A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of GTCO tablet/digitizer's version of the parse_hid_report_descriptor in drivers. An attacker with local access could use this flaw to create a specially crafted USB device inserted into the host to corrupt memory, trigger an out-of-bounds write during the generation of debugging messages, or possibly escalate the privileges of a process.

An out-of-bounds read flaw was found in the DVB USB subsystem of the Linux kernel. There was no boundary check applied to the array in struct technisat_usb2_state state->buf until the 0xff byte is encountered. If the byte is not encountered within the limit, an exposure of kernel data structure occurs. Data confidentiality and system availability are the highest threats with this vulnerability.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A use-after-free was found in the way the console subsystem was using ioctls KDGKBSENT and KDSKBSENT. A local user could use this flaw to get read memory access out of bounds. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality.

A race problem was seen in the vt_k_ioctl in drivers/tty/vt/vt_ioctl.c in the Linux kernel, which may cause an out of bounds read in vt as the write access to vc_mode is not protected by lock-in vt_ioctl (KDSETMDE). The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality.

An out-of-bounds (OOB) memory access flaw was found in the Linux kernel's eBPF due to an Improper Input Validation. This flaw allows a local attacker with a special privilege to crash the system or leak internal information.

A flaw was found in unrestricted eBPF usage by the BPF_BTF_LOAD, leading to a possible out-of-bounds memory write in the Linux kernel’s BPF subsystem due to the way a user loads BTF. This flaw allows a local user to crash or escalate their privileges on the system.

A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s ISDN over IP tunnel functionality in how a local user triggers the release_card() function called from l1oip_cleanup(). This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's adjust_ptr_min_max_vals in the kernel/bpf/verifier.c function. In this flaw, a missing sanity check for *_OR_NULL pointer types that perform pointer arithmetic may cause a kernel information leak issue.

An integer overflow flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s L2CAP bluetooth functionality in how a user generates malicious L2CAP_CONF_REQ packets. This flaw allows a local or bluetooth connection user to crash the system.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix u8 overflow By keep sending L2CAP_CONF_REQ packets, chan->num_conf_rsp increases multiple times and eventually it will wrap around the maximum number (i.e., 255). This patch prevents this by adding a boundary check with L2CAP_MAX_CONF_RSP Btmon log: Bluetooth monitor ver 5.64 = Note: Linux version 6.1.0-rc2 (x86_64) 0.264594 = Note: Bluetooth subsystem version 2.22 0.264636 @ MGMT Open: btmon (privileged) version 1.22 {0x0001} 0.272191 = New Index: 00:00:00:00:00:00 (Primary,Virtual,hci0) [hci0] 13.877604 @ RAW Open: 9496 (privileged) version 2.22 {0x0002} 13.890741 = Open Index: 00:00:00:00:00:00 [hci0] 13.900426 (...) > ACL Data RX: Handle 200 flags 0x00 dlen 1033 #32 [hci0] 14.273106 invalid packet size (12 != 1033) 08 00 01 00 02 01 04 00 01 10 ff ff ............ > ACL Data RX: Handle 200 flags 0x00 dlen 1547 #33 [hci0] 14.273561 invalid packet size (14 != 1547) 0a 00 01 00 04 01 06 00 40 00 00 00 00 00 ........@..... > ACL Data RX: Handle 200 flags 0x00 dlen 2061 #34 [hci0] 14.274390 invalid packet size (16 != 2061) 0c 00 01 00 04 01 08 00 40 00 00 00 00 00 00 04 ........@....... > ACL Data RX: Handle 200 flags 0x00 dlen 2061 #35 [hci0] 14.274932 invalid packet size (16 != 2061) 0c 00 01 00 04 01 08 00 40 00 00 00 07 00 03 00 ........@....... = bluetoothd: Bluetooth daemon 5.43 14.401828 > ACL Data RX: Handle 200 flags 0x00 dlen 1033 #36 [hci0] 14.275753 invalid packet size (12 != 1033) 08 00 01 00 04 01 04 00 40 00 00 00 ........@...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: highmem: fix checks in __kmap_local_sched_{in,out} When CONFIG_DEBUG_KMAP_LOCAL is enabled __kmap_local_sched_{in,out} check that even slots in the tsk->kmap_ctrl.pteval are unmapped.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/slub: add missing TID updates on slab deactivation The fastpath in slab_alloc_node() assumes that c->slab is stable as long as the TID stays the same. However, two places in __slab_alloc() currently don't update the TID when deactivating the CPU slab. If multiple operations race the right way, this could lead to an object getting lost; or, in an even more unlikely situation, it could even lead to an object being freed onto the wrong slab's freelist, messing up the `inuse` counter and eventually causing a page to be freed to the page allocator while it still contains slab objects. (I haven't actually tested these cases though, this is just based on looking at the code. Writing testcases for this stuff seems like it'd be a pain...) The race leading to state inconsistency is (all operations on the same CPU and kmem_cache): - task A: begin do_slab_free(): - read TID - read pcpu freelist (==NULL) - check `slab == c->slab` (true) - [PREEMPT A->B] - task B: begin slab_alloc_node(): - fastpath fails (`c->freelist` is NULL) - enter __slab_alloc() - slub_get_cpu_ptr() (disables preemption) - enter ___slab_alloc() - take local_lock_irqsave() - read c->freelist as NULL - get_freelist() returns NULL - write `c->slab = NULL` - drop local_unlock_irqrestore() - goto new_slab - slub_percpu_partial() is NULL - get_partial() returns NULL - slub_put_cpu_ptr() (enables preemption) - [PREEMPT B->A] - task A: finish do_slab_free(): - this_cpu_cmpxchg_double() succeeds() - [CORRUPT STATE: c->slab==NULL, c->freelist!=NULL] From there, the object on c->freelist will get lost if task B is allowed to continue from here: It will proceed to the retry_load_slab label, set c->slab, then jump to load_freelist, which clobbers c->freelist. But if we instead continue as follows, we get worse corruption: - task A: run __slab_free() on object from other struct slab: - CPU_PARTIAL_FREE case (slab was on no list, is now on pcpu partial) - task A: run slab_alloc_node() with NUMA node constraint: - fastpath fails (c->slab is NULL) - call __slab_alloc() - slub_get_cpu_ptr() (disables preemption) - enter ___slab_alloc() - c->slab is NULL: goto new_slab - slub_percpu_partial() is non-NULL - set c->slab to slub_percpu_partial(c) - [CORRUPT STATE: c->slab points to slab-1, c->freelist has objects from slab-2] - goto redo - node_match() fails - goto deactivate_slab - existing c->freelist is passed into deactivate_slab() - inuse count of slab-1 is decremented to account for object from slab-2 At this point, the inuse count of slab-1 is 1 lower than it should be. This means that if we free all allocated objects in slab-1 except for one, SLUB will think that slab-1 is completely unused, and may free its page, leading to use-after-free.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: VMCI: Use threaded irqs instead of tasklets The vmci_dispatch_dgs() tasklet function calls vmci_read_data() which uses wait_event() resulting in invalid sleep in an atomic context (and therefore potentially in a deadlock). Use threaded irqs to fix this issue and completely remove usage of tasklets.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tty: n_gsm: add sanity check for gsm->receive in gsm_receive_buf() A null pointer dereference can happen when attempting to access the "gsm->receive()" function in gsmld_receive_buf(). Currently, the code assumes that gsm->recieve is only called after MUX activation. Since the gsmld_receive_buf() function can be accessed without the need to initialize the MUX, the gsm->receive() function will not be set and a NULL pointer dereference will occur. Fix this by avoiding the call to "gsm->receive()" in case the function is not initialized by adding a sanity check.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tty: n_gsm: fix deadlock and link starvation in outgoing data path The current implementation queues up new control and user packets as needed and processes this queue down to the ldisc in the same code path. That means that the upper and the lower layer are hard coupled in the code. Due to this deadlocks can happen as seen below while transmitting data, especially during ldisc congestion. Furthermore, the data channels starve the control channel on high transmission load on the ldisc. Introduce an additional control channel data queue to prevent timeouts and link hangups during ldisc congestion. This is being processed before the user channel data queue in gsm_data_kick(), i.e. with the highest priority. Put the queue to ldisc data path into a workqueue and trigger it whenever new data has been put into the transmission queue. Change gsm_dlci_data_sweep() accordingly to fill up the transmission queue until TX_THRESH_HI. This solves the locking issue, keeps latency low and provides good performance on high data load. Note that now all packets from a DLCI are removed from the internal queue if the associated DLCI was closed. This ensures that no data is sent by the introduced write task to an already closed DLCI.

