| Redis is an open source, in-memory database that persists on disk. In versions starting at 2.6 and prior to 7.4.3, An unauthenticated client can cause unlimited growth of output buffers, until the server runs out of memory or is killed. By default, the Redis configuration does not limit the output buffer of normal clients (see client-output-buffer-limit). Therefore, the output buffer can grow unlimitedly over time. As a result, the service is exhausted and the memory is unavailable. When password authentication is enabled on the Redis server, but no password is provided, the client can still cause the output buffer to grow from "NOAUTH" responses until the system will run out of memory. This issue has been patched in version 7.4.3. An additional workaround to mitigate this problem without patching the redis-server executable is to block access to prevent unauthenticated users from connecting to Redis. This can be done in different ways. Either using network access control tools like firewalls, iptables, security groups, etc, or enabling TLS and requiring users to authenticate using client side certificates. |

Bluetooth: Fix use-after-free in l2cap_sock_cleanup_listen()
syzbot reported the splat below without a repro.
In the splat, a single thread calling bt_accept_dequeue() freed sk
and touched it after that.
The root cause would be the racy l2cap_sock_cleanup_listen() call
added by the cited commit.
bt_accept_dequeue() is called under lock_sock() except for
l2cap_sock_release().
Two threads could see the same socket during the list iteration
in bt_accept_dequeue():
CPU1 CPU2 (close())

dmaengine: ti: edma: Fix memory allocation size for queue_priority_map
Fix a critical memory allocation bug in edma_setup_from_hw() where
queue_priority_map was allocated with insufficient memory. The code
declared queue_priority_map as s8 (*)[2] (pointer to array of 2 s8),
but allocated memory using sizeof(s8) instead of the correct size.
This caused out-of-bounds memory writes when accessing:
queue_priority_map[i][0] = i;
queue_priority_map[i][1] = i;
The bug manifested as kernel crashes with "Oops - undefined instruction"
on ARM platforms (BeagleBoard-X15) during EDMA driver probe, as the
memory corruption triggered kernel hardening features on Clang.
Change the allocation to use sizeof(*queue_priority_map) which
automatically gets the correct size for the 2D array structure. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: idxd: Fix double free in idxd_setup_wqs()
The clean up in idxd_setup_wqs() has had a couple bugs because the error
handling is a bit subtle. It's simpler to just re-write it in a cleaner
way. The issues here are:
1) If "idxd->max_wqs" is <= 0 then we call put_device(conf_dev) when
"conf_dev" hasn't been initialized.
2) If kzalloc_node() fails then again "conf_dev" is invalid. It's
either uninitialized or it points to the "conf_dev" from the
previous iteration so it leads to a double free.
It's better to free partial loop iterations within the loop and then
the unwinding at the end can handle whole loop iterations. I also
renamed the labels to describe what the goto does and not where the goto
was located. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: xilinx_can: xcan_write_frame(): fix use-after-free of transmitted SKB
can_put_echo_skb() takes ownership of the SKB and it may be freed
during or after the call.
However, xilinx_can xcan_write_frame() keeps using SKB after the call.
Fix that by only calling can_put_echo_skb() after the code is done
touching the SKB.
The tx_lock is held for the entire xcan_write_frame() execution and
also on the can_get_echo_skb() side so the order of operations does not
matter.
An earlier fix commit 3d3c817c3a40 ("can: xilinx_can: Fix usage of skb
memory") did not move the can_put_echo_skb() call far enough.

mm/damon/sysfs: fix use-after-free in state_show()
state_show() reads kdamond->damon_ctx without holding damon_sysfs_lock.
This allows a use-after-free race:
CPU 0 CPU 1
----- -----
state_show() damon_sysfs_turn_damon_on()
ctx = kdamond->damon_ctx; mutex_lock(&damon_sysfs_lock);
damon_destroy_ctx(kdamond->damon_ctx);
kdamond->damon_ctx = NULL;
mutex_unlock(&damon_sysfs_lock);
damon_is_running(ctx); /* ctx is freed */
mutex_lock(&ctx->kdamond_lock); /* UAF */
(The race can also occur with damon_sysfs_kdamonds_rm_dirs() and
damon_sysfs_kdamond_release(), which free or replace the context under
damon_sysfs_lock.)
Fix by taking damon_sysfs_lock before dereferencing the context, mirroring
the locking used in pid_show().
The bug has existed since state_show() first accessed kdamond->damon_ctx. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libceph: fix invalid accesses to ceph_connection_v1_info
There is a place where generic code in messenger.c is reading and
another place where it is writing to con->v1 union member without
checking that the union member is active (i.e. msgr1 is in use).
On 64-bit systems, con->v1.auth_retry overlaps with con->v2.out_iter,
so such a read is almost guaranteed to return a bogus value instead of
0 when msgr2 is in use. This ends up being fairly benign because the
side effect is just the invalidation of the authorizer and successive
fetching of new tickets.
con->v1.connect_seq overlaps with con->v2.conn_bufs and the fact that
it's being written to can cause more serious consequences, but luckily
it's not something that happens often. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: qcom: bam_dma: Fix DT error handling for num-channels/ees
When we don't have a clock specified in the device tree, we have no way to
ensure the BAM is on. This is often the case for remotely-controlled or
remotely-powered BAM instances. In this case, we need to read num-channels
from the DT to have all the necessary information to complete probing.
However, at the moment invalid device trees without clock and without
num-channels still continue probing, because the error handling is missing
return statements. The driver will then later try to read the number of
channels from the registers. This is unsafe, because it relies on boot
firmware and lucky timing to succeed. Unfortunately, the lack of proper
error handling here has been abused for several Qualcomm SoCs upstream,
causing early boot crashes in several situations [1, 2].
Avoid these early crashes by erroring out when any of the required DT
properties are missing. Note that this will break some of the existing DTs
upstream (mainly BAM instances related to the crypto engine). However,
clearly these DTs have never been tested properly, since the error in the
kernel log was just ignored. It's safer to disable the crypto engine for
these broken DTBs.

