| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm-era: fix shadowed superblock leak on take-snap failure
metadata_take_snap() bumps the live superblock refcount and then
dm_tm_shadow_block() allocates a new block for the metadata snapshot.
If the subsequent dm_sm_inc_block() of writeset_tree_root or
era_array_root fails, the function only unlocks the clone and
returns. The newly allocated shadow block is never returned to the
metadata space map, so each failed take-snap permanently leaks one
metadata block.
Free the clone with dm_sm_dec_block() on those error paths, matching
the final step of metadata_drop_snap(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
SUNRPC: wait for in-flight client TLS handshake callback
xs_tls_handshake_sync() gives xs_tls_handshake_done() a reference to the
lower transport before submitting the handshake request. On timeout or
signal, the synchronous waiter drops that reference after calling
tls_handshake_cancel().
handshake_req_cancel() returns false when handshake_complete() has
already marked the request complete. In that case the completion callback
can still be running, so dropping the callback-owned reference in the
waiter can free the lower transport before xs_tls_handshake_done() stores
xprt_err or drops its own reference.
If cancellation loses to completion, wait until xs_tls_handshake_done()
signals handshake_done and let the callback release its reference. This
mirrors the server-side handshake lifetime handling and keeps the timeout
or signal return value unchanged. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: fix socket refcount leak in smc_switch_conns()
smc_switch_conns() takes a reference on the SMC socket before dropping
lgr->conns_lock, so the connection stays alive while the CDC slot is
fetched:
sock_hold(&smc->sk);
read_unlock_bh(&lgr->conns_lock);
/* pre-fetch buffer outside of send_lock, might sleep */
rc = smc_cdc_get_free_slot(conn, to_lnk, &wr_buf, NULL, &pend);
if (rc)
goto err_out;
The err_out label only drops the wr_tx link reference, so this early exit
returns without the matching sock_put(). The second error exit is not
affected, because sock_put() has already run by then.
A leaked sk_refcnt means the smc_sock is never destroyed. Its send and
receive buffers stay allocated, and for a user socket the reference held
on the network namespace is never released, so the netns can no longer be
torn down.
smc_cdc_get_free_slot() fails when the target link goes down or when the
connection has been killed while the switch is in progress. Both are
reachable during the link failover this function implements, so the leak
is triggered by the same hardware events that make smc_switch_conns() run
in the first place.
Restructure so there is a single sock_put() covering both outcomes,
instead of adding a second one to the error path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvme: target: rdma: fix ndev refcount leak on queue connect
nvmet_rdma_queue_connect() calls nvmet_rdma_find_get_device() which
acquires a reference on the returned ndev via kref_get(). On the path
where the host queue backlog is exceeded and the function returns
NVME_SC_CONNECT_CTRL_BUSY, reference of ndev is not released, leaking
the kref.
Fix this by adding a goto to the existing put_device label before the
early return. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix use-after-free in smb2_open during durable reconnect
In smb2_open, the call to ksmbd_put_durable_fd(fp) drops the reference
to the durable file descriptor early during the durable reconnect
process. If an error occurs subsequently (eg, ksmbd_iov_pin_rsp fails)
or a scavenger accesses the file, it leads to a use-after-free when
accessing fp properties (eg fp->create_time).
Move the single put to the end of the function below err_out2 so fp
stays valid until smb2_open returns. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: clear CALLBACK_RUNNING on failed delegation recall queue
nfsd_break_one_deleg() sets NFSD4_CALLBACK_RUNNING via test_and_set_bit
at entry to serialize recall work, then calls nfsd4_run_cb() to queue
the recall. When the queue attempt fails the refcount bump is undone,
but the RUNNING bit is left set. The only site that clears the bit is
nfsd41_destroy_cb() (fs/nfsd/nfs4callback.c), which runs from the
workqueue and is therefore unreachable when nothing was queued.
The bit becomes a permanent latch on dp->dl_recall.cb_flags: every
subsequent break_lease() on the same delegation hits the early-return
guard in nfsd_break_one_deleg() and silently skips the recall, so the
delegation is never broken and the conflicting open or lock stalls.
Fix by clearing NFSD4_CALLBACK_RUNNING on the !queued branch alongside
the refcount_dec. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix nfsd_file leak on inter-server COPY setup failure
When nfsd4_setup_inter_ssc() fails, nfsd4_copy() returns
nfserr_offload_denied directly, bypassing the out: label where
release_copy_files() would drop the nf_dst reference taken by
nfs4_preprocess_stateid_op(). Each failed inter-server COPY
leaks one nfsd_file, pinning file/inode/dentry/vfsmount.
