nfsd: RCU-protect cl_cb_session to fix use-after-free on session teardown
After a DESTROY_SESSION the per-session teardown path can free a
session while rpciod still holds an inflight callback rpc_task that
dereferences clp->cl_cb_session. nfsd4_probe_callback_sync() flushes
cl_callback_wq, but once nfsd4_run_cb_work() has called
rpc_call_async() the rpc_task lives on rpciod; flushing the workqueue
does not wait for it. rpc_shutdown_client() does drain rpciod tasks,
but uses a 1-second wait_event_timeout — tasks stuck in rpc_delay()
(e.g. 2-second NFS4ERR_DELAY retries) can outlive the drain.
destroy path rpciod
------------ ------
unhash_session(ses)
nfsd4_probe_callback_sync(clp)
flush_workqueue(cl_callback_wq)
/* returns; rpc_task still live */
nfsd4_put_session_locked(ses)
free_session(ses) -> kfree(ses)
nfsd4_cb_sequence_done()
reads cb_clp->cl_cb_session
/* freed slab */
A second window exists in nfsd4_process_cb_update(). When
__nfsd4_find_backchannel() returns NULL because unhash_session() has
already removed the destroyed session from cl_sessions,
setup_callback_client() takes the v4.1 early return so
clp->cl_cb_session = ses never fires and the field retains a pointer
to the about-to-be-freed session.
Fix both by converting cl_cb_session to an RCU-protected pointer:
- Move the cl_cb_session = ses assignment in setup_callback_client()
to after rpc_create() succeeds, so it is only published when a
working backchannel exists. Clear cl_cb_session on the error
return in nfsd4_process_cb_update(). Both stores use
rcu_assign_pointer().
- Annotate cl_cb_session with __rcu. All rpciod-side readers use
rcu_read_lock()/rcu_dereference() and check for NULL, bailing to
the appropriate error or requeue path:
encode_cb_sequence4args(), decode_cb_sequence4resok(),
nfsd41_cb_get_slot(), nfsd41_cb_release_slot(),
nfsd4_cb_prepare(), and nfsd4_cb_sequence_done().
- Switch __free_session() from kfree() to kfree_rcu() so the
session slab is not reclaimed until after an RCU grace period,
guaranteeing that rpciod readers inside rcu_read_lock() never
dereference freed memory.
- Pass the session pointer to the nfsd_cb_seq_status and
nfsd_cb_free_slot tracepoints instead of having them re-read
cl_cb_session.
- nfsd4_cb_prepare() calls rpc_exit() when the session is NULL,
routing through the done/release path to requeue the callback. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: validate sockaddr length per family in listener_set
nfsd_sock_nl_policy declares NFSD_A_SOCK_ADDR as a bare NLA_BINARY
attribute with no minimum length. A CAP_NET_ADMIN caller can send a
16-byte NFSD_A_SOCK_ADDR with sa_family=AF_INET6, causing a 12-byte
OOB read across three consumers (rpc_cmp_addr_port, svc_find_listener,
kernel_bind).
nfsd_nl_listener_set_doit() also parsed and validated each listener
entry inline in two separate loops, interleaved with mutating the
running listener configuration. The validation was duplicated, used an
open-coded "nla_len < sizeof(struct sockaddr)" check that was too short
for AF_INET6, and handled a malformed entry inconsistently depending on
which loop noticed it.
Add an nfsd_nl_validate_listeners() helper that walks the entire list
once and confirms each entry parses, carries both an address and a
transport name, and is long enough for its address family
(sizeof(struct sockaddr_in) for AF_INET, sizeof(struct sockaddr_in6)
for AF_INET6, -EAFNOSUPPORT otherwise). Call it before taking
nfsd_mutex or creating the serv, so a malformed request fails cleanly
with no side effects.
