| OS Command Injection vulnerability in Rapid7 InsightConnect Tcpdump Plugin on Linux allows authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary OS commands via the options or filter parameters due to insufficient input sanitization in shell command construction. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, sockmap: Fix af_unix null-ptr-deref in proto update
unix_stream_connect() sets sk_state (`WRITE_ONCE(sk->sk_state,
TCP_ESTABLISHED)`) _before_ it assigns a peer (`unix_peer(sk) = newsk`).
sk_state == TCP_ESTABLISHED makes sock_map_sk_state_allowed() believe that
socket is properly set up, which would include having a defined peer. IOW,
there's a window when unix_stream_bpf_update_proto() can be called on
socket which still has unix_peer(sk) == NULL.

Initial idea was to move peer assignment _before_ the sk_state update[1],
but that involved an additional memory barrier, and changing the hot path
was rejected.
Then a NULL check during proto update in unix_stream_bpf_update_proto() was
considered[2], but the follow-up discussion[3] focused on the root cause,
i.e. sockmap update taking a wrong lock. Or, more specifically, missing
unix_state_lock()[4].
In the end it was concluded that teaching sockmap about the af_unix locking
would be unnecessarily complex[5].
Complexity aside, since BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_CLS and BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_ACT
are allowed to update sockmaps, sock_map_update_elem() taking the unix
lock, as it is currently implemented in unix_state_lock():
spin_lock(&unix_sk(s)->lock), would be problematic. unix_state_lock() taken
in a process context, followed by a softirq-context TC BPF program
attempting to take the same spinlock -- deadlock[6].
This way we circled back to the peer check idea[2].

Summary of scenarios where af_unix/stream connect() may race a sockmap
update:
1. connect() vs. bpf(BPF_MAP_UPDATE_ELEM), i.e. sock_map_update_elem_sys()
Implemented NULL check is sufficient. Once assigned, socket peer won't
be released until socket fd is released. And that's not an issue because
sock_map_update_elem_sys() bumps fd refcnf.
2. connect() vs BPF program doing update
Update restricted per verifier.c:may_update_sockmap() to
BPF_PROG_TYPE_TRACING/BPF_TRACE_ITER

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: Bound MIDI 2.0 endpoint descriptor scans
The USB MIDI 2.0 endpoint parser has the same descriptor walking
pattern as the legacy MIDI parser. It validates bLength against
bNumGrpTrmBlock before reading baAssoGrpTrmBlkID[], but not against the
remaining bytes in the endpoint-extra scan.
A malformed device can therefore make later baAssoGrpTrmBlkID[] reads
consume bytes past the walked descriptor.
Reject zero-length and overlong descriptors while walking endpoint
extras. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netdevsim: zero initialize struct iphdr in dummy sk_buff
Syzbot reports a KMSAN uninit-value originating from
nsim_dev_trap_skb_build, with the allocation also
being performed in the same function.
Fix this by calling skb_put_zero instead of skb_put to
guarantee zero initialization of the whole IP header. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: sti: use managed regmap_field allocations
The regmap_field objects allocated at player init are never freed and
may leak resources if the driver is removed.
Switch to devm_regmap_field_alloc() to automatically limit the lifetime
of the allocations the lifetime of the device. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: hamradio: 6pack: fix uninit-value in sixpack_receive_buf
sixpack_receive_buf() does not properly skip bytes with TTY error flags.
The while loop iterates through the flags buffer but never advances the
data pointer (cp), and passes the original count (including error bytes)
to sixpack_decode(). This causes sixpack_decode() to process bytes that
should have been skipped due to TTY errors. The TTY layer does not
guarantee that cp[i] holds a meaningful value when fp[i] is set, so
passing those positions to sixpack_decode() results in KMSAN reporting
an uninit-value read.
Fix this by processing bytes one at a time, advancing cp on each
iteration, and only passing valid (non-error) bytes to sixpack_decode().
This matches the pattern used by slip_receive_buf() and
mkiss_receive_buf() for the same purpose. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: libertas: don't kill URBs in interrupt context
Serialization for the TX path was enforced by calling
usb_kill_urb()/usb_kill_anchored_urbs(), to prevent transmission before
a previous URB was completed. usb_tx_block() can be called from
interrupt context (e.g. in the HCD giveback path), so we can't always
use it to kill in-flight URBs.
Prevent sleeping during interrupt context by checking the tx_submitted
anchor for existing URBs. We now return -EBUSY, to indicate there's
a pending request. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ibm: emac: Fix use-after-free during device removal
The driver was using devm_register_netdev() which causes unregister_netdev()
to be deferred until the devres cleanup phase, which runs after emac_remove()
returns. This creates a use-after-free window where:
1. emac_remove() is called, which tears down hardware (cancels work, detaches
modules, unregisters from MAL)
2. emac_remove() returns
3. devres cleanup runs and finally calls unregister_netdev()
During step 3, the network stack might still process packets, triggering
emac_irq(), emac_poll(), or other handlers that access now-freed hardware
resources (dev->emacp, dev->mal, etc.).
Fix this by replacing devm_register_netdev() with manual register_netdev()
and calling unregister_netdev() at the beginning of emac_remove(), before
any hardware teardown. This ensures the network device is fully stopped and
unregistered before hardware resources are released.
The change is safe because:
- dev->ndev is assigned very early in probe (before any error paths that
could bypass emac_remove)
- platform_set_drvdata() is only called after successful registration, so
emac_remove() only runs for fully registered devices
- unregister_netdev() is idempotent and safe to call on any registered device |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: netem: fix queue limit check to include reordered packets
The queue limit check in netem_enqueue() uses q->t_len which only
counts packets in the internal tfifo. Packets placed in sch->q by
the reorder path (__qdisc_enqueue_head) are not counted, allowing
the total queue occupancy to exceed sch->limit under reordering.
Include sch->q.qlen in the limit check. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: reject short IPv4/IPv6 inputs in bpf_prog_test_run_skb
bpf_prog_test_run_skb() calls eth_type_trans() first and then uses
skb->protocol to initialize sk family and address fields for the test
run.
For IPv4 and IPv6 packets, it may access ip_hdr(skb) or ipv6_hdr(skb)
even when the provided test input only contains an Ethernet header.
Reject the input earlier if the Ethernet frame carries IPv4/IPv6
EtherType but the L3 header is too short.
Fold the IPv4/IPv6 header length checks into the existing protocol
switch and return -EINVAL before accessing the network headers. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
devlink: Release nested relation on devlink free
devlink relation state is normally released from devl_unregister(), which
calls devlink_rel_put(). This misses devlink instances that get a nested
relation before registration and then fail probe before devl_register() is
reached.
That flow can happen for SFs. The child devlink gets linked to its
parent before registration, then a later probe error calls devlink_free()
directly. Since the instance was never registered, devl_unregister() is not
called and devlink->rel is leaked.
Release any pending relation from devlink_free() as well. The registered
path is unchanged because devl_unregister() already clears devlink->rel
before devlink_free() runs. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: fix sleep-inside-lock in __smc_setsockopt() causing local DoS
A logic flaw in __smc_setsockopt() allows a local unprivileged user to
cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by holding the socket lock indefinitely.
The function __smc_setsockopt() calls copy_from_sockptr() while holding
lock_sock(sk). By passing a userfaultfd-monitored memory page (or
FUSE-backed memory on systems where unprivileged userfaultfd is disabled)
as the optval, an attacker can halt execution during the copy operation,
keeping the lock held.
Combined with asynchronous tear-down operations like shutdown(), this
exhausts the kernel wq (kworkers) and triggers the hung task watchdog.
[ 240.123456] INFO: task kworker/u8:2 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
[ 240.123489] Call Trace:
[ 240.123501] smc_shutdown+...

This patch moves the user-space copy outside the lock_sock() critical
section to prevent the issue. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
efi/capsule-loader: fix incorrect sizeof in phys array reallocation
The krealloc() call for cap_info->phys in __efi_capsule_setup_info() uses
sizeof(phys_addr_t *) instead of sizeof(phys_addr_t), which might be
causing an undersized allocation.
The allocation is also inconsistent with the initial array allocation in
efi_capsule_open() that allocates one entry with sizeof(phys_addr_t),
and the efi_capsule_write() function that stores phys_addr_t values (not
pointers) via page_to_phys().
On 64-bit systems where sizeof(phys_addr_t) == sizeof(phys_addr_t *), this
goes unnoticed. On 32-bit systems with PAE where phys_addr_t is 64-bit but
pointers are 32-bit, this allocates half the required space, which might
lead to a heap buffer overflow when storing physical addresses.
This is similar to the bug fixed in commit fccfa646ef36 ("efi/capsule-loader:
fix incorrect allocation size") which fixed the same issue at the initial
allocation site. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gfs2: prevent NULL pointer dereference during unmount
When flushing out outstanding glock work during an unmount, gfs2_log_flush()
can be called when sdp->sd_jdesc has already been deallocated and sdp->sd_jdesc
is NULL. Commit 35264909e9d1 ("gfs2: Fix NULL pointer dereference in
gfs2_log_flush") added a check for that to gfs2_log_flush() itself, but it
missed the sdp->sd_jdesc dereference in gfs2_log_release(). Fix that. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtlwifi: pci: fix possible use-after-free caused by unfinished irq_prepare_bcn_tasklet
The irq_prepare_bcn_tasklet is initialized in rtl_pci_init() and
scheduled when RTL_IMR_BCNINT interrupt is triggered by hardware.
But it is never killed in rtl_pci_deinit(). When the rtlwifi card
probe fails or is being detached, the ieee80211_hw is deallocated.
However, irq_prepare_bcn_tasklet may still be running or pending,
leading to use-after-free when the freed ieee80211_hw is accessed
in _rtl_pci_prepare_bcn_tasklet().
Similar to irq_tasklet, add tasklet_kill() in rtl_pci_deinit() to
ensure that irq_prepare_bcn_tasklet is properly terminated before
the ieee80211_hw is released.
The issue was identified through static analysis. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
platform/wmi: use generic driver_override infrastructure
When a driver is probed through __driver_attach(), the bus' match()
callback is called without the device lock held, thus accessing the
driver_override field without a lock, which can cause a UAF.
Fix this by using the driver-core driver_override infrastructure taking
care of proper locking internally.
Note that calling match() from __driver_attach() without the device lock
held is intentional. [1] |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm: Replace old pointer to new idr
Commit 5e28b7b94408 introduced a logical error by failing to replace the
newly generated IDR pointer to old id's pointer at the correct location
within the "change handle" logic; this resulted in the issue reported by
syzbot [1].
Specifically, the new IDR object pointer is intended to replace the original
id's pointer during the normal execution flow.
Additionally, an unnecessary conditional check for the ret exit path has
been removed.

KVM: Reject wrapped offset in kvm_reset_dirty_gfn()
kvm_reset_dirty_gfn() guards the gfn range with
if (!memslot || (offset + __fls(mask)) >= memslot->npages)
return;
but offset is u64 and the addition is unchecked. The check can be
silently bypassed by a u64 wrap.
The dirty ring backing those entries is MAP_SHARED at
KVM_DIRTY_LOG_PAGE_OFFSET of the vcpu fd, so the VMM can rewrite the
slot and offset fields of any entry between when the kernel pushes
them and when KVM_RESET_DIRTY_RINGS consumes them. On reset,
kvm_dirty_ring_reset() re-reads the values via READ_ONCE() and feeds
them straight back into this check; only the flags handshake is
treated as the handover, the slot/offset payload is taken on trust.
Crafting two entries
entry[i].offset = 0xffffffffffffffc1
entry[i+1].offset = 0
makes the coalescing loop in kvm_dirty_ring_reset() compute
delta = (s64)(0 - 0xffffffffffffffc1) = 63
which falls in [0, BITS_PER_LONG), so it folds entry[i+1] into the
existing mask by setting bit 63. The trailing kvm_reset_dirty_gfn()
call then sees offset = 0xffffffffffffffc1 and __fls(mask) = 63;
the sum is 0 in u64 and the bounds check passes.
That offset propagates into kvm_arch_mmu_enable_log_dirty_pt_masked()
unchanged. On the legacy MMU path -- kvm_memslots_have_rmaps() ==
true, i.e. shadow paging, any VM that has allocated shadow roots, or
a write-tracked slot -- it reaches gfn_to_rmap(), which indexes
slot->arch.rmap[0][] with a near-U64_MAX gfn. That is an
out-of-bounds load of a kvm_rmap_head, followed by a conditional
clear of PT_WRITABLE_MASK in whatever the loaded pointer points at.
The path is reachable from any process holding /dev/kvm.
Range-check offset on its own first, so the addition cannot wrap.
memslot->npages is bounded well below U64_MAX, so once offset <
npages holds, offset + __fls(mask) (with __fls(mask) < BITS_PER_LONG)
stays in range. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vsock/virtio: fix MSG_ZEROCOPY pinned-pages accounting
virtio_transport_init_zcopy_skb() uses iter->count as the size argument
for msg_zerocopy_realloc(), which in turn passes it to
mm_account_pinned_pages() for RLIMIT_MEMLOCK accounting. However, this
function is called after virtio_transport_fill_skb() has already consumed
the iterator via __zerocopy_sg_from_iter(), so on the last skb, iter->count
will be 0, skipping the RLIMIT_MEMLOCK enforcement.
Pass pkt_len (the total bytes being sent) as an explicit parameter to
virtio_transport_init_zcopy_skb() instead of reading the already-consumed
iter->count.
This matches TCP and UDP, which both call msg_zerocopy_realloc() with
the original message size. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: fix OOB write to userspace in sctp_getsockopt_peer_auth_chunks
sctp_getsockopt_peer_auth_chunks() checks that the caller's optval
buffer is large enough for the peer AUTH chunk list with
if (len < num_chunks)
return -EINVAL;
but then writes num_chunks bytes to p->gauth_chunks, which lives
at offset offsetof(struct sctp_authchunks, gauth_chunks) == 8
inside optval. The check is missing the sizeof(struct
sctp_authchunks) = 8-byte header. When the caller supplies
len == num_chunks (for any num_chunks > 0) the test passes but
copy_to_user() writes sizeof(struct sctp_authchunks) = 8 bytes
past the declared buffer.
The sibling function sctp_getsockopt_local_auth_chunks() at the
next line already has the correct check:
if (len < sizeof(struct sctp_authchunks) + num_chunks)
return -EINVAL;
Align the peer variant with its sibling.
Reproducer confirms on v7.0-13-generic: an unprivileged userspace
caller that opens a loopback SCTP association with AUTH enabled,
queries num_chunks with a short optval, then issues the real
getsockopt with len == num_chunks and sentinel bytes painted past
the buffer observes those sentinel bytes overwritten with the
peer's AUTH chunk type. The bytes written are under the peer's
control but land in the caller's own userspace; this is not a
kernel memory corruption, but it is a kernel-side contract
violation that can silently corrupt adjacent userspace data. |
