Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In February 2025
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/etnaviv: check for reaped mapping in etnaviv_iommu_unmap_gem
When the mapping is already reaped the unmap must be a no-op, as we
would otherwise try to remove the mapping twice, corrupting the involved
data structures.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: dlmfs: fix error handling of user_dlm_destroy_lock
When user_dlm_destroy_lock failed, it didn't clean up the flags it set
before exit. For USER_LOCK_IN_TEARDOWN, if this function fails because of
lock is still in used, next time when unlink invokes this function, it
will return succeed, and then unlink will remove inode and dentry if lock
is not in used(file closed), but the dlm lock is still linked in dlm lock
resource, then when bast come in, it will trigger a panic due to
user-after-free. See the following panic call trace. To fix this,
USER_LOCK_IN_TEARDOWN should be reverted if fail. And also error should
be returned if USER_LOCK_IN_TEARDOWN is set to let user know that unlink
fail.
For the case of ocfs2_dlm_unlock failure, besides USER_LOCK_IN_TEARDOWN,
USER_LOCK_BUSY is also required to be cleared. Even though spin lock is
released in between, but USER_LOCK_IN_TEARDOWN is still set, for
USER_LOCK_BUSY, if before every place that waits on this flag,
USER_LOCK_IN_TEARDOWN is checked to bail out, that will make sure no flow
waits on the busy flag set by user_dlm_destroy_lock(), then we can
simplely revert USER_LOCK_BUSY when ocfs2_dlm_unlock fails. Fix
user_dlm_cluster_lock() which is the only function not following this.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: CT: Fix cleanup of CT before cleanup of TC ct rules
CT cleanup assumes that all tc rules were deleted first, and so
is free to delete the CT shared resources (e.g the dr_action
fwd_action which is shared for all tuples). But currently for
uplink, this is happens in reverse, causing the below trace.
CT cleanup is called from:
mlx5e_cleanup_rep_tx()->mlx5e_cleanup_uplink_rep_tx()->
mlx5e_rep_tc_cleanup()->mlx5e_tc_esw_cleanup()->
mlx5_tc_ct_clean()
Only afterwards, tc cleanup is called from:
mlx5e_cleanup_rep_tx()->mlx5e_tc_ht_cleanup()
which would have deleted all the tc ct rules, and so delete
all the offloaded tuples.
Fix this reversing the order of init and on cleanup, which
will result in tc cleanup then ct cleanup.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ipv6: unexport __init-annotated seg6_hmac_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 caller (net/ipv6/seg6.c)
and the callee (net/ipv6/seg6_hmac.c) belong to the same module.
It seems an internal function call in ipv6.ko.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ip_gre: test csum_start instead of transport header
GRE with TUNNEL_CSUM will apply local checksum offload on
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL packets.
ipgre_xmit must validate csum_start after an optional skb_pull,
else lco_csum may trigger an overflow. The original check was
if (csum && skb_checksum_start(skb) < skb->data)
return -EINVAL;
This had false positives when skb_checksum_start is undefined:
when ip_summed is not CHECKSUM_PARTIAL. A discussed refinement
was straightforward
if (csum && skb->ip_summed == CHECKSUM_PARTIAL &&
skb_checksum_start(skb) < skb->data)
return -EINVAL;
But was eventually revised more thoroughly:
- restrict the check to the only branch where needed, in an
uncommon GRE path that uses header_ops and calls skb_pull.
- test skb_transport_header, which is set along with csum_start
in skb_partial_csum_set in the normal header_ops datapath.
Turns out skbs can arrive in this branch without the transport
header set, e.g., through BPF redirection.
Revise the check back to check csum_start directly, and only if
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL. Do leave the check in the updated location.
Check field regardless of whether TUNNEL_CSUM is configured.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, arm64: Clear prog->jited_len along prog->jited
syzbot reported an illegal copy_to_user() attempt
from bpf_prog_get_info_by_fd() [1]
There was no repro yet on this bug, but I think
that commit 0aef499f3172 ("mm/usercopy: Detect vmalloc overruns")
is exposing a prior bug in bpf arm64.
bpf_prog_get_info_by_fd() looks at prog->jited_len
to determine if the JIT image can be copied out to user space.
My theory is that syzbot managed to get a prog where prog->jited_len
has been set to 43, while prog->bpf_func has ben cleared.
It is not clear why copy_to_user(uinsns, NULL, ulen) is triggering
this particular warning.
I thought find_vma_area(NULL) would not find a vm_struct.
As we do not hold vmap_area_lock spinlock, it might be possible
that the found vm_struct was garbage.

tracing: Fix sleeping function called from invalid context on RT kernel
When setting bootparams="trace_event=initcall:initcall_start tp_printk=1" in the
cmdline, the output_printk() was called, and the spin_lock_irqsave() was called in the
atomic and irq disable interrupt context suitation. On the PREEMPT_RT kernel,
these locks are replaced with sleepable rt-spinlock, so the stack calltrace will
be triggered.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/arm-smmu: fix possible null-ptr-deref in arm_smmu_device_probe()
It will cause null-ptr-deref when using 'res', if platform_get_resource()
returns NULL, so move using 'res' after devm_ioremap_resource() that
will check it to avoid null-ptr-deref.
And use devm_platform_get_and_ioremap_resource() to simplify code.
