2026-08-06packet: use consistent hard_header_len in non-ring send pathsQihang Tang1-2/+4
packet_snd() reads dev->hard_header_len multiple times while allocating and constructing an skb. Device reconfiguration can change this value concurrently, for example through bonding device type changes. For SOCK_RAW, packet_snd() can save a larger value in reserve and later allocate headroom using a smaller value. Moving skb->data back by reserve then places it before skb->head, and the following copy from userspace can attempt an out-of-bounds write. packet_sendmsg_spkt() has the same issue because it calculates its reservation and header offset from separate reads before dropping the RCU read lock to allocate the skb. Add LL_RESERVED_SPACE_EX() for callers that already saved a header length. Read hard_header_len once in packet_snd() and use it for allocation and construction. In packet_sendmsg_spkt(), preserve the allocation-time value through the device lookup retry. The separate SOCK_DGRAM consistency problem between hard_header_len and header_ops->create is not addressed here.

2026-08-06net: remove CAP_SYS_RAWIO zero-padding in dev_validate_headerQihang Tang1-5/+0
dev_validate_header() reads dev->hard_header_len directly when zero-padding short link layer headers for CAP_SYS_RAWIO holders: if (capable(CAP_SYS_RAWIO)) { memset(ll_header + len, 0, dev->hard_header_len - len); return true; } Packet send paths call dev_validate_header() on skbs whose headroom was allocated from an earlier hard_header_len read. If the device is reconfigured so that dev->hard_header_len increases before validation, the memset writes past the reserved buffer, an out-of-bounds write. This out-of-bounds write is masked in some SOCK_RAW paths today because the same concurrent increase can first make skb_push() exceed the reserved headroom and trigger skb_under_panic(). Remove the zero-padding branch before making those hard_header_len reads consistent, so the snapshot fixes do not turn a loud panic into a silent overwrite. This path is only reached for variable length L2 protocols, where len < hard_header_len but len >= min_header_len. No remaining in-tree variable length L2 protocol implements header_ops->validate, and the CAP_SYS_RAWIO bypass that zero-pads and accepts short headers has no real value beyond allowing testing of intentionally malformed input. Drop the CAP_SYS_RAWIO branch. The remaining reads of dev->hard_header_len in dev_validate_header() are comparisons only and have no memory safety impact.

2026-08-06net/sched: reject overly deep qdisc hierarchiesZijie Huang1-0/+1
Deep qdisc hierarchies can lead to excessive recursion in qdisc tree walkers and exhaust the kernel stack. The existing loop check does not cover the create-and-graft path, so a hierarchy can still be extended by creating a new child qdisc below an already deep parent. Store the hierarchy depth in struct Qdisc and update it when qdiscs are grafted. Reject new child qdiscs once the parent is already at the maximum allowed depth.

2026-08-05dibs: initialise dibs->lock in dibs_dev_alloc()Hidayath Khan1-1/+1
dibs->lock is initialised by dibs_dev_add(), but a dibs device can already take interrupts before that call: ism_probe() runs ism_dev_init(), and hence request_irq(), before it calls dibs_dev_add(). No client can have registered a dmb at that point, so no dmb interrupt can occur, but a GID event interrupt can, and ism_handle_irq() takes dibs->lock unconditionally on entry, before it inspects anything else. Initialise the lock in dibs_dev_alloc() instead, so that it is valid as soon as a driver can publish the device to its interrupt handler.

2026-08-05ASoC: cs35l41/cs35l45/cs4265: sort the reg_defaults tablesMark Brown21-53/+123
Peter Ujfalusi <peter.ujfalusi@linux.intel.com> says: reg_defaults must be sorted by ascending register address as regcache_lookup_reg() locates the entries in it with bsearch(), see commit fd80df352ba1 ("regcache: Add support for sorting defaults arrays"). These three tables have entries which are out of order, so the binary search does not find part of them. For those registers regcache_reg_needs_sync() cannot compare the cached value against the default and reports that a sync is needed, so they are written to the device on every regcache_sync() even when they were never touched. The patches only reorder the existing entries, the text of every entry is kept verbatim and no default value is changed. Each table was verified by evaluating the register addresses and replaying lib/bsearch.c on them. Entries not reachable by the binary search, per table: cs35l41_reg 2 (of 47) cs35l45_defaults 36 (of 73) cs4265_reg_defaults 3 (of 16) For cs35l45 this is nearly half of the table: the DSP1_RX*_RATE and DSP1_TX*_RATE registers sit in the middle of it while their addresses are far above everything else, which cuts the search off from the whole 0x4c40 - 0xf010 range. Found by an audit of all reg_defaults tables under sound/, the SoundWire codec drivers are fixed by a separate series.

