commit 72e67c118642634c25465db0c8bcfa54c4ce086c upstream.

The size of a sequential zone backing file records the amount of data
written and is used to restore the zone state. A backing file whose size
is equal to the zone capacity is restored as a full zone, while a file
larger than the zone capacity is rejected as invalid.

However, zloop_finish_zone() currently truncates the backing file to the
zone size. For devices with a reduced zone capacity, finishing a zone
therefore creates a backing file larger than the zone capacity. After the
device is removed and later re-added, that zone file is rejected instead
of being restored as a full zone.

Truncate finished sequential zones to the zone capacity, matching the
persistent representation accepted by zloop_update_seq_zone() for a full
zone.

commit ec7607ac4717ff521c9c1e9d8271c26293345513 upstream.

We must validate user-supplied deflate winbits before we pass it to
zlib_deflate_workspacesize(), which triggers BUG_ON() if winbits value is
outside of valid ranges.

commit dde75313eed0b014c437f48dd75c0308b592cbf9 upstream.

Patch series "zram: fix zram issues reported by sashiko".

Sashiko drove by and reported [1] a couple of zram issues:
a possible BUG_ON() in zlib code due to missing winbits range
validation and one possible NULL-ptr dereference in zcomp.
Both are low risk yet still worth fixing.


This patch (of 2):

zram_destroy_comps() resets all compressors and leaves them set to NULL,
including the primary one, which is invalid device state, as now
comp_algorithm_show()-&gt;strcmp() can be called on a NULL compressor.  Set
default primary compressor in zram_destroy_comps().

commit 894913e2d35c46ff19a77530907771ae57862b96 upstream.

Patch series "zram: fix stale scan bounds after reinitialization".

Both writeback_store() and read_block_state() derive their table scan
bounds from zram-&gt;disksize before acquiring dev_lock.  If the device is
reset and reinitialized with a smaller disksize between that read and lock
acquisition, the bound can describe the old table while the scan operates
on the new one.  This can lead to out-of-bounds slot accesses.

Move both bound calculations under dev_lock so each bound remains
consistent with the table throughout its scan.  Keep the fixes separate
because the affected interfaces originate from different commits and can
be backported independently.


This patch (of 2):

writeback_store() calculates the table scan bounds before taking dev_lock.
A reset followed by reconfiguration with a smaller disksize can therefore
replace zram-&gt;table while writeback_store() is waiting for the lock.  Once
it acquires the lock, it sees an initialized device but scans the new
table using the old upper bound, resulting in an out-of-bounds access.

Calculate the number of pages while holding dev_lock so the scan bound
matches the table protected by the lock.

commit 391f057f44a51cc9418da5cba78b014324174264 upstream.

read_block_state() calculates nr_pages before taking dev_lock.  If the
device is reset and reinitialized with a smaller disksize before lock
acquisition, nr_pages still describes the old table.  The subsequent loop
can then call slot_lock() past the end of the newly allocated table.

Read disksize after acquiring dev_lock and checking that the device is
initialized.  The read lock then keeps the table and its bound stable for
the duration of the scan.

commit 95491fb05105b61050cb623a5e0227eb26aa3525 upstream.

null_zone_no() does sect &gt;&gt; ilog2(dev-&gt;zone_size_sects). When
zone_size_sects is 0, ilog2(0) returns -1, producing shift exponent -1
which UBSAN reports as shift-out-of-bounds.

  shift exponent -1 is negative

Syzkaller triggers this by creating a zoned null_blk device via
configfs. The Call Trace shows configfs_write_iter in configfs/file.c
handling a write to power file, which calls nullb_device_power_store in
main.c, which calls null_add_dev in main.c, which calls add_disk in
genhd.c, which triggers partition scan via bdev_disk_changed in
partitions/core.c.

A zoned null_blk device with zone_size 0 should not be legal. Existing
code tries to reject it via is_power_of_2() check in zoned.c and
!zone_size check in main.c, but syzkaller can still reach
null_zone_no() with zone_size_sects 0 via two paths:

1. Direct 0 via configfs: zone_size attribute store in main.c has
NULLB_DEVICE_ATTR(zone_size, ulong, NULL) with no validation callback,
so echo 0 &gt; zone_size succeeds before power store. If zoned is false
at power store time, the !zone_size check in main.c is skipped, and
later zoned set true leaves zone_size 0.

2. Large value overflow: mb_to_sects() in zoned.c does
(sector_t)mb * SZ_1M &gt;&gt; SECTOR_SHIFT which is mb * 2048. If mb is
1UL &lt;&lt; 53 (9PB), mb * 2048 overflows 64-bit to 0. The value is
power-of-two so is_power_of_2() passes, but mb_to_sects() returns 0.

