2026-05-05wifi: mac80211: set assoc_encrypted for EPP associationsKavita Kavita1-0/+9
Populate the assoc_encrypted field in cfg80211_rx_assoc_resp_data for mac80211-based drivers to indicate that the entire (re)association exchange was encrypted. When epp_peer is set, mac80211 enforces that unprotected (Re)Association Request/Response frames are dropped. This ensures that by the time the (Re)Association Response is processed, the entire exchange was transmitted encrypted over the air. Add support to populate assoc_encrypted based on epp_peer flag.

2026-05-05wifi: cfg80211: indicate (Re)Association frame encryption to userspaceKavita Kavita3-1/+5
In SME-in-driver mode, the driver handles the entire (re)association exchange. Userspace (e.g., wpa_supplicant) currently has no explicit indication of whether the (re)association exchange was encrypted, making it difficult to distinguish EPP (Enhanced Privacy Protection, IEEE 802.11bi) associations from non-EPP associations. When (Re)Association frame encryption is used, the (Re)Association Response frame must contain a Key Delivery element as specified in IEEE P802.11bi/D4.0, Table 9-65. Userspace must process this element only when the (Re)Association Response frame is actually encrypted. Processing it unconditionally for unencrypted frames leads to incorrect behavior. Without an explicit indication from the driver, userspace cannot determine whether encryption was used and whether the Key Delivery element is valid. Add a new flag attribute NL80211_ATTR_ASSOC_ENCRYPTED and a corresponding field "assoc_encrypted" in cfg80211_connect_resp_params to indicate that both the (Re)Association Request and Response frames are transmitted encrypted over the air. For mac80211-based drivers, extend cfg80211_rx_assoc_resp_data with the assoc_encrypted field as well, which is then propagated to cfg80211_connect_resp_params. Pass the flag to userspace via NL80211_CMD_CONNECT event.

2026-05-05nfc: llcp: Fix use-after-free race in nfc_llcp_recv_cc()Lee Jones1-0/+11
A race condition exists in the NFC LLCP connection state machine where the connection acceptance packet (CC) can be processed concurrently with socket release. This can lead to a use-after-free of the socket object. When nfc_llcp_recv_cc() moves the socket from the connecting_sockets list to the sockets list, it does so without holding the socket lock. If llcp_sock_release() is executing concurrently, it might have already unlinked the socket and dropped its references, which can result in nfc_llcp_recv_cc() linking a freed socket into the live list. Fix this by holding lock_sock() during the state transition and list movement in nfc_llcp_recv_cc(). After acquiring the lock, check if the socket is still hashed to ensure it hasn't already been unlinked and marked for destruction by the release path. This aligns the locking pattern with recv_hdlc() and recv_disc().

2026-05-05xfrm: esp: avoid in-place decrypt on shared skb fragsKuan-Ting Chen4-2/+8
MSG_SPLICE_PAGES can attach pages from a pipe directly to an skb. TCP marks such skbs with SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG after skb_splice_from_iter(), so later paths that may modify packet data can first make a private copy. The IPv4/IPv6 datagram append paths did not set this flag when splicing pages into UDP skbs. That leaves an ESP-in-UDP packet made from shared pipe pages looking like an ordinary uncloned nonlinear skb. ESP input then takes the no-COW fast path for uncloned skbs without a frag_list and decrypts in place over data that is not owned privately by the skb. Mark IPv4/IPv6 datagram splice frags with SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG, matching TCP. Also make ESP input fall back to skb_cow_data() when the flag is present, so ESP does not decrypt externally backed frags in place. Private nonlinear skb frags still use the existing fast path. This intentionally does not change ESP output. In esp_output_head(), the path that appends the ESP trailer to existing skb tailroom without calling skb_cow_data() is not reachable for nonlinear skbs: skb_tailroom() returns zero when skb->data_len is nonzero, while ESP tailen is positive. Thus ESP output will either use the separate destination-frag path or fall back to skb_cow_data().

2026-05-04psp: strip variable-length PSP header in psp_dev_rcv()David Carlier1-11/+31
psp_dev_rcv() unconditionally removes a fixed PSP_ENCAP_HLEN, even when psph->hdrlen indicates that the PSP header carries optional fields. A frame whose PSP header advertises a non-zero VC or any extension would therefore be silently mis-decapsulated: option bytes would spill into the inner packet head and downstream parsing would fail on a corrupted skb. Compute the full PSP header length from psph->hdrlen, pull the optional bytes into the linear region, and strip the whole header when decapsulating. Optional fields (VC, ...) are still ignored, just discarded with the rest of the header instead of leaking. crypt_offset and the VIRT flag are intentionally not validated here - callers know their device's PSP implementation and can decide. Both in-tree callers gate on hardware-validated PSP, so this is a correctness fix rather than a reachable corruption path under current configurations.

2026-05-04netpoll: pass buffer size to egress_dev() to avoid MAC truncationBreno Leitao1-10/+13
egress_dev() formats np->dev_mac via snprintf() but receives buf as a bare char *, so it cannot derive the buffer size from the pointer. The size argument was hardcoded to MAC_ADDR_STR_LEN (3 * ETH_ALEN - 1 = 17), which is silly wrong in two ways: 1) misleading kernel log output on the MAC-selected target path (np->dev_name[0] == '\0'); for example "aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff doesn't exist, aborting" was logged as "aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:f doesn't exist, aborting". 2) the second argument of snprintf is the size of the buffer, not the size of what you want to write. Add a bufsz parameter to egress_dev() and pass sizeof(buf) from each caller, matching the standard snprintf() idiom and removing the hardcoded size from the helper. Every caller already declares "char buf[MAC_ADDR_STR_LEN + 1]" so the formatted MAC continues to fit. Tested by booting with netconsole=6665@/aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff,6666@10.0.0.1/00:11:22:33:44:55 on a kernel without a matching device.

2026-05-05ipvs: Guard access of HK_TYPE_KTHREAD cpumask with RCUWaiman Long1-5/+8
The ip_vs_ctl.c file and the associated ip_vs.h file are the only places in the kernel where HK_TYPE_KTHREAD cpumask is being retrieved and used. Now that HK_TYPE_KTHREAD/HK_TYPE_DOMAIN cpumask can be changed at run time. We need to use RCU to guard access to this cpumask to avoid a potential UAF problem as the returned cpumask may be freed before it is being used. We can replace HK_TYPE_KTHREAD by HK_TYPE_DOMAIN as they are aliases of each other, but keeping the HK_TYPE_KTHREAD name can highlight the fact that it is the kthread initiated by ipvs that is being controlled.

2026-05-05ipvs: fix races around est_mutex and est_cpulistJulian Anastasov2-44/+90
Sashiko reports for races and possible crash around the usage of est_cpulist_valid and sysctl_est_cpulist. The problem is that we do not lock est_mutex in some places which can lead to wrong write ordering and as result problems when calling cpumask_weight() and cpumask_empty(). Fix them by moving the est_max_threads read/write under locked est_mutex. Do the same for one ip_vs_est_reload_start() call to protect the cpumask_empty() usage of sysctl_est_cpulist. To remove the chance of deadlock while stopping the estimation kthreads, keep the data structure for kthread 0 even after last estimator is removed and do not hold mutexes while stopping this task. Now we will use a new flag 'needed' to know when kthread 0 should run. The kthreads above 0 do not use mutexes, so stop them under est_mutex because their kthread data still can be destroyed if they do not serve estimators. Now all kthreads will be started by the est_reload_work to properly serialize the stop/start for kthread 0. Reduce the use of service_mutex in ip_vs_est_calc_phase() because under est_mutex we can safely walk est_kt_arr to stop the kthreads above slot 0. As ip_vs_stop_estimator() for tot_stats should be called under service_mutex, do it early in the netns exit path in ip_vs_flush() to avoid locking the mutex again later. It still should be called in ip_vs_control_net_cleanup_sysctl() when we are called during netns init error. Use -2 for ktid as indicator if estimator was already stopped. Finally, fix use-after-free for kd->est_row in ip_vs_est_calc_phase(). est->ktrow should simply switch to a delay value while estimator is linked to est_temp_list.

2026-05-05ipvs: fix the spin_lock usage for RT buildJulian Anastasov1-32/+40
syzbot reports for sleeping function called from invalid context [1]. The recently added code for resizable hash tables uses hlist_bl bit locks in combination with spin_lock for the connection fields (cp->lock). Fix the following problems: * avoid using spin_lock(&cp->lock) under locked bit lock because it sleeps on PREEMPT_RT * as the recent changes call ip_vs_conn_hash() only for newly allocated connection, the spin_lock can be removed there because the connection is still not linked to table and does not need cp->lock protection. * the lock can be removed also from ip_vs_conn_unlink() where we are the last connection user. * the last place that is fixed is ip_vs_conn_fill_cport() where now the cp->lock is locked before the other locks to ensure other packets do not modify the cp->flags in non-atomic way. Here we make sure cport and flags are changed only once if two or more packets race to fill the cport. Also, we fill cport early, so that if we race with resizing there will be valid cport key for the hashing. Add a warning if too many hash table changes occur for our RCU read-side critical section which is error condition but minor because the connection still can expire gracefully. Still, restore the cport to 0 to allow retransmitted packet to properly fill the cport. Problems reported by Sashiko.

2026-05-05ipvs: fix races around the conn_lfactor and svc_lfactor sysctl varsJulian Anastasov2-4/+10
Sashiko warns that the new sysctls vars can be changed after the hash tables are destroyed and their respective resizing works canceled, leading to mod_delayed_work() being called for canceled works. Solve this in different ways. conn_tab can be present even without services and is destroyed only on netns exit, so use disable_delayed_work_sync() to disable the work instead of adding more synchronization mechanisms. As for the svc_table, it is destroyed when the services are deleted, so we must be sure that netns exit is not called yet (the check for 'enable') and the work is not canceled by checking all under same mutex lock. Also, use WRITE_ONCE when updating the sysctl vars as we already read them with READ_ONCE.

2026-05-05ipvs: fixes for the new ip_vs_status infoJulian Anastasov1-15/+36
Sashiko reports some problems for the recently added /proc/net/ip_vs_status: * ip_vs_status_show() as a table reader may run long after the conn_tab and svc_table table are released. While ip_vs_conn_flush() properly changes the conn_tab_changes counter when conn_tab is removed, ip_vs_del_service() and ip_vs_flush() were missing such change for the svc_table_changes counter. As result, readers like ip_vs_dst_event() and ip_vs_status_show() may continue to use a freed table after a cond_resched_rcu() call. * While counting the buckets in ip_vs_status_show() make sure we traverse only the needed number of entries in the chain. This also prevents possible overflow of the 'count' variable. * Add check for 'loops' to prevent infinite loops while restarting the traversal on table change. * While IP_VS_CONN_TAB_MAX_BITS is 20 on 32-bit platforms and there is no risk to overflow when multiplying the number of conn_tab buckets to 100, prefer the div_u64() helper to make the following dividing safer. * Use 0440 permissions for ip_vs_status to restrict the info only to root due to the exported information for hash distribution.

TP meter sessions remain linked on bat_priv->tp_list after the netlink request has already finished. When the mesh interface is removed, batadv_mesh_free() currently tears down the mesh without first draining these sessions. A running sender thread or a late incoming tp_meter packet can then keep processing against a mesh instance which is already shutting down. Synchronize tp_meter with the mesh lifetime by stopping all active sessions from batadv_mesh_free() and waiting for sender threads to exit before teardown continues.

After commit 5e72ce3e3980 ("net: ipv6: Use link netns in newlink() of rtnl_link_ops"), ip6erspan_newlink() correctly resolves the per-netns ip6gre hash via link_net. ip6erspan_changelink() was not converted in that series and still uses dev_net(dev), which diverges from the device's creation netns after IFLA_NET_NS_FD migration. This re-inserts the tunnel into the wrong per-netns hash. The original netns keeps a stale entry. When that netns is later destroyed, ip6gre_exit_rtnl_net() walks the stale entry, producing a slab-use-after-free reported by KASAN, followed by a kernel BUG at net/core/dev.c (LIST_POISON1) in unregister_netdevice_many_notify(). Reachable from an unprivileged user namespace (unshare --user --map-root-user --net). ip6gre_changelink() earlier in the same file already uses the cached t->net; only ip6erspan_changelink() has the wrong shape.

