| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix refcount leak in nfsd_set_fh_dentry()
nfsd exports a "pseudo root filesystem" which is used by NFSv4 to find
the various exported filesystems using LOOKUP requests from a known root
filehandle. NFSv3 uses the MOUNT protocol to find those exported
filesystems and so is not given access to the pseudo root filesystem.
If a v3 (or v2) client uses a filehandle from that filesystem,
nfsd_set_fh_dentry() will report an error, but still stores the export
in "struct svc_fh" even though it also drops the reference (exp_put()).
This means that when fh_put() is called an extra reference will be dropped
which can lead to use-after-free and possible denial of service.
Normal NFS usage will not provide a pseudo-root filehandle to a v3
client. This bug can only be triggered by the client synthesising an
incorrect filehandle.
To fix this we move the assignments to the svc_fh later, after all
possible error cases have been detected. |

cifs: fix session state check in reconnect to avoid use-after-free issue
Don't collect exiting session in smb2_reconnect_server(), because it
will be released soon.
Note that the exiting session will stay in server->smb_ses_list until
it complete the cifs_free_ipc() and logoff() and then delete itself

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs: quota: create dedicated workqueue for quota_release_work
There is a kernel panic due to WARN_ONCE when panic_on_warn is set.
This issue occurs when writeback is triggered due to sync call for an
opened file(ie, writeback reason is WB_REASON_SYNC). When f2fs balance
is needed at sync path, flush for quota_release_work is triggered.
By default quota_release_work is queued to "events_unbound" queue which
does not have WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag. During f2fs balance "writeback"
workqueue tries to flush quota_release_work causing kernel panic due to
MEM_RECLAIM flag mismatch errors.
This patch creates dedicated workqueue with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag
for work quota_release_work.

Squashfs: reject negative file sizes in squashfs_read_inode()
Syskaller reports a "WARNING in ovl_copy_up_file" in overlayfs.
This warning is ultimately caused because the underlying Squashfs file
system returns a file with a negative file size.
This commit checks for a negative file size and returns EINVAL.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipmi: Rework user message limit handling
The limit on the number of user messages had a number of issues,
improper counting in some cases and a use after free.
Restructure how this is all done to handle more in the receive message
allocation routine, so all refcouting and user message limit counts
are done in that routine. It's a lot cleaner and safer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Revert "ipmi: fix msg stack when IPMI is disconnected"
This reverts commit c608966f3f9c2dca596967501d00753282b395fc.
This patch has a subtle bug that can cause the IPMI driver to go into an
infinite loop if the BMC misbehaves in a certain way. Apparently
certain BMCs do misbehave this way because several reports have come in
recently about this. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: mte: Do not warn if the page is already tagged in copy_highpage()
The arm64 copy_highpage() assumes that the destination page is newly
allocated and not MTE-tagged (PG_mte_tagged unset) and warns
accordingly. However, following commit 060913999d7a ("mm: migrate:
support poisoned recover from migrate folio"), folio_mc_copy() is called
before __folio_migrate_mapping(). If the latter fails (-EAGAIN), the
copy will be done again to the same destination page. Since
copy_highpage() already set the PG_mte_tagged flag, this second copy
will warn.
Replace the WARN_ON_ONCE(page already tagged) in the arm64
copy_highpage() with a comment. |

The function lan78xx_read_raw_eeprom failed to properly propagate EEPROM
read timeout errors (-ETIMEDOUT). In the fallthrough path, it first
attempted to restore the pin configuration for LED outputs and then
returned only the status of that restore operation, discarding the
original timeout error.
As a result, callers could mistakenly treat the data buffer as valid
even though the EEPROM read had actually timed out with no data or partial
data.
To fix this, handle errors in restoring the LED pin configuration separately.
If the restore succeeds, return any prior EEPROM timeout error correctly
to the caller. |

net/mlx5e: RX, Fix generating skb from non-linear xdp_buff for striding RQ
XDP programs can change the layout of an xdp_buff through
bpf_xdp_adjust_tail() and bpf_xdp_adjust_head(). Therefore, the driver
cannot assume the size of the linear data area nor fragments. Fix the
bug in mlx5 by generating skb according to xdp_buff after XDP programs
run.
Currently, when handling multi-buf XDP, the mlx5 driver assumes the
layout of an xdp_buff to be unchanged. That is, the linear data area
continues to be empty and fragments remain the same. This may cause
the driver to generate erroneous skb or triggering a kernel
warning. When an XDP program added linear data through
bpf_xdp_adjust_head(), the linear data will be ignored as
mlx5e_build_linear_skb() builds an skb without linear data and then
pull data from fragments to fill the linear data area. When an XDP
program has shrunk the non-linear data through bpf_xdp_adjust_tail(),
the delta passed to __pskb_pull_tail() may exceed the actual nonlinear
data size and trigger the BUG_ON in it.
To fix the issue, first record the original number of fragments. If the
number of fragments changes after the XDP program runs, rewind the end
fragment pointer by the difference and recalculate the truesize. Then,
build the skb with the linear data area matching the xdp_buff. Finally,
only pull data in if there is non-linear data and fill the linear part
up to 256 bytes. |

When calling hfsplus_bmap_alloc to allocate a free node, this function
first retrieves the bitmap from header node and map node using node->page
together with the offset and length from hfs_brec_lenoff
```
len = hfs_brec_lenoff(node, 2, &off16);
off = off16;
off += node->page_offset;
pagep = node->page + (off >> PAGE_SHIFT);
data = kmap_local_page(*pagep);
```
However, if the retrieved offset or length is invalid(i.e. exceeds
node_size), the code may end up accessing pages outside the allocated
range for this node.
This patch adds proper validation of both offset and length before use,
preventing out-of-bounds page access. Move is_bnode_offset_valid and
check_and_correct_requested_length to hfsplus_fs.h, as they may be
required by other functions. |

net: enetc: fix the deadlock of enetc_mdio_lock
After applying the workaround for err050089, the LS1028A platform
experiences RCU stalls on RT kernel. This issue is caused by the
recursive acquisition of the read lock enetc_mdio_lock. Here list some
of the call stacks identified under the enetc_poll path that may lead to
a deadlock:
enetc_poll
-> enetc_lock_mdio
-> enetc_clean_rx_ring OR napi_complete_done
-> napi_gro_receive
-> enetc_start_xmit
-> enetc_lock_mdio
-> enetc_map_tx_buffs
-> enetc_unlock_mdio
-> enetc_unlock_mdio
After enetc_poll acquires the read lock, a higher-priority writer attempts
to acquire the lock, causing preemption. The writer detects that a
read lock is already held and is scheduled out. However, readers under
enetc_poll cannot acquire the read lock again because a writer is already
waiting, leading to a thread hang.
Currently, the deadlock is avoided by adjusting enetc_lock_mdio to prevent
recursive lock acquisition. |

arch_topology: Fix incorrect error check in topology_parse_cpu_capacity()
Fix incorrect use of PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO() in topology_parse_cpu_capacity()
which causes the code to proceed with NULL clock pointers. The current
logic uses !PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(cpu_clk) which evaluates to true for both
valid pointers and NULL, leading to potential NULL pointer dereference
in clk_get_rate().
Per include/linux/err.h documentation, PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(ptr) returns:
"The error code within @ptr if it is an error pointer; 0 otherwise."
This means PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO() returns 0 for both valid pointers AND NULL
pointers. Therefore !PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(cpu_clk) evaluates to true (proceed)
when cpu_clk is either valid or NULL, causing clk_get_rate(NULL) to be
called when of_clk_get() returns NULL.
Replace with !IS_ERR_OR_NULL(cpu_clk) which only proceeds for valid
pointers, preventing potential NULL pointer dereference in clk_get_rate(). |

sunrpc: fix null pointer dereference on zero-length checksum
In xdr_stream_decode_opaque_auth(), zero-length checksum.len causes
checksum.data to be set to NULL. This triggers a NPD when accessing
checksum.data in gss_krb5_verify_mic_v2(). This patch ensures that
the value of checksum.len is not less than XDR_UNIT. |

fs: ntfs3: Fix integer overflow in run_unpack()
The MFT record relative to the file being opened contains its runlist,
an array containing information about the file's location on the physical
disk. Analysis of all Call Stack paths showed that the values of the
runlist array, from which LCNs are calculated, are not validated before
run_unpack function.
The run_unpack function decodes the compressed runlist data format
from MFT attributes (for example, $DATA), converting them into a runs_tree
structure, which describes the mapping of virtual clusters (VCN) to
logical clusters (LCN). The NTFS3 subsystem also has a shortcut for
deleting files from MFT records - in this case, the RUN_DEALLOCATE
command is sent to the run_unpack input, and the function logic
provides that all data transferred to the runlist about file or
directory is deleted without creating a runs_tree structure.
Substituting the runlist in the $DATA attribute of the MFT record for an
arbitrary file can lead either to access to arbitrary data on the disk
bypassing access checks to them (since the inode access check
occurs above) or to destruction of arbitrary data on the disk.
Add overflow check for addition operation.

coresight: trbe: Return NULL pointer for allocation failures
When the TRBE driver fails to allocate a buffer, it currently returns
the error code "-ENOMEM". However, the caller etm_setup_aux() only
checks for a NULL pointer, so it misses the error. As a result, the
driver continues and eventually causes a kernel panic.
Fix this by returning a NULL pointer from arm_trbe_alloc_buffer() on
allocation failures. This allows that the callers can properly handle
the failure. |
