net: ibm: emac: Fix use-after-free during device removal
The driver was using devm_register_netdev() which causes unregister_netdev()
to be deferred until the devres cleanup phase, which runs after emac_remove()
returns. This creates a use-after-free window where:
1. emac_remove() is called, which tears down hardware (cancels work, detaches
modules, unregisters from MAL)
2. emac_remove() returns
3. devres cleanup runs and finally calls unregister_netdev()
During step 3, the network stack might still process packets, triggering
emac_irq(), emac_poll(), or other handlers that access now-freed hardware
resources (dev->emacp, dev->mal, etc.).
Fix this by replacing devm_register_netdev() with manual register_netdev()
and calling unregister_netdev() at the beginning of emac_remove(), before
any hardware teardown. This ensures the network device is fully stopped and
unregistered before hardware resources are released.
The change is safe because:
- dev->ndev is assigned very early in probe (before any error paths that
could bypass emac_remove)
- platform_set_drvdata() is only called after successful registration, so
emac_remove() only runs for fully registered devices
- unregister_netdev() is idempotent and safe to call on any registered device |

f2fs: avoid reading already updated pages during GC

This case is consistent with the description in commit 9bf1a3f
("f2fs: avoid GC causing encrypted file corrupted"):
Page 1 is moved from blkaddr A to blkaddr B by move_data_block, and after
being written it is marked as uptodate. Then, Page 1 is moved from blkaddr
B to blkaddr C, VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO was triggered in the endio initiated by
ra_data_block.
There is no need to read Page 1 again from blkaddr B, since it has already
been updated. Therefore, avoid initiating I/O in this case. |