Since every entry is known valid by the time the two existing loops
run, drop the redundant presence and per-family length checks from
both, leaving only the nla_parse_nested() call needed to extract the
data. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: widen nfsd_genl_rqstp address fields to sockaddr_storage
struct nfsd_genl_rqstp declares rq_daddr and rq_saddr as plain
"struct sockaddr" (16 bytes). When an IPv6 NFS client is connected,
nfsd_genl_rpc_status_compose_msg() casts these fields to
"struct sockaddr_in6 *" (28 bytes) and reads sin6_addr at offset 8..24,
which extends 8 bytes past the end of the 16-byte sockaddr field into
the adjacent rq_flags member. The 16-byte nla_put_in6_addr then ships 8
bytes of truncated IPv6 address followed by 8 bytes of rq_flags to
userspace via the NFSD_A_RPC_STATUS_SADDR6/DADDR6 netlink attributes.
This is reachable by any unprivileged process in the network namespace
because NFSD_CMD_RPC_STATUS_GET uses GENL_CMD_CAP_DUMP without
GENL_ADMIN_PERM.
Fix by widening rq_daddr and rq_saddr to struct sockaddr_storage so the
IPv6 casts operate within bounds, copying sizeof(struct sockaddr_storage)
bytes in the memcpy calls so the full address is captured, and
zero-initializing the genl_rqstp stack variable to prevent leaking
uninitialized tail bytes through netlink. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: check nfsd4_acl_to_attr() return value in nfsd4_create()
nfsd4_create() stores the return value of nfsd4_acl_to_attr() in
status, but the switch(create->cr_type) block unconditionally
overwrites it in every branch. ACL translation errors are silently
discarded, and the CREATE proceeds without the requested ACL.
Add an early exit check after nfsd4_acl_to_attr(), matching the
pattern already used in nfsd4_setattr().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix clock domain mismatch in clients_still_reclaiming()
clients_still_reclaiming() computes a deadline from nn->boot_time
(CLOCK_REALTIME, ~1.7 billion) but compares it against
ktime_get_boottime_seconds() (CLOCK_BOOTTIME, seconds since boot).
The comparison is always false — it would take ~54 years of uptime
for BOOTTIME to exceed the REALTIME-derived deadline.
This means any client can hold the server in grace indefinitely by
sending CLAIM_PREVIOUS OPEN requests, blocking all non-reclaim
operations for all other clients.
Add boot_time_bt (CLOCK_BOOTTIME) alongside the existing boot_time
and use it for the deadline computation. boot_time (CLOCK_REALTIME)
is preserved for its cl_boot clientid-nonce role. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix stale s2s_cp_stateids IDR entry for async COPY
For an async COPY, nfsd4_copy() called nfs4_init_copy_state() before
dup_copy_fields(), so the s2s_cp_stateids IDR was pointed at
&u->copy->cp_stateid -- memory in the per-rqstp COMPOUND buffer that is
reused by the next request. dup_copy_fields() copies only the value into
async_copy, so the IDR slot dangled at the transient buffer for the whole
background copy. Any IDR walker then dereferences reused request memory:
the laundromat reads cs_type from it and, if the bytes look like an
expired NFS4_COPYNOTIFY_STID, follows into
refcount_dec()/idr_remove()/kfree() on garbage; manage_cpntf_state() has
the same exposure via idr_find().
Duplicate the fields first, then register the stateid on the stable
async_copy. result->cb_stateid is unchanged. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: close shrinker/GC/fsnotify vs per-net shutdown race in filecache
The shrinker, GC worker, and fsnotify/lease callbacks can unhash an
nfsd_file from the rhashtable and then call
nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed() to move it to the per-net dispose list.
If nfsd_file_cache_shutdown_net() runs concurrently, its rhashtable walk
misses the already-unhashed file, and its drain of the per-net dispose
list can run before the file has been queued. The file then sits on
the per-net list with no thread to drain it, leaking both the file and
its associated state.