2026-05-02net/sched: sch_sfb: Replace direct dequeue call with peek and ↵Victor Nogueria1-1/+1
qdisc_dequeue_peeked When sfb has children (eg qfq qdisc) whose peek() callback is qdisc_peek_dequeued(), we could get a kernel panic. When the parent of such qdiscs (eg illustrated in patch #3 as tbf) wants to retrieve an skb from its child (sfb in this case), it will do the following: 1a. do a peek() - and when sensing there's an skb the child can offer, then - the child in this case(sfb) calls its child's (qfq) peek. qfq does the right thing and will return the gso_skb queue packet.

qdisc_dequeue_peeked When red qdisc has children (eg qfq qdisc) whose peek() callback is qdisc_peek_dequeued(), we could get a kernel panic. When the parent of such qdiscs (eg illustrated in patch #3 as tbf) wants to retrieve an skb from its child (red in this case), it will do the following: 1a. do a peek() - and when sensing there's an skb the child can offer, then - the child in this case(red) calls its child's (qfq) peek. qfq does the right thing and will return the gso_skb queue packet. Note: if there wasnt a gso_skb entry then qfq will store it there. 1b. invoke a dequeue() on the child (red). And herein lies the problem. - red will call the child's dequeue() which will essentially just try to grab something of qfq's queue.

2026-05-01ipv6: update route serial number on NETDEV_CHANGESagarika Sharma1-0/+1
When using IPv6 ECMP routes, if a netdev listed as a nexthop experiences a carrier change event (e.g., a bond device generating a NETDEV_CHANGE event after its slaves go linkdown), established connections utilizing that nexthop fail to fail over to other available nexthops. Instead, these connections stall or drop. This happens because the IPv6 FIB code does not invalidate the socket's cached destination when a NETDEV_CHANGE event occurs. While fib6_ifdown() correctly marks the nexthop with RTNH_F_LINKDOWN, it leaves the route's serial number unchanged. As a result, sockets with a previously cached dst do not realize the route is no longer viable and continue to try using the non-functional nexthop. This behavior contrasts with IPv4, which actively flushes cached destinations on a NETDEV_CHANGE event (see fib_netdev_event() in net/ipv4/fib_frontend.c). Fix this by updating the route serial number in fib6_ifdown() when setting RTNH_F_LINKDOWN. This invalidates stale cached destinations, forcing sockets to perform a new route lookup and fail over to a functioning nexthop.

2026-05-01net: rtnetlink: zero ifla_vf_broadcast to avoid stack infoleak in ↵Kai Zen1-0/+1
rtnl_fill_vfinfo rtnl_fill_vfinfo() declares struct ifla_vf_broadcast on the stack without initialisation: struct ifla_vf_broadcast vf_broadcast; The struct contains a single fixed 32-byte field: /* include/uapi/linux/if_link.h */ struct ifla_vf_broadcast { __u8 broadcast[32]; }; The function then copies dev->broadcast into it using dev->addr_len as the length: memcpy(vf_broadcast.broadcast, dev->broadcast, dev->addr_len); On Ethernet devices (the overwhelming majority of SR-IOV NICs) dev->addr_len is 6, so only the first 6 bytes of broadcast[] are written. The remaining 26 bytes retain whatever was previously on the kernel stack. The full struct is then handed to userspace via: nla_put(skb, IFLA_VF_BROADCAST, sizeof(vf_broadcast), &vf_broadcast) leaking up to 26 bytes of uninitialised kernel stack per VF per RTM_GETLINK request, repeatable. The other vf_* structs in the same function are explicitly zeroed for exactly this reason - see the memset() calls for ivi, vf_vlan_info, node_guid and port_guid a few lines above. vf_broadcast was simply missed when it was added. Reachability: any unprivileged local process can open AF_NETLINK / NETLINK_ROUTE without capabilities and send RTM_GETLINK with an IFLA_EXT_MASK attribute carrying RTEXT_FILTER_VF. The kernel walks each VF and emits IFLA_VF_BROADCAST, leaking 26 bytes of stack per VF per request. Stack residue at this call site can include return addresses and transient sensitive data; KASAN with stack instrumentation, or KMSAN, will flag the nla_put() when reproduced. Zero the on-stack struct before the partial memcpy, matching the existing pattern used for the other vf_* structs in the same function.
