wifi: virt_wifi: remove SET_NETDEV_DEV to avoid use-after-free

2026-04-11T12:19:34+00:00

commit 789b06f9f39cdc7e895bdab2c034e39c41c8f8d6 upstream. Currently we execute `SET_NETDEV_DEV(dev, &priv->lowerdev->dev)` for the virt_wifi net devices. However, unregistering a virt_wifi device in netdev_run_todo() can happen together with the device referenced by SET_NETDEV_DEV(). It can result in use-after-free during the ethtool operations performed on a virt_wifi device that is currently being unregistered. Such a net device can have the `dev.parent` field pointing to the freed memory, but ethnl_ops_begin() calls `pm_runtime_get_sync(dev->dev.parent)`. Let's remove SET_NETDEV_DEV for virt_wifi to avoid bugs like this: ================================================================== BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __pm_runtime_resume+0xe2/0xf0 Read of size 2 at addr ffff88810cfc46f8 by task pm/606 Call Trace: dump_stack_lvl+0x4d/0x70 print_report+0x170/0x4f3 ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x10/0x10 kasan_report+0xda/0x110 ? __pm_runtime_resume+0xe2/0xf0 ? __pm_runtime_resume+0xe2/0xf0 __pm_runtime_resume+0xe2/0xf0 ethnl_ops_begin+0x49/0x270 ethnl_set_features+0x23c/0xab0 ? __pfx_ethnl_set_features+0x10/0x10 ? kvm_sched_clock_read+0x11/0x20 ? local_clock_noinstr+0xf/0xf0 ? local_clock+0x10/0x30 ? kasan_save_track+0x25/0x60 ? __kasan_kmalloc+0x7f/0x90 ? genl_family_rcv_msg_attrs_parse.isra.0+0x150/0x2c0 genl_family_rcv_msg_doit+0x1e7/0x2c0 ? __pfx_genl_family_rcv_msg_doit+0x10/0x10 ? __pfx_cred_has_capability.isra.0+0x10/0x10 ? stack_trace_save+0x8e/0xc0 genl_rcv_msg+0x411/0x660 ? __pfx_genl_rcv_msg+0x10/0x10 ? __pfx_ethnl_set_features+0x10/0x10 netlink_rcv_skb+0x121/0x380 ? __pfx_genl_rcv_msg+0x10/0x10 ? __pfx_netlink_rcv_skb+0x10/0x10 ? __pfx_down_read+0x10/0x10 genl_rcv+0x23/0x30 netlink_unicast+0x60f/0x830 ? __pfx_netlink_unicast+0x10/0x10 ? __pfx___alloc_skb+0x10/0x10 netlink_sendmsg+0x6ea/0xbc0 ? __pfx_netlink_sendmsg+0x10/0x10 ? __futex_queue+0x10b/0x1f0 ____sys_sendmsg+0x7a2/0x950 ? copy_msghdr_from_user+0x26b/0x430 ? __pfx_____sys_sendmsg+0x10/0x10 ? __pfx_copy_msghdr_from_user+0x10/0x10 ___sys_sendmsg+0xf8/0x180 ? __pfx____sys_sendmsg+0x10/0x10 ? __pfx_futex_wait+0x10/0x10 ? fdget+0x2e4/0x4a0 __sys_sendmsg+0x11f/0x1c0 ? __pfx___sys_sendmsg+0x10/0x10 do_syscall_64+0xe2/0x570 ? exc_page_fault+0x66/0xb0 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f This fix may be combined with another one in the ethtool subsystem: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260322075917.254874-1-alex.popov@linux.com/T/#u Fixes: d43c65b05b848e0b ("ethtool: runtime-resume netdev parent in ethnl_ops_begin") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Alexander Popov Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Reviewed-by: Breno Leitao Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260324224607.374327-1-alex.popov@linux.com Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

commit 744fabc338e87b95c4d1ff7c95bc8c0f834c6d99 upstream. The memcpy function assumes the dynamic array notif->matches is at least as large as the number of bytes to copy. Otherwise, results->matches may contain unwanted data. To guarantee safety, extend the validation in one of the checks to ensure sufficient packet length.

wifi: wilc1000: fix u8 overflow in SSID scan buffer size calculation

2026-04-11T12:19:26+00:00

commit d049e56b1739101d1c4d81deedb269c52a8dbba0 upstream. The variable valuesize is declared as u8 but accumulates the total length of all SSIDs to scan. Each SSID contributes up to 33 bytes (IEEE80211_MAX_SSID_LEN + 1), and with WILC_MAX_NUM_PROBED_SSID (10) SSIDs the total can reach 330, which wraps around to 74 when stored in a u8. This causes kmalloc to allocate only 75 bytes while the subsequent memcpy writes up to 331 bytes into the buffer, resulting in a 256-byte heap buffer overflow. Widen valuesize from u8 to u32 to accommodate the full range.