The GC worker and shrinker already hold nfsd_gc_lock while walking the
LRU, but in the original code they release it before calling
nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed(). The fsnotify/lease path
(nfsd_file_close_inode) has no synchronization at all.
Fix this by:
1. Widening nfsd_gc_lock in both nfsd_file_gc() and nfsd_file_lru_scan()
to cover the nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed() call.
2. Wrapping nfsd_file_close_inode() in nfsd_gc_lock so that all three
callers of nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed() hold the lock.
3. Adding a spin_lock/unlock(nfsd_gc_lock) barrier in
nfsd_file_cache_shutdown_net() after the purge, so that any
in-progress disposal has fully completed before the per-net list
is drained.
All operations inside the lock are non-sleeping (rhashtable lookups,
atomic bit/refcount ops, list moves, svc_wake_up), so the spinlock is
appropriate. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: Prevent client use-after-free during admin state revocation
A stateid holds only a bare pointer to its nfs4_client; a stateid
reference does not pin it. The client survives only because
__destroy_client() drains its stateids before free_client() runs.
nfsd4_revoke_states() drops nn->client_lock across revoke_one_stid(),
which dereferences the client to revoke a stateid and read
clp->cl_minorversion. A teardown racing the dropped lock can free
the client first.
Pinning cl_rpc_users under client_lock blocks the DESTROY_CLIENTID and
EXCHANGE_ID teardown, which refuses while cl_rpc_users is non-zero.
force_expire_client() ignores it: once its wait for cl_rpc_users to
reach zero has passed, a later pin goes unnoticed.
Under client_lock, skip a client whose cl_time is already zero --
force_expire_client() clears it there before waiting -- otherwise pin
cl_rpc_users before dropping the lock. The walk then either sees the
expiry and skips, or pins in time for that wait to cover the revoke. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: Prevent client use-after-free during delegation revoke
A delegation stateid holds only a bare pointer to its owning
nfs4_client and does not keep it alive. The client survives its
stateids only because __destroy_client() drains cl_delegations and
cl_revoked before free_client() runs.
nfs4_laundromat() breaks that invariant: it unhashes an
expired delegation from cl_delegations, drops deleg_lock, then
revoke_delegation() relinks it onto cl_revoked under cl_lock. In that
window the delegation is on neither list, so client_has_state() can
report no remaining state.
Every teardown path first requires cl_rpc_users to be zero, but
the laundromat holds no such reference. A client whose recalled
delegation has just timed out can therefore reach free_client()
while revoke_delegation() is still about to dereference cl_lock,
a use-after-free.
Pin the client with cl_rpc_users across the revoke so teardown blocks
until it completes, then reap the delegation from cl_revoked. A client
already expiring reaps its own, so skip it and leave the delegation on
del_recall_lru. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix extent map leak in NOCOW direct I/O write
btrfs_dio_iomap_begin() calls btrfs_get_extent(), which returns an
extent map reference that must be dropped on all exit paths.
For direct writes into a NOCOW range, btrfs_get_blocks_direct_write()
keeps using that extent map and asks btrfs_create_dio_extent() to
allocate the ordered extent. If that fails, for example because
btrfs_alloc_ordered_extent() fails, the function returns the error
without dropping the input extent map. The PREALLOC path avoided this by
dropping the input extent map before replacing it with the newly created
one.
Check the error from btrfs_create_dio_extent() before replacing the
map and drop the input extent map on failure. |

HID: sony: fix UAF of ghl_poke_timer / ghl_urb at driver unbind
For GHL (Guitar Hero Live) dongles, sony_probe() arms a periodic timer:
ghl_magic_poke() (the timer callback) submits sc->ghl_urb, and the URB
completion ghl_magic_poke_cb() re-arms the timer with mod_timer().
sony_remove() drained the timer with timer_delete_sync() and then freed
the URB with usb_free_urb():
timer_delete_sync(&sc->ghl_poke_timer);
usb_free_urb(sc->ghl_urb);
timer_delete_sync() does not block re-arming, and while the URB is in
flight the timer is not pending, so the sync delete is a no-op. A URB
completion that runs after the delete re-arms the timer, and usb_free_urb()
only drops a reference -- it does not kill an in-flight URB. sc is
allocated with devm_kzalloc() and freed once sony_remove() returns, so the
re-armed ghl_poke_timer (embedded in sc) then fires on freed memory, a
use-after-free from timer softirq. This is a disconnect/rmmod race.
