ext4: fix use-after-free in update_super_work when racing with umount
Commit b98535d09179 ("ext4: fix bug_on in start_this_handle during umount
filesystem") moved ext4_unregister_sysfs() before flushing s_sb_upd_work
to prevent new error work from being queued via /proc/fs/ext4/xx/mb_groups
reads during unmount. However, this introduced a use-after-free because
update_super_work calls ext4_notify_error_sysfs() -> sysfs_notify() which
accesses the kobject's kernfs_node after it has been freed by kobject_del()
in ext4_unregister_sysfs():
update_super_work ext4_put_super
----------------- --------------
ext4_unregister_sysfs(sb)
kobject_del(&sbi->s_kobj)
__kobject_del()
sysfs_remove_dir()
kobj->sd = NULL
sysfs_put(sd)
kernfs_put() // RCU free
ext4_notify_error_sysfs(sbi)
sysfs_notify(&sbi->s_kobj)
kn = kobj->sd // stale pointer
kernfs_get(kn) // UAF on freed kernfs_node
ext4_journal_destroy()
flush_work(&sbi->s_sb_upd_work)
Instead of reordering the teardown sequence, fix this by making
ext4_notify_error_sysfs() detect that sysfs has already been torn down
by checking s_kobj.state_in_sysfs, and skipping the sysfs_notify() call
in that case. A dedicated mutex (s_error_notify_mutex) serializes
ext4_notify_error_sysfs() against kobject_del() in ext4_unregister_sysfs()
to prevent TOCTOU races where the kobject could be deleted between the
state_in_sysfs check and the sysfs_notify() call. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPI: EC: clean up handlers on probe failure in acpi_ec_setup()
When ec_install_handlers() returns -EPROBE_DEFER on reduced-hardware
platforms, it has already started the EC and installed the address
space handler with the struct acpi_ec pointer as handler context.
However, acpi_ec_setup() propagates the error without any cleanup.
The caller acpi_ec_add() then frees the struct acpi_ec for non-boot
instances, leaving a dangling handler context in ACPICA.
Any subsequent AML evaluation that accesses an EC OpRegion field
dispatches into acpi_ec_space_handler() with the freed pointer,
causing a use-after-free:

The bug triggers on reduced-hardware EC platforms (ec->gpe < 0)
when the GPIO IRQ provider defers probing. Once the stale handler
exists, any unprivileged sysfs read that causes AML to touch an
EC OpRegion (battery, thermal, backlight) exercises the dangling
pointer.
Fix this by calling ec_remove_handlers() in the error path of
acpi_ec_setup() before clearing first_ec. ec_remove_handlers()
checks each EC_FLAGS_* bit before acting, so it is safe to call
regardless of how far ec_install_handlers() progressed:
-ENODEV (handler not installed): only calls acpi_ec_stop()
-EPROBE_DEFER (handler installed): removes handler, stops EC |

spi: fix use-after-free on controller registration failure
Make sure to deregister from driver core also in the unlikely event that
per-cpu statistics allocation fails during controller registration to
avoid use-after-free (of driver resources) and unclocked register
accesses. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix use-after-free of share_conf in compound request
smb2_get_ksmbd_tcon() reuses work->tcon in compound requests without
validating tcon->t_state. ksmbd_tree_conn_lookup() checks t_state ==
TREE_CONNECTED on the initial lookup path, but the compound reuse path
bypasses this check entirely.
If a prior command in the compound (SMB2_TREE_DISCONNECT) sets t_state
to TREE_DISCONNECTED and frees share_conf via ksmbd_share_config_put(),
subsequent commands dereference the freed share_conf through
work->tcon->share_conf.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: release flowtable after rcu grace period on error
Call synchronize_rcu() after unregistering the hooks from error path,
since a hook that already refers to this flowtable can be already
registered, exposing this flowtable to packet path and nfnetlink_hook
control plane.
This error path is rare, it should only happen by reaching the maximum
number hooks or by failing to set up to hardware offload, just call
synchronize_rcu().
There is a check for already used device hooks by different flowtable
that could result in EEXIST at this late stage. The hook parser can be
updated to perform this check earlier to this error path really becomes
rarely exercised.
Uncovered by KASAN reported as use-after-free from nfnetlink_hook path
when dumping hooks. |

netfilter: nft_set_pipapo: split gc into unlink and reclaim phase
Yiming Qian reports Use-after-free in the pipapo set type:
Under a large number of expired elements, commit-time GC can run for a very
long time in a non-preemptible context, triggering soft lockup warnings and
RCU stall reports (local denial of service).
We must split GC in an unlink and a reclaim phase.
We cannot queue elements for freeing until pointers have been swapped.
Expired elements are still exposed to both the packet path and userspace
dumpers via the live copy of the data structure.
call_rcu() does not protect us: dump operations or element lookups starting
after call_rcu has fired can still observe the free'd element, unless the
commit phase has made enough progress to swap the clone and live pointers
before any new reader has picked up the old version.
This a similar approach as done recently for the rbtree backend in commit
35f83a75529a ("netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: don't gc elements on insert"). |

locking/lockdep: Invalidate stale class_cache entries for zapped classes

When a lock class is zapped (e.g. during module unload or key
unregistration), zap_class() clears the class's bit in
lock_classes_in_use and removes it from the class hash table.
However, existing lockdep_map instances embedded in data structures
may still retain a pointer to the zapped class in their class_cache[]
array.
When __lock_acquire() subsequently runs on such a lock, it finds
lock->class_cache[subclass] != NULL, skipping register_lock_class()
and assigning hlock->class_idx to the index of the zapped class. When
check_wait_context() or hlock_class() inspects the held_lock, it finds
!test_bit(class_idx, lock_classes_in_use) and warns. Furthermore, if
the zapped slot is subsequently re-allocated to an unrelated lock key,
the stale class_cache entry would erroneously match the unrelated
class (ABA issue).
Add lock_class_cache_is_valid() to validate that the cached class is
within lock_classes bounds, still allocated in lock_classes_in_use
(using uninstrumented arch_test_bit() in __always_inline context so it
is safe in noinstr contexts like match_held_lock()), and that
class->key matches the expected subkey (taking lockdep_set_subclass()
overrides into account). Also use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() when
accessing class_cache[]. If the entry is invalid or stale, fall back
to register_lock_class() / look_up_lock_class(). |

ALSA: usb: 6fire: Avoid embedded URBs
The USB 6fire driver uses URBs embedded in different structs for PCM,
MIDI and communication, and this is basically a buggy implementation
nowadays; since a URB is managed with a refcount, this may lead to a
UAF when the URB is released asynchronously.
For addressing the problem, this patch converts those embedded URBs to
ones that are properly allocated via usb_alloc_urb(). The
pcm_urb.packets[] is gone, as it's allocated by usb_alloc_urb(), hence
it's found in urb.iso_frame_desc[] instead.
The conversions are rather straightforward; each embedded struct urb
is changed to a pointer, and its callers are updated accordingly.
The resource for those structs are released in the common destructor
functions (usb6fire_comm_free(), etc), which are called at both the
init error path and the disconnect.
No functional changes, only compile-tested. |
| Use-after-free vulnerability in VFS in Google gVisor prior to release 20260831.0 on all platforms allows a local attacker with standard container privileges to achieve code execution in the host sentry process by double-freeing the backing MemoryFile from an in-sandbox overlay filesystem. The sentry process remains confined by host-level Linux seccomp and namespace boundaries. |

nexthop: avoid unlocked f6i_list walk in nh_rt_cache_flush
nh_rt_cache_flush() walks nh->f6i_list during an RTNL-serialized nexthop
replace without holding nh->lock, racing the unlocked IPv6 route
add/delete that mutate the list under nh->lock and free fib6_info
entries (nh_rt_cache_flush() is inlined into rtm_new_nexthop()):
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in nh_rt_cache_flush (net/ipv4/nexthop.c:2243)

media: iris: fix use-after-free of fmt_src during MBPF check
During concurrency testing, multiple instances can run in parallel, and
each instance uses its own inst->lock while the core->lock protects the
list of active instances. The race happens because these locks cover
different scopes, inst->lock protects only the internals of a single
instance, while the Macro Blocks Per Frame (MBPF) checker walks the
core list under core->lock and reads fields like fmt_src->width and
fmt_src->height. At the same time, iris_close() may free fmt_src and
fmt_dst under inst->lock while the instance is still present in the core
list. This allows a situation where the MBPF checker, still iterating
through the core list, reaches an instance whose fmt_src was already
freed by another thread and ends up dereferencing a dangling pointer,
resulting in a use-after-free. This happens because the MBPF checker
assumes that any instance in the core list is fully valid, but the
freeing of fmt_src and fmt_dst without removing the instance from the
core list is not correct.
The correct ordering is to defer freeing fmt_src and fmt_dst until after
the instance has been removed from the core list and all teardown under
the core lock has completed, ensuring that no dangling pointers are ever
exposed during MBPF checks. |

net: ti: icssg-prueth: fix use-after-free of CPPI descriptor in RX path
cppi5_hdesc_get_psdata() returns a pointer into the CPPI descriptor.
In both emac_rx_packet() and emac_rx_packet_zc(), the descriptor is
freed via k3_cppi_desc_pool_free() before the psdata pointer is used
by emac_rx_timestamp(), which dereferences psdata[0] and psdata[1].
This constitutes a use-after-free on every received packet that goes
through the timestamp path.
Defer the descriptor free until after all accesses through the psdata
pointer are complete. For emac_rx_packet(), move the free into the
requeue label so both early-exit and success paths free the descriptor
after all accesses are done. For emac_rx_packet_zc(), move the free to
the end of the loop body after emac_dispatch_skb_zc() (which calls
emac_rx_timestamp()) has returned. |

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:

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:
sctp: stream: fully roll back denied add-stream state
When ADD_OUT_STREAMS is denied, SCTP only shrinks the queued chunks and
then lowers outcnt. That leaves removed stream metadata behind, so a
later re-add can reuse a stale ext and hit a null-pointer dereference in
the scheduler get path.
Fix the rollback by tearing down the removed stream state the same way
other stream resizes do. Unschedule the current scheduler state, drop
the removed stream ext state with sctp_stream_outq_migrate(), and then
reschedule the remaining streams.
This keeps scheduler-private RR/FC/PRIO lists consistent while fully
rolling back denied outgoing stream additions. |

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. |