Fix by setting status and jumping to out: instead of returning
directly. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: release OPEN-decoded posix ACLs via op_release
nfsd4_decode_createhow4() calls nfsd4_decode_fattr4(), which allocates
refcounted struct posix_acl objects via posix_acl_alloc() and stores
them in open->op_pacl and open->op_dpacl. These pointers must be
released once the OPEN compound finishes.
When nfsd4_decode_open_claim4() returns a non-seqid-mutating error,
the dispatcher short-circuits before op_func runs:
nfsd4_proc_compound()
if (op->status && op->opnum == OP_OPEN)
op->status = nfsd4_open_omfg(...)
if (!seqid_mutating_err(ntohl(op->status)))
return op->status; /* nfsd4_open() never runs */
...
opdesc->op_release(&op->u) /* must still release op_pacl/op_dpacl */
Before this change OP_OPEN had no .op_release in nfsd4_ops[], and the
release pair lived inside nfsd4_open() at its out_err: label. On the
short-circuit path nfsd4_open() is never invoked, so both posix_acl
refs leak on every malformed OPEN compound that carries valid POSIX
ACL createhow4 attributes.
Add nfsd4_open_release() and wire it as .op_release for OP_OPEN.
posix_acl_release() is NULL-safe, so the single release site covers
both the normal path and the nfsd4_open_omfg short-circuit. Remove
the matching posix_acl_release() pair from nfsd4_open()'s out_err:
label to avoid double-releasing.
The compound loop has two encoding branches: nfsd4_encode_operation()
for normal ops, and nfsd4_encode_replay() for v4.0 replayed ops.
op_release was only called from nfsd4_encode_operation(), so resources
attached to op->u leak on the replay path.
Move the op_release() call out of nfsd4_encode_operation() and the
replay branch, placing it after the if-else in nfsd4_proc_compound().
This gives a single call site in a fairly obviously-correct place,
covering both the normal encoding and replay paths. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ceph: fix leaked inode reference on writeback abort at umount
ceph_dirty_folio() takes a wrbuffer claim on each newly dirtied folio: it
bumps i_wrbuffer_ref (taking an ihold() on the 0->1 transition) and
attaches the snap_context to folio->private. That claim is released only
by ceph_put_wrbuffer_cap_refs(), which for a submitted write runs from
writepages_finish().
In ceph_submit_write(), if ceph_inc_osd_stopping_blocker() fails -- which
happens during umount -- the request is aborted before submission: the
already-collected folios are only redirtied and unlocked, so
writepages_finish() never runs and the claim is leaked.
redirty_page_for_writepage() -> folio_redirty_for_writepage() ->
filemap_dirty_folio() sets PG_dirty directly and does not go through
->dirty_folio, so ceph_dirty_folio() is not re-entered to rebalance it.
Because every subsequent writeback also fails the osd_stopping_blocker,
i_wrbuffer_ref never returns to 0, the ihold() is never dropped, and the
inode cannot be evicted:
VFS: Busy inodes after unmount of ceph
kernel BUG at fs/super.c:650!
Release the orphaned claim in the abort path before redirtying, via
ceph_undo_wrbuffer_claim(): detach the snap_context, drop the wrbuffer
reference (letting i_wrbuffer_ref reach 0 and iput() the inode), and drop
the snap_context reference -- i.e. do what writepages_finish() would have
done for these never-submitted folios.
Only the locked_pages entries are undone; folios still in the fbatch were
never dirty-cleared by this call (folio_clear_dirty_for_io() is the
ownership-transfer point, and a successful move NULLs the fbatch slot), so
they hold no claim this call owns. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
SUNRPC: close backchannel before destroying callback service
A backchannel receive can complete a request while the NFS callback
service is being torn down. xprt_complete_bc_request() removes the
request from bc_pa_list, drops bc_alloc_count, marks the request in use,
and then asks xprt_enqueue_bc_request() to hand it to the callback
service.
If teardown has already cleared xprt->bc_serv, xprt_enqueue_bc_request()
currently returns without enqueueing or freeing the committed request.
The xprt_get() taken on entry is leaked as well. If the producer wins
the race before bc_serv is cleared, it can also enqueue onto sv_cb_list
after nfs_callback_down() has stopped the callback threads, leaving the
request linked to a svc_serv that is about to be freed.
