Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In February 2025
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: dsa: lantiq_gswip: Fix refcount leak in gswip_gphy_fw_list
Every iteration of for_each_available_child_of_node() decrements
the reference count of the previous node.
when breaking early from a for_each_available_child_of_node() loop,
we need to explicitly call of_node_put() on the gphy_fw_np.
Add missing of_node_put() to avoid refcount leak.

convert from inline to extent. To solve this issue, we call
filemap_flush first..

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: filter out EXT4_FC_REPLAY from on-disk superblock field s_state
The EXT4_FC_REPLAY bit in sbi->s_mount_state is used to indicate that
we are in the middle of replay the fast commit journal. This was
actually a mistake, since the sbi->s_mount_info is initialized from
es->s_state. Arguably s_mount_state is misleadingly named, but the
name is historical --- s_mount_state and s_state dates back to ext2.
What should have been used is the ext4_{set,clear,test}_mount_flag()
inline functions, which sets EXT4_MF_* bits in sbi->s_mount_flags.
The problem with using EXT4_FC_REPLAY is that a maliciously corrupted
superblock could result in EXT4_FC_REPLAY getting set in
s_mount_state. This bypasses some sanity checks, and this can trigger
a BUG() in ext4_es_cache_extent(). As a easy-to-backport-fix, filter
out the EXT4_FC_REPLAY bit for now. We should eventually transition
away from EXT4_FC_REPLAY to something like EXT4_MF_REPLAY.

Reason is first directory entry which 'rec_len' is 34478, then will get illegal
parent entry. Now, we do not check directory entry after read directory block
in 'ext4_get_first_dir_block'.
To solve this issue, check directory entry in 'ext4_get_first_dir_block'.
[ Trigger an ext4_error() instead of just warning if the directory is
missing a '.' or '..' entry. Also make sure we return an error code
if the file system is corrupted. -TYT ]

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mdio: unexport __init-annotated mdio_bus_init()
EXPORT_SYMBOL and __init is a bad combination because the .init.text
section is freed up after the initialization. Hence, modules cannot
use symbols annotated __init. The access to a freed symbol may end up
with kernel panic.
modpost used to detect it, but it has been broken for a decade.
Recently, I fixed modpost so it started to warn it again, then this
showed up in linux-next builds.
There are two ways to fix it:
- Remove __init
- Remove EXPORT_SYMBOL
I chose the latter for this case because the only in-tree call-site,
drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c is never compiled as modular.
(CONFIG_PHYLIB is boolean)

This fixes an issue where mlx5_get_next_phys_dev() was

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/huge_memory: Fix xarray node memory leak
If xas_split_alloc() fails to allocate the necessary nodes to complete the
xarray entry split, it sets the xa_state to -ENOMEM, which xas_nomem()
then interprets as "Please allocate more memory", not as "Please free
any unnecessary memory" (which was the intended outcome). It's confusing
to use xas_nomem() to free memory in this context, so call xas_destroy()
instead.
