fs/resctrl: Prevent use-after-free in rdtgroup_kn_put()
A struct rdtgroup is reference counted via rdtgroup::waitcount. Callers that
need the structure to remain valid across a sleep (while waiting on acquiring
rdtgroup_mutex) take a reference with rdtgroup_kn_get() and release it with
rdtgroup_kn_put().
The release path is intended to serve as the fallback freer: if the count
drops to zero and the group has already been marked RDT_DELETED,
rdtgroup_kn_put() frees the structure.
The bulk teardown paths free_all_child_rdtgrp() and rmdir_all_sub() resulting
from a resctrl directory remove or resctrl fs unmount act as the primary
freer: they hold rdtgroup_mutex and free each rdtgroup whose waitcount is
zero, otherwise they set RDT_DELETED and leave the freeing to the last waiter.
These two freers race. rdtgroup_kn_put() commits waitcount == 0 with
atomic_dec_and_test() outside rdtgroup_mutex, then reads rdtgroup::flags.
Between those two operations a concurrent caller of free_all_child_rdtgrp()
or rmdir_all_sub() (which holds the mutex) can observe waitcount == 0 via
atomic_read(), call rdtgroup_remove(), and kfree() the structure.
The subsequent read of rdtgroup::flags in rdtgroup_kn_put() is then
a use-after-free, and the structure may even be freed twice if the freed
memory happens to satisfy the RDT_DELETED flag check.
Replace the bare atomic_dec_and_test() with atomic_dec_and_mutex_lock() so
that the decrement-to-zero takes rdtgroup_mutex before the count becomes
globally visible. The inspection of rdtgroup::flags then runs under the same
mutex held by the bulk freers, making the two paths mutually exclusive.
The common case where the count does not reach zero remains lock-free. Defer
kernfs_unbreak_active_protection() until after the mutex is dropped since
kernfs active protections functionally wrap rdtgroup_mutex. Remove resource
group, which in turn drops its kernfs reference, after kernfs protection is
restored.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/resctrl: Fix UAF from worker threads when domains are removed
The mbm_handle_overflow() and cqm_handle_limbo() workers read event counters
and may sleep while doing so. They are scheduled via delayed_work embedded in
struct rdt_l3_mon_domain. Architecture allocates and frees these domains from
CPU hotplug callbacks under cpus_write_lock(), and the workers acquire
cpus_read_lock() to keep the domain alive across their access.
A use-after-free can occur when a worker is blocked waiting for
cpus_read_lock() while the hotplug core holds cpus_write_lock(): the
architecture frees the rdt_l3_mon_domain that contains the worker's
work_struct. When the worker unblocks, the container_of() it performs on the
embedded work pointer dereferences freed memory.
Drop cpus_read_lock() from the workers and instead drain pending and in-flight
work synchronously before the architecture can free the domain. Since
architecture offlines the domain under cpus_write_lock() after it has been
unlinked from the RCU list and a grace period has elapsed, no new work can be
scheduled. The cancel only needs to wait out existing work. Drop
rdtgroup_mutex during CPU offline around cancel_delayed_work_sync() so that
a worker waiting on the mutex can complete before re-pinning the work on
a different CPU.
When offlining a CPU the architecture may iterate over resources in any order.
For example, the MBA control domain may be offlined before or after
a corresponding L3 monitor domain. Ensure that resctrl fs cancels the workers
no matter what order the architecture offlines the domains. |

rpmsg: glink: fix deadlock in endpoint destroy during driver detach
During driver detach, the device core holds the device mutex throughout
the driver's remove callback chain. When the rpmsg endpoint is
destroyed as part of that teardown, the GLINK endpoint destroy
implementation attempts to unregister the underlying rpmsg device.
That unregistration calls device_del(), which tries to re-acquire the
same device mutex already held higher up the stack, causing rmmod to
hang indefinitely.