2026-08-04mm/vmalloc: acquire init_mm lock on huge vmap to avoid ptdump UAFLorenzo Stoakes (ARM)1-0/+1
Patch series "mm: fix UAF caused by race between ptdump and vmap pgtable freeing", v6. Kernel page table walkers fall into two broad categories - those ranges where no exclusion is required via walk_kernel_page_table_range_lockless() and those where exclusion is required via walk_kernel_page_table_range() or walk_page_range_debug(). The former category is used only by arm64 arch code operating on ranges it both wholly owns and does not concurrently write. The latter category consists of kernel page table walkers operating on ranges that are wholly owned (but which need exclusion against concurrent writers). The lock used for exclusion is the mmap lock, and for kernel ranges this is the mmap lock on init_mm. ptdump is a special case being both the only user of walk_page_range_debug(), and the only case in which it walks ranges it does not own. This presents a problem, as page tables may be freed under ptdump. And indeed there is a use-after-free bug in the kernel as a result, which this series addresses. vmap promotes page tables to huge leaf entries where possible, freeing the lower page table when it does. It does this with no meaningful locks held against concurrent ptdump walks. As a result, use-after-free can currently occur. This series addresses the issue by having the vmap huge promotion logic acquire the mmap read lock while both setting the huge page table entry and freeing the prior leaf page table. The ptdump code already acquires the mmap write lock, so by doing so we ensure that the ptdump walker only ever observes either the huge page table entry or the existing page table entry, and nothing is freed underneath it. A mitigation for this issue was already applied for arm64 in commit fa93b45fd397 ("arm64: Enable vmalloc-huge with ptdump"), which this series has to deal with carefully. This mitigation resolves the issue by acquiring the mmap read lock on init_mm on vmap page table free if a ptdump is in progress. However the fix in this series would cause a deadlock if we were to simply apply it for arm64 without also reverting the change. This is because vmap may acquire the read lock before ptdump attempts to acquire the write lock, which then gets queued, and rwsem starvation rules mean that the (unacknowledged) nested mmap read lock in the arm64 code would also block, meaning the original read lock is never released and thus deadlock. This series works around this by #ifndef CONFIG_ARM64'ing the mmap read lock in vmap logic, then partially reverting commit fa93b45fd397 ("arm64: Enable vmalloc-huge with ptdump"), keeping the enablement of huge vmap support, and removing the ifdeffery with the partial revert patch. There are related issues that are also addressed in this series: * x86 page attribute logic, specifically Change Page Attributes (CPA), implements a feature whereby huge ranges can be collapsed into huge leaf entries. This can similarly cause a UAF when done in parallel with a ptdump walk, so similarly acquire the init_mm mmap lock to avoid this. * The CPA logic allows concurrent page table manipulation and CPA collapse, meaning the former risks accessing a page table the latter frees. Fix this by acquiring mmap write lock on init_mm across the whole CPA collapse operation and read lock on the page table manipulation. * x86 and arm64 permit walks of non-kernel mm's (both allowing efi mm walks, and in x86's case arbitrary mm's), so we ensure kernel mappings remain stable by locking the init_mm as well as the mm being walked. The ordering of patches is established for both strict dependencies (the arm64 partial revert in particular has to be done after the vmap changes) and logical ones (the non-kernel mm fix only makes sense once the vmap/CPA fixes are in place). This patch (of 3): Currently there is a nasty race between ptdump and vmap when attempting to map a huge P4D, PUD or PMD entry: * ptdump walks kernel page table ranges it doesn't own. * When vmap maps ranges it tries to promotes existing ones to huge page tables in vmap_try_huge_[p4d,pud,pmd]() at P4D, PUD and PMD level, freeing the lower page table in [p4d,pud,pmd]_free_[pud,pmd,pte]_page() when it succeeds. Both of these things can happen at the same time and as a result ptdump can access a freed page table, resulting in a use-after-free and memory corruption. This is possible because while ptdump_walk_pgd() holds both the mem hotplug lock and the mmap write lock before invoking walk_page_range_debug(), vmap takes no relevant locks at all. Fix this by holding the mmap read lock in vmap_try_huge_*() when freeing page tables. The read lock is sufficient: ptdump is the only walker that must be excluded and it holds the mmap write lock. Other holders of the read lock may run concurrently, but each exclusively owns the range it operates on and cannot reach the page tables freed here. We also hold the lock while assigning the huge page table entry, which means page table walkers observe only the huge or non-huge page table entry. We use a trylock to prevent ptdump from blocking vmap making forward progress. This is fine because it's an optimisation in any case, and thus the vmap can safely proceed regardless. All other kernel page table walkers that touch vmalloc ranges either exclusively own the memory walked or acquire the mmap lock, so this correctly excludes those walkers. One wrinkle here is commit fa93b45fd397 ("arm64: Enable vmalloc-huge with ptdump"), which addresses the issue for arm64 only by explicitly acquiring the mmap read lock on kernel page table freeing should a concurrent ptdump be in progress. This is problematic as vmap may acquire the mmap read lock prior to ptdump attempting to acquire an mmap write lock, leading to a deadlock when the mmap read lock is slept upon on page table freeing due to rwsem anti-starvation. We work around this by predicating the mmap lock being taken on !CONFIG_ARM64 for the time being. With this patch applied, a follow up will partially revert commit fa93b45fd397 ("arm64: Enable vmalloc-huge with ptdump") and at that stage remove the arm64 ifdeffery. We also update walk_page_range_debug() to assert the mmap write lock unconditionally and update the comment here to reflect this change. The issue has existed as long as ptdump was available and vmap freed page tables when promoting to a huge leaf entry, that is, since commit b6bdb7517c3d ("mm/vmalloc: add interfaces to free unmapped page table") for huge ioremap, and commit 121e6f3258fe ("mm/vmalloc: hugepage vmalloc mappings") for huge vmalloc. Since the former is the earlier of the two we choose that for our Fixes tag. We also define a guard class for mmap_read_trylock() so we can use cleanup.h to make the scope handling cleaner in the implementation. This patch is based on work by David Carlier (linked), with gratitude!

2026-08-04ipv6: prevent in6_dev_get() from resurrecting inet6_devKyle Zeng1-2/+2
in6_dev_get() reads dev->ip6_ptr under RCU and then unconditionally increments its refcount. Device teardown can clear the pointer and drop the last reference between these operations. The increment then resurrects an object whose RCU free has already been queued, so callers can use it after it is freed. Use refcount_inc_not_zero() and return NULL when the object has already reached zero. RCU keeps the memory accessible through the attempted reference acquisition, and a successful increment pins the object for the caller. An independent run on the exact unpatched 6f5156d7a31a (v7.2-rc3) kernel reproduced the invalid reference acquisition as UID 1000: refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free. ip6_mc_source+0xef4/0x17e0 It was followed by the corresponding reference underflow in ip6_mc_source(). The supplied trace from the same unpatched revision additionally shows the access after the RCU read-side section ends: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in mutex_lock+0x76/0xe0 Write of size 8 at addr ffff888015b50240 by task poc/1219 Bug found and triaged by OpenAI Security Research and validated by Trail of Bits.

2026-08-03xsk: validate metadata when processing requestsStanislav Fomichev2-25/+28
The zero-copy path validates TX metadata while obtaining the descriptor context, then reads it again later when preparing the hardware request. User space can change the metadata between those operations and bypass the original validation. Validate the metadata in xsk_tx_metadata_request() and use the resulting flags snapshot for every feature check. Read request fields once so all zero-copy drivers process only values observed after successful validation.

xsk_tx_metadata_request() must validate metadata with xsk_buff_valid_tx_metadata(), which is defined in xdp_sock_drv.h. Move the helper there before adding that dependency.

Launch-time metadata extends beyond the first 16 bytes of struct xsk_tx_metadata. Reject the request when the registered metadata area does not contain the complete field. Snapshot the validated flags for the generic transmit path and use that snapshot for request and completion processing, avoiding inconsistent decisions if user space changes the flags concurrently. Note that only xsk_skb_metadata is properly using the flags, __xsk_buff_get_metadata ignores them. Next commits address that.

2026-08-03xsk: clear metadata pointer when no timestamp is requestedStanislav Fomichev1-4/+10
User space can change metadata flags after request processing. Rereading them during completion can therefore make the kernel write a timestamp that was not requested when the packet was submitted. Clear the metadata pointer during request processing unless timestamp completion is requested. Completion handling can then use the pointer itself instead of rereading the flags. On the mlx5 multi-packet WQE path metadata is evaluated per batch: xsk_tx_metadata_request() runs only for the descriptor that starts a session, just like the checksum offload that is applied once through the shared WQE. Only that descriptor's pointer is reset, so completion handling can record a timestamp for the other descriptors of the session regardless of their own XDP_TXMD_FLAGS_TIMESTAMP bit. The write stays inside the metadata area; the single-WQE, other zero-copy, and generic paths reset the pointer per descriptor and are unaffected.

2026-08-03xsk: pass TX metadata pointer by referenceStanislav Fomichev2-4/+6
Completion handling needs to know whether a timestamp was requested when the metadata was processed. Let xsk_tx_metadata_request() update the caller's metadata pointer so that decision can be carried forward without rereading user-controlled flags. This only changes the interface; behavior remains unchanged.

2026-08-03usb: core: Add quirk for 255-bytes initial config readNikhil Solanke1-0/+3
Certain third-party USB game controllers exposing (or spoofing) an Xbox 360-compatible interface (VID:PID 045e:028e) fail to enumerate under Linux. The device disconnects from the bus without responding to the initial GET_DESCRIPTOR(CONFIGURATION) request, and the kernel logs 'unable to read config index 0 descriptor/start: -71'. The device then falls back to a secondary Android HID mode (with a different VID:PID), losing XInput functionality including rumble support. The failure reproduces across multiple machines, host controller types, and kernel versions including current mainline and LTS. The device enumerates correctly and remains in XInput mode under Windows. Notably, the device enumerates correctly in Android mode when the same 9-byte request is issued for that mode's configuration descriptor, confirming the firmware bug is specific to the XInput mode. usbmon traces from Linux and Wireshark/USBPcap traces from Windows are identical up to the point of failure, with no visible protocol-level difference explaining the divergence. The root cause was identified when Michal Pecio discovered via a QEMU bus-level capture that Windows does not use wLength=9 for the initial config descriptor request; it uses wLength=255. Alan Stern subsequently confirmed this with a bus analyzer on a different USB 2.0 device, and Michal verified the behavior goes back to Windows 95 OSR2.1. So, add a new quirk flag USB_QUIRK_WINDOWS_CONFIG_REQ_SIZE which causes usb_get_configuration() to issue a 255 byte sized configuration request instead of USB_DT_CONFIG_SIZE (9) for the initial GET_DESCRIPTOR(CONFIGURATION) request, mimicking long-standing Windows behavior. This patch intentionally does not add any new VID:PID entries using this quirk. Some affected Xbox 360-compatible controllers spoof Microsoft's VID:PID, while genuine Microsoft controllers already enumerate correctly and do not require this quirk. Other affected clone devices use their own VID:PID pairs and can be added individually as they are identified.

An entry registered with 'F' opens its interpreter at registration time and holds that file until the entry is freed, so an entry nobody removes by hand is only closed once the binfmt_misc superblock is shut down. If the interpreter lives on a mount that keeps that superblock alive the two pin each other and the file is never closed. That's reachable by pointing the interpreter at the instance itself or by using the instance as an overlayfs lower layer, and once the mount namespace is gone there's nothing left to unregister through either. - Restore write access when removing an entry. Registering with the MISC_FMT_OPEN_FILE flag opens the interpreter via open_exec() which denies write access for as long as the entry exists, but removal only did filp_close() and never restored it. The inode's i_writecount stayed permanently negative and opening the interpreter for writing kept failing with ETXTBSY long after the entry was gone. - Use exe_file_deny_write_access() for the interpreter clone so both sides base their decision on the same mode. - Reject a flag character as the field delimiter. create_entry() pads the buffer with the delimiter so the field parsers terminate even on a truncated string, but check_special_flags() consumes flag characters instead of scanning for the delimiter. If the delimiter is itself a flag character the padding stops acting as a terminator and the scan keeps reading past the end of the allocation. Such a registration was always rejected, just only after the out of bounds read has already happened. - Don't leak the user namespace when the mount fails. bm_get_tree() hands its reference to get_tree_keyed() and sget_fc() moves it into sb->s_fs_info, but generic_shutdown_super() only calls ->put_super() from inside the if (sb->s_root) branch and bm_fill_super() can fail before either s_root or s_op is in place.
