Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
accel/amdxdna: Fix memory leak in amdxdna_ubuf_map
The amdxdna_ubuf_map() function allocates memory for sg and
internal sg table structures, but it fails to free them if subsequent
operations (sg_alloc_table_from_pages or dma_map_sgtable) fail.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clk: mediatek: Drop __initconst from gates
Since commit 8ceff24a754a ("clk: mediatek: clk-gate: Refactor
mtk_clk_register_gate to use mtk_gate struct") the mtk_gate structs
are no longer just used for initialization/registration, but also at
runtime. So drop __initconst annotations.

WARNING: lib/refcount.c:28 at refcount_warn_saturate+0x138/0x1a0, CPU#3: kworker/u17:4/93400
The issue is caused by a race condition between retransmit_timer() and
rxe_destroy_qp, leading to the Queue Pair's (QP) reference count dropping
to zero during timer handler execution.
It seems this warning is harmless because rxe_qp_do_cleanup() will flush
all pending timers and requests.
Example of flow causing the issue:
CPU0 CPU1
retransmit_timer() {
spin_lock_irqsave
rxe_destroy_qp()
__rxe_cleanup()
__rxe_put() // qp->ref_count decrease to 0
rxe_qp_do_cleanup() {
if (qp->valid) {
rxe_sched_task() {
WARN_ON(rxe_read(task->qp) <= 0);
}
}
spin_unlock_irqrestore
}
spin_lock_irqsave
qp->valid = 0
spin_unlock_irqrestore
}
Ensure the QP's reference count is maintained and its validity is checked
within the timer callbacks by adding calls to rxe_get(qp) and corresponding
rxe_put(qp) after use.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: cdns3: fix role switching during resume
If the role change while we are suspended, the cdns3 driver switches to the
new mode during resume. However, switching to host mode in this context
causes a NULL pointer dereference.
The host role's start() operation registers a xhci-hcd device, but its
probe is deferred while we are in the resume path. The host role's resume()
operation assumes the xhci-hcd device is already probed, which is not the
case, leading to the dereference. Since the start() operation of the new
role is already called, the resume operation can be skipped.
So skip the resume operation for the new role if a role switch occurs
during resume. Once the resume sequence is complete, the xhci-hcd device
can be probed in case of host mode.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: don't cache extent during splitting extent
Caching extents during the splitting process is risky, as it may result
in stale extents remaining in the status tree. Moreover, in most cases,
the corresponding extent block entries are likely already cached before
the split happens, making caching here not particularly useful.
Assume we have an unwritten extent, and then DIO writes the first half.
[UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU] on-disk extent U: unwritten extent
[UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU] extent status tree
|<- ->| ----> dio write this range
First, when ext4_split_extent_at() splits this extent, it truncates the
existing extent and then inserts a new one. During this process, this
extent status entry may be shrunk, and calls to ext4_find_extent() and
ext4_cache_extents() may occur, which could potentially insert the
truncated range as a hole into the extent status tree. After the split
is completed, this hole is not replaced with the correct status.
[UUUUUUU|UUUUUUUU] on-disk extent U: unwritten extent
[UUUUUUU|HHHHHHHH] extent status tree H: hole
Then, the outer calling functions will not correct this remaining hole
extent either. Finally, if we perform a delayed buffer write on this
latter part, it will re-insert the delayed extent and cause an error in
space accounting.
In adition, if the unwritten extent cache is not shrunk during the
splitting, ext4_cache_extents() also conflicts with existing extents
when caching extents. In the future, we will add checks when caching
extents, which will trigger a warning. Therefore, Do not cache extents
that are being split.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: caam - fix netdev memory leak in dpaa2_caam_probe
When commit 0e1a4d427f58 ("crypto: caam: Unembed net_dev structure in
dpaa2") converted embedded net_device to dynamically allocated pointers,
it added cleanup in dpaa2_dpseci_disable() but missed adding cleanup in
dpaa2_dpseci_free() for error paths.
This causes memory leaks when dpaa2_dpseci_dpio_setup() fails during probe
due to DPIO devices not being ready yet. The kernel's deferred probe
mechanism handles the retry successfully, but the netdevs allocated during
the failed probe attempt are never freed, resulting in kmemleak reports
showing multiple leaked netdev-related allocations all traced back to
dpaa2_caam_probe().