wifi: ath11k: Pass the correct value of each TID during a stop AMPDU session

2026-04-11T12:19:18+00:00

[ Upstream commit e225b36f83d7926c1f2035923bb0359d851fdb73 ] During ongoing traffic, a request to stop an AMPDU session for one TID could incorrectly affect other active sessions. This can happen because an incorrect TID reference would be passed when updating the BA session state, causing the wrong session to be stopped. As a result, the affected session would be reduced to a minimal BA size, leading to a noticeable throughput degradation. Fix this issue by passing the correct argument from ath11k_dp_rx_ampdu_stop() to ath11k_peer_rx_tid_reo_update() during a stop AMPDU session. Instead of passing peer->tx_tid, which is the base address of the array, corresponding to TID 0; pass the value of &peer->rx_tid[params->tid], where the different TID numbers are accounted for.

wifi: ath11k: Use dma_alloc_noncoherent for rx_tid buffer allocation

2026-04-11T12:19:18+00:00

[ Upstream commit eeadc6baf8b3dcd32787cc84f0473dc2a2850370 ] Currently, the driver allocates cacheable DMA buffers for the rx_tid structure using kzalloc() and dma_map_single(). These buffers are long-lived and can persist for the lifetime of the peer, which is not advisable. Instead of using kzalloc() and dma_map_single() for allocating cacheable DMA buffers, utilize the dma_alloc_noncoherent() helper for the allocation of long-lived cacheable DMA buffers, such as the peer's rx_tid. Since dma_alloc_noncoherent() returns unaligned physical and virtual addresses, align them internally before use within the driver. This ensures proper allocation of non-coherent memory through the kernel helper.

wifi: ath11k: skip status ring entry processing

2026-04-11T12:19:18+00:00

[ Upstream commit 4c2b796be3a12a11ab611917fafdabc9d3862a1d ] If STATUS_BUFFER_DONE is not set for a monitor status ring entry, we don't process the status ring until STATUS_BUFFER_DONE set for that status ring entry. During LMAC reset it may happen that hardware will not write STATUS_BUFFER_DONE tlv in status buffer, in that case we end up waiting for STATUS_BUFFER_DONE leading to backpressure on monitor status ring. To fix the issue, when HP (Head Pointer) + 1 entry is peeked and if DMA is not done and if HP + 2 entry's DMA done is set, replenish HP + 1 entry and start processing in next interrupt. If HP + 2 entry's DMA done is not set, poll onto HP + 1 entry DMA done to be set. Also, during monitor attach HP points to the end of the ring and TP (Tail Pointer) points to the start of the ring. Using ath11k_hal_srng_src_peek() may result in processing invalid buffer for the very first interrupt. Since, HW starts writing buffer from TP. To avoid this issue call ath11k_hal_srng_src_next_peek() instead of calling ath11k_hal_srng_src_peek().

wifi: wlcore: Return -ENOMEM instead of -EAGAIN if there is not enough headroom

2026-03-25T10:06:08+00:00

[ Upstream commit deb353d9bb009638b7762cae2d0b6e8fdbb41a69 ] Since upstream commit e75665dd0968 ("wifi: wlcore: ensure skb headroom before skb_push"), wl1271_tx_allocate() and with it wl1271_prepare_tx_frame() returns -EAGAIN if pskb_expand_head() fails. However, in wlcore_tx_work_locked(), a return value of -EAGAIN from wl1271_prepare_tx_frame() is interpreted as the aggregation buffer being full. This causes the code to flush the buffer, put the skb back at the head of the queue, and immediately retry the same skb in a tight while loop. Because wlcore_tx_work_locked() holds wl->mutex, and the retry happens immediately with GFP_ATOMIC, this will result in an infinite loop and a CPU soft lockup. Return -ENOMEM instead so the packet is dropped and the loop terminates. The problem was found by an experimental code review agent based on gemini-3.1-pro while reviewing backports into v6.18.y.

wifi: libertas: fix use-after-free in lbs_free_adapter()

2026-03-25T10:05:56+00:00

[ Upstream commit 03cc8f90d0537fcd4985c3319b4fafbf2e3fb1f0 ] The lbs_free_adapter() function uses timer_delete() (non-synchronous) for both command_timer and tx_lockup_timer before the structure is freed. This is incorrect because timer_delete() does not wait for any running timer callback to complete. If a timer callback is executing when lbs_free_adapter() is called, the callback will access freed memory since lbs_cfg_free() frees the containing structure immediately after lbs_free_adapter() returns. Both timer callbacks (lbs_cmd_timeout_handler and lbs_tx_lockup_handler) access priv->driver_lock, priv->cur_cmd, priv->dev, and other fields, which would all be use-after-free violations. Use timer_delete_sync() instead to ensure any running timer callback has completed before returning. This bug was introduced in commit 8f641d93c38a ("libertas: detect TX lockups and reset hardware") where del_timer() was used instead of del_timer_sync() in the cleanup path. The command_timer has had the same issue since the driver was first written.
