commit b81273a1 upstream. Now that login from util-linux is forced to drop all references to a TTY which it wants to hangup (to reach reference count 1) we are seeing issues with telnet. When login closes its last reference to the slave PTY, it also resets packet mode on the *master* side. And we have a race here. What telnet does is fork+exec of `login'. Then there are two scenarios: * `login' closes the slave TTY and resets thus master's packet mode, but even now telnet properly sets the mode, or * `telnetd' sets packet mode on the master, `login' closes the slave TTY and resets master's packet mode. The former case is OK. However the latter happens in much more cases, by the order of magnitude to be precise. So when one tries to login to such a messed telnet setup, they see the following: inux login: ogin incorrect Note the missing first letters -- telnet thinks it is still in the packet mode, so when it receives "linux login" from `login', it considers "l" as the type of the packet and strips it. SuS does not mention how the implementation should behave. Both BSDs I checked (Free and Net) do not reset the flag upon the last close. By this I am resurrecting an old bug, see References. We are hitting it regularly now, i.e. with updated util-linux, ergo login. Here, I am changing a behavior introduced back in 2.1 times. It would better have a long time testing before goes upstream.

commit 8d0c2d10 upstream. ext3_msg() takes the printk prefix as the second parameter and the format string as the third parameter. Two callers of ext3_msg omit the prefix and pass the format string as the second parameter and the first parameter to the format string as the third parameter. In both cases this string comes from an arbitrary source. Which means the string may contain format string characters, which will lead to undefined and potentially harmful behavior. The issue was introduced in commit 4cf46b67("ext3: Unify log messages in ext3") and is fixed by this patch. Signed-off-by:

commit 2ca39528 upstream. When the new signal handlers are set up, the location of sa_restorer is not cleared, leaking a parent process's address space location to children. This allows for a potential bypass of the parent's ASLR by examining the sa_restorer value returned when calling sigaction(). Based on what should be considered "secret" about addresses, it only matters across the exec not the fork (since the VMAs haven't changed until the exec). But since exec sets SIG_DFL and keeps sa_restorer, this is where it should be fixed. Given the few uses of sa_restorer, a "set" function was not written since this would be the only use. Instead, we use __ARCH_HAS_SA_RESTORER, as already done in other places. Example of the leak before applying this patch: $ cat /proc/$$/maps ... 7fb9f3083000-7fb9f3238000 r-xp 00000000 fd:01 404469 .../libc-2.15.so ... $ ./leak ... 7f278bc74000-7f278be29000 r-xp 00000000 fd:01 404469 .../libc-2.15.so ... 1 0 (nil) 0x7fb9f30b94a0 2 4000000 (nil) 0x7f278bcaa4a0 3 4000000 (nil) 0x7f278bcaa4a0 4 0 (nil) 0x7fb9f30b94a0 ...

commit feca7746 upstream. This patch (as1661) fixes a rather obscure bug in ehci-hcd. In a couple of places, the driver compares the DMA address stored in a QH's overlay region with the address of a particular qTD, in order to see whether that qTD is the one currently being processed by the hardware. (If it is then the status in the QH's overlay region is more up-to-date than the status in the qTD, and if it isn't then the overlay's value needs to be adjusted when the QH is added back to the active schedule.) However, DMA address in the overlay region isn't always valid. It sometimes will contain a stale value, which may happen by coincidence to be equal to a qTD's DMA address. Instead of checking the DMA address, we should check whether the overlay region is active and valid. The patch tests the ACTIVE bit in the overlay, and clears this bit when the overlay becomes invalid (which happens when the currently-executing URB is unlinked). This is the second part of a fix for the regression reported at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1088733Signed-off-by:

commit ab4b7164 upstream. This reverts commit 200e0d99 ("USB: storage: optimize to match the Huawei USB storage devices and support new switch command" and the followup bugfix commit cd060956 ("USB: storage: properly handle the endian issues of idProduct"). The commit effectively added a large number of Huawei devices to the deprecated usb-storage mode switching logic. Many of these devices have been in use and supported by the userspace usb_modeswitch utility for years. Forcing the switching inside the kernel causes a number of regressions as a result of ignoring existing onfigurations, and also completely takes away the ability to configure mode switching per device/system/user. Known regressions caused by this: - Some of the devices support multiple modes, using different switching commands. There are existing configurations taking advantage of this. - There is a real use case for disabling mode switching and instead mounting the exposed storage device. This becomes impossible with switching logic inside the usb-storage driver. - At least on device fail as a result of the usb-storage switching command, becoming completely unswitchable. This is possibly a firmware bug, but still a regression because the device work as expected using usb_modeswitch defaults. In-kernel mode switching was deprecated years ago with the development of the more user friendly userspace alternatives. The existing list of devices in usb-storage was only kept to prevent breaking already working systems. The long term plan is to remove the list, not to add to it.

[This is upstream commit d3b9d7a9. It needs to be backported to kernels as old as 3.2, because it fixes the buggy commit 9dbcaec8 "USB: Handle warm reset failure on empty port."] A USB 3.0 device can transition to the Inactive state if a U1 or U2 exit transition fails. The current code in hub_events simply issues a warm reset, but does not call any pre-reset or post-reset driver methods (or unbind/rebind drivers without them). Therefore the drivers won't know their device has just been reset. hub_events should instead call usb_reset_device. This means hub_port_reset now needs to figure out whether it should issue a warm reset or a hot reset. Remove the FIXME note about needing disconnect() for a NOTATTACHED device. This patch fixes that. Signed-off-by:

[This is upstream commit 24a6078754f28528bc91e7e7b3e6ae86bd936d8. It needs to be backported to kernels as old as 3.2, because it fixes the buggy commit 9dbcaec8 "USB: Handle warm reset failure on empty port."] When a hot reset fails on a USB 3.0 port, the current port reset code recursively calls hub_port_reset inside hub_port_wait_reset. This isn't ideal, since we should avoid recursive calls in the kernel, and it also doesn't allow us to issue multiple warm resets on reset failures. Rip out the recursive call. Instead, add code to hub_port_reset to issue a warm reset if the hot reset fails, and try multiple warm resets before giving up on the port. In hub_port_wait_reset, remove the recursive call and re-indent. The code is basically the same, except: 1. It bails out early if the port has transitioned to Inactive or Compliance Mode after the reset completed. 2. It doesn't consider a connect status change to be a failed reset. If multiple warm resets needed to be issued, the connect status may have changed, so we need to ignore that and look at the port link state instead. hub_port_reset will now do that. 3. It unconditionally sets udev->speed on all types of successful resets. The old recursive code would set the port speed when the second hub_port_reset returned. The old code did not handle connected devices needing a warm reset well. There were only two situations that the old code handled correctly: an empty port needing a warm reset, and a hot reset that migrated to a warm reset. When an empty port needed a warm reset, hub_port_reset was called with the warm variable set. The code in hub_port_finish_reset would skip telling the USB core and the xHC host that the device was reset, because otherwise that would result in a NULL pointer dereference. When a USB 3.0 device reset migrated to a warm reset, the recursive call made the call stack look like this: hub_port_reset(warm = false) hub_wait_port_reset(warm = false) hub_port_reset(warm = true) hub_wait_port_reset(warm = true) hub_port_finish_reset(warm = true) (return up the call stack to the first wait) hub_port_finish_reset(warm = false) The old code didn't want to notify the USB core or the xHC host of device reset twice, so it only did it in the second call to hub_port_finish_reset, when warm was set to false. This was necessary because before patch two ("USB: Ignore xHCI Reset Device status."), the USB core would pay attention to the xHC Reset Device command error status, and the second call would always fail. Now that we no longer have the recursive call, and warm can change from false to true in hub_port_reset, we need to have hub_port_finish_reset unconditionally notify the USB core and the xHC of the device reset. In hub_port_finish_reset, unconditionally clear the connect status change (CSC) bit for USB 3.0 hubs when the port reset is done. If we had to issue multiple warm resets for a device, that bit may have been set if the device went into SS.Inactive and then was successfully warm reset. Signed-off-by:

In preparation for that, make sure all code paths can deal with being called with a NULL udev. The usb_device will not be valid if warm reset was issued because a port transitioned to the Inactive or Compliance Mode on a device connect. This patch should have no effect on current behavior.

It uses ehci_cf_port_reset_rwsem to do this. USB 3.0 hubs can't be under an EHCI host controller, so it makes no sense to down the semaphore for USB 3.0 hubs. It also makes the warm port reset code more complex. Don't down ehci_cf_port_reset_rwsem for USB 3.0 hubs. Signed-off-by:

The prompt to enable DYNAMIC_FTRACE (the ability to nop and enable function tracing at run time) had a confusing statement: "enable/disable ftrace tracepoints dynamically" This was written before tracepoints were added to the kernel, but now that tracepoints have been added, this is very confusing and has confused people enough to give wrong information during presentations. Not only that, I looked at the help text, and it still references that dreaded daemon that use to wake up once a second to update the nop locations and brick NICs, that hasn't been around for over five years.

commit a930d879 upstream. If you open a pipe for neither read nor write, the pipe code will not add any usage counters to the pipe, causing the 'struct pipe_inode_info" to be potentially released early. That doesn't normally matter, since you cannot actually use the pipe, but the pipe release code - particularly fasync handling - still expects the actual pipe infrastructure to all be there. And rather than adding NULL pointer checks, let's just disallow this case, the same way we already do for the named pipe ("fifo") case. This is ancient going back to pre-2.4 days, and until trinity, nobody naver noticed. Reported-by:

commit 8aec0f5d upstream. Looking at mm/process_vm_access.c:process_vm_rw() and comparing it to compat_process_vm_rw() shows that the compatibility code requires an explicit "access_ok()" check before calling compat_rw_copy_check_uvector(). The same difference seems to appear when we compare fs/read_write.c:do_readv_writev() to fs/compat.c:compat_do_readv_writev(). This subtle difference between the compat and non-compat requirements should probably be debated, as it seems to be error-prone. In fact, there are two others sites that use this function in the Linux kernel, and they both seem to get it wrong: Now shifting our attention to fs/aio.c, we see that aio_setup_iocb() also ends up calling compat_rw_copy_check_uvector() through aio_setup_vectored_rw(). Unfortunately, the access_ok() check appears to be missing. Same situation for security/keys/compat.c:compat_keyctl_instantiate_key_iov(). I propose that we add the access_ok() check directly into compat_rw_copy_check_uvector(), so callers don't have to worry about it, and it therefore makes the compat call code similar to its non-compat counterpart. Place the access_ok() check in the same location where copy_from_user() can trigger a -EFAULT error in the non-compat code, so the ABI behaviors are alike on both compat and non-compat. While we are here, fix compat_do_readv_writev() so it checks for compat_rw_copy_check_uvector() negative return values. And also, fix a memory leak in compat_keyctl_instantiate_key_iov() error handling. Acked-by:

commit 0da9dfdd upstream. This fixes CVE-2013-1792. There is a race in install_user_keyrings() that can cause a NULL pointer dereference when called concurrently for the same user if the uid and uid-session keyrings are not yet created. It might be possible for an unprivileged user to trigger this by calling keyctl() from userspace in parallel immediately after logging in. Assume that we have two threads both executing lookup_user_key(), both looking for KEY_SPEC_USER_SESSION_KEYRING. THREAD A THREAD B =============================== =============================== ==>call install_user_keyrings(); if (!cred->user->session_keyring) ==>call install_user_keyrings() ... user->uid_keyring = uid_keyring; if (user->uid_keyring) return 0; <== key = cred->user->session_keyring [== NULL] user->session_keyring = session_keyring; atomic_inc(&key->usage); [oops] At the point thread A dereferences cred->user->session_keyring, thread B hasn't updated user->session_keyring yet, but thread A assumes it is populated because install_user_keyrings() returned ok. The race window is really small but can be exploited if, for example, thread B is interrupted or preempted after initializing uid_keyring, but before doing setting session_keyring. This couldn't be reproduced on a stock kernel. However, after placing systemtap probe on 'user->session_keyring = session_keyring;' that introduced some delay, the kernel could be crashed reliably. Fix this by checking both pointers before deciding whether to return. Alternatively, the test could be done away with entirely as it is checked inside the mutex - but since the mutex is global, that may not be the best way. Signed-off-by:

commit 9a5467bf upstream. Three errors resulting in kernel memory disclosure: 1/ The structures used for the netlink based crypto algorithm report API are located on the stack. As snprintf() does not fill the remainder of the buffer with null bytes, those stack bytes will be disclosed to users of the API. Switch to strncpy() to fix this. 2/ crypto_report_one() does not initialize all field of struct crypto_user_alg. Fix this to fix the heap info leak. 3/ For the module name we should copy only as many bytes as module_name() returns -- not as much as the destination buffer could hold. But the current code does not and therefore copies random data from behind the end of the module name, as the module name is always shorter than CRYPTO_MAX_ALG_NAME. Also switch to use strncpy() to copy the algorithm's name and driver_name. They are strings, after all. Signed-off-by:

However that change was not enough and we should have also disabled the pat_enabled value. Otherwise we end up with: mmap-example:3481 map pfn expected mapping type write-back for [mem 0x00010000-0x00010fff], got uncached-minus ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at /build/buildd/linux-3.8.0/arch/x86/mm/pat.c:774 untrack_pfn+0xb8/0xd0() mem 0x00010000-0x00010fff], got uncached-minus ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at /build/buildd/linux-3.8.0/arch/x86/mm/pat.c:774 untrack_pfn+0xb8/0xd0() ...

Stefan Bader dug in this deep and found out that: "That makes it clearer as this will do reserve_memtype(...) --> pat_x_mtrr_type --> mtrr_type_lookup --> __mtrr_type_lookup And that can return -1/0xff in case of MTRR not being enabled/initialized. Which is not the case (given there are no messages for it in dmesg). This is not equal to MTRR_TYPE_WRBACK and thus becomes _PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS. It looks like the problem starts early in reserve_memtype: if (!pat_enabled) { /* This is identical to page table setting without PAT */ if (new_type) { if (req_type == _PAGE_CACHE_WC) *new_type = _PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS; else *new_type = req_type & _PAGE_CACHE_MASK; } return 0; } This would be what we want, that is clearing the PWT and PCD flags from the supported flags - if pat_enabled is disabled." This patch does that - disabling PAT. Reported-by:

commit dcd9006b upstream. hid_output_raw_report() makes a direct call to usb_control_msg(). However, some USB3 boards have shown that the usb device is not ready during the .probe(). This blocks the entire usb device, and the paired mice, keyboards are not functional. The dmesg output is the following: [ 11.912287] logitech-djreceiver 0003:046D:C52B.0003: hiddev0,hidraw0: USB HID v1.11 Device [Logitech USB Receiver] on usb-0000:00:14.0-2/input2 [ 11.912537] logitech-djreceiver 0003:046D:C52B.0003: logi_dj_probe:logi_dj_recv_query_paired_devices error:-32 [ 11.912636] logitech-djreceiver: probe of 0003:046D:C52B.0003 failed with error -32 Relying on the scheduled call to usbhid_submit_report() fixes the problem. related bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1072082 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1039143 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=840391 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49781Reported-and-tested-by:

commit 4e0855df upstream. This patch removes redundant and unbalanced pci_disable_device() from __e1000_shutdown(). pci_clear_master() is enough, device can go into suspended state with elevated enable_cnt. Bug was introduced in commit 23606cf5 ("e1000e / PCI / PM: Add basic runtime PM support (rev. 4)") in v2.6.35 Signed-off-by:

commit 2069d483 upstream. When a value of a vmaster slave control is changed, the ctl change notification is sometimes ignored. This happens when the master control overrides, e.g. when the corresponding master control is muted. The reason is that slave_put() returns the value of the actual slave put callback, and it doesn't reflect the virtual slave value change. This patch fixes the function just to return 1 whenever a slave value is changed. Signed-off-by:

commit 58ebb34c upstream. Create_stripe_zones returns an error slightly differently to raid0_run and to raid0_takeover_*. The error returned used by the second was wrong and an error would result in mddev->private being set to NULL and sooner or later a crash. So never return NULL, return ERR_PTR(err), not NULL from create_stripe_zones. This bug has been present since 2.6.35 so the fix is suitable for any kernel since then. Signed-off-by:
