USB: chaoskey: Fix slab-use-after-free in chaoskey_release()
The chaoskey driver has a use-after-free bug in its release routine.
If the user closes the device file after the USB device has been
unplugged, a debugging log statement will try to access the
usb_interface structure after it has been deallocated:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in dev_driver_string (drivers/base/core.c:2406)
Read of size 8 at addr ffff888168e8a0b8 by task chaoskey_raw_re/10106
Hardware name: QEMU Ubuntu 24.04 PC v2 (i440FX + PIIX, arch_caps fix, 1996), BIOS 1.16.3-debian-1.16.3-2 04/01/2014

The driver's last reference to the interface structure is dropped in
the chaoskey_free() routine, so the code must not use the interface --
even in a debugging statement -- after that routine returns.
(Exception: If we know that another reference is held by someone else,
such as the device core while the disconnect routine runs, there's no
problem. Thanks to Johan Hovold for pointing this out.)
Since the bad access is part of an unimportant debugging statement,
we can fix the problem simply by removing the whole statement. |

netpoll: fix a use-after-free on shutdown path
There is a use-after-free error on netpoll, which is clearly detected by
KASAN.
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x3b/0x80

The problem happens when there is a pending TX worker running in
parallel with the cleanup path.
This is what happens on netpoll shutdown path:
1) __netpoll_cleanup() is called
2) set dev->npinfo to NULL
3) call_rcu() with rcu_cleanup_netpoll_info()
3.1) rcu_cleanup_netpoll_info() tries to cancel all workers with
cancel_delayed_work(), but doesn't wait for the worker to finish
4) and kfree(npinfo);
Because 3.1) doesn't really cancel the work, as the comment says "we
can't call cancel_delayed_work_sync here, as we are in softirq", the TX
worker can run after 4).
Tl;DR: queue_process() is not an RCU reader, it reaches npinfo through
the work item via container_of().
Use disable_delayed_work_sync() to ensure the worker is completely
stopped and prevent any future re-arming attempts. Once npinfo is set
to NULL, senders will bail out and not queue new work. The disable flag
ensures any in-flight re-arming attempts also fail silently.
In the future, we can do the cleanup inline here without needing the
npinfo->rcu rcu_head, but that is net-next material. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: letsketch: fix UAF on inrange_timer at driver unbind
letsketch_driver does not provide a .remove callback, but
letsketch_probe() arms a per-device timer:
timer_setup(&data->inrange_timer, letsketch_inrange_timeout, 0);
The timer is re-armed from letsketch_raw_event() with a 100 ms
timeout on every pen-in-range report, and its callback dereferences
data->input_tablet to deliver a synthetic BTN_TOOL_PEN release.
letsketch_data is allocated with devm_kzalloc(), and its input_dev
fields are devm-allocated via letsketch_setup_input_tablet(). On
device unbind (USB unplug or rmmod), the HID core runs its default
teardown and devm cleanup frees both letsketch_data and the input
devices. Because no .remove callback exists, nothing drains the
timer first: if raw_event armed it within ~100 ms of the unbind,
the pending timer fires on freed memory. This is a UAF read of
data and of data->input_tablet, followed by input_report_key() /
input_sync() into the freed input_dev.
The same problem can occur on the probe error path: if
hid_hw_start() enabled I/O on an always-poll-quirk device and then
failed, raw_event may have armed the timer before devm releases
data.
Fix by adding a .remove callback that calls hid_hw_stop() first.
hid_hw_stop() synchronously kills the URBs that deliver raw_event(),
so once it returns no path can re-arm the timer. timer_shutdown_sync()
then drains any in-flight callback and permanently disables further
mod_timer() calls. Apply the same timer_shutdown_sync() in the probe
error path so the timer is guaranteed not to outlive data. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: lg-g15: cancel pending work on remove to fix a use-after-free
lg_g15_data is allocated with devm and holds a work item. The report
handlers schedule that work straight from device input.
lg_g15_event() and lg_g15_v2_event() do it on the backlight cycle key,
and lg_g510_leds_event() does it too. The worker dereferences the
lg_g15_data back through container_of.
The driver had no remove callback and never cancelled the work. So if a
report scheduled the work and the keyboard was then unplugged, devres
freed lg_g15_data while the work was still pending or running, and the
worker touched freed memory. This is a use-after-free. It is reachable
as a race on device unplug.
Add a remove callback that cancels the work before devres frees the
state. g15->work is only initialized for the models that schedule it
(G15, G15 v2, G510). The G13 and Z-10 leave it zeroed, so guard the
cancel on g15->work.func to avoid cancelling a work that was never set
up. The g15 NULL test mirrors the one already in lg_g15_raw_event(). |