Check for zero zone_size explicitly in null_init_zoned_dev() in
zoned.c, returning -EINVAL with "must be non-zero power-of-two".
Check for zero zone_size_sects after mb_to_sects() conversion,
returning -EINVAL for overflow case. Keep defensive check in
null_zone_no() returning 0 for zero sectors to avoid shift out-of-bounds
even if  zero slips through.

This change should be safe because zone_size is set once in
null_init_zoned_dev() under device lock and never changes after, and 0
is never valid for a zoned device. Returning -EINVAL at init time fails
device creation early with clear error, while defensive return 0 in
null_zone_no() makes zoned command fail via offline zone check.
No new locking is introduced.

commit 95491fb05105b61050cb623a5e0227eb26aa3525 upstream.

null_zone_no() does sect &gt;&gt; ilog2(dev-&gt;zone_size_sects). When
zone_size_sects is 0, ilog2(0) returns -1, producing shift exponent -1
which UBSAN reports as shift-out-of-bounds.

  UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in drivers/block/null_blk/zoned.c:21:14
  shift exponent -1 is negative

Syzkaller triggers this by creating a zoned null_blk device via
configfs. The Call Trace shows configfs_write_iter in configfs/file.c
handling a write to power file, which calls nullb_device_power_store in
main.c, which calls null_add_dev in main.c, which calls add_disk in
genhd.c, which triggers partition scan via bdev_disk_changed in
partitions/core.c.

A zoned null_blk device with zone_size 0 should not be legal. Existing
code tries to reject it via is_power_of_2() check in zoned.c and
!zone_size check in main.c, but syzkaller can still reach
null_zone_no() with zone_size_sects 0 via two paths:

1. Direct 0 via configfs: zone_size attribute store in main.c has
NULLB_DEVICE_ATTR(zone_size, ulong, NULL) with no validation callback,
so echo 0 &gt; zone_size succeeds before power store. If zoned is false
at power store time, the !zone_size check in main.c is skipped, and
later zoned set true leaves zone_size 0.

2. Large value overflow: mb_to_sects() in zoned.c does
(sector_t)mb * SZ_1M &gt;&gt; SECTOR_SHIFT which is mb * 2048. If mb is
1UL &lt;&lt; 53 (9PB), mb * 2048 overflows 64-bit to 0. The value is
power-of-two so is_power_of_2() passes, but mb_to_sects() returns 0.

Check for zero zone_size explicitly in null_init_zoned_dev() in
zoned.c, returning -EINVAL with "must be non-zero power-of-two".
Check for zero zone_size_sects after mb_to_sects() conversion,
returning -EINVAL for overflow case. Keep defensive check in
null_zone_no() returning 0 for zero sectors to avoid shift out-of-bounds
even if  zero slips through.

This change should be safe because zone_size is set once in
null_init_zoned_dev() under device lock and never changes after, and 0
is never valid for a zoned device. Returning -EINVAL at init time fails
device creation early with clear error, while defensive return 0 in
null_zone_no() makes zoned command fail via offline zone check.
No new locking is introduced.

The conversion to explicit netlink serialization dropped the
exclude_sensitive parameter from net_conf_to_skb(), so each caller has
to sanitize by hand. Two dump paths were missed:
drbd_nl_get_connections_dumpit() and the volume-less connection branch
of get_one_status(). Neither op carries GENL_ADMIN_PERM, so any
unprivileged local user could read the CRAM-HMAC secret.

Add a net_conf_to_skb_sanitized() wrapper and route all three callers
through it.

ublk_ctrl_add_dev() memcpy()s the userspace ublksrv_ctrl_dev_info into
ub-&gt;dev_info and then fixes up the fields the driver owns, but misses
-&gt;state and -&gt;ublksrv_pid.

A device added with -&gt;state = UBLK_S_DEV_LIVE passes the
"-&gt;state != UBLK_S_DEV_DEAD" test that ublk_stop_dev_unlocked() uses as its
proxy for "a disk is attached", while -&gt;ub_disk is still NULL, so DEL_DEV
right after ADD_DEV oopses in del_gendisk().  UBLK_S_DEV_QUIESCED plus
UBLK_F_USER_RECOVERY dies one step earlier, in ublk_force_abort_dev().  A
poisoned -&gt;state also gets START_USER_RECOVERY and the char device
read/write path onto a device that was never started, and wedges START_DEV
at -EEXIST.  A poisoned -&gt;ublksrv_pid just makes GET_DEV_INFO report an
unrelated task as the ublk server.

Reset both after the memcpy(), as ublk_detach_disk() does.  Userspace only
ever reads these back, so correcting them silently breaks nothing.

ADD_DEV has copied -&gt;state in unsanitized since ublk was merged, but back
then it was harmless: the gendisk was allocated during ADD_DEV, and both
teardown and the START_DEV -EEXIST check keyed off disk_live() rather than
-&gt;state.  The oops became reachable once the disk allocation moved to
START_DEV and those checks switched to -&gt;state.
