2026-05-11libceph: Fix potential out-of-bounds access in __ceph_x_decrypt()Raphael Zimmer
In __ceph_x_decrypt(), a part of the buffer p is interpreted as a ceph_x_encrypt_header, and the magic field of this struct is accessed. This happens without any guarantee that the buffer is large enough to hold this struct. The function parameter ciphertext_len represents the length of the ciphertext to decrypt and is guaranteed to be at most the remaining size of the allocated buffer p. However, this value is not necessarily greater than sizeof(ceph_x_encrypt_header). E.g., a message frame of type FRAME_TAG_AUTH_REPLY_MORE, that is just as long to hold the ciphertext at its end with a ciphertext_len of 8 or less, can trigger an out-of-bounds memory access when accessing hdr->magic. This patch fixes the issue by adding a check to ensure that the decrypted plaintext in the buffer is large enough to represent at least the ceph_x_encrypt_header.

2026-05-11libceph: Fix unnecessarily high ceph_decode_need() for uniform bucketRaphael Zimmer
In crush_decode_uniform_bucket(), the item_weight field of the bucket is set. This is a single field of type u32 since the uniform bucket uses the same weight for all items. The value in ceph_decode_need() is set to (1+b->h.size) * sizeof(u32), which is higher than actually needed. This patch removes the call to ceph_decode_need() with the unnecessarily high value and switches the subsequent operation from ceph_decode_32() to ceph_decode_32_safe(), which already includes the correct bounds check.

2026-05-11libceph: Fix potential out-of-bounds access in crush_decode()Raphael Zimmer
A message of type CEPH_MSG_OSD_MAP containing a crush map with at least one bucket has two fields holding the bucket algorithm. If the values in these two fields differ, an out-of-bounds access can occur. This is the case because the first algorithm field (alg) is used to allocate the correct amount of memory for a bucket of this type, while the second algorithm field inside the bucket (b->alg) is used in the subsequent processing. This patch fixes the issue by adding a check that compares alg and b->alg and aborts the processing in case they differ. Furthermore, b->alg is set to 0 in this case, because the destruction of the crush map also uses this field to determine the bucket type, which can again result in an out-of-bounds access when trying to free the memory pointed to by the fields of the bucket. To correctly free the memory allocated for the bucket in such a case, the corresponding call to kfree is moved from the algorithm-specific crush_destroy_bucket functions to the generic crush_destroy_bucket().

2026-05-10ipv4: Flush the FIB once on multiple nexthop removalCosmin Ratiu
When a device is going down or when a net namespace is deleted, all nexthops on it are removed, and for each nexthop being removed the FIB table is flushed, which does a full trie traversal looking for entries marked RTNH_F_DEAD and removing them. This is O(N x R), with N being number of dev nexthops and R being number of IPv4 routes. The RTNL is held the entire time. When there are many nexthops to be removed and many routing entries, this can result in the RTNL being held for multiple minutes, which causes unhappiness in other processes trying to acquire the RTNL (e.g. systemd-networkd for DHCP renewals). In a complicated deployment with multiple vxlan devices, each having 16K nexthops and a total of 128K ipv4 routes, this is exactly what happens: nexthop_flush_dev() # loops over 16K nexthops -> remove_nexthop() -> __remove_nexthop() -> __remove_nexthop_fib() # marks fi->fib_flags |= RTNH_F_DEAD -> fib_flush() # for EACH nexthop! -> fib_table_flush() # walks the ENTIRE FIB, 128K entries This patch makes use of the previously added FIB flushing signal to only do a single FIB flush after all nexthops to be removed are marked as RTNH_F_DEAD: - __remove_nexthop_fib() no longer flushes the FIB. - nexthop_flush_dev() and flush_all_nexthops() now keep track whether any nexthop was removed and trigger a FIB flush at the end. - a new wrapper is defined, remove_one_nexthop() which calls remove_nexthop() and flushes if necessary. This is intended for places which must remove a single nexthop and shouldn't worry about the need to trigger a FIB flush. For now, the only caller is rtm_del_nexthop(). - The two direct callers of __remove_nexthop() get a WARN_ON_ONCE, since the nh about to be removed should not have any FIB entries referencing it when replacing or inserting a new one. This dramatically improves performance from O(N x R) to O(N + R). Releasing a nexthop reference in remove_nexthop() now no longer frees it. Instead, it is deleted when the last fib_info pointing to it gets freed via free_fib_info_rcu(). All routing code is already careful not to take into consideration routes marked with RTNH_F_DEAD.

