In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: SEV: Forcefully invalidate SNP VMSA if its backing gmem page is zapped Wire up a gmem_invalidate_range() call for SNP VMs, and use it to force vCPUs to reload/recheck their guest-provided VMSA if the backing gmem page is being invalidated, e.g. is being PUNCH_HOLE'd. Use the same core logic to handle invalidations as VMX does for the APIC-access page, as the two concepts are nearly identical: shove the physical address of a page into the vCPU's control structure: 1. Snapshot the invalidation sequence counter 2. Grab the pfn (from guest_memfd in this case) 3. Acquire mmu_lock for read 4. Re-request reload if retry is needed, otherwise commit the change. Note, the re-request action in #4 is necessary as KVM's retry logic is fuzzy, i.e. can get false positives. If the guest_memfd page has been dropped, at some point a subsequent reload will fail to get a PFN from guest_memfd, and KVM will fail KVM_RUN. If the retry was due to a false positive, KVM will retry until there are no relevant MMU notifier events (and will retry in the "outer" loop, i.e. will drop locks and resched as needed). Note #2! Take care to invalidate the VMSA when a relevant memslot is DELETED or MOVED, as invalidations in response to PUNCH_HOLE are predicated on memslot bindings (KVM doesn't know what GFN range(s) to invalidate without a binding). And more importantly, the VMSA mapping requires a memslot, i.e. must be invalidated if its memslots disappears, regardless of the state of the underlying guest_memfd inode. Failure to invalidate the vCPU's control.vmsa_pa (which is checked by pre_sev_run()) can prevent KVM from properly freeing the page as firmware will reject the RMPUPDATE to reclaim the page with FAIL_INUSE if the vCPU is actively running, i.e. if VMSA page is in-use. That in turn leads to an RMP #PF on the next use, as the page will still be assigned to the SNP VM.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: NFSD: Guard admin state-revocation walks with NFSD_NET_UP Writing to /proc/fs/nfsd/unlock_filesystem, or sending the NFSD_CMD_UNLOCK_FILESYSTEM or NFSD_CMD_UNLOCK_EXPORT netlink command, walks the NFSv4 client hash tables to revoke open state and cancel async COPY operations. All three handlers gate that walk on nn->nfsd_serv, but a listener added via portlist or netlink listener_set sets nn->nfsd_serv before any nfsd thread starts. nfsd_startup_net() has not yet allocated nn->conf_id_hashtbl, so the walkers dereference a NULL table. A local administrator with CAP_SYS_ADMIN can crash the kernel this way without ever starting the server. nn->nfsd_serv is set when the service is created, which precedes table allocation. NFSD_NET_UP instead brackets the window where the tables are live: set at the end of nfsd_startup_net() and cleared in nfsd_shutdown_net() after they are freed, both under nfsd_mutex. Gating the three unlock paths on NFSD_NET_UP fixes the startup-time NULL dereference while preserving the earlier post-shutdown use-after-free fix.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: fix division by zero in get_estimated_bw() get_estimated_bw() divides by link->dpia_bw_alloc_config.bw_granularity, which is zeroed by reset_bw_alloc_struct() and only populated once DP_TUNNELING_BW_ALLOC_CAP_CHANGED has been handled. link_dp_dpia_handle_bw_alloc_status(), the DPCD interrupt handler, calls get_estimated_bw() whenever DP_TUNNELING_ESTIMATED_BW_CHANGED is set, independently of whether DP_TUNNELING_BW_ALLOC_CAP_CHANGED has ever fired for that link. A connected USB4/DPIA tunneling device that reports an estimated-bandwidth change before ever reporting a capability change drives a division by zero in this IRQ path. link_dpia_send_bw_alloc_request() already guards the same bw_granularity division; add the identical guard here rather than introducing a new pattern. (cherry picked from commit f2a961457c33dc34223aad5c9e8971de34a4eed3)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: image: mdc800: change kmalloc() to kzalloc() Change the kmalloc() calls in usb_mdc800_init() for irq_urb_buffer and download_urb_buffer to kzalloc(), avoiding potential stack leaks if a shorter message is received in mdc800_usb_irq() and mdc800_usb_download_notify()

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: usb-audio: fix OOB write in snd_usbmidi_us122l_output() The snd_usbmidi_us122l_output() picks a count of 2 on anything slower than high speed and never relates it to ep->max_transfer. The URB buffer holds exactly max_transfer bytes, so a device declaring a one byte bulk endpoint takes two bytes from snd_rawmidi_transmit(), and the memset that pads the rest computes 1 - 2 in int and wraps to SIZE_MAX. Only 0x800e and 0x800f are pinned to nine bytes. The US-122MKII at 0x0644:0x8021 falls to the default and takes usb_maxpacket(), which the USB core only clamps downward. The akai and novation output ops in this file were given the same guard recently. Do the same here.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb-storage: ene_ub6250: fix race between scan work and probe ene_ub6250_probe() calls usb_stor_probe2(), which starts the usb-storage infrastructure and schedules the delayed scan work. The driver then calls ene_get_card_type(), which sends an ENE command through ene_send_scsi_cmd() and the usb-storage bulk transfer helpers. Both the delayed scan work, through usb_stor_Bulk_max_lun(), and ene_get_card_type() use us->current_urb. The scan work serializes this access with us->dev_mutex, but the ENE card-type probe does not. If the scan work runs while ene_get_card_type() is still using us->current_urb, usb_submit_urb() warns that the URB is already active. Serialize ene_get_card_type() with us->dev_mutex, matching the locking used by the scan path.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: storage: realtek_cr: fix use-after-free on disconnect realtek_cr_destructor() calls timer_delete() before the chip containing the timer is freed. The timer callback may still be running and can rearm itself, resulting in a use-after-free. Use timer_shutdown_sync() to wait for the callback and prevent further rearming. Do this unconditionally because ss_en may be changed after the timer is armed. Move timer_setup() into init_realtek_cr() so the timer is initialized before any failure path can invoke the destructor. Found by static analysis.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: typec: hd3ss3220: track VBUS enable state per consumer regulator_is_enabled() reports the aggregate regulator state, not whether this consumer holds an enable reference. If another consumer enables VBUS first, the driver can skip its own regulator_enable() call and later attempt to drop a reference it never acquired, triggering an unbalanced regulator disable warning. Track successful enable and disable calls locally. Keep the state unchanged when an operation fails so a later role or ID notification retries the operation while this consumer keeps balanced references.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: midi2: Fix null-pointer dereference in f_midi2_free_ep_reqs A null-pointer dereference occurs in f_midi2_free_ep_reqs() when attempting to clean up an endpoint that was never initialized. When configuring the MIDI 2.0 gadget via configfs and setting the block direction to SNDRV_UMP_DIR_INPUT, the initialization of the midi1_ep_out endpoint is explicitly skipped during the gadget bind phase (f_midi2_bind()). As a result, the usb_ep->card field remains NULL. Later, when the host sets the alternate setting, f_midi2_set_alt() unconditionally stops both the IN and OUT endpoints by calling f_midi2_stop_eps(), which in turn calls f_midi2_free_ep_reqs() for both endpoints. When f_midi2_free_ep_reqs() is called for the uninitialized midi1_ep_out, it attempts to dereference usb_ep->card to determine the number of requests to free, leading to a crash. Fix this by using usb_ep->num_reqs instead of usb_ep->card->info.num_reqs in f_midi2_free_ep_reqs(). usb_ep->num_reqs is correctly set during f_midi2_init_ep() and remains 0 if the endpoint was never initialized, safely avoiding the loop. For consistency, apply the same change to f_midi2_alloc_ep_reqs().

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: f_mass_storage: fix null pointer dereference in fsg_common_set_num_buffers() Previously fsg_num_buffers_validate() was removed as it was not necessary due to Kconfig setting the limits for n from 2 to 256 with default as 2. However, setting the page content in such a way that kstrtou8() reflects n value as either 0 or 1 bypasses these restrictions leading to a null pointer dereference if n is 0. Fix this by adding a check for n < 2 and returning -EINVAL if n is either 0 or 1 consistent with Kconfig logic.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: f_midi: initialize work in f_midi_alloc() f_midi_alloc initializes free_ref to 1 and it can only be incremented when a sound card is registered via f_midi_register_card(). f_midi_register_card() is only called in f_midi_bind() which actually performs INIT_WORK. If f_midi_bind() is never run, work is not initialized and the if condition in f_midi_free becomes true, this results in a warning later in __flush_work as work->func = 0. Fix this by moving INIT_WORK from f_midi_bind() to f_midi_alloc().

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: USB: gadget: fix NULL pointer dereference in gadget_dev_ioctl() gadget_dev_ioctl() reads dev->gadget before acquiring dev->lock, but dev->state is checked after acquiring the lock. Therefore a concurrent bind can change the device state between these operations, which can leave ioctl with a stale NULL gadget pointer and causing a NULL pointer dereference at gadget->ops->ioctl. Read dev->gadget while holding dev->lock so that the gadget pointer and device state are sampled consistently.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: fix null pointer dereference in usb_put_function_instance() usb_put_function_instance() attempts to dereference fd inside fi struct to get mod in uvc_alloc_inst() error path. However, fd is not allocated until later in try_get_usb_function_instance() after allocating fi in uvc_alloc_inst() and thus guranteed to be null in error path. Fix this by adding a null check for fi->fd that returns if fd is null.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xhci: fix lost bounce buffers on TDs spanning several ring segments When a TD reaches a link TRB with data that is not aligned to the endpoint's wMaxPacketSize, xhci_align_td() stages the unalignable tail through the bounce buffer of the ring segment holding that link TRB. xhci_unmap_td_bounce_buffer() later unmaps it and, for IN transfers, copies the data back into the URB's buffer. The enqueue path records the segment that was bounced in td->bounce_seg, under the assumption that a TD never spans more than two ring segments. That assumption does not hold: a TD large enough to span three or more segments crosses several link TRBs and can be bounced at each of them. Only the last one survives in td->bounce_seg, so every earlier bounce buffer is neither copied back nor DMA unmapped. The URB still completes with actual_length equal to the requested length and no error, so the transfer looks successful while a wMaxPacketSize sized hole in the destination buffer silently keeps its previous contents. It also leaks a DMA mapping per dropped bounce. Any sufficiently large and fragmented bulk transfer can hit this. It was found with a USB mass storage device behind xHCI backing a dm-verity target with 512 byte hash blocks, where the stale data is detected rather than silently consumed. The device enumerates as SuperSpeed, so wMaxPacketSize is 1024, while dm-bufio issues one 512 byte bio per hash block. verity_prefetch_io() makes the block layer merge hundreds of them into a single request of up to 512 scatterlist entries of 512 bytes each. At 256 TRBs per ring segment such a TD spans three segments, and every segment boundary falls on an odd multiple of 512, i.e. unaligned to wMaxPacketSize. dm-bufio then caches a hash block holding stale data and dm-verity declares the metadata block corrupted: device-mapper: verity: 8:2: metadata block 10850 is corrupted A reproducer running this under qemu is available at https://github.com/baloo/xhci-verity The bounce state (bounce_buf, bounce_dma, bounce_len, bounce_offs) already lives on the ring segment, so there is nothing extra to track. Keep recording the last bounced segment in td->bounce_seg and, on completion, walk the segments from td->start_seg up to it, unmapping every segment that still has a pending bounce. Stopping at td->bounce_seg rather than td->end_seg matters: a bounce implies the TD continues past that segment's link TRB, so bounce_seg is always strictly before end_seg, and a later TD may already have started in end_seg and been bounced there. Walking that far would copy a foreign bounce buffer into this URB and unmap it twice. It also keeps the walk correct if a TD ever wraps the whole ring so that end_seg == start_seg. [mn: Add ring->num_segs check to prevent unlikely infinite for loop.]

