Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: fix devlink reload call trace
Commit 4da71a77fc3b ("ice: read internal temperature sensor") introduced
internal temperature sensor reading via HWMON. ice_hwmon_init() was added
to ice_init_feature() and ice_hwmon_exit() was added to ice_remove(). As a
result if devlink reload is used to reinit the device and then the driver
is removed, a call trace can occur.
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffc0fd4b5d
Call Trace:
string+0x48/0xe0
vsnprintf+0x1f9/0x650
sprintf+0x62/0x80
name_show+0x1f/0x30
dev_attr_show+0x19/0x60
The call trace repeats approximately every 10 minutes when system
monitoring tools (e.g., sadc) attempt to read the orphaned hwmon sysfs
attributes that reference freed module memory.
The sequence is:
1. Driver load, ice_hwmon_init() gets called from ice_init_feature()
2. Devlink reload down, flow does not call ice_remove()
3. Devlink reload up, ice_hwmon_init() gets called from
ice_init_feature() resulting in a second instance
4. Driver unload, ice_hwmon_exit() called from ice_remove() leaving the
first hwmon instance orphaned with dangling pointer
Fix this by moving ice_hwmon_exit() from ice_remove() to
ice_deinit_features() to ensure proper cleanup symmetry with
ice_hwmon_init().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: qfq: Use cl_is_active to determine whether class is active in qfq_rm_from_ag
This is more of a preventive patch to make the code more consistent and
to prevent possible exploits that employ child qlen manipulations on qfq.
use cl_is_active instead of relying on the child qdisc's qlen to determine
class activation.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
timekeeping: Adjust the leap state for the correct auxiliary timekeeper
When __do_ajdtimex() was introduced to handle adjtimex for any
timekeeper, this reference to tk_core was not updated. When called on an
auxiliary timekeeper, the core timekeeper would be updated incorrectly.
This gets caught by the lock debugging diagnostics because the
timekeepers sequence lock gets written to without holding its
associated spinlock:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64/fpsimd: signal: Allocate SSVE storage when restoring ZA
The code to restore a ZA context doesn't attempt to allocate the task's
sve_state before setting TIF_SME. Consequently, restoring a ZA context
can place a task into an invalid state where TIF_SME is set but the
task's sve_state is NULL.
In legitimate but uncommon cases where the ZA signal context was NOT
created by the kernel in the context of the same task (e.g. if the task
is saved/restored with something like CRIU), we have no guarantee that
sve_state had been allocated previously. In these cases, userspace can
enter streaming mode without trapping while sve_state is NULL, causing a
later NULL pointer dereference when the kernel attempts to store the
register state:

Fix this by having restore_za_context() ensure that the task's sve_state
is allocated, matching what we do when taking an SME trap. Any live
SVE/SSVE state (which is restored earlier from a separate signal
context) must be preserved, and hence this is not zeroed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: usb_8dev: usb_8dev_read_bulk_callback(): fix URB memory leak
Fix similar memory leak as in commit 7352e1d5932a ("can: gs_usb:
gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback(): fix URB memory leak").
In usb_8dev_open() -> usb_8dev_start(), the URBs for USB-in transfers are
allocated, added to the priv->rx_submitted anchor and submitted. In the
complete callback usb_8dev_read_bulk_callback(), the URBs are processed and
resubmitted. In usb_8dev_close() -> unlink_all_urbs() the URBs are freed by
calling usb_kill_anchored_urbs(&priv->rx_submitted).
However, this does not take into account that the USB framework unanchors
the URB before the complete function is called. This means that once an
in-URB has been completed, it is no longer anchored and is ultimately not
released in usb_kill_anchored_urbs().
Fix the memory leak by anchoring the URB in the
usb_8dev_read_bulk_callback() to the priv->rx_submitted anchor.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/writeback: skip AS_NO_DATA_INTEGRITY mappings in wait_sb_inodes()
Above the while() loop in wait_sb_inodes(), we document that we must wait
for all pages under writeback for data integrity. Consequently, if a
mapping, like fuse, traditionally does not have data integrity semantics,
there is no need to wait at all; we can simply skip these inodes.
This restores fuse back to prior behavior where syncs are no-ops. This
fixes a user regression where if a system is running a faulty fuse server
that does not reply to issued write requests, this causes wait_sb_inodes()
to wait forever.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: core: Wake up the error handler when final completions race against each other
The fragile ordering between marking commands completed or failed so
that the error handler only wakes when the last running command
completes or times out has race conditions. These race conditions can
cause the SCSI layer to fail to wake the error handler, leaving I/O
through the SCSI host stuck as the error state cannot advance.
First, there is an memory ordering issue within scsi_dec_host_busy().
The write which clears SCMD_STATE_INFLIGHT may be reordered with reads
counting in scsi_host_busy(). While the local CPU will see its own
write, reordering can allow other CPUs in scsi_dec_host_busy() or
scsi_eh_inc_host_failed() to see a raised busy count, causing no CPU to
see a host busy equal to the host_failed count.
This race condition can be prevented with a memory barrier on the error
path to force the write to be visible before counting host busy
commands.
Second, there is a general ordering issue with scsi_eh_inc_host_failed(). By
counting busy commands before incrementing host_failed, it can race with a
final command in scsi_dec_host_busy(), such that scsi_dec_host_busy() does
not see host_failed incremented but scsi_eh_inc_host_failed() counts busy
commands before SCMD_STATE_INFLIGHT is cleared by scsi_dec_host_busy(),
resulting in neither waking the error handler task.
This needs the call to scsi_host_busy() to be moved after host_failed is
incremented to close the race condition.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: dac: ad3552r-hs: fix out-of-bound write in ad3552r_hs_write_data_source
When simple_write_to_buffer() succeeds, it returns the number of bytes
actually copied to the buffer. The code incorrectly uses 'count'
as the index for null termination instead of the actual bytes copied.
If count exceeds the buffer size, this leads to out-of-bounds write.
Add a check for the count and use the return value as the index.
The bug was validated using a demo module that mirrors the original
code and was tested under QEMU.
Pattern of the bug:
- A fixed 64-byte stack buffer is filled using count.
- If count > 64, the code still does buf[count] = '\0', causing an
- out-of-bounds write on the stack.
Steps for reproduce:
- Opens the device node.
- Writes 128 bytes of A to it.
- This overflows the 64-byte stack buffer and KASAN reports the OOB.
Found via static analysis. This is similar to the
commit da9374819eb3 ("iio: backend: fix out-of-bound write")

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
uacce: fix isolate sysfs check condition
uacce supports the device isolation feature. If the driver
implements the isolate_err_threshold_read and
isolate_err_threshold_write callback functions, uacce will create
sysfs files now. Users can read and configure the isolation policy
through sysfs. Currently, sysfs files are created as long as either
isolate_err_threshold_read or isolate_err_threshold_write callback
functions are present.
However, accessing a non-existent callback function may cause the
system to crash. Therefore, intercept the creation of sysfs if
neither read nor write exists; create sysfs if either is supported,
but intercept unsupported operations at the call site.