2026-05-10sunrpc: start cache request seqno at 1 to fix netlink GET_REQSJeff Layton
sunrpc_cache_requests_snapshot() filters requests with crq->seqno <= min_seqno. The min_seqno for the first netlink dump call is cb->args[0] which is 0. Since next_seqno was initialized to 0, the very first cache request got seqno=0 and was silently skipped by the snapshot (0 <= 0 is true). This caused netlink-based GET_REQS to return 0 pending requests even when a request was queued, preventing mountd from resolving cache entries (particularly expkey/nfsd.fh). The unresolved CACHE_PENDING state blocked all further notifications for the entry, leading to permanent NFS4ERR_DELAY hangs. Start next_seqno at 1 so all requests have seqno >= 1 and pass the snapshot filter when min_seqno is 0.

2026-05-10rxrpc: Also unshare DATA/RESPONSE packets when paged frags are presentHyunwoo Kim
The DATA-packet handler in rxrpc_input_call_event() and the RESPONSE handler in rxrpc_verify_response() copy the skb to a linear one before calling into the security ops only when skb_cloned() is true. An skb that is not cloned but still carries externally-owned paged fragments (e.g. SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG set by splice() into a UDP socket via __ip_append_data, or a chained skb_has_frag_list()) falls through to the in-place decryption path, which binds the frag pages directly into the AEAD/skcipher SGL via skb_to_sgvec(). Extend the gate to also unshare when skb_has_frag_list() or skb_has_shared_frag() is true. This catches the splice-loopback vector and other externally-shared frag sources while preserving the zero-copy fast path for skbs whose frags are kernel-private (e.g. NIC page_pool RX, GRO). The OOM/trace handling already in place is reused.

2026-05-09xskmap: reject TX-only AF_XDP socketsLinpu Yu
XSKMAP entries are used as redirect targets for incoming XDP frames. A TX-only AF_XDP socket lacks an Rx ring and cannot handle redirected traffic, but xsk_map_update_elem() currently allows such sockets to be inserted into the map. Redirecting packets to such a socket on the veth generic-XDP path causes a kernel crash in xsk_generic_rcv(). This became possible after xsk_is_setup_for_bpf_map() was removed from the XSKMAP update path, which allowed bound TX-only sockets to be inserted into the map. Reject TX-only sockets during XSKMAP updates to avoid the crash. They remain fully operational for pure Tx purposes outside XSKMAP.

Delay the register message until after hooks are wired up to avoid unnecessary unregister logs during error unwinding. 2) Fix a NULL dereference by allocating hook ops before adding the table to the per-netns list. Use `synchronize_rcu()` during error unwinding to ensure the table stops processing packets before teardown. Defer audit log register message until all operations succeed. 3) Refactor xtables to use a single `xt_unregister_table_pre_exit` function. Eliminate code duplication by centralizing table unregistration logic within the xtables core. ebtables cannot be changed due to incompatibility. 4) Unregister xtables templates before module removal. This prevents a race condition where userspace instantiates a new table after the pernet unreg removed the current table. 5) Add `xtables_unregister_table_exit` to fully unregister netfilter tables during module removal. Unlink the table from dying lists, then free hook operations. 6) Implement a two-stage removal scheme for ebtables following the x_tables pattern. Assign table->ops while holding the ebt mutex to prevent exposing partially-filled structures. 7) Fix ebtables module initialization race. Register the template last in table initialization functions. Prevent table instantiation before pernet operations are available. 8) Fix a race condition in x_tables module initialization.