Poison the URB first, then shut the timer down, before freeing the URB.
usb_poison_urb() kills any in-flight URB and permanently rejects further
submissions, so a poke timer that is still pending cannot re-submit the
URB from ghl_magic_poke() in the window before timer_shutdown_sync() runs.
usb_kill_urb() would not suffice: it only cancels the in-flight URB and
leaves it submittable once it returns, so the pending timer could
re-submit it and put a fresh URB in flight over the freed sc.
timer_shutdown_sync() then drains any last callback and blocks re-arming.
The probe error path is unaffected: it is only reached before the timer
is armed.
Reproduced under KASAN on next-20260710 via dummy_hcd + raw-gadget
emulation of the GHL PS4 dongle (VID 0x1430 / PID 0x07bb): hid-sony binds
and arms the poke timer, the poke URB is held in flight, the driver is
unbound (freeing sc), then the URB is released. The completion re-arms the
timer on the freed sc, and the re-armed timer fires ~8 s later:

HID: universal-pidff: stop the device when force-feedback init fails
universal_pidff_probe() starts the device with hid_hw_start() and then, if
force-feedback initialisation fails, returns the error through a label that
only does "return error". The device is left started.
The HID core does not unwind on the driver's behalf. __hid_device_probe()
releases the devres group, closes the report and clears hdev->driver:
if (ret) {
devres_release_group(&hdev->dev, hdev->devres_group_id);
hid_close_report(hdev);
hdev->driver = NULL;
}
The hidraw character device that hid_hw_start() registered through
hid_connect() is allocated with kzalloc() and added with cdev_device_add(),
so it is not devres-managed and survives that. With hdev->driver NULL,
hid_device_remove() skips hid_hw_stop() as well, because it only unwinds
while a driver is still attached. The registration therefore outlives the
device on both paths.
Opening the surviving /dev/hidrawX writes into freed memory. KASAN reports
a use-after-free write from hidraw_open() -> hid_hw_open() -> the
transport's open callback, which takes a spinlock inside the freed object.
A descriptor that carries a PID usage page and no input reports is enough:
hidraw claims the device so hid_hw_start() succeeds, while hid->inputs
stays empty so force-feedback init fails. The other failure returns in
hid_pidff_init_with_quirks() - no output reports, an allocation failure,
pidff_init_fields(), pidff_check_autocenter(), an unusable effect count,
input_ff_create() - all reach the same label.
Stop the device on that path. hid-dr.c and hid-emsff.c, which start the
device with the same HID_CONNECT_DEFAULT & ~HID_CONNECT_FF mask, already do
this. The two earlier gotos must keep returning without hid_hw_stop(),
since neither has a started device, so give the path that fails after the
start its own label.

HID: mcp2221: clear rxbuf after I2C/SMBus transfer completes
mcp_i2c_smbus_read() stores the caller-supplied buffer pointer in
mcp->rxbuf for the duration of a transfer but never clears it when the
transfer finishes or times out. Once the caller frees or reuses the
buffer, mcp->rxbuf becomes a dangling pointer. A delayed or spurious
MCP2221_I2C_GET_DATA report can then drive mcp2221_raw_event() to
memcpy device data into the freed memory, causing a write
use-after-free.
Route all return paths through a single exit point that clears
mcp->rxbuf and mcp->rxbuf_size, so that the existing !mcp->rxbuf guard
in the raw_event handler can reject any report arriving after the
transfer has ended. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
erofs: skip sufficiently large global buffers when resizing
z_erofs_gbuf_nrpages is advanced only after every global buffer has been
grown. If a resize fails after some buffers were enlarged, a retry
revisits those enlarged buffers.
