| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ceph: do not repeat ceph_trim_dentries() if no progress possible
ceph_cap_reclaim_work() re-queues itself for as long as
ceph_trim_dentries() returns -EAGAIN, which happens whenever a lease
walk exhausts its `nr_to_scan` budget. This creates a busy loop that
consumes CPU without making any progress when there is nothing to
reclaim: with no cap pressure (`count==0`) and every scanned lease
still valid, each pass runs the full scan budget down to zero and
returns `-EAGAIN`, only to be queued again immediately.
The dir-lease walk made this worse. When `expire_dir_lease` is
`false` (i.e. we have no intention of reclaiming dir leases),
__dir_lease_check() returned `TOUCH` for every valid lease. `TOUCH`
moves the dentry to the tail of the list and resets `di->time` via
__dentry_dir_lease_touch(), so a walk over N valid leases pointlessly
rewrote the list, refreshed the timestamps (preventing them from ever
aging out) and always drained `nr_to_scan`, guaranteeing the `-EAGAIN`
requeue.
Fix this in three steps:
- Return `KEEP` instead of `TOUCH` when `expire_dir_lease` is
`false`. If we are not going to reclaim the lease, leave it in
place instead of churning the list and resetting its timestamp; the
walk then terminates naturally (or via `STOP` at the first fresh
lease).
- Only return `-EAGAIN` from the first (dentry-lease) walk when something
was actually freed. A full batch that frees nothing means retrying
the same list immediately is futile; fall through to the dir-lease
walk instead.
- After both walks, bail out with success (0) when nothing was freed
and there is no cap pressure (`count==0`). There is no reason to
keep retrying when we are not over the cap limit and made no
progress.
Under real cap pressure (`count>0`) the reclaim path is unchanged and
still retries via `-EAGAIN`.
Without this patch, I saw 500 ceph_trim_dentries() calls per second on
our web servers. This is very visible in `/proc/lock_stat` (5 minute
capture):

acpi/apei/ghes: Use raw_spinlock_t for CXL CPER work locks
The CXL CPER work registration and unregistration helpers acquire
cxl_cper_work_lock and cxl_cper_prot_err_work_lock with a spinlock
guard(), which leaves local interrupts enabled. The corresponding post
paths (cxl_cper_post_event(), cxl_cper_post_prot_err()) execute in hard
IRQ context (they are called from the GHES error notification path) and
acquire the same locks with an irqsave guard().
If a CPU is holding one of these locks via a spinlock guard() when a GHES
interrupt arrives on the same CPU, the IRQ handler spins on the held lock
waiting for it to release, while the lock holder is preempted by the IRQ.
The result is a deadlock.
Convert both locks from spinlock_t to raw_spinlock_t and use guard() at
all call sites. On PREEMPT_RT kernels spinlock_t is backed by rt_mutex and
sleeping from hard IRQ context is not permitted; raw_spinlock_t is safe in
both contexts.
Add WARN_ONCE to both register functions to surface double-registration
bugs at runtime.
Restructure both unregister functions to clear the global work pointer
under the lock before calling cancel_work_sync(), closing the window
where a CPER interrupt could schedule work on a pointer about to be
freed. Add kfifo_reset() after cancel_work_sync() so stale entries
are not replayed on next module load.
Both kfifos are single-consumer: only one work_struct is registered at
a time, enforced by the WARN_ONCE guard in the register functions.
kfifo_reset() is safe outside the lock because cancel_work_sync() has
already quiesced the consumer, and no new consumer can register until
the current module exit completes and a fresh module init runs.
Remove the redundant cancel_work_sync() call from cxl_ras_exit() and
cxl_pci_driver_exit(). The CPER unregister functions now quiesce
the work internally. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm-io: clone the source bio instead of copying its biovec
For DM_IO_BIO requests, do_region() built each destination bio by walking
the source bio's biovec and re-adding the pages one at a time, tracking
the remaining transfer in sectors. The vector lengths are byte granular
and need not be sector aligned (e.g. a misaligned O_DIRECT buffer split
across pages), so the sector-based accounting could lose a sub-sector
fragment: to_sector() truncated the remainder and the outer loop spun
forever submitting empty bios, hanging the I/O.
There is no need to rebuild the biovec at all. The destination reads into
(or writes from) exactly the same pages as the source bio, so the bio can
simply clone the source's biovec with bio_alloc_clone() and remap it to
the target device. The clone inherits the source's iterator and alignment,
and the block layer splits it to the target's limits on submission, so the
whole region maps to a single cloned bio with no manual page copying or
sector accounting.
This removes the per-page copy path (and its open-coded bvec dpages
helpers) for bio-backed I/O and fixes the hang on misaligned direct I/O to
a dm-mirror device. Page-list, vma and kmem sources keep the existing copy
path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
jbd2: bound shrinker scans by examined checkpoint buffers
The jbd2 shrinker currently accounts only checkpoint buffers that it
successfully releases against nr_to_scan. Busy buffers therefore do not
consume the scan budget.
If a checkpoint transaction contains mostly busy buffers, the shrinker
can scan its entire checkpoint list while holding journal->j_list_lock.
Large checkpoint lists can result in excessive lock hold times and leave
other CPUs spinning on j_list_lock, causing soft lockups or RCU stalls.
Pass nr_to_scan into journal_shrink_one_cp_list() and decrement it for
every buffer examined, including busy buffers. Pass NULL from checkpoint
cleanup paths so their existing full-list behavior is preserved.
This restores the scan-budget semantics that existed before
journal_shrink_one_cp_list() was changed to always scan a complete
checkpoint list. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched_ext: Fix this_rq() assumptions in dispatch kfuncs
Under core scheduling, dispatch runs from within the core-wide pick and can
target a sibling rq, so ops.dispatch() may execute on a CPU different from
the dispatched rq's. Several kfunc paths assumed the two always coincide:
- scx_dsq_move() decided whether an rq lock is held by testing this_rq()'s
rq flags and lock-danced accordingly. A dispatch for a sibling took the
unlocked-context branch and acquired the source rq lock on top of the
already held dispatched rq lock which could deadlock.
- scx_bpf_sub_dispatch() dispatched this_rq() with its stashed
sub_dispatch_prev, which is NULL when dispatching for a sibling.
- finish_dispatch(), scx_bpf_dsq_reenq() and scx_bpf_dsq_nr_queued()
resolved SCX_DSQ_LOCAL to this CPU's local DSQ rather than the dispatched
rq's. The latter two are callable from other rq-locked operations too,
where SCX_DSQ_LOCAL now likewise resolves to the op's rq. This changes
behavior also without core scheduling, e.g. for ops.enqueue() running a
remote wakeup on the waking CPU, and is intended: which CPU happens to
execute an operation is incidental, the op's rq is what it is operating
on, and the resolution now matches the insert side where SCX_DSQ_LOCAL
dispatches land on the task's rq.
Use the rq tracked by scx_locked_rq(), which is set to the dispatched rq
around ops invocations and NULL in unlocked contexts. |

dm-pcache: detect a cycle in the last-kset chain during replay
cache_replay() follows the on-media last-kset chain by next_cache_seg_id
with no cond_resched(). A forged chain that points back into a segment it
has already visited makes the replay loop follow it forever.
Cap the last-kset hops at cache->n_segs; a valid chain visits each segment
at most once. |

drm/amdgpu: fix recursive ww_mutex acquire in amdgpu_devcoredump_format
When dumping IB contents from a hung job, amdgpu_devcoredump_format()
acquired the VM root PD's reservation via amdgpu_vm_lock_by_pasid() and
then, for each IB, called amdgpu_bo_reserve() on the BO backing the IB.
Both reservations are reservation_ww_class_mutex objects and neither
used a ww_acquire_ctx, which trips lockdep:

The two reservations are on different BOs in the captured trace, so the
splat is a lockdep-correctness warning, not an observed deadlock. It
becomes a real self-deadlock whenever the IB BO shares its dma_resv with
the root PD (the always-valid case, see amdgpu_vm_is_bo_always_valid()):
amdgpu_bo_reserve(abo) re-acquires the same ww_mutex without a ticket
and blocks forever. With amdgpu.gpu_recovery=0 the timeout handler
refires every ~2 s and each invocation produces this splat, drowning the
kernel ring buffer.
Now that amdgpu_vm_lock_by_pasid() takes a drm_exec context, move the IB
dumping into a separate helper that locks the root PD and every IB BO
together in a single drm_exec ticket. DRM_EXEC_IGNORE_DUPLICATES handles
IB BOs that share a dma_resv (e.g. always-valid BOs, or two IBs backed
by the same BO). Every lock is now a top-level acquire under one
ww_acquire_ctx, so the recursive ww_mutex condition is gone, and the
per-IB amdgpu_bo_reserve()/amdgpu_bo_unref() dance -- including a BO
refcount leak on the amdgpu_bo_reserve() failure path -- is removed.

| smol-toml is a small, fast, and correct TOML parser and serializer. Prior to 1.7.1, parse() can enter an infinite loop when a value inside an array or inline table is followed by a comment with no trailing newline. In src/util.ts, skipUntil() calls indexOfNewline(), receives -1 at the end of input, and resets the cursor to the beginning of the string instead of leaving the structure scan. The parser then hangs indefinitely and can consume a service's processing capacity when an application parses attacker-controlled TOML. This issue is fixed in version 1.7.1. |

| pyasn1 is a generic ASN.1 library for Python. Prior to 0.6.3, the `pyasn1` library is vulnerable to a Denial of Service (DoS) attack caused by uncontrolled recursion when decoding ASN.1 data with deeply nested structures. An attacker can supply a crafted payload containing thousands of nested `SEQUENCE` (`0x30`) or `SET` (`0x31`) tags with "Indefinite Length" (`0x80`) markers. This forces the decoder to recursively call itself until the Python interpreter crashes with a `RecursionError` or consumes all available memory (OOM), crashing the host application. This is a distinct vulnerability from CVE-2026-23490 (which addressed integer overflows in OID decoding). The fix for CVE-2026-23490 (`MAX_OID_ARC_CONTINUATION_OCTETS`) does not mitigate this recursion issue. Version 0.6.3 fixes this specific issue. |

fs/fcntl: fix SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock order in fasync signaling
A SOFTIRQ-safe to SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock order deadlock can occur in
send_sigio() and send_sigurg() when a process group receives a signal.
When FASYNC is configured for a process group (PIDTYPE_PGID), both
functions use read_lock(&tasklist_lock) to traverse the task list.
However, they are frequently called from softirq context:
- send_sigio() via input_inject_event -> kill_fasync
- send_sigurg() via tcp_check_urg -> sk_send_sigurg (NET_RX_SOFTIRQ)
The deadlock is caused by the rwlock writer fairness mechanism:
1. CPU 0 (process context) holds read_lock(&tasklist_lock) in do_wait().
2. CPU 1 (process context) attempts write_lock(&tasklist_lock) in
fork() or exit() and spins, which blocks all new readers.
3. CPU 0 is interrupted by a softirq (e.g., TCP URG packet reception).
4. The softirq calls send_sigurg() and attempts to acquire
read_lock(&tasklist_lock), deadlocking because CPU 1 is waiting.
Since PID hashing and do_each_pid_task() traversals are already
RCU-protected, the read_lock on tasklist_lock is no longer strictly
required for safe traversal. Fix this by replacing tasklist_lock with
rcu_read_lock(), aligning the process group signaling path with the
single-PID path. This also mitigates a potential remote denial of
service vector via TCP URG packets.

io_uring/poll: fix signed comparison in io_poll_get_ownership()
io_poll_get_ownership() uses a signed comparison to check whether
poll_refs has reached the threshold for the slowpath:
if (unlikely(atomic_read(&req->poll_refs) >= IO_POLL_REF_BIAS))
atomic_read() returns int (signed). When IO_POLL_CANCEL_FLAG
(BIT(31)) is set in poll_refs, the value becomes negative in
signed arithmetic, so the >= 128 comparison always evaluates to
false and the slowpath is never taken.
Fix this by casting the atomic_read() result to unsigned int
before the comparison, so that the cancel flag is treated as a
large positive value and correctly triggers the slowpath. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: mark GFP_NOIO around sysfs ->store()
sysfs ->store is called with queue freezed, meantime we have several
->store() callbacks(update_nr_requests, wbt, scheduler) to allocate
memory with GFP_KERNEL which may run into direct reclaim code path,
then potential deadlock can be caused.
Fix the issue by marking NOIO around sysfs ->store() |
| A security issue was discovered in the LRA Coordinator component of Narayana. When Cancel is called in LRA, an execution time of approximately 2 seconds occurs. If Join is called with the same LRA ID within that timeframe, the application may crash or hang indefinitely, leading to a denial of service. |
| Previously, after a channel has been established, a malicious peer could send crafted messages that would deadlock the entire connection. Now, we handle all RFC 4254 channel messages; global requests are handled explicitly. Then, treat all other messages as a protocol error and tear the connection down instead of buffering and blocking. |