Close the producer side before callback threads are stopped. Add
xprt_svc_shutdown_bc() to clear xprt->bc_serv under bc_pa_lock, and call
it on callback shutdown and callback-start failure before stopping the
service threads. Requests that lose the NULL transition in
xprt_enqueue_bc_request() are released through the normal backchannel
free path after balancing bc_slot_count. Finally, drain any remaining
sv_cb_list requests after the callback threads have stopped and before
svc_destroy() frees the service. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFS/localio: fix ref leak on nfs_uuid_add_file failure
When nfs_uuid_add_file() races with nfs_uuid_put() tearing down
uuid->net, it returns -ENXIO without publishing nfl->nfs_uuid via
rcu_assign_pointer(). nfs_open_local_fh() then enters its error
branch and only releases the slot's file ref and its paired net
ref plus its own entry-time net ref, while the close path is a
no-op:
nfs_close_local_fh()
nfs_uuid = rcu_dereference(nfl->nfs_uuid);
if (!nfs_uuid) { rcu_read_unlock(); return; } /* always */
nfsd_open_local_fh() returns localio holding a caller-owned +1
nfsd_file reference (from nfsd_file_get() after
nfsd_file_acquire_local()) and an entry-time nfsd_net reference
(from its first nfsd_net_try_get()) embedded as nf->nf_net. Both
are leaked on the failure path, pinning one nfsd_file (and the
underlying struct file, dentry, inode) and one nfsd_net_ref per
occurrence, which blocks nfsd_net and netns teardown.
Fix by releasing the caller-owned file ref and its net ref through
the existing helper, using a stack-local RCU pointer so the helper
can xchg it out, then returning -ENXIO so callers do not
dereference a localio whose slot has been cleared:
struct nfsd_file __rcu *tmp = RCU_INITIALIZER(localio);
nfs_to_nfsd_file_put_local(pnf);
nfs_to_nfsd_file_put_local(&tmp);
localio = ERR_PTR(-ENXIO);
The trailing nfs_to_nfsd_net_put(net) continues to release the
outer net ref, so all three nfsd_net_try_get() increments are
balanced on the error branch. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/mglru: fix and remove redundant unevictable folio handling
sort_folio() has a shortcut for moving folios that are no longer evictable
but are still sitting on a generation list. However, this shortcut is
buggy. It does not follow the PG_lru usage convention, and it has a more
serious issue.
Unevictable folios are not threaded on lists[LRU_UNEVICTABLE], so that
folio->lru can be reused to hold folio->mlock_count (see the comment in
lruvec_init()). Hence lruvec_add_folio() skips the list_add() for them,
and every other place that turns a folio unevictable initialises
mlock_count explicitly: lru_add() sets it to 0, __mlock_folio() and
__mlock_new_folio() set it to !!folio_test_mlocked(folio). sort_folio()
sets nothing, and the lru_gen_del_folio() right above it may have already
poisoned folio->lru via list_del(), so mlock_count ends up aliasing
LIST_POISON2, which reads as 0x122, i.e. 290. The result is user
visible. On munlock, __munlock_folio() decrements that bogus count, finds
it still non-zero and bails out before clearing PG_mlocked, so the folio
remains unevictable and the Mlocked accounting stays inflated until the
folio is freed.
The shortcut also touches the LRU flags in the wrong order. It calls
lru_gen_del_folio() while PG_lru is still set, so a concurrent
folio_test_clear_lru() (e.g. compaction, folio_isolate_lru()) can succeed
on a folio that has already been taken off the generation list, which may
lead to unexpected behavior.
So fix it by isolating them as common folios and letting the generic
shrink path cull them. This matches the classical LRU behavior, and there
should be no visible effect on the generic eviction or isolation behavior.
There is no performance concern either, such a folio goes through this
once, and then it is off the generation lists for good. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix dentry ref leak on V4ROOT export filehandle lookup
nfsd_set_fh_dentry() leaks the dentry reference from
exportfs_decode_fh_raw() when the NFS3_FHSIZE or NFS_FHSIZE
switch cases detect NFSEXP_V4ROOT and goto out. The out: label
calls exp_put() but never dput(dentry), and fhp->fh_dentry was
never assigned so fh_put() cannot compensate.
A crafted NFSv3 filehandle targeting a V4ROOT export's fsid
triggers the leak on every request. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: drop recovered reloc root refs on recovery failure
During relocation recovery, each fs root gets a reference to its relocation
root. If loading or adding a later root fails, or if the first transaction
commit fails, btrfs_recover_relocation() jumps to out_unset before
merge_reloc_roots() and clean_dirty_subvols().
put_reloc_control() drops the list-owned relocation root references, but it
does not clear fs_root->reloc_root or drop the references owned by those
pointers. Mount cleanup only drops them when BTRFS_FS_ERROR is set, so an
error such as -ENOMEM while processing a later root can leave references
behind.
