[PATCH] lib/Kconfig.ubsan: Remove 'default UBSAN' from UBSAN_INTEGER_WRAP

by Nathan Chancellor

CONFIG_UBSAN_INTEGER_WRAP is 'default UBSAN', which is problematic for a couple of reasons. The first is that this sanitizer is under active development on the compiler side to come up with a solution that is maintainable on the compiler side and usable on the kernel side. As a result of this, there are many warnings when the sanitizer is enabled that have no clear path to resolution yet but users may see them and report them in the meantime. The second is that this option was renamed from CONFIG_UBSAN_SIGNED_WRAP, meaning that if a configuration has CONFIG_UBSAN=y but CONFIG_UBSAN_SIGNED_WRAP=n and it is upgraded via olddefconfig (common in non-interactive scenarios such as CI), CONFIG_UBSAN_INTEGER_WRAP will be silently enabled again. Remove 'default UBSAN' from CONFIG_UBSAN_INTEGER_WRAP until it is ready for regular usage and testing from a broader community than the folks actively working on the feature.

[PATCH bpf v2] libbpf: Fix buffer overflow in bpf_object__init_prog

by Viktor Malik

As reported by CVE-2025-29481 [1], it is possible to corrupt a BPF ELF file such that arbitrary BPF instructions are loaded by libbpf. This can be done by setting a symbol (BPF program) section offset to a large (unsigned) number such that <section start + symbol offset> overflows and points before the section data in the memory. Consider the situation below where: - prog_start = sec_start + symbol_offset <-- size_t overflow here - prog_end = prog_start + prog_size prog_start sec_start prog_end sec_end | | | | v v v v .....................|################################|............ The CVE report in [1] also provides a corrupted BPF ELF which can be used as a reproducer: $ readelf -S crash Section Headers: [Nr] Name Type Address Offset Size EntSize Flags Link Info Align ...

Put the above condition back to bpf_object__init_prog to make sure that the program start is also within the bounds of the section to avoid the potential buffer overflow.

[PATCH v3] uio: uio_fsl_elbc_gpcm: Add NULL check in the uio_fsl_elbc_gpcm_probe()

by Henry Martin

devm_kasprintf() returns NULL when memory allocation fails. Currently, uio_fsl_elbc_gpcm_probe() does not check for this case, which results in a NULL pointer dereference.

[PATCH v3] rust: Use `ffi::c_char` type in firmware abstraction `FwFunc`

by Christian Schrefl

The `FwFunc` struct contains an function with a char pointer argument, for which a `*const u8` pointer was used. This is not really the "proper" type for this, so use a `*const kernel::ffi::c_char` pointer instead. This has no real functionality changes, since now `kernel::ffi::c_char` (which bindgen uses for `char`) is now a type alias to `u8` anyways, but before commit 1bae8729e50a ("rust: map `long` to `isize` and `char` to `u8`") the concrete type of `kernel::ffi::c_char` depended on the architecture (However all supported architectures at the time mapped to `i8`). This caused problems on the v6.13 tag when building for 32 bit arm (with my patches), since back then `*const i8` was used in the function argument and the function that bindgen generated used `*const core::ffi::c_char` which Rust mapped to `*const u8` on 32 bit arm. The stable v6.13.y branch does not have this issue since commit 1bae8729e50a ("rust: map `long` to `isize` and `char` to `u8`") was backported. This caused the following build error: ``` error[E0308]: mismatched types --> rust/kernel/firmware.rs:20:4 | 20 | Self(bindings::request_firmware) | ---- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ expected fn pointer, found fn item | | | arguments to this function are incorrect | = note: expected fn pointer `unsafe extern "C" fn(_, *const i8, _) -> _` found fn item `unsafe extern "C" fn(_, *const u8, _) -> _ {request_firmware}` note: tuple struct defined here --> rust/kernel/firmware.rs:14:8 | 14 | struct FwFunc( | ^^^^^^ error[E0308]: mismatched types --> rust/kernel/firmware.rs:24:14 | 24 | Self(bindings::firmware_request_nowarn) | ---- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ expected fn pointer, found fn item | | | arguments to this function are incorrect | = note: expected fn pointer `unsafe extern "C" fn(_, *const i8, _) -> _` found fn item `unsafe extern "C" fn(_, *const u8, _) -> _ {firmware_request_nowarn}` note: tuple struct defined here --> rust/kernel/firmware.rs:14:8 | 14 | struct FwFunc( | ^^^^^^ error[E0308]: mismatched types --> rust/kernel/firmware.rs:64:45 | 64 | let ret = unsafe { func.0(pfw as _, name.as_char_ptr(), dev.as_raw()) }; | ------ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ expected `*const i8`, found `*const u8` | | | arguments to this function are incorrect | = note: expected raw pointer `*const i8` found raw pointer `*const u8` error: aborting due to 3 previous errors ``` Fixes: de6582833db0 ("rust: add firmware abstractions") Cc: stable(a)vger.kernel.org Reviewed-by: Benno Lossin <benno.lossin(a)proton.me> Acked-by: Danilo Krummrich <dakr(a)kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Christian Schrefl <chrisi.schrefl(a)gmail.com> --- Changes in v3: - Clarify build issues with v6.13 in commit message. - Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250412-rust_arm_fix_fw_abstaction-v2-1-8e6fdf09… Changes in v2: - Use `kernel::ffi::c_char` instead of `core::ffi::c_char`.
