commit 4b44f2d1 upstream. The Hyper-V Linux Integration Services use the VMBus implementation for communication with the Hypervisor. VMBus registers its own interrupt handler that completely bypasses the common Linux interrupt handling. This implies that the interrupt entropy collector is not triggered. This patch adds the interrupt entropy collection callback into the VMBus interrupt handler function.

commit a246b819 upstream. NBANK() macro assumes that ngpios is a multiple of 8(BANK_SZ) and hence results in 0 banks for PCA9536 which has just 4 gpios. This is wrong as PCA9356 has 1 bank with 4 gpios. This results in uninitialized PCA953X_INVERT register. Fix this by using DIV_ROUND_UP macro in NBANK().

commit 0e0e3677 upstream. It seems risky to always rely on the caller to ensure the socket's address family is correct before passing it to the NetLabel kAPI, especially since we see at least one LSM which didn't.

commit 260916df upstream. When we postpone a broadcast packet we save the source port in the skb if it is local. However, the source port can disappear before we get a chance to process the packet. This patch fixes this by holding a ref count on the netdev. It also delays the skb->cb modification until after we allocate the new skb as you should not modify shared skbs.

commit 67f8ecc5 upstream. Many devices use userspace bluetooth stacks like BlueZ or Bluedroid in combination with uhid. If any of these stacks is used with a HID device for which the driver performs a HID request as part .probe (or technically another HID operation), this results in a deadlock situation. The deadlock results in a 5 second timeout for I/O operations in HID drivers, so isn't fatal, but none of the I/O operations have a chance of succeeding. The root cause for the problem is that uhid only allows for one request to be processed at a time per uhid instance and locks out other operations. This means that if a user space is creating a new HID device through 'UHID_CREATE', which ultimately triggers '.probe' through the HID layer. Then any HID request e.g. a read for calibration data would trigger a HID operation on uhid again, but it won't go out to userspace, because it is still stuck in UHID_CREATE. In addition bluetooth stacks are typically single threaded, so they wouldn't be able to handle any requests while waiting on uhid. Lucikly the UHID spec is somewhat flexible and allows for fixing the issue, without breaking user space. The idea which the patch implements as discussed with David Herrmann is to decouple adding of a hid device (which triggers .probe) from UHID_CREATE. The work will kick off roughly once UHID_CREATE completed (or else will wait a tiny bit of time in .probe for a lock). A HID driver has to call HID to call 'hid_hw_start()' as part of .probe once it is ready for I/O, which triggers UHID_START to user space. Any HID operations should function now within .probe and won't deadlock because userspace is stuck on UHID_CREATE. We verified this patch on Bluedroid with Android 6.0 and on desktop Linux with BlueZ stacks. Prior to the patch they had the deadlock issue.

commit eef0df6a upstream. The number of bits, nbits, is calculated in mpi_read_raw_data() as follows: nbits = nbytes * 8; Afterwards, the number of leading zero bits of the first byte get subtracted: nbits -= count_leading_zeros(buffer[0]); However, count_leading_zeros() takes an unsigned long and thus, the u8 gets promoted to an unsigned long. Thus, the above doesn't subtract the number of leading zeros in the most significant nonzero input byte from nbits, but the number of leading zeros of the most significant nonzero input byte promoted to unsigned long, i.e. BITS_PER_LONG - 8 too many. Fix this by subtracting count_leading_zeros(...) - (BITS_PER_LONG - 8) from nbits only.

commit 19be0eaf upstream. This is an ancient bug that was actually attempted to be fixed once (badly) by me eleven years ago in commit 4ceb5db9 ("Fix get_user_pages() race for write access") but that was then undone due to problems on s390 by commit f33ea7f4 ("fix get_user_pages bug"). In the meantime, the s390 situation has long been fixed, and we can now fix it by checking the pte_dirty() bit properly (and do it better). The s390 dirty bit was implemented in abf09bed ("s390/mm: implement software dirty bits") which made it into v3.9. Earlier kernels will have to look at the page state itself. Also, the VM has become more scalable, and what used a purely theoretical race back then has become easier to trigger. To fix it, we introduce a new internal FOLL_COW flag to mark the "yes, we already did a COW" rather than play racy games with FOLL_WRITE that is very fundamental, and then use the pte dirty flag to validate that the FOLL_COW flag is still valid.

commit d26e2c9f upstream. This partially reverts commit 1086bbe9 ("netfilter: ensure number of counters is >0 in do_replace()") in net/bridge/netfilter/ebtables.c. Setting rules with ebtables does not work any more with 1086bbe9 place. There is an error message and no rules set in the end. e.g. ~# ebtables -t nat -A POSTROUTING --src 12:34:56:78:9a:bc -j DROP Unable to update the kernel. Two possible causes: 1. Multiple ebtables programs were executing simultaneously.

commit 09d96860 upstream. This looks like refactoring, but its also a bug fix. Problem is that the compat path (32bit iptables, 64bit kernel) lacks a few sanity tests that are done in the normal path. For example, we do not check for underflows and the base chain policies. While its possible to also add such checks to the compat path, its more copy&pastry, for instance we cannot reuse check_underflow() helper as e->target_offset differs in the compat case. Other problem is that it makes auditing for validation errors harder; two places need to be checked and kept in sync. At a high level 32 bit compat works like this: 1- initial pass over blob: validate match/entry offsets, bounds checking lookup all matches and targets do bookkeeping wrt. size delta of 32/64bit structures assign match/target.u.kernel pointer (points at kernel implementation, needed to access ->compatsize etc.) 2- allocate memory according to the total bookkeeping size to contain the translated ruleset 3- second pass over original blob: for each entry, copy the 32bit representation to the newly allocated memory. This also does any special match translations (e.g. adjust 32bit to 64bit longs, etc). 4- check if ruleset is free of loops (chase all jumps) 5-first pass over translated blob: call the checkentry function of all matches and targets. The alternative implemented by this patch is to drop steps 3&4 from the compat process, the translation is changed into an intermediate step rather than a full 1:1 translate_table replacement. In the 2nd pass (step #3), change the 64bit ruleset back to a kernel representation, i.e. put() the kernel pointer and restore ->u.user.name . This gets us a 64bit ruleset that is in the format generated by a 64bit iptables userspace -- we can then use translate_table() to get the 'native' sanity checks. This has two drawbacks: 1. we re-validate all the match and target entry structure sizes even though compat translation is supposed to never generate bogus offsets. 2. we put and then re-lookup each match and target. THe upside is that we get all sanity tests and ruleset validations provided by the normal path and can remove some duplicated compat code. iptables-restore time of autogenerated ruleset with 300k chains of form -A CHAIN0001 -m limit --limit 1/s -j CHAIN0002 -A CHAIN0002 -m limit --limit 1/s -j CHAIN0003 shows no noticeable differences in restore times: old: 0m30.796s new: 0m31.521s 64bit: 0m25.674s Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> [bwh: Backported to 3.16: deleted code is a little different] Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>

commit 7b7eba0f upstream. Quoting John Stultz: In updating a 32bit arm device from 4.6 to Linus' current HEAD, I noticed I was having some trouble with networking, and realized that /proc/net/ip_tables_names was suddenly empty. Digging through the registration process, it seems we're catching on the: if (strcmp(t->u.user.name, XT_STANDARD_TARGET) == 0 && target_offset + sizeof(struct xt_standard_target) != next_offset) return -EINVAL; Where next_offset seems to be 4 bytes larger then the offset + standard_target struct size. next_offset needs to be aligned via XT_ALIGN (so we can access all members of ip(6)t_entry struct). This problem didn't show up on i686 as it only needs 4-byte alignment for u64, but iptables userspace on other 32bit arches does insert extra padding.

commit 7ed2abdd upstream. We have targets and standard targets -- the latter carries a verdict. The ip/ip6tables validation functions will access t->verdict for the standard targets to fetch the jump offset or verdict for chainloop detection, but this happens before the targets get checked/validated. Thus we also need to check for verdict presence here, else t->verdict can point right after a blob. Spotted with UBSAN while testing malformed blobs.