dm cache: fix dirty mapping checking in passthrough mode switching
As mentioned in commit 9b1cc9f251af ("dm cache: share cache-metadata
object across inactive and active DM tables"), dm-cache assumed table
reload occurs after suspension, while LVM's table preload breaks this
assumption. The dirty mapping check for passthrough mode was designed
around this assumption and is performed during table creation, causing
the check to fail with preload while metadata updates are ongoing. This
risks loading dirty mappings into passthrough mode, resulting in data
loss.
Reproduce steps:
1. Create a writeback cache with zero migration_threshold to produce
dirty mappings
dmsetup create cmeta --table "0 8192 linear /dev/sdc 0"
dmsetup create cdata --table "0 131072 linear /dev/sdc 8192"
dmsetup create corig --table "0 262144 linear /dev/sdc 262144"
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/cmeta bs=4k count=1 oflag=direct
dmsetup create cache --table "0 262144 cache /dev/mapper/cmeta \
/dev/mapper/cdata /dev/mapper/corig 128 2 metadata2 writeback smq \
2 migration_threshold 0"
2. Preload a table in passthrough mode
dmsetup reload cache --table "0 262144 cache /dev/mapper/cmeta \
/dev/mapper/cdata /dev/mapper/corig 128 2 metadata2 passthrough smq 0"
3. Write to the first cache block to make it dirty
fio --filename=/dev/mapper/cache --name=populate --rw=write --bs=4k \
--direct=1 --size=64k
4. Resume the inactive table. Now it's possible to load the dirty block
into passthrough mode.
dmsetup resume cache
Fix by moving the checks to the preresume phase to support table
preloading. Also remove the unused function dm_cache_metadata_all_clean. |
| Dell Display and Peripheral Manager (DDPM Mac), versions prior to 2.3, contain a Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition') vulnerability. A low privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Elevation of Privileges. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: synproxy: add mutex to guard hook reference counting
As the synproxy infrastructure register netfilter hooks on-demand when a
user adds the first iptables target or nftables expression, if done
concurrently they can race each other.
Introduce a mutex to serialize the refcount control blocks access from
both frontends. While a per namespace mutex might be more efficient, it
is not needed for target/expression like SYNPROXY. |
| Ghost is a Node.js content management system. From 6.0.9 until 6.21.1, Ghost’s private-IP check for outbound HTTP requests could be bypassed via DNS rebinding, allowing an attacker to coerce the Ghost server into reaching hosts on internal networks through features that issue external fetches. This vulnerability is fixed in 6.21.1. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mt76: mt7996: fix use-after-free bugs in mt7996_mac_dump_work()
When the mt7996 pci chip is detaching, the mt7996_crash_data is
released in mt7996_coredump_unregister(). However, the work item
dump_work may still be running or pending, leading to UAF bugs
when the already freed crash_data is dereferenced again in
mt7996_mac_dump_work().
The race condition can occur as follows:
CPU 0 (removal path) | CPU 1 (workqueue)
mt7996_pci_remove() | mt7996_sys_recovery_set()
mt7996_unregister_device() | mt7996_reset()
mt7996_coredump_unregister() | queue_work()
vfree(dev->coredump.crash_data) | mt7996_mac_dump_work()
| crash_data-> // UAF
Fix this by ensuring dump_work is properly canceled before
the crash_data is deallocated. Add cancel_work_sync() in
mt7996_unregister_device() to synchronize with any pending
or executing dump work. |
| A vulnerability was found in systemd-coredump. This flaw allows an attacker to force a SUID process to crash and replace it with a non-SUID binary to access the original's privileged process coredump, allowing the attacker to read sensitive data, such as /etc/shadow content, loaded by the original process.
A SUID binary or process has a special type of permission, which allows the process to run with the file owner's permissions, regardless of the user executing the binary. This allows the process to access more restricted data than unprivileged users or processes would be able to. An attacker can leverage this flaw by forcing a SUID process to crash and force the Linux kernel to recycle the process PID before systemd-coredump can analyze the /proc/pid/auxv file. If the attacker wins the race condition, they gain access to the original's SUID process coredump file. They can read sensitive content loaded into memory by the original binary, affecting data confidentiality. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/ap: use generic driver_override infrastructure
When the AP masks are updated via apmask_store() or aqmask_store(),
ap_bus_revise_bindings() is called after ap_attr_mutex has been
released.
This calls __ap_revise_reserved(), which accesses the driver_override
field without holding any lock, racing against a concurrent
driver_override_store() that may free the old string, resulting in a
potential UAF.
Fix this by using the driver-core driver_override infrastructure, which
protects all accesses with an internal spinlock.
Note that unlike most other buses, the AP bus does not check
driver_override in its match() callback; the override is checked in
ap_device_probe() and __ap_revise_reserved() instead.
Also note that we do not enable the driver_override feature of struct
bus_type, as AP - in contrast to most other buses - passes "" to
sysfs_emit() when the driver_override pointer is NULL. Thus, printing
"\n" instead of "(null)\n".
Additionally, AP has a custom counter that is modified in the
corresponding custom driver_override_store(). |
| A flaw was found in rsync. This vulnerability arises from a race condition during rsync's handling of symbolic links. Rsync's default behavior when encountering symbolic links is to skip them. If an attacker replaced a regular file with a symbolic link at the right time, it was possible to bypass the default behavior and traverse symbolic links. Depending on the privileges of the rsync process, an attacker could leak sensitive information, potentially leading to privilege escalation. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/cio: use generic driver_override infrastructure
When a driver is probed through __driver_attach(), the bus' match()
callback is called without the device lock held, thus accessing the
driver_override field without a lock, which can cause a UAF.
Fix this by using the driver-core driver_override infrastructure taking
care of proper locking internally.
Note that calling match() from __driver_attach() without the device lock
held is intentional. [1] |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: return VMA snapshot from task_vma iterator
Holding the per-VMA lock across the BPF program body creates a lock
ordering problem when helpers acquire locks that depend on mmap_lock:
vm_lock -> i_rwsem -> mmap_lock -> vm_lock
Snapshot the VMA under the per-VMA lock in _next() via memcpy(), then
drop the lock before returning. The BPF program accesses only the
snapshot.
The verifier only trusts vm_mm and vm_file pointers (see
BTF_TYPE_SAFE_TRUSTED_OR_NULL in verifier.c). vm_file is reference-
counted with get_file() under the lock and released via fput() on the
next iteration or in _destroy(). vm_mm is already correct because
lock_vma_under_rcu() verifies vma->vm_mm == mm. All other pointers
are left as-is by memcpy() since the verifier treats them as untrusted. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipc/shm: serialize orphan cleanup with shm_nattch updates
shm_destroy_orphaned() walks the shm idr under shm_ids(ns).rwsem, but that
does not serialize all fields tested by shm_may_destroy(). In particular,
shm_nattch is updated while holding shm_perm.lock, and attach paths can do
that without holding the rwsem.
Do not decide that an orphaned segment is unused before taking the object
lock. Move the shm_may_destroy() check under shm_perm.lock, matching the
other destroy paths, and unlock the segment when it no longer qualifies
for removal. |