2026-05-08sctp: revalidate list cursor after sctp_sendmsg_to_asoc() in SCTP_SENDALLBen Morris
The SCTP_SENDALL path in sctp_sendmsg() iterates ep->asocs with list_for_each_entry_safe(), which caches the next entry in @tmp before the loop body runs. The body calls sctp_sendmsg_to_asoc(), which may drop the socket lock inside sctp_wait_for_sndbuf(). While the lock is dropped, another thread can SCTP_SOCKOPT_PEELOFF the association cached in @tmp, migrating it to a new endpoint via sctp_sock_migrate() (list_del_init() + list_add_tail() to newep->asocs), and optionally close the new socket which frees the association via kfree_rcu(). The cached @tmp can also be freed by a network ABORT for that association, processed in softirq while the lock is dropped. sctp_wait_for_sndbuf() revalidates @asoc (the current entry) on re-lock via the "sk != asoc->base.sk" and "asoc->base.dead" checks, but nothing revalidates @tmp. After a successful return, the iterator advances to the stale @tmp, yielding either a use-after-free (if the peeled socket was closed) or a list-walk onto the new endpoint's list head (type confusion of &newep->asocs as a struct sctp_association *). Both are reachable from CapEff=0; the type-confusion path gives controlled indirect call via the outqueue.sched->init_sid pointer. Fix by re-deriving @tmp from @asoc after sctp_sendmsg_to_asoc() returns. @asoc is known to still be on ep->asocs at that point: the only callers that list_del an association from ep->asocs are sctp_association_free() (which sets asoc->base.dead) and sctp_assoc_migrate() (which changes asoc->base.sk), and sctp_wait_for_sndbuf() checks both under the lock before any successful return; a tripped check propagates as err < 0 and the loop bails before the re-derive. The SCTP_ABORT path in sctp_sendmsg_check_sflags() returns 0 and the loop hits 'continue' before sctp_sendmsg_to_asoc() is ever called, so the @tmp cached by list_for_each_entry_safe() still covers the lock-held free that ba59fb027307 ("sctp: walk the list of asoc safely") was added for.

2026-05-08net: Do not unconditionally turn on carrier when turning off protodownIdo Schimmel
The protodown functionality allows user space to turn off the carrier of a net device: # ip link add name dummy1 up type dummy # ip link add name macvlan1 up link dummy1 type macvlan mode bridge # ip link set dev macvlan1 protodown on $ ip -br link show dev macvlan1 macvlan1@dummy1 DOWN 0a:5c:a3:05:c7:86 <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> When protodown is turned off, the core unconditionally turns on the carrier of the net device: # ip link set dev macvlan1 protodown off $ ip -br link show dev macvlan1 macvlan1@dummy1 UP 0a:5c:a3:05:c7:86 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> This is wrong as it means that a macvlan can end up with a carrier when its lower device does not have a carrier: # ip link set dev dummy1 carrier off $ ip -br link show dev macvlan1 macvlan1@dummy1 LOWERLAYERDOWN 0a:5c:a3:05:c7:86 <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> # ip link set dev macvlan1 protodown on # ip link set dev macvlan1 protodown off $ ip -br link show dev macvlan1 macvlan1@dummy1 UP 0a:5c:a3:05:c7:86 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> Solve this by resolving the linked net device and if one exists, inherit its carrier state when protodown is turned off. Otherwise, if no linked net device exists, as before, simply turn on the carrier. Resolve the linked net device using a new helper and have it return the device itself (in a similar fashion to dev_get_iflink()) if the device does not implement both ndo_get_iflink() and get_link_net(). If the latter is not implemented, it is unclear in which network namespace we should look up the linked net device. Currently, this helper is only used for net devices that support protodown (macvlan and vxlan) and for both it returns the correct result.

The protodown functionality allows user space to turn off the carrier of a net device: # ip link add name dummy1 up type dummy # ip link add name macvlan1 up link dummy1 type macvlan mode bridge # ip link set dev macvlan1 protodown on $ ip -br link show dev macvlan1 macvlan1@dummy1 DOWN 0a:5c:a3:05:c7:86 <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> Different applications can set different protodown reasons, which prevents an application from turning on the carrier of a net device as long as others want it down: # ip link set dev macvlan1 protodown_reason 1 on # ip link set dev macvlan1 protodown_reason 2 on # ip link set dev macvlan1 protodown off Error: Cannot clear protodown, active reasons. # ip link set dev macvlan1 protodown_reason 2 off # ip link set dev macvlan1 protodown off Error: Cannot clear protodown, active reasons. # ip link set dev macvlan1 protodown_reason 1 off # ip link set dev macvlan1 protodown off $ ip -br link show dev macvlan1 macvlan1@dummy1 UP 0a:5c:a3:05:c7:86 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> Unfortunately, this mechanism is not very useful when the carrier of a net device can be toggled by toggling the carrier of its lower device: # ip link set dev macvlan1 protodown on $ ip -br link show dev macvlan1 macvlan1@dummy1 DOWN 0a:5c:a3:05:c7:86 <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> # ip link set dev dummy1 carrier off # ip link set dev dummy1 carrier on $ ip -br link show dev macvlan1 macvlan1@dummy1 UP 0a:5c:a3:05:c7:86 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> Obviously, this is not the intended behavior and it is unlikely to be relied on by anyone. In fact, it is a problem for applications like FRR that use protodown with macvlan on top of a bridge as part of Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP). Solve this by preventing a net device configured with protodown on from gaining carrier by making netif_carrier_on() a NOP when protodown is turned on.

2026-05-08net: shaper: Reject reparenting of existing nodesMohsin Bashir
When an existing node-scope shaper is moved to a different parent via the group operation, the framework fails to update the leaves count on both the old and new parent shapers. Only newly created nodes (handle.id == NET_SHAPER_ID_UNSPEC) trigger the parent leaves increment at line 1039. This causes the parent's leaves counter to diverge from the actual number of children in the xarray. When the node is later deleted, pre_del_node() allocates an array sized by the stale leaves count, but the xarray iteration finds more children than expected, hitting the WARN_ON_ONCE guard and returning -EINVAL. Rather than adding reparenting support with complex leaves count bookkeeping, reject group calls that attempt to change an existing node's parent. Updates to an existing node's rate or leaves under the same parent remain permitted. We expect that for any modification of the topology user should always create new groups and let the kernel garbage collect the leaf-less nodes.

2026-05-08genetlink: free the skb on 'group >= family->n_mcgrps'Alice Ryhl
These methods generally consume ownership of the provided skb, so even if an error path is encountered, the skb is freed. This is because the very first thing they do after some initial setup is to unconditionally consume the skb via consume_skb(skb). Any subsequent errors lead to the core netlink layer freeing the skb. However, there is one check that occurs before ownership is passed, which is the check for the group index. So if this error condition is encountered, then the skb is leaked. This error condition is generally considered a violation of the netlink API, so it's not expected to occur under normal circumstances. For the same reason, no callers check for this error condition, and no callers need to be adjusted. However, we should still follow the same ownership semantics of the rest of the function. Thus, free the skb in this codepath.

2026-05-08net: ethtool: fix NULL pointer dereference in phy_reply_sizeQuan Sun
In phy_prepare_data(), several strings such as 'name', 'drvname', 'upstream_sfp_name', and 'downstream_sfp_name' are allocated using kstrdup(). However, these allocations were not checked for failure. If kstrdup() fails for 'name', it returns NULL while the function continues. This leads to a kernel NULL pointer dereference and panic later in phy_reply_size() when it unconditionally calls strlen() on the NULL pointer. While other strings like 'upstream_sfp_name' might be checked before access in certain code paths, failing to handle these allocations consistently can lead to incomplete data reporting or hidden bugs. Fix this by adding proper NULL checks for all kstrdup() calls in phy_prepare_data() and implement a centralized error handling path using goto labels to ensure all previously allocated resources are freed on failure.

