commit 920f893f735e92ba3a1cd9256899a186b161928d upstream.

Wongi and Jungwoo decoded and reported a non-leader exec() related race
which can result in an UAF:

 sys_timer_delete()			exec()
   posix_cpu_timer_del()
   // Observes old leader
   p = pid_task(pid, pid_type);		de_thread()
   					  switch_leader();
					  release_task(old_leader)
					    __exit_signal(old_leader)
					      sighand = lock(old_leader, sighand);
					      posix_cpu_timers*_exit();
   sighand = lock_task_sighand(p)	      unhash_task(old_leader);
     sh = lock(p, sighand)	    	      old_leader-&gt;sighand = NULL;
					      unlock(sighand);
     (p-&gt;sighand == NULL)
	unlock(sh)
	return NULL;

   // Returns without action
   if(!sighand)
      return 0;
   free_posix_timer();

This is "harmless" unless the deleted timer was armed and enqueued in
p-&gt;signal because on exec() a TGID targeted timer is inherited.

As sys_timer_delete() freed the underlying posix timer object
run_posix_cpu_timers() or any timerqueue related add/delete operations on
other timers will access the freed object's timerqueue node, which results
in an UAF.

There is a similar problem vs. posix_cpu_timer_set(). For regular posix
timers it just transiently returns -ESRCH to user space, but for the use
case in do_cpu_nanosleep() it's the same UAF just that the k_itimer is
allocated on the stack.

Also posix_cpu_timer_rearm() fails to rearm the timer, which means it stops
to expire.

While debating solutions Frederic pointed out another problem:

   posix_cpu_timer_del(tmr)
					__exit_signal(p)
					  posix_cpu_timers*_exit(p);
					  unhash_task(p);
					  p-&gt;sighand = NULL;
     sh = lock_task_sighand(p)
        sighand = p-&gt;sighand;
	if (!sighand)
	    return NULL;
	lock(sighand);

     if (!sh)
	WARN_ON_ONCE(timer_queued(tmr));

On weakly ordered architectures it is not guaranteed that
posix_cpu_timer_del() will observe the stores in posix_cpu_timers*_exit()
when p-&gt;sighand is observed as NULL, which means the WARN() can be a false
positive.

Solve these issues by:

  1) Changing the store in __exit_signal() to smp_store_release().

  2) Adding a smp_acquire__after_ctrl_dep() into the !sighand path
     of lock_task_sighand().

  3) Creating a helper function for looking up the task and locking sighand
     which does not return when sighand == NULL. Instead it retries the
     task lookup and only if that fails it gives up.

  4) Using that helper in the three affected functions.

#1/#2 ensures that the reader side which observes sighand == NULL also
observes all preceeding stores, i.e. the stores in posix_cpu_timers*_exit()
and the ones in unhash_task().

#3 ensures that the above described non-leader exec() situation is handled
gracefully. When the task lookup returns the old leader, but sighand ==
NULL then it retries. In the non-leader exec() case the subsequent task
lookup will observe the new leader due to #1/#2. In normal exit() scenarios
the subsequent lookup fails.

When the task lookup fails, the function also checks whether the timer is
still enqueued and issues a warning if that's the case. Unfortunately there
is nothing which can be done about it, but as the task is already not
longer visible the timer should not be accessed anymore. This check also
requires memory ordering, which is not provided when the first lookup
fails. To achieve that the check is preceeded by a smp_rmb() which pairs
with the smp_wmb() in write_seqlock() in __exit_signal(). That ensures that
the stores in posix_cpu_timers*_exit() are visible.

The history of the non-leader exec() issue goes back to the early days of
posix CPU timers, which stored a pointer to the group leader task in the
timer. That obviously fails when a non-leader exec() switches the leader.
commit e0a70217107e ("posix-cpu-timers: workaround to suppress the problems
with mt exec") added a temporary workaround for that in 2010 which survived
about 10 years. The fix for the workaround changed the task pointer to a
pid pointer, but failed to see the subtle race described above. So the
Fixes tag picks that commit, which seems to be halfways accurate.

Thanks to Frederic Weissbecker, Oleg Nesterov and Peter Zijlstra for
review, feedback and suggestions and to Wongi and Jungwoo for the excellent
bug report and analysis!

<title>mm: refactor mm_access() to not return NULL</title>

[ Upstream commit cd3f8467afd470ccab0de2fbc7c76664af4a0bac ]

mm_access() can return NULL if the mm is not found, but this is handled
the same as an error in all callers, with some translating this into an
-ESRCH error.

Only proc_mem_open() returns NULL if no mm is found, however in this case
it is clearer and makes more sense to explicitly handle the error.
Additionally we take the opportunity to refactor the function to eliminate
unnecessary nesting.

Simplify things by simply returning -ESRCH if no mm is found - this both
eliminates confusing use of the IS_ERR_OR_NULL() macro, and simplifies
callers which would return -ESRCH by returning this error directly.

<title>ext4: fix fd leak in EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT cross-sb validation</title>

<content type='text'>
The backport of upstream commit c143957520c6 ("ext4: validate donor
file superblock early in EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT") uses a bare 'return -EXDEV'
which is safe upstream because the fd is managed via CLASS(fd) with
automatic cleanup (commit 8152f8201088 ("fdget(), more trivial
conversions")).

However, on 6.12.y the ioctl still uses the traditional fdget/fdput
pattern, so the bare return bypasses fdput(donor) at the mext_out label,
leaking the file reference.

Fix by setting err and using goto mext_out.

commit 63c49efc987afefc6b9bb7de083eb8748e0b1789 upstream.

Replace bpf_strlcpy() in bpf_util.h with a sized_strscpy(), which is a
simplified sized_strscpy() from the kernel (lib/string.c [1]). It:
  * takes a count (destination size) parameter
  * guarantees NULL-termination
  * returns the number of characters copied or -E2BIG

Re-define strscpy macro similar to in-kernel implementation [2]: allow
the count parameter to be optional.

Add #ifdef-s to tools/include/linux/args.h, as they may be defined in
other system headers (for example, __CONCAT in sys/cdefs.h).

Fixup the single existing bpf_strlcpy() call in cgroup_helpers.c

commit 9a6a6a3191574a01dcf7a7d9385246d7bc8736bc upstream.

Commit 857d18f23ab1 ("cleanup: Introduce ACQUIRE() and ACQUIRE_ERR() for
conditional locks") accidentally broke the radix tree, VMA userland tests
by including linux/args.h which is not present in the tools/include
directory.

This patch copies this over and adds an #ifdef block to avoid duplicate
__CONCAT declaration in conflict with system headers when we ultimately
include this.

<title>dpll: fix NULL pointer dereference in dpll_msg_add_pin_ref_sync()</title>

commit d2e914a4a0d0f753dbae830264850d044026167c upstream.

When a dpll_pin is shared across multiple dpll_device instances and
those devices are being unregistered (e.g. during driver module removal),
a NULL pointer dereference can occur in dpll_msg_add_pin_ref_sync().

This happens under the following conditions:
 - A pin is registered with two or more dpll devices (dpll_A, dpll_B)
 - The pin has ref_sync pairs with other pins
 - During unregistration of dpll_A's pins, a ref_sync partner pin is
   unregistered first, removing it from dpll_A-&gt;pin_refs
 - But since the partner pin is still registered with dpll_B, its
   dpll_refs is not empty, so dpll_pin_ref_sync_pair_del() does NOT
   run and the partner stays in the pin's ref_sync_pins xarray
 - When the pin itself is then unregistered from dpll_A, the delete
   notification calls dpll_msg_add_pin_ref_sync() which finds the
   partner in ref_sync_pins, passes dpll_pin_available() (partner is
   still registered with dpll_B), but dpll_pin_on_dpll_priv(dpll_A,
   partner) returns NULL because partner was already removed from
   dpll_A-&gt;pin_refs
 - The NULL priv pointer is passed to the driver's ref_sync_get
   callback, which dereferences it

 BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000034

Fix this by skipping ref_sync pins whose priv pointer cannot be resolved
for the current dpll device.
