CVSS v3.1 |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
esp: downgrade zerocopy managed frags before mutating skb frags
On the out-of-place output path (esp->inplace == false) ESP rewrites the
skb frag array: esp_output_head() appends a trailer frag and
esp_output_tail() replaces the frags with a destination page, both
referenced with get_page().
When the skb carries zerocopy managed frags (SKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS) the
payload frags are owned by the ubuf and must not be referenced or
unreferenced individually, but ESP mutates the frag array without ever
downgrading the skb. This breaks the managed-frag invariant two ways:
- esp_ssg_unref() walks the source scatterlist and drops a page
reference for every frag, including the ubuf-owned payload frags,
pushing their refcount below the GUP pin bias while the pages are
still pinned, i.e. a use-after-free of the zerocopy pages;
- esp_output_tail() installs its destination page as frag 0 with
get_page() but leaves SKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS set, so
skb_release_data() takes the skip_unref branch and never drops that
reference, leaking the x->xfrag page at packet rate.
Fix this the way every other frag-mutating site does (__ip_append_data(),
__ip6_append_data(), tcp_sendmsg_locked()) and call
skb_zcopy_downgrade_managed() before ESP touches the frag array: it takes
a real reference on each existing frag and clears SKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS,
so the per-frag unref in esp_ssg_unref() and the frag release in
skb_release_data() are both balanced and no mixed-ownership frag array is
left behind. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cifs: Fix server use-after-free in cifs_chan_skip_or_disable()
When a secondary channel is no longer supported by the server,
cifs_chan_skip_or_disable() drops the channel reference with
cifs_put_tcp_session() and then continues to use the server pointer by
calling cifs_signal_cifsd_for_reconnect() on it and reading its
primary_server pointer. cifs_put_tcp_session() can drop the last
reference of the channel and tear it down, so both the channel and the
primary server (whose reference is also dropped by
cifs_put_tcp_session()) can be freed before they are signaled for
reconnect.
Signal the channel and the primary server and capture the primary
server pointer before dropping the channel reference with
cifs_put_tcp_session(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm: RCU-free the scheduler-containing ring and VM objects
Both struct msm_ringbuffer and struct msm_gem_vm embed a struct
drm_gpu_scheduler. msm_ringbuffer_destroy() and the VM free callback
msm_gem_vm_free() call drm_sched_fini() on the embedded scheduler and then
free the containing object with plain kfree().
drm_sched_fence_get_timeline_name() returns fence->sched->name, and the
scheduler fence keeps a .release callback so it is not ops-detached on
signalling. A finished fence exported to userspace (the submit out-fence, or
a VM_BIND fence, via sync_file / drm_syncobj) keeps pointing at the embedded
scheduler after the ring/VM is freed, so a later get_timeline_name() --
reachable unprivileged through SYNC_IOC_FILE_INFO -- dereferences freed slab
memory (KASAN slab-use-after-free read).
Per the dma-fence lifetime contract the exporter must keep the data backing a
signalled fence alive for an RCU grace period. Free the scheduler-containing
objects with kfree_rcu() instead of kfree().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/core: fix refcount bug in iwpm_get_nlmsg_request()
iwpm_get_nlmsg_request() initializes refcount _after_ list_add_tail()
making it accessible to global list where another CPU can kref_get()
on nlmsg_request causing a refcount "addition on 0" bug. Fix this
by initializing kref _before_ list_add_tail() so refcount for
nlmsg_request can be incremented/decremented normally. In addition,
also initialize every field before list_add_tail(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/ucma: Serialize join and leave on copy_to_user failure
rdma_join_multicast() queues RoCE work that later reads the ucma_multicast
through event->param.ud.private_data, then list_add()s the CMA multicast
at the head of id_priv->mc_list. rdma_leave_multicast() matches only by
sockaddr and destroys the first hit.
ucma_process_join() used to drop ctx->mutex after a successful join and
retake it only if copy_to_user() failed. Two concurrent JOIN_MCAST calls
with the same address can therefore insert a second CMA entry before the
first thread's leave. leave then cancels the newer work and the older
worker still dereferences the ucma_multicast that the first thread frees.
Keep ctx->mutex held from rdma_join_multicast() through copy_to_user() and,
on -EFAULT, through rdma_leave_multicast() so leave cannot miss this join.
