platform/x86: asus-wmi: fix resource leaks on probe failure
During driver initialization in asus_wmi_add(), various subsystems are
registered sequentially. However, the error path labels are out of order
relative to the registration sequence.
Specifically:
1. If asus_wmi_custom_fan_curve_init() fails, the driver jumps to
fail_custom_fan_curve. Because this label is placed below fail_sysfs,
it bypasses the cleanup calls for the input device and sysfs groups,
which were successfully registered before, leaking those resources.
2. If asus_screenpad_init() fails, the driver jumps to fail_screenpad.
Because fail_screenpad is placed below fail_backlight, it bypasses the
cleanup calls for backlight and rfkill, leaking those resources.
Fix these resource leaks by reordering the error path labels in
asus_wmi_add() to match the exact reverse order of the resource
allocations. |

wifi: nl80211: clean up color-change beacon data on errors
nl80211_color_change() calls nl80211_parse_beacon() for the beacon_next
template, which can allocate params.beacon_next.mbssid_ies and .rnr_ies.
A parsing failure returned directly instead of using the out: cleanup,
leaking any allocations completed before the error.
Allocate the nested attribute table before parsing beacon_next. Its
allocation failure can then return before beacon data exists, while a
later parsing failure uses out: to release the parsed data. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: logitech-hidpp: Fix FF device cleanup on init failure
hidpp_ff_init() creates the input force-feedback device with
input_ff_create(), then allocates the HID++ FF private data,
effect ID array, and workqueue.
If any of those allocations fail after input_ff_create() succeeds,
the function returns an error without destroying the FF device.
Add an unwind path that frees the private allocations made by
hidpp_ff_init() and calls input_ff_destroy() for failures after
input_ff_create() succeeds. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFS: Return a delegation the client fails to record
When an NFS server grants a delegation in an OPEN reply,
nfs_inode_set_delegation() records it on the client. However, three
of its error flows return without sending DELEGRETURN.
A delegation can be relinquished only by DELEGRETURN (RFC 8881
Section 20.2.4), so dropping one silently leaves the server believing
the client still holds it. If the server happens to recall that
delegation, the client answers CB_RECALL with NFS4ERR_BADHANDLE
because it has no record of the stateid. The server revokes the
delegation and moves it onto its cl_revoked list, because the client
never sends the FREE_STATEID that would drain it. Every subsequent
SEQUENCE reply then carries SEQ4_STATUS_RECALLABLE_STATE_REVOKED,
and the client's state manager loops issuing TEST_STATEID across its
delegations without ever clearing the condition.
The window is easy to reach now that a server offers a write
delegation on any write OPEN: a delegation recalled for one opener
races a re-open that the server answers with a fresh write
delegation.
Instead of dropping it, hand the delegation back during these error
flows. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix request buffer leak in smb2_new_read_req()
smb2_new_read_req() allocates the request buffer with
smb2_plain_req_init() but only publishes it to the caller with
*buf = req at the very end of the function. Two error returns sit in
between:
rc = smb2_plain_req_init(SMB2_READ, io_parms->tcon, server,
(void **) &req, total_len);
if (rc)
return rc;
if (server == NULL)
return -ECONNABORTED;
[...]
rdata->mr = smbd_register_mr(server->smbd_conn,
&rdata->subreq.io_iter,
true, need_invalidate);
if (!rdata->mr)
return -EAGAIN;
On either of them the buffer is neither released nor handed back, so
it is leaked. The caller cannot clean up after it: smb2_async_readv()
does 'goto out' on a non-zero return, which skips the
cifs_small_buf_release(buf) at async_readv_out, and buf has not been
assigned at that point in any case.
The write path has never had this problem. smb2_async_writev()
registers the memory region inline and jumps to its release label
instead of returning:
wdata->mr = smbd_register_mr(...);
if (!wdata->mr) {
rc = -EAGAIN;
goto async_writev_out;
}
Commit b7972092199f ("cifs: smbd: Retry on memory registration
failure") changed both sides from -ENOBUFS to -EAGAIN in a single
patch, which puts the two shapes next to each other.
Only the -EAGAIN return is reachable in practice, because
smb2_plain_req_init() calls smb2_reconnect() first and that already
fails with -EIO when server is NULL, before anything is allocated.
Both returns are given the same treatment here rather than leaving
one of them correct only by accident.
Because -EAGAIN is a replayable error, the failure also reaches the
retry block at the end of smb2_async_readv(), which marks the
subrequest NETFS_SREQ_NEED_RETRY, so a failing registration can be
retried rather than ending the I/O, and every attempt that reaches it
leaks another buffer. smb2_should_replay() short-circuits on
tcon->retry, so on a hard mount the attempt count is not bounded by
the retrans setting.
Only the asynchronous read path is affected. The synchronous
SMB2_read() caller passes rdata == NULL and the memory registration
block is guarded on rdata.
The memory registration failure path was pointed out by the Sashiko
AI reviewer while it was reviewing an unrelated patch to
smb2_async_readv(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix extent map leak in NOCOW direct I/O write
btrfs_dio_iomap_begin() calls btrfs_get_extent(), which returns an
extent map reference that must be dropped on all exit paths.
For direct writes into a NOCOW range, btrfs_get_blocks_direct_write()
keeps using that extent map and asks btrfs_create_dio_extent() to
allocate the ordered extent. If that fails, for example because
btrfs_alloc_ordered_extent() fails, the function returns the error
without dropping the input extent map. The PREALLOC path avoided this by
dropping the input extent map before replacing it with the newly created
one.
Check the error from btrfs_create_dio_extent() before replacing the
map and drop the input extent map on failure. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
SUNRPC: reject duplicate CREDS_VALUE options
gssx_dec_option_array() walks the wire-supplied option array and, for
every entry whose name matches CREDS_VALUE, calls
gssx_dec_linux_creds() on the same struct svc_cred. That helper
unconditionally installs a fresh groups_alloc() result into
creds->cr_group_info without releasing whatever pointer was already
there:
for (i = 0; i < count; i++) {
... decode name ...
if (length == sizeof(CREDS_VALUE) &&
memcmp(p, CREDS_VALUE, sizeof(CREDS_VALUE)) == 0) {
err = gssx_dec_linux_creds(xdr, creds);
...
}
}
A reply that carries two CREDS_VALUE entries therefore overwrites
cr_group_info on the second iteration and orphans the group_info
allocated by the first call. The earlier free_creds path only
releases the last cr_group_info via free_svc_cred(), so the first
allocation's refcount stays at one and its kvmalloc-backed storage
is leaked. No in-tree caller of gssp_accept_sec_context_upcall()
expects more than one CREDS_VALUE per reply.
Fix by tracking whether a CREDS_VALUE option has already been
decoded and returning -EINVAL on any subsequent match, so the
free_creds path releases the single group_info that was installed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
svcrdma: Reject connection when transport allocation fails
handle_connect_req() returns without action when
svc_rdma_create_xprt() fails to allocate the new transport.
The CM core returns 0 for CONNECT_REQUEST events, so it does
not destroy the new rdma_cm_id. Each allocation failure under
memory pressure leaks one rdma_cm_id, and a remote peer driving
connection attempts can amplify this.
Reject the connection by returning a non-zero status from the
CM event handler, which tells the CM core to destroy the
orphaned cm_id. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
svcrdma: Use svc_xprt_put to free listener on create failure
svc_rdma_create() calls kfree(cma_xprt) when
svc_rdma_create_listen_id() fails. svc_xprt_init() has already
acquired a net namespace reference via get_net_track(); kfree
bypasses svc_xprt_free() which releases it.
Replace the kfree() with svc_xprt_put() so the kref_init birth
reference drops to zero and svc_xprt_free() dispatches
svc_rdma_free() to clean up properly. sc_cm_id is still NULL
at that point; the preceding patch added the necessary NULL
guard in svc_rdma_free().
svc_xprt_free() also drops the module reference via
module_put(), but the caller _svc_xprt_create() does the same
on xpo_create failure, double-putting the single
try_module_get() it acquired. Take a compensating
__module_get() before the svc_xprt_put() to keep the count
balanced, matching the convention in svc_rdma_accept()'s error
path. |

