commit e81ca6fe upstream. If the queue is dead blk_execute_rq_nowait() doesn't invoke the done() callback function. That will result in blk_execute_rq() being stuck in wait_for_completion(). Avoid this by initializing rq->end_io to the done() callback before we check the queue state. Also, make sure the queue lock is held around the invocation of the done() callback. Found this through source code review. Signed-off-by:

commit 8ba61435 upstream. blk_insert_cloned_request(), blk_execute_rq_nowait() and blk_flush_plug_list() either didn't check whether the queue was dead or did it without holding queue_lock. Update them so that dead state is checked while holding queue_lock. AFAICS, this plugs all holes (requeue doesn't matter as the request is transitioning atomically from in_flight to queued).

commit deede2fa upstream. When (de)configuring a vlan interface, the IFF_ALLMULTI ans IFF_PROMISC flags are cleared or set on the underlying interface. So, if these flags are changed on a vlan interface that is not up, the flags underlying interface might be set or cleared twice. Only propagating flag changes when a device is up makes sure this does not happen. It also makes sure that an underlying device is not set to promiscuous or allmulti mode for a vlan device that is down. Signed-off-by:

commit a722a419815ed203b519151f9556859ff256638b upstream The "new" fragmentation code (since my rewrite almost 5 years ago) erroneously sets skb->len rather than using skb_trim() to adjust the length of the first fragment after copying out all the others. This leaves the skb tail pointer pointing to after where the data originally ended, and thus causes the encryption MIC to be written at that point, rather than where it belongs: immediately after the data. The impact of this is that if software encryption is done, then a) encryption doesn't work for the first fragment, the connection becomes unusable as the first fragment will never be properly verified at the receiver, the MIC is practically guaranteed to be wrong b) we leak up to 8 bytes of plaintext (!) of the packet out into the air This is only mitigated by the fact that many devices are capable of doing encryption in hardware, in which case this can't happen as the tail pointer is irrelevant in that case. Additionally, fragmentation is not used very frequently and would normally have to be configured manually. Fix this by using skb_trim() properly.

commit a6e1af6f5e9e75095ae1b004f6f00082e5fc4d2d upstream An SCTP server doing ASCONF will panic on malformed INIT ping-of-death in the form of: ------------ INIT[PARAM: SET_PRIMARY_IP] ------------> While the INIT chunk parameter verification dissects through many things in order to detect malformed input, it misses to actually check parameters inside of parameters. E.g. RFC5061, section 4.2.4 proposes a 'set primary IP address' parameter in ASCONF, which has as a subparameter an address parameter. So an attacker may send a parameter type other than SCTP_PARAM_IPV4_ADDRESS or SCTP_PARAM_IPV6_ADDRESS, param_type2af() will subsequently return 0 and thus sctp_get_af_specific() returns NULL, too, which we then happily dereference unconditionally through af->from_addr_param().

commit b2d33ef40de7161c23032106284959ae75bdf3cd upstream This scenario is not limited to ASCONF, just taken as one example triggering the issue. When receiving ASCONF probes in the form of ... -------------- INIT[ASCONF; ASCONF_ACK] -------------> <----------- INIT-ACK[ASCONF; ASCONF_ACK] ------------ -------------------- COOKIE-ECHO --------------------> <-------------------- COOKIE-ACK --------------------- ---- ASCONF_a; [ASCONF_b; ...; ASCONF_n;] JUNK ------> [...] ---- ASCONF_m; [ASCONF_o; ...; ASCONF_z;] JUNK ------> ... where ASCONF_a, ASCONF_b, ..., ASCONF_z are good-formed ASCONFs and have increasing serial numbers, we process such ASCONF chunk(s) marked with !end_of_packet and !singleton, since we have not yet reached the SCTP packet end. SCTP does only do verification on a chunk by chunk basis, as an SCTP packet is nothing more than just a container of a stream of chunks which it eats up one by one. We could run into the case that we receive a packet with a malformed tail, above marked as trailing JUNK. All previous chunks are here goodformed, so the stack will eat up all previous chunks up to this point. In case JUNK does not fit into a chunk header and there are no more other chunks in the input queue, or in case JUNK contains a garbage chunk header, but the encoded chunk length would exceed the skb tail, or we came here from an entirely different scenario and the chunk has pdiscard=1 mark (without having had a flush point), it will happen, that we will excessively queue up the association's output queue (a correct final chunk may then turn it into a response flood when flushing the queue ;)): I ran a simple script with incremental ASCONF serial numbers and could see the server side consuming excessive amount of RAM [before/after: up to 2GB and more]. The issue at heart is that the chunk train basically ends with !end_of_packet and !singleton markers and since commit 2e3216cd ("sctp: Follow security requirement of responding with 1 packet") therefore preventing an output queue flush point in sctp_do_sm() -> sctp_cmd_interpreter() on the input chunk (chunk = event_arg) even though local_cork is set, but its precedence has changed since then. In the normal case, the last chunk with end_of_packet=1 would trigger the queue flush to accommodate possible outgoing bundling. In the input queue, sctp_inq_pop() seems to do the right thing in terms of discarding invalid chunks. So, above JUNK will not enter the state machine and instead be released and exit the sctp_assoc_bh_rcv() chunk processing loop. It's simply the flush point being missing at loop exit. Adding a try-flush approach on the output queue might not work as the underlying infrastructure might be long gone at this point due to the side-effect interpreter run. One possibility, albeit a bit of a kludge, would be to defer invalid chunk freeing into the state machine in order to possibly trigger packet discards and thus indirectly a queue flush on error. It would surely be better to discard chunks as in the current, perhaps better controlled environment, but going back and forth, it's simply architecturally not possible. I tried various trailing JUNK attack cases and it seems to look good now. Joint work with Vlad Yasevich.

commit 12b18fdbbda747ad22a7684413a6559b681e503c upstream When receiving a e.g. semi-good formed connection scan in the form of ... -------------- INIT[ASCONF; ASCONF_ACK] -------------> <----------- INIT-ACK[ASCONF; ASCONF_ACK] ------------ -------------------- COOKIE-ECHO --------------------> <-------------------- COOKIE-ACK --------------------- ---------------- ASCONF_a; ASCONF_b -----------------> ... where ASCONF_a equals ASCONF_b chunk (at least both serials need to be equal), we panic an SCTP server! The problem is that good-formed ASCONF chunks that we reply with ASCONF_ACK chunks are cached per serial. Thus, when we receive a same ASCONF chunk twice (e.g. through a lost ASCONF_ACK), we do not need to process them again on the server side (that was the idea, also proposed in the RFC). Instead, we know it was cached and we just resend the cached chunk instead. So far, so good. Where things get nasty is in SCTP's side effect interpreter, that is, sctp_cmd_interpreter(): While incoming ASCONF_a (chunk = event_arg) is being marked !end_of_packet and !singleton, and we have an association context, we do not flush the outqueue the first time after processing the ASCONF_ACK singleton chunk via SCTP_CMD_REPLY. Instead, we keep it queued up, although we set local_cork to 1. Commit 2e3216cd changed the precedence, so that as long as we get bundled, incoming chunks we try possible bundling on outgoing queue as well. Before this commit, we would just flush the output queue. Now, while ASCONF_a's ASCONF_ACK sits in the corked outq, we continue to process the same ASCONF_b chunk from the packet. As we have cached the previous ASCONF_ACK, we find it, grab it and do another SCTP_CMD_REPLY command on it. So, effectively, we rip the chunk->list pointers and requeue the same ASCONF_ACK chunk another time. Since we process ASCONF_b, it's correctly marked with end_of_packet and we enforce an uncork, and thus flush, thus crashing the kernel. Fix it by testing if the ASCONF_ACK is currently pending and if that is the case, do not requeue it. When flushing the output queue we may relink the chunk for preparing an outgoing packet, but eventually unlink it when it's copied into the skb right before transmission.