The deadlock manifests with the following call chain:
[<0>] device_del+0x44/0x414 <- tries to acquire same mutex
[<0>] device_unregister+0x18/0x34
[<0>] rpmsg_unregister_device+0x28/0x4c
[<0>] qcom_glink_remove_rpmsg_device+0x70/0xc0
[<0>] qcom_glink_destroy_ept+0x58/0xbc
[<0>] rpmsg_dev_remove+0x50/0x60
[<0>] device_remove+0x4c/0x80
[<0>] device_release_driver_internal+0x1cc/0x228 <- acquires device mutex
[<0>] driver_detach+0x4c/0x98
[<0>] bus_remove_driver+0x6c/0xbc
[<0>] driver_unregister+0x30/0x60
[<0>] unregister_rpmsg_driver+0x10/0x1c
[<0>] fastrpc_exit+0x28/0x38 [fastrpc]
[<0>] __arm64_sys_delete_module+0x1b8/0x294
[<0>] invoke_syscall+0x48/0x10c
[<0>] el0_svc_common.constprop.0+0xc0/0xe0
[<0>] do_el0_svc+0x1c/0x28

[<0>] el0t_64_sync_handler+0xa0/0xe4
[<0>] el0t_64_sync+0x198/0x19c
The rpmsg device unregistration inside endpoint destroy is redundant.
In both contexts where endpoint destruction is triggered:
- Driver detach path: the driver core already tears down the rpmsg
device.
- Channel close path: the rpmsg device is already unregistered before
endpoint destruction is reached.
Remove the redundant unregistration to fix the deadlock. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cxl/mbox: Break poison list loop on an empty payload
A device that returns count == 0 with CXL_POISON_FLAG_MORE set on every
iteration never advances nr_records, so the max_errors guard never
trips and the do/while loops forever while holding poison.mutex. That
hangs the sysfs-triggered scan thread and blocks all subsequent poison
operations on the device. The existing "Protect against an uncleared
_FLAG_MORE" guard was intended to bound a misbehaving device but does
not cover the count == 0 case.
Stop the loop on an empty payload so a malfunctioning or malicious
device cannot wedge the poison scan. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cxl/features: Serialize multi-part Get/Set Feature transfers
A Get or Set Feature payload larger than the mailbox payload size is
split into several mailbox commands. mbox_mutex only serializes
individual mailbox commands and is dropped between iterations of these
loops. Nothing serializes the multi-part transfer as a whole.
cxl_get_feature() and cxl_set_feature() are reachable concurrently
from fwctl (per-fd RPCs run under a read-held registration lock) and
from the EDAC scrub/ECS/repair paths, so two transfers to the same
mailbox can interleave their parts and corrupt the device's transfer
context.
Add a per-mailbox feat_mutex and hold it across the whole transfer in
both functions. It nests outside mbox_mutex (which is taken inside
cxl_internal_send_cmd()), and is taken nowhere else, so no lock-ordering
inversion is introduced. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hfsplus: validate thread record before delete key rebuild
hfsplus_delete_cat() is called with str == NULL when the last open
reference to an unlinked HFS+ hardlink backing inode is closed. In that
case, the function finds the catalog thread by CNID and rebuilds the
catalog key from thread.nodeName.
That reconstruction path reads thread.nodeName.length directly from the
catalog B-tree into fd.search_key and then copies length * 2 bytes into
fd.search_key->cat.name.unicode. It does not first check that the found
record is a thread record or that its size matches the thread name.
A corrupted image can therefore provide an oversized thread name length
and make hfs_bnode_read() write past the catalog search-key allocation.
Read the CNID record through hfsplus_brec_read_cat(), which bounds the
record read to sizeof(hfsplus_cat_entry) and verifies that a thread
record's size exactly matches nodeName.length. Together, these checks
ensure an accepted thread name fits HFSPLUS_MAX_STRLEN. Reject non-thread
records before building the delete key from the validated thread name.
Share the thread-record-type helper between hfsplus_find_cat() and
hfsplus_delete_cat(). |

wifi: ath12k: fix dp_link_peer dangling references on AP vdev rollback
ath12k_mac_vdev_create() for an AP vdev creates the bss self-peer via
ath12k_peer_create(), which finishes by calling
ath12k_dp_link_peer_assign() to publish the dp_link_peer in the
dp_hw->dp_peers[peerid_index] RCU table, in the dp_peer's
link_peers[] array, and in the per-addr rhashtable.
If a step after ath12k_peer_create() fails the function jumps to
err_peer_del, which open-codes a WMI peer_delete and waits for the
unmap / delete_resp events. The wait_for_peer_delete_done() path
relies on ath12k_dp_link_peer_unmap_event() freeing the dp_link_peer
when the unmap arrives, but err_peer_del never calls
ath12k_dp_link_peer_unassign() first. The published references in
the dp_hw RCU table, dp_peer->link_peers[] and the rhashtable are
left pointing at the dp_link_peer that unmap_event then frees,
producing dangling pointers and use-after-free on subsequent
lookups.
