Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In March 2025
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: SOF: stream-ipc: Check for cstream nullity in sof_ipc_msg_data()
The nullity of sps->cstream should be checked similarly as it is done in
sof_set_stream_data_offset() function.
Assuming that it is not NULL if sps->stream is NULL is incorrect and can
lead to NULL pointer dereference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/i915/gt: Use spin_lock_irqsave() in interruptible context
spin_lock/unlock() functions used in interrupt contexts could
result in a deadlock, as seen in GitLab issue #13399,
which occurs when interrupt comes in while holding a lock.
Try to remedy the problem by saving irq state before spin lock
acquisition.
v2: add irqs' state save/restore calls to all locks/unlocks in
signal_irq_work() execution (Maciej)
v3: use with spin_lock_irqsave() in guc_lrc_desc_unpin() instead
of other lock/unlock calls and add Fixes and Cc tags (Tvrtko);

(cherry picked from commit c088387ddd6482b40f21ccf23db1125e8fa4af7e)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvmet: Fix crash when a namespace is disabled
The namespace percpu counter protects pending I/O, and we can
only safely diable the namespace once the counter drop to zero.
Otherwise we end up with a crash when running blktests/nvme/058
(eg for loop transport):

as the queue is already torn down when calling submit_bio();
So we need to init the percpu counter in nvmet_ns_enable(), and
wait for it to drop to zero in nvmet_ns_disable() to avoid having
I/O pending after the namespace has been disabled.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix softlockup in arena_map_free on 64k page kernel
On an aarch64 kernel with CONFIG_PAGE_SIZE_64KB=y,
arena_htab tests cause a segmentation fault and soft lockup.
The same failure is not observed with 4k pages on aarch64.
It turns out arena_map_free() is calling
apply_to_existing_page_range() with the address returned by
bpf_arena_get_kern_vm_start(). If this address is not page-aligned
the code ends up calling apply_to_pte_range() with that unaligned
address causing soft lockup.
Fix it by round up GUARD_SZ to PAGE_SIZE << 1 so that the
division by 2 in bpf_arena_get_kern_vm_start() returns
a page-aligned value.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: Add rx_skb of kfree_skb to raw_tp_null_args[].
Yan Zhai reported a BPF prog could trigger a null-ptr-deref [0]
in trace_kfree_skb if the prog does not check if rx_sk is NULL.
Commit c53795d48ee8 ("net: add rx_sk to trace_kfree_skb") added
rx_sk to trace_kfree_skb, but rx_sk is optional and could be NULL.
Let's add kfree_skb to raw_tp_null_args[] to let the BPF verifier
validate such a prog and prevent the issue.
Now we fail to load such a prog:
libbpf: prog 'drop': -- BEGIN PROG LOAD LOG --

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix deadlock when freeing cgroup storage
The following commit
bc235cdb423a ("bpf: Prevent deadlock from recursive bpf_task_storage_[get|delete]")
first introduced deadlock prevention for fentry/fexit programs attaching
on bpf_task_storage helpers. That commit also employed the logic in map
free path in its v6 version.
Later bpf_cgrp_storage was first introduced in
c4bcfb38a95e ("bpf: Implement cgroup storage available to non-cgroup-attached bpf progs")
which faces the same issue as bpf_task_storage, instead of its busy
counter, NULL was passed to bpf_local_storage_map_free() which opened
a window to cause deadlock:

Progs:
- A: SEC("fentry/cgroup_storage_ptr")
- cgid (BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH)
Record the id of the cgroup the current task belonging
to in this hash map, using the address of the cgroup
as the map key.
- cgrpa (BPF_MAP_TYPE_CGRP_STORAGE)
If current task is a kworker, lookup the above hash
map using function parameter @owner as the key to get
its corresponding cgroup id which is then used to get
a trusted pointer to the cgroup through
bpf_cgroup_from_id(). This trusted pointer can then
be passed to bpf_cgrp_storage_get() to finally trigger
the deadlock issue.
- B: SEC("tp_btf/sys_enter")
- cgrpb (BPF_MAP_TYPE_CGRP_STORAGE)
The only purpose of this prog is to fill Prog A's
hash map by calling bpf_cgrp_storage_get() for as
many userspace tasks as possible.
Steps to reproduce:
- Run A;
- while (true) { Run B; Destroy B; }
Fix this issue by passing its busy counter to the free procedure so
it can be properly incremented before storage/smap locking.
