Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/fdinfo: fix OOB read in SQE_MIXED wrap check
__io_uring_show_fdinfo() iterates over pending SQEs and, for 128-byte
SQEs on an IORING_SETUP_SQE_MIXED ring, needs to detect when the second
half of the SQE would be past the end of the sq_sqes array. The current
check tests (++sq_head & sq_mask) == 0, but sq_head is only incremented
when a 128-byte SQE is encountered, not on every iteration. The actual
array index is sq_idx = (i + sq_head) & sq_mask, which can be sq_mask
(the last slot) while the wrap check passes.
Fix by checking sq_idx directly. Keep the sq_head increment so the loop
still skips the second half of the 128-byte SQE on the next iteration.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: spi-fsl-lpspi: fix teardown order issue (UAF)
There is a teardown order issue in the driver. The SPI controller is
registered using devm_spi_register_controller(), which delays
unregistration of the SPI controller until after the fsl_lpspi_remove()
function returns.
As the fsl_lpspi_remove() function synchronously tears down the DMA
channels, a running SPI transfer triggers the following NULL pointer
dereference due to use after free:
| fsl_lpspi 42550000.spi: I/O Error in DMA RX
| Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000000
[...]
| Call trace:

Switch from devm_spi_register_controller() to spi_register_controller() in
fsl_lpspi_probe() and add the corresponding spi_unregister_controller() in
fsl_lpspi_remove().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: isotp: fix tx.buf use-after-free in isotp_sendmsg()
isotp_sendmsg() uses only cmpxchg() on so->tx.state to serialize access
to so->tx.buf. isotp_release() waits for ISOTP_IDLE via
wait_event_interruptible() and then calls kfree(so->tx.buf).
If a signal interrupts the wait_event_interruptible() inside close()
while tx.state is ISOTP_SENDING, the loop exits early and release
proceeds to force ISOTP_SHUTDOWN and continues to kfree(so->tx.buf)
while sendmsg may still be reading so->tx.buf for the final CAN frame
in isotp_fill_dataframe().
The so->tx.buf can be allocated once when the standard tx.buf length needs
to be extended. Move the kfree() of this potentially extended tx.buf to
sk_destruct time when either isotp_sendmsg() and isotp_release() are done.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: sma1307: fix double free of devm_kzalloc() memory
A previous change added NULL checks and cleanup for allocation
failures in sma1307_setting_loaded().
However, the cleanup for mode_set entries is wrong. Those entries are
allocated with devm_kzalloc(), so they are device-managed resources and
must not be freed with kfree(). Manually freeing them in the error path
can lead to a double free when devres later releases the same memory.
Drop the manual kfree() loop and let devres handle the cleanup.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: do not expire session on binding failure
When a multichannel session binding request fails (e.g. wrong password),
the error path unconditionally sets sess->state = SMB2_SESSION_EXPIRED.
However, during binding, sess points to the target session looked up via
ksmbd_session_lookup_slowpath() -- which belongs to another connection's
user. This allows a remote attacker to invalidate any active session by
simply sending a binding request with a wrong password (DoS).
Fix this by skipping session expiration when the failed request was
a binding attempt, since the session does not belong to the current
connection. The reference taken by ksmbd_session_lookup_slowpath() is
still correctly released via ksmbd_user_session_put().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix memory leaks and NULL deref in smb2_lock()
smb2_lock() has three error handling issues after list_del() detaches
smb_lock from lock_list at no_check_cl:
1) If vfs_lock_file() returns an unexpected error in the non-UNLOCK
path, goto out leaks smb_lock and its flock because the out:
handler only iterates lock_list and rollback_list, neither of
which contains the detached smb_lock.
2) If vfs_lock_file() returns -ENOENT in the UNLOCK path, goto out
leaks smb_lock and flock for the same reason. The error code
returned to the dispatcher is also stale.
3) In the rollback path, smb_flock_init() can return NULL on
allocation failure. The result is dereferenced unconditionally,
causing a kernel NULL pointer dereference. Add a NULL check to
prevent the crash and clean up the bookkeeping; the VFS lock
itself cannot be rolled back without the allocation and will be
released at file or connection teardown.