batman-adv: fix OOB read/write in network-coding decode
batadv_nc_skb_decode_packet() trusts coded_len and checks only against
skb->len. XOR starts at sizeof(struct batadv_unicast_packet), reducing
payload headroom, and the source skb length is not verified, allowing an
out-of-bounds read and a small out-of-bounds write.
Validate that coded_len fits within the payload area of both destination
and source sk_buffs before XORing. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: lpfc: Fix buffer free/clear order in deferred receive path
Fix a use-after-free window by correcting the buffer release sequence in
the deferred receive path. The code freed the RQ buffer first and only
then cleared the context pointer under the lock. Concurrent paths (e.g.,
ABTS and the repost path) also inspect and release the same pointer under
the lock, so the old order could lead to double-free/UAF.
Note that the repost path already uses the correct pattern: detach the
pointer under the lock, then free it after dropping the lock. The
deferred path should do the same. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: prevent release journal inode after journal shutdown
Before calling ocfs2_delete_osb(), ocfs2_journal_shutdown() has already
been executed in ocfs2_dismount_volume(), so osb->journal must be NULL.
Therefore, the following calltrace will inevitably fail when it reaches
jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inode().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm: slub: avoid wake up kswapd in set_track_prepare
set_track_prepare() can incur lock recursion.
The issue is that it is called from hrtimer_start_range_ns
holding the per_cpu(hrtimer_bases)[n].lock, but when enabled
CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_TIMERS, may wake up kswapd in set_track_prepare,
and try to hold the per_cpu(hrtimer_bases)[n].lock.
Avoid deadlock caused by implicitly waking up kswapd by passing in
allocation flags, which do not contain __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM in the
debug_objects_fill_pool() case. Inside stack depot they are processed by
gfp_nested_mask().
Since ___slab_alloc() has preemption disabled, we mask out
__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM from the flags there.
The oops looks something like:

In the normal path, vmemmap_populate() in arch/x86/mm/init_64.c
synchronizes the top level page table (See commit 9b861528a801 ("x86-64,
mem: Update all PGDs for direct mapping and vmemmap mapping changes")) so
that all tasks in the system can see the new vmemmap area.
However, when vmemmap_can_optimize() returns true, the optimized path
skips synchronization of top-level page tables. This is because
vmemmap_populate_compound_pages() is implemented in core MM code, which
does not handle synchronization of the top-level page tables. Instead,
the core MM has historically relied on each architecture to perform this
synchronization manually.
We're not the first party to encounter a crash caused by not-sync'd top
level page tables: earlier this year, Gwan-gyeong Mun attempted to address
the issue [1] [2] after hitting a kernel panic when x86 code accessed the
vmemmap area before the corresponding top-level entries were synced. At
that time, the issue was believed to be triggered only when struct page
was enlarged for debugging purposes, and the patch did not get further
updates.
It turns out that current approach of relying on each arch to handle the
page table sync manually is fragile because 1) it's easy to forget to sync
the top level page table, and 2) it's also easy to overlook that the
kernel should not access the vmemmap and direct mapping areas before the
sync.
# The solution: Make page table sync more code robust and harder to miss
To address this, Dave Hansen suggested [3] [4] introducing
{pgd,p4d}_populate_kernel() for updating kernel portion of the page tables
and allow each architecture to explicitly perform synchronization when
installing top-level entries. With this approach, we no longer need to
worry about missing the sync step, reducing the risk of future
regressions.
The new interface reuses existing ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK,
PGTBL_P*D_MODIFIED and arch_sync_kernel_mappings() facility used by
vmalloc and ioremap to synchronize page tables.
pgd_populate_kernel() looks like this:
static inline void pgd_populate_kernel(unsigned long addr, pgd_t *pgd,
p4d_t *p4d)
{
pgd_populate(&init_mm, pgd, p4d);
if (ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK & PGTBL_PGD_MODIFIED)
arch_sync_kernel_mappings(addr, addr);
}
It is worth noting that vmalloc() and apply_to_range() carefully
synchronizes page tables by calling p*d_alloc_track() and
arch_sync_kernel_mappings(), and thus they are not affected by

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/mm/64: define ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK and arch_sync_kernel_mappings()
Define ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK and arch_sync_kernel_mappings() to ensure
page tables are properly synchronized when calling p*d_populate_kernel().
For 5-level paging, synchronization is performed via
pgd_populate_kernel(). In 4-level paging, pgd_populate() is a no-op, so
synchronization is instead performed at the P4D level via
p4d_populate_kernel().
This fixes intermittent boot failures on systems using 4-level paging and
a large amount of persistent memory:

pcmcia: Fix a NULL pointer dereference in __iodyn_find_io_region()
In __iodyn_find_io_region(), pcmcia_make_resource() is assigned to
res and used in pci_bus_alloc_resource(). There is a dereference of res
in pci_bus_alloc_resource(), which could lead to a NULL pointer
dereference on failure of pcmcia_make_resource().
Fix this bug by adding a check of res. |