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: samples/damon/mtier: handle damon_stop() failure damon_sample_mtier_stop() assumes its damon_stop() call will always successfully stops the two DAMON contexts. Hence it deallocates the two DAMON contexts after the damon_stop() call. However, if a given context is already stopped, damon_stop() fails and returns an error while letting the DAMON contexts that have not yet stopped keep running. This kind of unexpected early DAMON context stops could happen due to memory allocation failures in kdamond_fn(). Because damon_sample_mtier_stop() just deallocates all DAMON contexts with damon_target and damon_region objects that are linked to the contexts, the execution of the unstopped DAMON context (kdamond) ends up using the memory that freed (use-after-free). Fix the issue by separating the damon_stop() to be invoked per context. Note that DAMON_SYSFS also allows multiple DAMON contexts execution. But, it calls damon_stop() for each context one by one. Hence this issue is only in mtier. For the long term, it would be better to refactor damon_stop() to always ensure stopping all contexts regardless of the failures in the middle. Make this fix in the current way, though, to keep it simple and easy to backport. I will do the refactoring later. The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: samples/damon/wsse: handle damon_start() failure Patch series "samples/damon: handle damon_{start,stop}() failures". All DAMON sample modules are not correctly handling failures from damon_start(). Among those, mtier also has an additional problem for handling of damon_stop() failures. wsse and prcl also have a problem in their damon_call() failure handling. As a result, memory leaks, next DAMON operation disruptions, and use-after-free can happen. Fix those. Note that only the damon_start() failure caused issues can reliably be reproduced. Reproducing those issues require the admin permission, though. This patch (of 6): damon_sample_wsse_start() callers assume it will clean up resources when it fails. And the function does the cleanup for context buildup failures. However, it is not doing the cleanup for damon_start() failure. As a result, when damon_start() fails, it leaks the memory for DAMON context. Free the context in case of the failure to fix the issues. Note that the issue can reliably be reproduced because the module calls damon_start() in the exclusive mode. For example, $ sudo damo start $ echo $$ | sudo tee /sys/module/damon_sample_wsse/parameters/target_pid $ echo Y | sudo tee /sys/module/damon_sample_wsse/parameters/enabled $ sudo cat /proc/allocinfo | grep damon_new_ctx Because the first command is running another DAMON instance, the third command fails the damon_start() call because the new DAMON instance cannot exclusively run. And without this fix, by repeating the third and the fourth commands above, we can show the memory consumption is only increasing due to the leaks. It requires the sudo permission though. The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/damon/core: handle region split failure in apply_min_nr_regions() damon_apply_min_nr_regions() repeatedly split each region until its size becomes small enough to meet the user-defined low limit of the number of regions. The loop assumes the split operation (damon_split_region_at()) will always succeed and create the new region. But the operation could silently fail for memory allocation failures, for example. If such failure happens and the region was the last region, the linked list-based next region fetching returns invalid pointer. As a result, invalid memory dereference and corruption could happen. Even if the corner case is handled, it imposes stress to the allocator by trying split regions for other targets. Fix the issue by breaking all the loops for any region split failure. This means there could be a min_nr_regions violation. It will only rarely happen since the allocation is arguably too small to fail. Even if it happens, it is only temporal. damon_apply_min_nr_regions() will be called again after the aggregation interval. The user impact of the issue should be minor, since the allocation is arguably too small to fail. But, it could still theoretically happen, and the consequence is very bad. This issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dma-buf: dma-heap: don't publish fd before copy_to_user() succeeds DMA_HEAP_IOCTL_ALLOC allocates a dma-buf and installs an fd into the caller's fd table via dma_buf_fd() -> fd_install() before dma_heap_ioctl() copies the result back to userspace. If the trailing copy_to_user() fails, userspace never learns the fd number, but the fd (and the underlying dma-buf reference) are already visible to other threads in the same process and are leaked for the lifetime of the process. The obvious "close it on the failure path" fix is unsafe: once fd_install() has run, another thread can already dup() the fd, send it via SCM_RIGHTS, or close() it and let its number be reused, so a subsequent close_fd() from the ioctl path can operate on an unrelated file. This was pointed out by Christian König on v1 [1]. Restructure the allocation path so that fd_install() is the last, unfailable step of a successful ioctl: 1. heap->ops->allocate() creates the dma_buf. 2. get_unused_fd_flags() reserves an fd number in the caller's fd table without publishing it, so no other thread can observe it. 3. copy_to_user() delivers the fd number to userspace; on failure the fd is returned with put_unused_fd() and the dma_buf reference is dropped with dma_buf_put(), leaving no user- visible state behind. 4. dma_buf_fd_install() publishes the fd and emits the trace_dma_buf_fd tracepoint -- from here on the ioctl cannot fail. A new dma_buf_fd_install() helper is introduced in dma-buf.c to wrap fd_install() together with the DMA_BUF_TRACE() call, preserving the export tracing that dma_buf_fd() provides. dma_heap_ioctl_allocate() is refactored to return the struct dma_buf * directly (returning ERR_PTR on failure) so the caller holds the dmabuf reference across steps 3 and 4. The failure at step 3 is easily reachable from userspace: pass a struct dma_heap_allocation_data that lives in a page whose protection is flipped to PROT_READ between copy_from_user() and copy_to_user() (e.g. via mprotect()). Before this change each such ioctl leaks one dmabuf fd; after it, the fd table is unchanged on failure and only /dev/dma_heap/<name> remains open. No UAPI or heap-driver interface change.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dmaengine: dw-edma: Initialize IRQ data before requesting IRQs dw_edma_irq_request() passes struct dw_edma_irq to request_irq() before dw_edma_channel_setup() fills the back pointer. A shared interrupt can therefore enter the handler with dw_irq->dw still NULL, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. Set the back pointer before installing each handler.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Fix infinite loop in pcpu_freelist push with one possible CPU __pcpu_freelist_push() can loop forever when only one CPU is possible and an NMI re-enters pcpu_freelist_push() while the interrupted context holds that CPU's freelist lock. After the current-CPU fast path fails, the fallback loop walks cpu_possible_mask while skipping the current CPU. With CONFIG_SMP=n, or when an SMP kernel is limited to one possible CPU with nr_cpus=1 or possible_cpus=1, there are no other possible CPUs to examine. The loop therefore makes no lock acquisition attempt and can never make progress. The following stack was observed on a UP system: NMI context: pcpu_freelist_push free_htab_elem htab_map_delete_elem [perf-event BPF program] __perf_event_overflow perf_event_nmi_handler exc_nmi Interrupted context: __pcpu_freelist_push pcpu_freelist_push free_htab_elem htab_map_delete_elem [raw_tp/sys_enter BPF program] __bpf_trace_sys_enter do_syscall_64 raw_res_spin_lock() detects the same-CPU recursive acquisition and returns -EDEADLK, but the subsequent fallback loop has no candidate head on a system with one possible CPU. Restore the extra fallback head that existed before the rqspinlock conversion. Keep the current-CPU fast path, then try the other possible CPUs and finally the extra head. The additional head lets a push, which cannot fail without losing a preallocated element, make progress when the only per-CPU head is held by the interrupted context. Also check the extra head from the pop path so that nodes placed there can be reused.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ima: Check for ERR_PTR from dentry_path() in validate_hash_algo() dentry_path() returns ERR_PTR(-ENAMETOOLONG) when the path exceeds the buffer. validate_hash_algo() passes the result straight to integrity_audit_msg() without checking. ERR_PTR is not NULL, so integrity_audit_message() sees a valid pointer and calls strlen() on it, which faults: BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffffffffdc RIP: 0010:strlen+0x30/0xa0 Call Trace: audit_log_untrustedstring+0x19/0x30 integrity_audit_message+0x366/0x4f0 ima_inode_setxattr+0x512/0x5f0 Check for IS_ERR() and use NULL instead, which makes the audit message skip the name= field instead of crashing.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/huge_memory: transfer the pmd dirty bit to the folio on zap zap_huge_pmd_folio() propagates the pmd young bit to the folio for the file case, but not the dirty bit. The pte path does propagate it, in zap_present_folio_ptes() and so does the pmd split path, in __split_huge_pmd_locked(). For most file mappings the omission is harmless, because writing to a shared file mapping goes through page_mkwrite(), which dirties the folio. tmpfs is different: it has no page_mkwrite(), and vma_wants_writenotify() is false for it, so a *read* fault on a MAP_SHARED tmpfs mapping installs a writable pmd via do_read_fault(). do_read_fault() does not call fault_dirty_shared_page(), so subsequent stores through that mapping set only the hardware dirty bit in the pmd and never call folio_mark_dirty(). A shmem folio allocated by a fault is marked uptodate but not dirty (see the clear: block in shmem_get_folio_gfp()), so PG_dirty is never set at all. Unmapping such a folio - munmap(), or exit_mmap() when the process dies - then loses the only record that it was written, because zap_huge_pmd() drops the pmd without transferring the dirty bit. Reclaim afterwards sees a clean shmem folio: the whole swap-out block in shrink_folio_list() is inside "if (folio_test_dirty(folio))", so pageout() is skipped and the folio falls into __remove_mapping(). There, folio_is_file_lru() is false for a swapbacked folio, so no shadow entry is created and __filemap_remove_folio(folio, NULL) simply empties the i_pages slot. The data is freed without ever being written to swap, and the next fault on that index returns a freshly zeroed folio. This is silent data loss for any process that keeps state in a MAP_SHARED tmpfs segment across an unmap - for example a cache handed from one process generation to the next through /dev/shm. It requires the folio to be PMD-mapped, so it only shows up once shmem THP is enabled (which is what we did in Meta fleet and started noticing crashes); with THP off the pte path transfers the dirty bit correctly. It also only becomes visible when swap is enabled, because with no swap device shmem folios (which are on the anon LRU) are not scanned by reclaim at all, so the clean folio is never dropped. Reproduced on x86_64 with a tmpfs mounted huge=within_size: read-fault a 2MB-backed region, write a known pattern through the resulting mapping, munmap, force reclaim of the cgroup, then re-map and read back. Without this patch the region reads back as zeros and vmstat shows zswpout 0 - the data was discarded rather than swapped. With this patch the region reads back correctly and the pages are swapped out as expected. With huge=never, or when the first touch is a write, the test passes either way.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: perf/x86/intel: Fix kernel address leakages in LBR stack Before Arch LBR gained CPL filtering support, a user-only branch stack could still contain kernel addresses. As a result, kernel branch records may be exposed to user space even when PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_USER is requested. For example, on Intel Tiger Lake, the following command can still report SYSRET/ERET entries with kernel-space from addresses: $ ./perf record -e cycles:p -o - --branch-filter any,save_type,u -- \ ./perf bench syscall basic --loop 1000 | \ ./perf script -i - --fields brstack|tr ' ' '\n'| \ grep -E '0x[89a-f][0-9a-f]{15}' Total time: 0.000 [sec] 0.219000 usecs/op 4,566,210 ops/sec [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.551 MB - ] 0xffffffff93c001c8/0x7f12a2b1d647/P/-/-/16959/SYSRET/- 0xffffffff93c001c8/0x7f12a2b1d5c2/P/-/-/17535/SYSRET/- 0xffffffff93c01928/0x7f12a2861000/P/-/-/6719/ERET/- 0xffffffff93c01928/0x7f12a297a000/P/-/-/8575/ERET/- The problem is that intel_pmu_lbr_filter() does not fully validate the privilege level of sampled entries. It filters some mismatches based on the branch type and the to address, but it does not reject entries whose from address violates the requested branch privilege filter. Fix this by extending software filtering to validate both from and to addresses against br_sel. Any LBR entry contains kernel address does not match the requested user filter is dropped. This prevents kernel addresses from appearing in user-only branch stacks.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: i2c: core: fix debugfs UAF on adapter removal i2c_del_adapter() frees the adapter's debugfs directory before it unregisters the adapter device, but the new_device sysfs attribute stays writable until device_del(). A write racing with removal still reaches i2c_device_probe(), which passes the freed adap->debugfs to debugfs_create_dir() as the new client's parent: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in lookup_noperm_common+0x407/0x430 Read of size 4 at addr ffff88803ef87810 by task syz.0.61/6090 lookup_noperm_common+0x407/0x430 simple_start_creating+0x9c/0x110 debugfs_start_creating+0xdb/0x1a0 debugfs_create_dir+0x24/0x350 i2c_device_probe+0x814/0xbf0 It's technically possible to create a client after i2c_deregister_clients has run. That client will never be unregistered and make wait_for_completion hang. Close the window by removing the new_device attribute at the start of i2c_del_adapter(). device_remove_file() will drain any clients left.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: i2c: mux: Fix channel node leak on adapter add failure i2c_mux_add_adapter() takes a reference to the Device Tree channel node before registering the new adapter. If adapter registration fails, the error path frees the private data without dropping that reference. Release the channel node before freeing the private data.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: arm64: Don't read GMID_EL1 when MTE is disabled __cpuinfo_store_cpu() gates the GMID_EL1 read on the raw ID_AA64PFR1_EL1, so it reads the register even when the kernel has disabled MTE (CONFIG_ARM64_MTE=n or arm64.nomte). KVM sets HCR_EL2.TID5 in that case, and pKVM injects an UNDEF the host cannot handle: Internal error: Oops - Undefined instruction: 0000000002000000 [#1] SMP pc : __cpuinfo_store_cpu+0xf4/0x264 Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task! Only pKVM reaches it, and only after a CPU is offlined and brought back online: its CPU_ON relay sets the host HCR before the CPU enters EL1, while plain nVHE sets it at CPUHP_AP_KVM_ONLINE. Gate the read on the CPU's own ID_AA64PFR1_EL1 with the command-line override applied, and on CONFIG_ARM64_MTE, which no register reflects. The boot CPU stores its registers before init_cpu_features() strips an unsafe override, so clamp against the hardware value here too.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: accel/amdxdna: return early from a zero-length flush SYNC_BO does not constrain its size, so a request for zero bytes reaches drm_clflush_virt_range(), which ends with an unconditional clflushopt(end - 1). For an empty range that is the byte before the mapping, and abo->mem.kva comes from vmap(), so the access lands in the guard page below the vmalloc area and faults: BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffd16fbbc70fff #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI CPU: 7 UID: 1000 Comm: sync_bo_probe RIP: 0010:drm_clflush_virt_range+0x3c/0x70 Call Trace: amdxdna_drm_sync_bo_ioctl+0x124/0x430 [amdxdna] drm_ioctl+0x301/0x4c0 __x64_sys_ioctl+0x115/0x2f0 do_syscall_64+0xa6/0x3d0 Any process that can open the render node can do this.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: accel/ethosu: check MMIO mapping errors in probe devm_platform_ioremap_resource() returns an error pointer when the register resource cannot be mapped. ethosu_probe() stores it and continues until initialization dereferences it through MMIO accessors. Return the mapping error before initializing the device.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: accel/ethosu: fix job completion fence cleanup ethosu_ioctl_submit_job() allocates done_fence before validating buffer handles. Errors after allocation call ethosu_job_err_cleanup(), which frees the job but leaks the uninitialized fence. A scheduler dependency error also lets ethosu_job_run() return before dma_fence_init(). Normal cleanup then passes a zeroed refcount to dma_fence_put(). Release done_fence in the common cleanup path and use dma_fence_was_initialized() to distinguish initialized fences from raw allocations. [robh: also fix goto]

