| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/mm/pat: Allocate split page tables as kernel page tables
A PTE is allocated directly without going through the standard page table
allocation routines (such as pte_alloc_one_kernel()) when the CPA code
splits a large page (__split_large_page()).
This means the page table constructor is never called nor is the page table
marked as a kernel page table.
The former results in the folio associated with the page table not being
marked as a page table (__pagetable_ctor() is never called thus neither is
__folio_set_pgtable()) nor are statistics updated to reflect
it (lruvec_stat_add_folio() is never called).
The latter issue of failing to mark the page table as a kernel page
table (ptdesc_set_kernel() is never called) is far more problematic.
Since commit:
5ba2f0a15564 ("mm: introduce deferred freeing for kernel page tables")
kernel page table freeing has been batched and since the
subsequent commit:
e37d5a2d60a3 ("iommu/sva: invalidate stale IOTLB entries for kernel address space")
IOTLB cache entries for kernel page tables have been invalidated upon
being freed.
Since split page tables are freed without this invalidation, the IOTLB
can contain stale entries for them.
Resolve the issue by using the ordinary PTE allocation API at split time.
This results in these kernel page tables invoking a page table constructor,
and thus requires a page table destructor.
Destructors are not always present, like for early allocated direct map
page tables). Conditionally call pagetable_dtor_free() if the PG_table
folio flag for the ptdesc is set, otherwise we free the page table via
pagetable_free().
Regardless of which path is taken page tables marked as kernel page tables,
which now includes split page tables, take the correct route through
pagetable_free_kernel().
There is a user-visible side effect in that split page tables will appear
in nr_page_table_pages in /proc/vmstat (as do other kernel page tables
allocated after early boot), however this is a positive change.
This issue started being markedly problematic after commit:
5ba2f0a15564 ("mm: introduce deferred freeing for kernel page tables")
so choose this as the Fixes target.

leak instances.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
exit: hold a reference to thread_pid across proc_flush_pid
Commit 0a36bad01731 ("release_task: kill the no longer needed
get/put_pid(thread_pid)") removed the reference around proc_flush_pid().
It assumed that free_pids(post.pids) at the end of release_task() would
keep thread_pid alive until then.
That assumption is wrong. __change_pid() only records a detached PID in
post.pids when pid_has_task() is false for every PIDTYPE. If another task
still uses the exiting task's PID as its process group or session ID,
__unhash_process() removes the exiting task's PIDTYPE_PID link but leaves
the PID out of post.pids. release_task() therefore holds no reference to
it after dropping tasklist_lock.
The other task can then remove the remaining PIDTYPE links. Its
free_pids() call schedules delayed_put_pid(), and the RCU callback can free
the PID before the first release_task() reaches proc_flush_pid().
An unprivileged reproducer races wait4(-1) against setsid() to trigger this
ordering. Three of three fresh v7.2 KASAN boots reported:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in
proc_invalidate_siblings_dcache+0x3e2/0x3f0

KASAN identified a 144-byte object from the pid cache and located the bad
read 80 bytes into the freed object, matching pid->inodes. With an
explicit reference, three of three fresh boots completed without a KASAN
report. The concurrent RCU callback dropped its reference while
proc_flush_pid() was protected, and the balancing put_pid() performed the
final free afterward.
Take a reference before __unhash_process() clears p->thread_pid and release
it after proc_flush_pid() completes.
A tested source reproducer is available privately on request. No
controlled read or write, information leak, or privilege escalation is
claimed. The mainline patch applies directly to v6.19.y and newer;
v6.16.y through v6.18.y need a context-adjusted backport. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ftrace: fork: Initialize function graph state before copy_exec_state()
dup_task_struct() copies the parent's task_struct, including ret_stack.
ftrace_graph_init_task() clears the copied function graph state, but it
currently runs after copy_exec_state().
For non-CLONE_VM forks, copy_exec_state() allocates a new task_exec_state.
If that allocation fails, copy_process() reaches bad_fork_free and
free_task() calls ftrace_graph_exit_task(). Since the child still carries
the parent's ret_stack pointer, the unwind frees the parent's active
function graph return stack. The parent subsequently accesses freed memory
from function_graph_enter_regs().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mana: restore the XDP program pointer when pre-allocation fails
mana_xdp_set() publishes the new program into apc->bpf_prog before it
allocates anything, because mana_pre_alloc_rxbufs() sizes the buffers
from it via mana_get_rxbuf_cfg(). When that allocation fails the
function returns the error directly, skipping the err_dealloc_rxbuffs
label which is the only place that restores the previous pointer.
The attach is reported as failed, so the BPF core drops the reference it
held for the caller and the program can be freed, while apc->bpf_prog
still points at it. The next consumer of mana_xdp_get() - typically
mana_chn_setxdp() from mana_alloc_queues() on the following ifup, or
after a TX timeout reset - then calls bpf_prog_add() on freed memory.
This is reachable from an ordinary "ip link set dev ethX xdp obj ..."
whenever the per-queue RX buffer pre-allocation cannot be satisfied.
Restore the previous program on that error path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (corsair-cpro) Remove debugfs entries when probe fails
ccp_debugfs_init() registers debugfs files whose private data is the devm
allocated ccp. If hwmon_device_register_with_info() fails right after it,
ccp_probe() returns without removing them: the HID core then frees ccp,
and ccp_remove() is not called for a failed probe, so the files stay
behind. Reading one of them dereferences the freed pointer.
Remove the debugfs entries on that error path. debugfs_remove_recursive()
waits for readers already inside the show callbacks, so ccp is no longer
reachable through debugfs by the time probe returns. |
| NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Windows and Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer where improper cleanup of reference counts during error paths could lead to a use-after-free condition. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to code execution, denial of service, escalation of privileges, information disclosure, and data tampering. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (corsair-cpro) Create debugfs entries after hwmon registration
ccp_debugfs_init() registers debugfs files whose private data is the devm
allocated ccp. It runs before hwmon_device_register_with_info(), so when
that registration fails, ccp_probe() returns with the files still in
place. The HID core then frees ccp, and ccp_remove() is not called for a
failed probe, so nothing removes them later either. Reading one of the
files dereferences the freed pointer.
Create the debugfs entries only after the hwmon device has been
registered, so no failing path can leave them behind.
The two version queries stay where they are. They send USB commands
without holding ccp->mutex, which is only safe as long as nothing else
can call send_usb_cmd(); once the hwmon device is registered its
callbacks can do so concurrently. Only the debugfs creation moves, and
it is told which queries succeeded. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
virtio: fix use-after-free in unregister_virtio_device()
device_unregister() is device_del() plus put_device(). When the caller
holds no extra reference, that drops the last one and runs the release
callback, which for several transports frees the memory the embedded
struct virtio_device sits in. unregister_virtio_device() then calls
virtio_debug_device_exit(), which reads dev->debugfs_dir out of the freed
object.
Affected transports are the ones whose release callback frees and whose
remove path takes no reference: virtio_mmio, virtio_vdpa, virtio_uml,
mlxbf-tmfifo and virtio_ccw. virtio_pci is unaffected because
virtio_pci_remove() brackets the call with get_device() and put_device().
Remove the debugfs entries before the device can go away. They are only
accessed through the protected debugfs interface, so
debugfs_remove_recursive() waits for in-progress file operations before
returning. Tearing them down while the device is still alive is therefore
safe.
