The address being probed has some special:
cmdline_proc_show: Probe based on ftrace
cmdline_proc_show+16: Probe for the next instruction at the ftrace location
The ftrace-based kprobe does not generate kprobe::ainsn::insn, it gets
set to NULL. In arch_prepare_kprobe() it will check for:
...
prev = get_kprobe(p->addr - 1);
preempt_enable_no_resched();
if (prev && ppc_inst_prefixed(ppc_inst_read(prev->ainsn.insn))) {
...
If prev is based on ftrace, 'ppc_inst_read(prev->ainsn.insn)' will occur
with a null pointer reference. At this point prev->addr will not be a
prefixed instruction, so the check can be skipped.
Check if prev is ftrace-based kprobe before reading 'prev->ainsn.insn'
to fix this problem.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
power: supply: cw2015: Fix potential null-ptr-deref in cw_bat_probe()
cw_bat_probe() calls create_singlethread_workqueue() and not checked the
ret value, which may return NULL. And a null-ptr-deref may happen:
cw_bat_probe()
create_singlethread_workqueue() # failed, cw_bat->wq is NULL
queue_delayed_work()
queue_delayed_work_on()
__queue_delayed_work() # warning here, but continue
__queue_work() # access wq->flags, null-ptr-deref
Check the ret value and return -ENOMEM if it is NULL. |

In elf_kexec_load(), a buffer is allocated via kvmalloc() to store fdt.
While it's not freed back to system when kexec kernel is reloaded or
unloaded. Then memory leak is caused. Fix it by introducing riscv
specific function arch_kimage_file_post_load_cleanup(), and freeing the
buffer there. |

mm: hugetlb: fix UAF in hugetlb_handle_userfault
The vma_lock and hugetlb_fault_mutex are dropped before handling userfault
and reacquire them again after handle_userfault(), but reacquire the
vma_lock could lead to UAF[1,2] due to the following race,
hugetlb_fault
hugetlb_no_page
/*unlock vma_lock */
hugetlb_handle_userfault
handle_userfault
/* unlock mm->mmap_lock*/
vm_mmap_pgoff
do_mmap
mmap_region
munmap_vma_range
/* clean old vma */
/* lock vma_lock again <--- UAF */
/* unlock vma_lock */
Since the vma_lock will unlock immediately after
hugetlb_handle_userfault(), let's drop the unneeded lock and unlock in
hugetlb_handle_userfault() to fix the issue.

The source of this warning is in iosys_map_clear() called from
dma_buf_vmap(). It conditionally sets values based on map->is_iomem. The
iosys_map variables are allocated uninitialized on the stack leading to
->is_iomem having all kinds of values and not only 0/1.
Fix this by zeroing the iosys_map variables. |

wifi: ath11k: fix monitor mode bringup crash
When the interface is brought up in monitor mode, it leads
to NULL pointer dereference crash. This crash happens when
the packet type is extracted for a SKB. This extraction
which is present in the received msdu delivery path,is
not needed for the monitor ring packets since they are
all RAW packets. Hence appending the flags with
"RX_FLAG_ONLY_MONITOR" to skip that extraction.

media: dvb-usb: fix memory leak in dvb_usb_adapter_init()
Syzbot reports a memory leak in "dvb_usb_adapter_init()".
The leak is due to not accounting for and freeing current iteration's
adapter->priv in case of an error. Currently if an error occurs,
it will exit before incrementing "num_adapters_initalized",
which is used as a reference counter to free all adap->priv
in "dvb_usb_adapter_exit()". There are multiple error paths that
can exit from before incrementing the counter. Including the
error handling paths for "dvb_usb_adapter_stream_init()",
"dvb_usb_adapter_dvb_init()" and "dvb_usb_adapter_frontend_init()"
within "dvb_usb_adapter_init()".
This means that in case of an error in any of these functions the
current iteration is not accounted for and the current iteration's
adap->priv is not freed.
Fix this by freeing the current iteration's adap->priv in the
"stream_init_err:" label in the error path. The rest of the
(accounted for) adap->priv objects are freed in dvb_usb_adapter_exit()
as expected using the num_adapters_initalized variable.
Syzbot report:

serial: amba-pl011: avoid SBSA UART accessing DMACR register
Chapter "B Generic UART" in "ARM Server Base System Architecture" [1]
documentation describes a generic UART interface. Such generic UART
does not support DMA. In current code, sbsa_uart_pops and
amba_pl011_pops share the same stop_rx operation, which will invoke
pl011_dma_rx_stop, leading to an access of the DMACR register. This
commit adds a using_rx_dma check in pl011_dma_rx_stop to avoid the
access to DMACR register for SBSA UARTs which does not support DMA.
When the kernel enables DMA engine with "CONFIG_DMA_ENGINE=y", Linux
SBSA PL011 driver will access PL011 DMACR register in some functions.
For most real SBSA Pl011 hardware implementations, the DMACR write
behaviour will be ignored. So these DMACR operations will not cause
obvious problems. But for some virtual SBSA PL011 hardware, like Xen
virtual SBSA PL011 (vpl011) device, the behaviour might be different.
Xen vpl011 emulation will inject a data abort to guest, when guest is
accessing an unimplemented UART register. As Xen VPL011 is SBSA
compatible, it will not implement DMACR register. So when Linux SBSA
PL011 driver access DMACR register, it will get an unhandled data abort
fault and the application will get a segmentation fault:

put refcount, so memory of phy device and device name can be freed
in callback function.
If get_phy_device() fails, mdiobus_unregister() need be called,
or it will cause warning in mdiobus_free() and kobject is leaked. |

fpga: prevent integer overflow in dfl_feature_ioctl_set_irq()
The "hdr.count * sizeof(s32)" multiplication can overflow on 32 bit
systems leading to memory corruption. Use array_size() to fix that. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix potential memory leak in ext4_fc_record_modified_inode()
As krealloc may return NULL, in this case 'state->fc_modified_inodes'
may not be freed by krealloc, but 'state->fc_modified_inodes' already
set NULL. Then will lead to 'state->fc_modified_inodes' memory leak. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm: verity-loadpin: Only trust verity targets with enforcement
Verity targets can be configured to ignore corrupted data blocks.
LoadPin must only trust verity targets that are configured to
perform some kind of enforcement when data corruption is detected,
like returning an error, restarting the system or triggering a
panic. |

The root cause of this issue is in error path of f2fs_start_discard_thread(),
it missed to invalidate dcc->f2fs_issue_discard, later kthread_stop() may
access invalid pointer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdkfd: Fix memory leak in kfd_mem_dmamap_userptr()
If the number of pages from the userptr BO differs from the SG BO then the
allocated memory for the SG table doesn't get freed before returning
-EINVAL, which may lead to a memory leak in some error paths. Fix this by
checking the number of pages before allocating memory for the SG table. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: meson-gx: fix return value check of mmc_add_host()
mmc_add_host() may return error, if we ignore its return value,
it will lead two issues:
1. The memory that allocated in mmc_alloc_host() is leaked.
2. In the remove() path, mmc_remove_host() will be called to
delete device, but it's not added yet, it will lead a kernel
crash because of null-ptr-deref in device_del().
Fix this by checking the return value and goto error path which
will call mmc_free_host(). |

drm/amdgpu/powerplay/psm: Fix memory leak in power state init
Commit 902bc65de0b3 ("drm/amdgpu/powerplay/psm: return an error in power
state init") made the power state init function return early in case of
failure to get an entry from the powerplay table, but it missed to clean up
the allocated memory for the current power state before returning. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
regulator: core: Use different devices for resource allocation and DT lookup
Following by the below discussion, there's the potential UAF issue
between regulator and mfd.

| regulator_register()
It's common to use mfd core to create child device for the regulator.
In order to do the DT lookup for init data, the child that registered
the regulator would pass its parent as the parameter. And this causes
init data resource allocated to its parent, not itself. The issue happen
when parent device is going to release and regulator core is still doing
some operation of init data constraint for the regulator of child device.
To fix it, this patch expand 'regulator_register' API to use the
different devices for init data allocation and DT lookup. |