Replace the open-coded sequence with a call to ath12k_peer_delete(),
which already does ath12k_dp_link_peer_unassign() before sending the
WMI command. This drops the published references before the
dp_link_peer is freed, in the same order as the normal teardown path
in ath12k_mac_remove_link_interface().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Publish channel state before callbacks
Transport setup can enable callbacks before the setup routine returns.
mailbox_chan_setup() registers the mailbox client with
mbox_request_channel(), and the mailbox controller startup path can enable
interrupt delivery before SCMI mailbox channel state has been published.
Similarly, smc_chan_setup() requests the optional A2P completion IRQ before
the SMC transport has made its cinfo pointer visible.
If a pending or spurious callback fires in those windows, the transport RX
callback can dereference a NULL transport cinfo pointer. Publishing only
the transport-private pointer is not sufficient either: an early callback
can enter the SCMI core before scmi_chan_setup() has assigned
cinfo->handle.
The core derives scmi_info from cinfo->handle in the RX path, so a NULL
handle can still fault even when the transport-private cinfo is valid.
Assign cinfo->handle before invoking the transport setup callback. Publish
the mailbox and SMC transport-private channel state before requesting the
mailbox channels or IRQ, and clear the early-published pointers again on
setup failure. Also unwind mailbox setup devres resources on failure so an
optional RX setup error that is ignored by the core does not leave stale
transport state behind. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Unregister device notifier before IDR teardown
The requested-devices notifier looks up protocol fwnodes from the
active_protocols IDR. During remove, unregister the notifier before
releasing and destroying active_protocols so no notifier callback can race
with the IDR teardown.
Keep the bus notifier registered until after the protocol state is torn
down, matching the existing remove ordering for SCMI bus users. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Quiesce notifications before teardown
scmi_notification_exit() clears and releases the notification instance,
but transport callbacks can still deliver incoming notifications until
the TX/RX channels are freed. During remove, an RX interrupt in that
window can enter scmi_notify() while notification state is being torn
down and then dereference freed memory. The same ordering exists on the
probe error path after notification initialization.
The notification late-init worker has a separate lifetime issue: protocol
event registration queues ni->init_work on the system workqueue, so
destroying ni->notify_wq does not drain that work. If the devres group is
released while init_work is still pending or running, the late-init worker
can dereference the freed notification instance.
Quiesce the notification core before TX/RX channels are torn down, then
clean up the channels before releasing the notification core resources.
Use disable_work_sync() so future late-init queueing is rejected and any
already queued or running late-init work has completed before channel
teardown starts. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Clean up channels on setup failure
scmi_channels_setup() can fail after the common BASE channel or earlier
protocol channels have already been registered in the TX/RX IDRs.
Route this failure through the existing channel cleanup label so the
transport channels, transport devices and IDR state created before the
failure are released before the probe error path frees the SCMI instance
ID. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Free transport channel on IDR failure
If transport channel setup succeeds but the following IDR insertion fails,
the error path destroys the transport device and frees the channel info
without invoking the transport cleanup callback.
Call chan_free() before destroying the device so transport specific
resources such as IRQs, mailbox channels and mapped shared memory are
released consistently with the normal teardown path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Avoid IDR updates while cleaning channels
scmi_cleanup_channels() walks the TX/RX channel IDRs with
idr_for_each() to free transport resources and destroy the dedicated
transport devices before calling idr_destroy().
The destroy callback removed each entry from the same IDR being walked.
That is not needed for this cleanup path, and it is unsafe because
idr_for_each() has not advanced its radix-tree iterator while the
callback is running. Removing the current entry from the callback can
invalidate the iterator state. The callback also cannot be protected by
rcu_read_lock(), because scmi_device_destroy() may sleep.
Leave IDR teardown to the following idr_destroy() call and keep the
callback limited to device destruction. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Reject out of range DT protocol IDs
SCMI protocol IDs carried in message headers are limited by
MSG_PROTOCOL_ID_MASK. The DT parsing paths noticed protocol IDs
outside that range, but only logged an error and then kept processing
the invalid value.