futex: Prevent lockup in requeue-PI during signal/ timeout wakeup
During wait-requeue-pi (task A) and requeue-PI (task B) the following
race can happen:
Task A Task B
futex_wait_requeue_pi()
futex_setup_timer()
futex_do_wait()
futex_requeue()
CLASS(hb, hb1)(&key1);
CLASS(hb, hb2)(&key2);
*timeout*
futex_requeue_pi_wakeup_sync()
requeue_state = Q_REQUEUE_PI_IGNORE
*blocks on hb->lock*
futex_proxy_trylock_atomic()
futex_requeue_pi_prepare()
Q_REQUEUE_PI_IGNORE => -EAGAIN
double_unlock_hb(hb1, hb2)
*retry*
Task B acquires both hb locks and attempts to acquire the PI-lock of the
top most waiter (task B). Task A is leaving early due to a signal/
timeout and started removing itself from the queue. It updates its
requeue_state but can not remove it from the list because this requires
the hb lock which is owned by task B.
Usually task A is able to swoop the lock after task B unlocked it.
However if task B is of higher priority then task A may not be able to
wake up in time and acquire the lock before task B gets it again.
Especially on a UP system where A is never scheduled.
As a result task A blocks on the lock and task B busy loops, trying to
make progress but live locks the system instead. Tragic.
This can be fixed by removing the top most waiter from the list in this
case. This allows task B to grab the next top waiter (if any) in the
next iteration and make progress.
Remove the top most waiter if futex_requeue_pi_prepare() fails.
Let the waiter conditionally remove itself from the list in
handle_early_requeue_pi_wakeup(). |

Commit d93231a6bc8a ("ceph: prevent a client from exceeding the MDS
maximum xattr size") moved the required_blob_size computation to before
the __build_xattrs() call, introducing a race.
__build_xattrs() releases and reacquires i_ceph_lock during execution.
In that window, handle_cap_grant() may update i_xattrs.blob with a
newer MDS-provided blob and bump i_xattrs.version. When

btrfs: fix deadlock between reflink and transaction commit when using flushoncommit
When using the flushoncommit mount option, we can have a deadlock between
a transaction commit and a reflink operation that copied an inline extent
to an offset beyond the current i_size of the destination node.
The deadlock happens like this:
1) Task A clones an inline extent from inode X to an offset of inode Y
that is beyond Y's current i_size. This means we copied the inline
extent's data to a folio of inode Y that is beyond its EOF, using a
call to copy_inline_to_page();
2) Task B starts a transaction commit and calls
btrfs_start_delalloc_flush() to flush delalloc;
3) The delalloc flushing sees the new dirty folio of inode Y and when it
attempts to flush it, it ends up at extent_writepage() and sees that
the offset of the folio is beyond the i_size of inode Y, so it attempts
to invalidate the folio by calling folio_invalidate(), which ends up at
btrfs' folio invalidate callback - btrfs_invalidate_folio(). There it
tries to lock the folio's range in inode Y's extent io tree, but it
blocks since it's currently locked by task A - during a reflink we lock
the inodes and the source and destination ranges after flushing all
delalloc and waiting for ordered extent completion - after that we
don't expect to have dirty folios in the ranges, the exception is if
we have to copy an inline extent's data (because the destination offset
is not zero);
4) Task A then attempts to start a transaction to update the inode item,
and then it's blocked since the current transaction is in the
TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START state. Therefore task A has to wait for the
current transaction to become unblocked (its state >=
TRANS_STATE_UNBLOCKED).
So task A is waiting for the transaction commit done by task B, and
the later waiting on the extent lock of inode Y that is currently
held by task A.
