| In NLnetLabs Unbound 1.20.0 up to and including 1.26.0, a vulnerability on the 'serve-expired' code path can cause a double decrement on the 'wait-limit' counter per client IP essentially bypassing one of the counter measures that was introduced for DNSBomb (CVE-2024-33655). A malicious actor can exploit this by controlling an authoritative zone with short TTL, so cached entries expire quickly. Each 'slow' query, one the attacker's authoritative never answers, is followed by one query for an expired cached name, which is answered immediately via the 'serve-expired' path and decrements the counter twice. This second query was named 'pump'. By alternating slow queries and pumps, the attacker keeps the per-client counter at or below the configured 'wait-limit' indefinitely, and can hold an arbitrary number of pending queries from a single source IP, up to the global mesh quota (num-queries-per-thread); eventually bypassing one of the counter measures introduced for DNSBomb (CVE-2024-33655). This vulnerability is present on the 'serve-expired' code path. |
| Tor before 0.4.9.11 is prone to a use-after-free (and potential double free) of a conflux object when a recovery leg revives a conflux set whose last linked leg has already been closed. A malicious exit node could use this to crash a client. This is TROVE-2026-026. |

usb: gadget: midi2: remove default configfs groups on teardown
f_midi2_alloc_inst() creates default configfs child groups for the
default endpoint and default block using configfs_add_default_group(),
setting their internal refcount to 1.
However, during function teardown in f_midi2_free_inst() or EP cleanup
in f_midi2_ep_opts_release(), configfs_remove_default_groups() is
never called, therefore never dropping the refcount and leaking struct
f_midi2_ep_opts and f_midi2_block_opts.
Add the missing configfs_remove_default_groups() in the afformentioned
functions to free the structs properly. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: release path refs on follow_down() error
nfsd_cross_mnt() initializes a local struct path with mntget() and
dget() before calling follow_down(). On a negative return the error
arm jumps to out without releasing those references:
err = follow_down(&path, follow_flags);
if (err < 0)
goto out;
follow_down() never drops the caller's entry-time refs on any error
sub-case; for example a pre-cross d_manage() failure leaves path
untouched, so the mntget()/dget() taken on entry survive the call.
Every other early-exit arm in nfsd_cross_mnt() (other-namespace
return, IS_ERR(exp2), and the success tail after the swap) already
calls path_put(&path); the err < 0 arm is the lone omission. The
leak inflates mnt_count and d_count on each failed cross-mount,
blocking umount and pinning dentries against the shrinker, and is
reachable by any authenticated NFS client through nfsd_lookup_dentry
or the NFSv4 READDIR encode path.
Fix by calling path_put(&path) before the goto out in the err < 0
arm so the entry-time refs are released on all follow_down() error
returns. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: add fh_want_write() for early-verified SETATTR in nfsd_proc_setattr()
The BOTH_TIME_SET branch calls fh_verify() early so setattr_prepare()
can inspect the dentry. This causes nfsd_setattr() to skip
fh_want_write(), so notify_change() runs without a mount write
reference.
Add the missing fh_want_write() call after the early fh_verify(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm-era: fix shadowed superblock leak on take-snap failure
metadata_take_snap() bumps the live superblock refcount and then
dm_tm_shadow_block() allocates a new block for the metadata snapshot.
If the subsequent dm_sm_inc_block() of writeset_tree_root or
era_array_root fails, the function only unlocks the clone and
returns. The newly allocated shadow block is never returned to the
metadata space map, so each failed take-snap permanently leaks one
metadata block.
Free the clone with dm_sm_dec_block() on those error paths, matching
the final step of metadata_drop_snap(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
SUNRPC: wait for in-flight client TLS handshake callback
xs_tls_handshake_sync() gives xs_tls_handshake_done() a reference to the
lower transport before submitting the handshake request. On timeout or
signal, the synchronous waiter drops that reference after calling
tls_handshake_cancel().
handshake_req_cancel() returns false when handshake_complete() has
already marked the request complete. In that case the completion callback
can still be running, so dropping the callback-owned reference in the
waiter can free the lower transport before xs_tls_handshake_done() stores
xprt_err or drops its own reference.
If cancellation loses to completion, wait until xs_tls_handshake_done()
signals handshake_done and let the callback release its reference. This
mirrors the server-side handshake lifetime handling and keeps the timeout
or signal return value unchanged. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: fix socket refcount leak in smc_switch_conns()
smc_switch_conns() takes a reference on the SMC socket before dropping
lgr->conns_lock, so the connection stays alive while the CDC slot is
fetched:
sock_hold(&smc->sk);
read_unlock_bh(&lgr->conns_lock);
/* pre-fetch buffer outside of send_lock, might sleep */
rc = smc_cdc_get_free_slot(conn, to_lnk, &wr_buf, NULL, &pend);
if (rc)
goto err_out;
The err_out label only drops the wr_tx link reference, so this early exit
returns without the matching sock_put(). The second error exit is not
affected, because sock_put() has already run by then.
A leaked sk_refcnt means the smc_sock is never destroyed. Its send and
receive buffers stay allocated, and for a user socket the reference held
on the network namespace is never released, so the netns can no longer be
torn down.
smc_cdc_get_free_slot() fails when the target link goes down or when the
connection has been killed while the switch is in progress. Both are
reachable during the link failover this function implements, so the leak
is triggered by the same hardware events that make smc_switch_conns() run
in the first place.
Restructure so there is a single sock_put() covering both outcomes,
instead of adding a second one to the error path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvme: target: rdma: fix ndev refcount leak on queue connect
nvmet_rdma_queue_connect() calls nvmet_rdma_find_get_device() which
acquires a reference on the returned ndev via kref_get(). On the path
where the host queue backlog is exceeded and the function returns
NVME_SC_CONNECT_CTRL_BUSY, reference of ndev is not released, leaking
the kref.
Fix this by adding a goto to the existing put_device label before the
early return. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix use-after-free in smb2_open during durable reconnect
In smb2_open, the call to ksmbd_put_durable_fd(fp) drops the reference
to the durable file descriptor early during the durable reconnect
process. If an error occurs subsequently (eg, ksmbd_iov_pin_rsp fails)
or a scavenger accesses the file, it leads to a use-after-free when
accessing fp properties (eg fp->create_time).
Move the single put to the end of the function below err_out2 so fp
stays valid until smb2_open returns. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: pm: ADD_ADDR rtx: free sk if last
When an ADD_ADDR is retransmitted, the sk is held in sk_reset_timer(),
and released at the end.
If at that moment, it was the last reference being held, the sk would
not be freed. sock_put() should then be called instead of __sock_put().
But that's not enough: if it is the last reference, sock_put() will call
sk_free(), which will end up calling sk_stop_timer_sync() on the same
timer, and waiting indefinitely to finish. So it is needed to mark that
the timer is done at the end of the timer handler when it has not been
rescheduled, not to call sk_stop_timer_sync() on "itself". |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: pm: ADD_ADDR rtx: always decrease sk refcount
When an ADD_ADDR is retransmitted, the sk is held in sk_reset_timer().
It should then be released in all cases at the end.
Some (unlikely) checks were returning directly instead of calling
sock_put() to decrease the refcount. Jump to a new 'exit' label to call
__sock_put() (which will become sock_put() in the next commit) to fix
this potential leak.
While at it, drop the '!msk' check which cannot happen because it is
never reset, and explicitly mark the remaining one as "unlikely". |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: clear CALLBACK_RUNNING on failed delegation recall queue
nfsd_break_one_deleg() sets NFSD4_CALLBACK_RUNNING via test_and_set_bit
at entry to serialize recall work, then calls nfsd4_run_cb() to queue
the recall. When the queue attempt fails the refcount bump is undone,
but the RUNNING bit is left set. The only site that clears the bit is
nfsd41_destroy_cb() (fs/nfsd/nfs4callback.c), which runs from the
workqueue and is therefore unreachable when nothing was queued.
The bit becomes a permanent latch on dp->dl_recall.cb_flags: every
subsequent break_lease() on the same delegation hits the early-return
guard in nfsd_break_one_deleg() and silently skips the recall, so the
delegation is never broken and the conflicting open or lock stalls.
Fix by clearing NFSD4_CALLBACK_RUNNING on the !queued branch alongside
the refcount_dec. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix nfsd_file leak on inter-server COPY setup failure
When nfsd4_setup_inter_ssc() fails, nfsd4_copy() returns
nfserr_offload_denied directly, bypassing the out: label where
release_copy_files() would drop the nf_dst reference taken by
nfs4_preprocess_stateid_op(). Each failed inter-server COPY
leaks one nfsd_file, pinning file/inode/dentry/vfsmount.
Fix by setting status and jumping to out: instead of returning
directly. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: release OPEN-decoded posix ACLs via op_release
nfsd4_decode_createhow4() calls nfsd4_decode_fattr4(), which allocates
refcounted struct posix_acl objects via posix_acl_alloc() and stores
them in open->op_pacl and open->op_dpacl. These pointers must be
released once the OPEN compound finishes.
When nfsd4_decode_open_claim4() returns a non-seqid-mutating error,
the dispatcher short-circuits before op_func runs:
nfsd4_proc_compound()
if (op->status && op->opnum == OP_OPEN)
op->status = nfsd4_open_omfg(...)
if (!seqid_mutating_err(ntohl(op->status)))
return op->status; /* nfsd4_open() never runs */
...
opdesc->op_release(&op->u) /* must still release op_pacl/op_dpacl */
Before this change OP_OPEN had no .op_release in nfsd4_ops[], and the
release pair lived inside nfsd4_open() at its out_err: label. On the
short-circuit path nfsd4_open() is never invoked, so both posix_acl
refs leak on every malformed OPEN compound that carries valid POSIX
ACL createhow4 attributes.
Add nfsd4_open_release() and wire it as .op_release for OP_OPEN.
posix_acl_release() is NULL-safe, so the single release site covers
both the normal path and the nfsd4_open_omfg short-circuit. Remove
the matching posix_acl_release() pair from nfsd4_open()'s out_err:
label to avoid double-releasing.
The compound loop has two encoding branches: nfsd4_encode_operation()
for normal ops, and nfsd4_encode_replay() for v4.0 replayed ops.
op_release was only called from nfsd4_encode_operation(), so resources
attached to op->u leak on the replay path.
Move the op_release() call out of nfsd4_encode_operation() and the
replay branch, placing it after the if-else in nfsd4_proc_compound().
This gives a single call site in a fairly obviously-correct place,
covering both the normal encoding and replay paths. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ceph: fix leaked inode reference on writeback abort at umount
ceph_dirty_folio() takes a wrbuffer claim on each newly dirtied folio: it
bumps i_wrbuffer_ref (taking an ihold() on the 0->1 transition) and
attaches the snap_context to folio->private. That claim is released only
by ceph_put_wrbuffer_cap_refs(), which for a submitted write runs from
writepages_finish().
In ceph_submit_write(), if ceph_inc_osd_stopping_blocker() fails -- which
happens during umount -- the request is aborted before submission: the
already-collected folios are only redirtied and unlocked, so
writepages_finish() never runs and the claim is leaked.
redirty_page_for_writepage() -> folio_redirty_for_writepage() ->
filemap_dirty_folio() sets PG_dirty directly and does not go through
->dirty_folio, so ceph_dirty_folio() is not re-entered to rebalance it.
Because every subsequent writeback also fails the osd_stopping_blocker,
i_wrbuffer_ref never returns to 0, the ihold() is never dropped, and the
inode cannot be evicted:
VFS: Busy inodes after unmount of ceph
kernel BUG at fs/super.c:650!
Release the orphaned claim in the abort path before redirtying, via
ceph_undo_wrbuffer_claim(): detach the snap_context, drop the wrbuffer
reference (letting i_wrbuffer_ref reach 0 and iput() the inode), and drop
the snap_context reference -- i.e. do what writepages_finish() would have
done for these never-submitted folios.
Only the locked_pages entries are undone; folios still in the fbatch were
never dirty-cleared by this call (folio_clear_dirty_for_io() is the
ownership-transfer point, and a successful move NULLs the fbatch slot), so
they hold no claim this call owns. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
SUNRPC: close backchannel before destroying callback service
A backchannel receive can complete a request while the NFS callback
service is being torn down. xprt_complete_bc_request() removes the
request from bc_pa_list, drops bc_alloc_count, marks the request in use,
and then asks xprt_enqueue_bc_request() to hand it to the callback
service.
If teardown has already cleared xprt->bc_serv, xprt_enqueue_bc_request()
currently returns without enqueueing or freeing the committed request.
The xprt_get() taken on entry is leaked as well. If the producer wins
the race before bc_serv is cleared, it can also enqueue onto sv_cb_list
after nfs_callback_down() has stopped the callback threads, leaving the
request linked to a svc_serv that is about to be freed.
Close the producer side before callback threads are stopped. Add
xprt_svc_shutdown_bc() to clear xprt->bc_serv under bc_pa_lock, and call
it on callback shutdown and callback-start failure before stopping the
service threads. Requests that lose the NULL transition in
xprt_enqueue_bc_request() are released through the normal backchannel
free path after balancing bc_slot_count. Finally, drain any remaining
sv_cb_list requests after the callback threads have stopped and before
svc_destroy() frees the service. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFS/localio: fix ref leak on nfs_uuid_add_file failure
When nfs_uuid_add_file() races with nfs_uuid_put() tearing down
uuid->net, it returns -ENXIO without publishing nfl->nfs_uuid via
rcu_assign_pointer(). nfs_open_local_fh() then enters its error
branch and only releases the slot's file ref and its paired net
ref plus its own entry-time net ref, while the close path is a
no-op:
nfs_close_local_fh()
nfs_uuid = rcu_dereference(nfl->nfs_uuid);
if (!nfs_uuid) { rcu_read_unlock(); return; } /* always */
nfsd_open_local_fh() returns localio holding a caller-owned +1
nfsd_file reference (from nfsd_file_get() after
nfsd_file_acquire_local()) and an entry-time nfsd_net reference
(from its first nfsd_net_try_get()) embedded as nf->nf_net. Both
are leaked on the failure path, pinning one nfsd_file (and the
underlying struct file, dentry, inode) and one nfsd_net_ref per
occurrence, which blocks nfsd_net and netns teardown.
Fix by releasing the caller-owned file ref and its net ref through
the existing helper, using a stack-local RCU pointer so the helper
can xchg it out, then returning -ENXIO so callers do not
dereference a localio whose slot has been cleared:
struct nfsd_file __rcu *tmp = RCU_INITIALIZER(localio);
nfs_to_nfsd_file_put_local(pnf);
nfs_to_nfsd_file_put_local(&tmp);
localio = ERR_PTR(-ENXIO);
The trailing nfs_to_nfsd_net_put(net) continues to release the
outer net ref, so all three nfsd_net_try_get() increments are
balanced on the error branch. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/mglru: fix and remove redundant unevictable folio handling
sort_folio() has a shortcut for moving folios that are no longer evictable
but are still sitting on a generation list. However, this shortcut is
buggy. It does not follow the PG_lru usage convention, and it has a more
serious issue.
Unevictable folios are not threaded on lists[LRU_UNEVICTABLE], so that
folio->lru can be reused to hold folio->mlock_count (see the comment in
lruvec_init()). Hence lruvec_add_folio() skips the list_add() for them,
and every other place that turns a folio unevictable initialises
mlock_count explicitly: lru_add() sets it to 0, __mlock_folio() and
__mlock_new_folio() set it to !!folio_test_mlocked(folio). sort_folio()
sets nothing, and the lru_gen_del_folio() right above it may have already
poisoned folio->lru via list_del(), so mlock_count ends up aliasing
LIST_POISON2, which reads as 0x122, i.e. 290. The result is user
visible. On munlock, __munlock_folio() decrements that bogus count, finds
it still non-zero and bails out before clearing PG_mlocked, so the folio
remains unevictable and the Mlocked accounting stays inflated until the
folio is freed.
The shortcut also touches the LRU flags in the wrong order. It calls
lru_gen_del_folio() while PG_lru is still set, so a concurrent
folio_test_clear_lru() (e.g. compaction, folio_isolate_lru()) can succeed
on a folio that has already been taken off the generation list, which may
lead to unexpected behavior.
So fix it by isolating them as common folios and letting the generic
shrink path cull them. This matches the classical LRU behavior, and there
should be no visible effect on the generic eviction or isolation behavior.
There is no performance concern either, such a folio goes through this
once, and then it is off the generation lists for good. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix dentry ref leak on V4ROOT export filehandle lookup
nfsd_set_fh_dentry() leaks the dentry reference from
exportfs_decode_fh_raw() when the NFS3_FHSIZE or NFS_FHSIZE
switch cases detect NFSEXP_V4ROOT and goto out. The out: label
calls exp_put() but never dput(dentry), and fhp->fh_dentry was
never assigned so fh_put() cannot compensate.
A crafted NFSv3 filehandle targeting a V4ROOT export's fsid
triggers the leak on every request. |