Fix this by preserving the CPU mask of allocated netdevs during setup and
using it for cleanup in dpaa2_dpseci_free(). This approach ensures that
only the CPUs that actually had netdevs allocated will be cleaned up,
avoiding potential issues with CPU hotplug scenarios.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: revert commit_mutex usage in reset path
It causes circular lock dependency between commit_mutex, nfnl_subsys_ipset
and nlk_cb_mutex when nft reset, ipset list, and iptables-nft with '-m set'
rule run at the same time.
Previous patches made it safe to run individual reset handlers concurrently
so commit_mutex is no longer required to prevent this.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
power: supply: bq256xx: Fix use-after-free in power_supply_changed()
Using the `devm_` variant for requesting IRQ _before_ the `devm_`
variant for allocating/registering the `power_supply` handle, means that
the `power_supply` handle will be deallocated/unregistered _before_ the
interrupt handler (since `devm_` naturally deallocates in reverse
allocation order). This means that during removal, there is a race
condition where an interrupt can fire just _after_ the `power_supply`
handle has been freed, *but* just _before_ the corresponding
unregistration of the IRQ handler has run.
This will lead to the IRQ handler calling `power_supply_changed()` with
a freed `power_supply` handle. Which usually crashes the system or
otherwise silently corrupts the memory...
Note that there is a similar situation which can also happen during
`probe()`; the possibility of an interrupt firing _before_ registering
the `power_supply` handle. This would then lead to the nasty situation
of using the `power_supply` handle *uninitialized* in
`power_supply_changed()`.
Fix this racy use-after-free by making sure the IRQ is requested _after_
the registration of the `power_supply` handle.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix memory access flags in helper prototypes
After commit 37cce22dbd51 ("bpf: verifier: Refactor helper access type tracking"),
the verifier started relying on the access type flags in helper
function prototypes to perform memory access optimizations.
Currently, several helper functions utilizing ARG_PTR_TO_MEM lack the
corresponding MEM_RDONLY or MEM_WRITE flags. This omission causes the
verifier to incorrectly assume that the buffer contents are unchanged
across the helper call. Consequently, the verifier may optimize away
subsequent reads based on this wrong assumption, leading to correctness
issues.
For bpf_get_stack_proto_raw_tp, the original MEM_RDONLY was incorrect
since the helper writes to the buffer. Change it to ARG_PTR_TO_UNINIT_MEM
which correctly indicates write access to potentially uninitialized memory.
Similar issues were recently addressed for specific helpers in commit
ac44dcc788b9 ("bpf: Fix verifier assumptions of bpf_d_path's output buffer")
and commit 2eb7648558a7 ("bpf: Specify access type of bpf_sysctl_get_name args").
Fix these prototypes by adding the correct memory access flags.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/eeh: fix recursive pci_lock_rescan_remove locking in EEH event handling
The recent commit 1010b4c012b0 ("powerpc/eeh: Make EEH driver device
hotplug safe") restructured the EEH driver to improve synchronization
with the PCI hotplug layer.
However, it inadvertently moved pci_lock_rescan_remove() outside its
intended scope in eeh_handle_normal_event(), leading to broken PCI
error reporting and improper EEH event triggering. Specifically,
eeh_handle_normal_event() acquired pci_lock_rescan_remove() before
calling eeh_pe_bus_get(), but eeh_pe_bus_get() itself attempts to
acquire the same lock internally, causing nested locking and disrupting
normal EEH event handling paths.
This patch adds a boolean parameter do_lock to _eeh_pe_bus_get(),
with two public wrappers:
eeh_pe_bus_get() with locking enabled.
eeh_pe_bus_get_nolock() that skips locking.
Callers that already hold pci_lock_rescan_remove() now use
eeh_pe_bus_get_nolock() to avoid recursive lock acquisition.
Additionally, pci_lock_rescan_remove() calls are restored to the correct
position—after eeh_pe_bus_get() and immediately before iterating affected
PEs and devices. This ensures EEH-triggered PCI removes occur under proper
bus rescan locking without recursive lock contention.
The eeh_pe_loc_get() function has been split into two functions:
eeh_pe_loc_get(struct eeh_pe *pe) which retrieves the loc for given PE.
eeh_pe_loc_get_bus(struct pci_bus *bus) which retrieves the location
code for given bus.
This resolves lockdep warnings such as:
