This is the code

discard_ctl = &block_group->fs_info->discard_ctl;
lockdep_assert_held(&ctl->tree_lock);
We have a temporary free space ctl for loading the free space cache in
order to avoid having allocations happening while we're loading the
cache. When we hit an error we free it all up, however this also calls
btrfs_discard_update_discardable, which requires
block_group->free_space_ctl->tree_lock to be held. However this is our
temporary ctl so this lock isn't held. Fix this by calling
__btrfs_remove_free_space_cache_locked instead so that we only clean up
the entries and do not mess with the discardable stats. |

drm/sched: Fix deadlock in drm_sched_entity_kill_jobs_cb
The Mesa issue referenced below pointed out a possible deadlock:
[ 1231.611031] Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:
[ 1231.611033] CPU0 CPU1
[ 1231.611034] ---- ----
[ 1231.611035] lock(&xa->xa_lock#17);
[ 1231.611038] local_irq_disable();
[ 1231.611039] lock(&fence->lock);
[ 1231.611041] lock(&xa->xa_lock#17);
[ 1231.611044] <Interrupt>
[ 1231.611045] lock(&fence->lock);
[ 1231.611047]
*** DEADLOCK ***
In this example, CPU0 would be any function accessing job->dependencies
through the xa_* functions that don't disable interrupts (eg:
drm_sched_job_add_dependency(), drm_sched_entity_kill_jobs_cb()).
CPU1 is executing drm_sched_entity_kill_jobs_cb() as a fence signalling
callback so in an interrupt context. It will deadlock when trying to
grab the xa_lock which is already held by CPU0.
Replacing all xa_* usage by their xa_*_irq counterparts would fix
this issue, but Christian pointed out another issue: dma_fence_signal
takes fence.lock and so does dma_fence_add_callback.
dma_fence_signal() // locks f1.lock
-> drm_sched_entity_kill_jobs_cb()
-> foreach dependencies
-> dma_fence_add_callback() // locks f2.lock
This will deadlock if f1 and f2 share the same spinlock.
To fix both issues, the code iterating on dependencies and re-arming them
is moved out to drm_sched_entity_kill_jobs_work().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix potential UAF in smb2_close_cached_fid()
find_or_create_cached_dir() could grab a new reference after kref_put()
had seen the refcount drop to zero but before cfid_list_lock is acquired
in smb2_close_cached_fid(), leading to use-after-free.
Switch to kref_put_lock() so cfid_release() is called with
cfid_list_lock held, closing that gap. |

perf/core: Fix system hang caused by cpu-clock usage
cpu-clock usage by the async-profiler tool can trigger a system hang,
which got bisected back to the following commit by Octavia Togami:
18dbcbfabfff ("perf: Fix the POLL_HUP delivery breakage") causes this issue
The root cause of the hang is that cpu-clock is a special type of SW
event which relies on hrtimers. The __perf_event_overflow() callback
is invoked from the hrtimer handler for cpu-clock events, and
__perf_event_overflow() tries to call cpu_clock_event_stop()
to stop the event, which calls htimer_cancel() to cancel the hrtimer.
But that's a recursion into the hrtimer code from a hrtimer handler,
which (unsurprisingly) deadlocks.
To fix this bug, use hrtimer_try_to_cancel() instead, and set
the PERF_HES_STOPPED flag, which causes perf_swevent_hrtimer()
to stop the event once it sees the PERF_HES_STOPPED flag.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: NFSv4 file creation neglects setting ACL
An NFSv4 client that sets an ACL with a named principal during file
creation retrieves the ACL afterwards, and finds that it is only a
default ACL (based on the mode bits) and not the ACL that was
requested during file creation. This violates RFC 8881 section
6.4.1.3: "the ACL attribute is set as given".
The issue occurs in nfsd_create_setattr(), which calls
nfsd_attrs_valid() to determine whether to call nfsd_setattr().
However, nfsd_attrs_valid() checks only for iattr changes and
security labels, but not POSIX ACLs. When only an ACL is present,
the function returns false, nfsd_setattr() is skipped, and the
POSIX ACL is never applied to the inode.
Subsequently, when the client retrieves the ACL, the server finds
no POSIX ACL on the inode and returns one generated from the file's
mode bits rather than returning the originally-specified ACL. |

net: mscc: ocelot: Fix use-after-free caused by cyclic delayed work
The origin code calls cancel_delayed_work() in ocelot_stats_deinit()
to cancel the cyclic delayed work item ocelot->stats_work. However,
cancel_delayed_work() may fail to cancel the work item if it is already
executing. While destroy_workqueue() does wait for all pending work items
in the work queue to complete before destroying the work queue, it cannot
prevent the delayed work item from being rescheduled within the
ocelot_check_stats_work() function. This limitation exists because the
delayed work item is only enqueued into the work queue after its timer
expires. Before the timer expiration, destroy_workqueue() has no visibility
of this pending work item. Once the work queue appears empty,
destroy_workqueue() proceeds with destruction. When the timer eventually
expires, the delayed work item gets queued again, leading to the following
warning:

The following diagram reveals the cause of the above warning:
CPU 0 (remove) | CPU 1 (delayed work callback)
mscc_ocelot_remove() |
ocelot_deinit() | ocelot_check_stats_work()
ocelot_stats_deinit() |
cancel_delayed_work()| ...
| queue_delayed_work()
destroy_workqueue() | (wait a time)
| __queue_work() //UAF
The above scenario actually constitutes a UAF vulnerability.
The ocelot_stats_deinit() is only invoked when initialization
failure or resource destruction, so we must ensure that any
delayed work items cannot be rescheduled.
Replace cancel_delayed_work() with disable_delayed_work_sync()
to guarantee proper cancellation of the delayed work item and
ensure completion of any currently executing work before the
workqueue is deallocated.
A deadlock concern was considered: ocelot_stats_deinit() is called
in a process context and is not holding any locks that the delayed
work item might also need. Therefore, the use of the _sync() variant
is safe here.
This bug was identified through static analysis. To reproduce the
issue and validate the fix, I simulated ocelot-swit

thunderbolt: Fix use-after-free in tb_dp_dprx_work
The original code relies on cancel_delayed_work() in tb_dp_dprx_stop(),
which does not ensure that the delayed work item tunnel->dprx_work has
fully completed if it was already running. This leads to use-after-free
scenarios where tb_tunnel is deallocated by tb_tunnel_put(), while
tunnel->dprx_work remains active and attempts to dereference tb_tunnel
in tb_dp_dprx_work().
A typical race condition is illustrated below:
CPU 0 | CPU 1
tb_dp_tunnel_active() |
tb_deactivate_and_free_tunnel()| tb_dp_dprx_start()
tb_tunnel_deactivate() | queue_delayed_work()
tb_dp_activate() |
tb_dp_dprx_stop() | tb_dp_dprx_work() //delayed worker
cancel_delayed_work() |
tb_tunnel_put(tunnel); |
| tunnel = container_of(...); //UAF
| tunnel-> //UAF
Replacing cancel_delayed_work() with cancel_delayed_work_sync() is
not feasible as it would introduce a deadlock: both tb_dp_dprx_work()
and the cleanup path acquire tb->lock, and cancel_delayed_work_sync()
would wait indefinitely for the work item that cannot proceed.
Instead, implement proper reference counting:
- If cancel_delayed_work() returns true (work is pending), we release
the reference in the stop function.
- If it returns false (work is executing or already completed), the
reference is released in delayed work function itself.
This ensures the tb_tunnel remains valid during work item execution
while preventing memory leaks.
This bug was found by static analysis. |

This is the same problem outlined in 17b17fcd6d44 ("btrfs:
set_page_extent_mapped after read_folio in btrfs_cont_expand") , and the
fix is the same. I originally looked for the same pattern elsewhere in
our code, but mistakenly skipped over this code because I saw the page
cache readahead before we set_page_extent_mapped, not realizing that
this was only in the !page case, that we can still end up with a
!uptodate page and then do the btrfs_read_folio further down.
The fix here is the same as the above mentioned patch, move the
set_page_extent_mapped call to after the btrfs_read_folio() block to
make sure that we have the subpage blocksize stuff setup properly before
using the page. |

KVM: arm64: Fix debug checking for np-guests using huge mappings
When running with transparent huge pages and CONFIG_NVHE_EL2_DEBUG then
the debug checking in assert_host_shared_guest() fails on the launch of an
np-guest. This WARN_ON() causes a panic and generates the stack below.
In __pkvm_host_relax_perms_guest() the debug checking assumes the mapping

the size is not checked and just assumes the correct size.
While we're here make the same fix in __pkvm_host_mkyoung_guest().

| ntfs3 in the Linux kernel through 6.8.0 allows a physically proximate attacker to read kernel memory by mounting a filesystem (e.g., if a Linux distribution is configured to allow unprivileged mounts of removable media) and then leveraging local access to trigger an out-of-bounds read. A length value can be larger than the amount of memory allocated. NOTE: the supplier's perspective is that there is no vulnerability when an attack requires an attacker-modified filesystem image. |

w1: therm: Fix off-by-one buffer overflow in alarms_store
The sysfs buffer passed to alarms_store() is allocated with 'size + 1'
bytes and a NUL terminator is appended. However, the 'size' argument
does not account for this extra byte. The original code then allocated
'size' bytes and used strcpy() to copy 'buf', which always writes one
byte past the allocated buffer since strcpy() copies until the NUL
terminator at index 'size'.
Fix this by parsing the 'buf' parameter directly using simple_strtoll()
without allocating any intermediate memory or string copying. This
removes the overflow while simplifying the code. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
phy: stm32-usphyc: Fix off by one in probe()
The "index" variable is used as an index into the usbphyc->phys[] array
which has usbphyc->nphys elements. So if it is equal to usbphyc->nphys
then it is one element out of bounds. The "index" comes from the
device tree so it's data that we trust and it's unlikely to be wrong,
however it's obviously still worth fixing the bug. Change the > to >=. |

Christoph found out this is due to the poisoning code not dealing
properly with CONFIG_HIGHMEM because only the first page is mapped but
then the whole potentially high-order page is accessed.
We could give up on HIGHMEM here, but it's straightforward to fix this
with a loop that's mapping, poisoning or checking and unmapping
individual pages. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
posix-timers: Ensure timer ID search-loop limit is valid
posix_timer_add() tries to allocate a posix timer ID by starting from the
cached ID which was stored by the last successful allocation.
This is done in a loop searching the ID space for a free slot one by
one. The loop has to terminate when the search wrapped around to the
starting point.
But that's racy vs. establishing the starting point. That is read out
lockless, which leads to the following problem:
CPU0 CPU1
posix_timer_add()
start = sig->posix_timer_id;
lock(hash_lock);
... posix_timer_add()
if (++sig->posix_timer_id < 0)
start = sig->posix_timer_id;
sig->posix_timer_id = 0;
So CPU1 can observe a negative start value, i.e. -1, and the loop break
never happens because the condition can never be true:
if (sig->posix_timer_id == start)
break;
While this is unlikely to ever turn into an endless loop as the ID space is
huge (INT_MAX), the racy read of the start value caught the attention of
KCSAN and Dmitry unearthed that incorrectness.
Rewrite it so that all id operations are under the hash lock. |