platform/x86: int1092: Fix potential memory leak in sar_probe()
The memory allocated for device_mode_info in parse_package() called by
sar_get_data() is not freed in some of the error paths in sar_probe().
Fix that by converting to use device managed allocations. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: l2tp: do not propagate multicast notification errors
The tunnel create, tunnel modify, session create, and session modify
netlink handlers send multicast notifications through helpers that can fail
while allocating or encoding a message, or while multicasting it.
For tunnel and session create/modify, a notification is sent after the live
operation has completed. Returning a best-effort notification error as the
command result can therefore report failure for an operation that already
committed and can cause callers to retry and accumulate live objects.
Keep sending notifications for listener visibility, but do not propagate
their best-effort status as the command result. This also keeps the tunnel
modify command consistent with the other notification-only paths. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: thunderbolt: Release the Rx HopID that was handed out on mismatch
tb_xdomain_alloc_in_hopid() passes the wanted HopID to ida_alloc_range()
as the lower bound, so a taken id is not an error there: the allocator
returns the next free one above it. tbnet_connected_work() asks for the
peer's transmit path, treats any other id as a failure and returns
without releasing what it got, so that allocation stays live for the rest
of the XDomain connection with nothing left holding a reference to it.
Release the id when it is not the one we asked for, the same way the
error unwind at the end of the function releases the expected one. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mfd: sm501: Fix potential memory leaks during remove
The memory allocated for struct sm501_devdata in sm501_pci_probe() and
sm501_plat_probe() is not freed by the corresponding remove functions
sm501_pci_remove() and sm501_plat_remove(). Fix that by adding a call to
kfree(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: iwlwifi: dvm: fix memory leak in iwl_op_mode_dvm_start()
In iwl_op_mode_dvm_start(), jumping to out_free_eeprom currently bypasses
the out_free_eeprom_blob label. Consequently, error paths triggered after
successfully parsing the EEPROM free priv->nvm_data but leak
priv->eeprom_blob.
Fix this memory leak by reordering the error handling labels so
that out_free_eeprom falls through to out_free_eeprom_blob.
The bug was first flagged by an experimental analysis tool we are
developing for kernel memory-management bugs while analyzing
v6.13-rc1. The tool is still under development and is not yet publicly
available. Manual inspection confirms that the bug is still
present in v7.1-rc6.
An x86_64 allyesconfig build showed no new warnings. As we do not have
supported Intel DVM wireless hardware and firmware to test with, no
runtime testing was able to be performed. |