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nvme-fabrics: fix DHCHAP secret leak on parse failure nvmf_parse_options() duplicates dhchap_secret and dhchap_ctrl_secret with match_strdup() before validating the DHHC-1: representation. If validation fails, the parser returns -EINVAL before the temporary string in p is assigned to opts->dhchap_secret or opts->dhchap_ctrl_secret. nvmf_create_ctrl() subsequently frees opts, but nvmf_free_options() cannot release the unassigned temporary string. Each rejected option therefore leaks one allocation. This is easy to miss because valid secrets transfer ownership to opts and are freed normally, while the malformed-secret path still returns the expected -EINVAL to userspace. With CONFIG_NVME_HOST_AUTH enabled, the leak is reachable before the required-option checks and transport lookup. No NVMe-oF target or working transport connection is required; for example, repeatedly writing dhchap_secret=BAD or dhchap_ctrl_secret=BAD to /dev/nvme-fabrics deterministically takes the leaking parse path. Free the temporary string before leaving both validation error paths. Use kfree_sensitive() because the copied option may contain secret material even when its representation is rejected, matching the sensitive cleanup used for stored DHCHAP secrets.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/hugetlb_cma: fix null nodemask dereference in hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio alloc_buddy_hugetlb_folio_with_mpol() can pass a NULL nodemask to alloc_fresh_hugetlb_folio() as a fallback to allocate from all nodes. If order is gigantic, alloc_fresh_hugetlb_folio() propagates the NULL nodemask down to hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio() via alloc_gigantic_frozen_folio(). Additionally, hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio() previously attempted allocation on hugetlb_cma[nid] without verifying if nid is included in the caller's nodemask. Adding a node_isset(nid, *nodemask) check ensures the initial preferred node allocation honors the memory policy / nodemask. However, hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio() dereferences the nodemask in node_isset(nid, *nodemask) and for_each_node_mask(node, *nodemask), leading to a null pointer dereference kernel panic when nodemask is NULL. Fix this by checking if nodemask is NULL in hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio() and defaulting it to cpuset_current_mems_allowed. Enclose the allocation attempts within the cpuset seqcount retry loop so that if the cpuset changes concurrently during allocation, the attempts are retried using the updated nodemask. This ensures that the initial node check and fallback loop safely honor the task's cpuset without violating cpuset constraints or causing NULL pointer dereferences or unexpected allocation failures. From a userspace perspective, this bug allows an unprivileged user to crash the kernel (trigger a panic) by requesting a gigantic hugepage allocation with MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY on a system where CMA is only configured on a subset of NUMA nodes. This can be reproduced by booting a VM with two NUMA nodes, restricting CMA to Node 1 (e.g., hugetlb_cma=1:1G default_hugepagesz=1G hugepagesz=1G hugepages=0), and running a program that allocates a 1GB hugepage area without reserving, restricts allocation to Node 0 using mbind() with MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY, and triggers a page fault: void *ptr = mmap(NULL, 1UL << 30, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_HUGETLB | MAP_HUGE_1GB | MAP_NORESERVE, -1, 0); unsigned long nodemask = 1; /* Node 0 */ mbind(ptr, 1UL << 30, MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY, &nodemask, sizeof(nodemask) * 8, 0); memset(ptr, 0, 1UL << 30); /* Trigger fault */ This results in a NULL pointer dereference: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI RIP: 0010:hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio+0x75/0x120 Call Trace: <TASK> only_alloc_fresh_hugetlb_folio.isra.0+0x2c/0x160 alloc_surplus_hugetlb_folio+0x6d/0x100 alloc_hugetlb_folio+0x3c5/0x660 hugetlb_no_page+0x3d9/0x650