Keep temporary references to the fs roots associated during recovery. On
failure, clear their reloc_root pointers and drop the corresponding
references. Once the first transaction commit succeeds, drop only the
temporary fs root references and let the normal merge and cleanup paths
handle the relocation roots.
Fault injection on a pending-relocation image confirmed the cleanup gap.
With an injected first-commit failure, 25 fs roots had reloc_root set with
fs_error=0. With this fix, the same failure path drops that count to 0
before mount fails. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
accel/rocket: Fix error path handling in rocket_job_run()
In rocket_job_run(), after taking an extra fence reference for
job->done_fence via dma_fence_get(), the error paths have three bugs:
- The dma_fence reference held by job->done_fence is never released,
causing a reference leak.
- pm_runtime_get_sync() increments the usage counter even on failure,
but the error path does not decrement it, leaking the runtime PM
reference and preventing the NPU from suspending.
- A valid but unsignaled fence is returned to the DRM scheduler,
which triggers WARN("Fence ... released with pending signals!")
when the scheduler drops its reference.
Fix by replacing pm_runtime_get_sync() with pm_runtime_resume_and_get()
which auto-balances the usage counter on failure, releasing both fence
references on error, and returning ERR_PTR(ret) instead of the
unsignaled fence.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/amd: Put PCI device after handling PPR faults
iommu_call_iopf_notifier() looks up the requester with
pci_get_domain_bus_and_slot(), which returns a PCI device with its
reference count incremented.
Neither the successful iommu_report_device_fault() path nor the abort
path drops that reference, so every handled PPR request leaks a PCI
device reference.
This is the same ownership rule that was fixed for the old iommu_v2
ppr_notifier() path by commit 6cf0981c2233 ("iommu/amd: Fix pci device
refcount leak in ppr_notifier()"), but iommu_call_iopf_notifier() was
added later as a separate PPR/IOPF notifier path.
Drop the PCI device reference after handling the PPR entry. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommufd: Avoid locking internal accesses during unmap
iommufd_access_notify_unmap() skips internal accesses because they do
not have an external unmap callback to invoke.
However, the current test calls iommufd_lock_obj() before checking
whether the access is internal. If iommufd_lock_obj() succeeds, the loop
then sees the internal access and continues, bypassing the matching
iommufd_put_object() used by the normal unmap path. This leaks the
object reference taken by iommufd_lock_obj().
Check for internal accesses first so skipped entries are never locked. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware_loader: fix device reference leak in firmware_upload_register()
firmware_upload_register()
-> fw_create_instance()
-> device_initialize()
After fw_create_instance() succeeds, the lifetime of the embedded struct
device is expected to be managed through the device core reference
counting, since fw_create_instance() has already called
device_initialize().
In firmware_upload_register(), if alloc_lookup_fw_priv() fails after
fw_create_instance() succeeds, the code reaches free_fw_sysfs and frees
fw_sysfs directly instead of releasing the device reference with
put_device(). This may leave the reference count of the embedded struct
device unbalanced, resulting in a refcount leak.
The issue was identified by a static analysis tool I developed and
confirmed by manual review. Fix this by using put_device(fw_dev) in the
failure path and letting fw_dev_release() handle the final cleanup,
instead of freeing the instance directly from the error path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_printer: take kref only for successful open
printer_open() returns -EBUSY when the character device is already
open, but it increments dev->kref regardless of the return value. VFS
does not call ->release() for a failed open, so every rejected second
open permanently leaks one reference.
Move kref_get() into the successful-open branch. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfs: Fix folio->private handling in netfs_perform_write()
Under some circumstances, netfs_perform_write() doesn't correctly
manipulate folio->private between NULL, NETFS_FOLIO_COPY_TO_CACHE, pointing
to a group and pointing to a netfs_folio struct, leading to potential
multiple attachments of private data with associated folio ref leaks and
also leaks of netfs_folio structs or netfs_group refs.
Fix this by consolidating the place at which a folio is marked uptodate in
one place and having that look at what's attached to folio->private and
decide how to clean it up and then set the new group. Also, the content
shouldn't be flushed if group is NULL, even if a group is specified in the
netfs_group parameter, as that would be the case for a new folio. A
filesystem should always specify netfs_group or never specify netfs_group.
The Sashiko auto-review tool noted that it was theoretically possible that
the fpos >= ctx->zero_point section might leak if it modified a streaming
write folio. This is unlikely, but with a network filesystem, third party
changes can happen. It also pointed out that __netfs_set_group() would
leak if called multiple times on the same folio from the "whole folio
modify section". |
