bpf: Fix issue in verifying allow_ptr_leaks
After we converted the capabilities of our networking-bpf program from
cap_sys_admin to cap_net_admin+cap_bpf, our networking-bpf program
failed to start. Because it failed the bpf verifier, and the error log
is "R3 pointer comparison prohibited".
A simple reproducer as follows,
SEC("cls-ingress")
int ingress(struct __sk_buff *skb)
{
struct iphdr *iph = (void *)(long)skb->data + sizeof(struct ethhdr);
if ((long)(iph + 1) > (long)skb->data_end)
return TC_ACT_STOLEN;
return TC_ACT_OK;
}
Per discussion with Yonghong and Alexei [1], comparison of two packet
pointers is not a pointer leak. This patch fixes it.
Our local kernel is 6.1.y and we expect this fix to be backported to
6.1.y, so stable is CCed.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: remove BUG_ON()'s in add_new_free_space()
At add_new_free_space() we have these BUG_ON()'s that are there to deal
with any failure to add free space to the in memory free space cache.
Such failures are mostly -ENOMEM that should be very rare. However there's
no need to have these BUG_ON()'s, we can just return any error to the
caller and all callers and their upper call chain are already dealing with
errors.
So just make add_new_free_space() return any errors, while removing the
BUG_ON()'s, and returning the total amount of added free space to an
optional u64 pointer argument. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: apple-admac: Fix 'current_tx' not getting freed
In terminate_all we should queue up all submitted descriptors to be
freed. We do that for the content of the 'issued' and 'submitted' lists,
but the 'current_tx' descriptor falls through the cracks as it's
removed from the 'issued' list once it gets assigned to be the current
descriptor. Explicitly queue up freeing of the 'current_tx' descriptor
to address a memory leak that is otherwise present. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pstore/ram: Add check for kstrdup
Add check for the return value of kstrdup() and return the error
if it fails in order to avoid NULL pointer dereference. |

leds: led-core: Fix refcount leak in of_led_get()
class_find_device_by_of_node() calls class_find_device(), it will take
the reference, use the put_device() to drop the reference when not need
anymore. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
exfat: use kvmalloc_array/kvfree instead of kmalloc_array/kfree
The call stack shown below is a scenario in the Linux 4.19 kernel.
Allocating memory failed where exfat fs use kmalloc_array due to
system memory fragmentation, while the u-disk was inserted without
recognition.
Devices such as u-disk using the exfat file system are pluggable and
may be insert into the system at any time.
However, long-term running systems cannot guarantee the continuity of
physical memory. Therefore, it's necessary to address this issue.

is not required here,so kvmalloc_array is used can solve this problem. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rxrpc: Fix timeout of a call that hasn't yet been granted a channel
afs_make_call() calls rxrpc_kernel_begin_call() to begin a call (which may
get stalled in the background waiting for a connection to become
available); it then calls rxrpc_kernel_set_max_life() to set the timeouts -
but that starts the call timer so the call timer might then expire before
we get a connection assigned - leading to the following oops if the call
stalled:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000

Fix this by noting the timeouts in struct rxrpc_call when the call is
created. The timer will be started when the first packet is transmitted.
It shouldn't be possible to trigger this directly from userspace through
AF_RXRPC as sendmsg() will return EBUSY if the call is in the
waiting-for-conn state if it dropped out of the wait due to a signal. |

block: fix blktrace debugfs entries leakage
Commit 99d055b4fd4b ("block: remove per-disk debugfs files in
blk_unregister_queue") moves blk_trace_shutdown() from
blk_release_queue() to blk_unregister_queue(), this is safe if blktrace
is created through sysfs, however, there is a regression in corner
case.
blktrace can still be enabled after del_gendisk() through ioctl if
the disk is opened before del_gendisk(), and if blktrace is not shutdown
through ioctl before closing the disk, debugfs entries will be leaked.
Fix this problem by shutdown blktrace in disk_release(), this is safe
because blk_trace_remove() is reentrant. |

The problem was caused by the fact that the driver does not check
whether the endpoints it uses are actually present and have the
appropriate types. This can be fixed by adding a simple check of
the endpoints. |

Revert "drm/msm: Add missing check and destroy for alloc_ordered_workqueue"
This reverts commit 643b7d0869cc7f1f7a5ac7ca6bd25d88f54e31d0.
A recent patch that tried to fix up the msm_drm_init() paths with
respect to the workqueue but only ended up making things worse:
First, the newly added calls to msm_drm_uninit() on early errors would
trigger NULL-pointer dereferences, for example, as the kms pointer would
not have been initialised. (Note that these paths were also modified by
a second broken error handling patch which in effect cancelled out this
part when merged.)
Second, the newly added allocation sanity check would still leak the
previously allocated drm device.
Instead of trying to salvage what was badly broken (and clearly not
tested), let's revert the bad commit so that clean and backportable
fixes can be added in its place.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI: cadence: Check for the existence of cdns_pcie::ops before using it
cdns_pcie::ops might not be populated by all the Cadence glue drivers. This
is going to be true for the upcoming Sophgo platform which doesn't set the
ops.
Hence, add a check to prevent NULL pointer dereference.

---- ----
lock(&q->q_usage_counter(queue)#3);
lock(&q->rq_qos_mutex);
lock(&q->q_usage_counter(queue)#3);

Root cause is that queue_usage_counter is grabbed with rq_qos_mutex
held in blkg_conf_prep(), while queue should be freezed before
rq_qos_mutex from other context.
The blk_queue_enter() from blkg_conf_prep() is used to protect against
policy deactivation, which is already protected with blkcg_mutex, hence
convert blk_queue_enter() to blkcg_mutex to fix this problem. Meanwhile,
consider that blkcg_mutex is held after queue is freezed from policy
deactivation, also convert blkg_alloc() to use GFP_NOIO. |

LoongArch: BPF: Disable trampoline for kernel module function trace
The current LoongArch BPF trampoline implementation is incompatible
with tracing functions in kernel modules. This causes several severe
and user-visible problems:
* The `bpf_selftests/module_attach` test fails consistently.
* Kernel lockup when a BPF program is attached to a module function [1].
* Critical kernel modules like WireGuard experience traffic disruption
when their functions are traced with fentry [2].
Given the severity and the potential for other unknown side-effects, it
is safest to disable the feature entirely for now. This patch prevents
the BPF subsystem from allowing trampoline attachments to kernel module
functions on LoongArch.
This is a temporary mitigation until the core issues in the trampoline
code for kernel module handling can be identified and fixed.

Standardize the error handling by making the function return NULL on
all error conditions. The API is used in just the netcp_core.c so the
impact is limited.
Note, this change, in effect reverts commit 5b6cb43b4d62 ("net:
ethernet: ti: netcp_core: return error while dma channel open issue"),
but provides a less error prone implementation. |

mptcp: fix address removal logic in mptcp_pm_nl_rm_addr
Fix inverted WARN_ON_ONCE condition that prevented normal address
removal counter updates. The current code only executes decrement
logic when the counter is already 0 (abnormal state), while
normal removals (counter > 0) are ignored. |

net: netpoll: fix incorrect refcount handling causing incorrect cleanup
commit efa95b01da18 ("netpoll: fix use after free") incorrectly
ignored the refcount and prematurely set dev->npinfo to NULL during
netpoll cleanup, leading to improper behavior and memory leaks.
Scenario causing lack of proper cleanup:
1) A netpoll is associated with a NIC (e.g., eth0) and netdev->npinfo is
allocated, and refcnt = 1
- Keep in mind that npinfo is shared among all netpoll instances. In
this case, there is just one.
2) Another netpoll is also associated with the same NIC and
npinfo->refcnt += 1.
- Now dev->npinfo->refcnt = 2;
- There is just one npinfo associated to the netdev.
3) When the first netpolls goes to clean up:
- The first cleanup succeeds and clears np->dev->npinfo, ignoring
refcnt.
- It basically calls `RCU_INIT_POINTER(np->dev->npinfo, NULL);`
- Set dev->npinfo = NULL, without proper cleanup
- No ->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() is either called
4) Now the second target tries to clean up
- The second cleanup fails because np->dev->npinfo is already NULL.
* In this case, ops->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() was never called, and
the skb pool is not cleaned as well (for the second netpoll
instance)
- This leaks npinfo and skbpool skbs, which is clearly reported by
kmemleak.
Revert commit efa95b01da18 ("netpoll: fix use after free") and adds
clarifying comments emphasizing that npinfo cleanup should only happen
once the refcount reaches zero, ensuring stable and correct netpoll
behavior. |

bfs: Reconstruct file type when loading from disk
syzbot is reporting that S_IFMT bits of inode->i_mode can become bogus when
the S_IFMT bits of the 32bits "mode" field loaded from disk are corrupted
or when the 32bits "attributes" field loaded from disk are corrupted.
A documentation says that BFS uses only lower 9 bits of the "mode" field.
But I can't find an explicit explanation that the unused upper 23 bits
(especially, the S_IFMT bits) are initialized with 0.
Therefore, ignore the S_IFMT bits of the "mode" field loaded from disk.
Also, verify that the value of the "attributes" field loaded from disk is
either BFS_VREG or BFS_VDIR (because BFS supports only regular files and
the root directory). |
