In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: fix out-of-bounds tid_data access in BA notif mvmsta->tid_data was indexed by the TFD loop counter 'i' instead of the actual TID value 'tid'. This writes lq_color into a random tid_data slot unrelated to the BA entry. Since multi-TID blockack is not really in use, 'i' was always 0 and no harm was done. Add a out-of-bound check before accessing the array.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: preserve VFS inherited POSIX ACL mask The VFS initializes a child's POSIX ACL from the parent's default ACL and the requested creation mode. Do not mutate the parent ACL or overwrite the child's VFS-computed access and default ACLs afterwards. This preserves restrictive ACL_MASK entries and prevents SMB object creation from widening effective permissions.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: embed f2fs_gc_kthread in f2fs_sb_info Instead of allocating f2fs_gc_kthread dynamically, embed it in f2fs_sb_info. This simplifies lifetime management and prepares for fixing race conditions during teardown. - __sbi_store - remount|shutdown - f2fs_stop_gc_thread - access sbi->gc_thread - sbi->gc_thread = NULL - access sbi->gc_thread->f2fs_gc_task

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/pagemap: dma-unmap pages before handling migration errors drm_pagemap_migrate_unmap_pages() relies on the pages array to determine which pages require DMA unmapping. However, drm_pagemap_migration_unlock_put_pages() clears the array as part of its cleanup, leaving drm_pagemap_migrate_unmap_pages() with no valid page information if it is called afterward. Call drm_pagemap_migrate_unmap_pages() before drm_pagemap_migration_unlock_put_pages() s…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: i3c: master: Fix device_register() error path When device_register() fails in i3c_master_register_new_i3c_devs(), put_device() is called to drop the reference taken by device_register(). That drops the last reference, so the device's release callback i3c_device_release() runs and frees the i3c_device. Two problems follow from that: i3c_device_release() does WARN_ON(i3cdev->desc), so it warns because desc->dev->desc still points back at the des…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: fix maximum allowed access checks The DACL permission check looks for an ACE matching the current user and falls back to the Everyone ACE. It does not consider an Authenticated Users ACE, even though an authenticated session is a member of that well-known group. As a result, opening a file whose access is granted through S-1-5-11 can incorrectly fail with STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED. Treat an Authenticated Users ACE as a fallback entry alongside…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: rtw89: fix HE extended capability length check rtw89_mac_check_he_obss_narrow_bw_ru_iter() reads extended capability byte 10, but rejects only datalen values below 10. Byte 10 requires at least 11 bytes. Require datalen >= 11 before reading data[10].

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: greybus: audio: bound the topology section sizes against the fetched size gb_audio_gb_get_topology() fetches a topology blob of a module-supplied size, and gbaudio_tplg_parse_data() then walks it by adding the module-supplied size_dais, size_controls and size_widgets fields to form the control, widget and route section offsets. Those le32 sizes are never checked against the fetched blob, so a module reporting a small topology size but large secti…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: staging: octeon: add missing tasklet_kill in cvm_oct_tx_shutdown The TX cleanup tasklet can be scheduled by the watchdog IRQ handler to execute cvm_oct_tx_do_cleanup. There can be a pending tasklet in the queue which might run after the cvm_oct_remove() frees net_device structures, causing a use-after-free in cvm_oct_tx_do_cleanup() as it iterates cvm_oct_device[] which is an array of netdevice pointers. Add tasklet_kill() after free_irq() to ens…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: staging: octeon: add missing napi_disable in cvm_oct_rx_shutdown cvm_oct_rx_shutdown calls free_irq and netif_napi_del without disabling the napi instance first. As the free_irq only waits for completion of hard interrupt handlers, the napi poll function could still be active. If cvm_oct_remove proceeds to free the plat structure (which holds the NAPI instances), the active poll function will access freed memory, resulting in a use-after-free cra…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/bnxt_re: Validate udata before executing commands The destroy callbacks currently zero the udata output after tearing down driver resources. If the userspace access fails, uverbs preserves the uobject and allows the destroy callback to run again, even though the driver resource has already been freed. Call ib_no_udata_io() before teardown so udata failures are detected while the resource is still intact, then return success after teardown c…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: phy: renesas: phy-rcar-gen3-usb2: Fix devm action registration for disabled VBUS regulator devm_regulator_get_exclusive() initialises the regulator with enable_count = 1, requiring the consumer to disable it before release. The devm disable action was previously only registered when the caller explicitly requested enable, so when the regulator was left in its initial enabled state without an explicit enable call, the cleanup path skipped decreme…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: perf/x86/intel/pt: Fix stop/start with no update If pt_event_stop() is called without PERF_EF_UPDATE flag, then perf_aux_output_end() is not called. A subsequent call to pt_event_start() will call perf_aux_output_begin() again which violates the rule against nesting and triggers a WARNING in perf_aux_output_begin(). Originally, pt_event_stop() was never called without PERF_EF_UPDATE, because the only code paths to do so are from event overflow,…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pinctrl: bcm2835: Don't remove an unregistered GPIO chip If the devm_pinctrl_register() function fails, bcm2835_pinctrl_probe() calls gpiochip_remove() before gpiochip_add_data() has registered the GPIO chip. This means that upon failure the gpio_chip.gpiodev is NULL resulting in a null pointer dereference inside the gpiochip_remove() function. Remove the unnecessary function call to gpiochip_remove(). No GPIO cleanup is required because the G…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: regulator: tps6594: Fix device node reference leaks in multiphase loop In tps6594_regulator_probe(), the multi-phase configuration loop calls of_find_node_by_name() to find buck nodes by name, and of_get_parent() twice to navigate to the PMIC parent node. None of the acquired node references (np, intermediate parent, np_pmic_parent) are ever released via of_node_put(), causing a reference leak on every loop iteration. Additionally, of_find_node_…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: remoteproc: qcom_wcnss: Fix handling the lack of PD regulators in v3 The changes introduced to handle single power domain platforms have swapped the info pointer increment from num_pd_vregs to num_pds, which would shift the info pointer past the end of the array for pronto-v3, which does not list power domain regulators in vregs. This showed up as a difference between GCC- and LLVM-compiled kernels on SDM632 devices, where only with LLVM one wou…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ath11k: cap out-of-range rx MCS instead of leaving bogus rate ath11k can receive HT/VHT/HE frames whose reported MCS is above the maximum that can be expressed in the corresponding mac80211 rate space (e.g. an HE frame reported with MCS 12, while HE tops out at MCS 11). The frame itself is valid and decodes correctly, but for such a frame ath11k_dp_rx_h_rate() leaves rx_status->rate_idx set to the out-of-range value and never assigns rx_st…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Disallow interpreter fallback for BPF_ADDR_PERCPU insn The BPF_MOV64_PERCPU_REG insn requires JIT to emit native code to for 'dst_reg = src_reg + <percpu_base_off>'. However, the interpreter ignores the 'off' at its ALU64_MOV_X label. The 'off' indicates the insn is BPF_MOV64_PERCPU_REG insn. Then, when the interpreter loads memory from the register, it will hit a page fault. [ 2.545572] BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: fff…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: fix circular lock dependency in ext4_ext_migrate Move iput(tmp_inode) after ext4_writepages_up_write() to avoid a circular lock dependency between s_writepages_rwsem and sb_internal (freeze protection). The deadlock scenario: CPU0 (EXT4_IOC_MIGRATE) CPU1 (orphan cleanup during mount) ---- ---- ext4_ext_migrate() ext4_writepages_down_write() s_writepages_rwsem (write) …

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: skip extra isize expansion during mount to prevent deadlock ext4_try_to_expand_extra_isize() is called from __ext4_mark_inode_dirty() while holding an active jbd2 handle. During mount (!SB_ACTIVE), the expand path may move xattrs to external blocks and release ea_inodes via iput(). When !SB_ACTIVE, iput() calls write_inode_now() which acquires s_writepages_rwsem, creating a circular lock dependency: s_writepages_rwsem --> jbd2_handle -…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/core: Fix potential use after free in uverbs_free_dmah() When accessing a dmah via the netlink path the only synchronization mechanism for the said dmah is rdma_restrack_get(). Currently, rdma_restrack_del() is invoked at the end of uverbs_free_dmah(), which is too late, since by that point vendor-specific resources associated with the dmah might already be freed. This can leave a short window where the dmah remains accessible through restra…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: arm64: RSI: fix field-spanning write warning in attestation token init The challenge is passed in registers a1 through a8. However, copying to &regs.a1 makes FORTIFY treat the destination as the single a1 field, resulting in a field-spanning write warning. [1] Overlay the SMCCC register structure with an RSI-specific argument layout and copy the challenge into an explicit 64-byte array. This keeps the existing a1-a8 argument encoding while givin…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: PCI/pwrctrl: tc9563: Fix parsing the integrated Ethernet MAC Endpoint node DSP3 has an integrated Ethernet MAC Endpoint which has its own set of config registers for configuring settings such as ASPM. The Endpoint device has two physical functions and those two functions share the same settings. Parse the Endpoint node under DSP3 instead of parsing both functions. The existing parsing logic also has one OOB issue as parsing both functions will …

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/efa: Fix PBL chunk length computation On register MR, when creating the PBL, if it's an indirect PBL we create a chunk list to hold the PBL pages pointers. Each chunk is 4KB in size and can hold 510 addresses (EFA_PTRS_PER_CHUNK) and has a 12-byte control buffer at the end of it holding the next chunk's pointer and its length. If the PBL number of pages is a multiple of EFA_PTRS_PER_CHUNK, the calculated last chunk length is wrongly compute…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: clk: eswin: Zero-initialize stack-allocated clk_init_data eswin_clk_register_pll() and eswin_register_clkdiv() declare a struct clk_init_data on the stack and only initialize some of its fields (parent_data respectively parent_hws). clk_core_populate_parent_map() checks parent_names first and parent_data second before falling back to parent_hws, so leftover stack garbage in the uninitialized fields hijacks parent resolution and the clk core deref…