2026-05-08ipv6: flowlabel: enforce per-netns limit for unprivileged callersMaoyi Xie
fl_size, fl_ht and ip6_fl_lock in net/ipv6/ip6_flowlabel.c are file scope and shared across netns. mem_check() reads fl_size to decide whether to deny non-CAP_NET_ADMIN callers. capable() runs against init_user_ns, so an unprivileged user in any non-init userns can push fl_size past FL_MAX_SIZE - FL_MAX_SIZE / 4 and starve every other unprivileged userns on the host. Add struct netns_ipv6::flowlabel_count, bumped and decremented next to fl_size in fl_intern, ip6_fl_gc and ip6_fl_purge. The new field fills the existing 4-byte hole after ipmr_seq, so struct netns_ipv6 stays the same size on 64-bit builds. Bump FL_MAX_SIZE from 4096 to 8192. It has been 4096 since the file was added. Machines and connection counts have grown. mem_check() folds an extra per-netns ceiling into the existing non-CAP_NET_ADMIN conditional. The ceiling is half of the total budget that unprivileged callers have ever been able to use, i.e. (FL_MAX_SIZE - FL_MAX_SIZE / 4) / 2 = 3072 entries. With FL_MAX_SIZE doubled, this preserves the original per-user reach of 3K (what an unprivileged caller could already obtain before this change), while forcing an attacker to spread allocations across at least two netns to exhaust the global non-CAP_NET_ADMIN budget. CAP_NET_ADMIN against init_user_ns still bypasses both caps. The previous patch took ip6_fl_lock across mem_check and fl_intern, so the new flowlabel_count read in mem_check and the new flowlabel_count++ in fl_intern run under the same critical section. flowlabel_count is therefore plain int, like fl_size.

2026-05-08ipv6: flowlabel: take ip6_fl_lock across mem_check and fl_internMaoyi Xie
mem_check() in net/ipv6/ip6_flowlabel.c reads fl_size without holding ip6_fl_lock. fl_intern() takes the lock immediately afterwards. The two checks therefore race against concurrent fl_intern, ip6_fl_gc and ip6_fl_purge writers, which makes the mem_check budget check approximate. Move spin_lock_bh(&ip6_fl_lock) and the matching unlock from fl_intern() into its only caller ipv6_flowlabel_get(). The mem_check() call now runs under the same critical section as the fl_intern() insert, so the budget check is exact. With all writers and the read of fl_size under ip6_fl_lock, convert fl_size from atomic_t to plain int. The four sites that update or read fl_size are fl_intern (insert path), ip6_fl_gc (garbage collector, the !sched check and the per-entry decrement), ip6_fl_purge (per-netns purge), and mem_check (budget check), and all four now run under ip6_fl_lock. This is a prerequisite for adding a per-netns budget alongside fl_size. The follow-up patch adds netns_ipv6::flowlabel_count and folds it into mem_check().

2026-05-08bpf: Free reuseport cBPF prog after RCU grace period.Kuniyuki Iwashima
Eulgyu Kim reported the splat below with a repro. [0] The repro sets up a UDP reuseport group with a cBPF prog and replaces it with a new one while another thread is sending a UDP packet to the group. The reuseport prog is freed by sk_reuseport_prog_free(). bpf_prog_put() is called for "e"BPF prog to destruct through multiple stages while cBPF prog is freed immediately by bpf_release_orig_filter() and bpf_prog_free(). If a reuseport prog is detached from the setsockopt() path (reuseport_attach_prog() or reuseport_detach_prog()), sk_reuseport_prog_free() is called without waiting for RCU readers to complete, resulting in various bugs. Let's defer freeing the reuseport cBPF prog after one RCU grace period. Note "e"BPF prog is safe as is unless the fast path starts to touch fields destroyed in bpf_prog_put_deferred() and __bpf_prog_put_noref().

2026-05-08batman-adv: bla: put backbone reference on failed claim hash insertSven Eckelmann
When batadv_bla_add_claim() fails to insert a new claim into the hash, it leaked a reference to the backbone_gw for which the claim was intended. Call batadv_backbone_gw_put() on the error path to release the reference and avoid leaking the backbone_gw object.