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: parisc: eisa: Fix infinite loop when parsing invalid IRQ value When an invalid value is passed via the "eisa_irq_edge=" kernel command line parameter (e.g. "eisa_irq_edge=16,5"), eisa_irq_setup() prints an error message and continues without advancing the current position. As a result the same invalid value is parsed again and again, causing an infinite loop while the kernel boots. Advance to the next comma-separated entry, or stop parsing when there is no next entry, before continuing so that the remaining entries are processed normally.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: powerpc/kexec_file: Fix null-ptr-def in extra size calculation A static Sashiko AI review identified a potential NULL pointer dereference in kexec_extra_fdt_size_ppc64(). On platforms without any reserved memory regions, get_reserved_memory_ranges() can return 0 while leaving 'rmem' unallocated as NULL. Passing it directly leads to a kernel panic when evaluating 'rmem->nr_ranges'. Add a NULL check for 'rmem' to prevent this crash.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: powerpc/kexec_file: Prevent kexec range truncation Sashiko AI review pointed out the following issue. The __merge_memory_ranges() function incorrectly handles overlapping memory ranges when merging them. Although sort_memory_ranges() sorts all ranges by their start address in ascending order beforehand, the merge logic remains defective in two ways: 1. It compares the current range's start against the previous element (i-1) instead of the running target index (idx) 2. It unconditionally overwrites 'ranges[idx].end' with 'ranges[i].end'. This logic flaw leads to critical memory truncation when a larger memory range completely subsumes subsequent smaller ranges. For example, consider a sorted input array with three ranges: Range A (idx=0): [0x1000 - 0x9000] Range B (i=1): [0x2000 - 0x5000] (completely inside Range A) Range C (i=2): [0x6000 - 0x8000] (completely inside Range A) 1. When i=1 (Range B): ranges[1].start (0x2000) <= ranges[0].end + 1 (0x9001) is TRUE. The code executes: ranges[0].end = ranges[1].end, which erroneously shrinks Range A's end from 0x9000 down to 0x5000. 2. When i=2 (Range C): ranges[2].start (0x6000) <= ranges[1].end + 1 (0x5001) is FALSE. The code falls into the else block, creating a broken new range. As a result, valid memory fragments [0x5001 - 0x5fff] and [0x8001 - 0x9000] are completely lost from the kexec exclude lists, potentially allowing the crash kernel to overwrite active memory, causing data corruption or crashes. Fix this by ensuring the start of the current range is compared against the end of the active merged range (idx), and use max() to safely prevent the outer boundary from being truncated.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: s390/vfio-ap: Fix dereference matrix_mdev->kvm without checking for NULL The ap_driver structure has two fields which are function pointers to callbacks: * .on_config_changed: called at the start of the AP bus scan function to notify the device driver that the host AP configuration has changed and the associated AP devices will be added or removed accordingly. This gives the implementor a chance to evaluate the configuration changes and respond to them before the associated devices are added or removed. * .on_scan_complete: Called at the end of the AP bus scan function to notify the device driver that the host AP configuration has changed and the AP devices have been added or removed accordingly. This gives the implementor the opportunity to respond to the changes after the associated devices are added or removed. These two callbacks are implemented in the vfio_ap device driver via the vfio_ap_on_cfg_changed and vfio_ap_on_scan_complete functions respectively. Within the call stack of these two callback functions the matrix_mdev->kvm->lock mutex is taken without checking whether matrix_mdev->kvm is NULL or not. If matrix_mdev->kvm has never been set, trying to take the lock will trigger a NULL pointer dereference. This patch adds checks for matrix_mdev->kvm == NULL before taking the matrix_mdev->kvm->lock mutex. Note that the matrix_mdev->kvm->lock mutex taken in the vfio_ap_mdev_hot_plug_config function is moved to the calling function along with the matrix_dev->mdevs_lock which is needed there to access the fields of the matrix_mdev. It makes little sense to make the change the check for matrix_mdev->kvm there before taking the kvm->lock mutex only to have to move it out via another patch, so it is done in this patch. It is important to make note of the following: 1. The matrix_dev->guests_lock is acquired at the start of both callback functions. This ensures that matrix_mdev will not be removed via the vfio_ap_mdev_remove function because it too takes matrix_dev_guests_lock before removing the object; so, matrix_mdev will be available for the duration of the callback functions. 2. The matrix_dev->mdevs_lock mutex must be taken in order to access fields within the matrix_mdev structure 3. matrix_mdev->kvm->lock mutex must be taken before the matrix_dev->mdevs_lock to prevent a lockdep splat. 4: The kvm->lock must be held while plugging the guest's AP configuration into its SIE state description via the vfio_ap_mdev_update_guest_apcb function. 5. The vfio_ap_mdev_update_guest_apcb checks matrix_mdev->kvm to verify it is not NULL before doing the hot plug of the guest's AP configuration.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: s390/vfio-ap: Fix missing lock required to access list of ap_matrix_mdev objects In order to traverse or add/remove ap_matrix_mdev objects in the matrix_dev->mdev_list, the matrix_dev->guests_lock mutex must be held. There are two functions that access the list without holding the mutex: vfio_ap_mdev_probe function ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The vfio_ap_mdev_probe function uses the matrix_dev->mdevs_lock mutex to guard the add of a newly created ap_matrix_mdev object to the matrix_dev->mdev_list. This mutex does not protect list access; its purpose is to guard against concurrent access to fields contained in an ap_matrix_mdev object. This could lead to kernel memory corruption or use-after-free if another mdev is created or removed concurrently. The adding of an ap_matrix_mdev object to matrix_dev->mdev_list is now guarded by the matrix_dev->guests_lock which is the correct way to protect against concurrent mdev_list access. Also removed the following two lines of code because the matrix_mdev is allocated via vfio_alloc_device macro which uses kzalloc, so req_trigger and cfg_chg_trigger are already zero-initialised when the struct is allocated before the call to vfio_register_emulated_iommu_dev. This prevents a window whereby these triggers are set to NULL after the device is exposed to userspace. matrix_mdev->req_trigger = NULL; matrix_mdev->cfg_chg_trigger = NULL; vfio_ap_mdev_for_queue function ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The status_show function that supports display of the status attribute of the devices in /sys/bus/ap/devices calls the vfio_ap_mdev_for_queue function which iterates the matrix_dev->mdev_list to find the object representing the queue device whose status is to be displayed. In order to traverse this list, the matrix_dev->guests_lock mutex must be held. To fix this, the guests_lock mutex is taken prior to taking the matrix_dev->mdevs_lock mutex in the status_show function. It is taken there rather than the vfio_ap_mdev_for_queue function - where it is needed - because it must be taken prior to the mdevs_lock mutex in order to adhere to the proper locking order and prevent a lockdep splat; also because the mdevs_lock is needed there to access fields within the matrix_mdev object in that function. See the vfio-ap-locking.rst in the linux kernel tree.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: s390/vfio-ap: Fix NULL deref in status_show() during queue probe When vfio_ap_mdev_probe_queue() creates the sysfs attribute group, the queue's driver data has not yet been set. A concurrent read of the 'status' attribute can therefore call dev_get_drvdata() and get NULL, which is then passed directly to vfio_ap_mdev_for_queue() where q->apqn is unconditionally dereferenced, causing a NULL pointer dereference. Fix this by acquiring the update locks before calling sysfs_create_group(). The status_show() function acquires guests_lock before reading the driver data, so any concurrent read will block until after dev_set_drvdata() has been called and the update locks are released. As a bonus, the APQN no longer needs to be read from the queue struct after allocation — it can be read directly from apdev before allocation and stored in a local variable, which is then assigned to q->apqn once the allocation succeeds.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mtd: mtdoops: free page bitmap when the backing MTD is removed mtdoops_notify_add() allocates oops_page_used when the configured MTD device is registered. mtdoops_notify_remove() detaches from that device but leaves the bitmap allocated. If the same MTD device is later registered again, the add path allocates a new bitmap and overwrites the old pointer, leaking one vmalloc allocation per remove/add cycle. This is only visible when the backing MTD device can disappear and be registered again while mtdoops remains loaded, so the usual static MTD case does not expose it. Free the bitmap after unregistering the dumper and flushing the pending workers, then clear the pointer and page count before a later attach can allocate fresh state. Clearing the pointer also keeps the module exit path from freeing the same bitmap a second time after a remove event.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mtd: rawnand: validate ONFI extended parameter page sections nand_flash_detect_ext_param_page() allocates the length declared by the ONFI parameter page, then treats the data as a fixed header followed by variable-length sections. It reads that header and advances over sections without first proving that the fixed page and each current section fit in the allocation. Reject pages shorter than the fixed header, track the remaining variable area while walking sections, and require the ECC section to contain every field read from struct onfi_ext_ecc_info. Use device-scoped diagnostics that identify the malformed ONFI section.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: batman-adv: mcast: linearize skbuff for packet generation batadv_mcast_forw_packet() and batadv_mcast_forw_scrape() is not only called (indirectly) by the unsharing+linearizing batadv_recv_mcast_packet() handler. When it is called (indirectly) by batadv_mcast_forw_mcsend() then it will be unshared but not linearized. The SKB_LINEAR_ASSERT() can therefore cause a fatal BUG(). The linearization should happen during the expansion of the head because the scrape function can be hit already during the initial batadv_mcast_forw_mode() selection code: * batadv_interface_tx * batadv_mcast_forw_mode * batadv_mcast_forw_mode_by_count() * batadv_mcast_forw_push() -> calls batadv_mcast_forw_expand_head() before everything else * batadv_mcast_forw_push_tvlvs() * batadv_mcast_forw_push_dests() * batadv_mcast_forw_push_adjust_padding() * batadv_mcast_forw_scrape()

Use get_unaligned() to handle this properly on all architectures.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: batman-adv: bla: fix freeing of claims on meshif deletion When the mesh interface is getting deleted, then batadv_bla_del_backbone_claims() (via batadv_bla_purge_backbone_gw()) could make sure that all claims gets removed. But this function is only executed when bat_priv->bla.claim_hash is not NULL. And since batadv_bla_free() is always setting it to NULL before it is (indirectly) called, it was never actually executed. But the batadv_bla_purge_claims() -> batadv_handle_unclaim() is at the moment too fragile because the BLA code is not handling the rehashing in batadv_bla_update_orig_address(). The stored backbone address doesn't have to be the one actually used for the hash bucket selection during the initial adding of the backbone. The batadv_handle_unclaim() can therefore fail to find the respective backbone for the unclaim and then stop the deletion. But the actual backbone_gw object is not needed for the unclaim because all relevant information is always provided by the caller. And the check for the existence of the backbone_gw doesn't provide any additional security check for the deletion of a claim.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: cs35l33: drain threaded IRQ before runtime suspend cs35l33_runtime_suspend() currently switches the codec into regcache_cache_only(true) and powers it down without first quiescing the threaded IRQ registered by devm_request_threaded_irq(). That leaves a window where cs35l33_irq_thread() can still run after suspend has closed off live register access. A running system can reach this during runtime PM while the driver still has critical fault IRQs unmasked. If the threaded handler runs in that window, it reads volatile INT_STATUS_1/2 after cache_only has been enabled, ignores the regmap_read() failures, and can still drive the AMP_SHORT_RLS, CAL_ERR_RLS, OTE_RLS, and OTW_RLS release paths. Use disable_irq() before entering cache_only/power-off so any in-flight threaded handler is drained and no new IRQ thread can run during the suspended state. Re-enable the IRQ only after runtime_resume() has restored live register access with regcache_sync(). Since probe only warns if devm_request_threaded_irq() fails, track whether the IRQ was actually installed before disabling or re-enabling it.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: cs35l34: drain threaded IRQ before runtime suspend cs35l34_runtime_suspend() currently switches the codec into regcache_cache_only(true), asserts reset low, and powers the device off without first quiescing the threaded IRQ registered by devm_request_threaded_irq(). That leaves a window where cs35l34_irq_thread() can still run after suspend has removed live hardware access. A running system can reach this during runtime PM while the driver still has critical fault IRQs unmasked. If the threaded handler runs in that window, it reads volatile INT_STATUS_1..4 after cache_only has been enabled, ignores the regmap_read() failures, and can still execute the PROT_RELEASE_CTL release sequence or the BST fault power-down writes. Use disable_irq() before entering cache_only/reset-low/power-off so any in-flight threaded handler is drained and no new IRQ thread can run while the device is suspended. Re-enable the IRQ only after runtime_resume() has restored live register access with regcache_sync().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iio: dac: m62332: Fix regulator reference count imbalance m62332_set_value() enables the Vcc regulator on every write of a non-zero value and disables it on every write of zero, without tracking the channel's current state. Because the regulator is reference counted, changing a channel directly from one non-zero value to another enables it more than once, while a later write of zero disables it only once. The reference count never returns to zero and the regulator is left enabled indefinitely. Only enable the regulator on the transition from zero to non-zero, and only disable it on the transition from non-zero to zero, using the previously stored channel value to detect the edge. Balance the regulator on the I2C error path so the reference count stays consistent if the write fails.

This is then assigned to wp_info->len, which is an int. The bounds check is done on the truncated value while the allocation uses the untruncated one: wp_info->len = bp_data->len; [...] if (wp_info->len < 0 || wp_info->len > MAX_WP_SIZE) return -EINVAL; wp_info->old_data = kmalloc(bp_data->len, GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT); Use the validated value for the allocation as intended. Without this fix userspace can trigger >4GB allocations which will fail and result in a WARN due to MAX_PAGE_ORDER.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: s390: Fix memory leak in guest debug handling bp_data is freed only for the error case by kfree(bp_data). Every successful KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG will leak bp_data.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: s390: Fix old_data leak in guest debug error path __import_wp_info() allocates a per-watchpoint old_data buffer to back up the original guest memory contents. If a later watchpoint of the same KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG request fails to import, kvm_s390_import_bp_data() jumps to the error label, which frees the wp_info array but not the old_data buffers of the entries that were imported successfully. Up to MAX_BP_COUNT - 1 buffers of up to MAX_WP_SIZE bytes are leaked per failed request, and the request can be repeated. Create error handling for cleaning up all created old_data memory areas.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: s390: Free guest debug data on vcpu destroy kvm_s390_clear_bp_data() is only called from kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_guest_debug(), i.e. when user space changes or disables debugging. A vCPU that is destroyed while hardware breakpoints are still armed - the normal case when the VMM just exits or crashes - leaks hw_bp_info, hw_wp_info and all old_data buffers, since generic KVM frees the vCPU right after kvm_arch_vcpu_destroy(). That is bounded by MAX_BP_COUNT entries, so roughly 8 KiB per vCPU, but it is unbounded over VM lifetimes. The allocations are GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT, so the charge also outlives the exiting process and pins dying memcgs. Fix by clearing the debug data on vCPU destruction. Calling it unconditionally is fine: struct kvm_vcpu is zero allocated, so for a vCPU that never enabled debugging the counters are 0 and the pointers NULL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: s390: Zero initialize data structures for inject_pfault_token __kvm_inject_pfault_token() only sets .type and .u.ext.ext_params2 of the on-stack struct kvm_s390_irq but the full ext substructure is copied into the cpu local variable on inject. ext_params and pad contain stale stack values. Interrupt delivery only uses ext_params2, so nothing leaks to the guest, but a host user can use the migration ioctls to get to the data. Fix by zero-initializing the irq struct. Do the same for the inti data structure.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: arm64: Handle VNCR TLB invalidation race with vcpu_put() VNCR unmapping While VNCR TLB invalidation always occurs under the MMU lock, vcpu_put() doesn't, while it unmaps the VNCR page. The problem is that the invalidation evaluates vncr_tlb::cpu to decide whether an unmapping needs to take place (cpu != -1) before performing it. On the other hand, this_cpu_reset_vncr_fixmap() unconditionally unmaps if L1_VNCR_MAPPED is set. These two obviously can race, with a TOCTOU pattern on the TLBI path, and a BUG_ON() on the vcpu_put() path. And the two can end-up calling vncr_fixmap(-1), with extra lethal effects. Move the reset of vncr_tlb::cpu to -1 to a common function, and make this update atomic so that only a single thread can reset the field and perform the corresponding unmap. The vcpu_put() still need to unconditionally unmap the current VNCR to close another ugly race. Finally, the assignment of vncr_tlb::cpu is moved to be kept in sync with the actual mapping, similar to L1_VNCR_MAPPED being set.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: LoongArch: KVM: Free init resources if kvm_init() fails kvm_loongarch_init() calls kvm_loongarch_env_init() to allocate the per-CPU kvm_context (vmcs) and kvm_loongarch_ops and to register the perf callbacks, and then calls kvm_init(). If kvm_init() fails its result is returned directly, but since module_init() does not run the module_exit() stuff on failure, so kvm_loongarch_env_exit() is never called and those resources are leaked. So call kvm_loongarch_env_exit() when kvm_init() fails, matching the teardown-on-failure pattern used by riscv_kvm_init().