That lets a malformed 32-bit DT reg value reach helpers which take a u8
protocol ID, where it can be truncated and/or treated as a different
protocol.
For channel setup, two different out-of-range values can also be used as
distinct IDR keys while aliasing the generated SCMI protocol identity.
Skip DT protocol nodes whose reg value does not fit the SCMI protocol ID
field before setting up channels or creating protocol devices. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Drop handle on protocol bind failures
The SCMI bus notifier acquires an SCMI handle when the driver core emits
BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER, before invoking the protocol driver probe
callback. The protocol probe path only checks whether sdev->handle is
set.
If device_link_add() fails after the handle has been acquired, the
protocol device can still bind with a valid handle but without the
dependency link to the SCMI parent. A concurrent parent unbind can then
miss the child and tear down the SCMI instance while the child still
holds a handle into it.
If the protocol driver probe later fails, for example with
-EPROBE_DEFER, the driver core emits BUS_NOTIFY_DRIVER_NOT_BOUND rather
than BUS_NOTIFY_UNBOUND_DRIVER. The SCMI notifier only released the
handle on BUS_NOTIFY_UNBOUND_DRIVER, so each failed protocol-device bind
leaked the SCMI instance users refcount and left sdev->handle set after
the failed probe.
Make the link helper report failure and drop the acquired handle if the
link cannot be created. Also handle BUS_NOTIFY_DRIVER_NOT_BOUND in the
same cleanup path used for unbind so failed probes balance the earlier
BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER acquisition. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Unwind TX receiver mailbox setup failure
mailbox_chan_setup() can request an additional unidirectional TX
receiver channel after successfully acquiring the primary channel. If
that second request fails, the function returns immediately and leaves
the primary channel allocated.
Unwind the primary mailbox channel before returning the error so probe
deferral or other setup failures do not leave the channel busy for later
probe attempts. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Unwind P2A receiver mailbox setup failure
mailbox_chan_setup() can request an additional P2A receiver channel after
successfully acquiring the primary P2A channel. If that later request
fails, the function returns immediately and leaves the primary channel
allocated.
Unwind the primary mailbox channel before returning the error so probe
deferral or other setup failures do not leave the channel busy for later
probe attempts. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Fix SCMI device destroy lifetimes
scmi_child_dev_find() drops the reference returned by
device_find_child() before returning the scmi_device pointer. A
concurrent unregister can then release the device while the destroy path
is still using the returned pointer.
Make the lookup helper return the device_find_child() reference and keep
it until scmi_device_destroy() has finished unregistering the child.
Also split device_unregister() in __scmi_device_destroy() so the SCMI bus
ID is not made reusable until after device_del() has removed the old
scmi_dev.N name from sysfs. This avoids a new SCMI device reusing the
same ID while the old device is still registered.
The final device release callback is also a possible cleanup path when
SCMI children are deleted by driver core recursion rather than
__scmi_device_destroy(). Release the SCMI bus ID from a common helper
used by destroy, register-failure and final-release paths, and clear
scmi_dev->id after freeing it so the final release cannot free the same
ID again. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Fix transport device teardown lookup
SCMI transport devices are deliberately excluded from normal SCMI bus
matching so protocol drivers cannot bind to the internal transport
children. However, scmi_device_destroy() uses the same protocol/name
lookup to find devices that must be unregistered during channel teardown.
Split the match helper so driver matching still skips transport devices,
while explicit child lookup can find them for teardown. Use a shared
transport-device name prefix macro for both matching and name generation.
Since transport-device names are derived from direction and protocol ID,
reject duplicate protocol channel setup before creating or finding a
transport device. This prevents malformed firmware with duplicate
protocol child nodes from reusing an existing transport device and then
destroying it when the duplicate IDR insertion fails. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cxl/features: Reject Get Feature count larger than the output buffer
cxlctl_get_feature() sizes its output buffer from the user's
fwctl_rpc.out_len, but the device is told to write
cxl_mbox_get_feat_in.count bytes into rpc_out->payload, which is a
separate user-controlled value. Nothing bounds count against out_len, so
a small out_len with a large count overflows the kvzalloc()'d buffer.
A heap OOB write reachable from FWCTL_RPC.
Reject requests where count exceeds the available payload room, before
allocating. |
