In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: zram: fix slot lock bit position on big-endian 64-bit The slot lock is a bit operation on the whole __lock word, which flags and ac_time alias as two u32s. On little-endian the lock bit lands in the position ZRAM_ENTRY_LOCK reserves in flags, so the aliasing works out. On 64-bit big-endian it lands in ac_time instead: with ZRAM_TRACK_ENTRY_ACTIME enabled, storing the access time from mark_slot_accessed() or slot_free() wipes out the held lock b…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ceph: properly decrypt filenames in vmalloc() buffers The fscrypt subsystem uses the scatterlist crypto API, inheriting its requirement that any buffers are in the linear mapping region. However, the messenger client uses kvmalloc() to create buffers for messages, which will occasionally place those buffers in the vmalloc() region when physical memory fragmentation doesn't permit a large enough kmalloc(). The various callers of ceph_fname_to_usr(…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: sony: clean up device list on probe failure sony_input_configured() adds some controllers to sony_device_list before HID core registers their input devices. input_register_device() can fail after the callback returns successfully. sony_probe() then observes that HID_CLAIMED_INPUT is clear and unwinds, but only stops the HID hardware. The devres-managed sony_sc is freed while its list node remains linked, so the next matching controller trave…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: SEV: Forcefully invalidate SNP VMSA if its backing gmem page is zapped Wire up a gmem_invalidate_range() call for SNP VMs, and use it to force vCPUs to reload/recheck their guest-provided VMSA if the backing gmem page is being invalidated, e.g. is being PUNCH_HOLE'd. Use the same core logic to handle invalidations as VMX does for the APIC-access page, as the two concepts are nearly identical: shove the physical address of a page into the vC…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: NFSD: Guard admin state-revocation walks with NFSD_NET_UP Writing to /proc/fs/nfsd/unlock_filesystem, or sending the NFSD_CMD_UNLOCK_FILESYSTEM or NFSD_CMD_UNLOCK_EXPORT netlink command, walks the NFSv4 client hash tables to revoke open state and cancel async COPY operations. All three handlers gate that walk on nn->nfsd_serv, but a listener added via portlist or netlink listener_set sets nn->nfsd_serv before any nfsd thread starts. nfsd_startup…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: NFSD: Prevent client use-after-free during export state revocation nfsd4_revoke_export_states() has the same use-after-free as nfsd4_revoke_states(): it drops nn->client_lock across revoke_one_stid() and the following read of clp->cl_minorversion, but the stateid reference it holds does not pin the client. A teardown racing the dropped lock can free the client while revoke_one_stid() still dereferences it. exportfs -u drives this path through N…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: NFSD: Prevent client use-after-free during close_lru reaping An nfs4_openowner left on nn->close_lru after its final CLOSE keeps its last closed stateid in oo_last_closed_stid, holding only a raw pointer to its nfs4_client. The laundromat reaps timed-out entries, drops nn->client_lock, and calls nfs4_put_stid(), which dereferences the client through cl_lock. Nothing pins the client across that window, so a concurrent force_expire_client() can fre…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: NFSD: Prevent client use-after-free during blocked-lock reaping A bare lock owner -- its only remaining reference a blocked lock on nn->blocked_locks_lru -- holds a raw pointer to its nfs4_client but no reference keeping the client alive. When the per-net laundromat reaps such a lock, freeing the nbl drops the owner reference held through flc_owner, and the final nfs4_put_stateowner() takes the client's cl_lock. Because the laundromat detaches th…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: fix division by zero in get_estimated_bw() get_estimated_bw() divides by link->dpia_bw_alloc_config.bw_granularity, which is zeroed by reset_bw_alloc_struct() and only populated once DP_TUNNELING_BW_ALLOC_CAP_CHANGED has been handled. link_dp_dpia_handle_bw_alloc_status(), the DPCD interrupt handler, calls get_estimated_bw() whenever DP_TUNNELING_ESTIMATED_BW_CHANGED is set, independently of whether DP_TUNNELING_BW_ALLOC_CAP_CHA…