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: LoongArch: BPF: Move arena register slot below TCC context Currently, the stack layout places the optional arena register slot above the tail call counter context. When arena_vm_start is dynamically enabled, it shifts the relative offset of the tcc_ptr slot within the stack frame, causing hardcoded tracking macros to mismatch and leading to memory misalignment or corruption potentially. To fix this, move the arena register save and restore sequences below the tail call counter context slots in both build_prologue() and the epilogue. Update __build_epilogue() to insert a proper offset decrement to safely skip the unneeded tcc_ptr reading block while accurately aligning with the relocated arena slot at the very bottom. With this patch, the tcc_ptr slot is always positioned at a fixed distance directly underneath the base callee-saved registers that is independent of whether the arena features are on.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: airspy: use vb2_video_unregister_device() on disconnect to fix NULL deref airspy_disconnect() clears s->udev under v4l2_lock, but airspy_stop_streaming() unconditionally calls airspy_ctrl_msg() and airspy_free_stream_bufs() afterwards. If a streaming user closes the device after disconnect, stop_streaming() runs and dereferences the NULL s->udev: airspy_stop_streaming() airspy_ctrl_msg(s, CMD_RECEIVER_MODE, 0, 0, NULL, 0) usb_sndctrlpipe(s->udev, 0) /* NULL deref */ airspy_free_stream_bufs(s) usb_free_coherent(s->udev, ...) /* NULL deref */ The airspy driver uses vb2_fop_release() in its file_operations, so replace video_unregister_device(&s->vdev) with vb2_video_unregister_device(&s->vdev) and move it before clearing s->udev. vb2_video_unregister_device() releases the vb2 queue, which synchronously runs airspy_stop_streaming() if streaming is active, so the URBs, coherent DMA stream buffers and the hardware stop control message all execute while s->udev is still valid. vb2_video_unregister_device() locks vdev->queue->lock (vb_queue_lock) internally, and stop_streaming() locks v4l2_lock, so the previous outer mutex_lock(&s->vb_queue_lock) / mutex_lock(&s->v4l2_lock) pair around the unregister sequence would self-deadlock and has been removed. A short v4l2_lock critical section around s->udev = NULL remains so any ioctl path that still holds the file descriptor sees coherent state.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: cec: core: Fix kmemleak due to missed rc_free_device() call The commit dccc0c3ddf8f ("media: rc: fix race between unregister and urb/irq callbacks") removed the implicit call to rc_free_device() from rc_unregister_device(). However, the commit missed to remove the NULL assignment of adap->rc that is now causing rc_free_device() to never be called on an allocated rc device. kmemleak reports following after e.g. dw-hdmi unbind: unreferenced object 0xffff00010ac10000 (size 4096): comm "kworker/u16:1", pid 39, jiffies 4294897739 hex dump (first 32 bytes): 20 23 4b 0a 01 00 ff ff 08 00 c1 0a 01 00 ff ff #K............. 08 00 c1 0a 01 00 ff ff 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ backtrace (crc e11baccc): kmemleak_alloc+0x38/0x44 __kmalloc_cache_noprof+0x4a8/0x5e0 rc_allocate_device+0x48/0x2a0 cec_allocate_adapter+0x3ac/0x800 dw_hdmi_cec_probe+0x264/0x634 platform_probe+0xc0/0x188 really_probe+0x4a4/0x8e0 __driver_probe_device+0x2f8/0x440 driver_probe_device+0x60/0x160 __device_attach_driver+0x1a0/0x2a0 bus_for_each_drv+0x100/0x1a0 __device_attach+0x174/0x350 device_initial_probe+0x90/0xb0 bus_probe_device+0x4c/0x120 device_add+0xdec/0x116c platform_device_add+0x354/0x598 Remove the assignment of adap->rc to NULL to let cec_delete_adapter() free the allocated rc device after last user of the cec device exits to fix the kmemleak.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: cedrus: fix memory leak in cedrus_init_ctrls() In cedrus_init_ctrls(), the V4L2 control handler is initialized before allocating memory for ctx->ctrls. If this allocation fails, the function returns -ENOMEM without freeing the previously allocated handler resources, leading to a memory leak. Fix this by calling v4l2_ctrl_handler_free() on the ctx->ctrls allocation failure path. The bug was first flagged by an experimental analysis tool we are developing for kernel memory-management bugs while analyzing v6.13-rc1. The tool is still under development and is not yet publicly available. Manual inspection confirms that the bug is still present in v7.1.1. An x86_64 allyesconfig build showed no new warnings. As we do not have an Allwinner SoC or board with a Cedrus VPU available to test with, no runtime testing was able to be performed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: cobalt: Avoid freeing ALSA private data twice snd_cobalt_card_create() stores cobsc in sc->private_data and installs snd_cobalt_card_private_free() as sc->private_free. From that point, snd_card_free(sc) releases cobsc through the ALSA card cleanup path. If cobalt_alsa_init() fails after snd_cobalt_card_create(), the err_exit_free path calls snd_card_free(sc) and then kfree(cobsc). That second free releases the same object again. Remove the explicit kfree(cobsc) and leave ownership with the ALSA card. This issue was found by a static analysis checker and confirmed by manual source review.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: em28xx: defer audio-only extension registration The audio-only path registers extensions while probing the primary device. For a dual-TS board, this happens before dev_next is created. The duplicate device inherits is_audio_only and is then independently inserted into em28xx_devlist. The list is intended to contain only primary devices: extension operations reach the secondary device through dev_next. The independently linked secondary can be freed during disconnect while its list node remains reachable, resulting in a use-after-free. Defer audio-only extension registration to the module-request work item. It runs only after probing has completed construction of the optional secondary device, so only the primary is registered and extension callbacks reach the secondary through dev_next.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: em28xx: fix use-after-free of dev_next->devlist on disconnect When a device with has_dual_ts=1 is probed and the is_audio_only path is taken, both dev and dev->dev_next are added to the global em28xx_devlist via em28xx_init_extension(). However, during disconnect, em28xx_close_extension(dev) only calls list_del(&dev->devlist), leaving dev->dev_next->devlist still linked in the global list. When dev_next is subsequently freed via kref_put(), its devlist entry becomes a dangling pointer in em28xx_devlist. The next device probe that calls em28xx_init_extension() triggers a list corruption BUG when list_add_tail detects the freed node. This bug was exposed by commit a368ecde8a50 ("USB: core: Fix duplicate endpoint bug by clearing reserved bits in the descriptor") which clears reserved bits in bEndpointAddress during endpoint parsing. This causes fuzzed endpoint addresses like 0xf3 to be normalized to 0x83, which em28xx interprets as a vendor audio endpoint, enabling the is_audio_only + has_dual_ts code path that was previously unreachable with such descriptors. Fix this by removing dev->dev_next->devlist from the global list in em28xx_close_extension() before the device is freed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: i2c: imx415: Release runtime PM reference on VBLANK error The VBLANK path returned immediately when programming VMAX failed after pm_runtime_get_if_in_use() had taken a runtime PM reference. Break out of the switch instead so the common pm_runtime_put() path is used.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: intel/ipu6: fix async notifier cleanup leak on parse error isys_notifier_init() calls v4l2_async_nf_init() and then adds fwnode remote subdevs in a loop with v4l2_async_nf_add_fwnode_remote(). If an endpoint parse or add fails partway through the loop, it jumps to err_parse and returns without calling v4l2_async_nf_cleanup(), leaking every v4l2_async_connection already added to the notifier's waiting list. The register-failure path just below already cleans up correctly, and the caller only tears the notifier down (isys_notifier_cleanup()) once isys_notifier_init() has returned success. Clean up the notifier on the parse error path too.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: rtl2832_sdr: use vb2_video_unregister_device() on remove to fix DMA leak rtl2832_sdr_remove() runs on USB disconnect and clears dev->udev to NULL before any pending streaming teardown has run. When user space later closes its file descriptor, vb2 calls rtl2832_sdr_stop_streaming() which in turn calls rtl2832_sdr_free_stream_bufs(). That helper releases each coherent buffer with: usb_free_coherent(dev->udev, dev->buf_size, dev->buf_list[dev->buf_num], dev->dma_addr[dev->buf_num]); usb_free_coherent() returns immediately when its dev argument is NULL, so every DMA stream buffer that was live at disconnect is silently leaked. The URBs allocated in rtl2832_sdr_alloc_urbs() outlive the device for the same reason. The rtl2832_sdr driver uses vb2_fop_release() in its file_operations, so replace video_unregister_device(&dev->vdev) with vb2_video_unregister_device(&dev->vdev) and move it before clearing dev->udev. vb2_video_unregister_device() releases the vb2 queue, which synchronously runs rtl2832_sdr_stop_streaming() if streaming is active, so URBs and coherent DMA stream buffers are freed while dev->udev is still valid. vb2_video_unregister_device() locks vdev->queue->lock (vb_queue_lock) internally, and stop_streaming() locks v4l2_lock, so the previous outer mutex_lock(&dev->vb_queue_lock) / mutex_lock(&dev->v4l2_lock) pair around the unregister sequence would self-deadlock and has been removed. A short v4l2_lock critical section around dev->udev = NULL remains so any ioctl path that still holds the file descriptor sees coherent state.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: s2255: bound JPEG frame size before copying into the buffer s2255_fillbuff() memcpy()s vc->jpg_size bytes of a captured JPEG/MJPEG frame into the vb2 plane. vc->jpg_size is taken verbatim from the S2255_MARKER_FRAME header the device sends (pdword[4] in save_frame()) and, unlike the frame payload length just above it, is never bounded: payload = le32_to_cpu(pdword[3]); if (payload > vc->req_image_size) /* payload is checked ... */ return -EINVAL; vc->pkt_size = payload; vc->jpg_size = le32_to_cpu(pdword[4]); /* ... jpg_size is not */ A malicious or malfunctioning device can therefore report a jpg_size larger than the destination vb2 plane, and the memcpy() writes past it. jpg_size is a signed int, so a value with the top bit set also turns into a huge length. Reject a frame whose jpg_size is negative or exceeds the plane size before copying it.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: s2255: check firmware size before reading trailing marker s2255_probe() reads a 4-byte marker and version from the last 8 bytes of the firmware blob (fw->data[fw_size - 8] and [fw_size - 4]). If the firmware file is shorter than 8 bytes, fw_size - 8 underflows and the access reads out of bounds. Validate the firmware size before indexing.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: v4l2-async: avoid deleting unlinked ASC entry on link error v4l2_async_match_notify() creates ancillary media links before adding asc->asc_subdev_entry to sd->asc_list. If ancillary link creation fails, the function jumps to err_call_unbind while asc_subdev_entry has not been linked yet. Async connections are zero-allocated, so the list entry still has NULL next and prev pointers on this path. Calling list_del() on it can therefore dereference NULL instead of returning the original link creation error. Do not delete asc_subdev_entry from err_call_unbind. There is no list insertion to undo on this path; the bound callback and sub-device registration are the operations that need to be rolled back.