Fix cases 1 and 2 by hoisting the locks_free_lock()/kfree() to before
the if(!rc) check in the UNLOCK branch so all exit paths share one
free site, and by freeing smb_lock and flock before goto out in the
non-UNLOCK branch. Propagate the correct error code in both cases.
Fix case 3 by wrapping the VFS unlock in an if(rlock) guard and adding
a NULL check for locks_free_lock(rlock) in the shared cleanup.
Found via call-graph analysis using sqry.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: replace hardcoded hdr2_len with offsetof() in smb2_calc_max_out_buf_len()
After this commit (e2b76ab8b5c9 "ksmbd: add support for read compound"),
response buffer management was changed to use dynamic iov array.
In the new design, smb2_calc_max_out_buf_len() expects the second
argument (hdr2_len) to be the offset of ->Buffer field in the
response structure, not a hardcoded magic number.
Fix the remaining call sites to use the correct offsetof() value.

Which seems to hint that the vma we are re-inserting for the ops unwind
is either invalid or overlapping with something already inserted in the
vm. It shouldn't be invalid since this is a re-insertion, so must have
worked before. Leaving the likely culprit as something already placed
where we want to insert the vma.
Following from that, for the case where we do something like a rebind in
the middle of a vma, and one or both mapped ends are already compatible,
we skip doing the rebind of those vma and set next/prev to NULL. As well
as then adjust the original unmap va range, to avoid unmapping the ends.
However, if we trigger the unwind path, we end up with three va, with
the two ends never being removed and the original va range in the middle
still being the shrunken size.
If this occurs, one failure mode is when another unwind op needs to
interact with that range, which can happen with a vector of binds. For
example, if we need to re-insert something in place of the original va.
In this case the va is still the shrunken version, so when removing it
and then doing a re-insert it can overlap with the ends, which were
never removed, triggering a warning like above, plus leaving the vm in a
bad state.
With that, we need two things here:
1) Stop nuking the prev/next tracking for the skip cases. Instead
relying on checking for skip prev/next, where needed. That way on the
unwind path, we now correctly remove both ends.
2) Undo the unmap va shrinkage, on the unwind path. With the two ends
now removed the unmap va should expand back to the original size again,
before re-insertion.
v2:
- Update the explanation in the commit message, based on an actual IGT of
triggering this issue, rather than conjecture.
- Also undo the unmap shrinkage, for the skip case. With the two ends
now removed, the original unmap va range should expand back to the
original range.
v3:
- Track the old start/range separately. vma_size/start() uses the va
info directly.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: iptfs: validate inner IPv4 header length in IPTFS payload
Add validation of the inner IPv4 packet tot_len and ihl fields parsed
from decrypted IPTFS payloads in __input_process_payload(). A crafted
ESP packet containing an inner IPv4 header with tot_len=0 causes an
infinite loop: iplen=0 leads to capturelen=min(0, remaining)=0, so the
data offset never advances and the while(data < tail) loop never
terminates, spinning forever in softirq context.
Reject inner IPv4 packets where tot_len < ihl*4 or ihl*4 < sizeof(struct
iphdr), which catches both the tot_len=0 case and malformed ihl values.
The normal IP stack performs this validation in ip_rcv_core(), but IPTFS
extracts and processes inner packets before they reach that layer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: mc, v4l2: serialize REINIT and REQBUFS with req_queue_mutex
MEDIA_REQUEST_IOC_REINIT can run concurrently with VIDIOC_REQBUFS(0)
queue teardown paths. This can race request object cleanup against vb2
queue cancellation and lead to use-after-free reports.
We already serialize request queueing against STREAMON/OFF with
req_queue_mutex. Extend that serialization to REQBUFS, and also take
the same mutex in media_request_ioctl_reinit() so REINIT is in the
same exclusion domain.
This keeps request cleanup and queue cancellation from running in
parallel for request-capable devices.
