In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/lib: Revert to _ASM_EXTABLE_UA() for {get,put}_user() fixups
During memory error injection test on kernels >= v6.4, the kernel panics
like below. However, this issue couldn't be reproduced on kernels <= v6.3.
mce: [Hardware Error]: CPU 296: Machine Check Exception: f Bank 1: bd80000000100134
mce: [Hardware Error]: RIP 10:<ffffffff821b9776> {__get_user_nocheck_4+0x6/0x20}

mce: [Hardware Error]: Run the above through 'mcelog --ascii'
mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check: Data load in unrecoverable area of kernel
Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal local machine check
The MCA code can recover from an in-kernel #MC if the fixup type is
EX_TYPE_UACCESS, explicitly indicating that the kernel is attempting to
access userspace memory. However, if the fixup type is EX_TYPE_DEFAULT
the only thing that is raised for an in-kernel #MC is a panic.
ex_handler_uaccess() would warn if users gave a non-canonical addresses
(with bit 63 clear) to {get, put}_user(), which was unexpected.
Therefore, commit
b19b74bc99b1 ("x86/mm: Rework address range check in get_user() and put_user()")
replaced _ASM_EXTABLE_UA() with _ASM_EXTABLE() for {get, put}_user()
fixups. However, the new fixup type EX_TYPE_DEFAULT results in a panic.
Commit
6014bc27561f ("x86-64: make access_ok() independent of LAM")
added the check gp_fault_address_ok() right before the WARN_ONCE() in
ex_handler_uaccess() to not warn about non-canonical user addresses due
to LAM.
With that in place, revert back to _ASM_EXTABLE_UA() for {get,put}_user()
exception fixups in order to be able to handle in-kernel MCEs correctly
again.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ppp_async: limit MRU to 64K
syzbot triggered a warning [1] in __alloc_pages():
WARN_ON_ONCE_GFP(order > MAX_PAGE_ORDER, gfp)
Willem fixed a similar issue in commit c0a2a1b0d631 ("ppp: limit MRU to 64K")
Adopt the same sanity check for ppp_async_ioctl(PPPIOCSMRU)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
af_unix: Call kfree_skb() for dead unix_(sk)->oob_skb in GC.
syzbot reported a warning [0] in __unix_gc() with a repro, which
creates a socketpair and sends one socket's fd to itself using the
peer.
socketpair(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0, [3, 4]) = 0
sendmsg(4, {msg_name=NULL, msg_namelen=0, msg_iov=[{iov_base="\360", iov_len=1}],
msg_iovlen=1, msg_control=[{cmsg_len=20, cmsg_level=SOL_SOCKET,
cmsg_type=SCM_RIGHTS, cmsg_data=[3]}],
msg_controllen=24, msg_flags=0}, MSG_OOB|MSG_PROBE|MSG_DONTWAIT|MSG_ZEROCOPY) = 1
This forms a self-cyclic reference that GC should finally untangle
but does not due to lack of MSG_OOB handling, resulting in memory
leak.
Recently, commit 11498715f266 ("af_unix: Remove io_uring code for
GC.") removed io_uring's dead code in GC and revealed the problem.
The code was executed at the final stage of GC and unconditionally
moved all GC candidates from gc_candidates to gc_inflight_list.
That papered over the reported problem by always making the following
WARN_ON_ONCE(!list_empty(&gc_candidates)) false.
The problem has been there since commit 2aab4b969002 ("af_unix: fix
struct pid leaks in OOB support") added full scm support for MSG_OOB
while fixing another bug.
To fix this problem, we must call kfree_skb() for unix_sk(sk)->oob_skb
if the socket still exists in gc_candidates after purging collected skb.
Then, we need to set NULL to oob_skb before calling kfree_skb() because
it calls last fput() and triggers unix_release_sock(), where we call
duplicate kfree_skb(u->oob_skb) if not NULL.
Note that the leaked socket remained being linked to a global list, so
kmemleak also could not detect it. We need to check /proc/net/protocol
to notice the unfreed socket.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rxrpc: Fix delayed ACKs to not set the reference serial number
Fix the construction of delayed ACKs to not set the reference serial number
as they can't be used as an RTT reference.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/efistub: Use 1:1 file:memory mapping for PE/COFF .compat section
The .compat section is a dummy PE section that contains the address of
the 32-bit entrypoint of the 64-bit kernel image if it is bootable from
32-bit firmware (i.e., CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=y)
This section is only 8 bytes in size and is only referenced from the
loader, and so it is placed at the end of the memory view of the image,
to avoid the need for padding it to 4k, which is required for sections
appearing in the middle of the image.
Unfortunately, this violates the PE/COFF spec, and even if most EFI
loaders will work correctly (including the Tianocore reference
implementation), PE loaders do exist that reject such images, on the
basis that both the file and memory views of the file contents should be
described by the section headers in a monotonically increasing manner
without leaving any gaps.
So reorganize the sections to avoid this issue. This results in a slight
padding overhead (< 4k) which can be avoided if desired by disabling
CONFIG_EFI_MIXED (which is only needed in rare cases these days)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
inet: read sk->sk_family once in inet_recv_error()
inet_recv_error() is called without holding the socket lock.
IPv6 socket could mutate to IPv4 with IPV6_ADDRFORM
socket option and trigger a KCSAN warning.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: atlantic: Fix DMA mapping for PTP hwts ring
Function aq_ring_hwts_rx_alloc() maps extra AQ_CFG_RXDS_DEF bytes
for PTP HWTS ring but then generic aq_ring_free() does not take this
into account.
Create and use a specific function to free HWTS ring to fix this
issue.