Retrying the same size then returns -ENOMEM because alloc_pages_bulk()
has no pages to add and the unchanged return value is treated as a
failure. Retrying an intermediate size allocates a temporary pointer
array smaller than gbuf->nrpages and copies more existing pointers than
the array can hold.
Skip buffers that already satisfy the request. Once all remaining
buffers have caught up, advancing z_erofs_gbuf_nrpages again describes
the guaranteed minimum size across the pool. |

acpi/apei/ghes: Use raw_spinlock_t for CXL CPER work locks
The CXL CPER work registration and unregistration helpers acquire
cxl_cper_work_lock and cxl_cper_prot_err_work_lock with a spinlock
guard(), which leaves local interrupts enabled. The corresponding post
paths (cxl_cper_post_event(), cxl_cper_post_prot_err()) execute in hard
IRQ context (they are called from the GHES error notification path) and
acquire the same locks with an irqsave guard().
If a CPU is holding one of these locks via a spinlock guard() when a GHES
interrupt arrives on the same CPU, the IRQ handler spins on the held lock
waiting for it to release, while the lock holder is preempted by the IRQ.
The result is a deadlock.
Convert both locks from spinlock_t to raw_spinlock_t and use guard() at
all call sites. On PREEMPT_RT kernels spinlock_t is backed by rt_mutex and
sleeping from hard IRQ context is not permitted; raw_spinlock_t is safe in
both contexts.
Add WARN_ONCE to both register functions to surface double-registration
bugs at runtime.
Restructure both unregister functions to clear the global work pointer
under the lock before calling cancel_work_sync(), closing the window
where a CPER interrupt could schedule work on a pointer about to be
freed. Add kfifo_reset() after cancel_work_sync() so stale entries
are not replayed on next module load.
Both kfifos are single-consumer: only one work_struct is registered at
a time, enforced by the WARN_ONCE guard in the register functions.
kfifo_reset() is safe outside the lock because cancel_work_sync() has
already quiesced the consumer, and no new consumer can register until
the current module exit completes and a fresh module init runs.
Remove the redundant cancel_work_sync() call from cxl_ras_exit() and
cxl_pci_driver_exit(). The CPER unregister functions now quiesce
the work internally. |

cpufreq: apple-soc: Fix OPP table cleanup
apple_soc_cpufreq_init() adds OPP tables from firmware, but
some failure paths do not remove them. The driver also uses
dev_pm_opp_remove_all_dynamic(), which is not the right cleanup
helper for OPP tables loaded from firmware.
Use the cpumask OPP helper after the policy CPU mask has been
populated. Pair it with the matching cpumask remove helper on
failure paths and in apple_soc_cpufreq_exit(). This also removes
the separate dev_pm_opp_set_sharing_cpus() call, as the cpumask
helper loads the DT OPP tables for all CPUs in the policy. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ip: orphan prefetched skbs before multicast forwarding
IPv4 and IPv6 input preserve an skb->sk association installed by
bpf_sk_assign() so that local delivery can use the selected socket under
RCU. Both address families can also prefetch a socket in UDP early demux.
In both paths (BPF and UDP early demux) a reference is not guaranteed to
be held on the socket.
When a multicast packet is not locally deliverable, IPv6 hands the
original skb to ip6_mr_input(). IPv4's ip_mr_input() similarly keeps the
original skb when local delivery is not needed. Either path can put the
skb on an unresolved multicast route queue or forward it after the
receive-side RCU section ends.
After the prefetched socket is destroyed, a later skb free invokes
sock_pfree() and dereferences the stale skb->sk. Orphan the skb before
each non-local multicast forwarding path. Local delivery retains the
original skb; the existing skb_clone() calls provide multicast forwarding
with a socket-free clone. |

ipv6: rpl: fix NULL dereference of idev in ipv6_rpl_srh_rcv()
ipv6_rpl_srh_rcv() dereferences idev from __in6_dev_get() without a NULL
check when reading idev->cnf.rpl_seg_enabled.
When the device's MTU drops below IPV6_MIN_MTU, addrconf_ifdown() clears
dev->ip6_ptr through RCU_INIT_POINTER(). A packet that passed the idev
check in ip6_rcv_core() can then reach ipv6_rpl_srh_rcv() with
dev->ip6_ptr already NULL.

sunrpc: defer rq_argp and rq_resp free until after RCU grace period
svc_rqst_free() frees rqstp->rq_argp and rqstp->rq_resp synchronously
via kfree(), but defers the rqstp struct free via kfree_rcu(). After
svc_exit_thread() calls list_del_rcu() and svc_rqst_free(), there is
a window where RCU readers that started before list_del_rcu() can still
traverse the thread list and find the rqstp. These readers (e.g.
nfsd_nl_rpc_status_get_dumpit()) dereference rqstp->rq_argp, which has
already been freed — a use-after-free.
Fix this by moving the kfree of rq_argp and rq_resp into an explicit
call_rcu() callback alongside the struct free. Resources not accessed
by RCU readers (bvec, buffer pages, scratch folio, auth_data) remain
synchronously freed. |

SUNRPC: fix gssx_dec_option_array error path bugs
Four coupled defects in the gssx XDR option-array decoder make the
error paths unsafe: a NULL deref in the caller, a refcount leak on
the decoded group_info, and a latent use-after-free that the leak
fix would otherwise expose.
gssx_dec_option_array() sets oa->count = 1 before allocating
oa->data. If that allocation fails, -ENOMEM is returned with
oa->count == 1 and oa->data == NULL. All other error paths jump
to free_oa: which frees oa->data and NULLs it but also leaves
oa->count == 1. The caller trusts the count:
gssp_accept_sec_context_upcall()
gssx_dec_accept_sec_context()
gssx_dec_option_array() /* fails, count=1 data=NULL */
data = res.options.data[0].value /* NULL deref */
Independently, free_creds: releases the partially decoded svc_cred
with a bare kfree(creds). gssx_dec_linux_creds() installs a
groups_alloc() result into creds->cr_group_info; that object is
kvmalloc-backed and refcounted, and only put_group_info() reaches
kvfree(). A plain kfree(creds) drops the wrapper and leaks the
group_info allocation.
The natural fix for the leak is to call free_svc_cred(creds) before
kfree(creds), but free_svc_cred() invokes put_group_info() on
creds->cr_group_info unconditionally when non-NULL. The existing
out_free_groups: path in gssx_dec_linux_creds() already called
groups_free() on that pointer without clearing it, so once
free_svc_cred() is wired in, the subsequent put_group_info() would
touch freed memory.
Fix all four together:
- Move the oa->count = 1 assignment below the oa->data allocation
so it is never set when oa->data is NULL.
- Reset oa->count to 0 at free_oa: so count and data stay
coherent and the caller sees an empty option array.
- Call free_svc_cred(creds) before kfree(creds) at free_creds:
so the refcounted cr_group_info is released. free_svc_cred()
either NULL-guards each field explicitly (cr_group_info has
an if() check) or delegates to a helper that is NULL-safe
itself (kfree for the string fields, gss_mech_put() which
guards with if(gm) at gss_mech_switch.c:342), so it is safe
to call on a partially decoded svc_cred where only
cr_uid/cr_gid/cr_group_info have been written and everything
else is zero from kzalloc.
- In gssx_dec_linux_creds()'s out_free_groups: path, release
cr_group_info with put_group_info() rather than groups_free()
so the teardown matches free_svc_cred()'s refcount-aware path,
and clear the pointer so a later free_svc_cred() on the same
creds does not release it a second time. |
