In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

scsi: target: Fix recursive locking in __configfs_open_file()

In flush_write_buffer, &p->frag_sem is acquired and then the loaded store function is called, which, here, is target_core_item_dbroot_store(). This function called filp_open(), following which these functions were called (in reverse order), according to the call trace:

down_read __configfs_open_file do_dentry_open vfs_open do_open path_openat do_filp_open file_open_name filp_open target_core_item_dbroot_store flush_write_buffer configfs_write_iter

target_core_item_dbroot_store() tries to validate the new file path by trying to open the file path provided to it; however, in this case, the bug report shows:

db_root: not a directory: /sys/kernel/config/target/dbroot

indicating that the same configfs file was tried to be opened, on which it is currently working on. Thus, it is trying to acquire frag_sem semaphore of the same file of which it already holds the semaphore obtained in flush_write_buffer(), leading to acquiring the semaphore in a nested manner and a possibility of recursive locking.

Fix this by modifying target_core_item_dbroot_store() to use kern_path() instead of filp_open() to avoid opening the file using filesystem-specific function __configfs_open_file(), and further modifying it to make this fix compatible.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:mm/mempolicy: fix migrate_to_node() assuming there is at least one VMA in a MMWe currently assume that there is at least one VMA in a MM, which isn ttrue.So we might end up having find_vma() return NULL, to then de-referenceNULL. So properly handle find_vma() returning NULL.This fixes the report:Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000000: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTIKASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000000007]CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 6021 Comm: syz-executor284 Not tainted 6.12.0-rc7-syzkaller-00187-gf868cd251776 #0Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 10/30/2024RIP: 0010:migrate_to_node mm/mempolicy.c:1090 [inline]RIP: 0010:do_migrate_pages+0x403/0x6f0 mm/mempolicy.c:1194Code: ...RSP: 0018:ffffc9000375fd08 EFLAGS: 00010246RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: ffffc9000375fd78 RCX: 0000000000000000RDX: ffff88807e171300 RSI: dffffc0000000000 RDI: ffff88803390c044RBP: ffff88807e171428 R08: 0000000000000014 R09: fffffbfff2039ef1R10: ffffffff901cf78f R11: 0000000000000000 R12: 0000000000000003R13: ffffc9000375fe90 R14: ffffc9000375fe98 R15: ffffc9000375fdf8FS: 00005555919e1380(0000) GS:ffff8880b8700000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033CR2: 00005555919e1ca8 CR3: 000000007f12a000 CR4: 00000000003526f0DR0…
