Overview

Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mmc: jz4740: Apply DMA engine limits to maximum segment size Do what is done in other DMA-enabled MMC host drivers (cf. host/mmci.c) and limit the maximum segment size based on the DMA engine's capabilities. This is needed to avoid warnings like the following with CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG=y. ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 21 at kernel/dma/debug.c:1162 debug_dma_map_sg+0x2f4/0x39c DMA-API: jz4780-dma 13420000.dma-controller: mapping sg segment longer than device claims to support [len=98304] [max=65536] CPU: 0 PID: 21 Comm: kworker/0:1H Not tainted 5.18.0-rc1 #19 Workqueue: kblockd blk_mq_run_work_fn Stack : 81575aec 00000004 80620000 80620000 80620000 805e7358 00000009 801537ac 814c832c 806276e3 806e34b4 80620000 81575aec 00000001 81575ab8 09291444 00000000 00000000 805e7358 81575958 ffffffea 8157596c 00000000 636f6c62 6220646b 80387a70 0000000f 6d5f6b6c 80620000 00000000 81575ba4 00000009 805e170c 80896640 00000001 00010000 00000000 00000000 00006098 806e0000 ...

  1. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cgroup: Avoid iteration of dying tasks with zero refcount The commit 260fbcb92bbea ("cgroup: Move dying_tasks cleanup from cgroup_task_release() to cgroup_task_free()") extended the lifetime of tasks on the dying_tasks list. The iterators have provision to go through dying_tasks because of dying threadgroup leaders or explicit CSS_TASK_ITER_WITH_DEAD, however, it was expected that such tasks can obtain a new reference (that is possible before cgroup_task_release()/put_task_struct_rcu_user()). The tasks after cgroup_task_release() and before cgroup_task_free() are subject to race when they may or may not have ->usage count > 0. The race window is between css_task_iter_next() invocations when css_set_lock is released and we may arrive at a new ->task_pos. The iterator should not attempt to resurrect tasks whose ->usage count dropped to zero. (When that happens, __put_task_struct_rcu_cb() is already imminent and the returned task_struct would could be used after free.) As for the fix, we cannot simply check the signal->live count of a task on the dying list because that won't distinguish regular zombies waiting to be reaped from RCU remnant tasks that are going to be free'd. Therefore add an extra check to rule out ->usage==0 tasks from any iteration. The repeat: loop in css_task_iter_advance() doesn't consider ->usage count, so add a new loop to css_task_iter_next() to skip de-used tasks on the dying_list.
