[PATCH] net/dccp: validate Reset/Close/CloseReq in DCCP_REQUESTING

by Yizhou Zhao

DCCP sockets in DCCP_REQUESTING state do not check the sequence number or acknowledgment number for incoming Reset, CloseReq, and Close packets. As a result, an attacker can send a spoofed Reset packet while the client is in the requesting state. The client will accept the packet without verification and immediately close the connection, causing a denial of service (DoS) attack. This patch moves the processing of Reset, Close, and CloseReq packets into dccp_rcv_request_sent_state_process() and validates the ack number before accepting them. This fix should apply to stable versions *only* in Linux 5.x and 6.x. Note that DCCP was removed in Linux 6.16, so this patch is only relevant for older versions. We tested it on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (Linux 6.8) and it worked as expected.

[REGRESSION] IPv6 RA default router advertisement fails after kernel 6.12.42 updates

by 喵公子

Hi, While testing Linux kernel 6.12.42 on OpenWrt, we observed a regression in IPv6 Router Advertisement (RA) handling for the default router. Affected commits The following commits appear related and may have introduced the issue: ipv6: fix possible infinite loop in fib6_info_uses_dev()： https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?h=… ipv6: prevent infinite loop in rt6_nlmsg_size()： https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?h=… ipv6: annotate data-races around rt->fib6_nsiblings： https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?h=… Problem description： In Linux kernel 6.12.42, IPv6 FIB multipath and concurrent access handling was made stricter (READ_ONCE / WRITE_ONCE + RCU retry). The RA “Automatic” mode relies on checking whether a local default route exists. With the stricter FIB handling, this check can fail in multipath scenarios. As a result, RA does not advertise a default route, and IPv6 clients on LAN fail to receive the default gateway. Steps to reproduce Run OpenWrt with kernel 6.12.42 (or 6.12.43) on a router with br-lan bridge. Configure IPv6 RA in Automatic default router mode. Observe that no default route is advertised to clients (though prefixes may still be delivered). Expected behavior Router Advertisement should continue to advertise the default route as in kernel 6.12.41 and earlier. Client IPv6 connectivity should not break. Actual behavior RA fails to advertise a default route in Automatic mode. Clients do not install a default IPv6 route → connectivity fails. Temporary workaround Change RA default router mode from Automatic → Always / Use available prefixes in OpenWrt. This bypasses the dependency on local default route check and restores correct RA behavior. Additional notes This appears to be an unintended side effect of the stricter FIB handling changes introduced in 6.12.42. Please advise if this has already been reported or if I should prepare a minimal reproducer outside OpenWrt. Thanks, [GitHub: mgz0227]

[PATCH v2] btrfs: do more strict compressed read merge check

[CAUSE] With extra debug trace_printk(), the following sequence can explain the root cause: fsx-3900290 [002] ..... 161696.160966: btrfs_submit_compressed_read: r/i=5/258 file_off=131072 em start=126976 len=16384 The "r/i" is showing the root id and the ino number. In this case, my minimal reproducer is indeed using inode 258 of subvolume 5, and that's the inode with changing contents. The above trace is from the function btrfs_submit_compressed_read(), triggered by fsx to read the folio at file offset 128K. Notice that the extent map, it's at offset 124K, with a length of 16K. This means the extent map only covers the first 12K (3 blocks) of the folio 128K. fsx-3900290 [002] ..... 161696.160969: trace_dump_cb: btrfs_submit_compressed_read, r/i=5/258 file off start=131072 len=65536 bi_size=65536 This is the line I used to dump the basic info of a bbio, which shows the bi_size is 64K, aka covering the whole 64K folio at file offset 128K. But remember, the extent map only covers 3 blocks, definitely not enough to cover the whole 64K folio at 128K file offset. kworker/u19:1-3748349 [002] ..... 161696.161154: btrfs_decompress_buf2page: r/i=5/258 file_off=131072 copy_len=4096 content=ffff kworker/u19:1-3748349 [002] ..... 161696.161155: btrfs_decompress_buf2page: r/i=5/258 file_off=135168 copy_len=4096 content=ffff kworker/u19:1-3748349 [002] ..... 161696.161156: btrfs_decompress_buf2page: r/i=5/258 file_off=139264 copy_len=4096 content=ffff kworker/u19:1-3748349 [002] ..... 161696.161157: btrfs_decompress_buf2page: r/i=5/258 file_off=143360 copy_len=4096 content=ffff The above lines show that btrfs_decompress_buf2page() called by zstd decompress code is copying the decompressed content into the filemap. But notice that, the last line is already beyond the extent map range. Furthermore, there are no more compressed content copy, as the compressed bio only has the extent map to cover the first 3 blocks (the 4th block copy is already incorrect). kworker/u19:1-3748349 [002] ..... 161696.161161: trace_dump_cb: r/i=5/258 file_pos=131072 content=ffff kworker/u19:1-3748349 [002] ..... 161696.161161: trace_dump_cb: r/i=5/258 file_pos=135168 content=ffff kworker/u19:1-3748349 [002] ..... 161696.161162: trace_dump_cb: r/i=5/258 file_pos=139264 content=ffff kworker/u19:1-3748349 [002] ..... 161696.161162: trace_dump_cb: r/i=5/258 file_pos=143360 content=ffff kworker/u19:1-3748349 [002] ..... 161696.161162: trace_dump_cb: r/i=5/258 file_pos=147456 content=0000 This is the extra dumpping of the compressed bio, after file offset 140K (143360), the content is all zero, which is incorrect. The zero is there because we didn't copy anything into the folio. The root cause of the corruption is, we are submitting a compressed read for a whole folio, but the extent map we get only covers the first 3 blocks, meaning the compressed read path is merging reads that shouldn't be merged. The involved file extents are: item 19 key (258 EXTENT_DATA 126976) itemoff 15143 itemsize 53 generation 9 type 1 (regular) extent data disk byte 13635584 nr 4096 extent data offset 110592 nr 16384 ram 131072 extent compression 3 (zstd) item 20 key (258 EXTENT_DATA 143360) itemoff 15090 itemsize 53 generation 9 type 1 (regular) extent data disk byte 13635584 nr 4096 extent data offset 12288 nr 24576 ram 131072 extent compression 3 (zstd) Note that, both extents at 124K and 140K are pointing to the same compressed extent, but with different offset. This means, we reads of range [124K, 140K) and [140K, 165K) should not be merged. But read merge check function, btrfs_bio_is_contig(), is only checking the disk_bytenr of two compressed reads, as there are not enough info like the involved extent maps to do more comprehensive checks, resulting the incorrect compressed read. Unfortunately this is a long existing bug, way before subpage block size support. But subpage block size support (and experimental large folio support) makes it much easier to detect. If block size equals page size, regular page read will only read one block each time, thus no extent map sharing nor merge. (This means for bs == ps cases, it's still possible to hit the bug with readahead, just we don't have test coverage with content verification for readahead) [FIX] Save the last hit compressed extent map start/len into btrfs_bio_ctrl, and check if the current extent map is the same as the saved one. Here we only save em::start/len to save memory for btrfs_bio_ctrl, as it's using the stack memory, which is a very limited resource inside the kernel. Since the compressed extent maps are never merged, their start/len are unique inside the same inode, thus just checking start/len will be enough to make sure they are the same extent map. If the extent maps do not match, force submitting the current bio, so that the read will never be merged.

[PATCH v3 1/3] drm/nouveau: fix error path in nvkm_gsp_fwsec_v2

by Timur Tabi

Function nvkm_gsp_fwsec_v2() sets 'ret' if the kmemdup() call fails, but it never uses or returns 'ret' after that point. We always need to release the firmware regardless, so do that and then check for error.

If the record has already been decrypted (which may be the case for TLS 1.3 where we don't know type until decryption) we queue the pending record to the rx_list. Next recvmsg() will pick it up from there. Queuing the skb to rx_list after zero-copy decrypt is not possible, since in that case we decrypted directly to the user space buffer, and we don't have an skb to queue (darg.skb points to the ciphertext skb for access to metadata like length). Only data records are allowed zero-copy, and we break the processing loop after each non-data record. So we should never zero-copy and then find out that the record type has changed. The corner case we missed is when the initial record comes from rx_list, and it's zero length.

[REGRESSION] fs: ERR_PTR dereference in expand_files() on v6.12.43

by Nathan Gao

Hi, I noticed an ERR_PTR dereference issue in expand_files() on kernel 6.12.43 when allocating large file descriptor tables. The issue occurs when alloc_fdtable() returns ERR_PTR(-EMFILE) for large nr input, but expand_fdtable() is not properly checking these error returns. dup_fd() seems also have the issue, missing proper ERR_PTR handling. The ERR_PTR return was introduced by d4f9351243c1 ("fs: Prevent file descriptor table allocations exceeding INT_MAX") which adds INT_MAX limit check in alloc_fdtable(). I was able to trigger this with the unshare_test selftest: [ 40.283906] BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffffffffe8 ... [ 40.287436] RIP: 0010:expand_files+0x7e/0x1c0 ... [ 40.366211] Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception Looking at the upstream kernel, this can be addressed by Al Viro's fdtable series [1], which added the ERR_PTR handling in this code path. Perhaps backporting this series, especially 1d3b4be ("alloc_fdtable(): change calling conventions.") would help resolve the issue. Thanks for all the work on stable tree.
