commit 808f80b4 upstream. My previous fix in commit 005efedf ("Btrfs: fix read corruption of compressed and shared extents") was effective only if the compressed extents cover a file range with a length that is not a multiple of 16 pages. That's because the detection of when we reached a different range of the file that shares the same compressed extent as the previously processed range was done at extent_io.c:__do_contiguous_readpages(), which covers subranges with a length up to 16 pages, because extent_readpages() groups the pages in clusters no larger than 16 pages. So fix this by tracking the start of the previously processed file range's extent map at extent_readpages(). The following test case for fstests reproduces the issue: seq=`basename $0` seqres=$RESULT_DIR/$seq echo "QA output created by $seq" tmp=/tmp/$$ status=1 # failure is the default! trap "_cleanup; exit \$status" 0 1 2 3 15 _cleanup() { rm -f $tmp.* } # get standard environment, filters and checks . ./common/rc . ./common/filter # real QA test starts here _need_to_be_root _supported_fs btrfs _supported_os Linux _require_scratch _require_cloner rm -f $seqres.full test_clone_and_read_compressed_extent() { local mount_opts=$1 _scratch_mkfs >>$seqres.full 2>&1 _scratch_mount $mount_opts # Create our test file with a single extent of 64Kb that is going to # be compressed no matter which compression algo is used (zlib/lzo). $XFS_IO_PROG -f -c "pwrite -S 0xaa 0K 64K" \ $SCRATCH_MNT/foo | _filter_xfs_io # Now clone the compressed extent into an adjacent file offset. $CLONER_PROG -s 0 -d $((64 * 1024)) -l $((64 * 1024)) \ $SCRATCH_MNT/foo $SCRATCH_MNT/foo echo "File digest before unmount:" md5sum $SCRATCH_MNT/foo | _filter_scratch # Remount the fs or clear the page cache to trigger the bug in # btrfs. Because the extent has an uncompressed length that is a # multiple of 16 pages, all the pages belonging to the second range # of the file (64K to 128K), which points to the same extent as the # first range (0K to 64K), had their contents full of zeroes instead # of the byte 0xaa.

commit 911b79cd upstream. If request_key() is used to find a keyring, only do the search part - don't do the construction part if the keyring was not found by the search. We don't really want keyrings in the negative instantiated state since the rejected/negative instantiation error value in the payload is unioned with keyring metadata. Now the kernel gives an error: request_key("keyring", "#selinux,bdekeyring", "keyring", KEY_SPEC_USER_SESSION_KEYRING) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted) Signed-off-by:

commit f05819df upstream. The following sequence of commands: i=`keyctl add user a a @s` keyctl request2 keyring foo bar @t keyctl unlink $i @s tries to invoke an upcall to instantiate a keyring if one doesn't already exist by that name within the user's keyring set. However, if the upcall fails, the code sets keyring->type_data.reject_error to -ENOKEY or some other error code. When the key is garbage collected, the key destroy function is called unconditionally and keyring_destroy() uses list_empty() on keyring->type_data.link - which is in a union with reject_error. Subsequently, the kernel tries to unlink the keyring from the keyring names list - which oopses like this: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 00000000ffffff8a IP: [<ffffffff8126e051>] keyring_destroy+0x3d/0x88 ...

commit 94c4554b upstream. There appears to be a race between: (1) key_gc_unused_keys() which frees key->security and then calls keyring_destroy() to unlink the name from the name list (2) find_keyring_by_name() which calls key_permission(), thus accessing key->security, on a key before checking to see whether the key usage is 0 (ie. the key is dead and might be cleaned up). Fix this by calling ->destroy() before cleaning up the core key data - including key->security. Reported-by:

Without this length argument, we can read past the end of the iovec in memcpy_toiovec because we have no way of knowing the total length of the iovec's buffers. This is needed for stable kernels where 89c22d8c ("net: Fix skb csum races when peeking") has been backported but that don't have the ioviter conversion, which is almost all the stable trees <= 3.18. This also fixes a kernel crash for NFS servers when the client uses -onfsvers=3,proto=udp to mount the export. Signed-off-by:

commit db65a3aa upstream. netlink_dump() allocates skb based on the calculated min_dump_alloc or a per socket max_recvmsg_len. min_alloc_size is maximum space required for any single netdev attributes as calculated by rtnl_calcit(). max_recvmsg_len tracks the user provided buffer to netlink_recvmsg. It is capped at 16KiB. The intention is to avoid small allocations and to minimize the number of calls required to obtain dump information for all net devices. netlink_dump packs as many small messages as could fit within an skb that was sized for the largest single netdev information. The actual space available within an skb is larger than what is requested. It could be much larger and up to near 2x with align to next power of 2 approach. Allowing netlink_dump to use all the space available within the allocated skb increases the buffer size a user has to provide to avoid truncaion (i.e. MSG_TRUNG flag set). It was observed that with many VLANs configured on at least one netdev, a larger buffer of near 64KiB was necessary to avoid "Message truncated" error in "ip link" or "bridge [-c[ompressvlans]] vlan show" when min_alloc_size was only little over 32KiB. This patch trims skb to allocated size in order to allow the user to avoid truncation with more reasonable buffer size. Signed-off-by:

commit e6740165 upstream. Since commit 2b018d57 ("pppoe: drop PPPOX_ZOMBIEs in pppoe_release"), pppoe_release() calls dev_put(po->pppoe_dev) if sk is in the PPPOX_ZOMBIE state. But pppoe_flush_dev() can set sk->sk_state to PPPOX_ZOMBIE _and_ reset po->pppoe_dev to NULL. This leads to the following oops: [ 570.140800] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000000000004e0 [ 570.142931] IP: [<ffffffffa018c701>] pppoe_release+0x50/0x101 [pppoe] [ 570.144601] PGD 3d119067 PUD 3dbc1067 PMD 0 [ 570.144601] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP [ 570.144601] Modules linked in: l2tp_ppp l2tp_netlink l2tp_core ip6_udp_tunnel udp_tunnel pppoe pppox ppp_generic slhc loop crc32c_intel ghash_clmulni_intel jitterentropy_rng sha256_generic hmac drbg ansi_cprng aesni_intel aes_x86_64 ablk_helper cryptd lrw gf128mul glue_helper acpi_cpufreq evdev serio_raw processor button ext4 crc16 mbcache jbd2 virtio_net virtio_blk virtio_pci virtio_ring virtio [ 570.144601] CPU: 1 PID: 15738 Comm: ppp-apitest Not tainted 4.2.0 #1 [ 570.144601] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS Debian-1.8.2-1 04/01/2014 [ 570.144601] task: ffff88003d30d600 ti: ffff880036b60000 task.ti: ffff880036b60000 [ 570.144601] RIP: 0010:[<ffffffffa018c701>] [<ffffffffa018c701>] pppoe_release+0x50/0x101 [pppoe] [ 570.144601] RSP: 0018:ffff880036b63e08 EFLAGS: 00010202 [ 570.144601] RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: ffff880034340000 RCX: 0000000000000206 [ 570.144601] RDX: 0000000000000006 RSI: ffff88003d30dd20 RDI: ffff88003d30dd20 [ 570.144601] RBP: ffff880036b63e28 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: 0000000000000000 [ 570.144601] R10: 00007ffee9b50420 R11: ffff880034340078 R12: ffff8800387ec780 [ 570.144601] R13: ffff8800387ec7b0 R14: ffff88003e222aa0 R15: ffff8800387ec7b0 [ 570.144601] FS: 00007f5672f48700(0000) GS:ffff88003fc80000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 570.144601] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [ 570.144601] CR2: 00000000000004e0 CR3: 0000000037f7e000 CR4: 00000000000406a0 [ 570.144601] Stack: [ 570.144601] ffffffffa018f240 ffff8800387ec780 ffffffffa018f240 ffff8800387ec7b0 [ 570.144601] ffff880036b63e48 ffffffff812caabe ffff880039e4e000 0000000000000008 [ 570.144601] ffff880036b63e58 ffffffff812cabad ffff880036b63ea8 ffffffff811347f5 [ 570.144601] Call Trace: [ 570.144601] [<ffffffff812caabe>] sock_release+0x1a/0x75 [ 570.144601] [<ffffffff812cabad>] sock_close+0xd/0x11 [ 570.144601] [<ffffffff811347f5>] __fput+0xff/0x1a5 [ 570.144601] [<ffffffff811348cb>] ____fput+0x9/0xb [ 570.144601] [<ffffffff81056682>] task_work_run+0x66/0x90 [ 570.144601] [<ffffffff8100189e>] prepare_exit_to_usermode+0x8c/0xa7 [ 570.144601] [<ffffffff81001a26>] syscall_return_slowpath+0x16d/0x19b [ 570.144601] [<ffffffff813babb1>] int_ret_from_sys_call+0x25/0x9f [ 570.144601] Code: 48 8b 83 c8 01 00 00 a8 01 74 12 48 89 df e8 8b 27 14 e1 b8 f7 ff ff ff e9 b7 00 00 00 8a 43 12 a8 0b 74 1c 48 8b 83 a8 04 00 00 <48> 8b 80 e0 04 00 00 65 ff 08 48 c7 83 a8 04 00 00 00 00 00 00 [ 570.144601] RIP [<ffffffffa018c701>] pppoe_release+0x50/0x101 [pppoe] [ 570.144601] RSP <ffff880036b63e08> [ 570.144601] CR2: 00000000000004e0 [ 570.200518] ---[ end trace 46956baf17349563 ]--- pppoe_flush_dev() has no reason to override sk->sk_state with PPPOX_ZOMBIE. pppox_unbind_sock() already sets sk->sk_state to PPPOX_DEAD, which is the correct state given that sk is unbound and po->pppoe_dev is NULL.

commit c7c49b8f upstream. Greg reported crashes hitting the following check in __sk_backlog_rcv() BUG_ON(!sock_flag(sk, SOCK_MEMALLOC)); The pfmemalloc bit is currently checked in sk_filter(). This works correctly for TCP, because sk_filter() is ran in tcp_v[46]_rcv() before hitting the prequeue or backlog checks. For UDP or other protocols, this does not work, because the sk_filter() is ran from sock_queue_rcv_skb(), which might be called _after_ backlog queuing if socket is owned by user by the time packet is processed by softirq handler.

commit 31b33dfb upstream. Earlier patch 6ae459bd tried to detect void ckecksum partial skb by comparing pull length to checksum offset. But it does not work for all cases since checksum-offset depends on updates to skb->data. Following patch fixes it by validating checksum start offset after skb-data pointer is updated. Negative value of checksum offset start means there is no need to checksum. Fixes: 6ae459bd ("skbuff: Fix skb checksum flag on skb pull") Reported-by:

commit 9f389e35 upstream. AF_UNIX sockets now return multiple skbs from recv() when MSG_PEEK flag is set. This is referenced in kernel bugzilla #12323 @ https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12323 As described both in the BZ and lkml thread @ http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/1/8/444 calling recv() with MSG_PEEK on an AF_UNIX socket only reads a single skb, where the desired effect is to return as much skb data has been queued, until hitting the recv buffer size (whichever comes first). The modified MSG_PEEK path will now move to the next skb in the tree and jump to the again: label, rather than following the natural loop structure. This requires duplicating some of the loop head actions. This was tested using the python socketpair python code attached to the bugzilla issue. Signed-off-by:

commit e8577d1f upstream. ipc_addid() makes a new ipc identifier visible to everyone. New objects start as locked, so that the caller can complete the initialization after the call. Within struct sem_array, at least sma->sem_base and sma->sem_nsems are accessed without any locks, therefore this approach doesn't work. Thus: Move the ipc_addid() to the end of the initialization.

commit f648f807 upstream. Commit f8d96052 ("sctp: Enforce retransmission limit during shutdown") fixed a problem with excessive retransmissions in the SHUTDOWN_PENDING by not resetting the association overall_error_count. This allowed the association to better enforce assoc.max_retrans limit. However, the same issue still exists when the association is in SHUTDOWN_RECEIVED state. In this state, HB-ACKs will continue to reset the overall_error_count for the association would extend the lifetime of association unnecessarily. This patch solves this by resetting the overall_error_count whenever the current state is small then SCTP_STATE_SHUTDOWN_PENDING. As a small side-effect, we end up also handling SCTP_STATE_SHUTDOWN_ACK_SENT and SCTP_STATE_SHUTDOWN_SENT states, but they are not really impacted because we disable Heartbeats in those states.

commit fbb18169 upstream. It was possible for an attacking user to trick root (or another user) into writing his coredumps into an attacker-readable, pre-existing file using rename() or link(), causing the disclosure of secret data from the victim process' virtual memory. Depending on the configuration, it was also possible to trick root into overwriting system files with coredumps. Fix that issue by never writing coredumps into existing files. Requirements for the attack: - The attack only applies if the victim's process has a nonzero RLIMIT_CORE and is dumpable. - The attacker can trick the victim into coredumping into an attacker-writable directory D, either because the core_pattern is relative and the victim's cwd is attacker-writable or because an absolute core_pattern pointing to a world-writable directory is used. - The attacker has one of these: A: on a system with protected_hardlinks=0: execute access to a folder containing a victim-owned, attacker-readable file on the same partition as D, and the victim-owned file will be deleted before the main part of the attack takes place. (In practice, there are lots of files that fulfill this condition, e.g. entries in Debian's /var/lib/dpkg/info/.) This does not apply to most Linux systems because most distros set protected_hardlinks=1. B: on a system with protected_hardlinks=1: execute access to a folder containing a victim-owned, attacker-readable and attacker-writable file on the same partition as D, and the victim-owned file will be deleted before the main part of the attack takes place. (This seems to be uncommon.) C: on any system, independent of protected_hardlinks: write access to a non-sticky folder containing a victim-owned, attacker-readable file on the same partition as D (This seems to be uncommon.) The basic idea is that the attacker moves the victim-owned file to where he expects the victim process to dump its core. The victim process dumps its core into the existing file, and the attacker reads the coredump from it. If the attacker can't move the file because he does not have write access to the containing directory, he can instead link the file to a directory he controls, then wait for the original link to the file to be deleted (because the kernel checks that the link count of the corefile is 1). A less reliable variant that requires D to be non-sticky works with link() and does not require deletion of the original link: link() the file into D, but then unlink() it directly before the kernel performs the link count check. On systems with protected_hardlinks=0, this variant allows an attacker to not only gain information from coredumps, but also clobber existing, victim-writable files with coredumps. (This could theoretically lead to a privilege escalation.) Signed-off-by:

commit 03a2d2a3 upstream. Commit description is copied from the original post of this bug: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.mm/135349 Kernels after v3.9 use kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1) to get the next larger cache size than the size index INDEX_NODE mapping. In kernels 3.9 and earlier we used malloc_sizes[INDEX_L3 + 1].cs_size. However, sometimes we can't get the right output we expected via kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1), causing a BUG(). The mapping table in the latest kernel is like: index = {0, 1, 2 , 3, 4, 5, 6, n} size = {0, 96, 192, 8, 16, 32, 64, 2^n} The mapping table before 3.10 is like this: index = {0 , 1 , 2, 3, 4 , 5 , 6, n} size = {32, 64, 96, 128, 192, 256, 512, 2^(n+3)} The problem on my mips64 machine is as follows: (1) When configured DEBUG_SLAB && DEBUG_PAGEALLOC && DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC && DEBUG_SPINLOCK, the sizeof(struct kmem_cache_node) will be "150", and the macro INDEX_NODE turns out to be "2": #define INDEX_NODE kmalloc_index(sizeof(struct kmem_cache_node)) (2) Then the result of kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1) is 8. (3) Then "if(size >= kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1)" will lead to "size = PAGE_SIZE". (4) Then "if ((size >= (PAGE_SIZE >> 3))" test will be satisfied and "flags |= CFLGS_OFF_SLAB" will be covered. (5) if (flags & CFLGS_OFF_SLAB)" test will be satisfied and will go to "cachep->slabp_cache = kmalloc_slab(slab_size, 0u)", and the result here may be NULL while kernel bootup. (6) Finally,"BUG_ON(ZERO_OR_NULL_PTR(cachep->slabp_cache));" causes the BUG info as the following shows (may be only mips64 has this problem): This patch fixes the problem of kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1) and removes the BUG by adding 'size >= 256' check to guarantee that all necessary small sized slabs are initialized regardless sequence of slab size in mapping table.

I can stable recurring problems in fedora22(4.0.4) kernel version, arch for x86_64. I construct transparent huge page, when the parent and child process with MAP_SHARE, MAP_PRIVATE way to access the same huge page area, it has the opportunity to lead to huge page copy on write failure, and then it will munmap the child corresponding mmap area, but then the child mmap area with VM_MAYSHARE attributes, child process munmap this area can trigger VM_BUG_ON in set_vma_resv_flags functions (vma - > vm_flags & VM_MAYSHARE). There were a number of problems with the report (e.g. it's hugetlbfs that triggers this, not transparent huge pages) but it was fundamentally correct in that a VM_BUG_ON in set_vma_resv_flags() can be triggered that looks like this vma ffff8804651fd0d0 start 00007fc474e00000 end 00007fc475e00000 next ffff8804651fd018 prev ffff8804651fd188 mm ffff88046b1b1800 prot 8000000000000027 anon_vma (null) vm_ops ffffffff8182a7a0 pgoff 0 file ffff88106bdb9800 private_data (null) flags: 0x84400fb(read|write|shared|mayread|maywrite|mayexec|mayshare|dontexpand|hugetlb) ------------ kernel BUG at mm/hugetlb.c:462!

PowerEdge R810/0TT6JF, BIOS 2.7.4 04/26/2012 set_vma_resv_flags+0x2d/0x30 The VM_BUG_ON is correct because private and shared mappings have different reservation accounting but the warning clearly shows that the VMA is shared. When a private COW fails to allocate a new page then only the process that created the VMA gets the page -- all the children unmap the page. If the children access that data in the future then they get killed. The problem is that the same file is mapped shared and private. During the COW, the allocation fails, the VMAs are traversed to unmap the other private pages but a shared VMA is found and the bug is triggered. This patch identifies such VMAs and skips them.

This is a sensible and safe change anyway, and the KVM bug fix might not be suitable for stable releases anyway. Signed-off-by:

commit a5caa209 upstream. Beginning with UEFI v2.5 EFI_PROPERTIES_TABLE was introduced that signals that the firmware PE/COFF loader supports splitting code and data sections of PE/COFF images into separate EFI memory map entries. This allows the kernel to map those regions with strict memory protections, e.g. EFI_MEMORY_RO for code, EFI_MEMORY_XP for data, etc. Unfortunately, an unwritten requirement of this new feature is that the regions need to be mapped with the same offsets relative to each other as observed in the EFI memory map. If this is not done crashes like this may occur, BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at fffffffefe6086dd IP: [<fffffffefe6086dd>] 0xfffffffefe6086dd Call Trace: [<ffffffff8104c90e>] efi_call+0x7e/0x100 [<ffffffff81602091>] ? virt_efi_set_variable+0x61/0x90 [<ffffffff8104c583>] efi_delete_dummy_variable+0x63/0x70 [<ffffffff81f4e4aa>] efi_enter_virtual_mode+0x383/0x392 [<ffffffff81f37e1b>] start_kernel+0x38a/0x417 [<ffffffff81f37495>] x86_64_start_reservations+0x2a/0x2c [<ffffffff81f37582>] x86_64_start_kernel+0xeb/0xef Here 0xfffffffefe6086dd refers to an address the firmware expects to be mapped but which the OS never claimed was mapped. The issue is that included in these regions are relative addresses to other regions which were emitted by the firmware toolchain before the "splitting" of sections occurred at runtime. Needless to say, we don't satisfy this unwritten requirement on x86_64 and instead map the EFI memory map entries in reverse order. The above crash is almost certainly triggerable with any kernel newer than v3.13 because that's when we rewrote the EFI runtime region mapping code, in commit d2f7cbe7 ("x86/efi: Runtime services virtual mapping"). For kernel versions before v3.13 things may work by pure luck depending on the fragmentation of the kernel virtual address space at the time we map the EFI regions. Instead of mapping the EFI memory map entries in reverse order, where entry N has a higher virtual address than entry N+1, map them in the same order as they appear in the EFI memory map to preserve this relative offset between regions. This patch has been kept as small as possible with the intention that it should be applied aggressively to stable and distribution kernels. It is very much a bugfix rather than support for a new feature, since when EFI_PROPERTIES_TABLE is enabled we must map things as outlined above to even boot - we have no way of asking the firmware not to split the code/data regions. In fact, this patch doesn't even make use of the more strict memory protections available in UEFI v2.5. That will come later. Suggested-by:

commit 8474ba74 upstream. Make sure the compiler does not modify arguments of syscall functions. This can happen if the compiler generates a tailcall to another function. For example, without asmlinkage_protect sys_openat is compiled into this function: sys_openat: clr.l %d0 move.w 18(%sp),%d0 move.l %d0,16(%sp) jbra do_sys_open Note how the fourth argument is modified in place, modifying the register %d4 that gets restored from this stack slot when the function returns to user-space. The caller may expect the register to be unmodified across system calls. Signed-off-by:

commit b5cabbcb upstream. A copy of /proc/kcore containing the kernel text can be made to the buildid cache. e.g. perf buildid-cache -v -k /proc/kcore To workaround objdump limitations, a copy is also made when annotating against /proc/kcore. The copying process stops working from libelf about v1.62 onwards (the problem was found with v1.63). The cause is that a call to gelf_getphdr() in kcore__add_phdr() fails because additional validation has been added to gelf_getphdr(). The use of gelf_getphdr() is a misguided attempt to get default initialization of the Gelf_Phdr structure. That should not be necessary because every member of the Gelf_Phdr structure is subsequently assigned. So just remove the call to gelf_getphdr(). Similarly, a call to gelf_getehdr() in gelf_kcore__init() can be removed also. Committer notes: Note to stable@kernel.org, from Adrian in the cover letter for this patchkit: The "Fix copying of /proc/kcore" problem goes back to v3.13 if you think it is important enough for stable.
