN, so on architectures where NET_IP_ALIGN is 2 the IP header now lands misaligned: 64 (NET_SKB_PAD) + 14 (ethernet) + 20 (IP) = 98 Same for the XDP branch: 256 (XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM) + 14 (ethernet) + 20 (IP) = 290 On ARM32 this is fatal, because ldm and ldrd trap on unaligned addresses even when CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS is set. Any received echo request panics the machine, e.g: Unhandled fault: alignment exception (0x001) at 0x81873062 Internal error: : 1 [#1] SMP ARM Hardware name: Altera SOCFPGA Arria10 PC is at icmp_echo+0x38/0xa8 LR is at icmp_rcv+0x22c/0x370 Call trace: icmp_echo from icmp_rcv+0x22c/0x370 icmp_rcv from ip_protocol_deliver_rcu+0x2c/0x224 ip_protocol_deliver_rcu from ip_local_deliver+0xc8/0x1a0 ip_local_deliver from ip_sublist_rcv_finish+0x3c/0x50 ip_sublist_rcv_finish from ip_list_rcv_finish+0x110/0x118 ip_list_rcv_finish from ip_list_rcv+0xc8/0xdc ip_list_rcv from __netif_receive_skb_list_core+0x170/0x1c0 ... napi_complete_done from stmmac_napi_poll_rx+0xcb0/0x1030 Code: e24dd068 e59020a0 e28dc010 e0822001 (e8920003) Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt The faulting instruction is the ldm of *icmp_hdr(skb) in icmp_echo(). Fix by adding NET_IP_ALIGN back to the RX offset, which restores the alignment the stack used to get. Note that commit a955318fe67e ("stmmac: align RX buffers") made a similar change in 2021 and was reverted by commit 12d125b4574b ("stmmac: Revert "stmmac: align RX buffers"") because it caused packet corruption. That patch raised the offset from 0 without adjusting the buffer size accounting, so the DMA engine could arguably write past the end of the RX buffers, though this was never root caused. Commit df542f669307 ("net: stmmac: Switch to zero-copy in non-XDP RX path") since derives the page pool allocation from stmmac_rx_offset(), so the extra bytes are accounted for.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: slip: remove slip_hangup() to fix use-after-free in slip_receive_buf() Jaeyoung Chung and Eulgyu Kim reported a slab-use-after-free read in slip_receive_buf() when racing against tty hangup. tty_ldisc_hangup() calls ld->ops->hangup() while holding only a read lock on tty->ldisc_sem (via tty_ldisc_ref()). Because slip_hangup() simply called slip_close(), it ran concurrently with reader functions such as slip_receive_buf(). slip_close() unregisters and frees the net device and its private struct slip, causing concurrent reader threads in slip_receive_buf() to dereference freed memory. Line discipline close() is already guaranteed to be called under the write lock of tty->ldisc_sem during hangup processing (in tty_ldisc_reinit() or tty_ldisc_kill()). Remove slip_hangup() so teardown is serialized cleanly by slip_close().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tcp: reject non zerocopy devmem tx Devmem tcp tx doesn't work without zero-copy, however it's not currently enforced if NETIF_F_SG isn't present. In this case, tcp_sendmsg_locked() will try the copy path and try to copy data from an iovec which consists of offsets into the dma-buf and would normally fail. Moreover, d9c56501c72fd ("net: tcp: block mixing readable and unreadable frags") relies on that and assumes that the devmem binding is present IFF we're using the zero-copy path, which can be used to mix net-iov and pages in a single skb, and break invariants. Let's reject devmem tx without zero-copy. Note, the parameter check the patch is modifying is too loose, we can create an io_uring request with dmabuf_id and all ZC flags, but which won't have the binding. We replace it with stricter validation.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/xe: Don't hand out the flat CCS storage as usable VRAM get_flat_ccs_offset() reads the base of the flat CCS storage from the hardware, scales it by the number of enabled L3 nodes, and rounds the result up to 128K. Everything below that offset is then handed to the VRAM allocator as usable memory. Rounding a limit that means "usable memory ends here" upwards publishes whatever lies between the real base and the rounded one as free memory, and that memory belongs to the compression hardware. The scaled value has no reason to be 128K aligned, and on a Battlemage G21 with 16 GiB it is not: flat CCS base: raw 0x3fafff800, rounded 0x3fb000000 so the last 2 KiB of page 0x3fafff000 is CCS storage, in the allocator's pool. Whatever is allocated there gets that tail overwritten by the compression hardware, which needs no page-table entry, no buffer object and no GPU submission to do it, and does it before userspace exists. On this machine a Mesa VM's level-3 page table landed on that page on every cold boot. It lost the entry covering the compositor's batch-buffer heap, so the compositor's first submission faulted fetching its batch and gdm restarted it forever: a black screen on an otherwise working machine. Restarting gdm cleared it because the next VM's page tables were allocated somewhere else. Round down instead, to the page size the allocator works in. On this machine that excludes exactly one page. Reading the reserved page afterwards shows what had been writing it: [369] 0xcccc000000000000 [371] 0xcc77000000000000 [373] 0xcccc000000000000 [375] 0xcc77000000000000 compression metadata, two bytes per sixteen, sitting where the driver used to hand out memory. The assertion that should have caught this compares the offset against GSMBASE - ccs_size for equality. That value is 128K aligned, so it agrees with the rounded-up offset precisely when the base is not aligned - the check cannot fail in the case it exists to catch, and is compiled out unless CONFIG_DRM_XE_DEBUG is set. Replace it with one that can fail: CCS storage must not run into GSM. [ And this was a debug session from hell, enormously helped by an AI doing much of the grunt-work. I'd like to call it my tireless helper, but the AI several times stated flat out that this was impossible and unsolvable and that we should just write a report about it. I suspect those things have been trained by people who may not be quite as stubborn as I am. But while the AI was ready to give up several times, it did keep adding debug code and analyzing it faithfully when I pushed. So credit where credit is due and I let the AI write the commit message above. This is basically a one-liner fixing a bogus "round_up()" to a "round_down()", but there were 24 patches adding more and more debug information to this, and 18 kernel boot to finally narrow it down to this. - Linus ]

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/page_alloc: don't spin_trylock() in NMI on UP Patch series "mm/page_alloc: fixes for free_pages_nolock() on RT/UP". Pre-existing bugs found by Sashiko during review of this other series: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260703-alloc-trylock-v5-0-c87b714e19d3@google.com/ I have not reproduced these bugs, and I suspect there is no real-world user that is affected by them. This patch (of 2): As noted in can_spin_trylock(), using this is unsafe in this context. commit 620b46ed6ae17 ("mm/page_alloc: return NULL early from alloc_frozen_pages_nolock() in NMI on UP") fixed this on the alloc side but missed the free side. Impact: If BPF programs using these features in NMI (probably tracing) are present on non-SMP builds this might crash the kernel and is probably exploitable by local attackers for privilege escalation.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: USB: gadget: ffs: fix mm lifetime handling io_data stores a pointer to the submitting task's mm_struct, but does not currently hold a reference to it while async requests are pending. This can result in a use-after-free if the task exits before completion handling finishes. Take a reference with mmgrab() when queuing the read request and release it with mmdrop() on request completion.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: f_fs: Fix Use-After-Free in AIO error path In ffs_epfile_write_iter() and ffs_epfile_read_iter(), when ffs_epfile_io() fails with an error other than -EIOCBQUEUED, the io_data structure (`p`) is freed. However, for AIO operations, the kiocb cancel function was already armed and kiocb->private was set to `p`. If a concurrent cancel operation (such as sys_io_cancel()) executes after ffs_epfile_io() fails but before the function frees `p`, a Use-After-Free can occur when the cancellation handler accesses the freed pointer. To securely fix this race condition, we must properly un-arm the cancellation. Invoking `kiocb->ki_complete()` does exactly this by acquiring `ctx->ctx_lock` and safely removing the kiocb from the active sequence. In doing so, it ensures that a parallel io_cancel can no longer discover the kiocb, effectively closing the race window. We then return -EIOCBQUEUED to notify the VFS layer that the kiocb has been consumed and it should avoid attempting to complete the request again or triggering subsequent completion handlers.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: zram: fix slot lock bit position on big-endian 64-bit The slot lock is a bit operation on the whole __lock word, which flags and ac_time alias as two u32s. On little-endian the lock bit lands in the position ZRAM_ENTRY_LOCK reserves in flags, so the aliasing works out. On 64-bit big-endian it lands in ac_time instead: with ZRAM_TRACK_ENTRY_ACTIME enabled, storing the access time from mark_slot_accessed() or slot_free() wipes out the held lock bit, letting another CPU take the same slot lock; an access time value with that bit set makes the slot look locked forever. Shift the lock bit into the flags half of the word on big-endian 64-bit.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: sony: clean up device list on probe failure sony_input_configured() adds some controllers to sony_device_list before HID core registers their input devices. input_register_device() can fail after the callback returns successfully. sony_probe() then observes that HID_CLAIMED_INPUT is clear and unwinds, but only stops the HID hardware. The devres-managed sony_sc is freed while its list node remains linked, so the next matching controller traverses freed memory. Initialize the list node and device ID to inactive states. Make list removal idempotent and run the driver-private cleanup on every probe failure path. This also makes a second cleanup safe when sony_input_configured() already unwound a partial initialization before sony_probe() handles the missing input claim. Found by 0sec (https://0sec.ai) using automated source analysis; verified against the HID input registration and probe unwind paths.