A flaw was found in the jbd2 module in the Linux kernel. An assertion failure can be triggered when a specific sequence of transactions and operations is performed due to incorrect synchronization, potentially resulting in a denial of service.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: host: Fix refcount leak in ehci_hcd_ppc_of_probe of_find_compatible_node() returns a node pointer with refcount incremented, we should use of_node_put() on it when done. Add missing of_node_put() to avoid refcount leak.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: dvbdev: adopts refcnt to avoid UAF dvb_unregister_device() is known that prone to use-after-free. That is, the cleanup from dvb_unregister_device() releases the dvb_device even if there are pointers stored in file->private_data still refer to it. This patch adds a reference counter into struct dvb_device and delays its deallocation until no pointer refers to the object.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: fix delayed allocation bug in ext4_clu_mapped for bigalloc + inline When converting files with inline data to extents, delayed allocations made on a file system created with both the bigalloc and inline options can result in invalid extent status cache content, incorrect reserved cluster counts, kernel memory leaks, and potential kernel panics. With bigalloc, the code that determines whether a block must be delayed allocated searches the extent tree to see if that block maps to a previously allocated cluster. If not, the block is delayed allocated, and otherwise, it isn't. However, if the inline option is also used, and if the file containing the block is marked as able to store data inline, there isn't a valid extent tree associated with the file. The current code in ext4_clu_mapped() calls ext4_find_extent() to search the non-existent tree for a previously allocated cluster anyway, which typically finds nothing, as desired. However, a side effect of the search can be to cache invalid content from the non-existent tree (garbage) in the extent status tree, including bogus entries in the pending reservation tree. To fix this, avoid searching the extent tree when allocating blocks for bigalloc + inline files that are being converted from inline to extent mapped.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ACPI: processor: idle: Check acpi_fetch_acpi_dev() return value The return value of acpi_fetch_acpi_dev() could be NULL, which would cause a NULL pointer dereference to occur in acpi_device_hid().

A vulnerability was identified in the Linux kernel's ext4 filesystem implementation due to a flaw in how it processes filesystem metadata. An attacker with local privileges could create a malicious ext4 filesystem image to trigger this issue. When the system attempts to mount this malicious image, the kernel performs an incorrect calculation. This action results in unpredictable system behavior.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. This use-after-free vulnerability exists within the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) subsystem. A local attacker with low privileges could exploit this flaw, leading to memory corruption. This could result in information disclosure or a denial of service (DoS) on the system.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: add EXT4_IGET_BAD flag to prevent unexpected bad inode There are many places that will get unhappy (and crash) when ext4_iget() returns a bad inode. However, if iget the boot loader inode, allows a bad inode to be returned, because the inode may not be initialized. This mechanism can be used to bypass some checks and cause panic. To solve this problem, we add a special iget flag EXT4_IGET_BAD. Only with this flag we'd be returning bad inode from ext4_iget(), otherwise we always return the error code if the inode is bad inode.(suggested by Jan Kara)

An uninitialized variable flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ext4 filesystem in the inode eviction path. A local user can trigger this issue by creating filesystem operations that cause inode allocation to fail before the i_flags field is initialized, followed by inode cleanup that attempts to read the uninitialized field. This causes the kernel to access uninitialized memory, resulting in unpredictable behavior and denial of service through a kernel crash.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in arch_prepare_kprobe(): where certain error conditions are not properly validated before dereferencing a pointer. Under specific circumstances, this can result in a NULL pointer dereference in kernel space. If triggered, the kernel may generate an oops or panic, causing the system to become unstable or crash.

A flaw was identified in the ext4 filesystem implementation in the Linux kernel where a malformed or improperly initialized boot loader inode could trigger a BUG_ON() condition inside the __es_tree_search() function. This occurs when the inode’s mode (imode) is an unexpected type and the code does not properly handle it, leading to a deliberate kernel bug assertion and invalid opcode execution. Under certain conditions, this flaw can be triggered by local filesystem operations, causing a kernel crash

A deadlock vulnerability was found in the ext4 filesystem in the Linux kernel. When manipulating extended attribute (xattr) blocks, a race condition in non-atomic bitfield updates can cause the mbcache entry state to become corrupted. This leads to an infinite loop in ext4_xattr_block_set() where the code repeatedly finds an xattr block for reuse but cannot use it due to an inconsistent reference count state, causing a system hang.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nvmet-tcp: add bounds check on Transfer Tag ttag is used as an index to get cmd in nvmet_tcp_handle_h2c_data_pdu(), add a bounds check to avoid out-of-bounds access.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: silence the warning when evicting inode with dioread_nolock When evicting an inode with default dioread_nolock, it could be raced by the unwritten extents converting kworker after writeback some new allocated dirty blocks. It convert unwritten extents to written, the extents could be merged to upper level and free extent blocks, so it could mark the inode dirty again even this inode has been marked I_FREEING. But the inode->i_io_list check and warning in ext4_evict_inode() missing this corner case. Fortunately, ext4_evict_inode() will wait all extents converting finished before this check, so it will not lead to inode use-after-free problem, every thing is OK besides this warning. The WARN_ON_ONCE was originally designed for finding inode use-after-free issues in advance, but if we add current dioread_nolock case in, it will become not quite useful, so fix this warning by just remove this check. ====== WARNING: CPU: 7 PID: 1092 at fs/ext4/inode.c:227 ext4_evict_inode+0x875/0xc60 ...

A flaw was found in the XFRM subsystem in the Linux kernel. The specific flaw exists within the processing of state filters, which can result in a read past the end of an allocated buffer. This flaw allows a local privileged (CAP_NET_ADMIN) attacker to trigger an out-of-bounds read, potentially leading to an information disclosure.

A race condition was found in the QXL driver in the Linux kernel. The qxl_mode_dumb_create() function dereferences the qobj returned by the qxl_gem_object_create_with_handle(), but the handle is the only one holding a reference to it. This flaw allows an attacker to guess the returned handle value and trigger a use-after-free issue, potentially leading to a denial of service or privilege escalation.

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel ipv4 stack. The socket buffer (skb) was assumed to be associated with a device before calling __ip_options_compile, which is not always the case if the skb is re-routed by ipvs. This issue may allow a local user with CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges to crash the system.

A flaw was found in the IPv4 Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) classifier in the Linux kernel.

A race condition was found on a PFN in the Linux Kernel, which can fall into the device memory region with the system memory configuration. Normal zone start and end PFNs contain the device memory PFNs as well, and the compaction triggered will try on the device memory PFNs and end up in NOP. This may lead to compromised Availability.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: intel-ish-hid: ipc: Disable and reenable ACPI GPE bit The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2023-52519 to this issue. Upstream advisory: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-cve-announce/2024030252-CVE-2023-52519-d53f@gregkh/T/#u

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: s390: fix setting of fpc register kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_fpu() allows to set the floating point control (fpc) register of a guest cpu. The new value is tested for validity by temporarily loading it into the fpc register. This may lead to corruption of the fpc register of the host process: if an interrupt happens while the value is temporarily loaded into the fpc register, and within interrupt context floating point or vector registers are used, the current fp/vx registers are saved with save_fpu_regs() assuming they belong to user space and will be loaded into fp/vx registers when returning to user space. test_fp_ctl() restores the original user space / host process fpc register value, however it will be discarded, when returning to user space. In result the host process will incorrectly continue to run with the value that was supposed to be used for a guest cpu. Fix this by simply removing the test. There is another test right before the SIE context is entered which will handles invalid values. This results in a change of behaviour: invalid values will now be accepted instead of that the ioctl fails with -EINVAL. This seems to be acceptable, given that this interface is most likely not used anymore, and this is in addition the same behaviour implemented with the memory mapped interface (replace invalid values with zero) - see sync_regs() in kvm-s390.c.

A vulnerability was found in netfilter/nf_tables componets of Linux Kernel allows an userspace to set timeouts for anonymous sets, which are not intended to be used this way. This could lead to unexpected behaviour or security issues.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. Improper management of the lifecycle of some nf_tables objects could result in consumption of all system memory. An attacker who can create nf_tables rules could use this to effect a Denial of Service.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vc_screen: move load of struct vc_data pointer in vcs_read() to avoid UAF After a call to console_unlock() in vcs_read() the vc_data struct can be freed by vc_deallocate().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ACPI: PPTT: Fix to avoid sleep in the atomic context when PPTT is absent Commit 0c80f9e165f8 ("ACPI: PPTT: Leave the table mapped for the runtime usage") enabled to map PPTT once on the first invocation of acpi_get_pptt() and never unmapped the same allowing it to be used at runtime with out the hassle of mapping and unmapping the table. This was needed to fetch LLC information from the PPTT in the cpuhotplug path which is executed in the atomic context as the acpi_get_table() might sleep waiting for a mutex. However it missed to handle the case when there is no PPTT on the system which results in acpi_get_pptt() being called from all the secondary CPUs attempting to fetch the LLC information in the atomic context without knowing the absence of PPTT resulting in the splat like below: | BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/semaphore.c:164 | in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 1, non_block: 0, pid: 0, name: swapper/1 | preempt_count: 1, expected: 0 | RCU nest depth: 0, expected: 0 | no locks held by swapper/1/0. | irq event stamp: 0 | hardirqs last enabled at (0): 0x0 | hardirqs last disabled at (0): copy_process+0x61c/0x1b40 | softirqs last enabled at (0): copy_process+0x61c/0x1b40 | softirqs last disabled at (0): 0x0 | CPU: 1 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/1 Not tainted 6.3.0-rc1 #1 | Call trace: | dump_backtrace+0xac/0x138 | show_stack+0x30/0x48 | dump_stack_lvl+0x60/0xb0 | dump_stack+0x18/0x28 | __might_resched+0x160/0x270 | __might_sleep+0x58/0xb0 | down_timeout+0x34/0x98 | acpi_os_wait_semaphore+0x7c/0xc0 | acpi_ut_acquire_mutex+0x58/0x108 | acpi_get_table+0x40/0xe8 | acpi_get_pptt+0x48/0xa0 | acpi_get_cache_info+0x38/0x140 | init_cache_level+0xf4/0x118 | detect_cache_attributes+0x2e4/0x640 | update_siblings_masks+0x3c/0x330 | store_cpu_topology+0x88/0xf0 | secondary_start_kernel+0xd0/0x168 | __secondary_switched+0xb8/0xc0 Update acpi_get_pptt() to consider the fact that PPTT is once checked and is not available on the system and return NULL avoiding any attempts to fetch PPTT and thereby avoiding any possible sleep waiting for a mutex in the atomic context.

We can re-use the existing MPTCP_WORK_CLOSE_SUBFLOW infra, explicitly checking that for the critical scenario: the closed subflow is the MPC one, the msk is not accepted and eventually going through full cleanup. With such change, __mptcp_destroy_sock() is always called on msk sockets, even on accepted ones. We don't need anymore to transiently drop one sk reference at msk clone time.

When evict inode <15>, the reference counting of the corresponding EA inode is decreased. When EA inode <15> is found by find_inode_fast() in __ext4_iget(), it is found that the EA inode holds the I_FREEING flag and waits for the EA inode to complete deletion. As a result, when inode <15> is being deleted, we wait for inode <15> to complete the deletion, resulting in an infinite loop and triggering Hung Task. To solve this problem, we only need to check whether the ino of EA inode and parent is the same before getting EA inode.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bonding: restore bond's IFF_SLAVE flag if a non-eth dev enslave fails syzbot reported a warning[1] where the bond device itself is a slave and we try to enslave a non-ethernet device as the first slave which fails but then in the error path when ether_setup() restores the bond device it also clears all flags. In my previous fix[2] I restored the IFF_MASTER flag, but I didn't consider the case that the bond device itself might also be a slave with IFF_SLAVE set, so we need to restore that flag as well. Use the bond_ether_setup helper which does the right thing and restores the bond's flags properly. Steps to reproduce using a nlmon dev: $ ip l add nlmon0 type nlmon $ ip l add bond1 type bond $ ip l add bond2 type bond $ ip l set bond1 master bond2 $ ip l set dev nlmon0 master bond1 $ ip -d l sh dev bond1 22: bond1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,MASTER> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master bond2 state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 (now bond1's IFF_SLAVE flag is gone and we'll hit a warning[3] if we try to delete it) [1] https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=391c7b1f6522182899efba27d891f1743e8eb3ef [2] commit 7d5cd2ce5292 ("bonding: correctly handle bonding type change on enslave failure") [3] example warning: [ 27.008664] bond1: (slave nlmon0): The slave device specified does not support setting the MAC address [ 27.008692] bond1: (slave nlmon0): Error -95 calling set_mac_address [ 32.464639] bond1 (unregistering): Released all slaves [ 32.464685] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 32.464686] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 2004 at net/core/dev.c:10829 unregister_netdevice_many+0x72a/0x780 [ 32.464694] Modules linked in: br_netfilter bridge bonding virtio_net [ 32.464699] CPU: 1 PID: 2004 Comm: ip Kdump: loaded Not tainted 5.18.0-rc3+ #47 [ 32.464703] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.16.1-2.fc37 04/01/2014 [ 32.464704] RIP: 0010:unregister_netdevice_many+0x72a/0x780 [ 32.464707] Code: 99 fd ff ff ba 90 1a 00 00 48 c7 c6 f4 02 66 96 48 c7 c7 20 4d 35 96 c6 05 fa c7 2b 02 01 e8 be 6f 4a 00 0f 0b e9 73 fd ff ff <0f> 0b e9 5f fd ff ff 80 3d e3 c7 2b 02 00 0f 85 3b fd ff ff ba 59 [ 32.464710] RSP: 0018:ffffa006422d7820 EFLAGS: 00010206 [ 32.464712] RAX: ffff8f6e077140a0 RBX: ffffa006422d7888 RCX: 0000000000000000 [ 32.464714] RDX: ffff8f6e12edbe58 RSI: 0000000000000296 RDI: ffffffff96d4a520 [ 32.464716] RBP: ffff8f6e07714000 R08: ffffffff96d63600 R09: ffffa006422d7728 [ 32.464717] R10: 0000000000000ec0 R11: ffffffff9698c988 R12: ffff8f6e12edb140 [ 32.464719] R13: dead000000000122 R14: dead000000000100 R15: ffff8f6e12edb140 [ 32.464723] FS: 00007f297c2f1740(0000) GS:ffff8f6e5d900000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 32.464725] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [ 32.464726] CR2: 00007f297bf1c800 CR3: 00000000115e8000 CR4: 0000000000350ee0 [ 32.464730] Call Trace: [ 32.464763] <TASK> [ 32.464767] rtnl_dellink+0x13e/0x380 [ 32.464776] ? cred_has_capability.isra.0+0x68/0x100 [ 32.464780] ? __rtnl_unlock+0x33/0x60 [ 32.464783] ? bpf_lsm_capset+0x10/0x10 [ 32.464786] ? security_capable+0x36/0x50 [ 32.464790] rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x14e/0x3b0 [ 32.464792] ? _copy_to_iter+0xb1/0x790 [ 32.464796] ? post_alloc_hook+0xa0/0x160 [ 32.464799] ? rtnl_calcit.isra.0+0x110/0x110 [ 32.464802] netlink_rcv_skb+0x50/0xf0 [ 32.464806] netlink_unicast+0x216/0x340 [ 32.464809] netlink_sendmsg+0x23f/0x480 [ 32.464812] sock_sendmsg+0x5e/0x60 [ 32.464815] ____sys_sendmsg+0x22c/0x270 [ 32.464818] ? import_iovec+0x17/0x20 [ 32.464821] ? sendmsg_copy_msghdr+0x59/0x90 [ 32.464823] ? do_set_pte+0xa0/0xe0 [ 32.464828] ___sys_sendmsg+0x81/0xc0 [ 32.464832] ? mod_objcg_state+0xc6/0x300 [ 32.464835] ? refill_obj_stock+0xa9/0x160 [ 32.464838] ? memcg_slab_free_hook+0x1a5/0x1f0 [ 32.464842] __sys_sendm ---truncated---

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: igb: Fix igb_down hung on surprise removal In a setup where a Thunderbolt hub connects to Ethernet and a display through USB Type-C, users may experience a hung task timeout when they remove the cable between the PC and the Thunderbolt hub. This is because the igb_down function is called multiple times when the Thunderbolt hub is unplugged. For example, the igb_io_error_detected triggers the first call, and the igb_remove triggers the second call. The second call to igb_down will block at napi_synchronize. Here's the call trace: __schedule+0x3b0/0xddb ? __mod_timer+0x164/0x5d3 schedule+0x44/0xa8 schedule_timeout+0xb2/0x2a4 ? run_local_timers+0x4e/0x4e msleep+0x31/0x38 igb_down+0x12c/0x22a [igb 6615058754948bfde0bf01429257eb59f13030d4] __igb_close+0x6f/0x9c [igb 6615058754948bfde0bf01429257eb59f13030d4] igb_close+0x23/0x2b [igb 6615058754948bfde0bf01429257eb59f13030d4] __dev_close_many+0x95/0xec dev_close_many+0x6e/0x103 unregister_netdevice_many+0x105/0x5b1 unregister_netdevice_queue+0xc2/0x10d unregister_netdev+0x1c/0x23 igb_remove+0xa7/0x11c [igb 6615058754948bfde0bf01429257eb59f13030d4] pci_device_remove+0x3f/0x9c device_release_driver_internal+0xfe/0x1b4 pci_stop_bus_device+0x5b/0x7f pci_stop_bus_device+0x30/0x7f pci_stop_bus_device+0x30/0x7f pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device+0x12/0x19 pciehp_unconfigure_device+0x76/0xe9 pciehp_disable_slot+0x6e/0x131 pciehp_handle_presence_or_link_change+0x7a/0x3f7 pciehp_ist+0xbe/0x194 irq_thread_fn+0x22/0x4d ? irq_thread+0x1fd/0x1fd irq_thread+0x17b/0x1fd ? irq_forced_thread_fn+0x5f/0x5f kthread+0x142/0x153 ? __irq_get_irqchip_state+0x46/0x46 ? kthread_associate_blkcg+0x71/0x71 ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30 In this case, igb_io_error_detected detaches the network interface and requests a PCIE slot reset, however, the PCIE reset callback is not being invoked and thus the Ethernet connection breaks down. As the PCIE error in this case is a non-fatal one, requesting a slot reset can be avoided. This patch fixes the task hung issue and preserves Ethernet connection by ignoring non-fatal PCIE errors.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Pointer may be dereferenced Klocwork tool reported pointer 'rport' returned from call to function fc_bsg_to_rport() may be NULL and will be dereferenced. Add a fix to validate rport before dereferencing.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Multiple Device (MD) driver, specifically within the RAID10 implementation. This vulnerability allows a local user to trigger a soft lockup, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS). The issue arises because the md/raid10 component lacks a limit on plugged bio (block input/output) requests during write flushing, causing the CPU to become unresponsive under heavy write operations.

A flaw was found in ACPICA in the Linux kernel. This vulnerability allows for a denial of service via a null pointer dereference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: PM: domains: fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup() When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it, otherwise the memory will leak over time. To make things simpler, just call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic at once.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: s390/diag: fix racy access of physical cpu number in diag 9c handler We do check for target CPU == -1, but this might change at the time we are going to use it. Hold the physical target CPU in a local variable to avoid out-of-bound accesses to the cpu arrays.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: md/raid5-cache: fix null-ptr-deref for r5l_flush_stripe_to_raid() r5l_flush_stripe_to_raid() will check if the list 'flushing_ios' is empty, and then submit 'flush_bio', however, r5l_log_flush_endio() is clearing the list first and then clear the bio, which will cause null-ptr-deref: T1: submit flush io raid5d handle_active_stripes r5l_flush_stripe_to_raid // list is empty // add 'io_end_ios' to the list bio_init submit_bio // io1 T2: io1 is done r5l_log_flush_endio list_splice_tail_init // clear the list T3: submit new flush io ... r5l_flush_stripe_to_raid // list is empty // add 'io_end_ios' to the list bio_init bio_uninit // clear bio->bi_blkg submit_bio // null-ptr-deref Fix this problem by clearing bio before clearing the list in r5l_log_flush_endio().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: Fix function prototype mismatch for ext4_feat_ktype With clang's kernel control flow integrity (kCFI, CONFIG_CFI_CLANG), indirect call targets are validated against the expected function pointer prototype to make sure the call target is valid to help mitigate ROP attacks. If they are not identical, there is a failure at run time, which manifests as either a kernel panic or thread getting killed. ext4_feat_ktype was setting the "release" handler to "kfree", which doesn't have a matching function prototype. Add a simple wrapper with the correct prototype. This was found as a result of Clang's new -Wcast-function-type-strict flag, which is more sensitive than the simpler -Wcast-function-type, which only checks for type width mismatches. Note that this code is only reached when ext4 is a loadable module and it is being unloaded: CFI failure at kobject_put+0xbb/0x1b0 (target: kfree+0x0/0x180; expected type: 0x7c4aa698) ...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: arm64: acpi: Fix possible memory leak of ffh_ctxt Allocated 'ffh_ctxt' memory leak is possible if the SMCCC version and conduit checks fail and -EOPNOTSUPP is returned without freeing the allocated memory. Fix the same by moving the allocation after the SMCCC version and conduit checks.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: hda: fix a possible null-pointer dereference due to data race in snd_hdac_regmap_sync() The variable codec->regmap is often protected by the lock codec->regmap_lock when is accessed. However, it is accessed without holding the lock when is accessed in snd_hdac_regmap_sync(): if (codec->regmap) In my opinion, this may be a harmful race, because if codec->regmap is set to NULL right after the condition is checked, a null-pointer dereference can occur in the called function regcache_sync(): map->lock(map->lock_arg); --> Line 360 in drivers/base/regmap/regcache.c To fix this possible null-pointer dereference caused by data race, the mutex_lock coverage is extended to protect the if statement as well as the function call to regcache_sync(). [ Note: the lack of the regmap_lock itself is harmless for the current codec driver implementations, as snd_hdac_regmap_sync() is only for PM runtime resume that is prohibited during the codec probe. But the change makes the whole code more consistent, so it's merged as is -- tiwai ]

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s SCSI driver component qla2xxx (used with FCP-2 devices). When the terminate_rport_io() function is invoked , the driver may exit cleanup before all outstanding I/O operations have returned. This can lead to a use-after-free condition when resources are freed while I/Os are still pending.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/cxgb4: Fix potential null-ptr-deref in pass_establish() If get_ep_from_tid() fails to lookup non-NULL value for ep, ep is dereferenced later regardless of whether it is empty. This patch adds a simple sanity check to fix the issue. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: icmp6: Fix null-ptr-deref of ip6_null_entry->rt6i_idev in icmp6_dev(). With some IPv6 Ext Hdr (RPL, SRv6, etc.), we can send a packet that has the link-local address as src and dst IP and will be forwarded to an external IP in the IPv6 Ext Hdr. For example, the script below generates a packet whose src IP is the link-local address and dst is updated to 11::. # for f in $(find /proc/sys/net/ -name *seg6_enabled*); do echo 1 > $f; done # python3 >>> from socket import * >>> from scapy.all import * >>> >>> SRC_ADDR = DST_ADDR = "fe80::5054:ff:fe12:3456" >>> >>> pkt = IPv6(src=SRC_ADDR, dst=DST_ADDR) >>> pkt /= IPv6ExtHdrSegmentRouting(type=4, addresses=["11::", "22::"], segleft=1) >>> >>> sk = socket(AF_INET6, SOCK_RAW, IPPROTO_RAW) >>> sk.sendto(bytes(pkt), (DST_ADDR, 0)) For such a packet, we call ip6_route_input() to look up a route for the next destination in these three functions depending on the header type. * ipv6_rthdr_rcv() * ipv6_rpl_srh_rcv() * ipv6_srh_rcv() If no route is found, ip6_null_entry is set to skb, and the following dst_input(skb) calls ip6_pkt_drop(). Finally, in icmp6_dev(), we dereference skb_rt6_info(skb)->rt6i_idev->dev as the input device is the loopback interface. Then, we have to check if skb_rt6_info(skb)->rt6i_idev is NULL or not to avoid NULL pointer deref for ip6_null_entry.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: skbuff: skb_segment, Call zero copy functions before using skbuff frags Commit bf5c25d60861 ("skbuff: in skb_segment, call zerocopy functions once per nskb") added the call to zero copy functions in skb_segment(). The change introduced a bug in skb_segment() because skb_orphan_frags() may possibly change the number of fragments or allocate new fragments altogether leaving nrfrags and frag to point to the old values. This can cause a panic with stacktrace like the one below.

A buffer underwrite vulnerability exists in the linux kernel in the function skb_under_panic in ip6mr_cache_report(), leading to an attacker, via crafting a payload, could result in damage to system availability and integrity.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/mlx5e: fix memory leak in mlx5e_fs_tt_redirect_any_create The memory pointed to by the fs->any pointer is not freed in the error path of mlx5e_fs_tt_redirect_any_create, which can lead to a memory leak. Fix by freeing the memory in the error path, thereby making the error path identical to mlx5e_fs_tt_redirect_any_destroy().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: md/raid10: fix null-ptr-deref of mreplace in raid10_sync_request There are two check of 'mreplace' in raid10_sync_request(). In the first check, 'need_replace' will be set and 'mreplace' will be used later if no-Faulty 'mreplace' exists, In the second check, 'mreplace' will be set to NULL if it is Faulty, but 'need_replace' will not be changed accordingly. null-ptr-deref occurs if Faulty is set between two check. Fix it by merging two checks into one. And replace 'need_replace' with 'mreplace' because their values are always the same.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: intel-ish-hid: Fix kernel panic during warm reset During warm reset device->fw_client is set to NULL. If a bus driver is registered after this NULL setting and before new firmware clients are enumerated by ISHTP, kernel panic will result in the function ishtp_cl_bus_match(). This is because of reference to device->fw_client->props.protocol_name. ISH firmware after getting successfully loaded, sends a warm reset notification to remove all clients from the bus and sets device->fw_client to NULL. Until kernel v5.15, all enabled ISHTP kernel module drivers were loaded right after any of the first ISHTP device was registered, regardless of whether it was a matched or an unmatched device. This resulted in all drivers getting registered much before the warm reset notification from ISH. Starting kernel v5.16, this issue got exposed after the change was introduced to load only bus drivers for the respective matching devices. In this scenario, cros_ec_ishtp device and cros_ec_ishtp driver are registered after the warm reset device fw_client NULL setting. cros_ec_ishtp driver_register() triggers the callback to ishtp_cl_bus_match() to match ISHTP driver to the device and causes kernel panic in guid_equal() when dereferencing fw_client NULL pointer to get protocol_name.

Calling kthread_stop before executing kthread's threadfn will return -EINTR. We can complete the release of memory resources in this state.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ice: Block switchdev mode when ADQ is active and vice versa ADQ and switchdev are not supported simultaneously. Enabling both at the same time can result in nullptr dereference. To prevent this, check if ADQ is active when changing devlink mode to switchdev mode, and check if switchdev is active when enabling ADQ.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference Klocwork tool reported 'cur_dsd' may be dereferenced. Add fix to validate pointer before dereferencing the pointer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iw_cxgb4: Fix potential NULL dereference in c4iw_fill_res_cm_id_entry() This condition needs to match the previous "if (epcp->state == LISTEN) {" exactly to avoid a NULL dereference of either "listen_ep" or "ep". The problem is that "epcp" has been re-assigned so just testing "if (epcp->state == LISTEN) {" a second time is not sufficient.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ACPI: processor: Check for null return of devm_kzalloc() in fch_misc_setup() devm_kzalloc() may fail, clk_data->name might be NULL and will cause a NULL pointer dereference later. [ rjw: Subject and changelog edits ]

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: x86/platform/uv: Use alternate source for socket to node data The UV code attempts to build a set of tables to allow it to do bidirectional socket<=>node lookups. But when nr_cpus is set to a smaller number than actually present, the cpu_to_node() mapping information for unused CPUs is not available to build_socket_tables(). This results in skipping some nodes or sockets when creating the tables and leaving some -1's for later code to trip. over, causing oopses. The problem is that the socket<=>node lookups are created by doing a loop over all CPUs, then looking up the CPU's APICID and socket. But if a CPU is not present, there is no way to start this lookup. Instead of looping over all CPUs, take CPUs out of the equation entirely. Loop over all APICIDs which are mapped to a valid NUMA node. Then just extract the socket-id from the APICID. This avoid tripping over disabled CPUs.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's iommu/amd/iommu_v2 component. A local attacker with low privileges could exploit a race condition during pasid unbinding when outstanding page faults exist. This vulnerability causes a reference count to incorrectly decrement to zero, leading to a memory leak and ultimately a Denial of Service (DoS).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/cma: Allow UD qp_type to join multicast only As for multicast: - The SIDR is the only mode that makes sense; - Besides PS_UDP, other port spaces like PS_IB is also allowed, as it is UD compatible. In this case qkey also needs to be set [1]. This patch allows only UD qp_type to join multicast, and set qkey to default if it's not set, to fix an uninit-value error: the ib->rec.qkey field is accessed without being initialized. ===================================================== BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in cma_set_qkey drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c:510 [inline] BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in cma_make_mc_event+0xb73/0xe00 drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c:4570 cma_set_qkey drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c:510 [inline] cma_make_mc_event+0xb73/0xe00 drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c:4570 cma_iboe_join_multicast drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c:4782 [inline] rdma_join_multicast+0x2b83/0x30a0 drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c:4814 ucma_process_join+0xa76/0xf60 drivers/infiniband/core/ucma.c:1479 ucma_join_multicast+0x1e3/0x250 drivers/infiniband/core/ucma.c:1546 ucma_write+0x639/0x6d0 drivers/infiniband/core/ucma.c:1732 vfs_write+0x8ce/0x2030 fs/read_write.c:588 ksys_write+0x28c/0x520 fs/read_write.c:643 __do_sys_write fs/read_write.c:655 [inline] __se_sys_write fs/read_write.c:652 [inline] __ia32_sys_write+0xdb/0x120 fs/read_write.c:652 do_syscall_32_irqs_on arch/x86/entry/common.c:114 [inline] __do_fast_syscall_32+0x96/0xf0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:180 do_fast_syscall_32+0x34/0x70 arch/x86/entry/common.c:205 do_SYSENTER_32+0x1b/0x20 arch/x86/entry/common.c:248 entry_SYSENTER_compat_after_hwframe+0x4d/0x5c Local variable ib.i created at: cma_iboe_join_multicast drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c:4737 [inline] rdma_join_multicast+0x586/0x30a0 drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c:4814 ucma_process_join+0xa76/0xf60 drivers/infiniband/core/ucma.c:1479 CPU: 0 PID: 29874 Comm: syz-executor.3 Not tainted 5.16.0-rc3-syzkaller #0 Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 01/01/2011 ===================================================== [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-rdma/20220117183832.GD84788@nvidia.com/

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cpufreq: amd-pstate: fix global sysfs attribute type In commit 3666062b87ec ("cpufreq: amd-pstate: move to use bus_get_dev_root()") the "amd_pstate" attributes where moved from a dedicated kobject to the cpu root kobject.

A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ip_vti (IPsec Virtual Tunnel Interface) implementation when transmitting IPv6 packets with the SFB qdisc attached. A local user with CAP_NET_ADMIN capability can trigger this issue by configuring an ip_vti interface with an SFB qdisc and sending IPv6 traffic, causing the socket buffer control block to be modified during packet enqueuing and subsequently accessed after potential freeing during session decoding. This results in slab use-after-free, leading to kernel panic or potential memory corruption.

A missing validation flaw was found in the Linux kernel null_blk driver's configuration handling. A local user with access to configfs can configure a null_blk device with queue_mode set to 1 (legacy I/O path), which is no longer supported, causing the driver to proceed without proper validation and triggering a kernel oops and denial of service through system crash.

A race condition was found in the Linux kernel's BPF cpumap implementation in the kthread lifecycle management. A local user can trigger this issue by running XDP redirect operations when the per-CPU kthread is stopped prematurely before processing queued frames, causing the cleanup code to find a non-empty ptr_ring and report warnings. This results in kernel warnings and denial of service through system instability.

A race condition was found in the Linux kernel Mellanox mlx5 network driver's traffic control offload flow management. A local user with privileges to configure traffic control flower filters can trigger concurrent flow deletion operations where the NOT_READY flag is checked before acquiring the necessary lock, allowing a workqueue task to concurrently remove the flow from the unready_flows list, which causes double-removal from the linked list and results in list corruption leading to denial of service via kernel crash or potentially memory corruption.

A race condition flaw was found in the Linux kernel SCSI target subsystem's LUN_RESET handling. When multiple remote initiator sessions send concurrent LUN_RESET commands, one session's reset can incorrectly drain commands from another session, causing the second session to receive a successful reset response even though its commands weren't cleaned up, which results in the initiator reissuing commands while the old ones are still executing and leads to command confusion and potential data integrity issues.

A memory leak flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IPMI System Interface driver in the initialization error path. A local user can trigger this issue by loading the ipmi_si module when initialization fails after allocating the si_sm structure but before registering the shutdown handler. This causes the allocated memory to never be freed, resulting in a permanent memory leak leading to resource exhaustion and denial of service.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Fix deletion race condition System crash when using debug kernel due to link list corruption. The cause of the link list corruption is due to session deletion was allowed to queue up twice. Here's the internal trace that show the same port was allowed to double queue for deletion on different cpu. 20808683956 015 qla2xxx [0000:13:00.1]-e801:4: Scheduling sess ffff93ebf9306800 for deletion 50:06:0e:80:12:48:ff:50 fc4_type 1 20808683957 027 qla2xxx [0000:13:00.1]-e801:4: Scheduling sess ffff93ebf9306800 for deletion 50:06:0e:80:12:48:ff:50 fc4_type 1 Move the clearing/setting of deleted flag lock.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/swap: fix swap_info_struct race between swapoff and get_swap_pages() The si->lock must be held when deleting the si from the available list. Otherwise, another thread can re-add the si to the available list, which can lead to memory corruption. The only place we have found where this happens is in the swapoff path. This case can be described as below: core 0 core 1 swapoff del_from_avail_list(si) waiting try lock si->lock acquire swap_avail_lock and re-add si into swap_avail_head acquire si->lock but missing si already being added again, and continuing to clear SWP_WRITEOK, etc. It can be easily found that a massive warning messages can be triggered inside get_swap_pages() by some special cases, for example, we call madvise(MADV_PAGEOUT) on blocks of touched memory concurrently, meanwhile, run much swapon-swapoff operations (e.g. stress-ng-swap). However, in the worst case, panic can be caused by the above scene. In swapoff(), the memory used by si could be kept in swap_info[] after turning off a swap. This means memory corruption will not be caused immediately until allocated and reset for a new swap in the swapon path.

The fab_scan_rp "scan.l" is used to record the port information and it is allocated in qla2x00_create_host(). However, it is not released in the error handling path "probe_failed". Fix this by freeing the memory of "scan.l" when an error occurs in the adapter initialization process.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xsk: fix refcount underflow in error path Fix a refcount underflow problem reported by syzbot that can happen when a system is running out of memory. If xp_alloc_tx_descs() fails, and it can only fail due to not having enough memory, then the error path is triggered. In this error path, the refcount of the pool is decremented as it has incremented before. However, the reference to the pool in the socket was not nulled. This means that when the socket is closed later, the socket teardown logic will think that there is a pool attached to the socket and try to decrease the refcount again, leading to a refcount underflow. I chose this fix as it involved adding just a single line. Another option would have been to move xp_get_pool() and the assignment of xs->pool to after the if-statement and using xs_umem->pool instead of xs->pool in the whole if-statement resulting in somewhat simpler code, but this would have led to much more churn in the code base perhaps making it harder to backport.

An out of bounds (OOB) memory access flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ipv6 network subsystem. This could allow a local attacker to crash the system or leak kernel internal information.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: md: raid1: fix potential OOB in raid1_remove_disk() If rddev->raid_disk is greater than mddev->raid_disks, there will be an out-of-bounds in raid1_remove_disk(). We have already found similar reports as follows: 1) commit d17f744e883b ("md-raid10: fix KASAN warning") 2) commit 1ebc2cec0b7d ("dm raid: fix KASAN warning in raid5_remove_disk") Fix this bug by checking whether the "number" variable is valid.

In the s390 VFIO-AP driver, memory allocated for the vfio_matrix_dev structure is never released during device cleanup. The release callback incorrectly uses dev_get_drvdata() to locate the object, but since it was never stored there, the function returns NULL and kfree() silently accepts it. The correct approach requires container_of() to retrieve the enclosing structure.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s USB Test and Measurement Class (usbtmc) driver. The driver did not properly validate the direction bit when handling ioctl calls for control messages with a length of zero. Under these circumstances, an incorrect direction can be submitted, leading to mismatches between the expected control direction and the bRequestType field.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ethtool: Fix uninitialized number of lanes It is not possible to set the number of lanes when setting link modes using the legacy IOCTL ethtool interface. Since 'struct ethtool_link_ksettings' is not initialized in this path, drivers receive an uninitialized number of lanes in 'struct ethtool_link_ksettings::lanes'. When this information is later queried from drivers, it results in the ethtool code making decisions based on uninitialized memory, leading to the following KMSAN splat [1]. In practice, this most likely only happens with the tun driver that simply returns whatever it got in the set operation. As far as I can tell, this uninitialized memory is not leaked to user space thanks to the 'ethtool_ops->cap_link_lanes_supported' check in linkmodes_prepare_data(). Fix by initializing the structure in the IOCTL path. Did not find any more call sites that pass an uninitialized structure when calling 'ethtool_ops::set_link_ksettings()'.

A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the IPv6 VTI (Virtual Tunnel Interface) implementation in the Linux kernel. When an IPv6 VTI device uses the SFB (Stochastic Fair Blue) qdisc, the control block (cb) field of an skb can be modified during packet enqueuing. The decode_session6() function then reads from this modified cb field, accessing freed memory (IP6CB(skb)->nhoff was not set for transmit path). This can lead to kernel crashes or potentially arbitrary code execution.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: openvswitch: reject negative ifindex Recent changes in net-next (commit 759ab1edb56c ("net: store netdevs in an xarray")) refactored the handling of pre-assigned ifindexes and let syzbot surface a latent problem in ovs. ovs does not validate ifindex, making it possible to create netdev ports with negative ifindex values. It's easy to repro with YNL: $ ./cli.py --spec netlink/specs/ovs_datapath.yaml \ --do new \ --json '{"upcall-pid": 1, "name":"my-dp"}' $ ./cli.py --spec netlink/specs/ovs_vport.yaml \ --do new \ --json '{"upcall-pid": "00000001", "name": "some-port0", "dp-ifindex":3,"ifindex":4294901760,"type":2}' $ ip link show -65536: some-port0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether 7a:48:21:ad:0b:fb brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff ... Validate the inputs. Now the second command correctly returns: $ ./cli.py --spec netlink/specs/ovs_vport.yaml \ --do new \ --json '{"upcall-pid": "00000001", "name": "some-port0", "dp-ifindex":3,"ifindex":4294901760,"type":2}' lib.ynl.NlError: Netlink error: Numerical result out of range nl_len = 108 (92) nl_flags = 0x300 nl_type = 2 error: -34 extack: {'msg': 'integer out of range', 'unknown': [[type:4 len:36] b'\x0c\x00\x02\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x0c\x00\x03\x00\xff\xff\xff\x7f\x00\x00\x00\x00\x08\x00\x01\x00\x08\x00\x00\x00'], 'bad-attr': '.ifindex'} Accept 0 since it used to be silently ignored.

A deadlock vulnerability was found in the md RAID5 cache (r5l) subsystem in the Linux kernel. In r5l_exit_log(), flush_work() is called while holding reconfig_mutex, which waits for disable_writeback_work to complete. However, r5c_disable_writeback_async() calls wait_event() which requires conf->log to be NULL, but that only happens after flush_work() returns, creating a deadlock.

A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's Ceph filesystem client. When iterating over session caps in ceph_iterate_session_caps(), the session->s_cap_lock is released temporarily, allowing another thread to remove the cap. If the cap is freed while the iteration continues, subsequent callback functions access stale memory, causing a use-after-free condition and potential kernel crash.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. An incorrect handling of the 'last_prim' value within the __inet_del_ifa() function during IP address deletion can be triggered by a local user. This memory leak leads to resource exhaustion, potentially causing a Denial of Service (DoS) on the system.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: x86/sev: Make enc_dec_hypercall() accept a size instead of npages enc_dec_hypercall() accepted a page count instead of a size, which forced its callers to round up. As a result, non-page aligned vaddrs caused pages to be spuriously marked as decrypted via the encryption status hypercall, which in turn caused consistent corruption of pages during live migration. Live migration requires accurate encryption status information to avoid migrating pages from the wrong perspective.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. This memory leak vulnerability occurs when a flow rule, forwarding packets from an internal port over a tunnel, is split and extra post-action rules are added. The int_port object's reference count is incremented but never decremented, leading to the object not being freed. This can result in a denial of service (DoS) due to memory exhaustion.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) core component. A local user with low privileges could trigger a Global Identifier (GID) entry reference leak when an Address Handle (AH) creation request fails. This resource leak could lead to system instability and a Denial of Service (DoS).

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's UDPLITE (UDP-Lite) implementation. A local user can exploit a null pointer dereference in the `__sk_mem_raise_allocated()` function by using the `IPPROTO_UDPLITE` protocol. This vulnerability can lead to a system crash, resulting in a denial of service (DoS).

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) component. This vulnerability occurs when a memory allocation function fails, leading to a null pointer dereference. A local attacker with low privileges could exploit this to cause the system to crash, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Check valid rport returned by fc_bsg_to_rport() Klocwork reported warning of rport maybe NULL and will be dereferenced. rport returned by call to fc_bsg_to_rport() could be NULL and dereferenced. Check valid rport returned by fc_bsg_to_rport().

A stack buffer overflow vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's AMD IOMMU driver. The parse_ivrs_acpihid() function uses sscanf() to parse the ivrs_acpihid kernel command-line parameter without specifying a field width limit. An overly long ACPI HID string can overflow the fixed-size acpiid buffer on the stack.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) SSIF module. A local user can exploit this vulnerability by repeatedly calling the `ssif_info_find()` function. This improper handling of memory allocation leads to a memory leak, which can result in a Denial of Service (DoS) due to system resource exhaustion.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's `igb` driver. When the `igb` module is loaded with Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) enabled on certain network adapters, and the SR-IOV initialization subsequently fails, the driver does not properly clean up allocated resources. A local user can exploit this improper cleanup by attempting to remove the `igb` module, which may cause the system to hang or crash, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS).

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A data race in the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) Pulse-Code Modulation (PCM) memory allocation helpers allows a local user to bypass sanity checks. This can lead to the allocation of more memory than intended, potentially resulting in a denial of service (DoS) or other memory corruption issues.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ixgbe network driver. On systems with more than 64 CPUs, XDP_TX operations can cause a kernel panic due to an array-index-out-of-bounds access. The ixgbe_xdp_locking_key variable can be incorrectly decremented to zero during ring reconfiguration, causing the driver to use raw CPU numbers instead of CPU % 64 for XDP ring indexing, leading to NULL pointer dereference.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's soundwire subsystem. The code responsible for managing device enumeration completion, which allows drivers to synchronize with soundwire devices, contains a defect. This issue can lead to memory corruption if drivers are still waiting for completion, as the system fails to signal all processes and uses an incorrect reinitialization function.

A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's QLogic qedi iSCSI driver. When the driver is removed via qedi_remove(), the SCSI host structure may be freed while recovery_work or board_disable_work are still running. The work handlers then access the freed qedi->shost structure, causing a use-after-free condition.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A local attacker with low privileges could exploit a memory leak in the `mlx5e_init_rep_rx` function within the `net/mlx5` module. This vulnerability occurs when memory is not properly released during an error handling path. Successful exploitation could lead to a Denial of Service (DoS) condition, making the system unresponsive.

A flaw was identified in the Linux kernel’s Mellanox mlx5 Ethernet driver (net/mlx5e) related to the cleanup order of neighbour information when handling offloaded IP tunnel encapsulation rules in ECMP (Equal-Cost Multipath) mode. In certain scenarios — such as unloading the eswitch device while an offloaded ECMP rule is still active — the representor neighbour data for the peer uplink may be cleaned up prematurely in the profile->disable callback before the intended profile->cleanup_tx callback. This premature cleanup can result in a use-after-free condition when subsequent code attempts to access the freed neighbour data, potentially leading to kernel faults

A race condition was identified in the Intel “igc” network driver in the Linux kernel. Under specific heavy traffic and timing scenarios, such as when the transmit queue times out (ndo_tx_timeout) and the adapter reset path is invoked concurrently with device teardown or reinitialization, the driver may mishandle transmit queue and interrupt state. This can result in unexpected kernel behavior including a kernel panic.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel net/mlx5e Ethernet driver’s mlx5e_ptp_open function. When memory allocation via kvzalloc_node() or kvzalloc() fails, previously allocated resources (c or cparams) were not properly freed, leading to a memory leak in the error path. An unprivileged local user interacting with the networking subsystem might trigger this condition, causing gradual memory consumption.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel qla2xxx SCSI driver. A static analysis tool reported that the array vha->host_str, sized to hold 16 characters, could be indexed with values outside its valid range, potentially leading to out-of-bounds writes. The root cause was the use of sprintf() without enforcing proper bounds checks. An unprivileged local user with access to trigger the affected driver logic may be able to cause a kernel crash or hang, resulting in a denial of service.

A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's iSCSI target subsystem. When the Time2Retain timer expires and an iSCSI session is being cleaned up, commands from recovery entries are freed after the session has already been closed. This leads to a NULL pointer dereference or use-after-free when attempting to release command resources.

An out-of-bounds array access was found in the USB Type-C DisplayPort altmode driver. When no compatible pin assignments are found, the code performs negative array indexing, causing a use-after-free or out-of-bounds read.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/efa: Fix wrong resources deallocation order When trying to destroy QP or CQ, we first decrease the refcount and potentially free memory regions allocated for the object and then request the device to destroy the object. If the device fails, the object isn't fully destroyed so the user/IB core can try to destroy the object again which will lead to underflow when trying to decrease an already zeroed refcount. Deallocate resources in reverse order of allocating them to safely free them.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ACPI Embedded Controller (EC) subsystem. When removing custom query handlers, a kernel oops can occur if the handler is still being executed in the EC query workqueue while the module containing the callback function is being unloaded. The fix ensures the workqueue is flushed before handler removal.

A flaw was addressed in the Linux kernel’s RDMA SRPT (SCSI RDMA Protocol Target) subsystem. When unregistering a MAD (Management Datagram) agent, the SRPT module previously performed a non-NULL check on the mad_agent pointer before invoking ib_unregister_mad_agent(). Under rare timing conditions—specifically, concurrent execution of srpt_add_one() and srpt_remove_one()—mad_agent may hold an error value that passes the non-NULL test. This can lead to a NULL pointer dereference and kernel crash when the RoCE driver unregisters an ib_device

A NULL pointer dereference was found in the QLogic qedf FCoE driver. In the error handling path of qedf_alloc_global_queues(), calling qedf_free_global_queues() when nothing was allocated causes a crash.

A memory leak was found in the AMD PMC driver's STB debugfs interface. When amd_pmc_send_cmd() fails, the allocated buffer is not freed, causing memory to leak on each failed operation.

A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel's device-mapper multipath implementation. A race condition exists between retrieve_deps() and multipath_message() when devices are added or removed. The retrieve_deps() function walks the device list without holding a lock while multipath_message() can modify the list, leading to use-after-free or memory corruption.

A null pointer dereference flaw was found in the hugetlbfs_fill_super function in the Linux kernel hugetlbfs (HugeTLB pages) functionality. This issue may allow a local user to crash the system or potentially escalate their privileges on the system.

A vulnerability was found in AMD SEV-SNP, where a malicious hypervisor can potentially break confidentiality and integrity of SEV-SNP on Linux guests by injecting interrupts. An attacker can inject interrupt 0x80, which is used by Linux for legacy 32-bit system calls, and arbitrarily change the value stored in EAX while a SEV VM is running.

An attacker can inject interrupt 0x80, which is used by Linux for legacy 32-bit system calls, and arbitrarily change the value stored in EAX while a SEV VM is running.

A flaw was found in sys_membarrier in the Linux kernel in sched/membarrier in how a user calls it at too high of a frequency. This flaw allows a local user to saturate the machine.

[REJECTED CVE] An issue was identified in the Linux kernel's netfilter subsystem related to nf_tables. The issue occurs when a positive value, such as NF_ACCEPT, is provided in the upper 16 bits of NF_DROP verdict parameters, which are expected to contain valid errno values (e.g., -EPERM). This improper input handling could lead to memory corruption, potentially allowing attackers to exploit the system.

A possible IO hang from sbitmap wakeup race was found in the Linux kernel. This may lead to compromised Availability.

A flaw was found in Intel network adapters in the Linux kernel, where untrusted virtualized network interfaces can remove MAC addresses set by the system. This flaw allows an attacker with sufficient privileges to cause a denial of service.