This field is not bounds checked prior to writing a counter value at the supplied offset. Base chains enforce absolute verdict. User defined chains are supposed to end with an unconditional return, xtables userspace adds them automatically. But if such return is missing we will move to non-existent next rule.

commit 75ff39cc upstream. Yue Cao claims that current host rate limiting of challenge ACKS (RFC 5961) could leak enough information to allow a patient attacker to hijack TCP sessions. He will soon provide details in an academic paper. This patch increases the default limit from 100 to 1000, and adds some randomization so that the attacker can no longer hijack sessions without spending a considerable amount of probes. Based on initial analysis and patch from Linus. Note that we also have per socket rate limiting, so it is tempting to remove the host limit in the future. v2: randomize the count of challenge acks per second, not the period.

commit 43761473 upstream. There is a double fetch problem in audit_log_single_execve_arg() where we first check the execve(2) argumnets for any "bad" characters which would require hex encoding and then re-fetch the arguments for logging in the audit record[1]. Of course this leaves a window of opportunity for an unsavory application to munge with the data. This patch reworks things by only fetching the argument data once[2] into a buffer where it is scanned and logged into the audit records(s). In addition to fixing the double fetch, this patch improves on the original code in a few other ways: better handling of large arguments which require encoding, stricter record length checking, and some performance improvements (completely unverified, but we got rid of some strlen() calls, that's got to be a good thing). As part of the development of this patch, I've also created a basic regression test for the audit-testsuite, the test can be tracked on GitHub at the following link: * https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-testsuite/issues/25 [1] If you pay careful attention, there is actually a triple fetch problem due to a strnlen_user() call at the top of the function. [2] This is a tiny white lie, we do make a call to strnlen_user() prior to fetching the argument data. I don't like it, but due to the way the audit record is structured we really have no choice unless we copy the entire argument at once (which would require a rather wasteful allocation). The good news is that with this patch the kernel no longer relies on this strnlen_user() value for anything beyond recording it in the log, we also update it with a trustworthy value whenever possible.

commit 532c34b5 upstream. The sclp_ctl_ioctl_sccb function uses two copy_from_user calls to retrieve the sclp request from user space. The first copy_from_user fetches the length of the request which is stored in the first two bytes of the request. The second copy_from_user gets the complete sclp request, but this copies the length field a second time. A malicious user may have changed the length in the meantime.

commit 93d17397 upstream. It turns out that if the guest does a H_CEDE while the CPU is in a transactional state, and the H_CEDE does a nap, and the nap loses the architected state of the CPU (which is is allowed to do), then we lose the checkpointed state of the virtual CPU. In addition, the transactional-memory state recorded in the MSR gets reset back to non-transactional, and when we try to return to the guest, we take a TM bad thing type of program interrupt because we are trying to transition from non-transactional to transactional with a hrfid instruction, which is not permitted. The result of the program interrupt occurring at that point is that the host CPU will hang in an infinite loop with interrupts disabled. Thus this is a denial of service vulnerability in the host which can be triggered by any guest (and depending on the guest kernel, it can potentially triggered by unprivileged userspace in the guest). This vulnerability has been assigned the ID CVE-2016-5412. To fix this, we save the TM state before napping and restore it on exit from the nap, when handling a H_CEDE in real mode. The case where H_CEDE exits to host virtual mode is already OK (as are other hcalls which exit to host virtual mode) because the exit path saves the TM state.

The only code changes here are (a) saving and restore LR on the stack, since these new procedures get called with a bl instruction, (b) explicitly saving r1 into the PACA instead of assuming that HSTATE_HOST_R1(r13) is already set, and (c) removing an unnecessary and redundant setting of MSR[TM] that should have been removed by commit 9d4d0bdd9e0a ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Add transactional memory support", 2013-09-24) but wasn't.