2026-05-08batman-adv: bla: only purge non-released claimsSven Eckelmann
When batadv_bla_purge_claims() goes through the list of claims, it is only traversing the hash list with an rcu_read_lock(). Due to a potential parallel batadv_claim_put(), it can happen that it encounters a claim which was actually in the process of being released+freed by batadv_claim_release(). In this case, backbone_gw is set to NULL before the delayed RCU kfree is started. Calling batadv_bla_claim_get_backbone_gw() is then no longer allowed because it would cause a NULL-ptr derefence. To avoid this, only claims with a valid reference counter must be purged. All others are already taken care of.

2026-05-08batman-adv: bla: prevent use-after-free when deleting claimsSven Eckelmann
When batadv_bla_del_backbone_claims() removes all claims for a backbone, it does this by dropping the link entry in the hash list. This list entry itself was one of the references which need to be dropped at the same time via batadv_claim_put(). But the batadv_claim_put() must not be done before the last access to the claim object in this function. Otherwise the claim might be freed already by the batadv_claim_release() function before the list entry was dropped.

2026-05-08batman-adv: tp_meter: fix tp_num leak on kmalloc failureSven Eckelmann
When batadv_tp_start() or batadv_tp_init_recv() fail to allocate a new tp_vars object, the previously incremented bat_priv->tp_num counter is never decremented. This causes tp_num to drift upward on each allocation failure. Since only BATADV_TP_MAX_NUM sessions can be started and the count is never reduced for these failed allocations, it causes to an exhaustion of throughput meter sessions. In worst case, no new throughput meter session can be started until the mesh interface is removed. The error handling must decrement tp_num releasing the lock and aborting the creation of an throughput meter session Cc: stable@kernel.org Fixes: 33a3bb4a3345 ("batman-adv: throughput meter implementation") Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>
2026-05-08batman-adv: stop caching unowned originator pointers in BAT IVJiexun Wang
BAT IV keeps the last-hop neighbor address in each neigh_node, but some paths also cache an originator pointer derived from a temporary lookup. That pointer is not owned by the neigh_node and may no longer refer to a live originator entry after purge handling runs. Stop storing the auxiliary originator pointer in the BAT IV neighbor state. When BAT IV needs the neighbor originator data, resolve it from the stored neighbor address and drop the reference again after use.

2026-05-08wifi: cfg80211: advance loop vars in cfg80211_merge_profile()John Walker
cfg80211_merge_profile() reassembles a Multi-BSSID non-transmitted BSS profile that has been split across multiple consecutive MBSSID elements. Its while-loop calls cfg80211_get_profile_continuation(ie, ielen, mbssid_elem, sub_elem) but never advances mbssid_elem or sub_elem inside the body. Each iteration therefore searches for a continuation that follows the same fixed pair; the helper returns the same next_mbssid; and the same next_sub bytes are memcpy()'d into merged_ie at a growing offset until the buffer fills. Advance both mbssid_elem and sub_elem to the just-consumed continuation so the next call to cfg80211_get_profile_continuation() searches for a further continuation beyond it (or returns NULL when none exists). A specially-crafted malicious beacon can take advantage of this bug to cause the kernel to spend an excessive amount of time in cfg80211_merge_profile (up to as much as 2ms per beacon received), which could theoretically be abused in some way.

process_register_request() allocates an expectation and then checks whether a conntrack helper is available.

2026-05-08netfilter: nf_conntrack_expect: restore helper propagation via expectationPablo Neira Ayuso
A recent series to fix expectations broke helper propagation via expectation, this mechanism is used by the sip and h323 helper. This also propagates the conntrack helper to expected connections. I changed semantics of exp->helper which now tells us the actual helper that created the expectation. Add an explicit assign_helper field to expectations for this purpose and update helpers to use it. Restore this feature for userspace conntrack helper via ctnetlink nfqueue integration so it is again possible to attach a helper to an expectation, where it makes sense. This is not restored via ctnetlink expectation creation as there is no client for such feature. Use the expectation layer 4 protocol number for the helper lookup for consistency. Make sure the expectation using this helper propagation mechanism also go away when the helper is unregistered.