fbdev: modedb: fix a possible UAF in fb_find_mode()
If mode_option is NULL, it is assigned from mode_option_buf:
if (!mode_option) {
fb_get_options(NULL, &mode_option_buf);
mode_option = mode_option_buf;
}
Later, name is assigned from mode_option:
const char *name = mode_option;
However, mode_option_buf is freed before name is no longer used:
kfree(mode_option_buf);
while name is still accessed by:
if ((name_matches(db[i], name, namelen) ||
Since name aliases mode_option_buf, this may result in a
use-after-free.
Fix this by extending the lifetime of mode_option_buf until the end of the
function by using scope-based resource management for cleanup. |

spi: qup: fix error pointer deref after DMA setup failure
The driver falls back to PIO mode if DMA setup fails during probe.
Make sure to the clear the DMA channel pointers on setup failure to
avoid dereferencing an error pointer (or attempting to release a channel
a second time) on later probe errors or driver unbind.
This issue was flagged by Sashiko when reviewing a devres allocation
conversion patch. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: isci: Fix use-after-free in device removal path
The ISCI completion tasklet is initialized in isci_host_alloc()
(drivers/scsi/isci/init.c:496) and scheduled from both MSI-X and legacy
interrupt handlers (drivers/scsi/isci/host.c:223,613).
isci_host_deinit() stops the controller and waits for stop completion,
but it never kills completion_tasklet before teardown continues. A
top-of-function tasklet_kill() is not sufficient here: interrupts are
only disabled when isci_host_stop_complete() runs, so until
wait_for_stop() returns the IRQ handlers can still requeue the
tasklet. The tasklet callback also re-enables interrupts after draining
completions, so killing the tasklet before the source is quiesced leaves
the same race open.
Once wait_for_stop() returns, no further IRQ-driven scheduling can
occur. Kill completion_tasklet there so teardown cannot race a queued
tasklet running on a dead ihost. On remove or unload, the stale callback
can otherwise dereference ihost and touch ihost->smu_registers after the
host lifetime ends.
A UML + KASAN analogue reproduced the failure class both with no
tasklet_kill() and with tasklet_kill() placed before source quiesce, and
stayed clean once the kill happened after quiescing the scheduling
source.
This mirrors commit f6ab594672d4 ("scsi: aic94xx: fix use-after-free in
device removal path"), but ISCI needs the kill after wait_for_stop(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: fix use-after-free in store_modes()
store_modes() replaces a framebuffer's modelist with modes from userspace.
On success it frees the old modelist with fb_destroy_modelist(). Two
fields still point into that freed list.
One pointer is fb_display[i].mode, the mode a console is using.
fbcon_new_modelist() moves these pointers to the new list. It only does so
for consoles still mapped to the framebuffer. An unmapped console is
skipped and keeps its stale pointer. Unbinding fbcon, for example, sets
con2fb_map[i] to -1 but leaves fb_display[i].mode set. An
FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO ioctl with FB_ACTIVATE_INV_MODE later reaches
fbcon_mode_deleted(). That function reads the stale fb_display[i].mode
through fb_mode_is_equal(). The read is a use-after-free.
The other pointer is fb_info->mode, the current mode. It is set through
the mode sysfs attribute. store_modes() does not update fb_info->mode, so
it is left pointing into the freed list. show_mode(), the attribute's read
handler, dereferences the stale fb_info->mode through mode_string(). The
read is a use-after-free.
Clear both pointers before freeing the list. Commit a1f305893074 ("fbcon:
Set fb_display[i]->mode to NULL when the mode is released") added the
helper fbcon_delete_modelist(). It clears every fb_display[i].mode that
points into a given list. So far it is called only from the unregister
path. Call it from store_modes() too, and set fb_info->mode to NULL. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gfs2: fix use-after-free in gfs2_qd_dealloc
gfs2_qd_dealloc(), called as an RCU callback from gfs2_qd_dispose(),
accesses the superblock object sdp through qd->qd_sbd after freeing qd.
It does so to decrement sd_quota_count and wake up sd_kill_wait.
However, by the time the RCU callback runs, gfs2_put_super() may have
already freed sdp via free_sbd(). This can happen when
gfs2_quota_cleanup() is called during unmount: it disposes of quota
objects via call_rcu() and then waits on sd_kill_wait with a 60-second
timeout. If the timeout expires, or if gfs2_gl_hash_clear() triggers
additional qd_put() calls that schedule more RCU callbacks after the
wait completes, gfs2_put_super() will proceed to free the superblock
while RCU callbacks referencing it are still pending.
Add an rcu_barrier() before free_sbd() in gfs2_put_super() to ensure
all pending RCU callbacks (including gfs2_qd_dealloc) have completed
before the superblock is freed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conntrack: destroy stale expectfn expectations on unregister
NAT helpers such as nf_nat_h323 store a raw pointer to module text in
exp->expectfn (e.g. ip_nat_q931_expect). nf_ct_helper_expectfn_unregister()
only unlinks the callback descriptor and never walks the expectation table,
so an expectation pending at module removal survives with a dangling
exp->expectfn into freed module text.
When the expected connection arrives, init_conntrack() invokes
exp->expectfn(), now a stale pointer into the unloaded module. Reproduced
on a KASAN build by loading the H.323 helpers, creating a Q.931
expectation, unloading nf_nat_h323, then connecting to the expected port:
Oops: int3: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI

Modules linked in: nf_conntrack_h323 [last unloaded: nf_nat_h323]
Reaching the dangling state requires CAP_SYS_MODULE in the initial user
namespace to remove a NAT helper that still has live expectations, so this
is a robustness fix; leaving an expectation pointing at freed text is wrong
regardless.
Add nf_ct_helper_expectfn_destroy(), which walks the expectation table and
drops every expectation whose ->expectfn matches the descriptor being torn
down. Call it from each NAT helper's exit path after the existing RCU grace
period, so no expectation outlives the code it points at and no extra
synchronize_rcu() is introduced. With the fix, the same reproducer runs to
completion without the Oops. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mailbox: mailbox-test: free channels on probe error
On probe error, free the previously obtained channels. This not only
prevents a leak, but also UAF scenarios because the client structure
will be removed nonetheless because it was allocated with devm. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvmem: core: fix use-after-free bugs in error paths
Fix several instances of error paths in which we call
__nvmem_device_put() - which may end up freeing the underlying memory
and other resources - and then keep on using the nvmem structure. Always
put the reference to the nvmem device as the last step before returning
the error code. |

Bluetooth: hci_ldisc: Clear HCI_UART_PROTO_INIT on error
When hci_register_dev() fails in hci_uart_register_dev()
HCI_UART_PROTO_INIT is not cleared before calling hu->proto->close(hu)
and setting hu->hdev to NULL. This means incoming UART data will reach
the protocol-specific recv handler in hci_uart_tty_receive() after
resources are freed.
Clear HCI_UART_PROTO_INIT with a write lock before calling
hu->proto->close() and setting hu->hdev to NULL. The write lock ensures
all active readers have completed and no new reader can enter the
protocol recv path before resources are freed.
This allows the protocol-specific recv functions to remove the
"HCI_UART_REGISTERED" guard without risking a null pointer dereference
if hci_register_dev() fails. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gfs2: prevent NULL pointer dereference during unmount
When flushing out outstanding glock work during an unmount, gfs2_log_flush()
can be called when sdp->sd_jdesc has already been deallocated and sdp->sd_jdesc
is NULL. Commit 35264909e9d1 ("gfs2: Fix NULL pointer dereference in
gfs2_log_flush") added a check for that to gfs2_log_flush() itself, but it
missed the sdp->sd_jdesc dereference in gfs2_log_release(). Fix that. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm: Replace old pointer to new idr
Commit 5e28b7b94408 introduced a logical error by failing to replace the
newly generated IDR pointer to old id's pointer at the correct location
within the "change handle" logic; this resulted in the issue reported by
syzbot [1].
Specifically, the new IDR object pointer is intended to replace the original
id's pointer during the normal execution flow.
Additionally, an unnecessary conditional check for the ret exit path has
been removed.

wifi: mwifiex: fix use-after-free in mwifiex_adapter_cleanup()
The mwifiex_adapter_cleanup() function uses timer_delete()
(non-synchronous) for the wakeup_timer before the adapter structure is
freed. This is incorrect because timer_delete() does not wait for any
running timer callback to complete.
If the wakeup_timer callback (wakeup_timer_fn) is executing when
mwifiex_adapter_cleanup() is called, the callback will continue to
access adapter fields (adapter->hw_status, adapter->if_ops.card_reset,
etc.) which may be freed by mwifiex_free_adapter() called later in the
mwifiex_remove_card() path.
Use timer_delete_sync() instead to ensure any running timer callback has
completed before returning. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: qrtr: ns: Fix use-after-free in driver remove()
In the remove callback, if a packet arrives after destroy_workqueue() is
called, but before sock_release(), the qrtr_ns_data_ready() callback will
try to queue the work, causing use-after-free issue.
Fix this issue by saving the default 'sk_data_ready' callback during
qrtr_ns_init() and use it to replace the qrtr_ns_data_ready() callback at
the start of remove(). This ensures that even if a packet arrives after
destroy_workqueue(), the work struct will not be dereferenced.
Note that it is also required to ensure that the RX threads are completed
before destroying the workqueue, because the threads could be using the
qrtr_ns_data_ready() callback. |
