spmi: Add a check for remove callback when removing a SPMI driver
When removing a SPMI driver, there can be a crash due to NULL pointer
dereference if it does not have a remove callback defined. This is

If a driver has all its resources allocated through devm_() APIs and
does not need any other explicit cleanup, it would not require a
remove callback to be defined. Hence, add a check for remove callback
presence before calling it when removing a SPMI driver. |

Chain exists of:

Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(&q->q_usage_counter(queue)#3);
lock(&q->rq_qos_mutex);
lock(&q->q_usage_counter(queue)#3);
lock(&q->sysfs_lock);
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. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtl8xxxu: Fix memory leaks with RTL8723BU, RTL8192EU
The wifi + bluetooth combo chip RTL8723BU can leak memory (especially?)
when it's connected to a bluetooth audio device. The busy bluetooth
traffic generates lots of C2H (card to host) messages, which are not
freed correctly.
To fix this, move the dev_kfree_skb() call in rtl8xxxu_c2hcmd_callback()
inside the loop where skb_dequeue() is called.
The RTL8192EU leaks memory because the C2H messages are added to the
queue and left there forever. (This was fine in the past because it
probably wasn't sending any C2H messages until commit e542e66b7c2e
("wifi: rtl8xxxu: gen2: Turn on the rate control"). Since that commit
it sends a C2H message when the TX rate changes.)
To fix this, delete the check for rf_paths > 1 and the goto. Let the
function process the C2H messages from RTL8192EU like the ones from
the other chips.
Theoretically the RTL8188FU could also leak like RTL8723BU, but it
most likely doesn't send C2H messages frequently enough.
This change was tested with RTL8723BU by Erhard F. I tested it with
RTL8188FU and RTL8192EU. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: hpsa: Fix possible memory leak in hpsa_init_one()
The hpda_alloc_ctlr_info() allocates h and its field reply_map. However, in
hpsa_init_one(), if alloc_percpu() failed, the hpsa_init_one() jumps to
clean1 directly, which frees h and leaks the h->reply_map.
Fix by calling hpda_free_ctlr_info() to release h->replay_map and h instead
free h directly. |

...
It is because the error handling in vidtv_bridge_dvb_init() is wrong.
First, vidtv_bridge_dmx(dev)_init() will clean themselves when fail, but
goto fail_dmx(_dev): calls release functions again, which causes
use-after-free.
Also, in fail_fe, fail_tuner_probe and fail_demod_probe, j = i will cause
out-of-bound when i finished its loop (i == NUM_FE). And the loop
releasing is wrong, although now NUM_FE is 1 so it won't cause problem.
Fix this by correctly releasing everything. |

most: usb: hdm_probe: Fix calling put_device() before device initialization
The early error path in hdm_probe() can jump to err_free_mdev before
&mdev->dev has been initialized with device_initialize(). Calling
put_device(&mdev->dev) there triggers a device core WARN and ends up
invoking kref_put(&kobj->kref, kobject_release) on an uninitialized
kobject.
In this path the private struct was only kmalloc'ed and the intended
release is effectively kfree(mdev) anyway, so free it directly instead
of calling put_device() on an uninitialized device.
This removes the WARNING and fixes the pre-initialization error path. |

vhost-vdpa: fix an iotlb memory leak
Before commit 3d5698793897 ("vhost-vdpa: introduce asid based IOTLB")
we called vhost_vdpa_iotlb_unmap(v, iotlb, 0ULL, 0ULL - 1) during
release to free all the resources allocated when processing user IOTLB
messages through vhost_vdpa_process_iotlb_update().
That commit changed the handling of IOTLB a bit, and we accidentally
removed some code called during the release.
We partially fixed this with commit 037d4305569a ("vhost-vdpa: call
vhost_vdpa_cleanup during the release") but a potential memory leak is
still there as showed by kmemleak if the application does not send
VHOST_IOTLB_INVALIDATE or crashes:

Let's fix this calling vhost_vdpa_iotlb_unmap() on the whole range in
vhost_vdpa_remove_as(). We move that call before vhost_dev_cleanup()
since we need a valid v->vdev.mm in vhost_vdpa_pa_unmap().
vhost_iotlb_reset() call can be removed, since vhost_vdpa_iotlb_unmap()
on the whole range removes all the entries.
The kmemleak log reported was observed with a vDPA device that has `use_va`
set to true (e.g. VDUSE). This patch has been tested with both types of
devices. |

In the above issue, s_usr_quota_inum is set to 5, but inode<5> contains
incorrect imode and disordered extents. Because 5 is EXT4_BOOT_LOADER_INO,
the ext4_ext_check_inode check in the ext4_iget function can be bypassed,
finally, the extents that are not checked trigger the BUG_ON in the
__es_tree_search function. To solve this issue, check whether the inode is
bad_inode in vfs_setup_quota_inode(). |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: dont report verifier bug for missing bpf_scc_visit on speculative path
Syzbot generated a program that triggers a verifier_bug() call in
maybe_exit_scc(). maybe_exit_scc() assumes that, when called for a
state with insn_idx in some SCC, there should be an instance of struct
bpf_scc_visit allocated for that SCC. Turns out the assumption does
not hold for speculative execution paths. See example in the next
patch.
maybe_scc_exit() is called from update_branch_counts() for states that
reach branch count of zero, meaning that path exploration for a
particular path is finished. Path exploration can finish in one of
three ways:
a. Verification error is found. In this case, update_branch_counts()
is called only for non-speculative paths.
b. Top level BPF_EXIT is reached. Such instructions are never a part of
an SCC, so compute_scc_callchain() in maybe_scc_exit() will return
false, and maybe_scc_exit() will return early.
c. A checkpoint is reached and matched. Checkpoints are created by
is_state_visited(), which calls maybe_enter_scc(), which allocates
bpf_scc_visit instances for checkpoints within SCCs.
Hence, for non-speculative symbolic execution paths, the assumption
still holds: if maybe_scc_exit() is called for a state within an SCC,
bpf_scc_visit instance must exist.
This patch removes the verifier_bug() call for speculative paths. |

wifi: rtl818x: rtl8187: Fix potential buffer underflow in rtl8187_rx_cb()
The rtl8187_rx_cb() calculates the rx descriptor header address
by subtracting its size from the skb tail pointer.
However, it does not validate if the received packet
(skb->len from urb->actual_length) is large enough to contain this
header.
If a truncated packet is received, this will lead to a buffer
underflow, reading memory before the start of the skb data area,
and causing a kernel panic.
Add length checks for both rtl8187 and rtl8187b descriptor headers
before attempting to access them, dropping the packet cleanly if the
check fails. |

assumption breaks when cake_enqueue() returns NET_XMIT_CN: the parent
qdisc stops enqueuing current packet, leaving the tree qlen/backlog
accounting inconsistent. This mismatch can lead to a NULL dereference
(e.g., when the parent Qdisc is qfq_qdisc).
This patch computes the qlen/backlog delta in a more robust way by
observing the difference before and after the series of cake_drop()
calls, and then compensates the qdisc tree accounting if cake_enqueue()
returns NET_XMIT_CN.
To ensure correct compensation when ACK thinning is enabled, a new
variable is introduced to keep qlen unchanged. |

configfs: fix possible memory leak in configfs_create_dir()

This is because the refcount is not correct in configfs_make_dirent().
For normal stage, the refcount is changing as:
configfs_register_subsystem()
configfs_create_dir()
configfs_make_dirent()
configfs_new_dirent() # set s_count = 1
dentry->d_fsdata = configfs_get(sd); # s_count = 2
...
configfs_unregister_subsystem()
configfs_remove_dir()
remove_dir()
configfs_remove_dirent() # s_count = 1
dput() ...
*dentry_unlink_inode()*
configfs_d_iput() # s_count = 0, release
However, if we failed in configfs_create():
configfs_register_subsystem()
configfs_create_dir()
configfs_make_dirent() # s_count = 2
...
configfs_create() # fail
->out_remove:
configfs_remove_dirent(dentry)
configfs_put(sd) # s_count = 1
return PTR_ERR(inode);
There is no inode in the error path, so the configfs_d_iput() is lost
and makes sd and fragment memory leaked.
To fix this, when we failed in configfs_create(), manually call
configfs_put(sd) to keep the refcount correct. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6/sit: use DEV_STATS_INC() to avoid data-races
syzbot/KCSAN reported that multiple cpus are updating dev->stats.tx_error
concurrently.
This is because sit tunnels are NETIF_F_LLTX, meaning their ndo_start_xmit()
is not protected by a spinlock.
While original KCSAN report was about tx path, rx path has the same issue. |