(commit 82262a46 upstream) There are two issues with the current implementation for replacing user controls. The first is that the code does not check if the control is actually a user control and neither does it check if the control is owned by the process that tries to remove it. That allows userspace applications to remove arbitrary controls, which can cause a user after free if a for example a driver does not expect a control to be removed from under its feed. The second issue is that on one hand when a control is replaced the user_ctl_count limit is not checked and on the other hand the user_ctl_count is increased (even though the number of user controls does not change). This allows userspace, once the user_ctl_count limit as been reached, to repeatedly replace a control until user_ctl_count overflows. Once that happens new controls can be added effectively bypassing the user_ctl_count limit. Both issues can be fixed by instead of open-coding the removal of the control that is to be replaced to use snd_ctl_remove_user_ctl(). This function does proper permission checks as well as decrements user_ctl_count after the control has been removed. Note that by using snd_ctl_remove_user_ctl() the check which returns -EBUSY at beginning of the function if the control already exists is removed. This is not a problem though since the check is quite useless, because the lock that is protecting the control list is released between the check and before adding the new control to the list, which means that it is possible that a different control with the same settings is added to the list after the check. Luckily there is another check that is done while holding the lock in snd_ctl_add(), so we'll rely on that to make sure that the same control is not added twice. Signed-off-by:

(commit 3cf521f7 upstream) The l2tp [get|set]sockopt() code has fallen back to the UDP functions for socket option levels != SOL_PPPOL2TP since day one, but that has never actually worked, since the l2tp socket isn't an inet socket. As David Miller points out: "If we wanted this to work, it'd have to look up the tunnel and then use tunnel->sk, but I wonder how useful that would be" Since this can never have worked so nobody could possibly have depended on that functionality, just remove the broken code and return -EINVAL.

It's possible for iretq to userspace to fail. This can happen because of a bad CS, SS, or RIP. Historically, we've handled it by fixing up an exception from iretq to land at bad_iret, which pretends that the failed iret frame was really the hardware part of #GP(0) from userspace. To make this work, there's an extra fixup to fudge the gs base into a usable state. This is suboptimal because it loses the original exception. It's also buggy because there's no guarantee that we were on the kernel stack to begin with. For example, if the failing iret happened on return from an NMI, then we'll end up executing general_protection on the NMI stack. This is bad for several reasons, the most immediate of which is that general_protection, as a non-paranoid idtentry, will try to deliver signals and/or schedule from the wrong stack. This patch throws out bad_iret entirely. As a replacement, it augments the existing swapgs fudge into a full-blown iret fixup, mostly written in C. It's should be clearer and more correct.

On a 32-bit kernel, this has no effect, since there are no IST stacks. On a 64-bit kernel, #SS can only happen in user code, on a failed iret to user space, a canonical violation on access via RSP or RBP, or a genuine stack segment violation in 32-bit kernel code. The first two cases don't need IST, and the latter two cases are unlikely fatal bugs, and promoting them to double faults would be fine. This fixes a bug in which the espfix64 code mishandles a stack segment violation. This saves 4k of memory per CPU and a tiny bit of code. Signed-off-by:

commit 8762e509 upstream. init_espfix_ap() is currently off by one level when informing hypervisor that allocated pages will be used for ministacks' page tables. The most immediate effect of this on a PV guest is that if 'stack_page = __get_free_page()' returns a non-zeroed-out page the hypervisor will refuse to use it for a page table (which it shouldn't be anyway). This will result in warnings by both Xen and Linux. More importantly, a subsequent write to that page (again, by a PV guest) is likely to result in fatal page fault. Signed-off-by:

commit 7209a75d upstream. This moves the espfix64 logic into native_iret. To make this work, it gets rid of the native patch for INTERRUPT_RETURN: INTERRUPT_RETURN on native kernels is now 'jmp native_iret'. This changes the 16-bit SS behavior on Xen from OOPSing to leaking some bits of the Xen hypervisor's RSP (I think). [ hpa: this is a nonzero cost on native, but probably not enough to measure. Xen needs to fix this in their own code, probably doing something equivalent to espfix64. ] Signed-off-by:

commit 3891a04a upstream. The IRET instruction, when returning to a 16-bit segment, only restores the bottom 16 bits of the user space stack pointer. This causes some 16-bit software to break, but it also leaks kernel state to user space. We have a software workaround for that ("espfix") for the 32-bit kernel, but it relies on a nonzero stack segment base which is not available in 64-bit mode. In checkin: b3b42ac2 x86-64, modify_ldt: Ban 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels we "solved" this by forbidding 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels, with the logic that 16-bit support is crippled on 64-bit kernels anyway (no V86 support), but it turns out that people are doing stuff like running old Win16 binaries under Wine and expect it to work. This works around this by creating percpu "ministacks", each of which is mapped 2^16 times 64K apart. When we detect that the return SS is on the LDT, we copy the IRET frame to the ministack and use the relevant alias to return to userspace. The ministacks are mapped readonly, so if IRET faults we promote #GP to #DF which is an IST vector and thus has its own stack; we then do the fixup in the #DF handler. (Making #GP an IST exception would make the msr_safe functions unsafe in NMI/MC context, and quite possibly have other effects.) Special thanks to: - Andy Lutomirski, for the suggestion of using very small stack slots and copy (as opposed to map) the IRET frame there, and for the suggestion to mark them readonly and let the fault promote to #DF. - Konrad Wilk for paravirt fixup and testing. - Borislav Petkov for testing help and useful comments.

commit 246f2d2e upstream. It is not safe to use LAR to filter when to go down the espfix path, because the LDT is per-process (rather than per-thread) and another thread might change the descriptors behind our back. Fortunately it is always *safe* (if a bit slow) to go down the espfix path, and a 32-bit LDT stack segment is extremely rare. Signed-off-by:

We have a software workaround for that ("espfix") for the 32-bit kernel, but it relies on a nonzero stack segment base which is not available in 32-bit mode. Since 16-bit support is somewhat crippled anyway on a 64-bit kernel (no V86 mode), and most (if not quite all) 64-bit processors support virtualization for the users who really need it, simply reject attempts at creating a 16-bit segment when running on top of a 64-bit kernel.

2.6.x kernels require a similar logic change as commit 2c0d6ac894a [sctp: not send SCTP_PEER_ADDR_CHANGE notifications with failed probe] introduces for newer kernels. Since the transport has always been in state SCTP_UNCONFIRMED, it therefore wasn't active before and hasn't been used before, and it always has been, so it is unnecessary to bug the user with a notification.

We did not check relocated directory in any way when processing Rock Ridge 'CL' tag. Thus a corrupted isofs image can possibly have a CL entry pointing to another CL entry leading to possibly unbounded recursion in kernel code and thus stack overflow or deadlocks (if there is a loop created from CL entries). Fix the problem by not allowing CL entry to point to a directory entry with CL entry (such use makes no good sense anyway) and by checking whether CL entry doesn't point to itself.

futex_wait_requeue_pi() calls futex_wait_setup(). If futex_wait_setup() succeeds it returns with hb->lock held and preemption disabled. Now the sanity check after this does: if (match_futex(&q.key, &key2)) { ret = -EINVAL; goto out_put_keys; } which releases the keys but does not release hb->lock. So we happily return to user space with hb->lock held and therefor preemption disabled. Unlock hb->lock before taking the exit route.

As ZTE have and will use more pid for new products this year, so we need to add some new zte 3g-dongle's pid on option.c , and delete one pid 0x0154 because it use for mass-storage port. Signed-off-by:
