Message-ID: <2025050138-CVE-2025-37753-9fd7@gregkh> Date: Thu, 1 May 2025 14:56:59 +0200 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> To: linux-cve-announce@...r.kernel.org Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...nel.org> Subject: CVE-2025-37753: s390/cpumf: Fix double free on error in cpumf_pmu_event_init() From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...nel.org> Description =========== In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: s390/cpumf: Fix double free on error in cpumf_pmu_event_init() In PMU event initialization functions - cpumsf_pmu_event_init() - cpumf_pmu_event_init() - cfdiag_event_init() the partially created event had to be removed when an error was detected. The event::event_init() member function had to release all resources it allocated in case of error. event::destroy() had to be called on freeing an event after it was successfully created and event::event_init() returned success. With commit c70ca298036c ("perf/core: Simplify the perf_event_alloc() error path") this is not necessary anymore. The performance subsystem common code now always calls event::destroy() to clean up the allocated resources created during event initialization. Remove the event::destroy() invocation in PMU event initialization or that function is called twice for each event that runs into an error condition in event creation. This is the kernel log entry which shows up without the fix: ------------[ cut here ]------------ refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.

Affected and fixed versions =========================== Issue introduced in 6.15-rc1 with commit c70ca298036c58a88686ff388d3d367e9d21acf0 and fixed in 6.15-rc2 with commit aa1ac98268cd1f380c713f07e39b1fa1d5c7650c Please see https://www.kernel.org for a full list of currently supported kernel versions by the kernel community. Unaffected versions might change over time as fixes are backported to older supported kernel versions. The official CVE entry at https://cve.org/CVERecord/?id=CVE-2025-37753 will be updated if fixes are backported, please check that for the most up to date information about this issue. Affected files ============== The file(s) affected by this issue are: arch/s390/kernel/perf_cpum_cf.c arch/s390/kernel/perf_cpum_sf.c Mitigation ========== The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this issue can be found at these commits: https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/bdbecb2bf531fadbbc9347a79009f7a58ea7eb03 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3a3faf873db5dcd5d2622d8e2accb90af0a86c2d https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ddf60c1491102dab04491481bc3376d3e9cd139d https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/aa1ac98268cd1f380c713f07e39b1fa1d5c7650c