Do not leave if join itself failed: that path never published this address
on mc_list, and a leave-by-addr would destroy an earlier successful join. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
posix-cpu-timers: Prevent freeing a timer which is queued on the expiry list
Kijo analyzed another race in the POSIX CPU timer code:
Commit bf635681c906 converted cpu_timer::firing from a tristate value to a
boolean. This lost the distinction between "not owned by the firing list"
and "still owned, but delivery was canceled". The resulting race is:
expiry handler timer_settime() timer_delete()
-------------- --------------- --------------
collect timer onto
private firing list
firing = true
observes firing = true
firing = false
return TIMER_RETRY
wait for handler
observes firing = false
finish deletion
unhash and free timer
resume list traversal
read freed elist.next
-> UAF
The firing bit is clearly the wrong indicator since that commit.
Check whether the timer is queued on the expiry list or not instead. If it
is queued clear the firing bit to prevent signal delivery as before and
return TIMER_RETRY so the caller unlocks the timer which allows the expiry
code to make progress and remove it from the list. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: libipw: reject too-short association responses
libipw_handle_assoc_resp() reads the capability, status and aid fields
of the 30-byte association response prefix and then computes the
information element length as
stats->len - sizeof(*frame)
stats->len is a u16 and sizeof() has type size_t, so the subtraction is
evaluated as size_t and wraps instead of going negative. Truncating
that to the u16 length parameter of libipw_parse_info_param() turns a
frame shorter than the fixed fields into a length near 64 KiB, and the
parser then reads past the receive buffer.
Both the ipw2100 and ipw2200 management receive paths reach this
function having established only that the frame carries the generic
24-byte three-address header.
Reject the frame before any fixed field is touched.
Found by an AI-assisted review of length arithmetic in management frame
parsers. Verified with a KUnit case under Generic KASAN on arm64 under
QEMU; I do not have the hardware, so it is not tested on a real device. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: add missing rcu_read_lock(), skb_dst_force() and dev_hold() for xfrm_trans_reinject()
syzbot reported a suspicious RCU usage warning in ip6_pkt_drop():

When commit 4f4920669d21 ("xfrm: Reinject transport-mode packets through
workqueue") converted xfrm_trans_reinject from a tasklet to a workqueue,
the reinjection loop ceased running in softirq context. Workqueue workers
run in process context where local_bh_disable() does not enter an RCU
read-side critical section under CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU.
Because finish callbacks (such as ip6_rcv_finish) expect to run under an
RCU read lock (performing route lookups, l3mdev lookups, and accessing
RCU-protected data structures), invoking them in workqueue context without
rcu_read_lock() triggers RCU lockdep warnings.
Furthermore, packets queued to the workqueue via xfrm_trans_queue_net()
may carry non-refcounted (noref) dst entries (e.g. from ip_route_input_noref).
Additionally, on netdevice unregistration, dst_dev_put() replaces dst->dev
with blackhole_netdev, so dst entries do not keep skb->dev alive while
queued in the workqueue.
Fix these issues by:
1. Calling skb_dst_force(skb) in xfrm_trans_queue_net() while still in the
caller's RCU section to ensure dst is reference-counted before queuing.
2. Holding a reference on skb->dev via dev_hold()/dev_put() across workqueue
deferral so skb->dev remains valid during finish() callback processing.
3. Acquiring rcu_read_lock() around the finish callback invocation loop in
xfrm_trans_reinject(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (w83791d) remove fan/pwm 4-5 sysfs group on remove
When the fan/pwm 4-5 pins are not used as GPIO, w83791d_probe()
creates the w83791d_group_fanpwm45 sysfs group on the I2C client
device.
The probe error path removes this group when a later initialization
step fails, but the normal remove path only removes w83791d_group.
As a result, the optional fan/pwm 4-5 sysfs files can remain after the
driver is unbound.
The callbacks associated with these files access the driver data,
which is devm allocated and released after driver unbind. Leaving the
sysfs files behind can therefore result in accesses to stale driver
data.
Remove w83791d_group_fanpwm45 during normal teardown as well.
