Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 2.6.26.7 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp: Fix data-races around sysctl_tcp_base_mss.
While reading sysctl_tcp_base_mss, it can be changed concurrently.
Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its readers.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: qat - add param check for RSA
Reject requests with a source buffer that is bigger than the size of the
key. This is to prevent a possible integer underflow that might happen
when copying the source scatterlist into a linear buffer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/mempolicy: fix uninit-value in mpol_rebind_policy()
mpol_set_nodemask()(mm/mempolicy.c) does not set up nodemask when
pol->mode is MPOL_LOCAL. Check pol->mode before access
pol->w.cpuset_mems_allowed in mpol_rebind_policy()(mm/mempolicy.c).

KMSAN: uninit-value in mpol_rebind_task (2)

This patch seems to fix below bug too.
KMSAN: uninit-value in mpol_rebind_mm (2)
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=f2fecd0d7013f54ec4162f60743a2b28df40926b
The uninit-value is pol->w.cpuset_mems_allowed in mpol_rebind_policy().
When syzkaller reproducer runs to the beginning of mpol_new(),
mpol_new() mm/mempolicy.c
do_mbind() mm/mempolicy.c
kernel_mbind() mm/mempolicy.c
`mode` is 1(MPOL_PREFERRED), nodes_empty(*nodes) is `true` and `flags`
is 0. Then
mode = MPOL_LOCAL;
...
policy->mode = mode;
policy->flags = flags;
will be executed. So in mpol_set_nodemask(),
mpol_set_nodemask() mm/mempolicy.c
do_mbind()
kernel_mbind()
pol->mode is 4 (MPOL_LOCAL), that `nodemask` in `pol` is not initialized,
which will be accessed in mpol_rebind_policy().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: Don't null dereference ops->destroy
A KVM device cleanup happens in either of two callbacks:
1) destroy() which is called when the VM is being destroyed;
2) release() which is called when a device fd is closed.
Most KVM devices use 1) but Book3s's interrupt controller KVM devices
(XICS, XIVE, XIVE-native) use 2) as they need to close and reopen during
the machine execution. The error handling in kvm_ioctl_create_device()
assumes destroy() is always defined which leads to NULL dereference as
discovered by Syzkaller.
This adds a checks for destroy!=NULL and adds a missing release().
This is not changing kvm_destroy_devices() as devices with defined
release() should have been removed from the KVM devices list by then.

Kernel panic - not syncing: Hard LOCKUP
The same CPU tries to claim the phba->port_list_lock twice.
Move the cfg_log_verbose checks as part of the lpfc_printf_vlog() and
lpfc_printf_log() macros before calling lpfc_dmp_dbg(). There is no need
to take the phba->port_list_lock within lpfc_dmp_dbg().