This reference is properly released in the error paths, but it is leaked on the success path. Add the missing fwnode_handle_put() before returning 0 to prevent the reference leak.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: video-i2c: fix kthread error pointer left in kthread_vid_cap on failure kthread_run() returns an ERR_PTR on failure, not NULL. When start_streaming() fails, data->kthread_vid_cap is left holding this error pointer instead of being cleared. This causes two subsequent bugs: 1. A future call to start_streaming() sees a non-NULL kthread_vid_cap and returns 0 (success) immediately, without actually starting the capture thread. 2. A call to stop_streaming() checks 'kthread_vid_cap == NULL' which is false for an error pointer, and proceeds to call kthread_stop() on the error pointer, leading to a kernel crash. Fix this by resetting kthread_vid_cap to NULL on failure before jumping to the error path.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: qcom: iris: use disable_irq() during power-off The IRQ is registered as a threaded IRQ. Using disable_irq_nosync() in iris_vpu_power_off() does not wait for an already queued threaded IRQ handler to complete before returning. As a result, a threaded IRQ handler may still run after the VPU has been powered down and access hardware registers after power-off. Replace disable_irq_nosync() with disable_irq() so the power-off path waits for any in-flight threaded IRQ handler to complete before returning.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: chips-media: wave5: Add timeout while stop_streaming When stop_streaming is called, an infinite loop may occur in some cases. Add a bounded poll of the queue status: loop until the queues drain, sleeping briefly between polls, and bail out once VPU_DEC_STOP_TIMEOUT elapses.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: chips-media: wave5: Defer job_finish() only when a DEC_PIC was queued Decoder instances sharing a VPU also share one v4l2_m2m job slot, released when the running context calls v4l2_m2m_job_finish(). While draining, device_run() defers job_finish() once EOS is sent (sent_eos), expecting a later finish_decode() (from a DEC_PIC completion IRQ) to release the slot. But the m2m core checks job_ready() only when a job is queued, not when it is dispatched. A job queued while draining can run after finish_decode() has already moved the instance to STOP and sent EOS. device_run() then runs in STOP, issues no DEC_PIC, yet still skips job_finish() - so no IRQ, no finish_decode(), and the shared slot is leaked, stalling every instance. With several v4l2h264dec instances in parallel, GStreamer hangs at EOS. Track whether the run actually queued a DEC_PIC (cmd_issued) and defer job_finish() only then. Otherwise finish the job immediately

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: chips-media: wave5: Resume device before setting EOS flag Setting the EOS flag talks to the firmware via send_firmware_command(), which accesses VPU registers. Both the STREAMOFF path (wave5_vpu_dec_job_abort()) and the V4L2_DEC_CMD_STOP path (wave5_vpu_dec_stop()) can run while the device is runtime suspended, so those register accesses hit powered-down hardware and the SoC raises an asynchronous SError, panicking the kernel: SError Interrupt on CPU3, code 0x00000000bf000000 -- SError send_firmware_command+0x2c/0x160 [wave5] wave5_vpu_dec_set_bitstream_flag+0x6c/0x80 [wave5] wave5_vpu_dec_update_bitstream_buffer+0x80/0xec [wave5] wave5_vpu_dec_job_abort+0x44/0xa0 [wave5] v4l2_m2m_cancel_job+0x110/0x19c [v4l2_mem2mem] v4l2_m2m_streamoff+0x24/0x140 [v4l2_mem2mem] Resume the device with pm_runtime_resume_and_get() around the EOS firmware command and release it with pm_runtime_put_autosuspend(), matching the runtime PM handling already done in wave5_vpu_dec_device_run().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Zero SFP DMA buffer in FRU/I2C bsg handlers The FRU and I2C bsg handlers stage their transfer in a DMA_POOL_SIZE (256-byte) bounce buffer obtained from dma_pool_alloc(), which does not zero the allocation. They initialize only a few leading bytes before handing the buffer to qla2x00_write_sfp(). qla2x00_write_sfp() can override the transfer length with a user-supplied value: if (len == 1) opt |= BIT_0; if (opt & BIT_0) len = *sfp; *sfp is the first byte of the (user-controlled) payload, so len can grow up to 255. The device then DMA-reads len bytes from the 256-byte pool buffer. Since only a small prefix was written (e.g. MAX_FRU_SIZE == 36 bytes for a FRU version, one byte for a FRU status register), the hardware reads past the initialized region and writes up to ~219 bytes of stale DMA-pool heap memory to the device flash. Allocate the buffer with dma_pool_zalloc() in all five FRU/I2C handlers so any bytes beyond the initialized data are zero rather than stale heap contents.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Bound i2c->length in I2C bsg handlers struct qla_i2c_access carries a 16-bit length field alongside a fixed 64-byte buffer: struct qla_i2c_access { uint16_t device, offset, option, length; uint8_t buffer[0x40]; } __packed; qla2x00_write_i2c() and qla2x00_read_i2c() use the user-supplied i2c->length without any bounds check. i2c is overlaid on a 256-byte on-stack buffer and sfp is a 256-byte DMA-pool buffer, so a length up to 65535 overruns both: - write: memcpy(sfp, i2c->buffer, i2c->length) over-reads the stack and over-writes the sfp heap buffer, and qla2x00_write_sfp() then DMAs i2c->length bytes out of the 256-byte buffer. - read: qla2x00_read_sfp() DMAs i2c->length bytes into the 256-byte sfp, then memcpy(i2c->buffer, sfp, i2c->length) overflows the 64-byte buffer inside the on-stack array. A caller holding CAP_SYS_RAWIO can use this to corrupt the heap and the kernel stack. Reject requests whose length exceeds the buffer before any copy or DMA transfer in both handlers.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Fix BSG job leak on validate flash image error path qla28xx_validate_flash_image() returns QLA_SUCCESS (0) unconditionally, telling the FC BSG transport (fc_bsg_host_dispatch()) that the driver owns and will complete the request. But bsg_job_done() is guarded by "if (!rval)", so on the error path (rval == -EINVAL) neither the driver nor the transport completes the job. The request dangles until it times out, leaking block layer resources. Commit c2c68225b145 ("scsi: qla2xxx: Fix bsg_done() causing double free") added the "if (!rval)" guard to a batch of BSG handlers. That is correct for handlers that also return the error code (the transport then completes the job once via fail_host_msg), but this function returns QLA_SUCCESS unconditionally, so the guard turned a correct single completion into a leak. Always call bsg_job_done(): bsg_reply->result is DID_OK and the error is reported in vendor_rsp[0], and since the function returns 0 the transport will not complete the job a second time.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Zero dport diagnostics buffer to avoid info leak qla2x00_do_dport_diagnostics() allocates the qla_dport_diag response buffer with kmalloc_obj() (non-zeroing) and, on success, copies the full sizeof(*dd) back to user space via sg_copy_from_buffer(). The inbound sg_copy_to_buffer() only fills as many bytes as the user request payload provides, and qla26xx_dport_diagnostics() zeroes only dd->buf. The options and unused[] fields are therefore copied out uninitialized, leaking kernel heap contents to user space. Allocate with kzalloc_obj(), matching qla2x00_do_dport_diagnostics_v2().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Bound image count in qla2x00_update_fru_versions() qla2x00_update_fru_versions() copies the user-supplied BSG request into a fixed 256-byte stack buffer (bsg[DMA_POOL_SIZE]) and then iterates list->count times over the qla_image_version array embedded in that buffer, advancing the image pointer each iteration. count is taken directly from user input with no upper bound, while only (DMA_POOL_SIZE - sizeof(list->count)) / sizeof(struct qla_image_version) = 6 entries actually fit. A larger count walks the image pointer off the end of the stack buffer, reading adjacent kernel stack memory and sending it to the device via qla2x00_write_sfp(). Reject requests whose declared count does not fit in the buffer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Serialize flash version read in reset handler The "update cache versions without reset" sysfs reset operation (0x20261) calls get_flash_version(), which reads hardware flash registers, without holding ha->optrom_mutex. The VPD update path serializes the same call under optrom_mutex, so this reset path can interleave its flash register accesses with a concurrent VPD or optrom flash operation and corrupt the reads. Hold ha->optrom_mutex across the get_flash_version() call to match the VPD update path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Fix FCE trace use-after-free during firmware dump qla2x00_free_fce_trace() freed and cleared ha->fce while holding only fce_mutex. The firmware-dump consumers qla27xx_fwdt_entry_t264() and qla25xx_copy_fce() read ha->fce (NULL check followed by a copy of the buffer) under hardware_lock and never take fce_mutex. A debugfs FCE disable could therefore free the DMA buffer between a dump's NULL check and its copy, resulting in a use-after-free. Unpublish ha->fce under hardware_lock, then release the lock and free the DMA buffer (dma_free_coherent() may sleep). A concurrent dump either completes its check and copy with the buffer still valid, or observes ha->fce == NULL and skips it.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Zero mailbox struct in qla2x00_get_firmware_state() The mbx_cmd_t is allocated on the stack but left uninitialized. qla2x00_mailbox_command() has several early-return paths (PCI permanent failure, device failed, EEH busy, ISP abort pending, mailbox access timeout, purge mbox) that return without writing the input mailbox registers back into mcp->mb[]. qla2x00_get_firmware_state() then unconditionally copies mcp->mb[1..6] (and mb[12]) into the caller's states[] array regardless of the return value. On such a failure the copied values are uninitialized kernel stack memory, which is then exposed to userspace via the fw_state and mpi_fw_state sysfs handlers. Zero the mailbox struct so a failed query yields deterministic zeroed state instead of leaking stack contents.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Fix FCE trace enable parsing in debugfs qla2x00_dfs_fce_write() called kstrtoul() with a NULL result pointer, so a successful parse would dereference NULL and oops. Worse, the int return value (0 on success, negative errno on failure) was assigned to the unsigned long enable flag, inverting the intended logic: a valid number was treated as "disable" while a parse failure enabled FCE. Parse the value into enable and propagate parse errors to userspace.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Don't query firmware state while chip is down qla2x00_fw_state_show() initializes rval to QLA_FUNCTION_FAILED and jumps to the out: label when the chip is down or EEH is busy. The out: block then re-issued qla2x00_get_firmware_state() because rval != QLA_SUCCESS, defeating the chip-down/EEH-busy guards and issuing a mailbox command (outside optrom_mutex) during ISP reset or PCI error recovery, which can hang the adapter. It also turned a normal in-lock mailbox failure into a second unsynchronized mailbox attempt. Make the out: fallback only mark the firmware state as unknown. The mailbox is now issued at most once, inside optrom_mutex, and only when the chip is up and not EEH-busy.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Avoid req_q_map double-read in qla2x00_error_entry() qla2x00_error_entry() reads ha->req_q_map[que] twice: once for the NULL check and again when assigning it to req. The map slot is cleared by qla25xx_free_req_que() (ha->req_q_map[que_id] = NULL under mq_lock) during queue teardown, while the response-queue interrupt that drives qla2x00_error_entry() is still registered (the IRQ is released later in qla25xx_free_rsp_que()). If the slot is set to NULL between the two reads, req becomes NULL and is dereferenced. Read the slot once into req and NULL-check the local before use. mq_lock is a mutex and cannot be taken from interrupt context, so the single read plus local check is the appropriate fix for the reported NULL dereference.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Zero-init bsg stack buffers to avoid info leak Several bsg handlers stage their request/reply in an uninitialized 256-byte on-stack buffer (uint8_t bsg[DMA_POOL_SIZE]) and fill it via sg_copy_to_buffer(), which only copies as many bytes as the user-supplied request payload. When the request is shorter than the structure, the remainder of the buffer is left holding stale stack data. qla2x00_read_fru_status() and qla2x00_read_i2c() then copy the full structure back to the reply payload with sg_copy_from_buffer(), leaking the uninitialized stack bytes to user space. The write/update paths do not copy the buffer back, but can feed uninitialized fields to the device. Zero the stack buffer at declaration in all five handlers, mirroring the heap kzalloc() approach, so short requests can no longer expose stale memory.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Skip NVMe LS reject IOCB when FW not started qla_nvme_xmt_ls_rsp() bails out to the out: label when firmware is not started (!ha->flags.fw_started), but the out: path unconditionally calls qla_nvme_ls_reject_iocb(), which ends in qla2x00_start_iocbs() and an unconditional doorbell write to the request queue in-pointer register. This rings the firmware doorbell and queues an IOCB that stopped or resetting firmware cannot consume, and touches MMIO during the reset/EEH window where fw_started is also clear. Only emit the LS reject IOCB (and ring the doorbell) when fw_started is set; otherwise just clean up and return. The post-allocation failure cases (SRB alloc / qla2x00_start_sp() failure) run with firmware started and still send the reject. Apply the same guard to the reject emission in qla2xxx_process_purls_pkt().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: use the mount idmap for the owner check in f2fs_xattr_advise_set() f2fs_xattr_advise_set() calls inode_owner_or_capable() with &nop_mnt_idmap before allowing the "system.advise" xattr to be set, instead of the idmap that the VFS passes to the ->set() handler. f2fs supports idmapped mounts, so on such a mount this checks the caller's fsuid against the unmapped on-disk owner rather than the mapped owner: the actual owner can be wrongly denied with -EPERM and an unrelated caller wrongly allowed. Pass the handler's idmap instead.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix dentry folio leak in find_in_level find_in_level() gets a dentry folio with f2fs_find_data_folio() before calling find_in_block(). If find_in_block() returns an error, the function stores the error in res_folio and breaks out of the loop without dropping the dentry folio. This leaks the folio reference on the find_in_block() error path. Drop the dentry folio before returning the error to the caller.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: avoid NULL checkpoint thread access in sysfs checkpoint_merge can be enabled even when no checkpoint merge thread is running. A read-only mount is one case: f2fs does not start f2fs_issue_ckpt there, but ckpt_thread_ioprio is still writable through sysfs. The ckpt_thread_ioprio store path updates the saved ioprio value and, when checkpoint_merge is enabled, calls set_task_ioprio() for the checkpoint thread. If cprc->f2fs_issue_ckpt is NULL, that dereferences a NULL task pointer. Protect ckpt_thread_ioprio sysfs writes with s_umount as well, so the checkpoint thread cannot disappear under the store path while updating its ioprio.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix to migrate all curseg types during free_segment_range In free_segment_range(), the curseg evacuation loop only iterates up to NR_CURSEG_PERSIST_TYPE (0..5), missing non-persistent in-memory curseg types such as CURSEG_COLD_DATA_PINNED and CURSEG_ALL_DATA_ATGC. Even though these in-memory curseg types are not saved in the on-disk checkpoint header, they still occupy active physical segments at runtime. If an active in-memory curseg happens to be allocated within the segment range being truncated during filesystem shrink, failing to evacuate it will cause subsequent writes to the curseg attempting out-of-bounds I/O on the truncated storage range. Fix this by expanding the curseg evacuation loop upper bound to NR_CURSEG_TYPE to ensure all active curseg types are safely migrated out of the target range.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: protect critical_task_priority updates with s_umount The sysfs store path already takes s_umount for GC thread control entries, and ckpt_thread_ioprio is covered as well. critical_task_priority also updates checkpoint or GC kthread scheduling state, but it is not covered by that serialization. It can race with remount or teardown paths that are stopping those threads. Protect critical_task_priority sysfs writes with s_umount too.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix valid block count leak on data block allocation failure In __allocate_data_block(), when allocating a new data block (dn->data_blkaddr == NULL_ADDR), inc_valid_block_count() is called first to increment total_valid_block_count and i_blocks. If the subsequent f2fs_allocate_data_block() fails, the function returns the error directly without rolling back the already-incremented block counts, causing a permanent leak. Fix this by calling dec_valid_block_count() to undo the increment before returning the error. The condition old_blkaddr == NULL_ADDR precisely identifies the case where inc_valid_block_count() was called.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu: Fix init ordering in amdgpu_vram_mgr_init() drmm_cgroup_register_region() is called before INIT_LIST_HEAD() and gpu_buddy_init() in amdgpu_vram_mgr_init(). If it fails, the function returns early and bypasses those initializations. Since adev->mman.initialized is set to true before amdgpu_vram_mgr_init() is called, a failure triggers amdgpu_ttm_fini(), which calls amdgpu_vram_mgr_fini(), which then: - Calls list_for_each_entry_safe() on reservations_pending and reserved_pages, whose list_head::next pointers are zero-initialized (NULL). The loop does not recognize them as empty and dereferences NULL. - Calls gpu_buddy_fini(), which iterates free_trees[] unconditionally via for_each_free_tree(). Since mm->free_trees is NULL (never allocated), this dereferences NULL. Both result in a kernel panic on the module load error path. Fix by moving drmm_cgroup_register_region() to after the list and buddy allocator are fully initialized, so the teardown path is safe to run.

A LUT with fewer than two entries cannot describe a linear mapping anyway, so return false early instead of dividing by zero.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: fix dc_lock leak on GPU reset error paths On GPU reset, dm_suspend() takes dc_lock and leaves it for dm_resume() to drop. If amdgpu_dm_commit_zero_streams() or dm_dmub_hw_init() fails, the function returns with the lock still held. The matching resume path is then skipped, so every later dc_lock take hangs. Release the cached DC state and unlock before returning the error.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/gud: NUL-terminate TV mode names read from the device gud_connector_add_tv_mode() reads a buffer of fixed-size mode names from the USB device and passes pointers into it to drm_mode_create_tv_properties_legacy(), which calls strlen() on each one. Nothing guarantees the device NUL-terminates a name, so strlen() can run past the end of a slot and, for the last mode, past the end of the allocation. Terminate each name at the end of its slot before use.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm: Fix drm_crtc_commit leak if signaled when PAGE_FLIP_EVENT is used Commit 1c6ceeee6ebb ("drm/atomic: Fix memleak on ERESTARTSYS during non-blocking commits") fixed a very similar issue when the event was allocated by drm_atomic_helper_setup_commit() itself. However, if the event is allocated in prepare_signaling(), it will also be set to NULL in complete_signaling(), which prevents drm_crtc_commit from being put in __drm_atomic_helper_crtc_destroy_state(). Dropping the reference when the event is set to NULL at complete_signaling() fixes the leak. The leak can be reproduced by sending a signal to the thread using DRM_MODE_PAGE_FLIP_EVENT and using a sw_sync fence to cause the atomic ioctl to block at drm_atomic_helper_wait_for_fences(). It happened both with amdgpu and vkms.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu: force complete the KIQ ring fences on reset Like the MES scheduler ring, the KIQ ring sets no_scheduler = true and uses a polling fence, so it is skipped by the force-completion loop in amdgpu_device_pre_asic_reset(). Its hw fence value lives in wb (GTT) memory and survives a MODE1 reset while fence_drv.sync_seq keeps advancing, so after a reset the first KIQ submission can poll forever on a seq that is never written back. Force complete the KIQ ring fences too so their hw fence is realigned to sync_seq.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu: force complete the MES ring fences on reset The MES scheduler ring has no drm scheduler (no_scheduler = true), so it is skipped by the force-completion loop in amdgpu_device_pre_asic_reset(). It uses a polling fence whose hw value lives in wb (GTT) memory and survives a MODE1 reset, while fence_drv.sync_seq keeps advancing for every packet. When the reset is triggered because MES itself stopped responding, the timed-out packets advance sync_seq past the last hw fence value MES wrote. After resume the first MES submission polls forever on a seq that is never written back, failing the resume and wedging the box on a second reset: amdgpu: MES ring buffer is full. amdgpu: *ERROR* ring gfx_0.0.0 test failed (-110) amdgpu: resume of IP block <gfx_v11_0> failed -110 amdgpu: GPU reset end with ret = -110 Force complete the MES scheduler ring fences together with the scheduler rings so their hw fence is realigned to sync_seq. v2: cover all XCCs (one scheduler ring each), not just mes.ring[0].

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdkfd: fix scope of mqd_mgr dereference in pqm_debugfs_mqds Reading /sys/kernel/debug/kfd/mqds while a process holds an active KFD queue triggers a NULL pointer dereference because the for loop that calls mqd_mgr->debugfs_show_mqd() is incorrectly placed outside the if (pqn->q) block that initializes mqd_mgr. The queue list can contain entries where pqn->q is NULL (kernel queues where only pqn->kq is valid). In the original code: if (pqn->q) { ... mqd_mgr = q->device->dqm->mqd_mgrs[mqd_type]; size = mqd_mgr->mqd_stride(...); } for (xcc = 0; xcc < num_xccs; xcc++) { // WRONG: outside if block mqd = q->mqd + size * xcc; r = mqd_mgr->debugfs_show_mqd(m, mqd); } When iterating over a queue node where pqn->q is NULL: 1. The if (pqn->q) block is skipped 2. mqd_mgr remains uninitialized (NULL from declaration) 3. The for loop executes anyway 4. mqd_mgr->debugfs_show_mqd(m, mqd) dereferences NULL The crash manifests as: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000 #PF: supervisor instruction fetch in kernel mode RIP: 0010:0x0 Call Trace: pqm_debugfs_mqds+0x10c/0x1d0 [amdgpu] kfd_debugfs_mqds_by_process+0x9b/0x110 [amdgpu] seq_read_iter+0x132/0x4b0 ... Fix by moving the for loop inside the if (pqn->q) block, so mqd_mgr and related variables are only used when properly initialized.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdkfd: guard against NULL restore_mqd in CRIU queue restore Both create_queue_cpsch() and create_queue_nocpsch() unconditionally call mqd_mgr->restore_mqd() when a CRIU restore is in progress (qd != NULL), with no NULL guard. On any system where restore_mqd is not implemented for the given queue type, a user holding CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE can trigger a kernel NULL pointer dereference and panic the machine by issuing KFD_IOC_CRIU_OP_RESTORE with a crafted queue restore object. Note that checkpoint_mqd is likewise unimplemented on GFX12, so no legitimate CRIU image can reach this path — only a hand-crafted restore payload. Add a NULL guard for restore_mqd immediately after mqd_mgr is resolved, unwinding via the existing error labels and returning -EOPNOTSUPP if the callback is not implemented. This mirrors the existing checkpoint_mqd guard in checkpoint_mqd().