This issue was found by manual code inspection. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mips: select CONFIG_WEAK_REORDERING_BEYOND_LLSC from CONFIG_EYEQ
On I6500 CPU cores, lld and scd give no ordering guarantees (same as all
other instructions). To respect the assumption that arch_cmpxchg() is
fully ordered, we must inject sync instructions above and below our
lld/scd loops using the already in place WEAK_REORDERING_BEYOND_LLSC
infrastructure.
Otherwise, bad things can happen:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: fix use-after-free in kvmhv_emulate_tlbie_all_lpid()
kvmhv_emulate_tlbie_all_lpid() iterates the nested-guest IDR and drops
mmu_lock before calling kvmhv_emulate_tlbie_lpid(), but does not hold a
reference on the kvm_nested_guest pointer obtained from the IDR. A
concurrent vCPU issuing a single-LPID tlbie (is=2, ric=2) can race
through kvmhv_flush_nested() -> kvmhv_remove_nested() -> idr_remove /
--refcnt -> kvmhv_release_nested() -> kfree(gp) in that window, leaving
the iterating vCPU with a dangling pointer. The subsequent
mutex_lock(&gp->tlb_lock) and accesses to gp->shadow_pgtable,
gp->shadow_lpid and gp->l1_host all touch freed memory. The free path
is fully L1-controlled.
Fix this by incrementing gp->refcnt inside the loop before dropping
mmu_lock, mirroring what kvmhv_get_nested() does, and releasing the
reference with kvmhv_put_nested() after the per-guest work completes.
This is the same get/put discipline already used at every other
call site that drops mmu_lock while holding a nested-guest pointer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: protect runlist updates with the runlist lock
ntfs_non_resident_attr_shrink() calls runlist helpers that require the
runlist write lock, but did not hold it while freeing clusters and
truncating the runlist. Serialize those operations and the resident
conversion with the runlist lock.
ntfs_attr_map_cluster() can merge a newly allocated run before updating
mapping pairs. If the update fails, free the clusters and restore both
the in-memory runlist and on-disk mapping pairs from a saved runlist.
Mark the volume in error if either rollback step fails. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/siw: Bound fragmented header copies by the remaining length
siw_get_hdr() can receive an extended DDP/RDMAP header across more than
one TCP callback. The first callback may receive most of the header,
while the next one still limits the copy to hdrlen - MIN_DDP_HDR instead
of the number of missing bytes. This makes the destination move past the
end of the header and overwrite the receive state, including
fpdu_part_rcvd. A later callback can then use a negative fpdu_part_rcvd
value as a copy offset, which creates an OOB write.
Use the number of header bytes already received when calculating the
next copy length. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: save input state data before secpath resets
xfrm_input() stores the current xfrm_state in the skb secpath while it
continues receive-side processing. Some input paths can reset that secpath
before xfrm_input() has finished dereferencing the state.
Receive callback users such as VTI and XFRM interfaces can reset the
secpath. The VTI receive path does so before checking whether the packet
crosses network namespaces, while the XFRM interface path does so only for
cross-network-namespace packets. The XFRM_MAX_DEPTH error path can also
reset the secpath before the final drop callback reports the current
state's protocol.
If secpath_reset() drops the last state reference while the state is
concurrently deleted, xfrm_input() can still dereference the freed state
when selecting transport_finish() or reporting the drop callback protocol.
Save the state protocol on the stack while the state is still valid,
and use the already saved address family for transport_finish(). A larval
XFRM_STATE_ACQ state has no type, so retain nexthdr as its protocol. This
preserves the existing drop-path fallback while avoiding the post-reset
state dereferences without adding an extra state reference to every
received packet. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: libipw: reject too-short beacon and probe responses
libipw_process_probe_response() and the libipw_network_init() call it
makes assume the frame contains the full 36-byte beacon and probe
response prefix, but the ipw2100 and ipw2200 receive paths only
establish that a management frame carries the generic 24-byte
three-address header.
libipw_network_init() then computes the information element length as
stats->len - sizeof(*beacon)
stats->len is a u16 and sizeof() has type size_t, so the subtraction is
evaluated as size_t and wraps instead of going negative. Truncating
that to the u16 length parameter of libipw_parse_info_param() yields
65524 for a 24-byte beacon, and the parser then walks the receive
buffer as if it held almost 64 KiB of information elements, reading
past the allocation.
Reject the frame before any fixed field is touched.
Found by an AI-assisted review of length arithmetic in management frame
parsers. Verified with a KUnit case under Generic KASAN on arm64 under
QEMU; I do not have the hardware, so it is not tested on a real device. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: mcast: use copy-on-write RCU updates in ip6_mc_source()
pmc->sflist is read locklessly under rcu_read_lock() by
inet6_mc_check() during packet reception in the UDP and RAW
multicast receive paths.
ip6_mc_source() mutated psl->sl_addr and psl->sl_count in-place
when adding or removing a source filter. Additionally, when expanding
the filter buffer, newpsl was published via rcu_assign_pointer()
before writing the new source into the array.
Because 16-byte struct in6_addr writes are not atomic and array
shifting is not synchronized with RCU readers, concurrent readers in
inet6_mc_check() could read torn IPv6 addresses or observe
duplicated/missed source entries.
Fix this by switching ip6_mc_source() to copy-on-write RCU updates:
allocate and fully populate newpsl before publishing it via
rcu_assign_pointer(), and reclaim the old filter via kfree_rcu(),
matching ip6_mc_msfilter().
Also remove the now unused IP6_SFBLOCK macro. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: lan743x: fix RX checksum use-after-free
lan743x_rx_process_buffer() adds each non-first receive buffer to the
head skb's frag_list. On the last descriptor, lan743x_rx_trim_skb()
linearizes the head and frees the fragment skb metadata.
The checksum-success path then writes ip_summed through the local skb
pointer, which still points to the final fragment. This causes a
use-after-free write when a packet spans more than one receive buffer.
Set ip_summed on the surviving head skb instead. Multi-buffer receive
can occur after a live MTU increase because existing ring entries keep
their old buffer size until they are replenished.
A KUnit test invoking lan743x_rx_process_buffer() with a two-buffer
packet produced a one-byte KASAN use-after-free write before this change.
The same test passed after the change. The driver object also builds
with W=1. This was not tested on physical LAN743x hardware. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: xfrm: use full sockets in local error paths
xfrm6_local_rxpmtu() and xfrm6_local_error() dereference skb->sk as if it
always pointed at a full IPv6 socket.
That is not guaranteed. TCP SYN-ACK skbs can be owned by a
TCP_NEW_SYN_RECV request_sock while the output path itself is driven by the
full listener. If rerouting selects an IPv6 XFRM tunnel route with a lower
MTU, the local PMTU/error handling path can reach these callbacks with that
mini-socket still attached to the skb.
The callbacks then miscast the request socket as a full inet/IPv6 socket and
can read beyond the request_sock allocation when they access inet_sock or
ipv6_pinfo state.
Resolve the owner with skb_to_full_sk() in both callbacks and bail out when
no full socket is attached. This matches the surrounding XFRM IPv6 PMTU/error
logic, which already reasons about full sockets with skb_to_full_sk(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/iommu: Fix the overflow validation in iommu_tce_check_ioba
The commit b1af23d836f8 ("KVM: PPC: iommu: Unify TCE checking") unified
IOBA parameter checking across KVM and VFIO into iommu_tce_check_ioba().
While doing so, the passed in argument npages is ignored and constant
value '1' is used leaving out a possible overflow as the callers can
legitimately be using npages > 1 for H_STUFF_TCE or H_PUT_TCE_INDIRECT
cases.
Fix this by accounting for 'npages', checking for arithmetic overflow,
and verifying that the entire requested range (ioba - offset + npages)
does not exceed the table capacity 'size'. |

dma-buf/dma-fence: fix checking signaling bit for timeline and driver name v3
The patch "dma-buf: dma-fence: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference"
changed the check to test for the ops pointer instead of the signaled
bit to avoid a potential NULL dereference when the ops pointer has been
cleared.
The problem is now that the ops pointer is cleared only when neither the
release nor the wait callback is implemented and this isn't true for a lot
of dma_fence implementations yet. So those implementations lost the RCU
protection after signaling of the returned string resulting in potential
use after free.
Add the signaling check additional to the ops pointer check so that we
have both the protection against NULL dereference as well as the RCU
protection after signaling for the returned string.
v2: improve comments to note RCU protection and explain why we check