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

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: usb-audio: fix OOB write in snd_usbmidi_us122l_output() The snd_usbmidi_us122l_output() picks a count of 2 on anything slower than high speed and never relates it to ep->max_transfer. The URB buffer holds exactly max_transfer bytes, so a device declaring a one byte bulk endpoint takes two bytes from snd_rawmidi_transmit(), and the memset that pads the rest computes 1 - 2 in int and wraps to SIZE_MAX. Only 0x800e and 0x800f are pinned to n…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: usbtv: keep device alive while ALSA card exists The ALSA PCM callbacks store the driver state in pcm->private_data. An open PCM file can outlive USB disconnect because usbtv_audio_free() uses snd_card_free_when_closed(). The disconnect path can then drop the V4L2 device reference and free struct usbtv before ALSA releases the substream, so a later close dereferences freed memory in snd_usbtv_pcm_close(). Take a V4L2 device reference for t…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb-storage: ene_ub6250: fix race between scan work and probe ene_ub6250_probe() calls usb_stor_probe2(), which starts the usb-storage infrastructure and schedules the delayed scan work. The driver then calls ene_get_card_type(), which sends an ENE command through ene_send_scsi_cmd() and the usb-storage bulk transfer helpers. Both the delayed scan work, through usb_stor_Bulk_max_lun(), and ene_get_card_type() use us->current_urb. The scan work…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: dwc3: clear forceRM when issuing EndTransfer The forceRM bit of the DEPCMD register controls the behavior of the EndTransfer command used to stop an active transfer. Older DWC3 programming guide revisions recommended setting forceRM=1 when issuing EndTransfer. Newer programming guide revisions recommend issuing EndTransfer with forceRM cleared. With forceRM=1 on DWC_usb31 v2.00a and v2.10a controllers, a transfer aborted through the ep_dequ…

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

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: typec: hd3ss3220: track VBUS enable state per consumer regulator_is_enabled() reports the aggregate regulator state, not whether this consumer holds an enable reference. If another consumer enables VBUS first, the driver can skip its own regulator_enable() call and later attempt to drop a reference it never acquired, triggering an unbalanced regulator disable warning. Track successful enable and disable calls locally. Keep the state unchang…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: typec: qcom-pmic-typec: disable cc_debounce_dwork on stop cc_debounce_dwork is queued from the set_cc() and start_toggling() callbacks, which run from TCPM's kthread worker. port_stop() returns before tcpm_unregister_port() destroys that worker. Flushing the worker during unregister may therefore run a callback which queues the delayed work after port_stop() has returned. The delayed work can then run after devres has freed pmic_typec_por…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: typec: qcom-pmic: cancel reset_work on stop pdphy_stop() disables IRQs but leaves reset_work pending. If the IRQ handler schedules it just before disable_irq(), the work runs after remove() frees the struct via devm. Call cancel_work_sync() after disabling IRQs to close the window. This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: typec: ucsi: displayport: Fix OOB altmode array index The UCSI displayport driver indexes the connector's port altmode array with the GET_CURRENT_CAM response after checking it is not 0xff. The port altmode array is UCSI_MAX_ALTMODES elements long. If the PPM returns an invalid GET_CURRENT_CAM response above UCSI_MAX_ALTMODES and not equal to 0xff, the kernel may crash with an array index OOB error. Update the UCSI displayport driver to ver…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: midi2: Fix null-pointer dereference in f_midi2_free_ep_reqs A null-pointer dereference occurs in f_midi2_free_ep_reqs() when attempting to clean up an endpoint that was never initialized. When configuring the MIDI 2.0 gadget via configfs and setting the block direction to SNDRV_UMP_DIR_INPUT, the initialization of the midi1_ep_out endpoint is explicitly skipped during the gadget bind phase (f_midi2_bind()). As a result, the usb_ep->…

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

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: f_midi2: fix use-after-free in string attribute show path f_midi2_opts_str_show() takes the string lock internally, but its callers dereference the opts->info.<field> pointer before calling it, outside the lock. This races with f_midi2_opts_str_store(), which frees the old string under opts->lock when the attribute is written concurrently, the show path can read a pointer that gets freed before the lock inside str_show() is even take…

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

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

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