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/nouveau/uvmm: fix NULL deref unwinding an OP_MAP_SPARSE op Each bind_job_op is zeroed by kzalloc_obj() in bind_job_op_from_uop(), and the OP_MAP_SPARSE case in nouveau_uvmm_bind_job_submit() only creates a region, so op->ops stays NULL for a successfully processed sparse map. If a later op in the same job fails, the reverse unwind loop revisits that op and calls drm_gpuva_ops_free(&uvmm->base, op->ops) unconditionally. drm_gpuva_ops_free() dereferences its argument right away (list_for_each_entry_safe on &ops->list), so a NULL op->ops oopses. The path is reachable by any render-node fd holder, since NOUVEAU_VM_BIND is DRM_RENDER_ALLOW. Guard the free with IS_ERR_OR_NULL(), as nouveau_uvmm_bind_job_cleanup() already does for the identical free.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/nouveau/uvmm: clear the dirty flag when unwinding an OP_UNMAP_SPARSE A successful OP_UNMAP_SPARSE marks its region dirty with nouveau_uvma_region_dirty() and defers the teardown to nouveau_uvmm_bind_job_cleanup(); it does not remove the region from uvmm->region_mt. If a later op in the job fails, the unwind path never clears reg->dirty (set in one place, cleared nowhere) and sets op->reg = NULL, so cleanup skips the teardown. The region is left in the tree with dirty set and its completion never signalled. Later binds over that range then fail permanently -- -ENOENT or -EINVAL from the dirty checks, or an unkillable wait_for_completion() in bind_validate_region() -- for the lifetime of the uvmm. Clear reg->dirty when the unwind reverts the sparse unmap, restoring the region to the state it was found in.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rpcrdma: arm rn_done before publishing the notification rpcrdma_rn_register() inserts @rn into rd_xa with xa_alloc() before storing the caller's callback in rn->rn_done. The xarray makes @rn reachable to rpcrdma_remove_one(), which walks rd_xa and invokes rn->rn_done(rn) for every registered notification. A device removal that races a fresh registration can therefore observe @rn with rn_done still NULL, because the notification objects are zero allocated by their owners, and call through a NULL function pointer. Store rn->rn_done before xa_alloc() publishes @rn. The xarray's store-side and load-side ordering then guarantees that any CPU which finds @rn in rd_xa also observes the armed callback. rpcrdma_rn_unregister() treats a non-NULL rn_done as the sentinel for a completed registration, so the early store must not survive a failed registration. Clear rn_done again when xa_alloc() fails. Were it left set, the failed-accept cleanup path would call rpcrdma_rn_unregister() on an @rn that was never inserted, erasing an unrelated rd_xa slot and underflowing rd_kref.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: power: supply: ab8500_fg: fix use-after-free on remove ab8500_fg_remove() destroys the driver workqueue while the threaded interrupt handlers are still armed; they are devm-managed and freed only after ->remove() returns, so a handler that fires in that window queues work on the freed workqueue. Tear the workqueue down through devm instead, registering its cleanup after the power supply and before the interrupt requests. devm then frees the interrupts first, so the handlers can no longer queue work, before disabling the delayed and plain work items and destroying the workqueue. Disabling the items, rather than cancelling them, keeps them disabled so no producer (including the power-supply external_power_changed callback) can requeue them. Found by an in-house static analysis tool.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/damon/core: avoid infinite kdamond_merge_regions() internal loop Patch series "mm/damon: unurgent fixes for infinite loop, NULL de-ref and races", v1.1. Sashiko found a few issues in DAMON that could cause infinite loop, NULL dereference and monitoring results degradation. The first two sounds scary but the infinite loop happens only under unreasonable user setup. The NULL dereference is only in a unit test. Monitoring results degradation is trivial since it is only best-effort, and those happens from only unlikely races. Still those are bugs that better to fix if possible. Fix those. This patch (of 6): Due to online parameter update like events, the number of DAMON regions could be higher than the user-set upper limit. kdamond_merge_regions() repeats merge regions until the number meets the limit, while doubling the merge threshold up to the theoretical maximum threshold. It is tried only up to the theoretical maximum threshold because even the aggressive merging can fail from reducing the number of regions under the user-defined upper limit. For example, there could be many user-defined non-contiguous regions that cannot be merged. The threshold based loop break condition is evaluated by comparing the threshold for the next merging try against the theoretical maximum threshold. If max_thres is larger than UINT_MAX / 2, doubling the threshold could make it overflow, and bypass the loop break condition. In the case, if the number of regions cannot be reduced under the upper limit like explained above, the loop will run infinitely. Prevent the case by doing the break condition check before doubling the threshold. Also, prevent the threshold exceeding the maximum threshold, as it could overflow and apply the wrong merge threshold. This issue is unlikely to occur in real world, since having the max_thres higher than UINT_MAX / 2 require unrealistically large aggregation intervals compared to the sampling interval. Also, it requires an unrealistically large number of uncontiguous regions setup. Nonetheless, the consequence is bad and the fix is simple. The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: zero pipe read compound padding Compound response handling extends the last response iov to an eight-byte boundary. smb2_read_pipe() allocates only the payload size, so the alignment padding can expose up to seven bytes of uninitialized kernel heap memory. Allocate the aligned size and clear the unused tail before pinning the response buffer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipv6: avoid divide by zero in rt6_multipath_rebalance rt6_multipath_rebalance() calculates the total eligible nexthop weight in one pass and programs upper bounds in a second pass. Since RTM_NEWROUTE is RTNL-free, a concurrent ignore_routes_with_linkdown update can make the first pass return zero while the second sees an eligible nexthop, causing rt6_upper_bound_set() to divide by zero. UBSAN: division-overflow in net/ipv6/route.c:4845:17 Oops: divide error: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI rt6_upper_bound_set() net/ipv6/route.c:4845 rt6_multipath_rebalance() fib6_add_rt2node() ip6_route_multipath_add() inet6_rtm_newroute() Skip upper-bound calculation when the first pass reports a zero total.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: check dir entry fits before reading the hash trailer in ext4_search_dir() For casefolded encrypted directories ext4 stores an 8-byte hash trailer after the name (EXT4_DIRENT_HASHES()), at an offset derived from de->name_len. On the sb_no_casefold_compat_fallback() path ext4_match() reads that trailer, but ext4_search_dir()'s by-hand pre-check only tests de->name + de->name_len <= dlimit, which proves the name fits, not the rounded trailer. A crafted entry whose name ends at the block boundary passes the check while EXT4_DIRENT_HASHES(de) lands past the block end, so ext4_match() reads out of bounds on an ordinary lookup. KASAN reports it as a use-after-free when the page after the directory block holds a freed object: BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ext4_match (fs/ext4/namei.c:1435) Read of size 4 at addr ffff888010458000 by task exploit Call Trace: ext4_match (fs/ext4/namei.c:1435) ext4_search_dir (fs/ext4/namei.c:1470) __ext4_find_entry (fs/ext4/namei.c:1268 fs/ext4/namei.c:1632) ext4_lookup (fs/ext4/namei.c:1703 fs/ext4/namei.c:1769) ... filename_lookup (fs/namei.c:2842) vfs_statx (fs/stat.c:353) __do_sys_newfstatat (fs/stat.c:538) do_syscall_64 (arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:94) entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe (arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:121) Require, for hash-in-dirent directories, that the whole entry including the rounded trailer fits before calling ext4_match(). This is the same bound ext4_check_dir_entry() already enforces via ext4_dir_rec_len(), so no well-formed entry is rejected. The other caller, ext4_find_dest_de(), runs ext4_check_dir_entry() first and is unaffected.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fs/ntfs3: fix out-of-bounds read of INDEX_ROOT in reparse/objid init ntfs_reparse_init() and ntfs_objid_init() parse the index root of the $Extend/$Reparse and $Extend/$ObjId metafiles (the INDEX_ROOT attributes named $R and $O). They read its type and rule fields through resident_data(), which does not check that the resident attribute is large enough to hold them. mi_enum_attr() accepts a resident attribute with data_off == asize and data_size == 0. For such an attribute placed last in its MFT record, resident_data() returns a pointer to the end of the record_size buffer, so reading root->type / root->rule reads past the allocation. Use resident_data_ex(attr, sizeof(struct INDEX_ROOT)) and bail out when it returns NULL, as ntfs_security_init() already does for $SDH / $SII. The attribute is only parsed while mounting a crafted image, so this needs CAP_SYS_ADMIN.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: SUNRPC: check rpc_sockaddr2uaddr() return value in rpcb_register_inet4/6 rpcb_register_inet4() and rpcb_register_inet6() store the result of rpc_sockaddr2uaddr() into map->r_addr without checking it for NULL. rpc_sockaddr2uaddr() returns NULL when its final kstrdup() fails, and the unchecked NULL is then carried into the synchronous RPCBPROC_SET encode path: rpcb_register_call() -> rpc_call_sync() -> rpcb_enc_getaddr() -> encode_rpcb_string(), whose first statement is strlen(string), dereferencing NULL and oopsing the kernel. The crash reproduces under failslab on v6.12; with KASAN the NULL dereference surfaces as a fault on the shadow of address zero: Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN RIP: 0010:strlen (lib/string.c:409) Call Trace: encode_rpcb_string (net/sunrpc/rpcb_clnt.c:890) rpcb_enc_getaddr (net/sunrpc/rpcb_clnt.c:910) rpcauth_wrap_req_encode (net/sunrpc/auth.c:745) call_encode (net/sunrpc/clnt.c:1966) __rpc_execute (net/sunrpc/sched.c:952) rpc_run_task (net/sunrpc/clnt.c:1243) rpc_call_sync (net/sunrpc/clnt.c:1272) rpcb_v4_register (net/sunrpc/rpcb_clnt.c:500) svc_generic_rpcbind_set nfsd_rpcbind_set svc_register svc_setup_socket svc_addsock write_ports nfsctl_transaction_write vfs_write The crash is reachable when an in-kernel RPC service (nfsd, lockd, nfs-callback) registers with the local rpcbind under enough memory pressure for the small GFP_KERNEL kstrdup() in rpc_sockaddr2uaddr() to fail. The asynchronous getport path already handles this exact failure mode by returning -ENOMEM; only the two register helpers omit the check. Mirror that handling: bail out with -ENOMEM when rpc_sockaddr2uaddr() returns NULL, before the address is fed into the encoder.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: qualcomm: rmnet: restore skb->dev on deaggregated frames rmnet_map_deaggregate() allocates each sub-frame with alloc_skb() and leaves skb->dev NULL. __rmnet_map_ingress_handler() assigns skb->dev = ep->egress_dev only on the data path, but a MAP command frame is dispatched to rmnet_map_command() before that, so rmnet_map_send_ack() runs netif_tx_lock(skb->dev) on a NULL device. An unprivileged user reaches this by unsharing a user+net namespace, creating an rmnet link over a tap device with INGRESS_DEAGGREGATION and INGRESS_MAP_COMMANDS, and writing an aggregated frame carrying a flow-control command to the tap fd. Restore the assignment dropped by 378e25357ac7, so every skb leaving rmnet_map_deaggregate() has a valid device.

Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vxlan: vnifilter: enforce exact length of GROUP/GROUP6 attributes The VXLAN VNI filter entry policy declares the GROUP/GROUP6 address attributes as NLA_BINARY with only a maximum length, so validate_nla() accepts a payload shorter than the address. The GROUP consumer reads it with nla_get_in_addr(), an unconditional 4-byte load, so a short attribute over-reads up to 3 bytes of uninitialised slab data, which are stored into remote_ip and echoed back via RTM_GETTUNNEL, disclosing kernel memory. Switch both entries to NLA_POLICY_EXACT_LEN() so the validator rejects any GROUP/GROUP6 that is not exactly 4 / 16 bytes; a valid address is always sent at full width.