ieee802154: Avoid calling WARN_ON() on -ENOMEM in cfg802154_switch_netns()
It's pointless to call WARN_ON() in case of an allocation failure in
dev_change_net_namespace() and device_rename(), since it only leads to
useless splats caused by deliberate fault injections, so avoid it.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Syzkaller. |

s390/vfio_ccw: Limit the number of channel program segments
The processing of channel programs, and the CCWs within them, is done
recursively. As such, there is an arbitrary (but not architectural)
limit to the number of CCWs that can exist in a single channel program.
The vfio-ccw logic breaks these channel programs into segments whenever
it encounters a Transfer-In-Channel (TIC) CCW, and the combined number
of segments count towards the global limit. Impose an equivalent limit
to the number of segments until such logic can be made non-recursive. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vhost_iotlb: bound map allocation in add_range
vhost_iotlb_add_range_ctx() only retires an old entry when the table
has a non-zero limit, has exactly reached that limit and has
VHOST_IOTLB_FLAG_RETIRE set. Non-retiring tables can keep allocating
entries after reaching their configured limit.
Existing vhost devices allocate their IOTLB with max_iotlb_entries from
vhost.c, which defaults to 2048 and is tunable by module parameter. Use
the caller-provided limit at the allocation point instead of adding a
separate default in the common IOTLB helper, and reject non-positive
values in vhost paths that can report an error.
Other vhost IOTLB users should not create zero-limit tables when entries
can be populated from userspace or guest-controlled requests. Add
caller-side max_iotlb_entries parameters for mlx5 vDPA, VDUSE and
vhost-vDPA. Reject non-positive VDUSE and vhost-vDPA values, and require
at least two entries for vdpa_sim and mlx5 vDPA paths that install
full-range mappings, since those mappings are split into two IOTLB
entries.
Handle full-range mappings in the common helper by checking that the
IOTLB can hold both split entries before inserting the first half. This
avoids returning an error after leaving a half mapping behind.
When the table is full, keep the existing retire behavior for retiring
tables and return -ENOSPC for non-retiring tables. Reuse the retired map
node instead of freeing it and allocating a replacement, so a stream of
IOTLB updates cannot keep forcing GFP_ATOMIC allocations after the table
has reached its limit. If a zero-limit IOTLB still reaches the common
helper, treat it as a configuration error and return -EINVAL.
I found this bug myself, though the patch was written with AI assistance. |

net: udp_tunnel: fix memory leak in udp_tunnel_nic_unregister()
syzbot reported a memory leak [1] in the UDP tunnel NIC offload code.
When device registration fails (e.g. in register_netdevice()), netdev core
unwinds by sending a single NETDEV_UNREGISTER notification. If work was queued
during NETDEV_REGISTER (utn->work_pending is set), udp_tunnel_nic_unregister()
returns early:
if (utn->work_pending)
return;
Because failed registrations do not enter netdev_wait_allrefs_any(), no
subsequent NETDEV_UNREGISTER rebroadcast will ever occur. As a result, the
struct udp_tunnel_nic allocated in udp_tunnel_nic_alloc() is leaked
permanently.
Fix this by removing the early return. Instead, synchronously cancel any
pending work with cancel_delayed_work_sync() before freeing @utn.
To be able to call cancel_delayed_work_sync() while holding RTNL (the work also
needs RTNL), switch udp_tunnel_nic_device_sync_work() to rtnl_trylock(). If RTNL
is contended, requeue the work with a 1 jiffy delay (via queue_delayed_work())
to prevent high CPU contention while waiting for RTNL lock.
The utn->work_pending bookkeeping is no longer needed and is removed, as
the workqueue core already tracks the pending/running state of the work.

IB/mlx5: Fix transport-domain rollback and initialize lb mutex earlier
mlx5_ib_alloc_transport_domain() allocates a transport domain and then
